Wow...just wow! I will be discussing this game probably at length on the show today...but what a line the Celts demand from Vegas...and against a team like Memphis likely still doesn't crush the books completely...but wow!
We backed the Pistons +9 at Boston a week or so ago before Boston headed to Milwaukee for a game they cared about...and also recommended the ML being peppered...Detroit led throughout and won rather easily.
Celtics are playing their 12 effing game in the month of January...and they've had 3 B2B spots and a ton of travel flux, opponent flux, and injuries. A lot of this game to a head the other night when they took on the AD back best team in the NBA and absolutely ANNIHILATED them into submission scoring 140 in their wake.
Now they get the Griz off a loss at home to NO...maybe surprising but also apparently very helpful here as we get 7 points! Memphis has the most outright wins this season on the road getting 7 or more points...and in only 10 occurrences...compared to nearly twice this from CLE, NYK, WAS, GS, and the like...who at most have 3 such outright Ws.
I mentioned this spot yesterday and thought I would love it at the 5 or so points we'd get...but again...WOW

WELL....hmmm
- no Beverley
- no Kawhi
- no PG
that's basically the entire defensive prowess for the LAC...not to mention Beverley isn't the offensive threat of anyone who will spell him in the lineup and the minutes....Lou Will will go for 30+ minutes and is off a 4/19 game which won't happen 2 nights in a row...and the defense that is left is on no rest and a solid win in Dallas.
Atlanta basically will go Over with anyone any night as they love playing on the offensive end and shooting and running, but not so much on the defense...also with the potental complacency of 3 guys out for the Clips and knowing they are on a back to back as well with travel. The Hawks shouldn't be able to defeat the Clippers...but if the Clippers are going to almost on purpose allow ATL to go north of 120 then we have ourselves a spot!

No Plumlee now in addition to no Murray or Millsap...with Gary Harris upgraded to questionable as the best stands...leaving mostly the Joker as the only healthy star player tasked with competing with Westbrook running and Harden and Gordon chucking 3s...the former of which is coming off a 1 for 17 from deep...and WE ALL KNOW he ain't shy when it comes to "bad" games left in the dust. There is 0 chance he won't shoot another 17 from deep if the offense allows it and they all fall to him with the transition and kick outs. However, the Nuggets are just 1-9 ATS in the 1st quarter and a lot of that is correlated with the injuries...not getting off to good starts period and slowing taking it out of teams for Ws...where Houston is the reverse....just coming off a loss to the Thunder where they had to be outscored in the 4th quarter by 21 points to lose that game!
Harden goes for double digits in the first quarter and maybe Westbrook does too...and this -3 line for the 1st quarter is as good as they come when narrowing down a slate to hammer weak ass lines!....and just flat MAKE MONEY!
