    Avenger's 2011-2012 NBA Thread

    I'll consolidate all my picks in here.

    So far on posted plays:
    3-2
    .06 Units

    For Saturday 1/21:
    Houston (home) v spurs -2 1/2 for 1 unit
    Utah Jazz (home) v. Timberwolves -7 for 2 units

    I'm not always going to post writeups. But for tomorrow, the reason is easy, it's a let-down spot for both teams. I don't like the Jazz -7, spread is too much, I might do 1 unit on spread and 2 units on ML. I'll confirm later.

    I like Miami 1H -4 for 2 units.

    And I'm adding Houston Rockets (-4.5) in a teaser with the 49ers for 1 unit.

    If I hit the two early games, I think I'll lay off the Jazz or reduce it to a 1 unit play.

    *cricket*

    It sure is quiet in here. Oh well, that's the way I like it.

    Ok, I'm not a professional poster, I'm watching line movements and game-time decisions 15 mins before the game, I don't have time to "oh shit, I forgot to post on SBR!" So sue me, but my posted plays are not exactly the ones I play with $$$.

    That being said, it was a good night. I'm going to count the Jazz game as 1 unit win but I didn't play it.

    Pending Teaser: houston +0.5 (win) and 49ers +1 play 1 unit win 1 unit PENDING (I didn't play this teaser irl, I parlayed the Rockets ML and the 49ers ML, but just for the record Nazi's, I'm going to count this play.)

    tonight: 4-0, +3.6 units
    2012 NBA Season: 7-2, 4.2 units

    Tomorrow
    Only game I like tomorrow is the Clippers (- points) v. Raptors (as long as it's 5-7 pt spread). If not, I might tease/parlay the Clippers with the 49ers, I wouldn't take Clippers if they have to cover more than 10 pts.

    Heavy Lean: Ravens and 49ers HOWEVER I have a Giants to win the Division bet, at 10 to pay 120, so I'm hedging that bet .

    I do think the 49ers will beat the Giants SU because of Eli's health and the EC to WC travel. I don't think they'll have enough time to prepare. Both are very equal teams, Giants slight edge offense, 49ers slight edge defense but with Eli playing superman last week, Giants look better on paper.
    However, Eli was confirmed sick this week, I don't think we'll see Superman, we'll see Clark Kent.

    Ravens is my other heavy lean, no $$ since I got so much riding on the 49ers. No real writeup, this is a gut feel. If I tried to explain it, you'd think I was crazy, so...

    Let's get this!

    I wrote a separate thread for OVER 190 Bucks here

    But since I didn't post units, I won't count it in my season record.

    go for it! report back on how you do.
    how's that Lang fade working for ya?

    Go make fun of the schmucks who fade Lang and keep him in business. I despise Lang myself but it's hilarious to see people blindly fade him and get burned. Schmucks know less than him and they're blindly fading away.

    I'm not Lang but I knew that Michigan State was a good bet today.

    and I don't even follow CBB, but fading Siena at home is a bad bet even if it's against Iona.

    fading is an art... you can't blindly fade unless you have a million dollars and want to make $20.

    I'll tell ya when to fade me, I have my moments, then I blindly tail another poster. Superstitious? Yeah, fukk it, it works.

    Fading me the last month of NBA is a good proposition. Trust. But mid-season is where I kill it.

    Saturday 1/28: Kill the Squares Saturday

    4 pt Teaser: 76ers -8.5 v. Pistons and Lakers -1 v. Bucks for 2 units
    Rockets -7 v. Knicks 1 unit

    If my earlier bets hit, I'll post my two late leans.
    Let's home for a profitable weekend. I'm hoping for 4-0 because I know who I'm going to SMASH tomorrow morning.

    Call me tin foil hat nutcase, but tonight is a prime example why I don't post my plays.

    this is just me venting, if you don't want to read, skip to next post....

    I had a great night tonight, I went 6-1, I took 76ers 1H, 76ers game, 1H rockets, Rockets game, Suns, and Sac Kings. I knew Suns were going to win, but I got too scared, too much action on the ML. BUT I KNEW THEY WOULD WIN.

    I don't have a problem with my capping.

    THE ONLY BET THAT I LOST: Lakers -1 I teased with the UNDER 194.
    THE PICK THAT I POSTED ONLINE!!!

    This isn't the first time this happened, it happened twice in MLB, and I said, "fukk it, never posting my picks again."

    Anyways... I'll count my picks in my records, but I'm going to be more sporadic about posting my picks. Maybe I'll just post writeups, not picks and let everyone choose by themselves. Make everyone work for it.

    If I don't win tomorrow, this thread is dead. No point in tailing a losing gambler.

    1H Heat -2 1 unit.
