But also Bogut have some problems with his back and could miss game for Milwaukee ...

Jermaine O'Neal is on day to day list and it's good chance for him to play today.

Toronto beat Orlando without Calderon and O'Neal ...

[Zozo the Duke]

Miami - San Antonio

Pick: San Antonio ML
Odds: 1.65
Bookmaker: Pinnacle
Stake: 7/10

Miami is one man team, Wade is scoring assisting, rebounding, playing defense…He has absolutely no support from his teammates, if Wade is not in this team, Miami will struggle to get double digit wins at the end of the season. Marion is nothing special and all others are players below the average, except Beasley who has potential, but he is just an average player at the moment. Marion is injured for this match so Miami will not have debt at all and they will not have another option in the attack than Wade.

San Antonio is not the team that was two years ago. They are not that lethal anymore, but still Duncan, Parker, Ginobili helped by Finley and Mason are by far better team than one man team of Miami. I know that San Antonio are not trashing machine, but they are better and I expect them to win tonight

i'm on Toronto anyway. i think they are able to beat Bucks even without O'neal and Calderon. and even if im wrong i think the odds are on Raptors side and ill try to use that. and i know than ill never play, not even single game Milwaukee for 1.2 or 1.3 so... GL to all

Jermaine O'Neal and Jose Calderon are rated day to day, but in ESPN's conversation about the game I read that neither of them travelled to Milwaukee for tonight's game.

Can anyone confirm this?

I know that the Raptors played without them against Magic and won, but tonight it's a b2b away game against an in form and better rested team as the Bucks. O' Neal and Calderon will really be missed this time, if it's true that they're definitely out of tonight's game.

Milwaukee don't play b2b against Toronto these days.
Toronto played against Orlando Magic last night, while Milwaukee were having a day off.
So, only for Toronto will be a b2b game tonight.

yes, misunderstood, sorry

[patrickdrd]

can't understand why everyone is betting on over on spurs game, since:

The total has gone UNDER in 5 of San Antonio's last 5 games on the road
The total has gone UNDER in 11 of San Antonio's last 12 games when playing on the road against Miami
The total has gone UNDER in 16 of San Antonio's last 18 games when playing Miami
The total has gone UNDER in 11 of Miami's last 12 games when playing at home against San Antonio
The total has gone UNDER in 16 of Miami's last 18 games when playing San Antonio

[szorstak]

also look where is toronto
time zone etc Milwaukee ml bankahspread no idea 50/50


sacramento imo odds have value

h2h speaks that NJ havent won in Sacramento till last meeting so big revenge factor
Also injury in last game to NJ's Devin Harris is very big blow(even if he plays he isnt 100%). he was a hero when these 2 teams met last time when he assured win for his NJ with 3 pointer with 7 sec to go in OT. (116-114).
Without him Nets are 0-4 so this trend to continue.
Sacramento welcomes back Kevin Martin who score in last Sat his season high 45 pts in loss to Indiana (117-122). It was his 3rd game after being absent from 10 due to injury.
Sacramento to end 10 road losing streak (10 years ago was their longest such streak) and NJ to continue trend of not winning back-to-back at home this season.

so 2,7 bet365 6/10

SA will try special bet in bet365
SA Spurs to win by 1-2 pts 10.00
SA Spurs to win by 3-6 pts 5.00
both 3/10
They were recently involved in many close games and all was being said about their win which i support but prefer better value imo win by1-3 pts

f*ck me if I'm wrong (just kidding) but I belive Toronto - Orlando was first game yesterday, very very early one and I also belive that between Toronto and Milwaukee is one hour of difference in time zone, so travelling from Toronto to Milwaukee gets you an extra hour, and considering both facts - it's not a classic b2b game for Toronto

the important thing to me is:
Will O'neal and Calderon play?

If both played, then I would certainly back Toronto at these odds.
However in that case odds would have been a bit different

IMO young and hungry blood at PG position that Toronto is using now, often prooved to be a good thing and as I said Ukic was just incredible last night. No matter if they are playing or not, I belive odds 4.95 (even 5.00 at one moment) were just incredibly too high for Toronto (odds dropped to 4.25 at Pinnacle within 45 min, probably with the reason) since Toronto will have huge advantage with the Bosh considering Bogut is out, I surely don't rate Milwaukee as the better team in this matchup and on neutral court without b2b story there is no way Milwaukee would be favoured.

In past seasons I've noticed that absence of very key player (like LeBron or Kobe) moves the line for about 3-4 points and I don't think that this b2b (which is not usual b2b as I already said) and home court advantage really worths 8-9 points like Milwaukee is favoured.

Odds on Toronto dropped from 4.60 to 3.87 in my bookie during the last half an hour.
Either lots of money staked on Toronto, or info about who plays and who doesn't :idea:
