Lakerboy NBA thread for rest of Season until playoffs end

[bobspicks]

At the end of the day they are only suggested picks it's up to anyone betting to make up their own minds as to whether they agree with them.

Exactly he was red hot now hes ice cold I wont tail anyone for this reason!!!
I do check his picks and if any match mine I bet it stronger luckily lately we havent agreed much!!!
I wouldnt be surprized if he was given out losers on purpose the way some of these jerk offs act this is exactly why I wouldnt give out picks and couldn't blame LB if he didn't any more!!!
LB and any real gambler knows that streaks happen HOT and COLD and you have to take the good with the bad!!!
LB a hot streak is coming you know it so dont worry about some of these fools and your above this crap you are one of the best Ive seen at this dont let anyone break your spirits bro!!!
GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESS!!!

[parexa]

We have a very interesting card tomorrow with low lines. Perfect time for lakerboy to bounce back with a 6-2 or better record

[SwisherSweet420]

hell yeah lets go. Tomm's card looks great. Lb im leaning Magic +1 and Cavs-1.5. Both look like they should cover and win. Lets see how the line moves and what the public favors.

[paco]

He is gettibg frustrated with this pressure, give tha ***** air to breath

hope hes not doing it on purpose, hell got over this weekend and come back strong tomorrow

[Apexas]

Am I crazy for thinking Sixers -4.5 is really good? I like Cavs -1, too, and it seems that there are others that agree.

I understand I may have to wait until 6:50pm EST tomorrow to get another opinion.

[rumple]

Get em tomorrow lb!

[SwisherSweet420]

line is already moving up to -2. 83 percent of the public is taking cleveland. I had to buy it because Im feeling like it will continue to rise.

[lakerboy]

same sit as last time cleveland was in miami

[sweetjones55]

same sit as last time cleveland was in miami

Different result this time, bank on it.

[SwisherSweet420]

Agreed lb, cavs should play strong enough to atleast win by 3. I bought the ticket at -2 because as I said I feel it will continue to rise because to many people are betting cleveland. Lets go strong this week and get some discussion for the games.

[faansuetow]

It's always good to make ur pick Early if u seriously think the line will change in ur favor and bet the opposite to bank in the middle, this happens mote often in the Nba and I have caught on a few. I was also luck on the NFL today when I had MIN at +4 and then today when I saw one of my book drop the line to -2.5 for Saints I bet on it and Luckily caught the middle and $$$$ on both sides!! You all know how crucial 1 or 2 points mean in NBA, that's also why I have multiple book that I follow

[SwisherSweet420]

Also even though 83 percent of the public is taking Orlando and the make the spread stay even but the pay out value has gone up for magic and gone down for grizz. As you said in the other forum they want people to think that Grizz are favorite to take your money. Let me know what you guys think.

You guys need to be very careful on this game. Public is pounding Orlando but fact is that Memphis is 6-4 SU their last 10 vs Orlando and that is when the Grizzlies were downright horrible. Memphis is a completely different team and has the 2nd best record in the western conference since mid-december, this team is no fluke. If Orlando couldn't beat Memphis when they had a horrible squad why should you believe they would win now when Memphis is the hottest home team around and Magic are just above .500 on the road.

[SwisherSweet420]

Whose gonna stop howard on the grizz? Marc Gasol. I mean vince carter rashard howard they come out strong with alot of people who can score and score big. We will see tomm how the lines continue to move.

[mkasad23]

im leaning heat and grizzlies really hope we r on the same page for these 2

[mkasad23]

grizzlies are a completely different team they deff have what it takes to contain howard

Memphis can score also my freind, they are the 4th best scoring team in the league I believe. Mayo, Randolph, Gay, Conley, Gasol are all very capable of 20+ point games nightly themselves. You take a shot at Marc Gasol but IMO he is by far the most under-rated player in the league right now. He averages 15 and 10, shoots 60%, and plays solid defense averaging almost two blocks as a second year player. He will be an allstar in the near future, mark my words.

[SwisherSweet420]

Very true I will watch the line but no one on that team can stop Howard. Im sorry if he plays like a man he will dunk all day on gasol. It will be a fun game to watch regardless.

LB isn't giving out bad picks on purpose. By reading this thread, I've figured out much of what he uses to pick, and I've come to many of the same conclusions he has. It's been a bad weekend for line/trend watchers, and I wouldnt be surprised if the books haven't been doing well this weekend either on NBA.

[djcliks]

im liking orlando and heat tomorrow.........any opinions on the other games?

[yayer]

Right now I'm leaning Orl/Mem under. Both teams can potentially score but Memphis plays whatever their opponents' style of game is, and Orlando like to keep it mid range in the 185-200 area. This is because they focus on both defense and offensive strategy while other teams just go for broke (Phoenix, GS, etc) and try to light up the scoreboards. In their last 5 games, which spans 3 years, they have gone under 4 out of 5 times against each other, and they have kept the games low whenever they play in Memphis. Orl has gone under 4 times in its last 5, while Mem has gone under 3 out of its last 5.

Just some things to consider.

[djcliks]

I'm leaning magic +1.5 under 204

heat +1.5 over 190

Utah -6 under 220

Wrapped up in a nice lil parlay

[ron.angeles]

hey lb, what are your total leans tom??
are you leaning on the orlando and miami??
thankzzz

I typed I wouldn't be surprized if he did the way some of these people act its complete nonsense!!!
It's like handing out money every day to people in need then when you dont have it to give they complain.
Don't think he would do that but wanted people to think that they shouldn't piss off someone that they are tailing!!!!
This thread has gotton too much attention and is filled with a bunch of questions for him let him have some space so he can breathe!!!
The books always do fine dont worry about them!!!
My advice make your own picks and if you are going to blindly follow anyone man the F up when it loses and dont complain about it.

[cecbo]

I am leaning towards Memphis, Cleveland, and Utah right now. So far, the Cavs are the only one that is on the public side. Let's see how the line changes throughout the day...

cecbo

[paco]

Magic roll, btw , who dat who dat who dat? Lb, u got ur +4, I got saints 2nd half . Both winners!!

[AzNDooM]

Lakerboy, thought Id give you some stats on your past 4 days on handicapping.
Anycase, your 22-22 .500 out of 44 games since last Thursday, January 22nd (this includes NFL). you lost -25U over this span which is pretty much the make up of 4-5 star bets you made which you went 0-3 for. The Games of NYJ/DEN/SAC cost you -28U. Thus, without these bets you would of been positive for the week.

Thus, basically your only down this last 4 days due to poor UNIT management. If you like a copy of the spreadsheet feel free to PM and i will email or post it on SBR. MexicanStallion faired better then you but lead capper for the week looks to be TGOAT at this stage. Keep up your good work and look forward to your plays.

ever look into doing a consensus of guys you follow?

[alamo]

Cavs now +1 The public is all over them but the books continue to let them drift. They opened at -1.5 and are now +1.... I would of thought that this would go the other way. Is there an injury out there to any key Cav?

Go heavy on the Heat, Mo Williams and West are out but that was known when the line came out.

[AzNDooM]

Yeah I have, your on that list. Im looking at a few trends that all the top cappers im following and there are some interesting ones.

Example - LakerBoy is 0-3 in past week when betting on SAC games
MexicanStallion is 0-3 in past week when betting on CLE games

Your data i only kept when you use to do competitions with shoebox, I havent really analyszed it yet as im just getting back into handicapping. Not very good yet but thought Id get all the information I could get before finalising on who's advice I would consider taking and who's I wouldnt.
