NBA 24th

[TazaD]

Indi +4 League: 22-10 (Av. WIN 2.2) home 4- dog, 1 day off a 10- ats win as home 5+ fav, if opp last won as fav. [indi] Indi are 11-2 at home v. winning teams this season! Indi won the first meeting at home 93-85 in Feb as +8 dogs!...and they really did dominate the game, grabbing 25 offensive boards to 12, had 10 more points in the paint, and won despite shooting just 38%! Now with O'Neal back in the line-up they should be even better. Detroit have been very unconvincing on the road lately, losing 4 of their last 7, and wins @ only poor teams Toronto, Seattle and Charlotte. Indi v. Det over 180 League: 19-4 over (Av. score 201.4!) away 4- fav, 1 day off a 10- ats win as home 5+ fav, if opp is off any 10- ats win. [Det] None of Indi's last 7 home games have gone under this number, and Detroit are over this number on 9 of their last 10 on the road! As mentioned, the first meeting in Indi was 93-85, but they shot just a combined 40.8% and had just 36 FT's. Cleveland -6 League: 9-0-2 this no. (Av. win 11.9) home 5+ fav, 1 day off a 10+ ats loss, but SU win as home 10+ fav. [Cavs] 5-0 (Av. win 11.8) if opp is off any ats win. Cleveland are being under-rated after one bad performance, but should be able to bounce back strongly against an inconsistant Boston. (Celts are just 8-19-1 off a win to prove that point!) The Cavs have won both meetings this season, 115-93 at home, and 113-109 away in OT, but in that game they hit just 25-40 Ft's, Snow hit 1-10 for 4 points, and Pierce went for 50!! You'd have to think that all that was unlikely again!! Also like Denver, but really want -8.... League: 10-2 (Av. win 12.5) home 5+ fav, 1 day off any ats win as home 4- dog, if opp last won as fav. [Denv] Denver have won 8 of theri last 10 games, and their last 4 at home by an av of 13.25! The line is too low because of Seattle's perceived turn around in form, but they have played 8 of their last 10 at home...they are just 2-10 in their last 12 on the road, losing by an av of 12.1. Seattle are just 3-11 away v. winning teams this season and 8-18 off a win, so I expect Denver to get the job done again here.

Event	Chicago vs New Orleans

Reasoning	Both teams are at the 8position in their conference. The Hornets lost at sellout Ford Center against weak Houston, yesterday. New Orleans led by 9 points early in the second half, but finally lost by one point. The hornets didn´t play smart and they didn´t want to win. Their performance dissapointed me. Now, the Hornets hit the road again for a 4-game trip. They spent 4 days in New Orleans, where they lost to Denver and defeated the Clippers. "That's always I think in everybody's back of their mind," said Hornets guard Kirk Snyder, who was 3-for-16 for nine points. "We obviously want to be in the playoffs. We're not just sitting here saying we don't want to be in the playoffs. We've just got to find a way to use that as positive motivation."
