Lines pulled from WSEX 4:30 PM PST 4/23/08

ORLANDO +4.0 or +170

CLEVELAND +5.0 or +190

NEW ORLEANS +5.0 or +190

SAN ANTONIO +7.0 or +250

I know they are away games and Orl and Clev are coming off two wins so there might be a let down game. I also know that Phx should put up a good fight.

However i believe that if you bet ML on all of these you would make money. You just need two winners.

They are over priced. The home team is 13-3 SU, and 11-5 ATS.

A quick playoff note:

30 games have been played and the line came into play only 3 times so far.

San Antonio Phoenix game 1
Orlando Toronto game 2
Utah Houston game 4

This is what most bettors don't do but they should. They are more inclined to do the exact opposite and increase the houses edge.

" Play the underdog on the moneyline, and the favorite on the pointspread ".
