    There are too many injuries and even the odds makers are thinking this game with this line is close to a coin flip.

    Not a good situation for betting.

    For 11 games in a row, Lillard has between 11 and 15 total dimes and rebounds and this game he gets 9, fml. Doesn't help that Blake had 8 dimes and 0 pts and tons of people missed Lillard assisted shots.

    How much money you think the refs had on the Knicks tonight to not blow the whistle on the last play of the game?

    Unreal tonight, hit all those 3 with unbelievable fashion.

    Cavs cover by 1 point.

    Bulls cover by half pt with Gasol missing a FT with 2.5 seconds left.

    And even Hornets, covered with a 53 pts of first half.

    Its good to be lucky.

    Good for you. I had a roller coaster of a night chasing 6 units of early losses to almost felting this particular account just to get healthy, but still down almost 6 units on the night, lol.

    Damn Kim, stay away from those prop bets. Can we get a ClutchFans consensus pick on Denver over Chicago tomorrow? Majority will be on the Bulls, but I'm really liking the Nuggets in this spot.

    Also, OKC is now 30-1 to win the NBA championship! Anybody biting on that one or am I a fool for even considering it?

    I might tease Denver. And 30-1? Where is that? Give me a piece of that...I only have 7.5-1 online. At 30-1, there are probably hedging opportunities upcoming.

    At Vegas Insider they updated it today and have it as 30-1, but that can't be accurate, can it?

    http://www.vegasinsider.com/nba/odds/futures/

    At Boavada they have it as 16-1, but they usually have crap odds:

    I'll have to do some more research.

    Since the Rockets came back from Mexico and played 6 games with lots of injuries, I foun out something very interesting.

    ** The UNDER for the second half of the Rockets game and also go against Rockets for second half spread is MONEY **

    Check out below stats for the second half total and Rockets point scored.

    I think we should take a look at this when we will play the Kings and Clips.

    =================

    Knicks
    Ttl : 80
    Rox : 40

    Mavs
    Ttl : 76
    Rox : 35

    Lakers
    Ttl : 90
    Rox : 41

    Grizz
    Ttl : 105 (first half : 107)
    Rox : 51

    Thunders
    Ttl : 59
    Rox : 27

    76ers
    Ttl : 81
    Rox : 41

    I think this is related to the Rockets playing style this year - more focus on Defense.

    So you will see the shoots are going down more (especially 3 pts) in the first half but with the stamina is going down, more than often we will have difficulties to score in the second half.

    In the last few games when we won, defense is the key in the last 5-7 minutes, as we basically shut down our opponents, not our offense.

    Holy ****, almost every teams playing tonight had big injuries, especially the bulls.

    Gibson is out, Noah is questionable, Hinrich is questionable, Gasol and Rose both probable.

    WTF!

    Wilson Chandler 12.5pts o/u (-115 both ways). I took the over for 5 units. He has 14 pts in the 1st half. Feels good.
