Service Plays Monday 3/14/11

[Can'tPickaWinner2]

The Rx.com Mod Team has created this Service Play sub-forum in order to supply an area for Rx Service Play Posters to expand upon their posting topics without creating a logjam in the main forum where the three principle threads are maintained..

Posters can track services here if they care to but we will need any trackers to do so in an accurate and civil manner. We did not create this area for posters to ridicule or bash any services..

You can also discuss who is hot and who is not. The general state of the pay for plays industry and any other subject or topic related to service plays.

You can also create individual threads about specific services and discuss them freely but civilly. Again bashing and abusive treatment of any services will not be tolerated.

Please remember, this forum is not here for regular posters who cap their own games to post ther daily plays. Please use our individual sport forums to post your plays. Professional cappers (those that sell plays) must remain in the Site Promotion Forum.

The Rx.com will not tolerate posters that post false records of any services they track. Please be truthful if you decide to track a particular service.

Lastly The Rx Moderators are appealing to you our everyday posters to report any promotional threads or posts that are made by services or individual touts. No links or contact information to an individual service will be allowed. Just the name of the service. Please report any threads or posts that are promotional attempts by services and touts to use this forum to promote themselves..

Posters can easily report a promotional post by using the triangular Report-a-Post Icon at the bottom left of all post boxes. The poster name of any poster who reports a post that is out of line will be kept strictly confidential.

I will leave this thread open for a month to take questions and do my best to answer them. I will check in daily but am off on Wednesday and Thursday.

I hope this additional Service Play Forum will satisfy those posters that would like to widen the scope of topics relating to service plays and the industry in general to have their own threads. Mods will be liberal as possible regarding topics but this forum was specifically created to allow you more freedom to express your ideas regarding service plays and related subject matter. No off topic threads will be allowed.

Thank you, wilheim

What Bettors Need to Know: NBA doubleheader on ESPN

San Antonio Spurs at Miami Heat (-4, 199)

The Heat will be looking to avenge one (of many) of their most embarrassing losses this season when they visit the Spurs on Monday night for the second of two meetings between the two NBA Finals contenders. Part III of Miami’s recent and well-publicized five-game losing streak came in San Antonio on March 4. The home team—a 2.5-point favorite—humiliated the reeling visitors 125-95 in a contest that was over after one period (the Spurs led 36-12).

Miami’s “Big 3” shot the ball well and combined for 62 points, but the Heat hardly even attempted to play an ounce of defense. The Spurs showcased their typical team basketball and dished out 29 assists while shooting 46 for 82 from the floor, including a ridiculous 17 for 28 from downtown. An amazing eight guys in San Antonio uniforms scored in double-figures, led by Manu Ginobili’s 20 and Matt Bonner’s 18.

Turn up the Heat

Are Miami’s woes a thing of the past? You never know the way this team has been up and down the entire year, but the five-game slide certainly is in the rearview mirror.

The Heat have won two straight (2-0) ATS, both at home and both in impressive fashion. They toppled the Lakers 94-88 on Thursday then absolutely destroyed Memphis 118-85 on Saturday.

"They have been in a hole and they are trying to turn it around," Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins told the Miami Sun Sentinel. "They knew they had to back up the Thursday night game with this game.”

Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, and Chris Bosh led the way in both contests. Bosh scored 24 points on 10-of-17 shooting against L.A. and Wade did it all with 28 points, nine assists, three steals, and five blocks against Memphis.

Off-the-court items

Wade also scored a big victory in the courtroom over the weekend; he was awarded custody of his two sons.

“My life changed in a huge way," Wade told the Associated Press. "Mentally, I've been preparing for it for over a year now. To me, it's bigger than that. For me, it shows a lot of people that you need to fight to be in your kids' lives sometimes. You fight until you can't fight any more.”

Teammate Zydrunas Ilgauskas, meanwhile, was released from the hospital on Sunday after getting treated for a foot infection. However, he is not expected to suit up for Monday’s showdown.

