    This is why it is so hard to believe anyone in these forums. There are 11 NBA games tonight and most of the talk on here is about one of the hardest games to bet on tonight. You guessed it that is the Atl - OK game. Atlanta is on an incredible streak right now yet they are playing a team that could bring that streak to a sudden stop. OK has had a tough year so far because key players have been hurt all year. Well that is over now and they are here to play catch up and drive there way towards the playoffs. Don't believe me just look at what they did against GS earlier this month. GS has been crushing teams and OK went in and put up 127 pts. OK would like nothing more then to nock Atlanta back down to earth and send a message to the rest of the NBA.

    One person even said to go with Atlanta simply because a picker has gone 20 in a row. (Don't get me wrong that is awesome all in itself, but he is not the only player to break the 20 mark only to fall before reaching the golden ring.)

    Ok with that being said my question is are there any real handicappers on here that would like to share there write ups on more realistic teams so that we can go back to work and make some money.

     I would never consider myself a GREAT capper, but the two games that jump out at me is Pelicans/Twolves and Hornets/Cleveland.

    Pelicans -6:  To me I see this as a pretty easy game to follow as the TWolves have just been horrendous.  If the Pelicans can't win this game easily and cover a small chalk against them, than something is terribly wrong.  For me I can't find a reason why this game isn't higher than -6, so I am forced to play the Pelicans.

    Hornets +10:  These two teams just played a fairly close game not too long ago and for me I see the same type of game.  I understand Cavs are starting to look into their "form" but I can't help but wonder when that "bad" game comes around.  Either way, I think Hornets keep it closer than 10.

    Here's some more stats on that game:
    Charlotte is 7-2 ATS in its last 9 games 
    Charlotte is 8-1 SU in its last 9 games 
    The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Charlotte's last 5 games 
    Charlotte is 4-1 ATS in its last 5 games on the road
    Cleveland is 4-1 ATS in its last 5 games 
    Cleveland is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games 
    The total has gone UNDER in 9 of Cleveland's last 12 games 
    Cleveland is 4-9 ATS in its last 13 games at home

    I couldn't agree with you more. I like both of those plays as well if I did a write up on them it would be written very much the same way.

    Okc is good not great. They barely won their last two games. They have lost 38% of their games the last 2.5 weeks. They have only covered 4 of their last 10 during which they are giving up 106pts per game.

    Atlanta has covered 10 of their last 10 during which their avg margin of victory is 15pts, theyre shooting 50% including 11 threes per game, and their defense is allowing 91pts per game.

    They are 14-0 the past 4 weeks. Over the past month give or take a day they have beaten the rockets, clippers (twice), grizzlies, cavs (twice), mavericks, bucks, pistons (twice), bulls (twice), raptors, wizards and trailblazers.

    If they haven't proven to you they are a good bet while healthy and confident on a home stretch playing the thunder on a road trip.. then go ahead, bet the Pelicans.

    Okc is good not great. They barely won their last two games. They have lost 38% of their games the last 2.5 weeks. They have only covered 4 of their last 10 during which they are giving up 106pts per game.

    Atlanta has covered 10 of their last 10 during which their avg margin of victory is 15pts, theyre shooting 50% including 11 threes per game, and their defense is allowing 91pts per game.

    They are 14-0 the past 4 weeks. Over the past month give or take a day they have beaten the rockets, clippers (twice), grizzlies, cavs (twice), mavericks, bucks, pistons (twice), bulls (twice), raptors, wizards and trailblazers.

    If they haven't proven to you they are a good bet while healthy and confident on a home stretch playing the thunder on a road trip.. then go ahead, bet the Pelicans.

    Starting to look at the unders in the Pelicans game rather than going with the -6.5.  and numbers101.  I will be on the ATL train once again as it has been a great ride so far.  I dont see a problem with them taking care of business against OKC.  All I hear is OKC has these superstars, but to me, ATL is a COMPLETE team which makes them a beast to play.   
    I think dmddms was just looking for some write ups on other games since the feed is clogged with ATL/OKC threads.
