UTAH/Memphis

[mvbski]

I live in portland and we are having a major winter storm as im sure you all know.The airport here has more or less been shutdown since about 5pm tuesday,all the airlines canceled inbound and outbound flights.since 5 we have had nonstop freezing rain also,I dont think Memephis has any shot of getting out of town tonite and wont get out till late in the morning at the latest wich could make for a very long day for them since they play tonite in Utah,not sayining its a lock I just think it's something to look at for this game

 

[mvbski]

also I am sure they have there own plane but like I said we have had freezing rain since before the game was cancel'd

just saw on the 11 oclock news live,they have been at the airport since 6 and have no idea when there getting out

Great information SKI


This game should move higher when more find out about this unfortunate situation for the Grizz.

Thanks for the info. because Utah is great at home too. This should be a good pick if the cappers don't consider these hurdles that memphis has to step over.

 

[Fishhead]

Considering Utahs home record and the Grizzlies record on the road, coupled with this INSIDE INFO, makes Utah -4 seem like a short number.

I anticipate this game going to -5.5

Thanks mvb-hope we cash tonite!

 

[Fishhead]

PINNY down to -4 -105

Dont understand that.

Fishead in regards to line movement, remember that the book in its best interests will open with soft lines and shade lines throughout the day. They will create fake steam etc ect. They know that you and I are watchingline movements and will fuss with the lines to throw us off. Line movements are a facade for the most part. That is why a set of solid power ratings and your own lines are a must. That way you KNOW what the true line should be and you can chuckle on the sidelines as the books manipulate the unknowing with their line movements.

Todays weather problems for Memphis should not be given innapropriate weight. It will disrupt their routine and maybe their shootaround in the AM. I wouldn't just make a bet based on that one variable. I'm on Utah anyways and the weather holdup for Memphis is a nice extra but nothing to go bet the house on by itself.

Razor- I realize that, I am no amatuer.

I thought the number was short too before the news on Memphis.

I pushed the number up last night at Pinnacle and guess nobody followed me.

 

[OccamsRazor]

Fish, By no means did I mean to imply you were an amateur. I simply took your, “I don’t understand.” comment too literally. I had just been helping my son with his Math homework and was still in teaching mode. Good Luck to us tonight.

Game down to 3.5 some shops.

Utah on the ml...they're going to win by 1 at the buzzer

 

[Fishhead]

Memphis was still in Portland at 9am this morning.

I had to do some investigating.
