Nuggets don't lose at home. Suns are done and finished. Easy money.

Another strange thing about Phoenix was the situation with Crowder. He wanted out because Cam Johnson took his spot, then they proceed to get rid of both of them.

Been documented that it cost the Suns way too much to acquire Durant.

Booker/Durant need to play perfect for Suns to win. And Ayton has no answer for Jokic.

Haha, good one. I like Stephen A Smith's take on Jokic: "Guy doesn't jump over a phone book."

But he is literally taking Ayton to school this series. Tuition cost for Ayton = $25,000.

Fair point of view.

If Paul is out again, tho...I think the # will be very short. Like Phx -1.5. Denver looks decidedly better here.

a Booker prop is probably a bet for game 6

**bjb7223** · 05-10-23, 09:10 PM

Phoenix Suns rule Chris Paul out for Game 6, Deandre Ayton questionable

Thank you, BJ. This is great info.

2-unit play for me: Denver (gm6) +3.

Here is my logic:
1) Paul being Out is huge. People don't like Paul, but the dropoff is huge. And I know PHX won games 3/4.
2) I mentioned that this is setting up as a Homer series. 5-0 SU/ATS to the home team so far. I view that as a crutch. People will bet the Home team and feel like they're on the sharp side b/c they're riding the streak.
3) See points 1/2. Denver has the upper hand in this series, Phx performed in gms 3/4. Given the Suns' injury report, this line is too fat. I mentioned that I thought it would short, like -1.5 if Paul is ruled OUT. Feel very good about the Denver line value here.

**ChuckyTheGoat** · 05-10-23, 11:31 PM

Adding: 1-unit: DEN moneyline (gm6) +133.

...Feel very good about this. We're clearly getting the better team at a dog price.

Mentioned above why I don't think the line has been adjusted correctly. More to it than just backing the Home team in a homer series.

Hmm. Enjoy. Wonder what the ATS is this year in playoffs with major players being out?

Good question. I really think it depends on the individual player:

*I posted in the Milw/MIA threads that I didn't mind Herro getting injured. The oddsmaker made the Heat a bigger dog...but in my mind the Heat rotation improved b/c Herro takes a lot of shots. Heat have had success post-Herro.

*I view Paul as an efficient player, even at an advanced age. I anticipate the Suns struggling to win here without Paul.

I know I'm going against trends here. Homer series. Denver hasn't won at Phx all year, etc.

**ChuckyTheGoat** · 05-11-23, 05:28 PM

Setting up to hold very good BTCL value on the Nugget play.

Don't really like any of the other 3 games.
*Celtics: ready to respond? Horford can't shoot any worse.

Good luck. Ayton is out and I'm still seeing-2. Does Denver have the balls to go in and get this done?

Jokic should be all over Landale like PO69 on a jelly donut.
I'm seeking out Jokic triple/double props as we speak.

I'm hearing Murray is aching a little, the potential is there for a couple of extra assists for Joker
Yeah, I'm liking me a little triple/double action tonight.

Not sold on Alton out mean suns lose

this might b going 7 as well

Thanks. Yes, Denver looks really good to me here.

Wow, extended minutes to Jock Landale. Jokic will take advantage. As I reference above, the Home/Road trend is just a crutch here.

**johnnyvegas13** · 05-11-23, 05:41 PM

Careful here chuck

True, but KD can't defend Porter, Commissioner Gordon, and The Joker.
Booker is a guard, he can't guard pivot men, that's not his job man.

The one thing every mother loves to hear from their boys.

"Sorry I can't take you out to a fancy brunch mom, I realize you carried me around in your belly for nine months, and after that bathe, fed, and clothed me for another five years, but mom, it's the NBA, let's do Mother's Day some other time"

just proves how very small Ayton is to the Suns performing well.... he is SOFT

he scored 12 points in the last 2 PHX home game wins.

**Goat Milk** · 05-11-23, 06:30 PM

Don't see PHX winning this series even if they somehow win this game

**bjb7223** · 05-11-23, 09:13 PM

Ayton just gets in the way, I don't think they'll miss him tonight.
