LAL/Mem post should read:

LAL/Mem 2H U 91.5 for the halftime total, messed it up a little in my haste. Either way, it should be a split. What happened to the Lakers tonight? Are they even playing, or did a college women's team take their place? I can't tell.

What do you think about Boston +9. They took Detroit earlier in this year to a very close game and lost on a buzzer beater, but this time it's in Detroit. Any thoughts they will still match up well?

enjoying your picks, and you seem to be one of the few people on free pick sites that is doing well.

what do you think about toronto +10 @ philadelphia?? raptors have been absolutely horrendous (i had a thread about pounding raptors and it's proven to work 100% since opening night i believe)... however, in our OT loss to seattle, i think we came up with some combinations and styles that really seemed to click (basically 2 PG system with calderon/james together. villaneuva, bosh, mo pete all very athletic. so it might really click).. i think i see a point spread swing on raptors coming.

two of the worst defenses in NBA. we are absolutely awful.

Last night: 6-1 +4.9u
YTD: 57-37 +12.1u

Finally a great night! Already have 3 plays for today posted yesterday, also looking at some others. Should have taken Sac when they were just -7.5 against Utah, since I wanted to fade Utah anyway. Line's moved big already though. Also a little scared of Sac, who has been horrible this season. May play it anyway just because Utah is so bad right now. Debating that and a couple others.

Thanks for the words. There'll probably be a let down after a good night last night, but hopefully things are starting to look up for the season.

Your Toronto thread was great, with them being 0-6 ATS. They suck. That being said, they did give Seattle a good run for their money (although Sea sucks too), and lines may be inflated against them. 10+ is a lot of points, and they could well cover. I'm not impressed by Phi, but they have won their last 4 against some pretty good competition. So I'm not going to try and catch a falling knife with Tor. Whatever happens tonight should give a good read for tomorrow when they face each other again anway.

As for Boston, I think they get killed tonight, but I don't think I'm playing it at the high line set. I think the close game last time was just a normal case of good teams having a tougher time on the road. Det also only beat Portland by 3 on the road. But at home, they dominate. I can't see them shooting under 40% again while letting Pierce go off for more than 50%.

All just one person's opinion.

Took Sac -9. Would have been 2u at -7, only 1u at -9.

Sac 1H -5

Well done so far, Llaab. Considering Utah shot 29% from the field last night, don't you think they're a much better team, relatively speaking, than the 73-62 loss indicated? Sac giving 10-10.5, I just don't know.
