        What's the payout? I don't think you should include spurs because the difference between them -3.5 and +1.5 isn't very big. most NBA games don't finish within 4 after all of the fouling and free throws are said and done. I'd substitute a team that's already getting or giving a lot more

          valid points. payout on a 5pt 5 game teaser was 4x... was gonna throw a few units on it, but just wanted experienced eyes to pt out something I may be overlooking.

            yeah I mean twoways is right in that 5 team 5 point teasers are definitely a losing long run proposition but my response was figuring you wanted to do one regardless. teasers can be useful once in a while for games that are more likely than others to finis in a certain range. i.e. a game that should go down to the wire where a team is getting 3-4 points to give them 8-9 or something like that

              Never tease around the zero.

                  so, hypothetically speaking, if I did decide to go with a teaser, this would be the safer play?
                  am going to follow Twoways advice, but, I ermmm... might just have to play this as my way of saying goodbye to teasers, lol.

                    unsure if i'll play the teaser, but will play straight up as twoways suggested when they release the ML's in the AM.

                      Love cleveland addition. OKC looks pretty safe. LAC as well. I think ATL and MIA are the mostly likely to penetrate this up for you. MIA is not really beating anyone by DD this year so why would they start with a hot GS. I think you should go the other way here.. GS +13.5. More likely it comes down to the wire than it is GS loses by 14+ IMO. A

                      As far as ATL, ORL has been hot and ATL can be iffy on the road sometimes. While I do think they'll win, there may be safer options.

                      You're the only one that admitted to tailing my bobcats play so I feel like I owe ya one!

                        LOL, thanks man, you're a good dude.
                        Was a little irked by that pick, but have no one to blame but myself really. It DID look good initially, then your saleman pitch put me onto it... dah well.

                        i dunno what you were thinking on the Raps pick tho, coming' from a tdot guy, they are shittin their bigboy pants hard this season.
