Rod's NBA Tuesday

My plays range from 1-15 units, as a rule of thumb I rarely make plays over 5-7 units though.

I'm about 160+ this season, not going to post my record here though because frankly it is not going to mean anything given this is my first posted play here.

Wizards -3.5 v Raptors (7)

The Wizards owe the Raptors tonight after dropping a pair of games to them already this season. Although the Wizards have only managed to beat some poor opposition by the one point in their last 2 games, I'll put it down more to to reintroduction of both Butler and especially Jamison who was coming back from a lengthy injury layoff. Both were able to contribute on Sunday to ease the offensive load on Arenas against the Warriors combing for 38 points. Both will better for the games under their belt. It's also fair to say the novelty value of the Raptors has finally ended, after coming off a home loss against a team who had nothing but pride to play for in the Bucks and then getting pasted by the Cavs on the road.

Hopefully Bargnani isn't able to suit up tonight, I'm amazed to even hear he was a chance to play tonight given he only left for Italy a few days ago and is only scheduled to arrive back before the game. For those who don't know, flying from Rome to the East coast of the states is around 8 hours, how on earth will he be effective at all even if he does play?

One reason for the Raptors recent success has been the way Bosh has been able to beat the opposition's double team by finding the open Parker (who obviously isn't playing tonight) or Bargnani at the top of the key to knock in the easy jumper - don't underestimate the Italian's importance to this team especially over the past couple of months....
