Roag's NBA Regular Season Thread

[SportsTerminator]

Who ever thought the Suns would win tonight against BOSTON. I'm keeping my eye on the Suns. The Bucks surprise me too.

[haserfauld]

alright, my card tonight:

3tm/8pt:
bos -2.5
orl -5
cle -0.5



1st Q:

ML parlay: ORL/CLE/BOS +200
cle -2.5
memphis +3 push
wash pk (lightly)

Game:

cle -7.5 (bought point)
memphis ML $5 (why not, lakers are injury plagues and AI is piiiiiiissed)
Hawks -2

5 losses, 2 wins, and a push. Technically, I did alright on the night because I also took portland ML (tailing ST), and a prop with KG over 21 points+rebounds. ended up down about $20, nothing major. I didn't post those though. either way...bos was the real killer tonight.

[nybigapple]

Yeah the Boston Phoenix game was tricky... I just went with the over which luckily hit. On a side note, I have KG in my fantasy team, and he had an awesome night yesterday, but damn his stats have really dropped off this season.

[KiDBaZkiT]

I like the home team. Atlanta owned the Nuggets last year and they only got better this year.

Didnt Denver beat ATL SU in ATL last year? Granted I think I am gonna play ATL, I just dont wanna go against Carmelo right now, plus Joe Johnson ripped his team-mates after a loss last night and that could be detrimental to their play tonight.

[RoagBettor]

I would wait and play the Atlanta game for the 2H. With both teams getting hammered last night anything can happen.

No thats not detrimental thats a good sign of leadership. This is a team on the rise and he was just reminding them that those kind of losses cant be accepted. The hawks will come out gunning tonite.

[RoagBettor]

I got killed on college football and soccer again today. I'm only betting NBA and NCAA basketball from now on.

[killersweet]

Roag, what do u think about the raps-mavs total today?

[haserfauld]

1st Q leans:

NJ +4.5
CHI -2
MEM +1

not sure if I'm playing them though

i here u roag;; it doesnt matter what u think;; ncaa fb has these crazy results;; eg;; argue all u want nd should have simply crushed navy;;;; but its ncaa fb;so anything can happen;; goodbye;; i dont mind losing;; but when its a crazy result i cannot deal with it;; i just play a 7 tm parlay and hope for the best cause i know someone will screw me;;
gl all

Roag, what do u think about the raps-mavs total today?

Tough call. I lean over but Toronto on a back to back could stink it up tonight.

[cap10]

like i said yest. fridays are crazy in the nba;; only went 2-5 with my -5.5 scheme as only por and hou covered while den, atl, gs were flat;; today i like some dogs too;; tms by -5.5 ;; den dal chi ny mem 90-1 or so gl

my reasoning for these picks are as follows;;

atl off a roady;; should be distracted
tor blew their load in norleans
char blew their load vs atl
mil blew their load in minny
lac blew their load in gs;;
lets cash this baby;;

[haserfauld]

[RoagBettor]

Waiting for a play on Chicago and NY 2H

[haserfauld]

look at this den/atl game. 47 fouls so far and counting

[haserfauld]

49 now, with 53 free throw attempts

[haserfauld]

I like charlotte +3 3rd Q, bulls -4.5 2nd half. line seems mismatched.

[Stealinhome]

49 now, with 53 free throw attempts

Yea man crazy game in ATL

[haserfauld]

59 free throws made in the game. refs got $$ on the over or something...that's nuts. half the team is about to foul out for both of them

[Stealinhome]

This is one of those games you just have to shake your head at like dal vs la game. Part of NBA betting is knowing some times the refs are betting the other way and you have no chance on that game.

[haserfauld]

look at that...71 free throw attempts and 57 personal fouls. LOL that's insane.

[Stealinhome]

look at that...71 free throw attempts and 57 personal fouls. LOL that's insane.

I wonder what the record is?

[haserfauld]

over 100...but you gotta go back to the 1940s/50s it looks like lol

[cap10]

wtf;; the nba is all over the map tonight;;
celtics= sleepwalking
nuggets=sleepwalking
jazz=sleepwalking;;


i am not complaining but i know these 3 tms can crush most tms by15+ ;; so wtf

[SportsTerminator]

What's up with the Jazz... do they only play well on national broadcasts at home specifically? That team has no heart...

[RoagBettor]

Knicks 2H cashes again (about the only bet I hit today)

[ztballer]

Knicks 2H, down 30 at the half was a godsend

[haserfauld]

1st Q leans:

NJ +4.5
CHI -2
MEM +1

not sure if I'm playing them though

2-1, that's acceptable

[RoagBettor]

I hit the Knicks 2H -3.5 and the Clips/Grizz 2H over 100 last night. Lost the Bulls/Bobkittens over 90 - so many missed free throws.
