What a Shot Baby

NBA is almost here and I'll be gunning for the books.

Some development to note on the upcoming NBA Euro with Toronto Raptors against Maccabi Tel-Aviv. This line has moved from Toronto -10 to -13.5 since the opening and if your familiar with basketball lines this is a huge line move.
I'm not aware of any Maccabi injuries or changes in the line up, but I do know Raptors are improved. Do they deserve a bigger spread than the Suns? That remains to be seen. I may or may not have a play here, but watch these Raps they were the top ATS money makers last season.

Maybe Batis will have some thoughts to add.

Raps were lights out 118-84

For Oct. 19th Thursday NBA Pre-Season.
Let's get some warm ups in.

Mavericks at home taking the visiting Milwaukee Bucks. Dallas will play the weak link, practice used my many NBA teams in preseason, no Dirk, Stackhouse, Jason Terry (coaches decision) Dampier (sore hip) Harris (hammy) Bucks will have a line up much closer to their regulars, but coming in here on second of back to back after getting spanked by the Rockets.

Look for lower than average scoring here. Totals are not out yet.
Also players are not under heavy minutes in preseason games and back to back impact is not the same as in regular season. Bucks getting +2.5 against Mavs B-team is very good and money line is worth a shot.

MIL +2.5 at +102 for 1 unit(L)
MIL ML at +127 for 1 unit(L)
Bucks scored only 4 points in 3rd quarter, WTF.
Under was money, but did not get a chance to post.
---------------------------------------------------------

Like Clippers to take out the Lakers in pregame -2 points. Current Lakers does not scare anyone.

LAC -2 at -110 for 1 unit(L)
Oh 91-90 Clippers
0-3 -3.10 units
