Every single roll and bounce is going the Wolves way, plus they are having a great time out there.....Everybody on the floor for the wolves is involved and I would be really surprised if Memphis gets back into this game, although the Wolves are shooting 53% from the field with 3 guys having 12 points in the first. Maybe their wheels will fall off in the 2nd, but I won't bet on it.....2 and a half not a big number though, I still think it's a pass.

Halftime Play

as mentioned early i think memphis has a shot to keep this close and the have a little bit of the ebb coming at them as the T-pups shot 52% while the grizz was a woeful 37% to include 0-7 from three land...

Three unit Selection:
Grizz -2.5

OK Sneaks, that's 1-0 already, great call on Minny in the first half. Let's bear down and crush the halves tonight fellas. I liked the Minny game to go over 191. With 95 in the first half it is right on pace. Looks like no help from late fouling but the Grizz should put up at least a few more. I lean to the OVER.

 

[Randercity]

Good guess Alienx!!

Don't know what JT thinks, but I'm liking the GRIZZ and a lean to under.

Nolan,
For what it is worth I think that minnesota tonight is in a situation that we touched on several nights ago. i think they will come out and win the first half, and memphis will be the play in the second half and perhaps in the entire game.

REPLY: Good work, JT. I totally see your logic here. Wish were were getting more points with Memphis on the backdoor cover (seems to work better when there is a huge spread, so as to account for a few errant baskets), but your thought is appreciated. We're almost at halftime, so it's looking good so far.

going to play memphis for 1 unit. The thing that scares me is the fact that they are getting almosr doubled up on the boards 34-16. Still think they should make a little run and i see them losing by 9-11 points.

RC,\
Glad to see we are on the same side here, and

#10...great stuff, look forward to the rest of the halftime games with Houston/Washington on deck....

5 OUT 7 SECOND HALF PLAYS (LAST NIGHT) WERE FAVORITES....BUT, STILL GOING W/ JT & RC ON MEMPHIS -2.5 FOR 4 UNITS! GL~TO~AV1

 

[JT Sneaks]

Shawn,

You bring up an excellent point on the boards, and I agree with you but the thing I noticed was that the T-wolves seem to be looking at this game as an easy win, and they are in high spirits as they are doing no look passes and many alley oops

many pro teams take offense to this, and the fact that the grizz are cold from the arc should account for some extra points, also the big lead will allow the Tpups to go to the bench and slow down the tempo, which allows the grizz to shorten the lead.

Thanks for the input and look forward to more..

Excuse me if I'm not TOO talkative... bad taste in mouth right now. Waited til HT to play your GAMECOCKS JT, got +1.5 and VOLFAN had a 3 unit play on UNDER, so I went UNDER 72 at HT, or 137 for the game....

FINAL: GTWN 70 S.Car 68

DOUBLE OUCH!!!!

I'd rather lose by twenty than get nipped like that on BOTH plays in one game! Oh well, get back to my strength and nail these NBA HT's and get it all back...

 

[JT Sneaks]

RC,

Your right and was on the same dynamic duo in the second half....the NBA will show us the way...

Although this is the wrong forum, i thought that i would add a 2nd half play in the NCAA.


SMU -3 2nd half.

I do not see Tenn hitting that well from the feild, and more importantly that well from teh arc, an unbelievable 9-14 from 3 pt land.

 

[alienx]

Hey RanderCity, I think off it as a good loss as if there is any. Better then losing by 20 b/c makes me think I was right. You were right. Just one player from eather team got a lucky bucket. Well anyways sorry to hear you lost.

WIZ/ROCKETS.......Not a high scoring first half and I don't see any reason to think that will change in the 2nd......Pace isn't real quick, Heywood is playing extremely well this evening and keeping a lot of stuff out of the middle....Not a lot of bad shots, not a lot of turnovers, just a slower paced game and it's close which should keep it slowed down. I like the under the 89.

 

[raz19]

KEYSER... im like u slow paced game. may take a little on the under..,rockets need to pick up the pave of this game!!!!

 

[JT Sneaks]

I'll drop the 3 in this spot as I see the rockets looking for the big win, and they have not shot as well from the field as the wizards and as predicted Jordan is wretched, with only six points fromthe floor. I look for the wind to come out of the wizard's sails when jordan takes a seat late in the game as his knee begins to ache.

Double Unit Selection:
Rockets -3

Wash at HOUSTON

Both teams went to sleep in the 2nd qtr, but I think that'll change in 2nd half. I LOVE the OVER here. MJ is notorious so far this year with coming up big late after a slow start, and with MOBLEY being hot, and RICE/THOMAS not having done much yet, I think this game goes over the 167 EASILY!!! This is ALMOST a FOUR UNIT play for me, but I'll keep it in perspective, and play it for THREE.

OVER 89 3 UNIT PLAY

 

[dr. freeze]

mobley said before the game that his ankle was feeling better.....for those of you on the Bullets...lol....you might wanna hedge....i have em at 7 though and the Rockets normally do not ever win by more than that at home so i am comfortable with it....

like the under play second half....OT or fouls at the end will be the only thing that keeps this from hitting.....

 

[alienx]

Not whatching the game but Wash %36 Hou %38 shooting is not so great could improve a bit. 89 is a low number. Jordan is 3of 10 from the field. Never understand why he keeps shooting at his off nights but if he stays in the game he will shoot. Lean to rockets.

 

[dr. freeze]

also....side note.....the crowd here in Houston could care less about who wins this game......Rockets fans are so disenfranchised with this horrific team that hardly anyone cares....they are just there to see Jordan....
