halftime plays

[ddubs]

How the hell does Dal hit 52 points at 1/2 shooting 39%? Unreal.

Gonna back a rested home team to come back strong and keep this close.

Bos-4 x1

dal/bos

dal/bos

if these two can start shooting about 42-43% instead of 38% this game should easily go over 104.5 for 2 units.

I'll take Dallas again +4.5....they still haven't shot the ball well yet. 2 units

game 1-1...........-0.2

tonight 5-4...........-0.1

Dallas/Boston OVER 104.5 1.5 units

Boston is down big because they are shooting crap. Dallas doesn't defend you, they outscore you. Dallas is pretty much on target with what they do pointwise, but are only shooting 40%. Boston way down in the 30% range. Looking for a lot of scoring and 3 point shots as Boston tries to make their way back into it. I like this over because Boston is going to do their best to get back in it and Dallas should pace them for the most part.

Magic -3 over Indiana 1 unit

Indiana has absolutely folded in 2nd halves lately. I'll look for the same here against Orlando. Orlando hasn't even heated up from 3 point land yet as they are only 1-8. They are shooting a high percentage, 54% from the field, but once it starts raining 3s, Indy is done. Orlando should be able to pull away at home.

 

[ddubs]

Not that I'm a NBA guru, but this is the 3rd road game in 4 nites for Dallas, not to mention 2nd of back to back. I can't back Dallas in this situation, and don't like the Over if fatigue sets in a run-and-gun team.

i gotta fess up.........i took the knicks for 1 unit.....i usually get tempted by the home team that gets blown out in the first half.

Also went under 95.5 for 1.


game 1-1...............-0.1

tonight 6-5...............-0.2

 

[nighthorse]

ya gotta work pretty hard to look at all the stats, make a decision, place the bets and write up something about your picks and season it with a little reasoning all within about 20 minutes.....usually, the less thinking i do, the better....we shall see.

50/130 Bos-4 and over 104.5

 

[ddubs]

Damn! Was I way off on Boston It's getting ugly at the Fleet Center.

gs/det

gs/det

I don't know how many times i've seen a gs game where both teams shot over 50% 46-86 combined, 19-24 ft's and 7-14 from 3. fun game.

With GS having a great shooting first half, i usually count on them having an extended cold streak at some point and taking the under. Given that we have Detroit, a good Defensive team..that is more likely than normal. Going under 104.5 for 3 units....if I'm wrong, i'll probably be wrong by 15 pts.

game 1-0............+3.0


tonight 7-5............+2.8

 

[Dragon]

Looks like the Celtics are doing their very best to screw the over as usual. The difference in the level of play between the eastern and western conference is remarkable. The western conference is so superior it's a joke. Whoever represents the eastern conference in the nba finals is going to be severely punked by someone from the west.


Boston SUCKS FG - .305, FT - .667, 3PT - .118

 

[nighthorse]

what teams go on the list of teams we hate....

boston
milwaukee
new york.....

Deleting my rant...pointless commentary...

 

[deportes]

Did anyone take Dallas +1.5 at the start. A so called polyester play. I wish I had.. Are the polyester plays the ones you are supposed to saty away???

 

[Dragon]

Deportes...polyester man cleaned up tonight...I think these 3 could be categorized as polyester...all looked too easy or like "locks"...

Minny
Dallas
Sacramento

 

[ddubs]

Will somebody tell Olowokandi to stop forcing those ugly ass 20 foot skyhooks if he couldn't get any closer? I know they want to establish down low, but freaking kick it out and move the ball to the other side.:thefinger

Clips-3 x2 Hope they adjust at half time. I think they can, I think they can.........

[nighthorse]

i went poly with dallas in the game, and then i went plaid with them again in the second. i read the cooz3 thread earlier about boston.....he's right.

 

[nighthorse]

i have a bit of a rant question....how does miami.....after successfully controlling a slow game in the first half.....go along with playing up-tempo in the second??? And, look pretty good doing it?
