MrMonkey you are up. MF is the backup plan for today just in case.:bowdown:

Just woke up! 6 CBB plays? Thanks Bread! You did this on purpose, didn't ya? I will have something in a bit! Since there's a limited number of CBB plays (that's we have been doing) maybe a some people can just pop in with their own suggestion? I will not be offended! I surmise their will be likings of one game by more than one poster because of only 6 choices. (No Ivy and only 2 choices) Make any sense? Might get a pick al natural?

Also, lots of NBA action tonight, any games someone prefers from that they would like to discuss? And please don't tell us something like, "yea me pro with that". Your play will be taken off the discussion table.

I'm alittle perturbed at the clowning around going on here the last few days. You people know who you are, so let's zip it! Remember MonkeyFocker is a west coast time guy so don't expect something from him for awhile! We don't want to kill a potential cash cow from ODing on "go fast". He needs some sleep!:thumbup:
 
Liking Old Dom +3 the best! Slight lean to W&M +4 to get their train back on track?

kenpom 54-52 NIU
statfox 84-80 power rank NIU
sargain 86-84 power NI 0-0 top 50 OldDom 1-3 top 50

NI's leading rebounder and 2nd scorer, 7FTer Eglseder is suspended. Sometimes it's not until the 2nd game out that the effects of it are visible? Hopefully coach of Old Dom looks at film of how NI adjusted and he makes adjustments on taking advantage of it?

NI's only other big presence Koch must perform? Whole team now must contain Old Dom's Gerald Lee inside? Both teams play good defense and both teams style of play call for tight low scoring game? SOS about same and NI home presence of big TV game will make difficult but not winnable? No advantage here on which team needs this game more?

NI undefeated at home and have lost last 3 of it's blockbuster games? Also 4-0 ATS against last 4 non-conference opponents? This my best bet and seeing a down to the wire game? You see all the ??????????????? because everything is open for discussion, meaning not taking Old Dom or even to the point these facts point you to taking NIU -3 as the best bet? It's all about making us all money!

Sorry but this all I've got and your cooperation in helping the entire Gamelive board is appreciated! Good luck to all of us tonight!:thumbup:
 
I'm here, I'm just not totally sold on the ODU play, sorry MrMonkey. I didn't want to chime in until I had gone through the entire NBA card and found the very best play I could to offer up as an alternative. Another 20 minutes and I should be able to do so.
 
Well, what I settled on was UNDER 206 in the Pacers/Hornets game. These teams have a long history of poor shooting against each other and the Hornets have recently resigned themselves to not making the playoffs this year. The injury to Chris Paul has destroyed the team's fire to battle, and the Pacers never had that to begin with. To break this over at the average pace for these two at least one team would have to shoot 50% from the field, and neither is looking near good enough to do it. Not the best rationale, but I really like this pick for the intangibles, the lack of competitive fire in both teams currently. Indiana is about to play 10 of their next 13 on the road, I think they'll show up to collect an 'L' for their record without too much fight.
 
I like the ODU play as well....They seem like a value at +3 even though Northern Iowa is undefeated at home I think this line should be about a pk. Especially with N.Iowa's 2nd leading scorer out for the game...
