I'm contemplating hammering down on OKC at 4.5. Only thing that has me a little hesitant is the line movement and no Steven Adams, which means more Kendrick Perkins. This looks like one of those games where the opening line is more indicative than the closing line.Comment -
What I find more amazing is that a couple of posters (or one guy with 2 accounts depending on how you see it) keep on posting in here even though I'm not replying to them or even reading their posts. It must be hard to be that lonely and desperate for attention. Poor guy.Originally posted by Vinnie PazComment -
I feel like OKC is the right play but between the history of those OKC/Memphis games and the fact that I really think Memphis is possibly the best team in the league I don't feel like betting that game.Originally posted by KRITComment -
Pelicans ml +105 (paddy power) (risking 1x to win 1.05x)

Dallas pulling a total brainfreeze on me. This is just brilliant.
Utah has made so many fluky shot-clock buzzer shots it's unbelievable.
To be fair I did get lucky in the Kings game.Comment -
Was about to murder someone if the refs hadn't called that foul. JJ don't fukk me here.Comment -
Thank goodness for that.
Last week Utah would've hit a halfcourt heave at the buzzer to fukk me or something. It's nice to know I can win a close game or two once in a while.
Need my nemesis to beat my other nemesis for a winning night now. Go Clips.Comment -
I liked Utah (+5)
once again, line sharp as hell lolComment -
I almost took Utah live twice to go for a middle in the 4th. Once at +9.5 and once at +6.5. Would've middledOriginally posted by NBA Maniac
Ellis needs to stop playing hurt. Dude is useless when he plays hurt. Still remember a game in Memphis earlier this year, a game in Denver... I get that it's become a prideful thing for him that he's played in 5 million consecutive games or whatever but take a step back and get yourself right. At least he has a chance to do that now with the break.
Well useless is a stretch he had 7 steals and hit 4 big foul shots and without Rondo they were already shorthanded in the backcourt so I get why he played to be fair. But he did play awful for the most part.Comment -
This might actually be one of the worst NBA games I've ever watched. All Star break can't come soon enough for these guys it looks like.Comment -

Pretty good day in the end.
I took a shot on the Kings ml thing and it didn't work, I don't regret it, I really had a feeling they'd pull it out and was getting great odds. I didn't want to play the spread at all as I very much felt this was one of those "outright win or blowout" games, but I thought I'd just give it 1 unit and really should've been punished for that, I got lucky.Comment -
I'd be shocked if they didn't win that game. I actually expect them to win going away.Originally posted by NBA Maniac
It's a bit annoying they might not have Butler, that would be the second time he misses out on a game vs the Cavs. I really hope it's not the same bullshit as in that game where they blew a 5 point lead with 40 seconds to go.Comment -
Bulls+1.5 -110 (paddy power) (risking 2.75x to win 2.5x)
Bulls+1 -110 (bet365) (risking 8.25x to win 7.5x)
Bulls-6 +230 (bet365) (risking 2x to win 4.6x)
Bulls-10.5 +450 (paddy power) (risking 0.5x to win 2.25x)
I hesitated a bit about playing this game this big since if I lose it will piss me off a lot during the whole week off. But I can't play a game for less than what I like it for so here it is. If it loses it loses, I've dealt with worse.Comment -
BOL Seto...I might take Bulls also!Comment -
Line movement is partly due to Butler (I booked immediately cause if he was in it woulda moved the other way and I didn't want to play em as a fave) but it's excessive to me.
I don't buy it at all. Cleveland being such a big fave (being a fave at all really) is ridiculous. It reminds me of the Spurs/Bulls game 2-3 weeks ago when the Spurs were 6 point faves for some mysterious reason.
I still expect this to be a 15-20 point Chicago win. I'm fine with them winning by 1 though.Comment -

Love isn't playing
Here comes the Tristan Thompson 10 offensive rebound game again like in the earlier meeting
Comment -
Yeah not sure how I feel about Love not playing. I think either way it will be the same result....hopefully a Bulls cover.Originally posted by SetoLove isn't playing Here comes the Tristan Thompson 10 offensive rebound game again like in the earlier meeting Comment -

This game is so fukking frustrating. Every time they get it to 14 or 15 some shit happens like a foul on a 3, a 3 that gets a ridiculously lucky roll.... This shit should be over by now and it's probably gonna get close now.Comment -
Cleveland still hanging around...Originally posted by Seto
4th qrt will be interesting.Comment -
Not sure honestly. I don't think it makes that much of a difference here. They just need to shut the door and stop letting this Cavs team hang around.Originally posted by fitguy67short answer dept: net effect of whatever surprises have happened since bets placed=net positive/neutral/negative for cashing our tickets?

thinking the same thing - that 6/7 free throw stretch being one exampleOriginally posted by SetoComment -
They had 2 straight loose ball fouls 70 feet from the basket with the Cavs in the bonus. That's just bad basketball.Originally posted by mlb
Looks like LeBron wants to play 40 mins or whatever today, he's hardly gonna sit at all this half. So much for limiting his minutes going forward.Comment -
Fukkers keep missing free throws

Nice first half (+) of the season bro.Comment -
We should be good here. Had an extra big bet on Chi thanks to this promo from my book.
You gonna bet any of the all-star stuff? I've never been that into the all-star stuff, but have you seen this years 3pt contest? Best ever?Comment -

Still trying to understand what the books were playing at putting the better team at home as a dog lol.
Great comeback the last 6 days. Up just a tad under 4 grand total including my live plays, up 29 units in here. Much more than I'd set myself as a goal, that "short term goals" thing always works
Always nice to head into the break in a good mood.
Comment -
Thanks pal. It's been up and down but all things considered, I'm not that unhappy. Still looking to get back near that season high mark, and especially have a good playoffs this year. Really pumped for that this year, I guess I am every year but it's crazy how open both conferences are.Originally posted by t-wizzle
Nice first half (+) of the season bro.Comment -
excellent finish to the first half manComment -
Ha I only ever bet on it for fun, I usually have a bet or two every year. I actually thought that Friday Night thing might have value, the Team World was at +205 or so against the US, gotta think they'll take the game more seriously than the Americans. It's down to +150 now though so idk. I mean honestly if I bet anything it'll likely be for 10 bucks or something or maybe for betpoints if they put props up in the book.Originally posted by KRITComment
