Two "Starters" Out: Spurs 2.5 Pt Favorites

[Spurtacular]

Forbes and Lyles out. Spurs are 2.5 pt. favorites against the lower seeded Grizzlies on a neutral court.

:lol Poop

3 starters my man, I know its EASY(oh I whish it were just earase his ENTIRE timeline) but LMA is out and is a Starter....

Ship him back to Portland...

Yea, forgot about him. Not sure he was the problem though, tbh.

I only boxscored it. Busy moving. But wow :lobt:

I believe. It’s possible Spurs are ahead of where I thought and were held back?

Ps I DVR and hope to watch later or tomorrow.

I have indeed wondered about LMA.

Book and odds makers know what's up.
I got all over yesterdays game when I read Bryn Bryn was injured out and Patty Pet too.

Today i was not as confident. Gregg did not disappoint. :rollin
Late close game out of timeout we get 2-11 Gay with a three point attempt.

Take that for data!

Hope you did money line. I knew it might go the Grizz's way on the points.

Damn, Vegas just about nailed that one.

Oh ya i literally never take Craig to cover the points in a win.
He's been absolute money to bet against these past two seasons.

Now with Bryn Bryn and LMA out and Patty limited, changes everything. The Patty thing appeared to be only one game tho.
Can't wait for the presser if one of the media grows a pair and asks Gregg if the 2 game winning streak means he might want to stick with the current young uns.

Dude we've got to get the picks thread going again. Pittsburg @ Chi Cubs the past two days with wind blowing in and good pitching on both sides has been money for Under 9.

These last two games I've only seen bits and pieces. But the young guys have shown plenty of growth for the future. That young foursome is really fun to watch. Now we need to build around that and hope Samanic is only a year away also.

Damn, Vegas just about nailed that one.

Just about? Obviously they couldn't get the half point. :lol

Sorry, but the entire premise of this post is false. Memphis was a 2.5 or 3 point favorite everywhere.

I remember seeing them as a 3 point favorite this morning then googled it tonight to be sure that was correct.

The link below has 8 different Vegas betting lines -- all have Memphis favored by 2.5 (one source) or 3 (the other seven) points.

Ya know, I really should have known better than to assume that OP was presenting valid factual info.

Forbes being out is definitely addition by subtraction, but Lyles would probably keep the ball moving better than Gay, and Aldridge + Poeltl is a huge upgrade over Poeltl + Eubanks, even though Eubanks has been surprisingly good.

The Spurs are 7 point underdogs to the 76ers tonight.

All three games, so far, the Spurs have been underdogs, but this is the biggest (the other two were about 3 points).

It may get bet down some but still a big spread . . .
