Have taken the following plays @ SIA

1. Seattle / NYK @ NYC Seattle -3.5

Seattle has been playing great on the road. It has won its last 5 or 6 SU on the road. Gary Payton loves to win and this is their chance to make an inroad into the playoff's spot as they are battling at number 8 position with Clippers.

NYK on the other hand are as i had said in one of the threads just a bunch of overpaid goons. Anyone who had bet them yesterday will understand the pain. A better bet if one really wanna bet on NYK would be on the Over as they seem to give up a lot of points and also score enough to go Over the total.

Seattle is shooting the ball much well and its also about confidence. NYK has done nothing to show its a good team. After last nights debacle in Miami and the journey back I am sure they will just show up to go thru 48 mins and have a good weekend.

Some trends are :

The Sonics are 20-10 ATS when away.
The over is 3-1 in the past four meetings.
Seattle is first in offensive FG% at 46.7%.
The Knicks are 8-21 ATS at MSG.
New York is 3-1 ATS in the past four meetings.
The over is 8-3 in NY's last 11 overall.


Take Seattle.






2. Minny / SA @ Minny Minny -4


The last two meetings betn these 2 have been wins by huge margins for the home team.

These are the 3 meetings betn these teams so far :

2/23/2002 SA 88 Min. 112 -5/191 Min./O
2/4/2002 SA 113 Min. 83 -4/189 SA/O
11/24/2001 Min. 99 SA 94 -3/195 Min./U


Minny is a different team at home than they are on the road. At home they are very confident and play a different ball game.

One factor to take into account here is the OT loss to Cleveland yesterday night. The starters played a lot of minutes and this may lead to fatigue especially in the second half. If at all people wanna bet on the total I think it would be a wise bet to bet Over on the first half.

Spurs have been shooting ball well but defence is not what it was last year. Also Minny can match up with them nicely with regards to players.

Minny will also have an edge on the rebounding.

Some trends are :

The over is 3-1 in the past four meetings.
The over is 6-1 in the Spurs last six overall.
SA is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 overall.
Minnesota is second in offensive FG% at 46.5%.
MINN is first in rebounding margin at +5.1/game.
The Timberwolves are 5-2 ATS in their last seven at home

Take Minny.



3. Washington / Chicago Over 184

Both teams are rested. Also in last 5 games Washington has been averaging 89.6 points and Chicago 99 points.

When Jordan has been out the slack has been picked up by the other players and they have managed to score 90 points at least. Chicago has been scoing more since Rose came into the pictures as the defence which Artest brought is not longer there. Same for Brad Miller. So the focus is more on offence and less on defence.

I dont see a lot of defence in this game. If i had to pick a side I see Chicago with a slight advantage but Jordan not being there may actually be a good thing for the Over as there are no emotions on the floor which may distract the players from playing the way they ususally do.

Some of the trends are :

The Wizards are 20-5 ATS on a days rest.
The over is 18-10 when WASH plays teams over .500.
WASH is third in offensive 3-pt FG% at 38.9%.
The Bulls are 3-1 ATS in the past four meetings.
The over is 7-2 in Chicago's last nine overall.
CHI is 26th in defensive FG% at 46.2%.


Washington Over for first half is also a good bet.

Take Over in this game.

Cheers !!!

Adding :

4. Charolette ML +120

Charolette team is healthy again and will try to make a run for the Playoff's. Boston has been trying to adjust to the new people it has got. Mashuburn's return has provided a huge boost to the Hornets and he seems to be playing real well. I think Boston is going to have a hard time on the glass in this game.

In the last 5 games Hornets have picked up their defence while Boston is not playing good defence. I think Silas will have his team ready for the Celtics who have beaten them twice this season already.

Taking the moneyline +120 on Hornets.


5. Orlando ML +135

Orlando has been playing good lately winning 5 out of 6 SU.
Detroit has lost a couple but its wins are against not so good teams .. jordanless washington .. chicago .. toronto ...

Orlando has been shooting the ball real well. Mike Miller has been scoring and they will outrebound Detroit thus leading to second half chances and easy putbacks.

Detroit offence is limited and its their defence which is good.
Defence usually picks up in the second half. I think Orlando +1.5 in first half is also a good bet.

I think if Orlando shoots the ball well they can outscore Detroit. Magic will be looking to make a run for the playoff's and a win against a playoff opponent is always good.

I think Orlando wins this one by 5- 8 points.

Taking Orlando ML

Good luck 2 all

Cheers !!!

Several odds compilers had Gamebookers and a few others with Chicago line at 184. Actually, I checked on these. The books in question were really offering a line of 189.5 or 190, and in one case hadn't even put up their line yet.

It was just the compilers getting things wrong

actually had taken the chicago line last night around 10:30 pm.

I think a lot of people bet over so the line really moved.

Now its around 190 if i am not mistaken.

Cheers !!!

Washington / Chicago UNDER 190.5

Comments regarding Chicago / Washington game :

I think the line has really moved since I took it last night.

I got the Over @ 184.

Now the line stands at 190.

I had the total coming around 186.

Would like to make a correction. If the line is now around 190 I think it may be a good decision to take the UNDER. My lean is towards the under at 190.

gsp .. thanx bro .. had not noticed the line change.

I am not sure If i want to middle it betn 184 and 190 ..

Good luck and gsp .. really like ur leans .. only thing is U gotta play them more .. :D

Cheers !!!

Just came back from the Raptors game .. and one thing to say

Raptors suck big time ..

had gone 5 mins late so got 2 tickets for me and my girl from the scalpers very cheap .. i think $84 worth tickets for $30 .. but boy was that a waste ..

Dont think it was a good night for me:

1. Seattle -3.5 L (NYK was due big time and guess 2day was their night)

2. Minny -4 L (minny just did not fight)

3. Minny -2.5 first half (sad sad sad ) L

4. Orlando +1.5 first half W (Orlando usually come out gunning)

5. Orlando ML L ( did not expect Orlando 2 give up in the second half)

6. Charolette ML W (Charolette becoming better with each game)

7. Chicago Over 184 L (no offence)

8. Chicago Under 190.5 W (no offence)


Overall Down 2.5 Units

In the Orlando/Detroit game Corliss Williamson hit his first three pointer of the season. If Gods are working against you how can ya win .. . .

Hope all u guys had a good night.

Cheers !!!
