Today same good games, but like:

CHI - SHA under 188 / last lose hurt bobcats a lot and CHI play slow post game offence, but bobcats only score on transition and same drives. Only guards and SF positions earn them points.
SAS - BRO under 197.5 both team play solid D and BRO play a lot post game from Lopez and Blache. Slow the game down. SAS are b2b and are coming home after blow out win. SAS stars shoud have limited minutes, couse b2b for them and couch POP' will safe their bodys.
SAS - BRO bro +9.5

I think good plays are

First Half/Full Time SU

Spurs/Spurs
Thunder/Thunder
Heat/Heat

2/3 and 3/3 = 4 bets

Houston SU or by 3-4 points win is also good bet!

Yes, it seems very ilogical. But you know how miami is playing. And you know what is strange to me? That still oddsmakers didn´t put the lines yet. But well, I hope Orlando is ML positive to bet on it.

Thanks for your continual attention to this thread, Mavin. I'm sure you have a life of your own to attend to. I, too, am an action junkie, but I'm hoping, by continually reading your threads, that I learn to settle it down and take the games as they come. On this site, you're an inspiration. The ratio of good to bad is about 1 to 100 on this site and you, sir, are one of the decent ones.

Thanks again. Keep doing what you're doing.

Early lean for me is Indiana +1.5. Not sure if I am playing yet. I did already play Rockets -4 as I anticipate that line moving up.

Thanks. Happy New Year!!!

I'm looking at the Under in Indiana, Over in Chicago, Under in SA, and OKC covering at home the game but not the first half. Only looking. The Nets to cover in SA at least the first half as well and Houston covering at home, Orlando covering but not winning. May be the first half cover is the safest.

Agree mostly - have doubts about the under in Chicago as I think the Over is due

That's ok if you also support it with Bro/Spurs and Magic/Heat bets. The odds are like +425 on each and you covered with you picks. As long as the Spurs and Heat win. But then if you sure that will happen - why not parlay or tease?

My opinion of course

Expect the unexpected. May be you right here - but assuming is easy and calling a spot play in an inner state game - be careful. May be play is Miami but I would not connect my parlays wit

h that game

I'd rather enjoy that game watching it than being nervous about any of the side covering or winning ML. May be the HT. But we will see if some m=new info kicks in!
