Roag's NBA Regular Season Thread

travis, that f*cks me up sometimes also. I think you'll be OK with the 22 though.

[monkeybiz]

Hell, I still look for the line on the Supersonics. I agree on the 22.

[monkeybiz]

Also, on your under in the Knicks game. Got it at 206. Thank you.

Man, just when I thought the Wizzards had something going this year, Jamison is out for at least 3 more weeks and Butler got hurt early last nite. Knee. But can they still beat the Nets at home ? Thoughts ?

Wouldn't touch it...I'm laying off WAS until they get Jamison back. Maybe trail @ home against good teams but that's it. GOing have to watch them closely next week or so.

and GREAT...JustBet.com is down. Has anybody heard anything bad from this book? I for some reason just don't trust them. When I tried to cash some out they said first payout has to be a refund on the credit card...is it like this at all books?

Was thinking to just lay off 2nites games all together though after last night. So frustrating.

i better be alright, or im gonna figure out a way to kick myself in the junk. but if a team is gonna get blown out by +22 its after a double OT loss to shitty team then traveling a time zone away and playing a back to back against a top team who plays well at home....fingers are crossed

[monkeybiz]

Milkshake, it is definitely not like that at most books. I do recall it occurring occasionally years ago, but rarely. But I would not be concerned if that has always been their policy. Wizards are back up to -6 at most books. I agree that this is one to stay away from, although Butler is still listed as questionable.

[monkeybiz]

Travis, I think we need to get you a map ! Charlotte and Cleveland are in the same time tone last I heard. <smile> And don't forget to set your clocks back tonite, everyone.

And didn't the Wildcats win last nite ? I think you're on this New Orleans thing again. I know they won as I watched them and the Knicks score 38 points in double OT to burn my under by 6.

Not a problem, man. Like Roag I still get very confused about the Hornets-Wildcats thing.

Good luck. I haven't decided on anything except your Knicks under.

[monkeybiz]

Two straight picks tonite.

Knicks-Sixers UNDER 206
Mavs over the Clippers -5.5

Since I am a dazzling 5-7 this year, I recommend you pay no attention !

Hmmm is this for real... DETROIT +3 against THE BUCKS??? I know Detroit is without Rip but they still have enough pieces.

[RoagBettor]

After looking at the lines all day, nothing jumps out at me except the Rockets and Bucks to win outright, but I can't pull the trigger so I'm going to lay off. Might have a 2H bet.

If Portland loses to the Rockets tonight, I will go heavy on Portland tomorrow to bring the Thunder back to earth. Portland destroyed the Thunder by 35 pts the last time they played in OKC.

ROAG!!! Please no!!!!!!!!!!!! OKC is FOR REAL this year!!! No coming back down to earth for these guys this year!

Haha BOL to you tho Roag!! We will see what happens!

[milkshakeballa]

K I got 1.5 units on PHI/NYC U 207 thanks to everyone here. I like it!

Anyone know if Butler is playing?

[travisowain]

1st:
san antonio -3.5 in 3rd Quarter (im on this 3rd quarter kick, im gonna bet low for a while and see how it pans out)

parlay for tonight:
76er's -2
76er's/knicks under 206





tomorrow night got a teaser before the lines changed:
lakers pickem against hawks in LA
nuggs -4 against grizz in denver
celtics -4 against hornets in boston

[milkshakeballa]

Ok had to get some action today:

Straight bet:

PHI/NYC U 207
1.6 units to win 1.5

3 team special:
CLE -6.5
PHi/NY U 215
SAC +24
1.8 units to win 1.5

[milkshakeballa]

And is anybody else surprised by SAC? They SOMEWHAT battled back against OKC and only lost by 12 (OKC IS GOOD!) and almost beat NO. I know NO is bad but I thought SAC was going to be one of the worst in WC this year. They could be some ATS monsters this year.

[travisowain]

ROAG!!! Please no!!!!!!!!!!!! OKC is FOR REAL this year!!! No coming back down to earth for these guys this year!

Haha BOL to you tho Roag!! We will see what happens!

i like the thunder and think theyll be good this year, i think theyll make the playoffs and scare someone. but on a night by night basis i just feel they are too young to play consistently. theyre a team im gonna stay away from since i dont know what they are bringing each night...dont get me me wrong though, their starting 5 and 6th off the bench is super talented and a year and one veteran away from blowing up! get a defensive stopper/3pt shooter in there as that vet, maybe a bruce bowen, raja bell type. gotta be one of those kinds out there in free agency this year

[monkeybiz]

Butler is still listed as questionable in DC. He went down hard. And the Wizzards fell apart for the next 10 minutes. They did compete ok in the second half, however.

I'm still thinking about this one.

how often will you hit moneyline pics like this? (picking a couple dogs) i mean give or take....i just cant pickem like that. basically, is their a strategy. are you looking at odds to get best lines, etc... or is it just gut feeling?

[RoagBettor]

LOL this is a high risk, low chance of hitting bet. But I wouldn't be surprised to see 3 out of 4 of these teams win tonight.

C*cksucking, Mutherf*cking, a$$hole-choking, f*cking d*cksucking f*cking Wake Forest choked the game against Miami. If Oregon beats USC tonight I'm done betting for awhile, I can't take anymore bad beats.

[RoagBettor]

On top of that, I needed UNLV to cover +37 against TCU. TCU is up 34-0 and THROWS for a f*cking TD with a minute left. That is NOT a Christian thing to do!!! I hope they burn in f'n hell!!!

[travisowain]

i never touch football cause their is too many throw away plays that will cover/beat a huge spread, for no reason! plus i dont know it like i know basketball

I suppose that depends on who you ask . Seriously though, that's all about BCS computer points right there.

[RoagBettor]

Yeah, but what made it worse is UNLV RUSHING the ball to run out the clock with a minute left instead of trying to throw and actually score a TD. F*ckers must have been on the over themselves.

[SportsTerminator]

I wonder what to expect from the Knicks today. If only they were good as their intros to the lineups. They really went all out for the intro lineups lol... to lose.

[SportsTerminator]

Wow they booed Larry Hughes lol that has to hurt.

[SportsTerminator]

34-20 Philly still in the first. This Knicks isn't coming back on Philly. I knew I should have took Philly -2.

[travisowain]

1st quarter is super high, but im still not worried. it was high yesterday and then the bobcats slowed it down and they didnt come anywhere close to going over (well with an extra 10 minutes they did) and the thunder scored 40 in the first quarter of a game and didnt cover a 200-210 spread...knicks are that terrible

shaq is like a cancer now...hes a giant black tumor that goes somewhere and just grows and sucks down the entire team. hes just doodoo butter...i swear to god im not touching the cavs to cover at all this year

[RoagBettor]

Rockets 1Q +1 -115

$57.50 to win $50

[RoagBettor]

Knicks 2H -3.5 -110

[ztballer]
