Suns at Trail Blazers 2/6/07

looking at this line, it just doesn't make any sense. My gut (read square) thinks the Suns should be favored by like 7 or 8. I'm very tempted to take Trail Blazers +3.5. Thoughts?

Nash is out tonight, so thus the line move.

well I feel a little silly. Nash isn't playing which strangely makes me like the Blazers less, because perhaps that mean the line is overcompensating for Nash being out. This is probably going to be a pass for me.

i have a good size wager on suns -2.5 at the bottom of the trough

need to book a sports betting winner tonight for some confidence

Yeah I hate lines like that. The obvious pick would be to take Portland since Nash is out but most likely Phoenix would blow them out.

PHX still has alot of great players, i think they cover. At least the 1st game NASH misses. I have PHX ML to win 1 UNIT.

I bet 8 units on the Suns at -4.

I bet two units, then two more, then two more, and finally two more.

The Suns should win this with ease.

I bet more on this game than I did on the Super Bowl, including props.

Damn, Portland's making a bit of a comeback as the game nears halftime.

Mike_Hunt · #9 02-07-2007, 12:19 AM

Portland is hanging around, I am slightly worried, but the Suns should push hard early in the fourth and cruise...

Ok..... anytime now Phoenix... Go ahead and put your foot down on the pedal, it's ok to take it off cruise for a couple minutes...
