token nba play ......

[gman2]

not sure what my exact numbers are on/against cavaliers this year, but do know that theyve been profitable.

minnesota timberwolves (-3)

all the postgame stuff from last night, all the sound bites from player interviews, and all the quotes in the local papers really have me convinced that the cavs are not too concerned with the outcome of this game tonight. lebron, silas, and gooden ALL made mention about how reaching 30 wins before the all-star break was their goal and that they feel they surprised a lot of people with their solid 1h of the season. they seemed really content that they 'got to 30' and i really think they could give two shits about this game tonight. they have to built-in excuse of it being a back-to-back with the 2nd night on the road, so if they lose you can expect to hear "well we were worn down traveling and playing b2b, but we still had a good 1st half of the season and are in a good position for the playoffs.

meanwhile, the timberwolves are in desperation mode and will likely be the aggressor tonight and show a sense of urgency.

doesnt hurt that the cavs have been terrible in minnesota for years now.

one team really needs 'positives' heading into the all-star break. the other is happy to have gotten their 30-win goal last night.

wolves should win this game comfortably tonight.

Thanks gman2 for the winner. You won me $500 which is a very big bet for me in NBA. I took Minny ML $825 to win $500. I saw your post and liked the situation. Love it when cappers come on here and post about teams they know or follow well. Thanks again for posting and posting analysis. I honestly wouldn't have even wagered $5 on the game if I didn't open your post.

I could have won $1000 if I went with my gut feeling. I was soooo close to taking Cav's +.5 -113 2h at Pinny but changed mind last second. Minny up 6 at half against a tired Cavs team. Ended up thinking it was decent chance Minny blows em out in 2h but was a lot closer than I was hoping for. If Cav's fouled at end I woulda lost so happy I didn't do it.

gman, I liked Minny going into tonight but after I read your post you solid me on it!

Thank god for good cappers!

Keep up the good work.

i lost 2 units on the college play but got 1 back on minny.was on clev until you posted. pretty classy to take so much responsibility and show remorse for the college game going down the tubes.i did win 3 units early this week on the big toledo total play so i am still up.once again one can tell you were genuine about feeling bad about the game last night. the problem i have had trying some of these services that originated from this site is how most lost quite a bit of money for their clients and never showed the disappointment you displayed. good luck this weekend. i will coattail you again