Trending topics

The Spurs are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 road games, but 3-8 ATS in their last 11 overall.

The Heat are 2-5 ATS in their last seven home games and 2-7 ATS in their last nine overall.

The over is 4-0 in San Antonio’s last four road games and 6-1 in their last seven overall. The over is 10-2 in Miami’s last 12 against the Western Conference.

Head-to-head, the Spurs are 4-0 ATS in the last four encounters. The under is 4-0 in the last four at Miami and 18-3 in the last 21 overall.

Orlando Magic at Los Angeles Lakers (N/A)

This is also a case of the home team gunning for serious revenge on Sunday. In the only previous meeting between the Magic and Lakers this season, Orlando—as a one-point favorite—hammered visiting L.A. 89-75.

Dwight Howard positively overtook the game, going for 31 points and 13 rebounds while missing only four total shots (13 of 16 from the floor, five of six from the line). Jason Richardson was the only other Magic player in double-figures, but the home team dominated the boards 46 to 34. Orlando, though, will want to cut down its turnovers; it coughed up the ball 16 time to the Lakers’ eight.

Kobe or not Kobe, that is the question

Kobe Bryant went down with what he called “the scariest” sprained ankle of his career during the third quarter of a 96-91 win at Dallas on Saturday. Bryant, though, returned in the fourth.

"I thought I was done; like done," he told the Los Angeles Times. "I was just praying that when I stood up, my foot was lined up straight. I thought I dislocated it.

"I had to stop being a chump and just suck it up and go out there and play…. Even though it looks horrible, I can still push off on it."

Bryant is listed as questionable, but he is expected to be good to go for Monday’s clash with Orlando.

This would not be a good time for Bryant to be sidelined, as the Lakers have won nine of their last 10 games (8-2 ATS). Orlando, on the other hand, had lost three of four (0-4 ATS) heading into a Sunday visit to Phoenix.

The Magic are 9-7 (6-10 ATS) in the second of back-to-back games this season.

Trending topics

The Magic are 0-4 ATS in their last four overall and 1-4 ATS in their last five against the Western Conference.

The Lakers are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 overall.

The under is 12-4 in Orlando’s last 16 overall.

Head-to-head, the Magic are 4-1-1 ATS in the last six at the Staples Center, but the Lakers are 4-1-1 ATS in the last six overall. The under is 5-0 in the last five in L.A. and 5-0 in the last five overall.

Miami Heat host Spurs on NBA betting slate

Maybe, just maybe, the Miami Heat are rolling once again.

There hasn’t been any crying in South Florida the past four days as the Heat have posted consecutive impressive home wins against the Los Angeles Lakers and Memphis Grizzlies.

These victories came following five consecutive losses, a streak some thought impossible from a team featuring LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.

But now another major test comes for the Heat courtesy of the San Antonio Spurs, owners of the best record in the NBA at 54-12. No other team has fewer than 17 losses and more than 47 victories.

The Heat host San Antonio Monday night at 5:05 PT with ESPN televising.

Miami’s mental toughness came into question, not to mention its status as an elite team, during the five-game losing streak that included a blown 24-point home lead to Orlando, a 30-point road loss to the Spurs and a one-point home loss to Chicago that left some players in tears.

During this five-game skid, Miami averaged 91.8 points. That’s 10 points down from their 101.6 season average per game.

Then, in perhaps their most crucial game of the season, the Heat defeated the Lakers, 94-88, this past Thursday as one-point home ‘dogs. The Lakers brought an eight-game winning streak into the matchup.

Now the Heat appear back on track following their most impressive showing of the year, destroying Memphis, 118-85, on Saturday night as 7½-point home favorites. The combined 203 points went ‘over’ the 197-point total.

Wade and James enjoyed huge games in the blowout. James scored 27 points despite sitting out the fourth quarter. Wade had a dazzling line of 28 points, nine assists, five rebounds and five blocked shots. The last guard to have statistics like that in a game was Michael Jordan in 1988.

