Pinnacle has NBA openers up for Tuesday...

Have to believe the Ben Wallace led Bulls at +8 will drop before tipoff. Grabbed this live dog but will play back in a few days.

good looking out man....I thought they would put out Miami -5...esp since Shaq is so lackadaisical at this time of the season

they will (hopefully) after you, me and everyone else in town hits the Bulls:toast:

Phoenix -5? Lakers have dropped this much since last season? I would think there would be some kind of motivation to get revenge after last year's series. I would've predicted suns -2.5-3 but I can see them covering that number also.

Damn. I'm not ready for these yet...

RobFunk · Oct 27, 2006

Mia -8 is definatly proof over value exists

goodcall · Oct 27, 2006

Alright now I'm ready...and I completely agree that they're giving Chicago too many...but you guys pushed the juice to -120 already :sad3: I guess I'll wait a bit. I'm also looking to hit the under pretty hard in that game when the total comes out.

LAL has some value too imo, but Chi is way off :103631605

Kobe is questionable I believe.

I was distraught at the -120 as well, however, I still grabbed it.....

it is now +8 -133 (if you use the drop down).

they have actually changed it to display +7 -109

great call ICEMAN

Kobe is not healthy and Amare is back...I was actually suprised this line was so low.

spreadbeater · Oct 27, 2006

I posted Chicago +8 in the NBA forum last night when it was released. Full writeup there as well. :103631605

Chris Mihm and Kwame Brown will be out as well.

kobefan08 · Oct 27, 2006

correct... both our centers are out, we are starting our young gun andrew bynum, on top of that Kobe is only going to be 80% he said on a radio interview... I had the line estimated at PHX -6.5

Iceman · Oct 31, 2006

Chicago now down to +4.5. Now time to decide what to do with this GREAT number.

SportSavant · Oct 31, 2006

nice call on this one Iceman, Im sitting with the +8 and im gonna let it ride, I think the Bulls will win this one straight up tonite.

Thank you sir. I also have under 192.5 on the total. Probabaly won't have a bigger middle than this most of the year, but will be hard to give up any of this good line.:howdy:

I got the same number as you on the total, and I played it pretty large (relatively). I was just going to bump this to ask you what you'd do here. Like you, I feel pretty good about getting such a good number, but 7 points is a heck of a middle. Maybe I'll just buy back half.

7 points? I thing you mean 5, right?

I have been told by alot to just keep the number but I bought some -4 (-109 at Pinny drop down) for half of my bet. I win if Chicago covers and have a decent middle going.

Did the same thing with over 187 (bought back half). Keeping more on under 192.5

I have been told by many that I respect to keep hold of all of it. But I don't like to sweat that much. I always had the thought in my head from the beginning that I would get out of some of the bet.

Good Luck to both of us:toast:
