alianza lima vs junior based on a Peruvian website alianza lima is a full squad available but junior is missing too many pieces. Their best player Teofilo gutierrez won’t play. And Raül Pérez, james Sanchez won’t due to seriours injuries. Also doubtful are Alberto Rodriguez and daisy balanza. They are defensemen and midfield. This is a critical game for both team if they were to want to advance from a group that includes boca juniors and palmeiras. Alianza is playing at home. 5dimes has alianza it at +1/2 for -114 or pk at +205. |

i see many backing Spurs for 1Q and 1st but don’t think spurs can win the game. If that’s you, why not go for this prop bet? Spurs 1st half wins & loses game +425 (5dimes)
just thought. Seems you get a way better return for it.

If anyone trust the spurs can cover 1Q and 1st half but not to win the game. Why don’t you go for a prop bet: Spurs wins 1st half game & loses game +425 ( 5dimes) |

You're welcome. Also, peru is missing 5 international players. 1 mid playing for pachuca,mexico. 1 def. Just signed to play in germany. 2(mid n def.) playing for NIKE wolrd best team w/ man u & barca. And 1(forwd) in holland. Peru will have a goalie who absolutely no ones ever heard of. Because the absence of cartagena, coach ahmed decided to play a 4-4-2 but with 5 defenders(1 in mid) sitting out hinostroza. Uruguay is @ full roster but playing an unsual 4-4-2 rather than 4-4-3 sitting out bueno and rolan. Peru should be in better form having played 5 friendly games while uruguay only 1 & it was against peru which resulted in 0-0. Goalie=big edge uruguay, defense=small edge uruguay, midfield=small edge peru, fowards=small edge peru(big edge if benanvente, bulos, and polo could play to their potential). Based on their lineups it has the makes of a low scoring game. Lines are very fishy as it should be uruguay -1 and juice on under 2.5. That's it. Hope it helps. Gl

having played in peru/brazil as a youngster ill give more info about this game. striker andy polo, benavente, bulos, and hinostroza will not start tonight. polo will be playing in genoa(italy) this year but hes on a major decline since his latest injury so he most likely not feature. bulos is also coming back from injury and hasnt played in belgium lately. this is 2nd tourney for cristhian benavente wearing national uniform and he was horrible on his 1st time. will he bounce back? i guess well wait for 2HT to know. deza is long ways to go, while flores and reyna are amazing players. uruguay has to many scorers and peru's best hope to defend it was with william cartagena, he wont play due to accumulative yellow cards. looking at perus staring lineup. perus strategy here as always is to defend and contain uruguay 1HT to stay in game and rely on their forwards to score 1 maybe 2 goals here so over 3 is 1 too many. gl

"Griffen is not a a good Shooter but instead of just jacking shots and bricking 15 footers he could play off ball and get his points in transition while the lakers har their only guy who can defend the rim and rebound 15 feet from the hoop. " . transition pts can only be operated when is a fast play converted from one half court to the other. in howard vs griffin case, it would be half court. putting howard on griffin on a transition defensive play would be dumb. honestly, i see no side in this game. it would be one hella of game tho. one im going to!! cheers!!

@theforbes777. this is 1st regular season bt lakers/clipps. they have played some games in preseason. if you take a look at those. 1 one of those coach brown had howard on griffin and gasol on jordan for about 2 min. its same game they experimented with artest on cp3. some may say thats dumb bc it will force howard outside the paint but thats brilliant!. why? griffin doesnt have range shot, its improving but not there. yes howard will be forced to guard griffin outside paint but with 7ft gasol on jordan and a little help it would basically go like this. griffin shoots 15ft, miss, lakers rebound, lakers possession. not to mention that cp3 against a big guy(defender) forces cp3 to pass and rely on clipps jumpers therefore forces clipps to have no offensive flow. other thing to point out is if when you said "barnes on kobe", this would take away clipps efficiency from 3rd best rebounder, also critical with pts and steals with having to be on perimeter assignment on kobe. barnes is also critical with pts and steals. if youre saying this game is about coaching then my clipps have shown all they can do w/o hill & billups. lakers however havent. this may be that game. 3 of my projection models have clipp -6.5. because all mentioned above ill pass. gl

nfl is alot about matchups. nba isnt quite as much, it is rather about plays, length, space coverage and momentum. howard hasnt been healthy, a full lakers lineup, or a system to dominate. just look at his fpg, fpp, ofpg, etc. what the means is for trying to make up hes been extremely aggressive. "And it's fine for the Lakers to put Artest on Paul but the Clippers can't put a number of guards on Kobe?". of course it is. clipps offense is nothing w/o cp3. it runs through him. last time they played, lakers put artest on cp3 in last 6min of the game and it worked but clipps won. what # of guards on kobe? google or scout clipps guards and then ull know how wrong you are. again green is their best active perimeter defender but dude has no hip movement. youre confused, perimeter is different than guards, when a play is in motion then ull see barnes on kobe, bledsoe double teaming closing up kobes sweet spots, butler stands no chance, green is their best hope 1-1 on kobe, cp3 cant waste his energy on kobe, etc. again try to scout or maybe google gasol game vs griffin. in a match up situation gasol is defense, griffin is offense but this is nba n not nfl. anyways i dont want to jinx it. im not playing this game so as a clippers fan lets hope for clipps victory by 5 or more!!!

