    Basketball Parlay of the Day Contest - Saturday, 11/08/08
    Starting Saturday (November 1), we will start a November Hoops Parlay Contest with a grand prize of a $200 cash account at BetPhoenix, 3 time roll-over. Second Place will be a $50 account and last place will receive a $25 BetPhoenix account with a 3 time roll over. If there is a tie for last place in both units and game-by-game record (15 parlay minimum), the last place prize will be divided equaly.

    *IMPORTANT*
    All players must have an account at BetPhoenix to be prize eligible Sign up here

    To be eligible to win prizes, all players must PM their BetPhoenix account ID to SBRforum Staff NO LATER than 6:00pm ET on Wednesday, November 5!


    1. Check in the NBA BASKETBALL HANDICAPPING FORUM each day for the daily thread to be posted by LT Profits. Lines will be posted by 1:00 p.m. (ET) each day. Plays may be posted before that, but the official posted lines will be used for grading.

    2. Posted spreads and totals are the only eligible plays for grading, no Money Lines or Halves allowed. NBA and NCAA Men's Colege Basketball will be included.

    3. Two-game parlay picks, laying 10 to win 26. Post entire parlay at same time, no open parlays.

    4. Here’s the catch: Your play must include a write-up! The write-up does not have to be long, just a sentence or two about why you are making your play. If need be, please refer to prior month's contests for examples.

    5. Entries that are past-post or do not have analysis for both games will be NO ACTION. Once your two-team parlay has been posted, you CANNOT change either play. Any edited post will count as a *-LOSS! If you make a mistake (such as leaving out "Over" or "Under" or not clearly stating your selection), need to add analysis or wish to enter corrected lines, do so in a separate post. This holds true even if the first game on the schedule did not tip off yet. It also holds true for past-posts and entries with no analysis. It does NOT hold true for posts that are not parlay selections, i.e. standings, commentary posts or congratulatory posts. Any player with two edit violations during the course of the contest shall be ELIMINATED FROM PRIZE ELIGIBILITY.

    *-EXCEPTION: If someone edits a post on the last day of the competition in an attempt to get an automatic loss in order to win the Last Place prize, then the player will be credited with a WIN.

    6. And here’s the fine print:

    • Must be 18 years of age or older to participate.
    • One entry per household and IP address.
    • Must use lines posted in daily thread by LT Profits
    • Maximum one parlay pick per day, minimum 15 parlay plays required to be eligible for monthly prize.
    • Tiebreaker for prizes - Win % of individual parlay legs. If still tied, combatants will carry on a head-to-head parlay match until winner determined.
    • All decisions made by SBR with regards to this contest are final.
    • SBR employees eligible to participate but are not eligible to win the monthly prize.

      Not part of the contest:

      Nets +250
      Heat +425

      * The Nets are on a high.
      * The Hornets still have more games to lose before waking up.

        Wash + the # : Orl. can't possibly keep up the hot outside shooting.

        N.O. - the points : Hornets rebound after tough loss, plus they got inside presence and can play D

          Cavs: I think game will be a bit closer than the other day when in Cleveland! But there isnt a single sole on the Bulls who can stop number 23!

          Miami: both teams played last night, and I know N.O is the better team. But I think its to many pts to lay to a team like Miami the way they are playing right now!

                  701 orlando-washington over 198.5. both teams like to push it up, should go over.
                  709 milwaukee-phoenix over 197.5. phpenix might be tired but still like the over here considering how both teams play.

                    Heat +9.5 - They played great yesterday looking for another great game from them..

                    Cavs -1.5 - Cavs should take this game pretty easy.. Both teams played good games yesterday but Cavs have James and that will win this game for them. .

                      NETS/PACERS UNDER 200: This is strictly a numbers play, as Indiana’s home games have averaged a combined 195.0 points and the Nets’ only road game saw just 180 points scored.

                      TIMBERWOLVES +8: This line seems inflated by the fact that the Blazers looked so good on national television in their last game. Portland is 2-0 at home, but those wins were by a combined three points.

                        i think bulls are a very solid home team and i think wolves arent very good but portland wont be blowing htem out. twolves match up well down low and outside , very similar teams in portland and minne

                              708 Chicago Bulls +1½. I heard Lebron is taking the night off so to speak.
                              710 Milwaukee Bucks +5½. Bucks had the Celtics on the ropes last night, they go for the knockout tonight.

                                Suns ov 197.5 The Bucks like to push as well, the Suns had a day off after beating up on Chicago, Michael Redd, Richard Jefferson, Bogut, and Villanueva will love the open looks and free reign to the basket.

                                New Jersey o 200 Too questionable teams usually make for poor defensive outings, T.J. Ford and Devin Harris are both quick point guards who would rather play uptempo, the only thing working against this game going over is the fact that both teams played last night, but I dont think that will hurt the offense, it will just be a better reason to not get back and play good defense.

                                  Nets/Pacers Under 200 - Avoided taking the Nets under last night because I had no idea how Detroit would look with AI. Back on the under train tonight.

                                  Hornets -9.5 - Two teams that haven't been playing like their true selves the past two games. Hornets are way better.

                                    Orlando Magic -9½:the wizards suck the line shoud be at least -14 so this should be an easy cover for the magic.

                                    Portland Trailblazers -8 :Portland always dominates the t-wolves when they play, and I dont see any reason why it would be different tonight, plus the t-wolves played last night.

                                        702 Orlando Magic -9½ (Washington is terrible.Orlando should keep winning at home)


                                        712 Portland Trailblazers -8 (Portlands coming off a huge win at home against Houston.Minnesota got beat up last night.Portlands the play)

                                          Miami/NOH over 191.5 - I think this will be a medium paced game and both offenses are strong, so I think this gets over the number

                                          Minn/Port under 192.5 - Although neither D strikes fear in anyone, I think this game is on the slow side and stays under the number

                                            Nets +7: The nets are a better team than the Pacers and are coming off a huge win vs the Pistons

                                            Suns -5.5: Suns bounce back as Shaq will be fresh after not playing last game

                                              Changed my parlay with Devin Harris out for the Nets and have added the Twolves +8 instead. This is too many pts given for two teams that match up well with each other.

                                                LT Profits, im not sure if i'd be up by the time you post your thread and lines tomorrow, so i was wondering if i could post it here now and perhaps you'd be kind enough to consider this as my parlay entry. thanks in advance!

                                                Raptors -3
                                                coming off two losses and a tough game ahead against boston, i expect raptors to come out and play on this game! dd win!

                                                Hawks -5
                                                unbeaten (4-0) hawks' josh smith is out but i dont think that will make that much difference against this lowly durantula-led thunder team!

                                                    I'll let it go this time only, but next time start a new thread using my exact title wording, changing the day/date.
