Watch them win by 14. lol.

thats one of the worst meltdowns i have ever seen. i guess clipps cant look at those blue shirts and not choke

we will get the bulls tomorrow

I took OKC +3300 live when they were down 7 with 2 minutes and change to go. FML. Woulda won everything back and some from these first 3 days.

At least I got a few bucks back live with the +8 2H. Still haven't won a pre-game bet this year though smh.

Today: 0-3, -1.85x
Total: 0-6, -5.08x

Cavs+4 -103 (pinnacle) (risking 3.8x to win 3.69x)

I can't put that much on it with Cleveland losing today. Who knows, maybe I can get a middle. Basically risking 5 units to win 4.1 here.

Seto · 10-31-14, 08:29 PM

Cavs brought it tonight. Game is gonna be a grind. May hedge a bit more if I can get a good line.

will start watching now, but before tip off, i could see Bulls winning, but not covering the 4/4.5

Seto · 10-31-14, 08:48 PM

Not quite sure what Thibs is thinking there with Brooks, McDermott and Snell in the game at the same time. Obviously Cavs were gonna make a run with 3 bums like that in there.

Seto · 10-31-14, 08:51 PM

Fukking idiot Thibs. Guy just blew the game.

KRIT · 10-31-14, 08:54 PM

Ugh I took Bulls too. To be completely honest, I was more fading Cle early in the year. I'll give Blatt and Cavs credit, they are playing very well for a new team playing its second game.

I wouldn't say they're playing very well but they're playing hard and LeBron has bounced back which helps.

Bulls on the other hand look really bad outside of great start by Rose.

I felt like Chicago would at least take the lead once which would give me the opportunity to buy out. Been waiting since midway through the second. Maybe it will happen now.

Is just me, or Brooks looks like Nate Robinson, he is on fire from 3 point land.

They're hoping he's going to be their next Nate Robinson/DJ Augustin impact guy off the bench.

Taking the lead for like 20 seconds isn't enough time for me to hedge lol. Anyway it's getting late to do that. I'll probably just ride it out at this point and hope these fukkers come through for me.

The only good thing about the game being close is that I actually have a shot at that crazy middle.

Seto · 10-31-14, 09:12 PM

Bulls transition defense has been absolutely disgraceful so far.

NBA Maniac · 10-31-14, 09:22 PM

Lets Go Bulls !!!

Seto · 10-31-14, 09:32 PM

Smh we were nearly there. Gotta do it all over again now.

NBA Maniac · 10-31-14, 09:33 PM

Derrick Rose (ankle) questionable to return

Derrick Rose suffered a sprained left ankle on Friday and is questionable to return.

He looked like he had a minor ankle tweak earlier in the game, but he was able to play through it. This issue doesn't seem like a huge deal, but of course it will be heavily magnified because it's Derrick Rose. Stay tuned.

UAU LOL

Seto · 10-31-14, 09:38 PM

I really can't figure out the Bulls' defensive gameplan. They are having so many breakdowns.

Seto · 10-31-14, 09:50 PM

Coulda envisioned lots of things happening in this game but Tristan Thompson burying me wasn't one of them.

Bulls just flat out choked in regulation with really bad defensive plays. Sickening.

Oh well. Not a good start to the season kinda like 2 years ago. Hopefully it turns around similarly.

KRIT · 10-31-14, 09:52 PM

Frustrating game. Some bad calls down the stretch with a brutal bulls offense. Can't cap a DRose injury either. It was the Bulls from last year all over again.

Yeah around 3 minutes from the end of regulation 3 straight calls went Love's way against Dunleavy, 2 of them looked like bad ones to me. Looked like it wasn't going to matter when Hinrich made those 2 threes. Oh well.

When you have a team like the Bulls up 5 with 40 seconds to go you'd think it's in the bag but they had defensive breakdowns all night long and had 2 more there. Their transition defense was really shocking.

I honestly don't feel like I made that bad of a bet but shit happens.

Seto · 10-31-14, 09:58 PM

Today: 1-1, -5x
Total: 1-7, -10.08x

I had this game circled for a while. Obviously things changed once Cavs lost ysterday, but I guess I was stubborn and still went big on Bulls. Oh well, can't cap losing a 5 point lead with 40 seconds left. Can't cap DRose's ankle falling off (or can we now?), and can't cap Tristan Thompson grabbing 12 offensive rebounds.

Honestly I don't regret the bet. The Cavs loss yesterday made me buy back some but I felt comfortable with what I had. It just didn't win at the end of the day. All the things you stated obviously had something to do with it.

Time to look ahead now.

Mavs-1 -110 (bet365) (risking 2.75x to win 2.5x)

The Pelicans seem like the "sharp" play getting points at home as a team expected to take a jump this season. I feel like the Mavs are just better though. I rarely reason that way but I feel good about this game. Bound to get one right at some point.

Seto · 10-31-14, 11:31 PM

Hornets-2.5 -110 (paddy power) (risking 1.1x to win 1x)
Rockets-8 -110 (risking 1.1x to win 1x)

Seto · 11-01-14, 03:32 AM

Bucks+9.5 -119 (888sport) (risking 1.19x to win 1x)
Bucks ml +400 (betfair) (risking 0.25x to win 1x)

Pauulzcappin · 11-01-14, 07:57 AM

Eh, I kinda like the pelicans. Just looks like a game they pull through against a dallas team that isnt ready yet... Davis vs dirk is a very good matchup for them

also hornets look good, line is very telling
