KING +12 (-110) at Blazah $8
Both of these teams Home/Road numbers strongly skewed by just a couple games.
Sacramento took three huge losses during eastern road trip in first week of season. Otherwise, their avg losing margin on road is just six points.
Portland has had two blowout (38 and 42 pts) wins at Home. Otherwise, their avg winning margin at home is just three points.

hindsight reply:
Sure...plenty of room on the SuckAssTrain
I violated an in house rule which is to not double down at halftime on a FullGame Wager. I honestly thought Kings could get back in this one based on first half stats being very even.
Had I been correct, I would have won my FullGame wager, so there was no need to add to it.
Dec 16 summary
0-2 (-13.20)

Liking the Phoenix inside game of Shaq, Hill & Amare to have the edge on Oden, Pryz and Aldridge. Liking Nash and Barnes as solid edge on Blake and Roy
Liking it
Meanwhile, Boston Top5 Defense at Home vs a weaker percentage shooting team like Chicago and this one's lined higher than 187? Please

Orlando has not held an opponent under 80 pts in their past 102 games. Spurs likely worn following last night's divisional burner with Hornets, but given the fat Magic halftime lead, this could be a good spot for Spurs to close a bit before Orlando ramps up the late defense.

BULL/IRISH Undah 196 (-110) $9
KING/ROCK Undah 203.5 (-110) $10
Also using Houston in my 2Teamer O the Day thread (pucks forum). This is a great spot as their numbers nice and inflated due to past couple weeks playing vs high scoring teams and/or on road versus crappy teams.
Tonight they get the Kings who likely lack Martin and average five pts below league average when playing on the road.
Looking for a severe defensive smakckdown and this one comes in at 195 or less
Meanwhile, Boston another Top10 (top5 actually) defense playing at Home versus the 23rd ranked FG% team in NBA. Be very surprised if this one even tops 186, much less the posted Total.

CAV/NUGGET 2H Undah 101 (-110) $8
NUGGET 2H -4 (-110) $6
Flying pretty much under the radar, Nuggets have had a Top10 Defense since Billups joined (96 pts per game)
Gone are the days when Denver D could not hold down a second half and allowed opponents to beat them late at Home.
Look for them to clamp down on Cavs in second half and slow down the 64% shooting Cleveland tossed up in first 24 minutes.
Meanwhile, the Cavs have a Top1 (heh) defense themselves and in combination with Denver pinch, we should see this one stay nicely under 101 after both of the first two quarters went way over 50.
