    Lot's involved, LA lost a tough one on the road, (after playing right back when teammate died on the field previous week) playoff implications, home game versus a road team who's 5-5 ATS and 0-2 as road favorite vs LA 2-0 as home dog and 7-3 ATS...LA lost the cover on Nash's last drive...Today, time to pay the piper...Or pay back the wolfman...Good luck, as always, let's bang !!!

  2. It's playoff time! I was 17-10-1 (6-2-1 on Larger Plays) last year in the playoffs, so let's see if I can improve on that mark! Not a very good season overall for me, but I will be back next year stronger than ever! Here we go with my first NBA playoff play (for whatever reason, I always seem to lose my first play, so let's hope I change that today):

    INDIANA +3

    Opinions on other games:

    DETROIT -9

    DALLAS -5

    SEATTLE -3.5

    Series Plays:

    INDIANA +110 (Pacers win in 6) (Reggie Miller in crunch time in his last playoff run along with a bunch of tough players who have fought all year, even w/o their best players for half the year: I like my chnaces here)

    DALLAS -210 (Mavericks win in 7) (tough matchup for the Rockets; I was hoping to get them against the Sonics)

    Opinions on other series:

    Pistons in 5 (Philly has no chance, but no value here)

    Heat in 6 (N.J. will push the Heat, but not enough to stop the Diesel; no value here)

    Bulls in 7 (this one is too tough to call; the Wiz can definitely win this series)

    Spurs in 6 (as long as Duncan is healthy, you can forget about it; they are the best team)

    Suns in 6 (the Grizz will compete, but Phoenix will eventually run them into the ground)

    Sonics in 7 (the Kings have the playoff exp., but can they win a series away from home?)

  12. I love the playoffs !!

    Today I will play every game. I have had plenty time to think about these all and get my plays together.

    Indiana +3.5 ** - Agree with JD; Indiana have Oneal back and they are playing so so well right now getting points and superb performances from all their role players. Not playing this game as big as I was planning on though. First game tends to favour home team.

    Houston +6 *** - I just plain dont like Dallas as much as everyone has built them up. Rookie coach, doing well but at the end of a season against alot of teams that couldnt or didnt show to play. Houston have come up big ALL season long against ALL the top teams and ON THE ROAD. Houston is a genuine lock for me tonight. They slow it down tonight, too much for Dallas. More half court sets, and I just think Houston role players defend far better than Dalllas' plus the experience is a BIG BIG thing. TMac does it tonight. I really think they shock the mavs tonight with a SU win.

    Sonics -3.5 ** - Sac are bluffing their way so far. and seattle are so disrespected by the public and the bookies. Its a real case of not being able to let go of the mind-set that Sac are contenders. They are not. Sonics laying far too few points here - it should be 6.5 and that would be the right price. But lines are set based on the what the public money wants. Dont be fooled by this line. Sonics all the way tonight.

    Philly +9.5 * - toughest game for me to decide on. some injuries, and detroit just dont have that burst off the bench that they did last year. I believe C-Webb will produce tonight, not like he did in Sactown, but enough to give AI and co the chance to win the perimeter battle. Plus theres the Brown factor - philly really up for this and they play better away from those hyper critical fans... detroit win, but too big a number to cover.

    Series Matchups: Taking,

    Spurs in 7 - think this is so tricky, but a good test to overcome

    Phoenix in 5 - grizz no match, they split 4 games but 1 was without nash the other was at end of a long long road trip

    Indiana in 7 - Oneal is the key; that and reggie and jacksons outside shot

    Seattle in 6 - i just dont rate sac that highly. its a relatively new mix of guys playing together and i think seattle has the game to handle them

    Houston in 6 - houston take away homecourt adv and roll on through

    Miami in 6 - i'm really rooting for nets the way they played recently. I think they can give miami a couple tough games, but not any more than that.

    Detroit in 6 - philly will make it tough.

    Wizards in 7 tough games - just. cant like chicago without their starting frontcourt duo.

    gl, TQ :wink:

  13. Went 1-1 yesterday, but ended up a little with Indians winning at +105. MLB record now 9-4 +4.05 units. Here is what I like today:

    1) White Soxs (-105) 1 unit

    2) A's (+122) 1 unit

    3) Astros (+132) 1/2 unit - Line moved a lot in Cardinals favor, but willing to put a small play on Clemens even though Astros have struggled on the road.

    Will have NBA later.

    Good luck everyone!! :D
