    Do work is my motto and work is what i do
    So, 6-0 last 3 night. I'm still sticking with my strategy of betting less games for more money. It's not really a strategy anymore, it's more like the way you should gamble. I used to pick about 6 + games a night. And, on Saturday's, I went crazy betting like 15+ NCAA games. Not good. That's a great way to lose all your money.

    Been back at it though with a nice NBA streak of 6 games and looking forward to tonight's card. I like a lot of games, but you can't bet them all. I will be playing no more than 4 games tonight. I usually am not a write up guy, but I will start doing that.

    My write up's are strictly my opinions on games. I'm not a fancy stat guy, I think that hurts me in the long run b/c I think too much. I'm more of a last few games guy and just knowledge guy. It's been working for me, so I'll stick to it.

    Boston -12. Boston is the best team in the NBA right now. They are just out to prove something every game. THey showed a lot of heart and determination last game at Atlanta winning by 3 after being down most of the game. As KG says, "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLEEEEEEEE" They are proving that this year starting off better than they did last year.
    Chicago is coming off 2 straight OT games going 1-1 in those games. They will probably be very tired having to travel during their off day. Boston is sick at home, Chicago not so good away and will be tired. Boston Rock's and Roll's by the Bulls tonight.

    NYKnicks -3 Smallest Play of the Night for sure. I am a Knicks fan, so I may be a bit bias on this. I've watched every game this year for the Knicks and they aren't that bad. The problem with the Knicks is that if they don't shoot the ball well, they lose. I know that's the same for every team, but may be even more for the Knicks. They shot 13-31 from the 3 point line against the Lakers on Tuesday Night which helped get them a 15 point lead at half, but then they blew it and lost by 2. They can very well at times proving that against the Lakers and also earlier this year by scoring 137 points. They can also suck big time as we all know.
    So, like I said, I may be bias picking the Knicks, but they are playing pretty well and play well at home. The Bucks always have a chance w/ Redd, but I do see the Knicks winning. But, "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLEEEEE" With the Knicks.

    Toronto -6.5 OK City is the worst team in the NBA. I believe that many college scholls could beat OK or at least keep it close. Toronto is def. not playing up to their expectations this year, but they have been playing decent as of late. I've been going against OK City the past few weeks and it's done me pretty good.
    Another smaller play on this one, but I do see Toronto winning.

    Cleveland PK Get this one early. Cleveland will be a favorite at the end which I believe they should be. Other than Boston, Cleveland is the next best team. Still undefeated at home, but that means nothing as they are away tonight. They are still playing the best basketball we've seen out of the Cavs in a while and until someone stops Lebron James and the Cavs, I'll keep betting them esp. when it's an easy bet such as a Pick Em rather than their usual 10 point spreads at home which sometimes can give us a scare.


    So 4 games tonight. No NCAA.
    2 plays w/ Boston and Cavs
    2 smaller plays w/ Knicks and Toronto.

    Good Luck tonight and as always

          As always great job and keep up the good work! No explanations what you do needed for me. Way, way, before your time but first got into bball loving the Knicks with Clyde Frazier, W. Reed, DeBusschere, Bradley, Barnett, and Phil "Action" Jackson on the team. Ashamed Jordan was around or they might have won a championship when Ewing was there? DO WORK!!! and go out have yourself a great day!

                Haha, I hear you man, same thing for me lately. I would go through the week betting 7-9 games a day NHL/NBA even on slow days. And on weekends when I'm up big I'd screw myself over and lose all my week's profits. Enough of that. Finally learned my lesson as well. The future is bright

                  Indiana vs LA. Clippers

                  Sam,

                  What do you think of this game.. the line is VERY fishy Indiana is only -2.5.. I dont see how Pacers woudlnt be able to cover this game... Clippers will be a little tired playing the OT game the other day plus its thier 3rd straight road game.. sure they are playing good though... Indiana is too up and down i guess thats why the line is so low.. you think Indiana is too risky at -2.5?

