also, looking at the craptors in chi town playing the injury riddled bulls. it now looks like noah's plantar fascitis is so bad he may not play the rest of the season...taj gibson is out deng is out, and rip hamilton is out.... brooklyn and the bulls are virtually locked into the 3 and 4 seeds, and regardless if they swap places, they still play each other first round of the playoffs, so i cant see the bulls covering this 4 1/2 pts and may lose outright. throw in the fact they have been worse ATS at home than on the road, and i lean to toronto. the total is currently at 185 1/2 an come down slightly from 186....as bettors digest the bulls lineup i expect the total may fall some more....throw into the mix david guthrie and brent narnaky, two solid over officials are both working this game and i think it can get over 185...regardless who the bulls play. all these guys are professionals and this may be the time someone like daequan cook steps up and shows he deserves more minutes. the bulls will put hinrich, robinson, butler, boozer and probably nazr mohammed on the floor to start the game..i see a similar situation as in new york.... a smaller lineup and a faster pace..over 185 seems reasonable..
those are all the thoughts from the sty this tuesday afternoon..
most my plays will be 2nd half or 3 Q plays after we get to see how these games are unfolding..i will be back right before tip offs and good luck to all.. feel free to leave any comments or thoughts that might cover something ive missed... thanks guys. i look forward to a full slate of games with the gang.
