[KingCrimson21]

Hope you hit well over half of those picks. Especially the game you will be attending. That will be a one or two point Rockets victory you win your wager AND see a good game! (for in case I am wrong, I am guessing, maybe wishing for... don`t want none of them young guns aiming at me if it turns out to be a 10 point game!!)... Peace out.

[haserfauld]

I would be wary of lakers -10, honestly. bynum is doubtful, no pau yet. unless that changes you'll see a whole lot of kobe carrying the team, and if he isn't 100% on I could easily see memphis keep this within 10.

[cap10]

roag et al

friday is crazy in the nba;; i say bet lightly;; i dont like anything a lot so i will just play my 5t parlay at -5.5
just riding some hot tms and hope spurs dont wake up tonight
atl
den
hou
gs
por pays about 40-1 depending where u play;;

ps;; the biggest payout i ever hit with this -5.5 was a 6t where 20 paid me 24000 ;; mostly dogs ;; very hard to repeat

also hit a 12t ats for 10000 a few yrs back so parlays do hit once in a while

[cap10]

roag
bos has beaten phx by at least 17 the last 3 times;; unless they take the night off they do it again;; bos -9.5 is doable;; i dont have a strong lean but after sleepwalking minny , bos may feel like a beatdown again;; just sayin

[cap10]

kevin martin out for 2 months (wrist) for sac;; man that tm just cant catch a break

[haserfauld]

roag:

going with a 3tm/8pt, definitely playing bos -2.5 and cle -0.5, but for the 3rd would you lean orl -5, lakers -2, or den +8? personally i'm leaning orlando

[RoagBettor]

hase, I think Orlando will destroy Detroit, but I like all 3 to cover. Lakers should win but just off the road trip with injuries and Kobe sick could be riskier.

[travisowain]

kevin martin out for 2 months (wrist) for sac;; man that tm just cant catch a break

that really sucked! i loved betting the over with them in certain situation, and it worked out well for me. now i wont touch that at all with there main scorer

[travisowain]

im betting the orlando over and the pacers over. the orlando over im very confident about as the better team, and ESPECIALLY AT HOME, dominates the pace of the game. they may of lost last time, but i dont see that shooting performance happening again. the indiana game im betting the over as well because they love to push the ball and they dont play shit for defense. theyve havent been going over lately cause theyve had absolutely HORRENDOUS shooting nights. i dont see that trend continuing for too long, and im betting on tonight being the night they do it

[RoagBettor]

I think it was Houlihan who posted a trend that when Orlando gives up 100 pts the next game is an under play.

[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
wash pk (lightly)

Game:

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

I really like the Hawks, Denver, and Washington. Glad to see we're on the same page lol. But the Hawks is the pick of the day.

[BTTNext]

Tailing you Roag for tonight. Loving the Hawks, and Wizards as well. GL tonight.

EDIT: Loved the Raptors before forgot about a serious matchup problem with Calderon on Paul. Paul is going to light him up.

[travisowain]

alright sports terminator, so the hawks are your lock o' the day? im throwing down the sixers/nets OVER 190. and i would go so far as to say they are going to get to 205. but over 190 is just safer...lets hear everyones platinum unpickable locks of the day

[milkshakeballa]

Has - I LOVE your bets 2nite and would also stay away from LAL 2nite.

One thing though: 1Q Mem +3 - Kobe is obviously going to come out gunning....if he is hot forget about it! Might make a small play on them for the 1H though

[milkshakeballa]

Really really need BOS CLE ORL and ATL to come through 2nite!!! BOL to everyone!

[haserfauld]

yes, if kobe comes out on fire then that bet is going down, but memphis has been very strong 1st Q. lakers not as much...although the 1H bet is a good one as well. I'm a huge lakers fan but I KNOW we always play to our opponent's level. with the injuries and sickness right now, I'm hoping memphis keeps it close.

agreed i like the bet...only way it doesnt cash is IF kobe is on fire...and he is generally a slow starter at the beginning of seasons...

[RoagBettor]

Roag you like CHA to stay within 5 of ATL?

No I just bet it so I could lose. LOL!

On the way to the Rockets game with my daughter!

[HustleGetPaid]

Here we go. All straight bets $55 to win $50:

I got the same 3 plays, but have o207 in the Suns/Celtics game, best of luck!!!

[travisowain]

MEMPHIS +18-110 (B+8)
SAN ANTONIO +12-110 (B+8)

we'll see...i got half my bankroll going tonight

[haserfauld]

hot damn, i knew i should have taken orl -4 at home 1st Q. at least I have them in the parlay

[haserfauld]

now you see what i mean when i say they're the best 1st Q team in the league. holy crap

[RoagBettor]

Yep i loved orlando tonight
