im mulling this one over a bit,i probably chuck sumthin on it just on your recommendation.certainly wont go against ya.but good luck either way,hoping it hits
.....oh,and just turn your computer off at the wall through quarters one thru 3 and a half..it'll just make it easier that way not to get infected by all the morons and doom'n'gloom merchants that will infiltrate the thread from miles around....you do realise you can actually become stoopider just by reading such posts??
It's the Heat. I understand the trepidation. But how do you think the Heat would do at Memphis right now, with a full roster like they had against the Knicks. Would it be a blowout? Do you think the Mavs could give them a run for their money? They did just recently before the Mavs blew their load in the 4th. The Knicks lost to both teams by a combined 7 point, 2 for a Dirk brick that should have never dropped. The point is, the Knicks are showing up lately against good and/or surging WC teams.
Now they play an EC team who is their MAIN rival and who they are MOST familiar with and who've they've covered 4 of 6 against.
And they are getting a very large line that the Heat cover at only a 33% rate this year.
That is in addition to everything I have in the OP which is a boatload of bullets for the Knicks to take out the Heat.
Even if A LOT goes wrong; if they control the three (they won't stop it, they can't) they will get inside this number.
