Goat, I think that's a bit of a generalisation. If you look at the people who post regularily in this thread, you'll notice that they do post their own plays. Sometimes in here and sometimes in other threads, even their own ie kobe.

And again, the people who come in here day in and day out, and I think realistically there's probably maybe 10, 15 max - I'm not talking about those who come in and post once a daying say 'hi', 'good luck LB' 'thanks for the picks LB', those people don't 'cry' or get 'so upset'. Upset about losing a bet? Hell yeah. Upset AT LB? No.

Then again, I took your post as a joke and responded accordingly while other people are jumping on it so what the hell do I know?

Not sure what that means. But I'll just keep my comments to myself. Just trying to look at it from laker boy perspective. I know a lot of you know about this shit, but I bet you most of the ppl that follow this guy are just moochers that don't know shit. And that's just not fair for someone to go and do all the research themselves and then these moochers come along.

See? Now THAT's the kind of thing that makes me love you Paco. Awesome stuff

Goat Milk · 04-09-10, 08:20 PM

I like you Shari, and yeah, KobeFan I like him too. Anyone that has their own opinion and can make wagers without asking "Oh is this still good LB, should I do it LB? Ay the line changed LB, what does that mean? Any early game plays LB?" is all good in my book

goat there is a group of guys on here that NEVER bitch if they get a losing play...there are a lot of kids here that have done that in the past..and why do u care what people do?...NBA isnt everyones cup of tea bro and if you have somebody who is really good at it why not tail?...i have actually learned a lot from lb these last few months or so and now i can find myself knowing some(not all) of lbs plays that he puts out..my thing is the money management...i like to see how much he plays on a particular play...as of right now i dont know when to make bigger plays but im getting there...just chill man, give your input cause believe it or not i respect your knowledge of the NBA too..

i admit i usually tail LB, and i ask for his opinions about the plays that i will make on my own, because i'm not really confident about my pick

Goat Milk · 04-09-10, 08:27 PM

Na bro, I aint sayin you midget toss. I know you ain't one of those moochers. And I like guys like Kobe fan that make their own plays. Just guys like this "sportsfan" comes on here and say's one thing, like "oh what are your plays LB" and then he gives them and sports fan bets it right away without even doing 1 minute of research.

I ain't hating I'm just trying to look out for Laker Boy because I'm sure he likes most of you but then again there's those moochers who tail blindly and then just hound him with one question after another. It's not fair.

i make my own plays but not most of the time i ask people here in the forum about it, it's good to have other people's opinion maybe they have a better view

It's all good, Goat. I get where you're coming from and if I'm being honest, I can't imagine how annoying LB may find it when people repeat the same questions, don't bother reading through the thread, constantly hassle him, etc. I know it does my head in and it's not like they're hounding my arse!

But as I said, the regular guys (and maybe girls although I think I'm the only one) in this thread are generally trying to learn and do contribute when they can. I think partially it's a confidence thing which is fair enough as it takes guts to come in here and post your plays when you've got hundreds of silent stalkers refreshing this thread like there's no tomorrow.

All I know is that I look forward to hearing what you have to say so I hope no one's scared you off to the point where you bolt from the thread. You've made me question a few of my plays and although there were times I should've listened to you and I didn't, there have been a few others where you've saved me some cash.

But you better watch your back if this damn Houston play doesn't come in as I upped my bet after I saw you were on it too

quick$ · 04-09-10, 08:31 PM

give it a little more time goat...you'll be so sequestered by those coments, questions that ignoring them will be second nature to you. i do see you post often with your view and angle so that's very much appreciated...whether or not you
on the same side as LB or Paco. GL

kobefanatic · 04-09-10, 08:32 PM

where's LB? is he not wagering tonight?

Do you honestly think this isn't a good idea for a newb? He/She is tailing one of the best on here and asking questions in order to learn enough to make their own informed plays. I feel for LB because I know he does get overwhelmed with questions but realistically this is probably a good plan for someone who just started out gambling on NBA.

Dude, I'm Canadian and even I've given up on the bloody Raptors. Think we used all of our good mojo during the Olympics. Didn't even back the Blue Jays today although I desperately wanted to.

It's like some damn Yank has a voodoo doll of Crosby and he's rocking back and forth "Canucks must die. Kill all Canucks". No more Raptors for me this year.

STRAIGHT BET

kobefanatic · 04-09-10, 08:37 PM

hornets really can't be trusted

Goat Milk · 04-09-10, 08:37 PM

I only say what is fair. If lakerboy has no problem when ppl hound him with dumb questions, and moochers so patiently waiting for his picks then pouncing on them right away, then I have no problem with it.

Let's just drop this b/c i'm getting a headache

one thing that i have learned about lb is that if u ask him a question and he doesnt like it or what not he just will not respond...he has done that to me on a few occasions...

alamo · 04-09-10, 08:43 PM

Anyone here think Dallas has a good chance of covering 5 points ? Dallas have been poor lately but I think they may just ask some serious questions tonight in Portland

Dallas has a good shot at covering the spread. However, the only thing that frightens me is Brandon Roy. Sure, Butler is the best perimeter defender on his team and one of the best in the league, but have you guys watched how he plays when he's on TV? He's honestly a completely different player when he plays on NBA TV or like TNT. The last few times he's played on NBA TV, he's completely tore it up as far as I remember, one of those times he had a career high 50 I believe.
