(And the Knicks do not have to win tonight given they go nowhere near 12 deep. That is why we need the cushion.)

It was there last night when I posted. 10 is fine and if the only thing available is 9.5, that's ok.

You should get the best line but I don't cap for 1 pt wins or losses.

just a trend i picked up on, if you wanna call it that. 
Lets go knicks

If you are a fan, next year will be as bad as this one, but not worse. The best thing that can happen is Melo leaving and then clearing the books of all bad contracts in 2015, and then trading expiring contracts to get back in the draft.

gamblorman,how frickin pedantic can you possibly be???quibbling over wen a generation starts and ends???......lebron will EASILY be widely considered one of the 2 greatest players to ever pick up a basketball by the time he is done...there is already sumwat of a consensus for it now,just half-way thru his career...hahahaha,all the idiotic,irrational lebron detractors got me pissing my pants at their ridiculous little jibes and personal attacks.
durant is an epic scorer and astonishing talent at that size but it is laughable to suggest he offers the same all-round game in all categories that james does.......name a single player in the history of the game that does all of the things to the same level that james does??and with the physical gifts/tools that he possesses??

and no im not a lebron fan,just not blind.....he wudnt even be in my top 5 of favourite players to watch

Nice write up............geez you should write novels.  I agree with everything you say.  But I had an open tease and finished it last night with who else but the Heat.  I thought about it long and hard and I was thinking if the Heat have rest also. Last game they played was last weekend vs the Bulls when Bron sat out. So both teams have plenty of rest.  Plus Bron is itching to play since he sat out.  I dont think the mask will be a big deal. He has played with one before.  I also think Felton being out will put the Knicks a little outta sync. So my problem was Heat -4 or Knicks +16.  16 looked very very tastey but I just cant trust the Knicks.  I think it will either be close or they will get destroyed.  So the 10+ cushion has plenty of value because the Knicks def have a chance of sticking around. But I had no choice but to back one of the best players and teams in the league.

HEAT-4

Good luck.  always like your insight

All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy

I want to remind everyone here posters like BWS are ADULTS by law, but by law only, because they live their entire lives as children.

Coming from the person who acts like a child tugging on the adults pant legs screaming for attention.   Respect your picks, loathe your overblown write ups.

My line is currently sitting at 8.5 NY. Does anybody else line drop this low.  Should I pull the trigger Scal with 8.5?  Maybe I should ask Felton about pulling the trigger.

And what did you do with your thumbs for those two hours? Stick them up your a**? Who's better off for that?

There's a thing called ADVERTISING in America and the world.

If you write a book, you don't finish it and put it under your couch cushion. YOU PROMOTE IT to show people the work you put into it. Got it? Is that too hard to understand? Are all the world's authors at attention who res?

5 players that eclipse lebron james (relevant to the time in which they played) - michael jordan, larry bird, wilt chamberlain, kareem abdul jabbar, magic johnson.

You cannot tell me that lebron is actually better than any of these players. The man has supreme athletic ability. But as far as legacy goes, I doubt he will be remembered within that group.

Im not disagreeing that he is a great player. But the greatest player? I dont think he is.