Perhaps lost in the glare of Wade and James was recently acquired veteran point guard Mike Bibby. He produced 17 points and four assists in 25 minutes while connecting on all five of his shots from beyond the arc.

Bibby’s presence has aided starting point guard Mario Chalmers, who is shooting 47 percent from the field and 53 percent from three-point territory during the last five games.

As criticized as the Heat have been this season, they still were within 2½ games of Boston for the top spot in the Eastern Conference going into Sunday’s action.

Miami also clinched a postseason berth with 17 games remaining, the earliest it has accomplished that feat in franchise history.

San Antonio keeps winning but hasn’t been highly motivated. The Spurs are 8-3 in their last 11 games, but just 3-8 ATS.

The Spurs did cover in their last game, defeating Houston this past Saturday, 115-107, as one-point road underdogs. The combined 222 points went ‘over’ the 211-point total.

The Rockets had won seven of their first nine games following the All-Star break going into their matchup against San Antonio. Tony Parker led the Spurs with 21 points. Manu Ginobili chipped in 19 points while Antonio McDyess had 12 points and 12 rebounds.

San Antonio has covered in eight of its last 11 road contests. The Spurs conclude a three-game road trip at Dallas on Friday giving them three days off following this matchup.

The Spurs buried the Heat, 125-95, when they hosted them on March 4. San Antonio was 2½-point favorites and the combined 220 points went ‘over’ the 195½-point total.

The Spurs hit a record 17 3-pointers in the victory. The Heat may still have been in a funk losing to Orlando the night before after blowing a 24-point lead.

The ‘under’ has cashed in six of the past seven times Miami has met a team with a winning record. The ‘over’ has cashed in six of San Antonio’s last seven games.

Pick 'n' roll:

Monday's Best Basketball Bets


Los Angeles Clippers at Memphis Grizzlies (-6, 203)

The Clippers finish off a successful road trip Monday in Memphis and they’re hoping to build upon a great effort on Saturday.

Los Angeles ripped the Washington Wizards 122-101 as a 2.5-point favorite, covering for the fifth time in six games. Blake Griffin led the way with all 26 of his points in the opening 24 minutes and Mo Williams chipped in 22.

"Blake is a phenomenal player," Wizards coach Flip Saunders told the media postgame. "He puts so much pressure on you. He has great strength. He is phenomenal in the open floor."

It was an impressive showing from the Clippers after they looked flat in a loss to New Jersey, a game that Griffin had a chance to win at the charity stripe. But it was encouraging to see Los Angeles rebound by pushing the pace all night against Washington.

They’ll hope to do the same against the Grizzlies, who have lost consecutive games, including a blowout defeat against the Heat.

Pick: Clippers

Golden State Warriors at Sacramento Kings (-1, 217)

The Sacramento Kings have lost six consecutive games and are desperately missing injured guard Tyreke Evans, who averages better than 18 points a night.

Evans has missed the last 13 games with plantar fasciitis and while the team would love to have him back, there is talk that he may not get back on the court this season. It’s not like the Kings have a whole lot to play for at this point to rush him back.

To make matters worse, starting point guard Beno Udrih also sat out Saturday’s 115-103 loss to New Orleans as he battled the flu. His status is still in question for Monday’s game.

Golden State has a quick turnaround after hosting Minnesota on Sunday, but the Warriors have covered in each of their last five meetings with the Kings and should be able to get it done on the road here.

Pick: Warriors

Wild continue NHL odds road trip at Vancouver

Suffering back-to-back 4-0 shutout losses is certainly not the way the Minnesota Wild wanted to begin a four-game road excursion. Things definitely won’t get any easier Monday night when the Wild continue their trip with a stop in Vancouver for a fifth matchup with the league-leading Canucks. The puck drops at 7 p.m. (PT).

The goal drought could not have occurred at a poorer time for a Minnesota team caught in a logjam for the eighth and final Western Conference playoff spot.

Friday’s 4-0 setback at Dallas as 165 road underdogs lowered Minnesota’s ledger to 35-27-2-5 and left the club with 77 points. That’s four points out of the final playoff spot currently occupied by the Kings, Coyotes and Flames.

