    NBA Play of The Day - season-long thread

    Hey guys:

    Decided to do this "thread" style as a way of keeping track of my NBA plays for the season. I will post 1 "Play of the day" each and every day there are games. It's very early, but I'm 3-1 so far this year. Also, I fill in my spreadsheet right after I make a bet, so it's always up-to-date. My play of the day:

    Nuggets/Bobcats, under 203 (-120)

    Good luck to all my fellow wagerers!!!

    Man, I've been cold as hell the past few days. Haven't bet on NBA in a long time and starting to remember why. I've been betting on mediocre teams that are too inconstistent. It's time I went back to betting the "power teams" against mediocre teams. My play of the day:

    San Antonia -4.5 (-120) over Golden State
    NBA Y-T-D: 6-5-1

    NCAAB Play of the Day:

    South Carolina -3.5 (-120) over Richmond

    After an embarassing 0-2 day yesterday, I decided to take a 1-day break from hoops. I played one NFL 2-team teaser which, quite frankly, I cannot see losing:

    Patriots -1 over Bills
    Eagles -3 over 49ers

    I went 2-1 yesterday, covered the Minn/Purdue total by 1/2 pt, New Mexico lost by 10, and got an easy 2nd half under 71 with Iowa/Illinois. I hate going against my Celtics, but they are severely banged up and I'm afraid they'll get blown out tonight. My NBA Play of The Day is:

    Miami Heat pick 'em over Boston Celtics
    Adding Towson/Hofstra, total under 143.5 (-120)

    NBA Y-T-D: 0-0
    NCAAB Y-T-D: 5-1

    I went 1-1 yesterday, hit the college under, lost the nba bet because Miami blew an 11-pt 4th qtr lead and couldn't stop the Celtics from tying the game with 0.6 seconds (yes, 0.6 seconds) left to force OT - besides D-Wade that team absolutely sucks!!! But hey, that's gambling. My NCAAB Play of the Day is:

    Murray State -9.5 (-120) over Tennessee State
    Adding North Texas/UL Lafayette, total under 144 (-120)


    NCAAB Y-T-D: 6-1
    NBA Y-T-D: 0-1

    A pesky 1-1 yesterday, easy winner with Murray State, an extremely tough loss on the under as NT/ULL put up a WHOPPING 90 points in the 2nd half to best the total by 2 points - but hey, I made $455 at the casino in 1-1/2 hours yesterday, so I shouldn't bitch. Anyway, here are my 2 Plays of the Day:

    NBA: Indiana +4 over Minnesota
    NCAA: Butler pick 'em over Wright State


    Y-T-D Record: 7-3 (no more differentiating between NBA & NCAA picks - too much work)

    Three days of going 1-1 (Butler win, Indiana NBA loss) - that's not gonna cut it. Today I have only one play and, if anyone's tailing me, bet heavy. My NCAAB Play of the Day is:

    Rider -1 (-120) over Iona LOSS (note: Rider licks balls and this was a disgustingly bad pick)

    Y-T-D: 8-4


    P.S. Adding Michigan St/Lowa, total under 136
    FL Atlantic -7 (-120) over UL-Monroe

    Went 1-1 yesterday, as the Celtics dominated and Col Poly won by 3 points (I love losing by 1/2 a point - not). Taking a break for a few days to recharge the batteries. Will be back later this week. In the meantime, good luck to all.
