2015/16 NBA Thread

[Seto]

Still the best NBA Capper around I see.

You been hitting up Stamford Bridge much this season buddy? Can't imagine the atmosphere is great at this moment in time!

José has totally lost the plot. Great to see from a United point of view

Yeah man gotta stick around in the tough times. It hasn't been easy to go through but that's when you see who really loves our club

So I'm still going to Stoke on cold rainy Tuesday nights and shit. Wouldn't have it any other way

It is really sad that our season is all but a failure on November 8th though (considering for us, if we don't win the PL or UCL, our season is a failure, and while the 2012 squad is being brought up a lot this crop don't have the grit that team did. They'll probably fold at the first quality opponent.)

[Seto]

Good stuff Seto.
I couldn`t watch an NBA game if I had an alternate spread like you had last night.
First 1/2 had a shot, full game had a better (much) shot.
Would have been yelling at any play, shot or call that went against me.

Been hitting on some select 1st half dogs NYKs and LAL last night.
Seems some of the better teams are cruising a little first half, turning it up later.

Think Dallas might need to blow it up somehow. Kind of surprised they haven`t been able to get more/better free agents.
Great players owner, taxes great in Texas, Solid coach. Wonder if Jordan would have really made a difference?

Oh I can totally understand that nothing worse than watching garbage time with a decent amount of money at stake. I usually watch another game and then just flip it on for the last couple minutes or so. Plus which that particular game, I happened to be fading Dallas, I never watch the game when I fade them.

They have had swings and misses at tons of free agents, yeah. Playing with a 35-37 yo Dirk (especially now that he's won one) isn't that attractive to players unfortunately. They just choose better teams every time. This summer they were close but Jordan bitched out on them. If I'm being perfectly honest when I first found out they were chasing him I was like "fukk off this guy isn't worth the max", but little by little I got sold on the fact that while he perhaps wasn't, he was the only "big-name" free agent they could get and could lead to another in the next couple years. So I was definitely happy when I found out he gave the verbal agreement and bummed when he bitched out. Now at the end of the day he probably didn't make this time an instant contender but it would've possibly been a step in the rebuilding process. It could have turned into a bad contract though, who knows.

what do you see in Pacers +++ against Celtics , Seto ?

I considered it. But I just don't have enough of a feel for that game.

faded that game , now interested in Denver

Carter-Williams and Parker are both going to be out for the Bucks

what do you see in Denver ML ?

[Seto]

Really like Lakers here too

Love it.

On Lakers +8.5 big. Leggo.

Let's hope they show up today

I can't bet that game man. Honestly Denver might win but I can't lay 3.5 (or take the juiced ml which i never do) on a shitty team like that, especially since they've won a couple games lately.

seems like Denver ML or no play tonight for me . still thinking but mostly I will enjoy watching without $$ tonight

Thanks always for inputs , Seto . you are one of the best

[Seto]

So hard to make a decision on that Memphis game. On paper it seems like a must play at +7 but they look like a team that's gotten stagnant this year. Too many years of having the same core and not winning. Z-bo might be getting too old for his style of play and Gasol and Conley just don't seem right.

that kind of games at the current state of Memphis makes me stay away

[Seto]

Lol at the Lakers' last possession with the game on the line. Fukking nonsense.

[Seto]

And then Nick Vucevic of all people makes a fadeaway jumper from 22 feet for a buzzer beater win.

Of course.

[Seto]

And now the Knicks run an absolutely atrocious last play as well.

What do these coaches draw up during timeouts?

C.Anthony, chuck it up from the corner......
Its the same play I see @ the playground.

[Seto]

How do you get backdoored like that on a last play with 2 seconds to go?

Unreal nonsense on these 2 games late. Fukking ridiculous.

[Seto]

I have no problem with the Melo iso but get him attacking from a better spot on the floor.

[No coincidences]

Un. Fvcking. Real.

x 2

[DOM-Ganador]

Then a wave off by a 10th of a second. Wow.

[Seto]

Too slow of a release by Porzingis. Shame, cause it was a great shot.

Great tries on both, man. Good bets. Should've at least split.

[Seto]

Yeah the Knicks gave away 2 12-point leads as well. NBA is obviously a game of runs but having bet them the last 2 nights there are some pretty crazy runs in their games which can come back to haunt you.

At least I hit Knicks spread. But yeah obviously it's a very very frustrating night.

[Seto]

Today: 1-2, 0.00x
Total: 16-19, +19.71x

[Seto]

Fukk yeah Mavs. Kinda weird celebrating a November win but this one feels damn good.

Clippers

[Seto]

I like Miami tomorrow but Utah are an annoying team to fade as a dog, I feel like the spread could be decided by free throws or something.

[Don_Omarion]

at least it was 0 day .. wish you the best always IMO . Denver and Pacers made it tonight

[Seto]

Lean Knicks, Kings, Lakers, Pelicans, Grizzlies tomorrow. Any of the last 3 could easily lose by 20 and the Kings are the Kings though so I'm not quite sure I'll bet those games.

Really wanna believe the Mavs are gonna stick it to those fukktard Clippers too and they're getting 7 points but gotta stay poised and not bet with my heart. No good will come out of that. The Clippers could easily get up for this game in "us against the world" mode and make a statement.

4-1 ATS

[Don_Omarion]

Clippers tonight ?

[DOM-Ganador]

Clippers tonight ?

IDK man.They just played @ PHX as 8.5 faves, won by 6 ten days ago.
Line seems short. JJRed is probable, but everyone else good to go.

BTW, Suns haven`t beaten the Clips since 2013.

Why isn`t the line closer to 6????

[Seto]

Clippers tonight ?

I bet their games less and less for reasons you know if you've followed my threads . And if I ever do - fade with confidence.

But honestly I have no opinion on that game which is a good thing for me.

Great spot for Phoenix here. Clippers will be coming off a close win against rival Grizzlies and a game against Dallas Mavericks (off-season fiasco) and then playing a b2b and 3rd game in 4 nights against the Suns. Pheonix will be playing with revenge after a close loss in LA last week, also with 3 days of rest after 2 straight losses including getting blown out in OKC. This is a primetime game and I think the Suns will be too much run and gun for the Clips who will tire out in the 2nd half. The Suns lost by just 6 in LA last week despite shooting a measly 36% from the field. I expect them to pull out the win here.

but I like Clipps

4-1 ATS

I played your leans in a parlay. Only Griz screwed it up. Great calls though.

[Seto]

Damn. That's why I never do parlays except for freeplays anymore. Mavs against the Raps in the first week fukked up my 5-teamer freeplay I got from SBR trivia, woulda won 7500pts (which for us euros is $500 in sportsbook cash)

[Seto]

Knicks+6 -110 (betcris) (risking 4.4x to win 4x)
Knicks ml +210 (betcris) (risking 1x to win 2.1x)

Hawks ml -115 (coral) (risking 3.45x to win 3x)

Blazers+7.5 -115 (coral) (risking 2.88x to win 2.5x)

Basically riding a team I'm fairly high on (Knicks) and fading 2 teams I don't think much of for now (Grizz and Celts). Not much more to my plays than that. At this stage I don't have much interest in the other games, although I may take a stab at Nets ml if it hits +300 or so, Kings are always capable of laying an egg.

Unreal fukking bullshit in that Knicks game. Obviously I could've gotten the 6.5 later and it would've been fine but that's not even the point, Knicks led all fukking game and it was tied with 40 seconds to go and +6 pushes. Absolutely disgusting. It's amazing I'm up as much as I am considering the luck I've had this season.
