Eryximaque 37-32-1

UTA Jazz -9

Under 200 UTA Jazz - POR T'Blazers

Well, today i see Utah cover, they have a strong motivation with playoff.
They have à good offense in paint, with 4th rank point in paint per game last 3 games.
And Portland have the worst defense in paint especially without Aldridge. Therefore Portland have to 3point a lot to win, and LIlliard/Batum are not bad. But they are on the road. Portland, though, has averaged just 86.7 points while shooting 18 for 65 (27.7 percent) from 3-point range during its three-game slide in Salt Lake City.
Quote :

"We have to make it more of a priority in these last nine games to play more of a solid game especially on defense," Blazers coach Terry Stotts told the team's official website. Rest for both, + monday games = under

Think this game will be tough, But Portland will give up easily, and Utah wont slow down the game, especially at home.

  • Under is 5-0 in the last 5 meetings in Utah.
  • Under is 6-2 in Jazz last 8 home games.
  • Under is 3-1-1 in Trail Blazers last 5 road games.

  • Trail Blazers are 3-7 ATS in the last 10 meetings in Utah.
  • Trail Blazers are 2-5 ATS in the last 7 meetings.
  • Jazz are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games overall.
  • Jazz are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 home games.
  • Jazz are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 1 days rest.
  • Trail Blazers are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games overall.

My prediction should be 106 - 93 

Bol everyone ! 

Great job washhead didnt bet on Wash, so tight from me !

(Again apologize for my english..)

washhead 5-0

LA Clippers -4

This is right in line with the games I've been hot with recently -- a strong home team against a road team in a bad spot, playing to cover a small line.  LAC are strong at home (28-8 overall, 4-1 last five), and they're coming back to Staples after 4 straight on the road.  They're also in a dogfight for first-round home court advantage, so they should be motivated to make the most of their last few remaining home games. 

Indiana is playing their fourth straight road game (in 6 nights), and they've won the first 3 against weaker competition (DAL, HOU, PHX).  I don't think they'll be able to cap a perfect road swing, and I see a letdown tonight in LA.

Today I will go with the Grizzlies against all biased Spurs who gave a game away yesterday as the Big Bosses had it marked since they were given the game in Miami to cover this season earlier. I like this because it gives me a better perspective as how the games are decided on the table of the board room (most)

MEM Grizzlies -3  1H

Boston Celtics will be playing in Minnesota and I am not so sure about the game but the first half belongs to the locals IMO

MIN T'Wolves -2.5  1H

LAC Clippers -4

SA Spurs +5.5

TOR Raptors -6.5

clippers i agree with washhead on.. pacers are on end of a good roadtrip..and clippers best team they faced on it.. i was on PHO when indiana didn't cover there either.. there content with the strong road trip.. and clips best team they've faced on the trip..
spurs after last nights debacle i have bouncing back here. maybe not winning but they have pride and feel they'll show up for the grizzlies, more of a gut play here.

as for raptors.. well im fading the pistons more as they are just complete garbage.. i know raptors aren't great but at home i think they should handle detroit.. that is of course if the raptors are playing for anything in their heads anymore..

Musicmatt1  49-56-1

 

MIL Bucks  -12

 

Over 192 MIN Timberwolves - BOS Celtics

 

LA Clippers  -4

 

As we have more teams clinching playoff seeds, we have had less ATS covers by Home playoff contenders.  Bucks have not clinched at this point, and I think they are looking to build some momentum entering the playoffs.

 

According to my data, a non playoff team at home has only been favored 3 times versus a playoff contender since March 18, 2013.  All 3 road playoff contenders won these matchups but more importantly, the Over hit.  Only thing that worries me is how streaky the Celtics shooters are, hoping they are on tonight after being off last night.

 

The Clippers lost 3 of 4 on their recent road trip including the last 2.  This is their first game back at home and they desperately need a win here to stop this slide.  Similar to Grizzlies who beat Rockets this past Friday.

If that's the case, wouldn't Boston +4.5 be just as strong a play as the Over?

Indeed!  But in general, Playoff teams on the road have a better chance of going over than covering the spread.  The Celtics will be without their 3 best players from last year, which I think hurts the defense and increases the pace a bit.

 I personally like Boston in this one seeing how they have owned Minnesota. Not sure what happened to them yesterday vs NY, they will bounce back here tonight. I see the total has moved up in this game, which I kinda like it rising because I feel this will end in Under. Boston in the last 5 meetings in Minnesota have all played under by a fair way's vs the total set for game. This is a team they can slow down from scoring a bunch. Totals there have gone under the posted totals there by 11,24,5, 11 and 16. With none of those games reaching today's posted mark. Which I first seen on wclc lines at 189 which it's actually at 192 now online. I am seeing a final around 92 Bos-88 minny for a grand total of 180.

Right on.  I'm staying away from this one.  There are arguments to made for the over and the under and I can't decide.  Good luck!

But wouldn't Boston's last 5 meetings in Minnesota include Pierce and Garnett?  Not to mention that Minnesota plays in the Western conference, so wouldn't their last 5 in Minnesota span over some years?  These 2 teams are very different today, than even this point last year.

I'm not disagreeing that the Under could hit, but I think if that is the case, it is because both teams are shooting poorly.

So when u bet it, u didnt know king and flash are out ( or your line would be -9). So how is your reason for a pick that they r out?

Also i thought u have to post lines that r available at the time of posting? Or anybody can just put the best available line there was and say they that this is the line they bet it.
