    Strictly a model play, I have Suns +5.5 at home without Booker. And hopefully, they won't want to get embarrassed on ESPN.

    Is home team's national TV appearance a parameter of your model as well? Solid start and good luck.

    No not at all, I just threw that second sentence in for fun once I saw game was on ESPN. You can ignore it and just focus on first sentence.

    They have a chance, although as of this second they are my 10th rated Western team. That is subject to change though of course.

    You think bulls ML have good value? People don’t understand Denver isn’t a good road team - it’s been like this for years ...

    Ok, Let me try another one. Comparing with last season, did you actually twist your model and take into account this season's rule change, less defense and faster pace?

    Too close for me, I get Denver 76% (-317). I would need closer to +400 to consider Chicago.

    Pace is a component yes. That is a huge reason why I am 10-1 on totals so far (Probably all Overs although I'd have to double check).

    what about the bulls not being a good team no matter where they play?

    I am asking this because I did poorly so far and it seems things have changed a lot. Not just totals, seems some teams might be more adapted to the changes or even we could say the changes favor their style, giving them an edge to cover the spread.

    LBJ has made the finals the last 6 or 7 years. Making the playoffs will be step 1 of the King's systematic strategy so yes the Lakers will def make the playoffs. They will also def win tonight, as the fire has been lit. Can you feel it ? If you cap on feel than you can feel it. If not, you in the wrong biz or you a stat man. With that said, does a handicapper play the game hard tonight or standard ? 5 unit play ? Money Line ? These are very valid and important decisions. In my opinion, this is an example of a game to pound. If you lose, don't TILT but be willing to add that money back to your roll via work. Take the loss and reload out of pocket from hard work and if you can do that than you can anything !

    I thought the Spurs looked like horse shit last game out. Suns +7 in PHX seems like a really good play. I just can't envision them getting blownout at home by an avg team like the SAS.

    After listening to the podcast it confirms

    1 He is 10-1 on Over/Unders this year
    2 Every total play has been an over
    3 His only loss this year was on Oct 22 Pacers/T Wolves (Over 227)
    4 When LT Profits released an Over pick only twice did the Over pick go the opposite direction on Pinnacle
    5 He has only released 3 Overs in the last week compared to 8 in the first week and half of the season
    6 It seems LT was ahead of the curve on the overs and now the books are releasing sharper Over/Unders. Hence now he is releasing more point spread picks

    A long-winded way of saying books have adjusted totals upward. And sadly, very accurate.

    Pinnacle, around 1pm, they allow you to go down a few points , originally it was around 7.5 but I paid more for a lower spread.
