Service Plays Thursday 5/19/11

[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

Thunder at Mavericks: What Bettors Need To Know

Oklahoma City Thunder at Dallas Mavericks (-5.5)
Dallas Leads Series 1-0

THE STORY: After getting one of the greatest shooting efforts in NBA playoff history two nights earlier, the Dallas Mavericks will be hoping for an encore performance from Dirk Nowitzki in Game 2 of the Western Conference Final on Thursday. Nowitzki erupted for 48 points while going perfect on 24 free throws as the Mavs cruised past the Oklahoma City Thunder 121-112.

TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN

ABOUT THE THUNDER: Oklahoma City had absolutely no answer for Nowitzki, who shredded the Thunder's troop of big men from start to finish. Kendrick Perkins landed in early foul trouble and was tentative the rest of the way. Nazr Mohammed did not have the lateral quickness to keep up with Nowitzki, who used an array of stepback jumpers and drives to the lane to generate most of his offense. Serge Ibaka did the best job against Nowitzki, but even he found himself somewhat neutralized by the foul count and simply incapable of keeping Nowitzki from scoring at will. Kevin Durant had a similarly dominant night, scoring 40 points in defeat. Unlike Nowitzki, Durant didn't get enough from his supporting cast - particularly Russell Westbrook, who scored 20 points but made just three of 15 shots.

ABOUT THE MAVERICKS: Nowitzki's night was one for the record books. His 24-for-24 result from the free-throw line established a new league playoff record for most made free throws without a miss, breaking the old mark of 21 set by Boston's Paul Pierce in 2003. Nowitzki also hit 12 of 15 shots from the field, falling just two points shy of his single-game playoff record without even attempting a 3-pointer. Jason Terry took care of the long-distance scoring, burying four 3s to finish with 24 points off the bench. J.J. Barea added 21, including 12 straight Dallas points during a pivotal fourth-quarter stretch. Oklahoma City simply couldn't keep up with the Mavericks' relentless offense, with the pick-and-roll working to near-perfection throughout the game.

WHO'S HOT/WHO'S NOT: Nowitzki is shooting 62 percent (62 for 100) from the floor over his last six games, including 8 for 12 from beyond the arc. Westbook has made just 7 of 27 shots over the past two outings, and hasn't attempted a 3-pointer in either of them.

KEY STATISTIC: 50-22 - Dallas' advantage in bench scoring in Game 1. With Nowitzki and Durant expected to cancel each other out, the Thunder cannot afford to see their reserves outscored so handily moving forward.

TRENDS:

* Over is 5-0 in the last five meetings in Dallas.
* Thunder are 6-1-1 ATS in the last eight meetings in Dallas.
* Over is 4-1 in the last five meetings.
* Thunder are 9-4-1 ATS in the last 14 meetings.
* Underdog is 9-4-1 ATS in the last 14 meetings.
* Road team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings.

LAST WORD: "He's a man on a mission right now." - Mavericks center Tyson Chandler, speaking about Nowitzki.

PICK 'N' ROLL

Thursday’s Best NBA Bets

Oklahoma City Thunder at Dallas Mavericks (-5.5, 200)

Game 1 between these teams couldn’t have been more choppy. For most of the evening, it seemed like referees Joe Crawford, Bill Kennedy and Zach Zarba thought people came to watch them blow their whistles.

The incompetent trio whistled 58 combined fouls as each side attempted at least 36 free throws. Mavs forward Dirk Nowitzki was an NBA postseason record 24-for-24 from the charity stripe and Thunder star Kevin Durant was 18-for-19.

Both stars won’t have as absurd totals in Game 2, but there is little reason to think that it still won’t be a high-scoring affair. Dallas and Oklahoma City each have seen the past two games go over the total and love to get up and down the floor with deep benches.

Following a loss this postseason, Oklahoma City has allowed an opponent to score at least 100 points three out of four times. Overall, the Thunder have surrendered at least 100 points in four of six road games.

The Mavericks would welcome a fast-paced game against the Thunder too. Dallas has scored at least 93 points in four of five home games this postseason and cracked the century mark three times during that span.

