Oklahoma City @ Portland under 193.5 for 6 units... Last year these teams played each other 4 times and played to the under @ 3 to 1. In those 4 games the Thunder averaged 86.25ppg and the Blazers averaged 88.75ppg. Both of these teams pretty much have the same player's on their roster's as they did 1 year ago and that lead's me to believe that even though this number has been set in a lower bracket for total's this number is still higher than all 4 totals set last season of 186.5, 191, 190 & 186.5. The Blazer's have a 8-1 record to the under in their last 9 games while the Thunder have started out this new season playing to the over in 4 straight contests (Utah, Clipper's, Pistons % the Bull's) in which 3 of those teams just do not have the talent base of playing ggod defense. The Blazer's are currently ranked 4th on defense so far this season only allowing 92ppg and playing to the under as I stated above 3 times to 1. Although the Thunder have started out the season on the slide on the defensive side of the ball allowing 106.5ppg so far I think they can get in gear tonight on that side of the ball as the Blazer's rank just 18th in the league offensively at 98ppg while the Thunder are just 2 spots ahead of them sitting at 16th and averaging 100.5ppg. These team's seem to understand each other's offenses very well and I fully expect a slower paced game and lot's of half court set up's with an excellent shot at staying under the total tonight especially since the book's seem to be giving us a valued number compared to last year's game's...POD

Chicago -7 for 4 units... When I look at the Knicks line up I see nothing past the like's of Amare Stoudemire & Wilson Chandler as Raymond Felton is nothing more than a mediocre PG in this league while the reliability factor is in panic IMO because if Amare & Chandler don't put up monster number's this team will not compete as they still have no defensive structure at all IMO. Yet all this being said the Bull's offense seems to have found that NBA status of complete structure as tehy just dropped 110pts on teh Blazer's their last game out which is no easy task and so far this season the Bulls are averaging 102ppg while shooting 48% from the field as a team. Derrick Rose is a superstar in this league and should have a big advantage over Felton tonight. While Joakim Noah has turned into an absolute rebounding machine, so that 42% from the field that the Knick's have been shooting this season should be right about their or lower tonight as the Bulls are holding opponents to just 40% on the season on defensive meaning I think that Joakim Noah could actually better his rediculous rebound number's tonight as the Knic's just don't shoot well as a team. As for depth the Bulls also seem to have that in player's like Luol Deng ( 20.7ppg) , Taj Gibson ( 13ppg , 4.7rpg & 65%fg) , Kyle Korver ( 50%3pt) , C.J. Watson ( 5.3ppg) , James Johnson ( 5ppg & 5rpg) , Ronnie Brewer, Keith Bogans & Brian Scalabrine even hgive this team much added depth IMO. I think laying -7 with the Bulls at home is nothing short of the correct play IMO tonight...

KOVER 50% FROM THE ARC----------A little inflated. He had one good game when he went 2 for 4. He'll probably end up near 40% for the year. He did have a great year at Utah last season.

I still must just be impressed with his last season in Utah shooting 59 for 110 from 3pt land in 52 games played for 53.6%. We can go ahead and say it's inflated compared to his 3 year stint in Utah as he went 235 for 565 from 3pt land for an average of 41.5%. He also shoot 548 for 1188 in Utah overall from the field for an average of 46%. One of the best jump shooter's the game has today and he is just another weapon the Bull's are lucky to have this season IMO. Could we actually say that his 2 for 4 start this season from 3pt land is actually deflated from his last year's number's ( that would be technically speaking). You are right though teh botom line is we shall not see another 50% plus season from 3pt land but it's no secret that boy can shoot and Utah will miss him dearly IMO...

I failed to mention the Bulls other center Omer Asik wo played 26min's with 6pts, 7rb's and 3blk's against portland the other night. He seems to be meshing well in his role as well...