                    This is one of those that I like, but won't bet. I don't want to bet every game that I like, so I will not bet it. This is part of my new betting strategy of not betting everything I like. I do like Indiana, they play very tough against great teams, and weak against weak teams. I think people are too much on the Clippers. They aren't good. They beat OK City this week and lost in OT to Chicago. They could have beatan the Bulls, but even then, they still suck.

                    I do like Indiana, but will stay away.

                            I don't do exotics anymore. I used to do that last month and got killed w/ 2nd half bets and dumb stuff. I stick with what I know and not try to force a bet. I don't bet over/unders and I no longer bet 1st half/2nd halfs or quarter bets, just straight up bets for the game. I stick w/ that and it does me good.

                              Raps fan just commenting on your pick-

                              The books have it well. OKC has been known to play the raptors well! Especially at home! Things in the raptors camp aren't very good right now...Bosh was booed at home during their last game after a 12 point showing. They're going to come into this game knowing that they need to kick OKC's ass. but -6.5 is a tough call...

                              The bottom line is, the raptors haven't been playing for the full 48 minutes for a long time. Bosh is coming off an awful showing. OKC will play well tonight. Like you said i would keep it small!

                                Interesting....I'm 7-10 on 1st Q since last friday, but 3-6 on games. I'm flying out of state in an hour so I feel kind of rushed to get one or two plays in, since the board looks so nice tonight. I should probably just back off today or just make 1 1U play or something simple.

                                    I don't mind you playing Detroit. My only problem is you saying you're a big Cavs fan. I'm a big Knicks fan, but if I'm not betting the Knicks, I will not bet the game. I don't bet the Knicks unless I think they will cover either way. I never bet against them.

                                    Tonight, you will be rooting for your team to lose. Then, if they win, you'll be mad b/c you lost your bet. It's a lose/lose or a lose/win. Don't like it.

                                      chosen-

                                      i'm big on choosing denver tonight as well. Not only what you said, but they tend to play very well on Friday nights. And like you said..they have motivation in more than one way. Mello will want to shut down Lebron. Z and boobie are out. Billups is playing the team that knocked them out of the playoffs a season back..cept now he's playing in his home state where he grew up and has proven he's extremely comfortable handling this season.

                                          Much better, Sam. It looks like you listened to my advice after our little talk.

                                          The write up is an art that will actually help you to make more sense of your play even to yourself. Not only are you writing a short essay, but at the same time you are doing research while you write it. Think of it as a book report. Have fun with it. Put some of your personality into it. I am glad that you are giving more, kid. Keep on giving the people what they need to hear. They are thirsty for knowledgeable sound picks. All that they needed from you was a little more meat on the bone. Looks like you are headed in the right direction now.

                                          Always maintain a level of class, and if you win or lose never let it sway you one way or the other. I liken it to being a cornerback. You have to have a short memory and think only about the next play. Keep on keepin' on! As always good luck.

                                          Remember, this is your craft, baby. Do it man..

                                              The write up is an art that will actually help you to make more sense of your play even to yourself. Not only are you writing a short essay, but at the same time you are doing research while you write it. Think of it as a book report. Have fun with it. Put some of your personality into it. I am glad that you are giving more, kid. Keep on giving the people what they need to hear. They are thirsty for knowledgeable sound picks. All that they needed from you was a little more meat on the bone. Looks like you are headed in the right direction now.

                                              Always maintain a level of class, and if you win or lose never let it sway you one way or the other. I liken it to being a cornerback. You have to have a short memory and think only about the next play. Keep on keepin' on! As always good luck.

                                                    Maybe it would be best if you were to start your own threads...

                                                        Sam, you will always have people who are jealous of the work your producing? Clueless people! Just want to know about the Sixers? Hometown team, like you will only bet with your team, never against them?

                                                        Favored by 1 over Wizards. Without Brand team played real well last year with up tempo style! Haven't adjusted well with him yet! Wizards might not have Jamison? and don't seem too good?

                                                        I know its not one of your games so if you don't reply no problem. Thanks and DO WORK!!!
