Late NBA

[t3a]

Remember the big TV game last night Pho -3.5 over Detroit. Tonight we have the big TV game Dallas -3.5 over the Lakers.


It will be a similar script, LA will start fast, Dallas comes back, close at half time, Dallas gets the lead in the 3rd, and then LA with the furious finish and cover as it comes right down to the number

LA +3.5 for 5 units

On the Seattle-Detroit game, take Detroit for the same reason as last night, they step it up vs offensive teams. Detroit dominated the boards last night, tonight Sonics can hold their own - this will be slow tempo game, with Pistons pulling out a close win

Det +2 for 3 units
UNDER 188.5 for 1 unit

Will there be a gorilla in play in this game?

 

[t3a]

Jack Nicholson will be playing the gorilla

Jack Nicholson will be playing the gorilla

:lolBIG:

Ok, so will Jack be throwing the ball in the basket or will it be bounced off his head?

 

[t3a]

It will be a similar script, LA will start fast, Dallas comes back, close at half time,

gee where have we seen this script before ? Was that LA the 3 point dog with a 10 point first half lead? Was that LA blowing the lead right before the half?


Is it just me or does Frank Hamblin look miserable coaching the Lakers?

quantum- I am afraid Frank might be in on whatever bizarre finish is coming up in this game. Either the total or side (or both) will be decided in the final 20 seconds of this game

 

[quantumleap]

I haven't seen much of Jack. I don't even know if he's at the game. But I have a strong suspicion that Halle Berry might throw an assist to Kobe to cause this one to go over.

recap 2-1 +3 units

Either the total or side (or both) will be decided in the final 20 seconds of this game

Well it was the total decided in the final 20 seconds, thanks to Jumaine Jones flying into the crowd to commit a foul on a Dallas 3 pointer with a 5 point lead. I guess he wanted Halle Barry's phone #
Still got the side home with LA outright for 5 units


In Seattle, Detroit apparently tired on back to back games shot 9% on 3's 59% FT's and got outrebounded by 16. Still they only got beat by 8 and the game obviously went under with that pathetic shooting

Did you see the Dallas guy lean into Jones to draw the foul? Bill Walton was right, it should have been an offensive foul.

Who would have thought Cheryl Swoopes would have tipped that Kobe leaner in at the end of regulation for the cover? Unreal!

 

[t3a]

Yea I think Walton was right, but they aren't going to call an offensive foul when the defender is flying at the shooter like that.

those last 20 seconds killed my 2nd half middle (over 100.5 , under 104.5) I actually thought I had a shot at that

Don't bring up Cheryl Swoops again, I'd rather picture Halle Berry....
