I have been reading thru the thread a little and I am troubled to read about all the trends I am hearing about. I see stats for this, stats for that, just about any stat you can think of people here have them.. keep in mind all this has been accounted for in the line. Doesn't mean that the stats that support your plays will not work it just means its not the end all be all to sports gambling. With all that being said I personally don't feel tonites card very good. at least not near as much as some people do. Generally, I don't make it a practice of fading the public blindly or soley but I am considering the approach at the moment. Below, are the plays if the strategy is actually implemented.

Spurs -2
Atl -1.5
Toronto +3
NJ Nets +1.5
Hornets +6
Boston -4.5

Now, I realize that does not look appealing to the readers and contributors to this thread but the cool thing about these games is they are all home teams and they are getting no respect. none whatsoever. Problem with this strategy is there is no mm logic behind it. There is 6 games there and most likey 3 will win and 3 will lose, but if 4 comes off then you have had a nice nite... I don't see the public hitting more than 3 of these games tops. just my 2 cents.. good luck to you fellas tonite.

Lyon - I am a person who likes to see trends for handicapping purposes. As with most things people should not rely on one source. If I like a certain game I look at trends, other people's opinions (Lbs, Pacos, Williams, yours, etc.), and line movements plus a few more factors. If they all point one way, then I will definitely be on it. I try to post trends that apply to people picks. It is just one bit on info.
I think a good trends is Orlando is 8-1 ats last nine against Atlanta.

Hey Lyon, you don't think the Lakers game opening this morning at +2 is an overreaction to Bynum's injury?

Bynum's injury was already accounted for in the opening line. Everyone knew he was gonna be out. He missed last game and there was no chance of him playing in this game.

Line movement doesn't necessarily mean major money came in on the Spurs; especially for Laker games. Major money possibly coming in on the Spurs isn't the ONLY reason that could have caused the line movement.

What do you think caused it

You said especially for Laker games. What do you mean? What causes a line to move in the Lakers favor when they are always a public fave? Unless you think the books are playing games and trying to trick people here which is a possibility IMO.

Yes, I think the books are possibly trying to play games, IMO. But what do I know.

Do you like MSU in this one? They're getting disrespected by damn near every talking head.

I may not know much, but that is not a 62-59 game. But of course, I've been wrong before. Best of luck tonight gentelman. & love the new thread...it should be titled "keep hope alive"

axxL · 03-24-10, 05:50 PM

Guys, im pretty new at this.. started out betting in december and before april last year i hadn't seen a basketballgame since im from Sweden and it's a pretty small sport here.. Anyway, this might be a stupid question but why are the odds at i.e. bodog -115 for the Lakers spread? Are they feeling confident that the Spurs cover and are just trying to collect more juice?

ram1502 · 03-24-10, 05:52 PM

Celtics and Spurs for me tonight. GL all.

Losing Lucas hurts but man this city is so hyped. Izzo is a great coach and we all love him here. I think he'll have them boys ready. What I don't like is ho they let that big lead keep disappearing and almost choked the last game
