@t6p i do like the Lakers tonight. Tough spot for the Mavericks tonight as they play the Lakers in the sandwich game between the Rockets and Warriors (Warriors game tomorrow). I KINDA wonder if they go all out today in hopes of getting a W knowing they prob don't stand a chance in Oracle tomorrow. I kinda don't think this will be the case as Barnes and Bogut will be playing their former team so I think they'll be more invested tomorrow than today. Idk. I think Dallas is a bit too injured at the moment to back them, even against the Lakers. When final injury report comes out and we have a better idea of who is playing, I will make a decision. But same narrative as the Utah game, I think the Lakers have value at this point because of their skid recently. Loved the way they played against Utah but would like to see Russell take a better game winning shot so my ML bet would have cashed too haha
 
It hurts. Harrison is a pretty decent defender but he doesn't have Conley's lateral quickness. He's bigger which makes up for some of it, but relatively speaking Conley does an okay job on Westbrook. Hopefully Harrison can make Russ work hard for what he gets. Obviously the #'s still gonna be there but hopefully he makes him work and his jumper suffers late in the game.

Conley is better offensively too than Harrison, need Gasol to have a big game.
Tony Allen is gonna guard Russ, bruh

Edit I don't know this for fact but I really don't see why he wouldn't guard Westbrook in this game. Why have the best one on one defender in the league guard Roberson or Morrow

Good point. Although Conley has historically checked Russ at least some of the time on the defensive end. One of the issues with it can be if OKC opts to keep Westbrook on Harrison at that end of the floor. Allen is then forced to pick up Russ every time down despite the fact they will often be on opposite sided of the floor at the other end. Westbrook gets out in transition so quickly that asking Allen to pick him up from what will often be weird spots on the floor can be tough.

But they still will probably start out with Allen on him, I agree.

Nice breakdown, thanks. Sounds like Dirk and Bogut may both be out. I'm gonna hold off for now but I do like LA in this spot.
 
Westbrooks PRA prop is 52.5?! Idk that seems like way too much, no?

Idk how much of a diff Bogut and Dirk make when they both play sparingly anyway since they're coming off of an injury. I think I'll be on the Lakers but I don't wanna lay 3. Maybe I can parlay their ML w another team. Got any thoughts? Don't wanna take Raptors though
 
Hornets look lethargic. Hopefully they can make a flukey run so we can get a nice 2H line on the Heat. I'll be on that almost for sur
 
Wooo! 2-0 Memphis to start the game. Great start, Memphis!!

Hmm. I was thinking about doing a ML parlay and leaving an open spot. Those have been working well for me. Not sure Toronto covers and Jazz wouldn't even be worth it.

Yea I noticed you doing that a couple of times this week. Are those open ones still open or have you closed them up?

I just saw Dillashaw's odds get a bit better so I used two on him. Still have two open.
 
Had no bet on it, but wow do I love watching fat ass Bielema's Razorbacks meltdown and blow a 24-0 nothing halftime lead LOL. Just awesome.
 
Great half, Memphis. Please, as someone who has been burned a lot recently, dont have a meltdown in the second

@t6p im gonna go in for 1.5u on the Lakers ML w an open spot if the Memphis bet looks good prior to tip off
 
Hahahahaahahah westbrook ejected. Gg OKC

At this point I have to:

0.5 Lakers ML/open spot

GL guys.

Westbrook ejected, Memphis has to win this.
 
Added Play:
Parlay: Lakers ML (-170) + [open spot]
Risk: 1u
 
In my smaller book I have a prop for total points, rebounds, and assists for Harrison Barnes o/u 27.5. Strongly considering throwing half a unit on the over as the Lakers play no defense and they have a hard time against SFs to begin with. Anyone care to chime in?
 
Blue Jackets. 14 wins in a row.

I don't follow Hockey as closely as other sports, but man the Blue Jackets are like a printing press for dollars. I also did a Blue Jackets+Stars+Wild Parlay for the hell of it...and it hits.

Now just need the Lakers to close out another very nice day.
