Record 23-24-1
Miami @ NO -3.5 o/u170
Tough game to call. I would imagine the league wants Miami to win and get the next series started given the fact that everyone else will be. On the other side, it is tough to close out a series especially on road, let alone for a team in Miami that hasn't been to good on the road or in NO or hasn't really been there before. Young team might not understand the intensity of todays game. Not going to play this one to big, but going to side with the league and thinking they (Miami) will benefit from some calls today.
Miami+3.5 165-150
LA @ SA -5 o/u 179
Another tough game/series to figure out. Revenge certainly on the mind of the Lakers. This is the reason why they got Payton and Malone. Can Malone provide a spark to neutralize Duncan at least from the scoring aspect? I might just sit out this first game to see what happens on the actual side. However, I do like the under and think it will be a half court game. Each team poor from the free throw line and Kobe will have to certainly work for his shots. I am going to go against the grain and taking LA for the series at +120.
Under 179.5 275-250
LA series 400-480
Good luck to all.
