NIT BOTH GAMES UNDER, 149 and 133 (NIT semis and finals last 48 games = 10 OV 37 UN 1 Push)
I am not late. I just had to scramble to get DET +4 and UNDER 215. I was going to be on DET +4 as a Play but then OKC scratched Durant. That's not a bad thing though. Caught TWO BOOKIES napping with OKC -4 and 215. 6 and 3 point Middles tonight. Just took 3/4 of my bets back with OKC +2 and OVER 212. Will the NBA let it happen? 107-106 DET. I can dream .....

Cavs threw the game last year at Home vs HOU, blowing a 20 point lead and losing the 4Q 32-19. They just repeated it again this year. The press talks about the Cavs up and down season like they're in an identity crisis when the truth of the matter is they're just typical NBA Dirtbags.

Lakers' Russell secretly recorded teammate Young
By The Sports Xchange

Los Angeles Lakers rookie point guard D'Angelo Russell secretly recorded teammate Nick Young talking about women other than fiancee Iggy Azalea, causing a rift with other players on the team.
Sources told ESPN that some teammates' trust in Russell is eroding after a video surfaced in the past week that shows Russell recording a private conversation between himself and Young, who does not appear to realize he is being taped.
The video shows Russell filming Young while asking questions of Young being in relationships with other women. Young and Azalea, an Australian rapper, announced their engagement last June.

According to ESPN sources, the tension in the locker room in recent days was among the factors that contributed to the Lakers' showing in Salt Lake City on Monday night when they absorbed a 48-point embarrassing loss from the Utah Jazz. The 123-75 loss was the Lakers' worst in franchise history.
"It's bad," one team source told ESPN. "It's about as bad as it can get. There were trust issues already. Now there's no trust."
According to the Los Angeles Times, Russell and Young are friends but the video, which was shot a couple of months ago according to a person with knowledge of it, could drive a wedge between them and cause more problems for a team with a 15-59 record in Kobe Bryant's farewell season.

It was unclear who released the video to celebrity gossip site Fameolous or why it took so long to be publicized from the time Russell shot it, according to the Times.
In the video, Russell asks Young at one point, "You was 30 and she was 19?" in referencing Young's age and the age of another woman that Young said he met in a nightclub.

Later in the conversation, while still recording according to ESPN, Russell is heard telling Young, "I'm glad you told my video all that."
"Huh?" Young says, turning his face toward Russell before the video cuts off.
Russell, 20, is averaging 13.1 points, 3.4 assists and 3.4 rebounds and 27.5 minutes in 72 games this season, including 40 starts. He was the No. 2 pick in the 2015 NBA draft.

Young, 30, hasn't played in 10 games and did not travel with the team to face the Jazz because of gastroenteritis, according to the Lakers. Young is averaging 7.3 points in 54 games (two starts) and 19.1 minutes.
Azalea responded on Twitter after the secret video of Young was leaked and picked up on social media.
"hmmm i see D Angelo Russell is trending... I actually liked his film. Thanks bro," Azalea tweeted Wednesday.

Russell walked off the court without speaking to reporters after shootaround on Wednesday, according to ESPN.
"Nope, nothing talk about," Russell said as he went into the team's locker room at their training facility.
A Lakers spokesman said both Russell and Young will speak to the media before Wednesday night's game against the Miami Heat at Staples Center.

Lakers head coach Byron Scott said he hasn't talked to Russell about the video.
"I haven't talked to him, won't talk to him. That's an internal matter that our guys will deal with," Scott said Wednesday. "The only thing that I'm disappointed about is that it got out. We're a family and we try to keep everything in house."

Guys you know Kobe has to win at least one more at Home and probably score 50+ in it.

I want to ride the train, not get hit by it. But which way is it going?

The Heat are - a PHAT 11/11.5 in LA tonight. Dyan Cannon, help me!

Imagine being the guy who makes the line on DeAngelo Russell points and assist props for tonight?

So umm, what do we normally do in situations when a teammates puts a video online of another teammate talking about cheating on his fiance?

DEN +3 / MIN +6 / Old Dom +2
Posting later than usual but it's that time of the year. I don't want to post a Play and 20 minutes later see 3 of my starters come out in suits. Hit both UNDERS in NIT and will of course be on that tomorrow unless all the Squares jump on it. 14-6 last 20 here, 345-322 for the year. 2 year college postseason results = 42-21
