Cavs and Raps 1h

21-17

Teams coming off the road are struggling in 1st game back at the comforts of home. No fans to get them pumped up, good fat home cooking and drinking to get a lil lazy. Murder Hornets have spent almost the entire Holidays away Christmas and New Years and now finally get back to the Big Easy off a good win at OKC and are waking up to face a team that they already beat. Meanwhile Raps are suffering some lingering effects I think of not being able to go home as they play the entire 1st half of season in a non descript arena in Tampa Bay, talk about depressing. I think the Tampa ay Raptors catch a sluggish NO team at the right spot here to get it going early and often.

58-55 Raps at the half

Raps -.5 1st half

Atl coming off 2 hard fought games at New Jersey where their starters played a lot of minutes now off that great win yesterday and just rolling with this new and exciting line up and yet only -6 against lowly rested Cavs...something is fishy. If there ever was a letdown spot this might be it for the Hawks.

Cavs +6

Good luck on your plays!

Happy New Year buddy.

GL tonight. Hard game to cap that Pelicans/Raptors game. Toronto had them by the neck in that first meeting and then collapsed losing the 2H 63-42 which is just nuts. Bit of payback maybe for the Raptors.

The NBL in Oz starts next week and NZ Breakers also play in our comp and they are staying over in Oz as well (similar to Toronto) for several months to make sure the league can start. Must be tough for these guys missing family and just the normal surroundings of life

HNY Oz man!

Tampa Bay Raptors TT over 54.5 1st half

@StraightWagers

 was the 21-17 ml or a cap spread ?

because this was a pick game for half time it makes a difference 

not sure of your question sorry Juwwi, I had Raps -.5 1st half and their TT over

oh I understand now, 21-17 is my record, and I bet some ML dogs +290 that I hit 2 so far never minus big ML, sorry Juwwi

thanks monkee!

@StraightWagers

@StraightWagers

 thanks , in my defense lm posting from Ireland and it's 2:00am here and Im in my 10th day of a new strategy that Im trying to increase my waistline and BMI by drinking beer to skip a few places up the vaccine priority list 

that sounds like a solid strategy haha I'm in my 2nd night of a dry January that I do every year so we're headed in opposite directions! I love Ireland and hope to get there some day. Cheers Juwwi and best of luck to you and your plays
