YTD  24-14 ( +23.95 units )

 

ATLANTA +6 ( 2 units )

I don't want to take anything away  from the sixers 6-1 ATS home record but you do have to take a look of whom they beat. Five of those teams were Wash,Mil,Sac,Det and Tor. They lost outright against the Nuggets and beat the Pacers by 10. They've been a chalk in all 7 home games ranging from -6 to -13 virtually agaisnt teams with losing records. So are they worthy of being a 6 point favorite. According to my charts not against the Hawks. ATLANTA IS THE PLAY HERE.

MEMPHIS -3.5 ( 1 unit )

I seldom lay points on the road but I gotta make an exception here. This is reasonable price considering the Pistons are the worst team in the league, or at least in my opinion. No chemistry whatsoever. Their best player just might be Greg Monroe who gets his ass kicked in the post. The pistons average home margin of loss is 15.4 points a game.

 GOOD LUCK EVERYONE. I MIGHT ADD A FEW MORE GAMES WAITNG FOR THE THE REST OF THE LINES TO COME OUT. WILL POST THEM ON THIS THREAD

With you on Memphis. Detroit is terrible, and Memphis seems to have found a little groove now that they are used to life without Randolph in the middle.

U say Philly has beaten crap teams, but you fail to mention that the Hawks have played Minnesota, Toronto, Detroit and Portland since Horford went down, and all at home.

Philly -6

Like it a little,but the return of Anthony might give the Knicks a spark. I'm passing on this one.

I agree with you that Atlanta hasn't beaten the cream of the crop but at the same time you mention they've done this without Horford !!!!!!!!!!! Now doesen't that mean anything to you ? Have you watched any Atlanta games? Haven't Smith and Johnson stepped it up . Ok so what we have are two teams with misleading wins. No problem I'll gladly take the points .

44 Dimes do you use public betting trends in picking your plays?
44-dimes says:

Perhaps the Wizards winning SU as an 11 point dog against the Thunder is giving some credibility to any given home underdog. After all the Home teams are 14-6 SU in the last 3 days. I think the line is correct eventhough I've seem some 4s popping up on my screen. I wouldn't lay anything much higher

Kind of like Philly in this spot... Atlanta off a big win... Philly off a big loss..

Also really like Pistons in this spot.... either 3 1/2 is trap line for Grizzlies backers.. or books are trying to give a little money back to the public... every point of your write up backs up my position... there should be noway they are only a 3 1/2 point dog...

whatever happens GL today 44dimes

Biggest issue here I think is whether Hawes plays as i believe he will be the difference in the game.

Teague underrated, Johnson overlooked, Smith stepping up huge since Al went down.  I like Atl +6

PHILLY !!

Chew on this :

ATS 1 DAY REST : ATL 2-6

                               PHI 5-2

ATS: ATL away 4-3

          PHI home 6-1

Dirty Birds most inconsistent team I wouldn't drop a dime on 'em!

GLTA!
