Sonics/Suns

Suns -9.5???????????

They opened at -8. I don't get this line. Seattle has the 4th best record in the NBA. Seattle is a .700+ team. .700+ teams getting this many points cover-s 67% of the games.

I don't buy into the rest factor. Yes, Seattle played last night. However, they played their last 3 games at home. With 1 and 2 days rest between those games.

Finally, while Phoenix has the best record in the NBA. They have a poor ATS record at home. Conversely, Seattle has a very good road SU and ATS record. As a road dog they are 9-3 SU and ATS. As a road dog of 5 or more they are 6-0 SU and ATS. Beating the Spurs at +10 and the Kings at +7.5

I'd like to hear other opinions. There seems to be good mix of opinions with this game.

I like the over in this game if anything.

On The Over In This One

Phoenix / Seattle

I dont know Frankie - The line looks like a tempting take here - so I'd go the other way.

I don't like getting sucker punched by the linesmaker.

Thinking Phoenix is the courageous side here and I'd buy Phoenix or pass altogether.

CB, I agree about the linesmaker. However, the public has already moved the line from -8 to -9.5

Ahhhh now that's a horse of a different feather LOL ... See ? Thats why you have my undying loyalty Buddy.

No one scopes the NBA better than you .

that line jumped at me also, I checked for injuries, none that are relevant, cant see why this spread is so high, I might even take a small chance on the ML +375

[ChuckLazar]

Frank, I jumped on 9.5 when I saw it. Phoenix isn't all that much better. But then again you see blowouts in the NBA when you least expect it. I'm already on the over 227, from this morning. And now I see it up over 230. I figured that.

[Blackbeard]

lookin good frank, I woosed on that +375 ML, got the +9.5 though, should have went with my first instinct, oh well

[frankb03]

Easy Winner. Another SU winner for Seattle as big dogs. I still don't get this line. Sagarin ratings had Suns by 6. Vegas gave us an additional 3.5 points. Thanks! I'll take them.

I agree. I gave it some thought after your post earlier today. I also woosed out.
