The Wiz Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I thought I would do an update from the floor. I have Dayton by 4 for tonight's game....Vegas is not as bullish showing Day by 6. Post season odds to win March Madness in the A-10.....RI...150-1...St. B 250 -1 ..VCU...500-1....Day...1000-1...The Bills were not listed but the bookie said he thought we would go at 1200-1...so there you go...a $35 bet would pay for tuition. In other areas of interest.....Cards picked to finish 2nd in the Div behind the Cubs. ...Cards are 5-1 to win the NLCS....10-1 to win the World Series The Blues are 5-1 to win the Western Conf.....12-1 to win the Cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnbj14 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Forget the cover, Bills ML +190 this evening is the best financial advice you'll ever get. National TV, chip on the shoulder, and unbridled optimism on a rainy Tuesday afternoon. (I know this is probably bad advice) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No....We are only 1 game removed from the loss of Goodwin...so the numbers aren't solid ....in addition to that Dayton is missing 3 players ...including a regular for the last 3 games due to illness (X Williams).....he is questionable for tonight's game For the Bills this has been the season of uncertainity.

Other than Williams, who else are they missing? Williams hasn't really done anything this year when he's played. Like us, they have little depth.

Cowboy Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 -thanks Wiz, I hope you are cleaning up out there -I am scared to tonight's game as we are not a good shooting team and we shot the ball so well at Rich things get back to the mean at some point, but hopefully we are establishing a new normal and make shots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierce....Since Feb 7....Disciplinary Toppin....All season....Eligibility The key here is if Williams doesn't play they will be short handed too....They recently played an overtime game with only 7 players (and lost) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However our defense is head and shoulders above Day.....So it will be the unstoppable force against the immovable object. This is a winnable game ....both teams are B-.... The key ...stop Cunningham....11th in nation in FG%....64th in reb....Hold him to 12 pts and 6 reb. Bottom line... we don't have to shoot as good as last time but better than we usually do....45/35/70 with 11 TOs will do it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the "unstoppable force vs the immovable object" duel...the unstoppable force won. There were some good things that happened...we stopped Cunningham....we needed to hold him to 12 pts and 6 reb....he scored 8 with 6 reb....we needed 11 TOs or less to win....we got 11....the weak spot was the slash line ...we needed 45/35/70 to win....we got 46/22/40...if we make the slash we score 6 more pts and win. We were close but no cigar.....Again we didn't need super shooting numbers like last game to win....just average numbers would have won this game.

Iggy Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I locked in the Cardinals to win the World Series at 16-1 at the Golden Nugget back on December 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odds change every day..... and even on the same day they differ from place to place....It is like gas prices....you can shop around and maybe get a better price. In the end even when prices (odds) are different, they still tend to move together in the same direction. Even if the Cards odds are different at a different book the Cubs are still picked to win almost everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The box score shows SLU shot 44% overall and 33% from 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes...This is true....the FG% & 3P% got transposed but by a weird coincidence when I brought the corrected Bills slash line (44/33/ 40) up to the target slash (45/35/70) it still came out to the same 6 additional points for the Bills.