"Whatever comes comes," Nowitzki, who had 48 points in Game 1, said. "I'm not really expecting anything. I'm going to go in there and try to attack like I always do and when they come I think we all have confidence in our shooting ability ... Whatever they give me or the team we've got to be able to attack and I think there's nothing really I haven't seen in my 13 years. They might double-team, they might bring the center over and flood the strong side, but whatever we've got to be ready to attack.”

Look for both teams to be on the attack.

PICK: Over

MLB NEWS AND NOTES
MLB Betting Preview: Giants at Los Angeles Dodgers
By: Adam Markowitz



San Francisco Giants at Los Angeles Dodgers (-125, 6.5)

When you talk about rivalries in MLB betting action, you won't find much more hatred than there is between the San Francisco Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers. Dating all the way back to their time in the Big Apple, these two teams have always hated each other.

You can always throw out the record books when these two duke it out, and Thursday's 7:10 p.m. (PT) start time at Dodger Stadium in LA should be no exception.

Poor Madison Bumgarner really hasn't gotten a heck of a lot of help from his mates this season. Last season, Bumgarner really busted onto the scene in great form, helping pitch the G-Men to a triumph on the World Series betting lines.

This year, he hasn't pitched fantastically, but he hasn't been a total disappointment either...except in terms of wins and losses.

The Giants have had five games this year of his eight started in which they gave Bumgarner either no runs or just one run of support. He hasn't gotten more than five runs of support all season long, and the lineup is averaging just 1.88 runs per game.

Despite the fact that he has a relatively respectable 4.25 ERA and a 1.42 WHIP, Bumgarner is 0-6 to show for his work, and San Francisco backers only have one win with him on the bump.

For his brief career, Bumgarner has gone up against the Dodgers three times, twice as a starter and once as a reliever. He has allowed seven runs, six of which have been earned in 11 2/3 innings of work.

Chad Billingsley doesn't want to talk all that much about getting run support from his team either. The Dodgers are averaging 3.8 runs per game this year, ranking No. 28 in baseball, and it feels like Billingsley has been the butt of every joke since the start of May.

He has taken the hill three times, and in spite of the fact that he has only allowed five runs in those three games and thrown a total of 22 innings, he is 0-2 and the team is 0-3 thanks to the fact that the Dodgers have given him a grand total of two runs of help.

Billingsley, much like Bumgarner, has relatively decent splits on the year. He has a 3.36 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP, and for the first time since 2008, he is on a pace to have a shot to reach the 200-strikeout barrier.

Still, Billingsley is only 2-3 to show for his work, numbers which absolutely have to improve if the Dodgers are going to get back in the NL West race.

The good news is that Billingsley has been great against the Giants in his career, going 7-3 with a 2.93 ERA, including a pair of complete game shutouts.

So far this season, LA leads the series 4-3, including taking three of the four games here at Chavez Ravine. The favorite is 6-1 at plus $489 on the season, and is 8-1, plus $689 dating back to the final two meetings of last year.

Comcast SportsNet Bay Area and Fox Sports Pacific will have live coverage of this MLB wagering war. Nice weather, as always, is expected in Tinseltown, with temperatures in the high-50s or low-60s and light winds.

HOT LINES

Thursday's Best MLB Bets

Pittsburgh Pirates at Cincinnati Reds (-200, 8)

Last year, Johnny Cueto had a bit of an up-and-down season.

He finished with a 12-7 record and ended up with career bests in ERA (3.64) and innings pitched (185.2). However, his maturity was also called into question when he was suspended for seven games for kicking St. Louis’ Chris Carpenter and Jason LaRue in a brawl - which spelled the end of LaRue’s career – and he was still prone to giving up big innings.

This year, it looks like he’s getting it all together. He began the year on the DL with shoulder inflammation but looked just fine in his first start of the year in shutting out the Cubs over six innings and then threw 7 2/3 innings in a big win over those hated Cardinals.

Heading into Thursday’s start, he has yet to give up an earned run. Meanwhile, the Pirates had scored more than two runs only once in their last five games ahead of Wednesday night’s action.

We won’t even look at the Reds at this price, but we’ll jump on the under.

PICK: Under


San Francisco Giants at Los Angeles Dodgers (-125, 6.5)

You have to figure Madison Bumgarner is in line for some good luck - or at least some support - eventually.

