The oddsmakers wanna keep playing this stupid game of "I Dare You", ok I'm in...
 
I'll take the OVER 192 again...
 
I may be a sucker, but man both teams shot TERRIBLY from the 3pt line and I admit the game was lucky to be over, but even without that last 3 by Anthony parker the game woulda ended at 187 with that bad shooting. Keep riding the over til it breaks

Toronto is in a good situation cover wise, and i think that i'm gonna ride them in this game. Toronto is a great home team as evidenced by their 5-0 ats record in Canada. They have also covered 4 out of 5 times against Washington coming into this game at home. So all the arrows point to Toronto romping in this game, and not even letting it be close. Washington alread won their game without Caron. Now it's time to get back to reality. Because of the potential blowout in this game, i would advise taking the under. I see a score of 92-79 at the end of this one.

Toronto -2 Big Pimpin'

Am taking the Raptors again tonight at -5. Thought they played like shit last night and still managed to take it into overtime. Heard Sam Mitchell on the radio this morning and he was none too pleased. They should be a little more motivated tonight.
  One of those nights last night going 0 for 2. Raptors blow it in OT and the Lakers come back in the last minutes to cover by 1. Ouch!

I'm starting to love these special 8point teasers.  I hit two three teamers easy last night so some big money.

Washington will be in one of my three teamers tonight at the good line of +18.5.

I am not betting because all the pros picked Toronto. Watching them pretty closely at home they will blow out the Wizards - maybe 105-87. I don't like the way the oddsmakers are playing with this. Anyway Raptors in a blowout

Hey Duffield, I'm have been looking at these 8 point teasers as well.  My book allows 3 team 8 point teasers at -140. 
 
I can't decide the best way to swing the points though.  Do you find more success making it an easier spread for the underdog or for the favorite?  Like tonight, do you take Miami +24 or Orlando -8?

CK have you thought about taking Wash now at 10.5 and hitting the oh so rare "middle"?

I can do 3 team 10 pt teasers at -120. Atlanta screwed me last night. Should've went the other way. Had the Knicks +17 and Seattle +15. Good question Zeta. I would like some opinion on that as well.

I'm contemplating putting a small wager on Washington ML. It's at +500 now!! I've made a lot of bank betting on Washington so far this season. (and then lost a decent bit when they sucked vs the Nicks a few weeks ago).

WAS +11 is pretty close to a gimme.

Honestly, I should probably lay off after wanting to 'take a Wiz' last night and then allowing myself to get paranoid about it.

Not so, today.  Wiz +11  ALL DAY  happiness hands

CK since you took TOR last night at -2 why not take WASH +10. Thats a 7 point gap to win both ways. I did that last night on DET got them at -3 the night before then took IND at tip at +7.5 Ended up making 2U. No matter what you cant lose your just gonna have take a hit from the juice if you lose one way.
