Spears Thurs Special

[Spearit]

This play is not as strong as last nights winner but deserves some attention.

5* UCLA -2 first Half.

This spread is heading in Zaga's favor so time well.
I believe UCLA's backcourt will dominate play for the first half and Morrison will be kept in check during this time- If he breaks out -it will be in the second half.

--GONZAGA is 2-10 against the 1st half line in road games versus good defensive teams - allowing <=64 points/game over the last 3 seasons.
The average score was GONZAGA 33.7, OPPONENT 37.8 - (Rating = 1*)

--UCLA is 10-2 against the 1st half line when playing against a top-level team (Win Pct. > 80%) over the last 2 seasons.
The average score was UCLA 36.5, OPPONENT 35.3 - (Rating = 1*)


NBA
2* Phoenix Suns -8 (lines not up) 1st Half

Phoenix has dropped 2 games and will be hungry. Coach is pissed with the Suns for the second half laydown against Utah. They will come out hustling for the game tonight.
Amare S. will show up for brief spells but probably when the game is fully in hand. Will Phoenix cover 16 points in the game-don't think that is a good bet- mainly because Portland has a good ATS record on 3-4 days rest (last played on the 20th) and Amare needs some time on the court as part of rehab.

Noticed a couple of starters out for South Carolina (SCAR) and played on them as a pick. (Thanx Jhedrick and Vinnie) One starter- no problem but 2 players - South Carolina should pick out their weaknesses as the game progresses.

5*South Carolina -1

Muhammad, a 5-11 guard from Plainfield, N.J., is the team's fourth-leading scorer, averaging 10.8 points, and top 3-point shooting threat. He averaged 13.0 points and 7.0 assists in UC's two NIT victories.

White, a 6-7 swing player from Washington, D.C., is the Bearcats' leading scorer, averaging 16.3 points. He has averaged 20.3 points over his last three games and has scored nearly 1,100 points during his three seasons as a Bearcat.

Good Luck spearit. I'm all over South Carolina. I agree, two starters is too much to make up against a good team like S Carolina.

[harold_bush]

shit, too late for me. Sportsbook and Pinnacle have the game off.

[Meg30]

good luck to you mr.spearit

[Spearit]

Thanx all- SCAR will need to find it in the second half- I don't have the game- but I imagine 'Win one for Kennedy' is in the air and cinncy is bouncing off the walls.

[Spearit]

Won 4 big bets on SCAR- 2nd half and game---Such A Gift-Awesome.

So. Car-1----------------------------------Winner
2nd half-----------------------------------Winner
Duke/LSU half time Under 76 1/2---------Winning

5* UCLA -2 first Half.

Nice day so far. Unfortunately, I got in too late to take advantage of Carolina. I'm all over UCLA so let's bring that one in.

[Spearit]

Sorry about UCLA- Many of us are in disbelief over their flat start. Zaga really put it on them in the first half.

So. Car-1----------------------------------Winner
2nd half-----------------------------------Winner
Duke/LSU half time Under 76 1/2------------Winner

5* UCLA -2 first Half------------------------Not even close- Loss
2* Phoenix Suns -8 1st Half-----------------Winner
