I can't see Miami not showing up for this game. Thursday or not, last game or not - I can see that the line moves are book initiated and are artificially driven as well. They made it from Miami +2 -110 into Miami +2.5 -115. Stealing the eye. LBJ would wanna prove something after yesterday's milestone.
Final: MIAMI Heat +2.5 (-115) 230$

In the Lakers game I have lots of ego will take the place on court. Kobe will be playing against LBJ on the heels of the nigh when LBJ became a youngest 20000 fraternity member. The odds makers knows and set the line on a players performance on Kobe at 30.5 points!!! In January he averages 29 points and at all sporting 29.9 in last 10 games. But the most interesting stat is that in wins he averages 26.2 points in 36.7 minutes and in losses he averages 32.9 points in 42.2 minutes.
Interesting angle

I'm sure lots of people did when the lines opened at -17. Now, if you're talking about the people posting here, I believe greengiants did, and perhaps washhead and ocer12 as well.

Yes indeed I did. And I'm still feeling good about it.

Mavin with the line at +125 why not go 115 on the 2.5 and 100 on the ML?

Lots of reasons for this bet like total domination of the Suns over the Bucks in Phoenix for years, but the biggest reason is that when the Bucks needed a quick fix - the Suns were there for an interim coach Boylan allowing the Bucks a major comeback to rap up the win. In NBA you have to return a favor
Final:
PHOENIX Suns ML (-105) 105$

This thread has become home for many people who prefer exchange opinions, ask questions and better themselves in handicapping in absolutely civil environment.
Period.
To all those asking to make a new thread - No.
This thread has become home for many people who prefer exchange opinions, ask questions and better themselves in handicapping in absolutely civil environment.
For an example - look at Keithprochaska asking and Dexter, Washead and Eaglequill responding - anywhere else with other threaders it would end up in belittling and bashing - here we enjoy it. And no, I am not the owner of the ads in a middle like Mr Einstein (powerade) has suggested here and later to the mods, and I'm not working with covers and I'm not from Mars neither

True that.
As a daily reader I just don't like everyone keep tracking their plays/records in this thread!
One thing is to discuss Mavin picks and our owns etc; other thing is trying to get some attention by posting daily recaps on their plays etc! I just don't see the point there....

Looking like all the games are coming under today unless the lakers break the trend- the suns looks under.
If the suns game stays under (tough) and bucks win (tougher) it could set up a good second half bet on lakers mia as it would mean that all the visitors won and all went under- happy thursday
