Just a thought, but this matchup's been dominated by the road team. They've been taking turns beating each other in their buildings.

If y'all think vegas is laying "traps" for you, U R wrong. They lay it so as to get equal action on each side. If they do that, they win. No more, no less.....believe it, or hire a psychic to handle your wagering choices :)

Interesting post from a douchebag who never posts picks on threads but always is asking questions about which way he should bet...if you don't post plays, STFU

Here's something interesting that I came across if you're into trends....

Orlando is 17-6 ATS revenging a loss and devastating 13-1 against the spread if opponent broke the century mark.

Rockets are 10-26 ATS after a game where they covered the spread this season

Orlando not happy with last performance as well....I think they play with intensity and pull out the victory tonight.

Just because I don't post plays, I'm a douchebag now?

I know exactly where you got this info because I went on the same site today and looked at it and found it intriguing.

They are also 22-8 ATS their 30 games vs. winning teams. The Rockets are 7-21-1 ATS off an ATS win and they are 7-17-1 ATS off a double digit win. 
 
took this info from another site,so it looks like trends favor Orl in this game,and Houston must relax or something after an easy win or something,plus Orl has the best road record over last 2 years or close to it with Cavs and Celtics equal or better.
I like Orl laying a small # here as that #2 seed is really important for them,keeps them from playing both teams I mentioned in playoffs,GL whatever you play.

Have you never been extremely wrong about a game in your life?  I love the people on this site who act like they never lose.  So fucking funny how they never post picks, never have anything profound or insightful to say yet they always win and never lose.  Where can I sign-up to buy your picks poorguy?  I'm very interested.

To be honest with you, I'm not good enough to post any picks whatsoever. And I have been wrong like the games with MSU playing LOU and Uconn. Guess I never liked the Spartans much but I lost SU in those wagers. But I have also won a handful of games with UNC throughout the tourney. I'm just not reliable to start posting picks. I know many reputable cappers on covers had money on the Spartans. You were one of them.

Sorry if I came out too strong but it was never my intention to stomp on your pick/analysis. BOL to you and your future picks. May the best cappers win!

You are not a douchebag simply because you don't post plays. You are a douchebag because you don't post plays AND knock other people for when they lose.

The fact you can't understand this doesn't help your cause either.

Wow those are strong trends.   But, I still believe the Rockets have more motivation here as they are fighting for homecourt in Round 1.   Trust me I live in Houston and all you hear about on the radio and in print is whether or not they will get out of the first round or not (its has been 11 years or something like that since the Rockets won a playoff series).    Also, I don't think Orlando has anyone that can guard Brooks.    This one could go either way but I am going with a small bet on the Rockets....BOL either way...