Match ups: Dwight vs Jordan - Jordan matches up well and should be able to frustrate Howard and make him work on the glass. Kobe vs Clippers platoon of guards - clippers have a variety of looks to throw at Kobe. Matt Barnes knows Kobe well and should be able to frustrate him. Crawford should be able to score Paul vs Nash - big advantage for clippers. Paul will have his way with Nash. Should be able to get in the paint and distribute. Lakers don't switch or help well on D Griffen vs Gasol - huge advantage Clippers, especially on the glass Lakers biggest weakness: transition defence Clippers biggest strength: transition offence This should be the deciding factor in the game. sorry but ur match up analysis is horrible. i think your emotions are taking over your decision making on this one. howard is by far the best active post up center but has been playing overly aggressive w/lakers(fouls), jordan is a mediocre post up C. he has improved n has length & athleticism but cant push Cs around the paint and no range shot. kobe vs clipps guards: u do know barnes is a natural wing SF right? not a guard, crawford is a below average defender right?, green is their best SG defender but has struggled career wise against pick n pops players. paul vs nash: i give u that but is more about bledsoe vs lakers 2nd unit guards that will make a difference, why? ever since cp3 came to my clipps, especially this year teams have put a big guy on cp3 and hes struggled. look at their last game. so lakers might put artest on him. griffin vs gasol: on defense gasol is far better, however on offense griffin outplays gasol but again cp3 vs big guys might factor into this match up. overall, clippers have better team but they seems lost lately, lakers and jamison are "who da heck knows". GL hope you hit it!

@cmjohnson. i admire your courage to stay firm and continue on with your thread after all that bashing. dont let that get under your skin sir. its difficult to always have a successful day or record. my take is over heat and dallas were more of and emotional picks but maybe im wrong. just continue to do YOU sir. GL.

@loathy. sounds to me like ure a action junkie. 1 grand on twolves. really? wow. i bet you have an annual income of over 250k right?. whether you choose twolves or dallas. it SHOULDA never be over 1.5 units and thats high. twolves advantage were length on perimeter, better streaky shooters though non-natural shooters, guards that can penetrate like barea and shev, and all that said it still not enough to go a grand.WOW. dallas is on decline bc is a team built defensively but not playing defense with limited mobility on all their big guys, no natural offense flowing from their guards, and no swing presence on their SFs. my take is @cmjohnson was hoping for dallas coach, carter and dallas team to bounce back but were no nostradamus and as gamblers we cant make decision on emotions. lastly, it takes balls to publicly show your picks so let the man do his job and my advice is you should start a thread of your own. gl to everyone

utah is always a trap game, like denver(altitude), toronto(travel), etc. that has been known for many years, this is by far one of toughest arena to play in, memphis in L2 on a back to back road game after playing in high altitude denver. add lack of rest with travel & everything. team staff have to do scouting report and prep players for each game but when you play back2back, coaches tend to limit their shootarounds or cancel it on 2nd game to give players rest. denver game was very physical, now they will face a killer frontcourt with speedy guards when memphis is a defensive team. spread @2 just means bookies have a s/hitload of respect for utah. dont take my word 4 it. google it. but i hope everyone here wins. GL.

trap line? yes. why? sure my clippers have been winning by 16pts but theyve done it at home w/o crowd pressure. in clippers last five games , they have all been close until 3rd Q into 4th Q with their 2nd unit. that trend also happened against bulls at staples. NOW, they on the road in a very though arena and whats clippers weaknesses. jordan FG, jordan/griffin FTs, and griffin range shot, and last 5 has been 3pts, theyve improved all this but at home. can they keep up those stats on the road? um ?. also, clips 1st unit has been average. bulls can win it but if theres one team that can blow this game up its clips. truly a coin flip game with no stats of clips improving all stated above.

U got it all wrong. U saying 76ers were good team. "Good" means average or slightly above. Where do u rank them? Great is more like it. 76ers were top 4(3rd or 4th) defensive team & iggy as how u refer can't make a whole team a top 4 team. As for brand, google his game from prospect to his prime to now & scratch almost everything. Brand is a traditional(old fashioned) center who's still is nba bc as a vet. knows how to read plays, long range shot, & rebounds on weak spot & he gets vet min. He WAS a very good defender then but he's ok now bc nba has changed. He may be able to push rookies, prospects, or has beens around but that's it. Anyways I haven't taken a side yet so GL I hope u win it!

Its not crazy. You see, in sports, there is always the element of surprise. Huge dogs can win it too. We just refuse to see it or are scared to put our hard earned $ on it. Not until u watch the game is when ur shocked right?. Is boston capable of winning it tonite? Off course they are. They have a very capable roster. I'd just rather grab points here. Gl

I guess u will find out tomorrow. Well, 76ers were a top elite defensive team in nba last year. They lost iguadola, williams, and brand. Iguodala is 1 of the best wings in the league, williams is a good quality prospect that lack in offense(he should have a break out year in ATL), and brand has lost all his arsenal but long range shot. Just like iguadola fits perfectly in denver, richarson fits perfectly as well. They also picked up wright(their best shooter), and other key players, their best prospects young and turner have shown big improvements in preseason and hawes(7footer) will be playing in PF something like lakers with 2 7fts big men. Overall, 76ers have 1 of the best defensive minded coach, a top elite defensive team, 2 7fts better than denver 7fts, sharpshooter this year, and are faster. No to mention they are home. Anyways gl

but if line keeps going lower. i may be inclined to pick heat @ -5 or better. does boston low units +6 and heat -5 or better makes sense? i doubt you see 5 though. i think once it reaches -5.5 you will see sharps switching to heat spread.
