#27 Posted: 2/23/2012 5:27:57 AM Have you one MENTAL? This is the BEST TEAM IN THE NBA with the BEST DEFENSE that matches up EXTREMELY WELL with a .500 team like the Knicks. The game is AT Miami. People talk about Lin having turnovers. Wait until he plays the number one team that forces them and he will hit double digits. The only problem the Heat have is motivation and they have PLENTY OF IT. The Knick will get crushed with Miami's transition game and if they go half court it will be a turnover fest for the Knicks. This is a MISMATCH NIGHTMARE FOR THE KNICKS and the Heat are the hottest and best team in the league. The line is double digits for a reason. VEGAS is trying to keep people from unloading on Miami. |

#31 Posted: 2/23/2012 7:46:45 AM Miami -3 at home vs NY is like saying they would be PK at a neutral court. Maybe even NY-1 at a neutral court if we assume MIA's home court advantage to be 4. |

#33 Posted: 2/23/2012 8:14:32 AM This is the most ridiculous thread ive ever seen, the knicks still play no defense and even thought I agree that they will definitely be up for this game, the heat have been pounding teams. Sure, with their firepower the knicks could absolutely stay within the number, and with Carmelo on your team you can always win any single game, but with the heat at home, on national TV in the final game before the all star break I'd be more shocked to see a knicks SU win than I would be to see a 20 pt blowout by the heat. I watch every Heat game, call me biased, but that's just my .02. Heat -3, LOL |

#34 Posted: 2/23/2012 8:15:27 AM People are getting dumber and dumber every year.
The biggest joke I've seen in a long time is you and this post.
If you don't get the line quit gambling NOW.

#35 Posted: 2/23/2012 8:17:35 AM personally though, I'm gonna stay off this one and just enjoy the game, if it was something like Heat -7 I'd probably be all over them |

#40 Posted: 2/23/2012 9:09:03 AM The line should be Miami -5.5 based on current performances but that way the action would be equal on the spread and 55-45 In favor of the Knicks on the ML.
So what do the line makers do??? They make the Heat favored by more than they're supposed to so that the people that would of bet the Heat ML at -225 now have to bet the Heat -9 on the spread instead because you're not going to bet the ML at -500. This also increases the Knicks ML bettors and reduces the number of people taking the Knicks on the spread because why would you pass up the +350 value on the ML???
So how do the books win tonight???
If the Heat win by 10+ they clean up on Knicks ML bettors If the Heat win by 8 or lower they clean up on Heat -9 bettors and Knicks ML bettors If the Knicks win outright they lose on Knicks ML bettors but clean up on Heat -9 bettors which makes them lose a lot less than you would think and they also have a chance to win some back on the Lakers/Thunder game later on.
There you go, Whatever the outcome of tonight's game the books wont get killed, So whoever thought the Knicks were a trap think again. |

You must be a bookie or work for a sportsbook online/Casino trying to steer people away from betting the Heat. The Knicks are a paper tiger, and now that Melo is back have no chemistry. Oh, they beat a Hawks team w/out their top 2 players big deal.
Orlando will win by 20 @ ATL tonight. The Heat are prideful and will want to destroy the Knicks for taking their spotlight on ESPN. These are the kinda situational games that the Heat bring their A game and crush their opponent. |

#48 Posted: 2/23/2012 9:28:15 AM Is crazy to think that NY is even close to the Heat level. They got some new pieces that may fit in a good squad, but right now (if miami does not pull one of their "tonight not feeling like playing at all ) only Bulls and OKC may justified a line under 10 on Miami...
Miami shows up today and destroys NY. Knicks play no D and have lapses...maybe Chandlers D and Lin heroics keeps it close for a while, but Miami kills them for sure |

THE SMALLEST LINE THE HEAT HAVE HAD AT HOME THIS YEAR WAS - 4 1/2 AGAINST THE BULLS ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO. |

#50 Posted: 2/23/2012 9:33:31 AM ESPN will get a boner If the Knicks win tonight, It gives them a chance to showcase there beloved poster boy throughout the All Star break and how his team are now legit contenders for the NBA championship since they beat the Heat In Miami.  |
