    I am never betting on the nba again

    After losing half of my bankroll on the bulls last night, I decided to bet the rest on the lakers vs. nuggets under, and got wiped out by that garbage 2pt put back at the last 2sec. I have decided that it is impossible to make money on the nba every game is just a coin toss, ill save my money and wait for football season to start. Basketball betting is for suckers!!!

    Maybe you should learn something about money management instead of putting your entire bankroll on 2 games and when they lose.

    You won't be missed.

    With any sport, it's all about money management. You can't put half of your bankroll on any bet, no such thing as LOCKS. Every year I lost in NBA, but finally have a wining season this year after i started playing everything 2-3% of my bankroll. NO CHASING!!! I was at the game last night, took Lakers first half since Laker usually come out strong. Took Nuggets 2nd half after seeing them able to comeback time after time and Lakers not being able to stop their fast breaks.

    yeah man, it's tough to take losses like that but in the end it all evens out. if you are gonna be a long term sports bettor, you can't be betting your whole roll in two games. that's just giving your money away to the books. try 5% max and see how things work out. money management and not making emotional bets are couple key aspects of sports betting.
