On the Bucks as well

Yes I was a little confused as well, but Bogut being out doesn't mean anything except we get the line at 2 instead of 5, Kings are dead tired, overtime game, then up and down game against Magic, and thentriple OT game. DO you know how many jump shots they took in those games. They will have no legs and won't get back on D not that they every do. But the tired legs will also lower their shooting percentage.

bogut is out? with back spasm?

MicGan · 01-16-09, 12:59 PM

Seems everyone like Bucks here ..... the line is at even right now! 5dime/Betus. 69% favor Bucks.... hmmm.....

Maybe I should follow the line ... go with Sac

I may have to hit the Hornets ML.......the line movement is absurd!

Hey strict, did you see my 4-teamer last night?

I certainly did, very nice sir, that was a good play, even though I hate Parlays, stop doing them. If you like doing parlays just start doing if win bets. you basically risk the same and will win more. 4 team parlay 10 wins 100 right. Lets take a look at if win with double up each time. Bet 1 10 if win Bet 2 20 if win Bet 3 40 if win Bet 4 80, so you would win 150 if you hit all 4, you risk 11 on first bet 12 if you make it to 2 14 if you make it to 3 and 18 if you make it to 4. If you prefer to just risk the 10 that would be involved it would look like this.

Bet 1 9 if win Original Risking 9.90
Bet 2 18 if win Part 2 Risking 19.80 but your up 9 so really only 10.80
Bet 3 34 if win Part 3 Risking 37.40 but your up 27 so really only 10.40
Bet 4 60 Part 4 Risking 66 but your up 61 so really only 5
Total 111
As you can see you will make an extra 11 dollars for hitting all 4 while basically risking the same 10 that you put on the parlay and risking significantly less on last bet, so that if it loses, you have only lost half the 10 and can do it all over again.

I've done IF bets before in college football........they are nice for a lot of plays and low risk. I won't do another parlay for a long time. I just hit that "one out of hundred" saying. Back to capping NBA with straight plays. I look forward to sharing picks with ya strictly!

You to man, lets get this money, if I catch you doing another parlay, not even the glove don't fit you must acquit defense will save you.

lone, i don't make it a habit to be on the other side of strictly, as he is one of the best cappers on this site, just like the fact that Lakers lost that heartbreaker to the Spurs and Orlando will be playing its 3 straight on the road and on the west coast, we will see what happens but I like Kobe to light up the Magic as due to injury, they don't have a matchup for Kobe.
