Monday 1-0 +100
ytd 11-14 -132
MIL -2 over Boston (107/100)
See cooz3s thread for some nice thoughts on this game. I am usually the 1st one to back a team the 1st game w/o a star player but cannot here. They are quite thin now w/ Battie out too and after a nice short road trip where they went 2-0 vs MIL and PHI, sometimes a team returning home in that situtation can be a good fade. Hate taking the Bucks as a road fav but they have been playing great since Kukoc's return, especially on the road.
TOR +13.5 vs IND (110/100)
Mostly playing the sandwich game angle as Indy comes off a home/home series w/ Detroit and play Seattle next. With all the Gary Payton rumors I am hoping they are peeking ahead to that game. At any rate as much as they have been defending their home court have to back the Raptors who have been playing well ATSwise of late, especially on the road. Hoping Antonio Davis has a big game vs his old team.
CHI +6.5 vs ORL 54/50
CHI +232 50/116
Have been going against Orlando a few times lately and not about to stop now. Especially like the angle of a team's 1st game home off a good road trip (2-1) and get a good player back for his 1st game back with Mike Miller, another fade I like. Orlando is still giving up too high a fg% and not good enough rebounding and are 3-7 ats in their last 10 to the Bulls' 6-4 ats. Hope the road win over Atlanta has given the Bulls some confidence and they arrived in Orlando on tuesday so they are plenty rested. I know Orlando may have revenge on their mind from losing by 20 in Chicago but revenge can be overrated, I hope it is here.
PHO/MIA over 177.5 (107/100)
Mostly looking at Miami's 65 pt effort vs NYK on monday. More often then not I find teams usually put an emphasis on offense in their next game. PHO on a little slump of late but they have been playing some tough competition. Still they have given up 99+ pts in their last 5. Miami is 11-6 o/u at home to 8-14 on the road. Phoenix is 10-11 o/u at home to 12-8 away.
GL to all tonite. With the Miami line now at +5 it is getting very tempting to play the home dog but passing for now
