I think CLEV will try and get their first win tonite at home vs the HOT WIZARDS, fresh off a blitzing of the RAPTORS last nite. WASH has players capable of running, and will probably do so since these are two very young teams. I think we get to half with close to 100 and then get the Over from there...
MINN played great last nite vs ORL and traveling to MIAMI shouldn't have been that big a deal. With BUTLER / WADE coming back tonite, MIAMI should struggle on offense since they haven't had much time to work on the OFFENSE as a group. MINN will be tired, but still able to win this one I feel, but tired legs make for short flights on jumpers, shooting % to be under 40 for each team.
BUCKS love to run and KNICKS ran with KINGS last nite for a win, why not again tonite. Would not be surprised if this game doesn't hit over 200. HUGE line movement from opening 176, but try as they might, the MAN is gonna take a whipping on this one... DON'T EVEN think of middling til HT, 183 is not low enough!
DALLAS should try and run SPURS outta the building without DUNCAN, and as we saw vs LAKERS, SPURS can run too. GINOBLI is a future star, and he should have fun without NASH to harass him. This game should be lined at least 190, not sure why so low, but I'll take the gift.
UTAH..... my beloved JAZZ. I love this team!
And I mean T E A M as there is no I in this team. No MAILMAN, or STOCKTON so we now have a team. NO STARS... JAZZ are playing well, made a huge run last nite to close the gap and cover vs GST, and I think they get back to winning tonite vs the GRIZZLIES. Laying 2 seems almost too cheap, that's my only concern.

PORT -3.5 FH *** TRIPLE PLAY ***
BLAZERS blew the game to SEATTLE last nite, and PORT is a 1H team, leading at HT by an average of 8 pts per game. ATLANTA may get the cover in this game, but PORTLAND will win the first half by more than enough to get us this one. PERSONALLY, I wouldn't be surprised to see BLAZERS up by at least 10 at the half...
Good luck!
OOPS!!!!!!
I stand corrected by STAND EVEN stronger by my pick...

Yeah Yeah... I screwed up. It's Saturday, only a bigillion games going on and I'm posting winners in three different threads. 4-0 so far here and all you guys can notice is my mistake... pretty sad, but basically the norm for this forum unfortunately.
I'll stand by my pick, but SICK ONE, you're right, you are apparently if all you can do is post insults without noticing the winners...
Doesn't matter... I still like BLAZERS to cover FH, and IF they do, I would hope to see a CONGRATS from you both!

I spent so much time on my JAZZ play... got mixed up I guess.
I just knew I wanted to play PORTLAND in FH tonite BIG. I didn't bother to look again at my post, I just know PORT comes out strong each game.
Let's see what happens...

Randy dude, I don't know you from adam, but I wasn't trying to rip on you at all. I wasn't even trying to show you posted a damn mistake. I just didn't want you to bet the wrong thing if you didn't like it. I don't blindly follow anyone, so I'm not gonna search to see how great you're doing. I'm not trying to be a prick at all. I was just pointing it out cause theres tons of games going on a busy saturday and maybe you capped the game thinking they were playing someone else. I post my own plays everyday, so for you to think I'm some loyal follower who can't sleep at night waiting for your picks you're nuts. I was only trying to help and if any of those remarks were any way directed at me, I take offense, but chit all i did is say you had the game wrong for your benefit. Good luck in all your plays and I liked the Blazers as well today. Hope they hit for you as well.
EZ...
not for me to say what your intent was, and NO, I didn't think you were doing anything but pointing out a possible error on my part in regards to capping the game. THAT was very kind of you in fact because it could have been a factor. I had capped the game right, based on them playing ATL, I just got too caught up in the JAZZ game I was watching and got sidetracked. I NEVER intended to offend you, nor was I lashing out because I didn't think your comment was harsh or evil minded. YES, my anger was focused on SICK boy who was probably just messing around, but at the time I was too stressed for time to answer appropriately. NOW that the JAZZ won as I expected and PORT covered the FH line by almost the exact number I mentioned, well, I'm feeling much better thank you very much...
NO offense EZ... don't sweat it! Hope you hit em hard tonite too!

No offense taken, looks like we both had good nights. Had to sweat a bit at the end of that Portland game, but wins by the hook feel all that much better. Glad you did well too.......
5-2 +3.6 Units here....
Let's see how we did on the HT thread...
CLE -2 ** DOUBLE PLAY ** WINNER
Joining the team on this one... only have the OVER in the game, so I'm not touching the total, but I like CLEV to get their first win tonite. WASH is dominating the boards, 24-16 which concerns me, but with the WIZ coming off the big home win last nite, I gotta think they fall way short of 51% in the 2nd Half, and allow the CAVS to pull out this one.
MINN -3.5 WINNER
Taking MINN to win this one. MIAMI only committed 4 TO's to the WOLVES 11, big difference, and with SPREWELL hardly a factor in 1H, look for him to be huge late in this one. MINN didn't play well, and only down 1. Gotta love it!
MILW -4 ** DOUBLE PLAY ** WINNER
OVER 91.5 Loser
Both these plays are solid. BUCKS took the 2nd qtr off for some reason, getting outscored by 10, 28-18. However, both teams putting up shots, 93 for the half and with that type of pace, it's got to favor the home team BUCKS. Look for them to get it going and pull out the win here and with the line at 4, all we gotta do is win!!! I Love It!!! NY beating SAC last nite was a fluke, they will fold like MIAMI without the HEAT!
Also like the OVER here... game was way under lined to start with.
SPURS +.5 WINNER
& OVER 92 Loser
Look for SPURS to show some heart in 2H and make this one a game. SA hitting only 35% from field, only 1 three ptr, hopefully that changes in 2H and we get a comeback here.
ROCKETS total at 88!!! What's up with that?? I wanted to play UNDER, but 88????
JAZZ -2 *** TRIPLE PLAY *** WINNER
and OVER 90 Loser by 1 pt
You what I like... LOVE the JAZZ and OVER at home in 2H. It's worked every time so far for me, not gonna doubt it here. GRIZZ shot 50% from the field in FH, dominated boards 23-13 and still barely lead. JAZZ regroup behind the 2nd best coach in NBA, Jerry Sloan, make the necessary adjustments and cruise to a win here.
ATL +2 & UNDER 91WINNER / WINNER
ATL 0 for 10 from 3... gotta think they hit a couple here. I think HAWKS get the backdoor cover... PORT not a finishing team. Like the UNDER though, should be HALF COURT game in 2H.
7-3 + 7.70 Units at Halftime
Total of 12-5 +11.30 Units on the nite
2-0 on TRIPLE PLAYS
3-2 on DOUBLE PLAYS
Can you dig it!?!?!?
