yes its on the road and yes its the start of conference play but these are 2 teams going in opposite directions. Little Rock ( a darling team the last 2 years even making the tourney and beating Purdue, but losing their coach to my Red Raiders ) is a shell of themselves. Losers of their last 5 of 6 and that lone win against an equally terrible Ozarks team ( do they even have a team?) Not even competitive in those losses either losing by an average margin of 16 highlighted by a 40 point drubbing by Bradley of all teams.
ULL on the other hand is lighting it up scoring 86 a game winning their last 7 of 8 games and that lone loss against a Clemson team ( smart scheduling them before conference play to see how hot your squad is. too bad they were outclassed in every way) winning by an average of 18 in those games. Both teams have been off for at least a week and I'm sure ULL will be itching to get back on the court and get that Clemson loss out of their mouth.
11 on the road isn't the best number here but I feel they should get the cover. If you don't like the 11 I feel the FH -6.5 is attainable too. I may play both and hope for 1 or both to cover.

CSKA ML +100 with half way into the 1st Q down 20-8 (sorry for the late post...someone in the pony forum had the guts to claim that jockey wasn't paid to take the fall so I had to give my 2 cents)
classic CKSA 1st Q dump job...hopefully they follow thru over the next 3 Qs and eek out a 3-7 pt win...no team on this planet is better at playing an entire hoops game directly linked to the original spread....this team is the Beethoven of their craft
Victory Belongs to the Most Tenacious

Milano +6.5....after the 1st Q tank job 29-15 as 4.5 home favs...also half unit on ML +260.....next 3 Qs should be a slow and steady comeback by 4-5 points per Q for Milano based on my euroleague experience

Vitoria +17.5...ingame wager at half down 47-31 as a 6pt road dog....these 2 teams are relatively evenly matched and i expect a regression back to the original line come the 4th Q....tiny little sprinkle on ML +950 just for shiits and giggles (less than a quarter unit)....Porto is good, but not in that elite group of teams who can sustain total dominance for 4 full Qs.

Texas Tech -4.5 FH ( yes, a bit of a homer pick but I will be at the game and despite being Christmas break it looks like the Spirit Arena will be sold out)
No Lual Acuil for Baylor and Maston looks to be a game time decision.
I will roll with my Red Raiders to come out hot in Big 12 play and cover this FH and they should probably cover the full game but at -8 now i will just play the half. GL
so, recap. so far.
ULL -11
ULL FH -6.5

gonna lock in texas +5. i really like this texas team and that center, bamba, with a 7'9 wing span. that's crazy. these two teams have very similar stats and i think five points is too much. thye just need to contain the perimeter and they should be good to go. they may not win but i believe they keep it closer than five.

Bulls -2.5....Oladipo ruled out according to multiple sources...Bulls stay hot ATS...hopefully
Raps Pelicans Thunder Warriors ML chicken parlay....pays +165
Good luck fellas with all your plays tonigjt
i really wish the bulls would stop winning. as a chicago native and life long bulls fan, nothing is more frustrating than what they are doing now. this is not part of the rebuild process. they don't have enough pieces or stamina to perform like this in the playoffs and they will be knocked out in the first round. if they're smart, which they have not shown anyone they are, they will kick mirotic to the curb while value is high come trade talk time. we still need draft picks to make up for that idiotic markannen trade. he's a good player but man did they really drop their pants for that trade. reinsdorf probably loves what is going on because he only cares about filling seats and could care less about actually winning, (hence pocketing 3.5 million for bell to the dubs this offseason). to make a long story shorter, pb, i hope you hit this play and then they loss every game the rest of the season. lol

I see no strong angles today (except OKC) in the NBA. Only see weaker angles, so time for some edu-ma-cated guesses using lots of league statistics.
Best-to-worst
BKN@MIA
A couple of games ago, BKN had angles out the behind pointing to a win (or at least a cover), and blew it all. BKN is on a losing streak and is a BAD road team and a TERRIBLE 1Q team. MIA is an EXCELLENT 1Q team. Why would anyone bet BKN here?
MIA -2 1Q (the numbers say this is the best bet) MIA ATS
IND@CHI
The road woes continue for IND. This is not a bad team... just a bad spot in the schedule. I think the game will be close, but CHI is a covering machine lately (6-0 SU & ATS). Be aware that IND is one of the best 1Q teams in the NBA (12-4). IND 1Q CHI -2.5 FG
MIL @ OKC
Two evenly matched teams here. I have a real angle that says MIL loses and another STRONG angle that says OKC wins. Unfortunately, it doesn't say who covers. OKC is a BAD 3Q team, but MIL is a WORSE 4th Q team... WOW! MIL is 4-11 in the 4th Q on the road.
MIL 3Q (anything + points) OKC 4Q (anything laying under 4) OKC -6.5
From this point, I am guesstimating. DAL@NOP
Recent DAL history shows some strength. But, NOP destroyed the last 3 teams they played and are at home. DAL is one of the WORST 3rd Q teams in the league AND on the road (3-14). 6.5 is a lot of points, but got to give NOP the benefit of the doubt here. If you can't beat a BAD road team at home, who can you beat?
NOP 3Q NOP -6.5
PHO@SAC
I think PHO wins. Just going on the record of calling it here to see if a couple of weak angles prevail. Two bad teams playing each other. Both are TERRIBLE 1st Q teams and TERRIBLE 3rd Q teams. Might just save my money here. Who in the world would watch a game like this other than someone with action on it?
PHO -3 CHA@GSW
GSW obviously. CHA is the WORST 3Q team in the league. GSW is the best. CHA is tied for the WORST road record and GSW has the 3rd best home record. A million points would be too good for CHA.
GSW +10.5
