supposed to start at around 1220...but with intros and other crap it was delayed.
total points looking good so far for unders

 

[Macca_]

It is. It's 64 points per quarter to get to the 258.

At quarter time it's - 28-28 (56 points).

 

[Mr Saab]

which means we have some kind of cushion in the 2nd 1/4 if the players start hitting their shots.
West were bad from 3s. 0-6. Hit 3 of those and we are in trouble.

 

[Macca_]

mmm not to flash now.

70-53 at HT to West. Points aren't to bad, but 17 down! Still if they come back you would think the points will finsih under 258 as West will need to throw a few turnovers our way...

 

[Mr Saab]

I am dipping my toes in to test the water. We will be swimming at about 310pm.

NBA Allstar today....

West -4.5/under 258.5

?

(whats the go with 258.5?)

As it stand at half time I'm left cursing about not going with the first thought yet again :lol:

All is good, the East lads will bring it home strong!

 

[Mr Saab]

trust your first judgement macca. This will be the 2nd time you have be burned.

 

[Macca_]

Oh no. Far from the second time :lol:

I'm always getting burned on the horses by juping of my first pick and onto another. Still, have got some winners in the past by jumping the first pick as well...

 

[Mr Saab]

East making there 3rd 1/4 run. Only down 7 now.

 

[Mr Saab]

total points is gone. Will be easy overs.

 

[juggalo_strit]

East down by 3 at the end of the 3rd.

 

[juggalo_strit]

Does anyone know who's coaching the two teams.
The East coach has finally started to use all his players. they're all fresh and playing well. Can't see them getting beat if they keep rotating players.

 

[Macca_]

Hoping for a tight quarter now...

Up by 2, 9 minutes 50 to go. 200 points on the board... 58.5 to play with...

avery johnson for west
flip saunders for east

it is not about being fresh or not, it is about managing the minutes. There are 24 players out there with egos.

 

[Macca_]

This is going to be close as!!!

We had 67 points to play with going into the quarter. They have scored 24 with a bit over half the quarter to go.

Plus West look like they are dying in the arse...

 

[Macca_]

38 points to play with. 5mins 31 on the clock....

 

[juggalo_strit]

East by 6. 5 1/2 mins to go.

So far 220 points.
You're still in with a hope if you took unders.

 

[Mr Saab]

Even if we lose from here it will be "ok" as we had a great shot at it.
Much better now than at halftime when the east sucked.

 

[Macca_]

My theory for the 4th quarter is that the team leading will chew the clock a bit more when going down the court... Hence scoring will be down in the final minutes... Could be a stupid theory as I don't really follow basketball but hoping it's on the money today :lol:

 

[Macca_]

We're home now lads!!!!

34 points to play with 3 1/2 mins to go.

Only OT can stuff us up now.............................






:lol:
