Bah, 2-4 for me tonight

Season record 4-9 (-710)

Got the knicks in an unbelievable comeback by the hook, but lost the under in the process. Toronto gased out on us, good call to whomever predicted the letdown on that one.

Oh well, it's earlier and haven't even played a full unit play yet. Still plenty in the bankroll for the season.

Great call on that over my man, I stand corrected. That was definitely two different halves of bball. I really think your Celtics can do some serious damage this year...

Toronto gased out on us, good call to whomever predicted the letdown on that one.

The major concern for the Raptors really stems from the point - overly cautious (which is responsible for his much ballyhooed assist to turnover ratio), lacking lateral quicks, and unable to accelerate the tempo of the game, Calderon looks less and less a first team guard and more of a liability.

Mike Conley Jr. literally toyed w/ him much of the game going downhill on Calderon, forcing his teammates to help out, leaving their own man open for boards, etc. Then switched over to Mayo to limit the Grizzlies from further exploitating his deficiencies, but Mayo took advantage of the height difference to spring 2 3 pointers late in the game, killing off any Raptor rallies.

Supposedly recovered from his hamstring issues from last season, the problem now is possibly that he's just not good enough.

When Calderon comes up against speedy points, look for the opposition to have more than a fighting chance. When confronted w/ bullish points like Deron Williams and Jason Kidd, he gets abused physically. Doesn't leave much else on the table as redeeming strengths.

wasn't a bad night at the table tonight. had to check the firearms at the door. i hate smoke but there was plenty of it. took away $3100 from the table at the end of the evening so I went home happy.

The only thing that sucked is that I had no idea what the hell was going on with the games. NO TV's. Did we win? LOL trying to tune in on the radio on the ride home. I'm not getting blasted on the tread so I'm thinking we're good. LOL off to bed fellas. will check scores later.
