clippers look like the play anyone else like them to roll over wolves?

[Allure]

People are for whatever reason trying to fade the Clippers. They faded them against Memphis and Houston and got their asses handed to them. Why go against the better team that's playing good ball even w/o their best player, when you simply play the Clippers until they lose...

Clippers minus the points.

Clippers -4.5 and over 192.5 >>> is my play

[sooner13]

Or....you could simply play Minn until they cover. Hmm....

[sooner13]

Jumping on a team when they are hot and qutting with them off a loss is the opposite strategy you want to take. Fade them ATS and quit playing them when you win. Play Minn to cover ATS until they do, and end with a win. Playing based on gut feeling or what they did in their last 2 games is sure way to end up on the wrong side. Not saying you'll lose this bet, just saying there are valid reasons to fade the Clips tonight. Goodluck either way!

Fade them ATS and quit playing them when you win?? Maybe I'm confused but that doesn't make sense to me. A team like the Clippers who can easily cover the spread in almost any game - why would you fade that hoping eventually they don't cover and then not play them anymore? I can't see any valid reason to fade the clippers tonight, with this line and against this team, other than the fact that the public is on them and people think that means teams can't win.

imma be honest with u if the clips lose this gm i can live with it cause thats the only way they dont cover the spread imo now if i play min+5 and lob city rolls all over the babywolves ill jump out my Fn window for being an idiot NBA is not the sport to try n be sharp in. Either the teams are a good match-up and the lines to high or its a good team thats being undervalued on the line other than that U TAKE THE BETTER penetrating TEAM

[sooner13]

Yes, my point is, if you jump on LA now and they win ATS tonight, then your strategy is to play them again next game to win ATS just because they're still hot and you won. Then what if they lose next game.....did you turn a profit? I mean, isn't that the point to why we are here?
Now if I fade the Clips tonight and win, I'm done, profit and move on. If they do beat the spread and I lose, then I can bet against them and get back my loss plus a unit by doing the same next game and turn a profit and quit when I win.
Your logic says that because they are hot they stay hot so ride them til they lose. My logic says they can't cover an infinite number of times and I'll play against them til they lose and end the series of bets with a win. You quit when you're ahead, not when you're behind.

[Yinz Hooligan]

the point is to take the team you think will cover the spread, so you win your bet, screw this "fade" BS

[easton1j]

Sooner - your logic makes no sense. How can you turn a profit if you keep backing a team like minny until they finally cover?? Unless you are risking more units each time. This is like a blackjack player doubling his bet until he finally wins a hand. Get real here.

Do a little searching around the NBA forum, it'll come to you. It's not a secret. It's a system and it works. Happy Gambling buddy!
