    Williams22's NBA Thread
    So after staying away from gambling much lately I've finally bitten the bullet and cashed back in. I just got word that I'll be working in Las Vegas starting this summer instead of NYC. Why does that matter? My cost of living will be 45% lower, meaning I now have even more cash to toss around than I had thought.

    Anyways, I'm going to use this thread to track my picks. Don't tail, I'm not good enough. Don't fade, I'm not bad enough. Always feel free to discuss or debate my picks

    Tonight:
    Cavs -5.5 - 2 units
    Blazers +3.5 - 2 units
    Mavs +3 - 4 units

      Does this mean your best bet thread will be gone? You know it takes alot of time to gamble and you might not have time left to do the other.

          Nah, don't worry. I have always been capping games anyways and just betting points on them. I would never post picks that I don't have real money on myself though, which is why I didn't post before.

              There are numerous cost of living calculators you can find online to compare one city to the next. Living is Vegas means I have no city or state income tax, unlike NYC. Also, real estate is cheap as shit out there right now. Since I was originally hired for NYC, I'm getting paid at a NYC rate, but living at a Vegas cost of living

                Thank you sir. I would have to assume that is sarcasm. I love the faster pace the Cavs will play at without Shaq and Z, especially against lower teams. Also, I expect Mo's new-found confidence to carry over tonight.

                        Really Portland? The offense down the stretch was atrocious. I hope Roy has to watch that on tape over and over.

                        Current record:
                        2-1 +3.8 Units

                          Because you live in New York. I have a cousin who lives out there, and doenst know how to drive. 25 years old. I know It really isnt cost efficient to own a car if you live in the city.

                            Oh no, I'm actually from Vermont and go to school in upstate NY, so I've always needed/had a car.

                              Being from TX, I just really think its funny that people don't even own cars in NY. But I know thats the city life.

                              GL with your thread. Beware tomorrow... A lot of OVERs cashed today.

                                        Should have got this one sooner, but I think it should still be okay.

                                          My largest play of the day:
                                          Memphis -2 - 5 units

                                          Memphis has been playing well on the road and the Knicks are due for a letdown after a tough win last night. Also, Gasol and Randolph should have a field day inside.

                                                    Thanks LB. I'm rooting on the Warriors for you, but they look lost out there right now. 2nd half under should be a good play I'm thinking.

                                                        I hope Steph Curry gets the hell out of there soon. He's too good to be on such an awful team.

                                                        I'm hoping for a 2nd half o/u around 100.

                                                              I cashed GSW -4, 3rd quarter under, and 4th quarter under but unfortunately only played them for points and not money. At least I'm 250 points richer
