Townsville Crocodiles vs Cairns Taipans
Game total over 153.0 @1.90

With 90 points scored in the 1st half, this was headed for the bank, but we had some anxious moments with the Taipans unable to get scoring! It could've been a tough beat but the Crocs came through to push it over with a final score of 95-67(162 total).

1-0

Sydney Kings vs New Zealand Breakers
Game total over 169.5 @1.85

Juiced line but the Breakers should have another 90+ total & the Kings a better shooting effort after last week's collapse.

Breakers steamrolled the kings, who could only manage 27% shooting. Their worst performance in franchise history sank any hopes of the over.

Hawks rallied to cover the spread after the 36ers came very close to spoiling it. A higher scoring game killed the under but grateful to start the day with a 1-1 result. Then the books proved just as clueless as NBL punters when the Taipans toppled the Blaze in a huge 91-82 upset to cash the play.

Today: 2-1

Game total OVER 162.5 @1.90

Going with both overs today. A couple of tough games though & I wouldn't be surprised to scrape home by 1-2 points.

Good luck today.

Like GC game over.

Hard to know how Sydney will go. last week they looked like they hadn't played the game before.

MrXYZ · 10-21-11, 03:27 AM

Thanks & BOL tonight. I'm expecting Sydney to score at least 80 tonight but still lose to Adelaide. I think this will be a higher scoring round.

hawley · 10-21-11, 03:31 AM

Sydney will not lay a goose egg like last week.

ADELAIDE 36ERS vs SYDNEY KINGS
Game total OVER 162.5 @1.90

final score: 71-94

Blaze dominated the Hawks, who could only manage 58 points. Another one sided game with the kings easy winners & this one was headed under too. But a combination of fouls and the 36ers rush of 3 point bombs in the dying stages of the 4th quarter got us home.

1-1

MELBOURNE TIGERS vs NEW ZEALAND BREAKERS
Game total OVER 171.5 @1.90

Harsh words in the lead up means this one could get spiteful with plenty of fouls. NZ will have their usual 80+ game but it'LL be another close call like Sydney last night.

Thanks & good luck tonight. I'm leaning under on Perth/Adelaide. I think Australia wins easily against NZ but wouldn't take -13.5 points considering the unfamiliar ground & conditions.

i like wildcats/36ers game over 165. where did you get -13.5 for kangaroos/kiwis game? Im all over kangaroos-10.5. gl to you.

MrXYZ · 10-28-11, 04:20 AM

Thanks & same to you. The Wildcats should run away with it so its up to the 36ers to score enough to get you home. I think the defense will be too much, but who knows in this league. A crap start to the round for me, 0-2.

I found -13.5 at CentreBet.

Going with the Tigers tonight. They're +1.5 dogs but I think they'll knock off the home team in a close one.

My apologies for anyone who tailed last week. This league is a joke but hopefully we cash some winners this round. Good luck.

NBL Record so far: 7-7-1

A big 2nd quarter had me worried, but Perth turned up the intensity, shutting down the Hawks in the final stretch to cash the total. Final score: 87-71.

CAIRNS TAIPANS vs NEW ZEALAND BREAKERS
BREAKERS -4.0 @1.91

My only play for this round. Going with the Breakers - after last week's disaster, they'll be looking to strike some form & should take this one by 8 to 10 points. Cairns are desperate to avoid a 3rd straight loss so they'll put up a decent fight.

MELBOURNE TIGERS vs SYDNEY KINGS
SYDNEY +3.5 @1.91

Patty Mills was class above the NBL but he's gone & the Tigers also have an injury concern over their centre. It's always a risk taking the garbage Kings, but this is a good spot for them to get a road win.

therealdealau · 11-25-11, 03:34 AM

love the kings play managed to get +4 myself lets see how this turns out

ADELAIDE 36ers vs GOLD COAST BLAZE
GOLD COAST -1.5 @1.91

Game opened at PK with both teams @1.91. The play has lost some value, with money pounding the Blazers into 1.85 before settling at -1.5 @1.91.

The 36ers toppling the Melbourne Tigers last week has everyone expecting a close game, and another upset is possible. However the Blaze are serious title contenders & should prove too strong today, winning by at least 4.
