    Who's Got Enough Stones To Bet The Phoenix Suns Tonight?

    They're sitting at 0-3, having already lost 2 of the games by over 40 points. Worse yet, they let Lonzo light 'em up on their home court in the other loss. Their best player is tweeting that he wants to be traded. Oh yeah, they just fired their coach.

    Only contrarians win in the diabolical world of sports gambling. I'll take the the desperate SUNS +2, against a Sacto team playing their 3rd road game in 4 nights.

    I'll also play GOLDEN STATE -11-, looking to quickly snap out of an early season slump.

    PHX +2
    G ST -11.5

    As always, best of luck
    Harry

    Good call Harry this ones on my radar too, but wait until closer to game time so the squares can give us a better number. +120 dimes reduced and would not be surprised if it’s 130 by tip.

    Yeah, maybe Suns will play better under interim coach Jay Triano. I have a lot of respect for Triano. Though I have no idea if the players respect him.

    Bledsoe sent home for crying and feeling sorry for himself because he hasn’t been traded yet.. Not sure if it helps them or makes situation even worse.. Team is a mess.. Bol on your wager Harry

    Suns gm flat out said bledsoe won't ve with them going forward. Probably won't play again until they find a trade.

    I do to but man what does it say about a team to be underdogs at home vs the kings.

    Agree there both still young though Suns got some talent espically if Ulis can step up and give them something in place of Bledsoe it's going to take time obv, but Tyson Chandler looking super old not even half the player he was 2-3 years ago....The team i really am liking so far and there only get better is the Twolves i think they can be a top 4-5 in the Western Conference this year i like them more then OKC. Even though in all reality that means nothing since there are only 3 teams that have a shot to win the title like every year.

    This might be the exception to the rule of taking the team that fires their coach during season. Suns are that bad.

    Last time this came up was Houston ??, when they kicked McHale to the curb. I layed into that game like 4x.
    Those bunch of pussies played like shit until late 4th Q making a run. As 7 point faves think they lost in OT.

    Yeah Bledsoe drama makes this a no bet for me. Star player tweeting crazy and balling out to attract better trade destination was part of my thought process here.

    First rule of gambling? Never spend money where you haven't made it. 2nd rule... Don't bet on bad teams.

    The Suns are a fukking train wreck. Why put good money on a bad team? Could they catch fire and win tonight? Maybe but why take a chance?

    You raise a good point, Mac.....with a good clip to back it up. My wager is rather small and mainly for amusement purposes. For a degen like myself, it's too unique a situation not to make a prediction.

    First rule there is there is no rule on who/when to bet on a game or team if you have that mind set your leaving $$$ out there, Just cause a good team is playing a bad team does not mean that the bad team can't cover the spread, that's why there's a ML/Spread bets. What really cracks me up not saying (you) do this but are people who say this team lost to this team or this team won against them so theres NO WAY they can beat them shit has me rolling if your reading this and your saying well i kinda do that...STOP BETTING..... Everyone has a different method or some "system" they use or w/e. The name of the game is making money no matter how you do it. Good money management/fewer bets is a + for starters, it's like when your trying to lose weight the first thing you should do is start by drinking water everyday instead of pop/soda it's a good start in the right direction!

    They just seem stuck. I think their big mistake was lack of leadership for a young team. Probably why Watson was canned.

    Good looking plays there OP.

    Dropping Bledsoe is addition by subtraction. Will be a great game. Suns will give a spirited effort for the first time this season. I expect Mike James to have a big game.

    Their offensive execution out of the gates night & day better than what it was under Watson. Triano has been around the game a long time, not just as a player.

    Lack of talent catching up to them in this game now.
