    2014-15 NBA picks

    Not going to play nearly as many NBA games this year, but I'm bored and need something to bet on, so every once in a while I'll post some wagers on slow nights like this one.

    FWIW, I've watched about 2 minutes of pro ball so far. In other words, fade away.

    HOU +1.5 -108 (2.16U to win 2)
    POR +3 -108 (2.16U to win 2)
    WAS -1 -110 (1.1U to win 1)

    BOL to everyone this year.

    Thanks. I don't know about this one. We'll see. Just trying to clarify I've put zero legwork into this season, so my results will probably reflect that.

    What can I say. Degenerate city.

    Adding a tat special:

    OKC +11.5 -103 (2.06U to win 2)

    Just don't bet totals. I've ready gotten burned several times already.

    I'm sick of getting 3-4 more possessions in the final 20 seconds of a half when I have the under or if I need the over teams can't throw it in the ocean and miss a ton of free throws.

    I tell myself I'm going to stay away from totals every year...

    That's actually one of my betting resolutions that I managed to stick with. Just stop even looking at the lines. Honestly I could probably guess a total 10 points off looking at a random game without knowing where it's set. It's as if they don't even exist to me anymore.

    Just maybe twice a year I bet a Bulls under because it's so obvious the game is going under that they could set the line at 150 and the game would still go under

    Nice work. Sorry you missed okc. I hit 1H and got a lucky push on the game spread.

    Have a parlay alive okc 1H ml+350 to 49ers +190 for some change.

    Keep winning!

    Not necessarily. I think the probability vs value is on their side. It's just a 25 to win 300 something bet

    i watched all kings games so far. they look way better than anything i have ever seen from them in the last 5 years. cousins isnt bitching every play that doesnt go his way, so that helps a lot.

    also now they have a legit closer.

    Lets slow Down with the Kings.

    The 76ers looked good the first week last season.

    What bold statement did you make?

    Are you saying the Kings are a playoff team?

    They'll win like 38 games at best IMO.

    I don't make a lot of bold statements because most bold statement turn out t be completely wrong.

    considering their w/l was set at 30, saying they win 38 is a bold statement