He’s pitched pretty well for the most part this season, holding his opposition to three or fewer runs in five of his eight starts this year, but he’s still searching for his first win of the season.

"He's a bulldog. He's tough," Cody Ross told reporters of Bumgarner. "He's a 21-year-old man. He had a lot of success in the playoffs last year. He's confident he can pitch in big situations. It's a matter of time before he gets out of it, or we score some runs for him. He's got a good head on his shoulders. He's not affected by his record."

We tend to agree. The Giants need to string a few wins together to keep pace with Colorado at the top of the NL West. San Francisco heads home for a weekend set with Oakland after Thursday’s game.

PICK: Giants

Bruins at Lightning: What Bettors Need To Know

Boston Bruins at Tampa Bay Lightning (-152, 5.5)
Series Tied 1-1

THE STORY: The Tampa Bay Lightning scored 13 seconds into Game 2 on Tuesday and the collective groan let out by the TD Garden faithful suggested that the hometown Boston Bruins might be in for a long night. As it turned out, the Bruins erupted for five second-period goals and held on for a 6-5 triumph to even the Eastern Conference finals at one game apiece. Playing in place of an injured Patrice Bergeron, rookie Tyler Seguin collected two goals and two assists and Michael Ryder also scored twice to fuel the charge. The loss snapped a franchise-tying eight-game postseason winning streak for Tampa Bay, which now heads home to host Game 3 on Thursday.

TV: 8 ET, VERSUS, TSN, RDS

ABOUT THE LIGHTNING: Tampa Bay suffered its first loss in nearly a month. Well, 27 days to be exact. The Lightning fell to the Pittsburgh Penguins in Game 4 to be pushed to the brink of elimination before winning their next eight contests. Captain Vincent Lecavalier had a goal and three assists and Steven Stamkos recorded three points (one goal and two assists) and a team-high seven shots on goal in Game 2. Dwayne Roloson permitted six goals on 27 shots before being relieved by Mike Smith to start the third period. The 41-year-old Roloson will be back in net for Game 3. The Lightning lost for the first time in nine playoff games when scoring first. After collecting just two penalty minutes during the team's sweep of the Washington Capitals in the conference semifinals, Ryan Malone spent six minutes in the box on Tuesday.

ABOUT THE BRUINS: Vezina Trophy finalist Tim Thomas overcame Adam Hall's early goal and turned aside 36 shots. Seguin got the TD Garden crowd rockin' when he converted a breakaway to tie the game at 2-2 just 48 seconds into the second period. After David Krejci gave Boston the lead 96 seconds later, Seguin netted his second of the contest when he scored on a 2-on-1 advantage. He would later assist on both of Ryder's goals late in the session. Milan Lucic had a team-high five shots in nearly 21 minutes of ice time.

WHO'S HOT/WHO’S NOT: After being held off the scoresheet in Game 1, Nathan Horton recorded a goal and two assists to continue his impressive maiden voyage in the postseason. Horton has now collected 11 points in his last seven games. Tampa Bay's Steve Downie started the postseason with a bang by recording 12 points, but he has failed to secure a point in the first two games of this series.

SPECIAL TEAMS: After going 0-for-4 in the series opener and 2-for-41 in the playoffs, Boston finally ignited its dormant power play. The Bruins went 2-for-6 with the man advantage in Game 2 as Horton and Ryder scored on Tuesday. For its part, Tampa Bay went 1-for-4 on the power play in Game 2 and is now 14-for-52 in the playoffs. The Lightning have also killed off 59 of 64 shorthanded situations.

TRENDS:

* Over is 4-1 in the last five meetings.
* Bruins are 4-1 in the last five meetings.
* Home team is 9-4 in the last 13 meetings.

LAST WORD: "It’s hard sitting there and not being able to help the boys,” Seguin, on being a healthy scratch during the first two rounds of the playoffs. The second overall pick of the 2010 draft, Seguin gained entry into the lineup after Bergeron was sidelined with a mild concussion.

ICE PICKS

Thursday’s Best NHL Bets

Boston Bruins at Tampa Bay Lightning (-135, 5.5)

The Tampa Bay Lightning have found their offensive stride – and it’s at a bad time for the Bruins.

