    I took the Suns on the moneyline. I went to the grizzlies forum and they are even choosing the suns to win.

    Took the Suns ML as well. I'm surprised the Grizzlies are favored with their decimated front court

    That's what front court depth does to you. Glad I stayed away from that game.

    Gasol-Randolph-Koufos-Davis-Leuer is really solid.

    DEN has been good lately. Especially depleted teams like Brooklyn just can't keep up with them.

    I had GS (-7.5). What a sucker bet, lol. I've always felt they are a pretender and Klay Thompson will fall down at some point. Should have stayed away.

    Just pray a meaningless last second shot doesn't beat the spread. I hate that.

    Any bets for today? I like Dallas at +2. NOP is without davis, which means zero defense.

    I took Spurs@Min -3.5 (but I see the line has moved to -5 today). It is called a road game but it is in Mexico City so it's actually a neutral game.

    Anybody got anything for today? I think I'll stay away from today's games.

    NYK - BKN: BKN is slight favourite here (-1), but the game can go either way as both teams are in serious disarray. I'd favor NYK since BKN is without four important players, but you never know how lazy can NYK get.

    MIA-CHI: I'm hesitant to take MIA -4.5 line...they are without Butler and Rose and MIA seems to always rebound well after a loss, but it seems like Chicago is super motivated every time they play MIA. They don't have Robinson anymore though and were crappy home team last season, so who knows...

    LAC-MEM: Another tough game. MEM is without frontcourt, but they decimated PHX with frontcourt reserves. Meanwhile, LAC is playing 2nd game of B2B...I'd go with MEM here since they probably have some momentum from PHX game and LAC will be favoured, but it's so unpredictable...

    I like Miama -4.5 also. Could be a trap game, but its still a very generous line. Also took the over on Brooklyn-New York, O-189.

    So far this season the Suns have one of the best perimeter d in the league but also one of the worst defenses inside.

    It might turn out to be a high scoring game but I think the Clippers will take care of them.

    When King1 posts something and actually says he likes Miami alot, I'd have to turn my head twice.

    The Bulls at home beat the Heat last season without Rose & Noah. Trap game is trap game.

    I also like the over 192 but I wasn't able to get the bet in in time.
