    SBR NBA consensus always a step behind

    A few observation i've found on this forum. Everyone on here seems to be trend followers. 2 days ago, i could not find anyone to give the points to Houston. Yesterday, Cavs and King James had maybe 2 fans on this forum. Tonight i have seen a few posts already saying Warriors blow the Rockets out between 10-25.

    I'd hate to see some people's bankrolls.

    Rockets cover spread here and go against the SBR public again tonight.

    Rockets ML is looking good here. I'd advise checking live betting for this.

    I would not say "everyone" on here is a "trend follower" as you put it. There are some really smart guys here.

    I would say a lot of people lost here again tonight, however.

    This forum is full of retarded bettors, for sure. I usually check to make sure I'm not on the same side of the majority here before placing a bet. There are a few posters here who are some of the greatest fades you'll ever find. Cashed Rockets on the spread 5 games in a row now as the majority keeps believing the Clips and Warriors are better than they really are. If only I'd pressed my bet every time. Rockets ATS might cash 6 or 7 times this series due to a retarded public inflating the lines.

    Rockets +1750 on 5 dimes (reduced juice) to win series is one the best series bets I've seen in a very long time.

    A better example was the hilarious "pre-winning party" literally everyone on SBR (including several in this thread) were having about WAS -2 winning game 6 against ATL before tip off.

    Literally 95% of the board was "sure" WAS would win that game easily, yada yada yada, ATL closed out the series.

    Wasn't as bad for GS/HOU game 2, but I couldn't believe how many fools were willing to lay -10.5 points on any Round 3 series game. Crazy. Round 1 or 2, where you have scrub teams that squeaked into the playoffs and are a full level down in talent to the high seeds? Yes, sometimes a 10 point lay makes sense...but even then rarely.

    Gotta love the SBR braintrust. If you're tailing anyone here, anyone at all, and not making your own picks with your own systems or handicapping, you are in trouble. This board should just be for entertainment value and trolling...never tailing.

    Not bashing anyone here, pal. If you aren't able to decipher the difference between the two and just felt like putting up a witty blast in writing, go and write yourself a novel. Otherwise, just relax.

    Just pointing out several things that I have noticed in terms of people who make plays on this forum. Funnily enough! it's happening again here tonight. Hawks will not go 0-2 down in this series and should get the W here. Already i'm seeing people post about the Cavs winning again here tonight and taking the series in a sweep. I'm blown away at the public.

    I haven't made a bet in weeks, and almost months. The last time i did i went against my rule of fading the biggest idiots here and i lost. since fading wizzle, and lakerboy i rarely lose.

    People backing the rockets tonight.... sportsbooks are licking their lips at the money rolling in for Houston. Can't believe it!!

    Warriors should most definitely sweep the Rockets, and get their week off before NBA finals.

    Rockets break 3 NBA records in the first quater and the league MVP sits 18 minutes of the game. The public bet was Houston and by absolute pure luck and a '1 off' the public gets it right.

    Big night coming on Wednesday for the Warriors