Boston has ridden the white hot goaltending of Tim Thomas this season, but now must go on the road to face the Lightning after securing a 6-5 win in Game 2 to even the series at 1-1. And the road hasn’t been the kindest place in the world to the Bruins. The team has given up nearly three goals per game in 5 away tilts this postseason.

Overall, the Bruins have seen the over hit in four straight and six of their past seven.

But expect them to keep scoring – even if they are giving up a little too much on the defensive side. Rookie center Tyler Seguin caught the eye of fans around the NHL with his two-goal, two-assist second period in Game 2, making him the first teenager to score four points in a single period of a playoff game and the first player to do it at all since Trevor Linden in 1989.

“He played unbelievable,” Seguin’s linemate Michael Ryder said. “He was dominant today and it’s good to see him play like that, you know? Hopefully he can keep it going. ... Obviously you’re not going to see every night a four point game from him, but as long as he’ll be playing with the speed he is and the intensity, he’s going to bring a lot to this team.”

Tampa Bay will have to match that speed and the Lightning seem ready. Seguin’s performance overshadowed an equally impressive four-point night from Lightning forward Vincent Lecavalier.

Tampa Bay has scored 26 goals over its past six games – five wins – and has seen the over hit five times during that span.

“We’re not a team that is waiting to win games,” Tampa Bay coach Guy Boucher said. “We like to push to win games. Obviously, when it’s time to play defense, it’s time to play defense. When we’ve got the puck we keep pushing.”

PICK: OVER

Thursday’s Betting Tips: Time To Double-Team Dirk?

Who's Hot

NBA: Dallas is 19-6-1 against the spread in its last 26 games overall.

NHL: The home team is 9-4 in the last 13 meetings between the Lightning and Bruins.

MLB: Cincinnati is 7-2 in Johnny Cueto’s last nine starts against Pittsburgh.

Who’s Not

NBA: Just one of the last five meetings between Dallas and Oklahoma City have played under the total.

NHL: The under is 5-16-2 in Tampa Bay’s last 23 home games.

MLB: The Chicago Cubs are 2-7 in their last nine games on fieldturf.

Key Stat

78.6 – NBA teams that win the first of a seven-game series go on to win the series 78.6 percent of the time. Dallas took Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder 121-112, covering as a 6-point favorite and bettering their playoff record to 10-0-1 against the spread.

Injury That Shouldn’t Be Overlooked

Colby Rasmus, St. Louis Cardinals – Rasmus was held out of the lineup again on Wednesday, even though tests didn’t reveal any structural damage in an abdominal injury that has been bothering him. Rasmus says the team is “playing it safe” with the ailment that has kept him out of the last three games. The center fielder is hitting .305 this season as the club gets set for Thursday’s matinee with Houston.

Game Of The Day

Oklahoma City Thunder at Dallas Mavericks (-5.5, 200)

Notable Quotable

"After eight games of playing solid, structured and intense and doing things down to the 'T' there's bound to be some point you have something that might be a little different. Even if we would have won that game, we wouldn't be happy with the way we played…It seemed like it was going to be a weird game so we want to make sure we are not that weird for the next game." – Tampa Bay Lightning coach Guy Boucher after his team couldn’t extend an eight-game winning streak on Tuesday. Tampa Bay hadn’t allowed more than three goals in a contest during the playoffs before Boston won 6-5 to even the series at one game apiece.

Tips And Notes

Dirk Nowitzki went bananas Dallas’ Game 1 win over Oklahoma, hitting 12 of his 15 shots from the floor while nailing an NBA-record 24 straight free throws to finish with 48 points. Still, Thunder coach Scott Brooks elected to guard him with single coverage throughout the game, leaving everyone wondering how OKC will try to slow Nowitzki in Game 2.

Zach Johnson set the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial’s scoring record last season by winning the tournament with a score of 21-under. Part of his success at the tournament is the way he plays at the Horseshoe – the stretch from hole No. 3-No. 5. While most players struggled with the Horseshoe, Johnson shot 1 under with 11 pars and a birdie. Johnson is set at +2500 to win again this year.
