    Why do so many people come in here feeling the need to overhype their picks? Make one thread, post all your picks there, and keep an accurate record. That's the only true way to gain respect as a capper here.

    golden state won't win anything tonight.

    dallas just needs that win so much, after these bad games.

    they will make it pretty sure! take the -4.5, blowout coming!

    I think the Mavs come out tonight ready to play. In recent history, I have never seen them play as poorly over a 2 week stretch as they have these last few and with all the trade talk going on by Cuban, I think they come out playing hard tonight and win by +10. Gl though.

    I never like backing the mavs @ home laying chalk but they are worth a look at backing them on the road if the price is right...-4 is right on the cup. I think i'll pass on this one at that price. the entire card could possibly be a pass tonight including ncaa.

    I do like the GS pick tonight, but I don't really see them jumping out quickly. Warriors can start pretty flat at home. More of a second half team.

    This was the same guy who posted a Magic/Celtics thread yesterday entitled, "**GET that OVER 188 while it's still up!!!"

    Warriors are horrible. It's true they show up when playing good teams, but they have like 20x injuries. The line feels a lot lower than it should be. I would stay away from this game, but GL on the play. Agree with William, don't over hype the play.

    Actually, it's not about a game's total that you gave but how you go about your picks. It's how you give it, it seems your shoving it to everybody's throats and with a bit of cockiness at that, it's usually fade material here. Just go on giving your picks and if you can, explain it to us as to why, throwing some facts along the way wouldn't hurt your cause a bit. A little bit of humility and subtleness will go a long way here too...

    BOL on your future plays!

    Exactly. Also, making a thread for each play is unnecessary. Make a season-long thread and make your picks there. If you are winning, your thread will get plenty of action, not to worry. Keeping it to one thread helps people see how you are doing, which helps them make informed decisions with their money.

    I'm not sure what you are asking. Just make a thread as usual and add picks to it each time you make new wagers. Keep a running total either in the thread or in your signature with your W-L and profit/loss in units. For examples, Lakerboy keeps his in his signature while MexicanStallion keeps his in the thread.

    ahh.. by 'editing' the post?... it remains available, because it is always somewhat current if used everyday?

    if so, i will do that immediately. **Thank you for your response and help, it is greatly appreciated.
    i do apologize for asking what appears self-evident to many, it is my first time in a Forum like this.. bm

    i take dallas. i nvr want to go against this team when they r on losing streak. plus maggette is out, i alr see how bad warriors can be without him. n warriors usually have problem with defensive team.

    you can't over hype this play. dallas mavericks are a good nba team, the GSW's are not, simple as that.


    LOOK AT THE LINE ITS A IM JUST WORRIED ABOUT ORLANDO.

    Warriors played Dallas tough in Big D the last. For some reason at home, this team always play people tough.l
