Lakerboy NBA thread for rest of Season until playoffs end

[phatgentleman]

yes fair?

ill take it

[Flopa3]

Rough NBA night for me... trying to bail out with 2nd half Blazers and under, hope it comes in! (looking decent so far)

I'm with you on it

[Flopa3]

ill take it

I though you would. I'm off to be I have to be up in 5 1/2 hours for work. If they come back I'll give you your 15 points and be happy I won my Blazers bet. If not I'll have 15 sbr points. GL

[rumple]

Lb is in the man, downswings will happen of course

[phillybadboy]

ws up shark,phillybadboy,did you play anything today

[hels]

Guys, LB lost a few nights. Get off of him. I don't think he needs the guys tailing him to tell him if he is making too many plays or not. He will get back on trap. He was on a sick run to start now on a downswing. It happens. He will get hot again.

If you are referring to me, I apologise if it came across as harsh/insulting towards LB.

I have been tailing him quite a while now and respect his ability. All I was trying to do is point out a simple fact that may or may not be relevant. My ideas are only spoken to help benefit everyone here. I want all of us to win big each and every night!

If LB reads my post and says to himself, "this is completely irrelevant and a waste of time to read" then ok. But if he looks at it and says, "hmmm, maybe this does have something to do with the current downswing," then I am glad I could help.

[lakerboy]

no for sure i have been playing too many games and that happens when you think you cant lose- i will be more selective from now on

[ol'Tex]

well spoken hels...

lb, dont let it get you down, you know what you can do, and you know that in this "hobby" losing sometimes is guaranteed. tomorrow is a brand new start. 0-0!

[Shark]

Philly, I played Bulls/Thunder under which hit. Was wondering what u bought with ur sbr points and if it was worth it? Done hijacking Lakerboy.

[phillybadboy]

shark,didn't buy notting yet,,my bad for intergering with thread,phillybadboy

[Look4Cover]

Nobody is asking and this can totally be disregarded, but I like to have an idea of what prop I am going to pick for each NBA game for the day. Then I bet low on the first half of games for the day and see how they are doing before I make my bets for the later games. If the majority of my picks for the first half of the games are looking like they have a strong chance of covering, then I bet low on my second half of the games. If the majority of my picks for the first half of the games are looking like they have a weak chance of covering, then I bet high on my second half of the games. I just my theory of taking advantage of the law of probability. So, I believe in picking on most of the games that are posted for a day.

LB,... I tailed you on all of your picks today and I only lost one unit by doing this. I bet one unit for each of the first 5 props you picked tonight. Then I bet 2 units on each of last 3 props you picked tonight. This aside, bet on Utah -2.5 (2 units) and NOH v GSW OVER 214 (2 units). So, I actually went up 3 units. I know you didn't post for those games, but I felt strong about those and by doing so I took advantage of the law of probabilty.

Of course, there are exceptions. If there is a really obvious winnable prop earlier in the day, I'll bet 2,3 or 5 units on it.

GL tomorrow, LB. I'll be lookng for your picks.

Hey Dynamite

No idea, she is a cheerleader for the Sharks Rugby side in South Africa

Beautiful indeed

[dimon]

what's up people...where are you? couple rough days means nothing...LB keep up good work my man

[maseda17]

Personally, the quietness is appreciated. There are a LOT of people that follow LB that aren't outspoken people posting throughout his thread. Any intelligent capper acknowledges there is a big asset on this board. I am glad to see that the clutter is minimized with a couple sub par LB nights. I find those games I am already on, and LB is on them as well are coming through for seemingly every time. I lack the true capping ability that LB and many others on this forum showcase, but I feel my knowledge of what is going on in the league from a national perspective in conjunction with their ability to read lines and trends had put me in a very advantageous position. I hope he is open to doing baseball picks for us this year as well.

[michalis]

start a fresh thread lb, for a fresh start, good luck if you are betting tonight

[lakerboy]

Guys im on a bad run just fade me and you will still make money. Anyways i wont start a new thread im too stubborn for that. That is just admitting defeat.

[Busterflywheel]

no for sure i have been playing too many games and that happens when you think you cant lose- i will be more selective from now on

I know how that feels..BOL and I know you will make golden calls in the future as you have in the past

admit defeat from/to what?

[JohnAnthony]

Aye, let the ego out the door lakerboy. This thread's too cluttered anyway..

The last 4-5 days have been rough but don't beat yourself up about it, lots of good cappers are on a bad run and the squares have been winning well, but we all know that won't continue, the squares have to get a few chicken dinners at some point but Vegas doesn't give out too many, the tide will turn, keep posting your plays.

This post should set a forum record for most views if you keep this thread till the end of season

I don't know if I'm a good capper but I've been ice cold this week to. We just got to keep on doing our homework and it will payoff as it has in the long run this season. Good luck to everyone on their plays.

[sweetjones55]

I am leaning Knicks -3.5 tonight. The Raptors have been downright terrible ATS on back to back, 2-8. The public is pounding the Raptors yet the line goes Knicks -3 to Knicks -3.5, big RLM. New York played the Raptors on 1/15 and the line was Knicks -2 and the Knicks lost by 8. Now today after that loss the line comes out a whole point higher at -3 with Toronto coming in hot beating LA and Miami? I am thinking this Knicks pick is very strong.

Knicks -3.5 LOCKED

am looking at the total in the Orlando/Boston game. The O/U came out at 187.5 and with pretty even numbers hitting both sides, it has quickly gone up to 190 on some sites. The interesting thing about this is that this matchup has been an under machine, hitting seven straight unders. Boston and Orlando have recently also been under machines, Boston has hit the under in 4 of their last 5 games and Orlando has hit the under in 8 of their last ten games.

Something is up here Magic/Celtics Over 189.5 LOCKED

[sweetjones55]

Knicks line to -4 now, even bigger RLM.

[lakerboy]

I like your tip Masr. Lakerboy don't worry about this temporary down turn . You will soon be on the uptick again.
