With the NBA in full swing I haven't been giving much attention to the Aussie league. However I'll still post a few plays as we close out the season and head to the playoffs.

How you been doing in the NBA Mr XYZ?

[MrXYZ]

Had a good week with my square Lakers & Celtics picks hitting. Was on a losing streak until the Pacers beat the Warriors & since then have been doing really well. But I'm keeping my units small as this season started off badly. Some tough beats (missed the 76ers/Kings total by 0.5) almost buried me until a chase play on a Nets total got me back on track. I'm on a good run betting live at my local TAB, they tend to offer some soft lines every once in a while. How bout you?

The lowest total in the NBL this season, a square play but worth a shot.

CAIRNS TAIPANS vs TOWNSVILLE CROCODILES

Easy money with the Taipans beating the Crocs 85-81.

WOLLONGONG HAWKS vs NEW ZEALAND BREAKERS
Game Total OVER 157.5 @1.90

We'll need the Breakers to maintain their high scoring run & Hawks to keep up in order to bank this one. If not, i's dead by half time. Regardless, I'm rolling the over at this number.

[brettels]

What do you think of the NZ line at -5.5?

What do you think of the NZ line at -5.5?

Sorry for not getting back to you in time. I was leaning NZ at that number & almost played it. Luckily I didn't, hope you gave it a pass too.

[brettels]

yeah gave it a miss, didn't play anything on it but did keep update on the score to re assure myself on how unreliable NBL can be

Friday 17 February
TOWNSVILLE CROCODILES vs CAIRNS TAIPANS
Game total OVER 150.5 @1.90

I don't expect the under festival to continue, but this is the NBL, where garbage happens. A similar total to last time these two teams met and although it should be a lower scoring game, gotta take the over at this number,

As my focus is NBA, I continue to keep my plays small in the local league, which I consider an embarrassment to the game of basketball. I always keep in mind the time I saw a guy at my local TAB feed a heap of $50 bills into the machine & dump it on the Sydney Kings on some game where they were favourites. Needless to say he got buried...

This little side project was mainly created to keep me amused while the NBA was locked out and for laughs, but lately it's just annoying so this might be the last week.

PERTH WILDCATS vs SYDNEY KINGS
KINGS +13.5 @1.91

The Kings are a mess & most likely get flattened by the Wildcats, but a sneaky back door cover is always possible.

lolz. Hoping to do better this week.

Wollongong Hawks vs Gold Coast Blaze

Adelaide 36ers vs Perth Wildcats
WILDCATS -5.5 @1.91

Square plays but Cats & Blaze are taking on the bottom 2 teams tonight. Blaze are looking to strike back from last week's dreadful performance. Wildcats are gunning for the 1 spot on the ladder. Even though home court is a huge factor in the NBL I'm rolling with the favourites.

[That Guy]

Cheers for the tips.
What's your record like capping NBL totals?
Thinking about having a big play tonight for the first time (guess the NBA break gives me some down time).

[MrXYZ]

My record has gone downhill lately. I DON'T recommend going big on the NBL. I always stick to real money on real basketball(NBA) & keep my unit size in the pizza range for my NBL plays. Most of the other posters on this forum will agree. Good luck tonight.

[WalkingLuckCharm]

Good calls on tonight's leans. It was a good night for the road teams

[That Guy]

Sprinkled some money on the Blaze over.. nice call
Cheers for the NBL tips

WNBL (Aussie Women's Basketball)
ADELAIDE LINK LIGHTNING vs BULLEEN BOOMERS
Game Total UNDER 148.5 @1.90

I've been following the WNBL & making a few plays along the way. It's a great league loaded with talented players who put the NBL to shame.

This is a tough number as it could go either way by a a few points. It should be an intense semi final and I'm rolling with the under. Adelaide should take this one as well, not sure they'll cover the -7.

Back on track after a tough couple of weeks in the NBL. 3 interesting games today. Looking forward to Shane Heal's debut coaching Sydney vs the Townsville Crocs. Maybe they won't lose by 20 points this week.

Updated record: 28-28-1 50%*
