NBA SUN 032209 early thoughts - value hunting (NO PICKS INSIDE)

[easterntimezone]

Fellas,

I have to call it a night here. The wife has been more than patient w/ me these last 4 days, as I have been in front of the TV for 12 hours a day watching the madness. I'll be back tomorrow, but not till around 6:00 EST, got the day job to attend to. It's been fun, and here's to making that winning ticket a regular thing. Thanks again Ax for bringing me over here; love the vibe.

Have a good night CB - pleased to make your acquaintance...

:mj06:

 

[PickNPop]

That's my bad, PNP - it's on me. And my apologies.

I'm actually more excited about the outcome b/c of what it promises for Arsenal w/ regards to the Champions League than for the Reds; I fully expect that Ferguson will have exhibited enough scorn towards his players that they'll be chastened schoolboys aiming to please him after the international break.

:mj06: It's all good, bro. And you mean Man U right?

Sac/Philly 2h

Sac/Philly 2h

Anyone like 2h O now that Sac seems to have realized there's a game going on? :box2:

 

[t20boss]

Would seem either Philly has decided to play defense as they did against LA the other night or Sac is just worse than usual tonight.. :shrug:

Combo of the 2, Granpa. Kings aren't getting a body in the lane to block Philly from going to the hole unchallenged. And the Kings aren't exactly burnin' down the nets...1st couple of minutes of the 2H will tell whether our money is gone, although many have felt this happened about 4 minutes into the game...

An addendum to last night's Lakers/Bulls game.

Adding Stacey King to list of annoying regional crew commentators.

Stacey: I thought you were a great college talent at Oklahoma alongside Mookie Blaylock. But your nasal overtones and edging-close-to-fully-biased homerism is unbecoming. Which lends more weight for my support of Danny Manning and the Kansas Jayhawks in the NCAA championship game against you and the Sooners (Larry Brown winning it all against Billy Tubbs) many, many years ago.

Unfortunately for we degen's Sac & Philly are so unpredictable they make our live's hell. Now that Sac has shown some life I'd love to believe the 2h could hit the posted over of 102, but who knows. Philly could come out and put up 10-15 in the 3rd.

If you've got Sac +5 FG, GL. Lord knows anything can happen with these 2 on the floor.

No, I think w/ the game in hand, Man U still has the Premiership and I think the Reds are left standing on the outside wistfully. But this game vaults Arsenal above Villa in the league table so that's consolation enough.

Thanks for getting back to me about this tho'... Don't really cap international games/friendlies so gonna be useless w/ game on slate coming up.

You are on a roll with this ETZ

Me to Ax. Hopefully tomorrow will present a better card for us than today..

Funny w/ what sort of esoterica remains lodged in your memory banks after all this time... I can still remember the Sports Illustrated cover of the game w/ both Manning and King in the photo; don't ask me why. 'Cause I sure as hell don't know.

Been to Arco many times, and I think the Kings will make a run early...whether they have enough to get all the way back is another question

Kings -4 (2h) GL, granpa :0corn

 

[axp59]

I took under on qtr half and game in Sac and Phil half and 1st qtr only.... Looking to take Sac 2nd half and have them cover with the ref's help!

I'm sure you hit your PHI plays but I don't know the numbers on the totals...you hit those too?

If so...that's a damn nice looking card?

3-1 in the 1st H..... Gonna take the OVER :scared 2nd half with the public pounding the under and moving it a pt.... Hope it isnt a false move to get $$$ this way... The refs called hardly any fouls yet, so that would add more to the score if they change it up 2nd h.... Im 10-2 on the day so far... Hope to be 18-2 or something like that... Big bet on over 49.5 on Phi.... Think they pad stats...

Kings -4 (2h) GL, granpa :0corn

had to do it for a nickel

If Sac would've pushed Philly a bit more, you would have got to the 49.5. Still, a helluva day for you TBB.