The fact that the Wild are eight games above .500 is pretty remarkable considering they have allowed eight more goals (184) than they have scored (176).

Minnesota surrendered three goals to Dallas in a span of 1:31 late in the second period. It was the quickest three goals the club has ever allowed on the road.

That was more than enough to put a fork in the Wild and extend the squad’s winless streak in Dallas to 0-10-4 since March 21, 2003.

Minnesota started its current four-game voyage last Thursday with a 4-0 shutout loss at Nashville, so the Wild have now suffered back-to-back shutout losses for the fourth time in team history and first time since 2003.

Both games to begin the trip dipped below the closing total, leaving the ‘under’ 37-27-5 in Minnesota’s first 69 contests. The two losses also lowered Minnesota’s road ledger to 18-14-1-2, which almost matches its 17-13-1-3 home mark.

Mikko Koivu (finger) and Cal Clutterbuck (upper body) still haven't returned to the Minnesota lineup. Guillaume Latendresse, three games into his comeback, suffered a lower body injury in Friday’s loss. All three players are listed as “questionable” on the Don Best Sports injury report.

Vancouver returns home after a wildly successful road trip that saw the club win all five games.

The expedition ended Saturday when the Canucks defeated Calgary as 120 road favorites, 4-3. The win gave Vancouver a league-leading 99 points and left them 29 games above .500.

Vancouver also leads the league in goals scored (229) and has the NHL’s best home ledger (23-7-1-4). The ‘under’ is 35-33-2 in Vancouver’s first 70 overall outings and 10-4 in its last 14 home dates.

Minnesota has split its first four meetings against Vancouver this season, with the ‘over/under’ also split. However, the ‘over’ is 7-2 in the last nine series matchups.

The Wild registered a 6-2 victory in the first matchup on Oct. 19 as 130 home underdogs thanks to going 3-for-3 on the power play. The Canucks went 1-for-6 with the man advantage and outshot the Wild, 27-24.

The two squads met three days later, with Vancouver notching a 5-1 victory as a hefty 215 home favorite. Both teams failed to score on the power play, with Vancouver getting five chances to Minnesota’s four. The Canucks again outshot the Wild, 35-24.

The third meeting (Jan. 16) saw the Wild blank the Canucks 4-0 as 130 home underdogs. Anton Khudobin, playing in just his second game of the season for the Wild, stopped 32 shots to register the win. Vancouver again held a 32-25 advantage in shots on goal.

Vancouver evened the season series on Feb. 15 with a 4-1 victory as a 105 road underdog despite getting outshot, 29-14. Both teams notched a power play goal.

Monday’s goalie matchup figures to be Minnesota’s Niklas Backstrom against Vancouver’s Roberto Luongo. Backstrom is 21-17-0-4 with a 2.39 GAA and .924 save percentage. Luongo is 32-13-2-5 with a 2.24 GAA and .924 save percentage.

Minnesota concludes its tough four-game road journey Thursday at San Jose against the Sharks. Vancouver stays home for a Wednesday meeting against the Colorado Avalanche.

Monday's Best NHL Bets

Tampa Bay Lightning at Toronto Maple Leafs (-115, 5.5)

Guy Boucher is considered by many as one of the most impressive young coaching minds in the NHL, but he’s having a tough time getting as much out of his Tampa Bay Lightning as he would like.

Tampa Bay dropped a 4-3 overtime decision to the lowly Florida Panthers on Saturday, which was the team’s sixth loss in seven games.

Secondary scoring has been a major issue for the Lightning all year. Boucher shuffled the deck with his lines ahead of Saturday’s game in an effort to jumpstart the offense

"I don't have a second line," Boucher said. "Gagne is not putting it in, and Purcell is sometimes in, sometimes out. If we would have had secondary scoring the last two weeks, we might be first in the conference right now."

Gagne responded with three points, though it should be noted all three of Tampa’s goals came on the power play.

