With Ray Allen looking to ride the bench tonight, you might give the Suns a little edge.

Milwaukee played some decent ball last night, but got whacked by the Lakers, all the same.

Even without Allen, the Bucks will be able to get some points early, I believe, but it won't be like they have been doing all season......not against these Suns.

Still, I wonder......The Suns have owned the Bucks out in Arizona. They have won 14 in a row against them! But, Milwaukee has the availability to drain the three, and I feel they will be well in this game early.

The Bucks are catching 3' in the 1st , and the o/u is 90

Milwaukee should still hit the mid 40's in the first, and I think that sets up a nice "overdog" play. The Suns strive for a slower pace, but like I said......the Bucks will be hitting treys, and that will force the Suns to counter with some speed. (IMO)

I look for a score like 48-46 at the half, and give the Bucks the 48.

Since I am not all too certain about the absence of Allen, I will make this play for only 1 unit per side.


Mil +3' -110 1st half----- 1 unit
Mil/Phx over 90 -110----- 1 unit


YTD:

12-7 +12.35

NCAA

1-0 +1


I am not big on posting the record, but some have asked for it as a 'validation' tool? I hope it stays in the black.

Why should you feel like you should have to post your record? Very few of the those that post selections post a record. You have to assume they do decently over the long haul or they wouldn't have any viewers. Even those that do post records, many are hard to interpret.

Some use plus\minus %. This does not take into account the vigorish, nor do they tell how much you are up or down. For instance, if you were down 50% in week 1 and up 50% in week 2, your record would show up as even but you would be 25% (or thereabouts) down!

Some of the hockey pickers like to post their records without plus\minus units. This is meaningless because of the significant chalk that has to be laid if you bet the favorites. For instance, if you bet all -150 favs, you have to hit 60% to break even.

Anyway, post your record if you'd like. It is up to you. WHen you are doing well, those that don't follow you regularly will perk up when they see your record! Good luck. I always read your posts either way. Thanks for posting.

personally, i like to see a record.....if you're hitting winners in b-ball, it's a good thing...and who cares...just post the damn win - loss....and who cares about units.

BUT heleanth hits it right on the head with hockey ( BUT YOUR RECORD AIN'T HOCKEY....)....too much VIG and too many high priced fave losses can have a deceiving look on your record.

IMO: the record helps your recognition here as a legit poster and builds your fan base other than the posters that just come in here post a few plays, and jet when they have a bad day.

about recognition.....but what the hell do i know about recognition....??? I'm almost 30 games above .500 in college football...and most people don't even know who i am with the "deluge" of posts in my thread. (SARCASM)

maybe i'm being too sensitive....?

Suns need to slow it down in the 2nd half, under 90.


sorry yyz, posted in wrong thread

I would not touch this second half, but I would REALLY stay off of the Bucks.

They fade fast in this situation...........
