UCSB -7.5 tonight.

...only game today out of any sport that stuck out to me today and i think it's a great spot.

SD is usually not that good on the road at all...def night/dayy when it's home/away....

...plus i like the fact they covered last 2 getting double digits.
 
 
What yall think about houston -1 tonight ?
I really like Houston to win. However, it is a back-to-back, away game. With DMC out, Kings rely heavily on there next 2 best guys, Collison and Gay for offensive production. Conveniently, Houstons best defensive players play these positions in Beverly and Ariza. 
 
eh sacramento is just bad without DMC  though , saw the games against orlando and utah , they kinda struggled against em hard , back to back game for houston but i doubt they ll lose , what concers me is the score over or under 200 ? i guess if you bet houston to win you should go with under 200 as most of their wins 

about cavs oklahoma any thoughts ? i think westbrook will destroy irving on both offensive and defensive end and that will be the key for the win . propably under 200 as well i think 
 
Chicago Bulls -2

Los Angeles Clippers -3

Boston Celtics -330

Toronto Raptors -500

Brooklyn Nets -350

Oklahoma City Thunder -500

Phoenix Suns -600
 
Portland Trailblazers @ Chicago Bulls, ov. 197
- The Bulls were able to keep the Nets under 90 total points the other night at home but gave up 51 points in the first half to a Nets line up that might be the most unathletic team I've ever watched. Tonight they face a Blazers team fresh off their worst performance of the year resulting in a loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. I believe the Blazers will come into tonight's game pissed off and ready to play after that embarassing outing and the fact that this game is on ESPN will add some extra motivation. Defensively the numbers looks great for the Blazers their last 3 games but those games happen to be against the worst offenses in the league which consist of the Pistons, Knicks and Pacers, holding each of them under 100. Defensively for the Bulls they've been terrible at home all season giving up an average of over 100. These 2 teams met up in November resulting in a 105-87 Portland win, revenge has to be on the mind of the Bulls and the Blazers are not the same team as they are on the road at home. I expect this game to be a let down defensively for both squads.

L.A Clippers @ Washington Wizards , un. 206
- I believe this number is set too high as the Wizards have been one of the top defensive units at home all season with the length of Wall, Beal and Pierce on the perimeter and the physicallity of Gortat, Humphries and Nene. The Clippers have been on a roll offensively the past few games averaging well above 100 points per game but tonight I believe they will struggle reaching that mark as the Wizards matchup well with this Clippers team.

Indiana Pacers @ Toronto Raptors , ov.196
- The Pacers made the move of inserting C.J Watson and C.J miles in their lineup for tonight's game, this is a plus offensively for them as it adds reliable perimeter shooting. Defensively I believe it hurts them because Solomon Hill and Donald Sloan slacked offensively but were big physical guards who made it tough for opposing guards to have lane penetration. Since the loss of Derozan, the Raptors have played miserably defensively giving up 100 since his absence and to the likes of Utah and Sacramento without cousins. At home the Raptors are a much more efficient team offensively as their home crowd has really given them a boost. With the moves to the Pacers lineup I believe Toronto should not have any problem scoring the ball and the Pacers offensively should see improvement from their perimeter shooting.

Oklahoma City Thunder @ Minnesota ov. 204
- Last night's contest between the Thunder and Cavaliers failed to top the total of 202/203 due to the absesnce of Lebron James and the Cavs wanting to slow the game down and really tune in defensively without him which I feel the did a good job of doing keeping the Thunder under 100 and really making them work for good looks. Tonight I believe the Thunder will come into Minnesota a little bit fatigured from last night's game so defensively they will be a bit off. Minnesota is coming off their best defensive effort of the year against the Blazers keeping them to 82 points and coming out with a win. I believe you're never as good as your best performance and this Timberwolves team has been horrid defensively all year which will result in a let down defensively tonight. With the Thunder being a bit fatigued from last night's contest the Wolves shouldn't have a problem getting up and down the floor as they like to do forcing OKC to match their tempo which I believe they'll be able to do as that favors the style of Westbrook and Jackson.

A few questions for anyone who uses 5dimes.

Do they send a lot of spam (e-mail or snail mail)? Also, do they have a good number of prop bets each night (NBA/NFL/MLB)?
 
Only time they send an email is when I'm getting a payout or verifying my identity. They don't spam at all
 
Golden State Warriors @ Dallas Mavericks , GSW -1 / Under 217
- Parsons out, more Aminu, more defensive focused lineup
- Mavs offense alot of on ball screens, taking advantages of mismatches off of switches, Warriors have ability to switch and defend effeciently at every position
- Mavs don't play enough defense to keep up with Warriors offense right now
- Mavs will have hard time scoring against perimeter defense of Warriors
 
anyone else feeling like the hawks streak ends today at orlando with vucevic back ?

also portland win + over 190 

clippers under 211

denver +8

charlotte win 

thoughts ? 
 
Bucks +6
Pacers +5
Hou/Den under 205

- Bucks off 4 days of rest, Clippers off a tough game in Washington last night, Bucks length defensively i believe will slow down the Clippers and keep this one competitive

- 4th game in 5 nights for Blazers fresh off a tough loss on national television i believe they'll come into tonight's game a bit sluggish and Indiana has revenge on their minds from a 88-82 loss in Portland earlier this season.

- Houston has been great defensively all season at home this number is inflated because it's the Nuggets and they're publicly known to score alot of points but i see them having a tough time scoring tonight, Dwight back on minute restrictions i see this throwing off Houston's offense a little




record : 11-7-1
