Vegas lines: Utah at 40.5

[fishonjazz]

What's the risk of waiting until the day before the season starts to bet? Seems kind of risky to bet so early when you can just do it later (because of injury risk).

The risk is the line, meaning the over under win total, could move.

Has the line moved since you placed your bet, fish?

If it moves up I'd start feeling pretty good about getting in at 40.5.

Where is she going to post it at? There is already variance in the line depending on where you go.

Unibet here down under has 1.80 for the Jazz going both over and under 43.5, greedy ********.

Damn I would feel allot better about over 40.5 than the 41.5 I got.
I think I'm going to lose my bet by one game

Agreed. There were so many injuries and so many close losses this year that with one good acquisition via the draft or free agency and the return of Exum and Burks, as well as other guys' organic improvement, I'm thinking 50-53 wins next year is possible.

I actually think the close losses hurt more than the injuries.
The most frustrating stretch of the year for me was when we had 4 very close and OT losses in a 10 day span.

At home against Sacramento we lose at the buzzer (gay hit the game winner on a very well defended shot) 103-101.


Double overtime loss at Charlotte 124-119 when kemba went off for like 80 points

Overtime loss to the knicks


Loss against Detroit 95-92


Then the home loss to Brooklyn by two really really really hurt. Probably the worst loss of the year.


With a little better officiating, better health, and a little luck on some of our close games we would be sitting pretty

Good call

I'm just here because I like the fact that currently threads 2-6 on the board have my post as their most recent. Owning it, bitches. Taake notes.

Oof

So I was wrong for once...

Did I say Kings U35 in here? I did that for the season. Easiest money ever.

No easiest money would have been the Sixers or Lakers. The Kings can still reach 35 wins, so you haven't even officially won the bet yet. Kings are at 28 wins with 10 games left (5 against teams who are currently not going to make the playoffs if season ended today).

Sixers had a line of 21.5 wins. They are now at 9 wins with 9 games left. Lakers are also mathematically out of reaching the over also by a nice margin.

The under on the Lakers and Sixers were great bets, easy $$, but what about the over on Portland? they covered before the ASB! 26½ looks like a joke right now.

 

[Game6Conley]

That's near impossible.
Sorry man.

I need 7-3 and I don't think that will happen either. I'm thinking I miss by one game

I believe !




Stranger things have happened.

Yeah, I suppose if you knew McCollum was going to ball that hard.

I guess if CJ was just an average starter they would still easily hit that # tho. I just thought they would tank on purpose.

I guess I'm the only one that thinks Utah at 40.5 is like SPOT ON where I would be nervous. Those line makers are amazing at times!

Nope. I agree with this, I think they could go slightly under .500. The time to make this bet on the Jazz was clearly last season.

Dante's knee is ominous, further injuries could be crippling.

After the Exum injury, I'm just about positive I predicted 40.5 on the nose. Anyone know what thread that was in?

Nope buddy, I am on the same boat as you. We have three starters that play their asses off regularly, which means they could fall to injury just as easily. Two of our three studs are 7 footers, and when they go down, they go down hard.

I'm taking the under.

final bump for this thread

 

[b_line]

Jazz are going to blow 40 wins out of the water.

LOL. I don't know why this one is so funny to me.


I thought the Jazz would end up at 47 wins this year, and miss the playoffs, or get the 8 seed. Kind of a weird year in the west.

 

[b_line]

40.5 seems like an easy over for sure. If the jazz only won 40 games it'd have to be because of significant injury issues.

Significant is kind of an understatement

Boom. I'm amazing!

Vegas is ****ing unbelievable. It's like they have a secret time machine...
I'm very anxious to see next season's win total over/under now.

didn't want to bump this to rub salt in any wounds.. With the number being spot on I had to though..

Either that or there's a mafia crimelord with a few refs (ie Tom Washington) in their back pocket.

 

[prodigy]

that's actually pretty incredible, imagine watching that last game with a big bet on the line.

before the season i thought we would be well over
