NBA Monday...

[Destructor D]

Heat @ Charlotte - At times, this series has looked like a Varsity vs. a JV. Line last game was Heat -4.5 and now they're -7.5! Wow! Would appear oddsmakers are expecting another double digit beating. If Charlotte plays like they did in the 2nd and 3rd quarters on Saturday, this will likely happen. However, I have to believe Charlotte wants a win and isn't throwing out the white towel. My guess is the Heat probably win, but they won't cover.

Charlotte +8 (-120) for 8*

Record for NBA Playoffs 21-7-2
Series (ATS):
Toronto vs Brooklyn 3-0-1
Charlotte vs Miami 1-1-1
Wizards vs. Bulls 4-0
Hawks vs. Pacers 2-2

Warriors vs. Clippers 3-1
Dallas vs Spurs 2-1
Blazers vs Rockets 3-1
Grizzlies vs Thunder 3-1

Also, played Warriors +7 (-120) for 10* already on Tuesday night - believe it will be a circus at the Clippers game tomorrow night and this won't help the home team. Line is a little low, but oddsmakers are just preparing for an onslaught of Golden State backers.

Still debating Spurs vs. Dallas and Hawks vs. Pacers

GLTA

Charlotte just went to 8... looks like everyone likes the Heat tonight.

Spurs -4 for 8* - Playing now as the line could go up... If you like Dallas, I would wait. Huge game for the Spurs and they were the best team in the NBA on the road this season. Dallas was not much ATS at home this season. Too teams heading in opposite directions with regards to ATS numbers, but it's the Spurs season on the line and I expect their "A" game tonight and hopefully a 5+ point win.

Hawks +7... Have endured a tough time capping this series, but zig-zag, bounce back applies to Hawks so hope they come ready tonight!

Must be Al Jefferson out for CHA that why the line jump to -8 ???

Great playoffs run and GL.

Well Al Jefferson did screw me, but I'll take a 1-1-1 night and pay the man his vig.... still kind of sucks as I would have backed Heat if I knew he was out. Probably was lucky pushing the Spurs anyway.
