The lines have been a dog player's dream. Dallas and Miami are the only two favs to cover the line (Dal 2-0 and Mia 1-1 vs spread). 13 games and the favs are 3-10.

Tomorrow night you have Lakers v hornets, Spurs v griz, thunder v nuggets. Anyone who watched game 1 of the spurs series realizes that was no fluke. The line is 8.5. I would take the griz. Thunder giving nuggets 4.5. Very evenly matched teams but i would take the nuggets plus the points. The Lakers game I would leave alone but forced to make a call i would hope that Chris Paul could keep the hornets in the game enough to cover 12.

Did anyone notice what was going on last game with Kobe "covering" paul? They switched on every screen to keep kobe fresh for the offensive end. Quicker point guards give the lakers a really tough time. Next round, they get westbrook or lawson.

Funny how in crunch time in their first 2 playoff games this year the Celtics and Doc Rivers thought West was good enough to close out games. Because you know teams like Boston always sign guys who aren't any good and put them on the floor when playoff games are on th line...

LOL Who else were they going to throw out there that can cover anyone? No one said he can't play any defense. Why do you think Bogans is out there? Bogans, if nothing else, is a tough vet that can defend a little bit and hit an open shot every tenth game.

Okay, what is the difference between Delonte West and Keith Bogans really? Bogans may "start" but he only averaged 18 minutes a game during the regular season which is about what Delonte averages. All stats are about the same as well.

So...my original statement was correct. If you are calling out bogans, Delonte is right there. They are both equally terrible.
