Brakon's Friday NBA Bets

[Brakon00]

Love the games on Friday night Dec 11, 2009.....absolutely love them.....2 easy $ games.....

1) Bobcats +8 vs. Spurs: This has defense written all over this game. Bobcats defend well both at home and on road and have won vs. many top teams but only at home. Their Spur's last 8 games at home vs. teams who allow less than 90 point or less a game have covered 0 for 8......means the spurs clearly shoot worse and score less giving a home loss on the spread. The Bobcats have won their last 2 at home and go into San Antonio after winning by 10+ and with that combination they are 6-1 ATS in their next game on road as 5-9 point underdogs.

2) Knicks vs. Hornets -7 : Hornets have covered 1 out of their last 5 games and have been barely able to pull out a win vs. sub .400 teams on road and haven't really shown they can win by more than 3 baskets at home. However, there is one difference in this game that is a HUGE factor. In all the games the hornets have played recently that they haven't covered they have won the games. Each of the last 3 games they did not cover went under the posted Over/Under because scoring in the 2nd half decreased tremendously. This game this won't happen. The Knicks make teams keep starters in bc of their explosive 3 point shooting and fast tempo playing. 6 out of the last 9 road games in which the O/U was at 205 or more on the road for the Knicks they have covered. In the 3 they did not cover it was against teams that had won 2 or more consecutive games.. Perfect spot for the hornets. I like Hornets -7 here and may put them in a teaser with the Bobcats at +8 vs. Spurs.

Says the guy with 8 posts. Why not let the man do his thing and keep your negative thoughts to yourself?
Playing one, fading the other.

Brakon I respect your picks and all and I know how truly good you are because I seen it myself but wtf man.... Bobcats over the Spurs at home??? And the Knicks have been playing really good basketball beating some pretty elite teams

[Razz_Donkey]

Found the Hornets at -6.5 still, so I'll probably play that. Not crazy about the Cats on the road so I think I'll stay away from that one. Thanks for sharing Brakon, and good luck!

[2daBank]

i actually like char with the points in this spot. not touching the other 1....gl

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

I could see S.A blowing Charlotte out by 20

[SaffaCappa]

Keep the picks coming Brakon, dont agree with them tonight but at least you have the balls to post your picks!

[Brakon00]

well....when these two bets win.....i'm pretty sure you will look back to see why I chose the lines and the analysis behind them.

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

Okay well to show my confidence in you, I'm playing them even though if I were to pick these games myself, I would have chose the opposite.. Charlotte +8 against S.A at home scares the shit out of me.. and 8.5 is alot to lay with the Hornets against the NY Knicks.. they aint as bad as they used to be.. I'm playing them, just better hope these plays are right

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

I'm gonna do a 5 point teaser with these

[pattymayo]

lmao people really have confidence in this clown? Let me dig up some of his earlier threads dude hits like 20%

[Brakon00]

u dont need to do a teaser.....I have super trust in these two bets. I was going to post that the bobcats play in san antonio is a 10 unit bet for me ....1 unit being $55....most of the plays I post are 2-4 units a game....this one is a bold and super confident bet. ....the hornets is about a 4 unit

[Brakon00]

lmao people really have confidence in this clown? Let me dig up some of his earlier threads dude hits like 20%

yep dude...I hit 20% SURE DUDE! just check my last week of posts......i'm 12-5 in the bets i have posted

[og4667]

fade the spurs till they prove anything and hornets are favored for by 6.5 for a reason. sharp picks

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

I did a teaser just to be sure.. I'd rather take the safer route with an easier spread to cover for both teams as opposed to betting the games individually with the chance I may go 1-1 and come out even as wellas covering a higher spread...

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

Brakon what do you think of Dayton-5 in CBB tonight?

[pattymayo]

fade the spurs till they prove anything and hornets are favored for by 6.5 for a reason. sharp picks

ya because they are 8-2 at home against a 3-7 road team. Knicks match up extremely well, I love them +6.5 and the over

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

Got Charlotte at +13 and New Orleans -1.5... Not feeling good bout the N.O pick though.. I got a feeling NY wins outright

[iceaxe56]

an ole gambler once said don't bet against hot teams(knicks)--bobcats game will be defense so play the under

[pattymayo]

Knicks are extremely hot right now... 4-1 in December, 4-1 ATS... NO on a three game winning streak against Minnesota(3-19) and two wins against Sacramento(9-12). Knicks already beat NO at home this year. Knicks+points

[xxbadazxx]

No prob i'm on with the bobcats also, wallace is on fire they might win outright

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

Yea........... Bobcats plus the points huh?? CHARLOTTE is down 20 fuking points with 3 mins left in the 2nd god damn quarter

[2daBank]

Yea........... Bobcats plus the points huh?? CHARLOTTE is down 20 fuking points with 3 mins left in the 2nd god damn quarter

wtf is your problem guy? if you tailed this dude or any1 else for that matter its on you. mabey try this cap your own gms!! i know its tough and you rather have som1 else to blame but coming in here snapping at som1 else cause you tailed them is sad. throw in the damn gm isnt even at halftime you got real issues

[S.K.M.]

Yea........... Bobcats plus the points huh?? CHARLOTTE is down 20 fuking points with 3 mins left in the 2nd god damn quarter

Great defense by the Bobcats. It is only halftime though buddy. Have you ever watched an NBA game before? They could easily get the backdoor cover here....

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

I been watching the NBA for over a decade.. and I doubt the Bobcats will score outscore the Spurs at home in the 2nd half... Anyhow, New Orleans you had at -8...and the Knicks are winning

[2daBank]

you been watching nba for 10 years wow! all that experience and yet you still cant cap your own gms

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

Actually if you check this thread, I told Brakon I was originally on Spurs - 8 and NY Knicks +7.. I can cap my own games but hit barely over 50 %... Handicapping is not easy, I don't care what anyone says

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

Sorry to sound like a dick but these games were pure garbage tonight Brakon... I don't know where you came up with the idea that these were good picks.... Cahrlotte +8 at Spurs at home???? the struggling Hornets -8 over the Knicks who are riding a 3 game win streak and can score in bunches??? I blame myself because I was on the opposite side of both of these games and could have went 2-0 but I tailed you and ended up going 0-2 man

[S.K.M.]

Spurs are only up 8 now buddy....

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

@ 2dabank... shut the fuk up bro, I'm not lashing out at Brakon right now but I got a real problem when you're gonna come up on here and start assuming so much shit... I'm pissed off that I DIDN'T cap my own games for these 2 particular games because I would have went 2-0... thats my frustration, that I didnt trust myself and instead someone else who lost... yea losings part of gambling, and like I said I'm mad at myself cuz it was my choice... You don't know nothing, don't give me the you got issues bullshit

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

Like I said, I aint pissed at the fukin guy cuz he handed out 2 losers... everyone loses one time or another.. Im mad at myself nd now I got ya coming up here assumin that i'm in here rippin on the guy for tailing his picks... Im stating the obvious which you would see if u read the beginning of the damn thread when I said I was leaning heavy on the opposite of Brakons 2 losing picks tonight which ultimately i decided against doing

[2daBank]
