Royce White telling someone else they look shook? LMAO

Royce White, a d-leaguer, mouthing off to KD? LMAO.

That's probably the last thing the Rockets needed. Someone tweeting pissing off Durant.

Seriously, some of these fools need to have their Twitter accounts shut down. Forever.

Watch KD have like 28 at halftime and the Thunder be up double digits.

Moron. OKC is reeling, why try to get under Durant's skin.

Heater of the Century...

i see you now finally mixing up your plays (taking a very "public/square" play like indiana tonight) and its no coincidence that you've been doing this well. the "sharp" plays 90% of the time is not the way to go. glad to see you finally realized this.

Dexter · 05-03-13, 06:53 PM

my bad - public was on the pacers at 60%....but i have noticed other plays of yours recently being more public plays. you used to never take a team that was backed 60% or more by the public.

Speedy88 · 05-03-13, 06:58 PM

Royce White, what an idiot. All KD has say back is the word "Airplane" and Royce will start crying.

I'm not paying a whole lot of attention to it anymore to be honest, unless it's blatantly obvious (80% + percent on a play).

Dont get annoyed at me for mentioning this (and i would have PM'd you) but now that you're constantly posting your overall record, why before baseball started didnt you show 2012 bases?

you know me - im all about being transparent as i would show my threads up 80 or down 80u. before bases you used to post updates like the above but never show bases 2012. i had forgotten if you even had a thread in 2012 but you did.

i only ask b/c youre one of the few guys who i can measure myself versus (since you play the same sports and roughly same unit size)

dont take my post the wrong way....just really curious why you never used to post mlb.

BigDofBA · 05-03-13, 07:13 PM

So glad I laid off bases tonight. It would have been an ugly start.

Good luck in hoops.

Agreed. I stopped looking at public bet percentages a few months ago. Square plays win just as much as sharp plays. Just look at GS, they were square in almost every game of that series and they covered every game.

Nothing worse than taking an under and seeing 17 free throws and 14 fouls in the first eight-plus minutes.

Seto · 05-03-13, 09:10 PM

Are you watching this shit? Looks like the refs want to push this game over ASAP

No coincidences · 05-03-13, 09:14 PM

OKC live +170 (1U to win 1.7)

Can't pass on that.

No coincidences · 05-03-13, 09:26 PM

Unreal.

This game's going to be 120-115 with both teams shooting 100 free throws.

25 fouls and 31 free throws in 15 minutes.

That's Playoff basketball for you, bro. intensity and sense of urgency is high. hard to achieve/maintain regular season poise with such young guns in this marquee matchup.

31 free throw attempts in one half is "playoff basketball"?

i don't seem to follow your logic here. so playoff basketball does not usually have high amounts of foul calls? i mean, players will play...it is the refs that blow the whistle...

Not that many in one half.

Please cite the last time a team shot 31 free throws in a half during a playoff game. I'll wait.

Have a weird feeling the Clippers aren't done yet.

LAC +8.5 live (1.1U to win 1)
LAC +770 live (.2U to win 1.54)

No coincidences · 05-03-13, 11:15 PM

Or, maybe not.

amrit · 05-03-13, 11:15 PM

In other threads you mean? Like earlier in the season? Or you want me to post my 2012 baseball record in with this year's record? I guess I'm not following. If that were the case, do you want me to post NFL, CFL, NBA, CBB, etc. from the year before with it? I'm just posting my most recent season records together.

2-3, +1.1U tonight
239-259, +20.4U thread

Like the depleted Bulls +7.5 tonight, but I think I'm going to pass.

Good luck everyone.

I think passing on the Bulls is a good idea.

I haven't seen one person on the nets and if Hinrich and Deng are out, how are they going to score?

Everyone likes the Bulls, myself included. It's probably just best to pass all together.

Agreed. Everyone and their mama is on Chicago. I'm playing Chicago 1H and going from there. I just think they keep it close early.

amrit · 05-04-13, 04:57 PM

Have any you guys bet Memphis -125 for the series?

amrit · 05-04-13, 05:01 PM

Memphis at -130 now, OKC +110

I don't know what to think about that series personally.

I know one thing: I love Golden State, but betting them vs. SA is wasted money.

Also think the Knicks take care of the Pacers.

LOL at the Nets.

Winners win, losers lose.

Nets are losers.

Nets are such losers. Could you find two bigger losers on one team than DWill and Joe Johnson? You could probably add Brook Lopez to that group. A 7 footer who can't even average 7 rebounds a game.

Nets just look like they are playing a regular season game. What a pathetic bunch, these losers don't even deserve to make the 2nd round.

Exactly.

Joe Johnson is the epitome. He's the Josh Smith of the north.