You have to like the Lightning to get back on track at this price.

Pick: Lightning

Minnesota Wild at Vancouver Canucks (-210, 5.5)

The Minnesota Wild’s spotty offense has hit yet another pothole this season. The Wild don’t have many premier playmakers on the roster and the team heads into this game having been shutout in two straight contests.

Part of the problem is that captain Mikko Koivu is still out of the lineup with a broken finger and nobody has stepped up to fill his void offensively. The good news is Koivu is practicing and could return any day now, which would be huge. The Wild, who are trying to get back in the Western Conference playoff picture, average just 2.5 goals per game this year.

"No real sugar-coating. It's really rough," forward Matt Cullen said. "It's going to be a good test for our team. We have to respond. Otherwise, it's over. It's lights out. We can't sit here and complain and whine. We've done it to ourselves."

Meanwhile, the Canucks have given up some goals recently, but they head into Monday’s date having won five in a row. They’ll tighten up defensively against this desperate Wild club.

Pick: Under

Monday's Betting Tips: Kobe Bryant Is A Game-Time Decision

Lines To Watch

Orlando Magic at Los Angeles Lakers: Oddsmakers have yet to release a line for this matchup with Kobe Bryant's status in question after he rolled his ankle on Saturday.

Who’s Hot

NBA: San Antonio has played over the total in six of its last seven games.

NBA: Denver has covered in nine of its last 10 games overall, losing outright only twice during that run.

NHL: Vancouver has won five straight games.

Who’s Not

NBA: Washington has just one win over its last 11 games, covering only three times during the slump.

NBA: Houston has covered only six times in its last 27 matchups with the Phoenix Suns.

NHL: Tampa Bay has just one win in its last seven games.

Key Stat

46 percent – The Vancouver Canucks have scored a power play goal in each of their last four games, piling up six goals in 13 opportunities during that span. Vancouver leads the NHL converting 24.8 percent of its power play chances this season and sits second in the league averaging 3.2 goals per game.

Injury That Shouldn’t Be Overlooked

Danilo Gallinari, Arron Afflalo, Denver Nuggets: There was some talk that Gallinari might have had a shot to return from his broken toe injury to play Monday night against the New Orleans Hornets, but now it looks more likely that he won’t play before Friday. The 6-foot-10 forward is putting up almost 16 points and five rebounds per game. Afflalo hasn’t been ruled out for Monday’s game but is considered questionable at best with his hamstring issue.

Game Of The Day

San Antonio Spurs at Miami Heat (-4, 198.5)

Notable Quotable

"We're at the point of the season now where a point isn't good enough," San Jose Sharks defenseman Dan Boyle told reporters following an overtime loss to the Rangers on Saturday. "We had our chances, for sure. You never know if that point could cost us in the end. Hopefully it doesn't." The Sharks are pegged as +120 underdogs at Chicago on Monday.

Tips And Notes

Los Angeles Lakers coach Phil Jackson says that superstar Kobe Bryant is a game-time decision for Monday’s game against Orlando. Bryant rolled his ankle in Saturday’s win over Dallas and has been reportedly receiving treatment on the ankle non-stop. Bryant is putting up 25 points per game and oddsmakers have yet to post a line for the game with his status up in the air.

The New Jersey Nets will welcome All-Star point guard Deron Williams back to the lineup when they take on the Boston Celtics Monday. Williams, who averages better than 15 points and rebounds per game, missed the last two contests due to the birth of his fourth child over the weekend. The team didn’t miss a beat without him, winning and covering against the Warriors and Clippers, to push the team’s winning streak to four games. New Jersey has dropped its last two meetings against the Celtics both straight up and against the spread and is pegged as a 5-point underdog for Monday’s game.

The Minnesota Wild haven’t ruled out injured captain Mikko Koivu for Monday’s game against the Vancouver Canucks. Koivu has been out of action since breaking his finger on Feb. 18. He has 49 points in 58 games this season, while the Wild are pegged as huge +180 underdogs against Vancouver.
