Possible THREE System plays tonight

Been doing this system for 20 years and honestly never seen this many games in one night. Honestly, at the most I'll post 2 later. Here's the story...

Miami -17 over Cleveland
This one adds up in my system because of the huge size, rebounding and interior advantage that Miami possesses. However, about 3 years ago I removed all games that have pointspreads over 13. That said, I removed these games because usually it is basically up to the team's whim whether they win by 10 or 20. In this case, I think we can all think of a good reason Miami might be motivated to win by 40.

Charlotte +7 over Memphis
Also another great matchup. I'm almost certainly playing this one once I find out about Gerald Wallace, who tweaked an ankle last night. Otherwise, this one looks good across the board. Memphis rebounds terribly (except for Z-Bo) and shouldn't be favored by 7 over anyone, particularly a good rebounding team like Charlotte that plays decent on the road (mainly because they have just as many fans there as they do at home)

Minnesota +9- over Phoenix
LOVE this play. Minnesota crashes the boards and cleans up lots of rebounds on both sides of the floor - while Phoenix doesn't even try to offensive rebound. Minnesota should get enough second chance points to stay with the Suns.

I'll post my official thread later.

Making this one official....

Minnesota +9- over Phoenix

Already made small plays on Miami -16- and Charlotte +9, but due to my rules for the system, Miami will NOT be a play. It looks more and more like Gerald Wallace is out, which forces me to make a decision tonight. My system is based on defense and rebounding, so my lean is that Charlotte is a no-play (officially) due to his absence. That said, I played them both small anyway. Maybe Wallace plays and I get the 2 extra points!

Went ahead and played a "medium" amount on Charlotte. Not an 'official' pick but still looks good.
