Funny, saw the C`s up 21 @ halftime and thought of you hitting those lines sometimes.
Seen quite a few times you lost those by the hook, so glad you hit that one.

Thanks, yeah I have had a rough go on a couple this season. Funnily enough the 2 I have actually hit at +1100 and +2800 have both been with the Celtics at home on a Friday night.

What "homework"? I had no interest in betting that game. If I'd taken interest in it I probably would've looked back and factored in that the Bulls had played OT the previous night. I did know they were playing 4 in 5 though. Still doesn't explain the line to me. Anyway it doesn't matter because either way there was no chance I was betting a penny on that game.

Not atacking you in anyway, just changing a few toughts, because you said you was surprised to see Dallas opening as Fave, when they didn't.
GL today.

Wizards+1.5 -110 (paddy power) (risking 4.4x to win 4x)

I can't understand why Wizards opened as (+2), they already got drilled hard twice by Celtics this season.

So are you saying it should have been bigger?

[NBA Maniac]

Harry Potter team should be Fave.

Today: 0-1. -4.4x
Total: 41-70-3, -36.57x

Fukking Wizards. They looked like they were gathering momentum but they're still that shitty team they always were.

Oh yeah that's true as well, they were favoured the first time I looked but it's certainly possible they opened as dogs before. Probably should've checked before posting that but I was too lazy to

Wolves-3.5 -108 (sportingbet) (risking 2.16x to win 2x)
Wolves-20.5 +900 (william hill) (risking 0.25x to win 2.25x)
Wolves-20.5 +2000 (william hill) (first half) (risking 0.25x to win 5x)

Looks like I underestimated how bad Phoenix is. Even 26+ cashed and 31+ woulda cashed without a 3 with 2 seconds to go by the Suns.

It's a shame this road trip ends here for them cause I have faded them every single game of this trip and woulda continued if it had gone on longer.

Thoughts on the big game tomorrow? Could be one of those games where Cavs win but don't cover.

[DOM-Ganador]

Bet if you hit a few more of those alt/spreads they might disappear from your book.

Nice hit though.

Tailed on the spread for a unit. Thanks for that.

My initial lean was Cavs for sure. Warriors are slowing down, Cavs are hot and obviously will have marked this one on the schedule.

Now I do have reservations. The first one is I remember liking OKC over Miami in 2013 in similar circumstances and Miami destroyed them in OKC. Also Warriors while they are slowing down will probably come out pissed after 2 losses and I wouldn't be surprised if they take the lead early with the Cavs off the trip.

Typically this season when I say "I like such play because A and B but I'm afraid C might happen"... C always happens. So I'll think about it a bit more. Maybe taking Cleveland live is the best option idk. Obviously it could be a start to finish blowout as well.

Ha I hope not, don't think they would. I don't win THAT many either, but definitely enough for it to be profitable to make these plays.

Lean Pelicans and Cavs in the first couple of national TV games but I'm not yet sure whether I'm going to attempt to get better numbers live or not.

[t-wizzle]

Why are the Mavs a dog? Do they have guys out?

I lean Pelicans too, but goddam them....

All year Boston has been getting so much respect from books like they are the gadamn Warriors. Celtics are a solid team, but no way should they be favorites in Dallas.

Yeah pretty much this. It has been hit and miss whether they cover those inflated lines to be fair though.

I doubt Dallas will sit anybody. None of the starters played more than 28 minutes yesterday, and this is a very winnable game. They rested guys last week coming off an OT game against Cleveland where 4 starters played 38+ minutes and they were playing in OKC which was basically a loss regardless of if they played everyone or not.

Pelicans+5 -110 (paddy power) (risking 2.2x to win 2x)

They cashed as a +310 dog for me a few days ago so they're starting to come back in my good books. I think they might finally be starting to play ok, even though they'll never be as good as they were anticipated to be before the season started. People with under on their win total will have cashed their tickets by February.

I can't stand Evans and I can't stand Gentry.

Evans is a very frustrating player in regards to how he uses his skills for sure. He was great for them last year when they closed the season strong though, so they need him.

Bulls-4 +230 (bet365) (risking 1x to win 2.3x)

[italianbandit]

Sup Coin.

I agree looking for a Cle live bet makes the most sense in that game. It's either a Cle blowout or GS keeps it close, I can't see GS blowing them out. Getting Cle live after an early GS run is what I'll be looking for.

I'm just going to pass and watch. Good luck my man.

Memphis making every 3 down the stretch. Memphis never make 3's.

The Pelicans never get a defensive stop when they need one. Ever.

[Seto]

This is going to be tight. FML.

[Seto]

How do you not get that rebound?

Eric Gordon just ballwatching. Fukking useless clown.

[Seto]

These Bulls/Pistons games at the Palace are always the same thing. 20 point swings one way, 20 point swings back the other... Maddening.

[Seto]

Good start to the day. Hopefully the Mavs don't cut my profits a bit like yesterday.

Still not sure what to do about that Cavs game.

[italianbandit]

Nice day so far.

[KRIT]

You can get Cavs live at a good price.
