2 NBA and 1 NCAAB Play
New Orleans 1st Quarter -1 (2 Units) (I have them winning by 4 after First Q)
The NBA is all about revenge - the NBA is all about revenge. However, revenge is only worthwhile when you bet on a teams of equitable talent - in this case, the Blazers versus the Hornets. I told myself that I was going take the Blazers the last time these two met b/c the Hornets are were w/out Chris Paul and consequently got blown out by 15 on the road.
Now, the Hornets get to host the Trailblazers a bit healthier and this team has been playing very well of late having defeated the Jazz at home - didn't figure that coming did ya, in fact, they beat the Kings which I was on - and after winning 2 games solidly, they should have the confidence to want to come out strong against a team that whooped their behinds and now they will host them.
Why the first half? Well, the Hornets have x2 revenge going into this game which is nice and the Blazers have played some long games of late including that marathon game at Memphis where it went to OT - over 260 points scored in that game too.
However, the Hornets really had a stinging loss back on 11/10 (2 games before in this series) when they went up 38-13 in the first quarter only to end up losing 92-91 as Portland came back to win the game.
In short, I think the Hornets at home, with double-revenge playing well and I think the Blazers come out a bit flat in part as well. I'll take the Hornets to lead after the first quarter.
I don't like laying the points as this game could come down to the wire, but I think the 1st quarter is definitely worth a wager here.
Orlando Magic -1 - 1st quarter - (2 Units) (I have them winning by 5 after the First)
The Magic have to furious about letting the Hawks come back in their last game after having a huge lead only to have the Hawks come back and somehow win the game. This is a home and home game and you have to think the Magic vividly remember that loss at home - where they don't lose often.
The Magic showed that they have some serious talent and they respond well on the road as the game against the Cavs shows a lot about their character and I think they just get fired to play the Hawks who are just untrustworthy and they show up to play in a big way - especially in the first quarter.
The Magic are better than the Hawks and I think the Hawks are in for some serious ass-detailing early on and then they might make their typical 2nd half come back, however, I won't wait around for that and take the wager in the 1st quarter.
