going to test my luck and try the same play i did 2 nights ago

Cleveland 1Q
Cleveland leads the league in 1Q pts by a margin of +4.4 while Min is like 5th last at -1.6
the 1q line for cle is -4.5
cleveland loves to get out to a huge lead in the first quarter and dictate the pace of the game
If anyone recalls their last game vs NJ, cle came out with like a 9pt 1q lead (1q line was -4 cle and nj is a better 1q team then min)
gonna test my luck and try this again
also for anyone thinking that cle dominates the 1h or 1q and 2q be careful. Cle tanked the 2q against nj and slowly let nj back into the game in the 2h which gave nj the back door cover
i think the safest play is cle 1q rather then 1h
BOLTA if u tail

I know you've done this b4 Slicer - but cud you explain your 'take' on the Accuscores for both Col and Pro. For instance, we know from following Ax - u look for a # that falls nicely into a 3 pos. variance and then go deeper. Ex: all these col scores that u put w/ accuscore interactive look very close. How do you use/interpret them?

hello ax.......the milwaukee bucks under 93 for full game don't look that bad against orlando......boston with their big 3 could only muster up 82.......any thoughts on that.....thanks

Actually eyeballing this one big time. I can't see them scoring 90 at all. Liking this play more and more. Potential POD for me.

W/o question, but the Hawks less able to put Parker in a corner given the lack of scoring punch out on the floor minus Ginobili; w/ Manu back in the mix, defenses have to play the Spurs more honestly now b/c they can't sag away from unproven reliable offensive commodities such as Udoka and Hill - Mason probably open for more free looks too.

This is what scares me about this SAS game. They could very well light it up at home on a Friday night.

NCAA Accuscore:

Unc 9 and 164.6
Oklahoma 2.7 and 151.9
Kansas .7 and 139.1
Louisville 9.3 and 139.7

Slicer

Checked out your spreadsheet -- looks like Accuscore has been no better at predicting than throwing darts - for NCAA at least.

Tracking any of their NBA performance?

Raptors are 0-9 ATS coming off 2 straight ATS wins.

Is Calderon fully healthy (dislocated finger notw/standing)? As he goes, this team goes - Toronto's fortunes went south w/ his hamstring issues back in November.
I'm leaning TOR on this one...hate to play TOR but may be a good spot for them. I do see the trend but I have to break down the numbers here...

AX,

How much/if any does 'this time of the season' sway or not, the stats reliability: w/re: to what the commentators on TNT r always jokin abt ( teams having given up/how they're out there on the court thinkin abt their trip to Fiji in a few weeks, etc.)?

Accuscore 11:10am Update-

Raptors 8.9 and 204.5
Magic 15.5 and 194.5
Sixers 6.1 and 184.5
Hornets 8.5 and 210.5
Celtics 2.8 and 180
Cavs 15.1 and 186.9
Lakers 9.2 and 204.4
Mavs 3.3 and 211.1
Spurs 13.8 and 190.8
Kings 2.4 and 210

This qualifies for that 4-4.5 group doesn't it slice?

I usually don't play 1Q but I love this on a Friday night at home for the Cavs. Wouldn't be a complete shock if they were up DD in 1Q

KB, less and less reliance on Stats this part of the season...I believe this is where the situation capper has the best advantage. I'm doing more reading now on the mood, gameflow of recent games, playoff positioning, resting of key players and such. I hate this part because this is my weakest as a capper. I like to read ETZ's and other situational capper's commentary about the games. There are still the trending in situations that i keep a close eye on.

at second glance i am getting close to the number but the line is rather high for a memph team that has been consistently scoring in the 80's recently. due for a breakout performance. no better place to put up BIG numbers than Arco. thoughts?
