Conference Play:
YTD 38-32 (+9.51 units)
Sides 20-12
Totals 18-20
4-1 (2.5+ unit plays)
 
Wow. That is all I can say. 23 pts in final 1 minute to beat me by .5 pts. had UNDER 69.5 in 2nd half of Temple game. Worst beat I might have ever taken.  Had 47 pts with 1 min left...got to 70...disgusting...
 
Few games Im really liking tomorrow first glance...
 
GW +7...Charlotte shouldnt lay 7 to anyone sans FU
Richmond +9...good road team will slow the game down
La Salle +6.5...St joes is good, but not THAT good..La Salle is decent as well...too high...should be +3.5
 
Really like these 3....with La Salle a lot first peek.
 
GL all back later with more thoughts.

Hi Cruscrnshw, I understand that the Atlantic 10 is your domain, what are your thoughts on the Mass-St.Bonnie game?? I'm sort of leaning to home court at this point in time, what are your thoughts?

Crus,
 
I LOVE GW and LaSalle tomorrow bud.  LU might not show it on their record, but they are a petty damn good 3 pt shooting team this year, and should NEVER be +5 or more in a Big Five Palestra classic...not right at all.

Drizzle...I still like La Salle, but not like I thought i did....
 
delta, still looking at that bonnies games. Mass is really an up and down team this year so it makes it hard to bet on them or against them...I could see them winning by 10 or losing by 7...not sure there bud...but if I have a good thought i will let u know

I wouldn't be to thrown off by the neutral court situation.  The Palestra might as well be called the 2nd home of the Hawks.  LaSalle doesn't have much of a........fan base.  I would say 30% or under will be filled with Explorer fans tomorrow.  I'm thinking about LaSalle ML right now to tell you the truth.

Crus,

In the Palestra, at that line, I think its a fair number. I am hoping people take it down by just taking the under dog. I think LaSalle is a good team but dont expect them to hold St.Joes to the low number that Temple did and if they arent hitting 3's, this might become ugly. Agree with Drizz that C-Lotte shouldn't be that high, i dont care who they are playing.

La Salle can be good and have their moments. I for some reason thought La Salle was at home..clearly not...St Joes is playing some good ball and I credit Martelli for this. LEast talented team he has had in a long time and still doing his thing. Outside of Nivins, no one really scares you.
 
La Salle +6.5 is not a bad bet...I kind of like the under though...
 
Some new leans:
GW +7
La Salle +6.5
Richmond +9
URI/STL OVER 137
STJ/La Salle UNDER 136.5
 
I hate the Xavier game. Fordham might not get to 50 so I dont think I can touch the Over (wont bet under in fordham games)...and I dont know when X will call off the dogs.
 
Dont have a real feel for the Mass game. Probably laying off...at least the side I will...
 
4theluv...Im tryign to remember and I think they did...it was St. joes but that might not have been in the palestra??? not sure ....

I will be looking at St Joes unders from now on. Their starters are playing obscene minutes...Nivins averaging 39 mpg in conference. martelli isnt stupid..he is slowing games down....gotta keep these guys fresh...

What do you think about over in Fordham/Xavier at 142? I think X could easily put up 90 points at home against the non-existent D of Fordham.

Also like UMass, I know they've been garbage on the road but they always find a way to obliterate St Bonnies

Crus, i lost three years on the end of my life with that Temple game. I'm excited because I think they have a chance tomorrow against Duquesne.

Fordham/Xavier over is something im looking at especially since X is gonna put up 80 on the Rams.

Also, did you get my pm? You think you might be down?

What about St. Louis bro.  I think 11 is way too many for URI to be giving the Billikens.  Any thoughts?

I saw somewhere that Mekongo Mbala is out for Lasalle tomorrow. How big a factor is he for Lasalle? One less big to throw at Nivins and i believe he's their leading rebounder? Didn't St. Joe's just play in this building Thursday? Does that give them an advantage. Appreciate your thoughts.

PoPo...I dont think I am going to touch it as stated above. I think Fordham could have MAJOR difficulties getting to 50...and X may want to let their bench get a little burn, and rest their major guys mid 2nd half. I can see a low 80's-low 50's game...cant touch that over...but wont bet under in a FU game.
 
Blake...I lost 3 years after I had the 2nd half under and they dropped 23 pts in final minute to beat me by .5 pts. So weak.Got your PM..definitely interested. Just havent had a great chance to look. Will do today.
 
GLewis...11 pts is a lot. Id take em...but I wont bet against URI...
 
Hairnell...mbala is a decent player, but they have so many of those type of guys...one of many can drop 15...but it is a bit of concern...and yes St. joes plays there this year...gives them an advantage. Better play is the UNDER IMO...check what I said about their starters...

updated leans:
GW +7
La Salle +6.5
Richmond +9
URI/STL OVER 137
STJ/La Salle UNDER 136.5
Charlotte/GW UNDER 134 (just realized I wrote over last time)
 
Mass -2....check their starters from last game, Gaffney, Lowe, all rested much of the 2nd half. Lowe played only 18 mins, while TG and Harris were in the early 20's in minutes. Smart move by the coach...they are healthy today. Bonnies deflated from that blown lead to URI...Mass jumps back in the mix today IMO...
