I was not impressed by the Celtics in their Knicks game defensively, and I think LeBron and D.Wade will have their way. Is Pierce playing tomorrow?


Total is rather tricky. I think the line will somewhere be 180ish and honestly it could go either way. We share the same observation with the Celtics that's why I'm kind of on the fence with playing totals in their games. I still see them as the defensive team they were. I believe Pierce will be out for a game or two but I'd love to see him suit up against the Heat.

Wade and Bronbron will most likely get their 20 points tomorrow.

Another tricky game. Like I said, Kobe has been carrying the offense and he already logged 75 minutes and he isn't even 100% healthy. I get this feeling we'll see a close game where the points will come in handy.

It will probably dip but not too much. The line do move a lot during the preseason but then there were an awful lot of changes prior to game time (and it's the preseason).

Goodluck to the both of us!

Their bench looks like this.  This is the Hawks 2nd Unit.

PG-Jannero Pargo
SG-Tracy McGrady

PF-Ivan Johnson
C-Zaza Pachulia


Nets 2nd Unit

PG-Jordan Farmar
SG-Stevenson and Brooks
SF-Shawne Williams
PF-Sheldon Williams
C-Mehmet Okur

You tell me which bench you rather have? 
Hawks may be the better starting 5, but the Hawks have a game the next night and won't be able to play the starters a ton of minutes. 


Pargo might even start. Anyway, just to answer your question, I'd rather have the Nets' bench but that's all they have. Their starters isn't even half of what the Hawk's V is capable of. Nets will obviously have a lot of advantage on the 1 and/or 2 spot but they will be dominated in the post.

Hawks will have a field day when teams allow them to slow down and play half court. I see the starters logging heavy minutes here and not really looking forward to the next game since they'll most likely underestimate Washington (and they'll play them at home which is a bonus since Wizards suck twice as much on the road).

Wizards beat the Hawks last time they played by 32.  Think the Hawks may want to avenge that loss.  Teams don't forget games like that.  Deron Williams will control the entire game.  Good luck brother.

Goodluck Shango. Hoping that the Nets will somehow be tired after last night.

I was waiting for this UTAH game ever since the season started.

This is definitely the day and the year to fade the Lakers.  With the travel time involved as well, the Lakers at home won't be able to this "easy" team on being this is their 3rd game in a row.

Utah+4.5

Hey Milk, I'm actually torn in between the Jazz and the Lakers. I know they have the will but fatigue is a big factor. Also, since this is Utah's first game, I'm sure they prepared for this. Can Kobe and the guys pull this off?

For Sac, I'm also not so sure about their game. Was it more of a hype for them or are they that good?

Nothing wrong with it really. The line was based from last season (as most other would) and so they came up with 8. I do feel it's a bit high like a point and a half and so I expect it to dip to as much as 6.5 by game time.

Yes but I'm staying away from the totals for a bit (haven't won any total bet so far). Like I said, both teams should score around 85-90 a piece and seeing a 196.5 total I think they go UNDER.

Yes, I think Lakers could still pull it off. They are playing better defense in some stretches in their last few games but have fell short because they can't get any offense from the other guys. Again, Kobe obviously took on the season knowing that he'll have to shoulder the scoring for LA. Utah is still in that rebuilding phase and teams like that is a hit-or-miss type of thing. Either they play really well or flat out suck, for our bet I do hope they play well.

Sacramento is decent. Tyreke was never healthy last season and so he wasn't able to follow up his strong rookie campaign. Give them a year or two more to sort their roster issues and get each player to learn their roles and you get your new OKC team.

Yes, I was about to post that but have to reply to inquiries first.

Boston Celtics +10.5 is the play!
