NBA Thursday

Going with one play for Now...

Thunder @ Grizzlies - Great game #2 and obviously most peeps have to expect the Thunder to bounce back and take game #3. However, Grizzlies are playing very well at home and Thunder really aren't much inside except for Ibaka (he's obviously a beast). Conley has been playing awesome the first couple games and Randolph/Gasol are about as good as it gets in the post with regards to a duo. Grizz have enjoyed recent playoff success and think it continues tonight vs. Thunder despite most peeps likely will be wagering Thunder with the zig-zag theory. While it has proved profitable so far, I don't think the trend continues.

Grizzlies +2.5 (-120) for 8*

Still debating the other 2 games, but leaning home dogs at this point. Public will be hammering Pacers and likely Clippers after their 40 point beatdown. However, Paul doesn't appear to be 100% and Warriors are much tougher at home. Not sure I believe Pacers have solved everything after one good half. Will post later this afternoon what I decide to play.

Just can't take the Hawks... they are the #8 seed and sure looked the part in the 2nd half last game.

Pacers -1.5 (-120) for 8* - Here is hoping this team has turned the corner and will start playing much better!

If you go up and down the rosters, the only position were Atlanta might have a favorable matchup is at PG with Teague and maybe PF with Millsap although West is the far more clutch player. Pacers 98-89 tonight is my best guess.

Good Luck however you decide to play.

I like the Pacers too. I've watched the Pacers all year. There is definitely a team chemistry issue. I also just read a story that said Lance Stephenson and Evan Turner got into a fight during practice. It also claimed that the guy Hibbert was referring to about being selfish a month ago was Stephenson. I really liked their effort in the 2nd half against Hawks. That's the team we all know. Less Hibbert and Stephenson and this team seems to play better. Tonight will answer a lot of questions about the rest of this series. I hope they crush the Hawks.

Golden State +3.5 (-120) for 8* - surprised it went up 1.5 points, but I will take it!
