  • Just caught the tail-end of ABC's pre-game report which mentioned Garnett's on-going absence but said nothing about Perkins (unless I missed that part of it). I think the shift from BOS -1 to BOS +2.5 might be connected more with an injury to Perkins' shoulder vs Minnesota rather than KG's abdominal strain (which is a known ailment he's been dealing with lately).

    If Perkins is out ... that's a huge loss for the C's today when going up against Tim Duncan ... BUT, at BOS +2.5 ... I will just sit and watch this game instead, as that's a lot of points to give the home team in a 1 PM game vs a Spurs team that is playing w/o Parker & Barry.

    • UPDATE: Perkins is definitely out; but, at BOS +2.5, I'm still taking a pass.

          • Dallas-3 @ Philly
            Khandor I smell a trap with Dallas, I see 79% of the money on the Mavs while the line keeps dropping, Opened at -4 down to -2 1/2 some places. This only encourages more money to put on dallas. Beware of this game.

            My play is philly +3 and Philly first half

            Good Luck with GS and Lakers
            good luck

              garister, I hear ya, loud and clear, with the line dropping this way ... but, personally, I think this one's a solid play tonight for Dal. Look for Dirk to go off against Iggy and carry the Mavs to the W, on the heels of yesterday's poor game vs NJ (btw, who I think is about to become a solid team again with the return to health of Krstic).

                    Feb 12 NEW JERSEY -6.5 L ... down by 9 pts, with 39 secs left, Telfair hits a 3 for Minny (NJ +6); Wince Carter makes only 1 of 2 FTs for NJ (+7); Al Jefferson misses twice for the Wolves; with 5 secs left, Richard Jefferson makes a turnover (!); and, then, with 1 sec left on the clock, Randy Foye hits a 3 (NJ +4).
                    seemingly EVERY f!@#$%g night!

                    • When using everything you've learned during a 30-yr period of successful sports wagering WON'T work, no matter what you try ... then, it's time to go to the CONTRARIAN Aproach ... in which case, these are today's NBA selections:

                        Now ... that's more like it.

                        Just goes to show you how easy it is to forget the fundamentals of 'This' game, even for an 'old hand', like me.

                        It's not what you know about 'Pro Baskets' that matters, in this business, it's what you know about the 'Numbers'.

                        With the 2nd half of the season tipping off next week ... a great time to have finally re-discovered this Guiding Principle, after so many years away from 'this' specific game.

                        Good hunting to all!
