    Legal sports betting only increases interest in the league.

    It would be a good move.

    Why else would we stay up to watch Portland/New Orleans?

    Did you not see the ending? Because I did. NO hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer. He definitely got the shot off before the buzzer, but the score never changed. I had NO +3.5, so it didn't effect me, but I couldn't believe that they didn't count the shot and I was thinking to myself that it was going to screw someone....

    You should have had a W and not a push. Unbelievable.

    ...I have NBA League Pass so I could watch myself get fukked in real time, so that's how I saw the NO ending.

    To be honest -- as I said when I started this thread -- I barely watch the NBA anymore. And you're talking to a three-decade pro hoop junkie.

    The league is just a joke these days. Money has ruined it.

    I hear that... Only thing is I am having a competition with one of my former teammates (I played college baseball) about who's going to have a heart attack first. So, I figure if I watch more of these games, I will be on the right track toward winning that competition.

    I hit the under in the 2nd half of the Clipper game by 4 points.

    With 27 seconds left in a 16 point game, Noah was holding the ball at mid court to run the clock out. Some douche on the Clippers gets all up in Noah's grill hand checking him and swatting for the ball. Thank god Noah passed it to avoid the foul.

    I just knew Chicago was going to hit free throws and then the Clippers were going to get an easy trash bucket at the end up the game.

    I swear some of these players are retarded.

    Why do I continue to bet totals.....

    It literally took like 5 missed free throws, including a technical, in the final minute thirty for me to win.

    Pure luck.

    However, of the last 14 bets I've made there with a "better" line paying -115 juice, I'm now 2-12 (for instance, they're offering +6 -115 with everyone else at +5.5).

    Not sure if that's just a coincidental trend that has nothing to do with nothing, but it's starting to get to be a legitimate sample size.

    You gotta watch that again. He absolutely did NOT get the shot off in time, I have no clue how you missed that if you have League Pass.

    It's basically an inevitability.

    Honestly, if we'd strictly bet Portland at home live at the start of the 4th quarter the past few seasons, we'd all be retired by now.

    Wouldn't surprise me if the Lakers won tonight.

    That's the kind of game the Hawks like to drop.

    I sort of like the Lakers and Knicks tonight. I'm in for a night of pulling my hair out if I bet both or even just one.

    The Lakers are 1-0 against the Eastern Conference for whatever that's worth

    Well, the problem is the number. Hawks should not be favored so heavily. Closed at what, 9.5/10? Too many for the Hawks to lay.

    Never mind. Just went to -110.

    I don't even look at that anymore to be honest, t-wizz. Hope they know what they're doing.

    Hey NC, did you see just how "sharp" the lines were tonight? Almost across the board. Just as sharp as the NO/Sac game total, 1H total, and 2H total from last night. You seem to be into that, and I noticed it tonight. Lets see, tonight the Dal spread and total, Clippers total, Pacers spread, Pistons spread, and especially Raptors spread (splitting that huge line change).
