    1st Quarter Locks !!!

    Does anyone have any 1st quarter locks or very strong leans??? Points will be awarded to whoever makes the best pick and short reasoning. I will be betting the top 1-3 leans you guys present and generously awarding points for your help. Can be a side or an over/under, no team totals.

    altieriflyers I have a question, have you been using this site to help you make picks? if so how useful and accurate has it been for you? I love the insight you gave me and will most likely be making that play, im just curious about the overall site and their picks and how accurate they are.

    The site is just a stats page, official stats for everything you can imagine in sports. I guess there are many like them.
    Betting 1st Quarters in NBA in my experience is VERY hard (coinflip really), and because of that I think the only way
    you can MAYBE have a reference of what is going to happen in the first 12 minutes is the official numbers and statics of each team. In the game at hand you can see a big difference in the margin stat for Philly (-4.5) and that COULD be something that tonight can help to cover the line. USUALLY sixers start slow, but that is not a gimmie. Again, in MY experience betting 1st Q is more of a coinflip.

    Good luck

    Hawks f'ed over my 1st half over bet. They were on pace w/ the Cavs 1Q to blow it apart, then they score friggin 12 points in the 2Q? You kidding me?
