Week: 1-2-1 -$29
Total: 7-5-1 -$41 ($959)
--------------------------
I am looking at the Miami/Chicago game. With the exception of their last game, Chicago has managed to hang in there with the teams they have played. Miami is off to their worst start in 10 years. Being that Miami has a better team, IMO, I would expect them to come around faster than Chicago.
The Bulls are coming off a 7 game 0-7 roadie, also. I don't expect much of an effort from this team as the year goes by. It's a little easier to play close in the early part of the year....you still have that pride, and belief that you will "come around". These guys are not going to come around. Too many storylines going on with that team. Miami, on the other hand, is a team used to playing better ball. They have a far better coach/motivator, and will get on the ball very soon. The things going on with Mourning will subside soon enough, and this team will go on a little run real soon.
I think it starts tonight. The 5 point line is small enough to overcome, even though this should be a lower scoring game.
Given that both teams are playing poorly at this time, I won't risk a lot on this one, but Miami is worth a play.
I have not made a final decision yet, but am thinking about $22/$20
If you guys have any thoughts on this game, please chime in!
