Screw it, one more try!

[kroyrunner89]

I'm not even going to waste my time typing up what useless change I'm making to my system this time! All picks, no bs, one week. If I'm not above 60% by 12:00 am CT 3/20/09 I'm done wasting my time with NBA. I don't even enjoy it that much, but hell I have 6 months to kill til the next NFL season. If I'm not winning, I hope you guys at least are. Here we go:

March 12, 2009
Phoenix +4.5

[kroyrunner89]

March 12, 2009
Phoenix +4.5 Loss

Rough start, but the crystal ball tells me I'll be bringing home a 9-3 or 10-3 finish to the week. Turning things around tomorrow, I'll have some plays up shortly

[kroyrunner89]

Atlanta -5.5
Charlotte +1
Milwaukee +3.5
Philadelphia -3.5
Portland -6.5

Record: 0-1

That's all I've got, time to sit back and watch what happens.

[W0lfy]

I went with Houston earlier in the day and got them at +1. Not too confident in the play, but I don't feel there is any answer for Yao on the Bobcats roster. Okafor is too small and Diop has no offense when he comes in. Both teams are going to play with urgency though. The Bobcats batting for the 8th spot and the Rockets trying to stay on top of the west. It should be a good close game, GL!

[kroyrunner89]

alright my plays are updated and locked in, good luck tonight guys

[kroyrunner89]

Atlanta -5.5 Win
Charlotte +1 Loss
Milwaukee +3.5 Loss
Philadelphia -3.5 Loss
Portland -6.5 Win

Things are going as usual I see... 5 more days to turn this around. So far tomorrow:

Miami PK
Houston -2
Minnesota +4
Phoenix -8
Chicago +2

We'll see if I have another play when the last line comes out tomorrow, until then!

Record: 2-4

gl on miami !

[Vincepcion]

I'm with you on Miami but on the other side of the other 2 you posted
GL

why twolves?

they dont have their best player.... we all know that, but playing with a depleted roster. And pls. they dont have a coach. mchale is a great player in his era. PERIOD. no more, no less.

dont pick a crappy team if you want to improve your record. just an opinion. you might be seeing something that i dont.

on my point of view, how will miller score with wallace on him. love with okafor or diaw at the paint?

whats the record of minny after all star? +4 can help or it wont be enough.

good luck

[King_Bookie]

Oh no! I'm with you on houston (Still deciding on Uta @ Mia) but minnesota looks like a bad pick. injured roster against a very healthy team, playoff contender against a team who kicked the bucket.

GL on your plays tho even though we differ

[MrMonkey]

Hang in there buddy! Guys seem to be having a tough go of it this year!
Hopefully this is a down year! Good luck today!

well i went ahead and added a couple of plays. i'm basically just blindly following my system at this point and hoping it turns itself around. it had 4 weeks of spectacular data and then right when i started doing this it struggles of course, i don't get it. i'm probably going to have to start filtering these plays cause you're right i'd probably be leaving out minnesota and i'd probably keep chicago out of it too. idk, i've never paid an ounce of attention to NBA before this year i really hate the sport to be honest its one of the worst pro sports out there and the refs are consistently bad. learning experience, hopefully next year should i choose to do this again i'll have a little more wisdom

[kroyrunner89]

Miami PK Win
Houston -2 Loss
Minnesota +4 Win
Phoenix -8 Win
Chicago +2 Win

much better day, good to see the system showing some signs of life. i'll try to get tomorrow's plays up soon, hopefully we have a repeat performance of today.

Record: 6-5

KROY,

I F###ed big time. you are right to fade bobcats. i messed up on utah also.
and also chickened out on SAn, go figure.

messed up the whole week. need to regroup and focus on to the next.

stick to your system and analyze a bit before posting. if you feel it make sense, then go ahead and manage your green. you'll get the groove back. but you are correct on the refs, this season is one of the worst. they make consistent bad calls on superstars, and then some more this season. thats the difference and its a big factor which affects the outcome of the games. to many indecisiveness also for the refs, they dont know what to call, a lot of noncalls, and the farther ref will make the call. So stupid!!!!

But its still my fav sport.... dont comment on that...... refs ruin the games

[MrMonkey]

Good job today Kroy, blindly sticking to your system might be the way to keep doing it and see how it works out! Not much of a NBA man myself but if this comes around like football you know I'll be there!

[kroyrunner89]

i just understand nfl so much better than nba, that's probably why nfl does so much better because i can spot the system picks that don't make sense. anyways, i'll start putting picks i think make sense and that i like in bold, and track that record seperately and see if i can hit at a higher % when its a personal play as well. not many lines up yet, one for tomorrow so far. i'll add more tomorrow morning shortly before the first game tips off.

Sunday March 15, 2009
Bucks +6.5
Warriors -1.5
Lakers -8.5
Magic -5.5
Washington -2

Record: 6-5
Personal: 0-0

[kroyrunner89]

alright i've got all of my plays locked in now, the only one i can find a problem with is washington -2, and that's mostly because i hate betting games between two bad teams, you never know what to expect. hopefully we have another good day

[kroyrunner89]

Sunday March 15, 2009
Bucks +6.5 Win
Warriors -1.5 Loss
Lakers -8.5 Loss
Magic -5.5 Win
Washington -2 Push

Record: 8-7-1
Personal: 2-2

[kroyrunner89]

considering i've had one winning day so far i'm surprised i'm above 50%. i think the system is just going through one of its cold streaks right now, hopefully it snaps out of it soon. only one for tomorrow so far, only one more line to come out too so we'll have a max of 2 plays unless there's some significant line movement.

Monday March 16, 2009
Hornets -3 (B .5)
Denver -13

Record: 8-7-1
Personal: 2-2

[danrman]

play ok city tomorrow friend

[kroyrunner89]

i'm adding denver because my system identified the nets as a "trap play", which usually is a pretty good sign that betting the other side will result in profit. i'm not making it a personal play, but i'll add it to system play cuz i'm interested to see what it does

[kroyrunner89]

Monday March 16, 2009
Hornets -3 (B .5) Loss
Denver -13 Win

Wow can't seem to get my feet under me here, the system is on a bit of a cold streak it looks like. I knew I was in trouble when I saw the Hornets matchup on streak for cash. Tomorrow only one line stands out so far, I'm sure I'll be adding more plays tomorrow though.

Tuesday March 17, 2009
Cavs -6
Bulls +1.5
Lakers -9 (-120)
Clippers +3

Record: 9-8-1
Personal: 2-3
