CK/wangichu's Think Tank

[SmackdownV]

Not yet...............need some points and some fouls to make it happen....................

[Abrcrom12]

Abrcrom12................

Follow the Smack....................he won't let you down..........

I HEAR THAT!!
Still 50/50 though.
Gonna come down to the wire.

I also hedged the over with the 1H under with some advice from CK.
Could possibly double up!!!!

[Abrcrom12]

MAKE SOME FOCKING FOUL SHOTS!!!!!

[SmackdownV]

I am putting my entire bankroll on Atlanta to cover +9

The Smack Has spoken

[peterpan19]

...well the FT killed the under...

[peterpan19]

...oh boys that one is close...maybe just maybe can denver miss here and not foul ?

[SmackdownV]

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

The Smack Spoke

[twinky99]

missed the under by 2, good luck for the next game CK, Wang.

[SmackdownV]

Changed my mind.................

5 units on the Cavs over 181................

No ATL to cover

Just betting the over 181...................

[SmackdownV]

Ok............take it back...........

I have 5 Units on the Cavs over 181
I have 5 Units on the Cavs -9

[cocknocker]

Still ready for Celtics+5 and the under 192.5 HEAVY, wang. It's good sun!

[cocknocker]

Alright wang, too many things going on with the Lakers/Rockets game so we'll leave that one alone and concentrate on the Gang Green and win 3 bets on that game.

Boston+3 1st half
Boston+5 HEAVY
Boston/Orlando under 193
Rockets+9

[cocknocker]

I posted them for us already. Rafer coming back will mix minutes just enough for us to get the first half cover. Pierce will be heard from in this one for sure. I look for the Gang Green to get out to a quick start and not let up on the Magic. I also took a play on the Celtics moneyline as well for this game as i feel that they have an excellent chance at winning it outright. this baybee goes seven. The winner gets blown out against the Cavs in game 1 of the conference finals

[cnleaf]

Im thinking LAL/HOU OVER 194 in Game 4 since Yao is out, that means no shot blocker inside the paint. And also No yao means the speed of the game is up in the offense end for Hou. The line is opened at 194 already a few pts up compared to the first three games. Anyone plz talk me off this pick.

yao being out makes me want some rockets action. +7 is one hell of a lot of points to give to the rockets at home... i dunno... we'll see though. I'm so in love with the celtics play that i really don't know if i should touch anything else.

bingo, could not have said it any better. Just wish melo's buzzer 3 would have clanked. would have actually been a profitable day as i played dallas ML with a hedge on DEN +3.5/cavs -9... oh well, we're getting some good looks at that game and that's what's up.

[Vreston]

Is it sure that Yao won't play? It makes a big difference in the paint. The Laker line is at -6 now at Bwin but they don't have any prices posted. Guess they're thinking about it.

yao is out for the remainder of playoff/ season. will be resting his fractured foot/ hairline fracture, then rehab. abt three months worth, to let it heal without surgery. any sports site has it as headline.

I know! If that shot doesn't go in we go at least 2-1 on the day instead of 1-2. But ohe well. Pee on Carmelo. He is one of my favorite players, but he didn't have to do that to my money! I had a nice sized amount of money on the total....

You know what? You're right. The Rockets played a lot of games last year without Yao and T-Mac also. They know how to win without them in the lineup. I am leaning toward the over, and not the points, as the Rockets don't have a true center now with Yao and Mutumbo out. Which means that Kobe scores 64 points tonight by himself. I mean who's gonna stop him from gettig to the rim!

[cocknocker]

Alright, I caught some flak overnight on my email for not pointing out exactly what played yesterday so I will point it out today, and try to remember in the future to point it out. If I forget, somebody please tap my shoulder and let me know.

LT rule "Buy 3 points for any dog with a +5 to +8 line applied:


Boston+8 HEAVY

My theory: Play any team that lost by double digits for the 1st half the following game

Boston+3 (2.5 is fine) 1st half

Play the under after two or more consecutive overs

Boston/Orlando under 196 Buying 3 points

Now this is not to say that taking Boston+5 is a bad idea. But I am a purist when it comes to our playoff tips, so I am buying the three for insurance purposes. I don't recommend that a person play the three extra points unless you can get them for -170. Anything over -170 starts to mess with the +-EV. Betus is a horribe book but at least they have 3 points for -170 FYI

[cocknocker]

However, if you want to take the Rockets, let me know. It's your call on that one. At least we know that we will be fading the public for sure, LOL! I'm game, I am gonna play them no matter what, but I will be buying the 3 points (LT Rule) since the line falls within the +5 to +8 numbers. If sexymit can talk jg into the play then I guess that I also can be talked into the play. I'm not unwilling to follow your lead on it!

[suckatmyjob]

thinking low both games and rockets will hang in there for now

[SmackdownV]

With you guys on the Lakers............

Large bet on the over 196......Without Yao.........the Rockets play a faster tempo.

I love this over in this spot. Then I am rolling HUGE on the Boston ML.......Doc don't drop games like this.

GL to all today.

[cocknocker]

Correct, Smackdown. That game goes over the total. I also like the Rockets too. The line is up to 8, and that is too many points to give the Rockets at home. This is the biggest underdog spread that they have gotten ALL YEAR at home. Of course I am going to tease the Rockets and the over after much thought. But I am waiting on wang to get back to me on this one.

[FreeFall]

Whats LTs rule of moving it three points?

On the over 196 too

But the boston ml? Takes balls. I'm taking the pts (PS. Doc is a shitty coach.)

[cocknocker]

Add three points if you can get them at -170 on dogs with a line of +5 to +8, and favorites of -8 to -10

[cocknocker]

Alright wang,

I just updated the big board with the Rockets+9 as we discussed on our text conversation this morning. I think that we're all set for today. We have 4 crispy plays!

[suckatmyjob]

this over under for houston / lal is rising quick wow

[cocknocker]

The under is the correct play when things like that happen

[suckatmyjob]

CK

wasnt it also posted somewhere if there's 2 overs then next game is unders i.e. LAL/HOU? and the BOS/ORL

the line is moving up too quick for me so I canceled the LAL/HOU under but just wondering

[cocknocker]

Exactly that's why we're takin the under in the Boston/Orlando game. I teased the Rockets with the under as well

[isiah121]

Man seems like my OVER for the Rockets/Lakers game is not looking good.

[FreeFall]

Add three points if you can get them at -170 on dogs with a line of +5 to +8, and favorites of -8 to -10

Why is that? Care to prove it to me?

Thank you,

FreeFall
