    The NBA is so insane I would not be shocked to see Rockets lose in Utah, gotta be honest.

    Doubtful but not impossible...

    Im sure it'll hit, but you could psycho analyze every single pick and tell us why its bad or could be wrong. IMO its a good bet.

    What could go wrong?
    I would LOVE to be on the other side of this ridiculous 4 team parlay. Why bothering throwing in a -1200 into it? Its just plain stupid. You're buying multiple points on the Saints and Magic and paying "vig" on each 1/2 point bought. I know small $20 bettors place bets like this but larger bettors rarely do because they know how terrible it is to rely on 4 teams coming through and barely getting even money for your troubles. If you haven't made the bet yet, DON'T DO IT as I can see Tony getting wood after seeing this bet go through, LOL.

    Throwing the Spurs in adds 77 dollars to the payout, does anyone really see the Spurs losing at home tonight?

    So what would you suggest? Betting a spread and praying you get lucky?

    I agree with Vito in betting straights. You lose a couple and win a couple and you split.

    On the other hand, you could lose all 4 and take a big hit, but odds are that wont happen.

    Good luck tonight, let us know what you decide.

    Why don't you just throw in Portland over in a tease and add some more despair to this ???? It looks good, but if it looks to good to be true, it usually is.....

    i'm also on orlando. houston ml should cash but i would bet the spread instead.

    no value in spurs ml. take either NOP or POR instead.

    I don't like saints +14.5 -400, I'm on saints +7 -125 but the seahawks can blow people out at home, I don't think you change the odds of covering by 30% there taking the extra.

    And to the person who'd trust the spurs more than the magic, one is at -500, one -1200. Gotta agree with the masses, no value in spurs ml.
