Default Phoenix -7

Phoenix -7....I layed it all down. I can't take the pressure of losing no more (ex: L.A Lakers/Pacers not covering 216), so I said **** it and layed it all down Phoenix -7.

Somebody tell me this is a good bet.

Suns are not playing good ball right now while Denver is playing some of their best ball this season, I like Denver +7.

c'mon peeps your bringing my spirits down lol. I was initally gonna bet the over 228.5 (Phoenix # 1, Denver # 4) for the highest scoring teams in the league right here. Changed it to Phoenix -7. Didn't Denver like lose or something the other night to Minnesota or something

well to be honest every game with a pointspread is a coinflip. The point differentials are made so the team given the extra points matches up equal to the team as the favorite..

Picture San Antonio V Phoenix in San Antonio. The line would prolly be San Antonio -3

Now picture San Antonio V NY Knicks In San Antonio - The line prolly would be Knicks +13.5 and S.A -13.5

Pointspreads are never easy to beat.. In fact every time I go with my intial gut feeling, the $hit never works. My gut tells me Denver and Phoenix stay tight in the game and it goes to OT and Phoenix wins but not by 7 points... I'm doing reverse psychology tomorrow baby! This shiett betta work and thanks Pat

Gl jeff. I agree it is a coin flip, but if I HAD to pick I'd prolly go with PHX -7 as well. I can see the suns coming out on fire, while the nuggets are slugish and cant defend the pick and roll. Suns havent been playing great ball lately, but can you really call a team with only 10 losses not playing great ball at all though?

I totally agree with you, WOLF.
Pick and roll from Nash and Amare with get Marcus Camby in early foul trouble and open shots for Barbosa and Grant Hill.
I like PHX -7

GL everyone.

BTW, I think the Matrix - Shawn Marion will do a good job on locking Melo up.
GO Suns

A.I is gonna be the real threat against the Suns. If Phoenix played better D we wouldn't have to worry, but unfortunately they have some of the leagues worst defense.

I got it layed on Phoenix -7 so it's untouchable right now. Theres no doubt that Phoenix will win this game, Denver just won't be able to pull through, it's just whether or not Phoenix can beat the pointspread

Suns are 1-6 this season SU against Western Conference Playoff teams.
Plus Stoudemire might be out for personal reasons. Suns ghardly blow out anyone, but Denver is on a back-to-back. Still, leaning towards the Nuggets +7 1/2.

i have no idea about match ups or any of that, but my numbers telling me that pho -7 or even 7.5 is a good bet. it is all math for me, and my math telling me to grab pho -7 or -7.5
at the same time i would never put all my money in one bet.

every team playing tonight is not playing their best ball. spurs def struggling, warriors not consistent, suns are not covering spreads (not even vs. the sonics), and denver, well you just never know. denver is playing the best ball of the four for the last week though. I side with den and the warriors at home.

Would be nice to be sitting real comfortable with that bet. (i don't have it)

Rooting for jeffries bet with the suns -7 though. Not to mention i'm a big suns fan.

HELL YEAAAAA MAN!!! yo god damn the Phoenis Suns were playing like they were just MAD at the NBA... They almost reminded me of how the Patriots play against teams and continue to build up their scores even after they are killing their opponents by like 36 points

Thanks yo, I got paiiiiiiddddd lol. Uusally I would follow BIGERIC's picks but this one I just could not agree on (he took Denver +7.5)... There is no way Phoenix would lose at home after a days rest and Denver playing 4 games in 5 nights.

I've been following bigeric too on his parlay contest picks..he's up there. I never go against the suns. Not sure how to take the under in a game with the two highest scoring teams (#1 and #3 actually i think?). I also try not to go against the top teams in any sport, instead I don't put a bet on it at all.

I know, if i didn't have all my money on LSU and Samford, and a few dumb NHL plays, i would have played Phoenix, except i got into a habit of betting the suns every time last season and that got ugly, so i try not to bet suns games because i feel too bias.
