T-Wizzle's NBA Thread

Stupid play but it was only for a unit. I'm looking at tomorrow's matchups and i'm leaning hawks and jazz. My only worry about taking atlanta is that they are one of the teams i trust least and also whenever little has been expected of milwaukee, they've seemed to play their best. I think the jazz will give the lakers a great game tomorrow so i will probably be on them too.

t-wizzle · 05-01-10, 10:17 PM

I'm in a real dilemma here... I want to take the jazz tomorrow and i would really like to take them as soon as possible but i just don't know about this williams injury. I would think he will be good to go but there's just so much unknown with it.

I wouldn't take the Jazz man; Everyone on the Lakers faced a real test in that opening round. Artest faced his greatest defensive challenge of the playoffs, everyone else he guards from here on out will seem like a joke. Bryant was guarded by a top 15 1 on 1 defender in Sefa and still played well. Odom struggled with Green. And the Lakers already experienced playing in a more hostile environment than Utah. Lakers win this series in 5 or 6. The only people not really tested were Gasol and Bynum. Bynum is out I believe, but don't let it fool you, Odom on Boozer is a much better matchup than Gasol on him.

If Bryant decides to guard D will from the get go, the Lakers will sweep this series. Utah might be lucky to get one. I think Fisher will start on him, but I'm pretty sure Bryant is going to ask Jackson to allow him to guard D will at some point, and that is when Jazz backers should start to worry.

I don't know man i just think with it being game 1 that it will be a tight game. That jazz are on a roll right now and know that it would be huge to steal one in L.A. I'm sure that game Friday night took a lot out of the Lakers and now with Bynum out, it will be that much harder for the Lakers to defend Boozer and Millsap down low. Don't get me wrong, I think the lakers win the series and i think they probably win this first game but i think the first one will be very close. I'm liking the jazz +7 and maybe even throwing half a unit on the ML.

t-wizzle · 05-01-10, 10:35 PM

Hawks (-9.5): 2.5 Units
It's a lot of points to lay so i don't think i will go very big on it but atlanta should win this one pretty easily.

Jazz (+7): 2 Units
I need to know Williams' status to put more on this but i think the jazz cover here.

t-wizzle · 05-02-10, 02:25 PM

Hawks cash

I'm adding a unit to the jazz

Utah Jazz (+7): 3 Units

t-wizzle · 05-02-10, 02:35 PM

Make that 4 units

Jazz (+7): 4 Units

t-wizzle · 05-02-10, 02:38 PM

Jazz ML (+320): .5 units

t-wizzle · 05-02-10, 05:18 PM

Hawks and Jazz - two more winners today

Today's Record: 2-1, +6 Units

NBA Thread Record: 18-11-1, +22.81 Units
NBA Playoffs (posted plays): 9-3, +21.25 Units

I'm leaning spurs and cavs for tomorrow night but haven't really thought about it much. I'm kinda wondering why the line is lower in game 2 for cavs-celts than it was in game 1.

t-wizzle · 05-02-10, 09:24 PM

I'm kinda starting to think suns might be the play tomorrow night but i may just stay away altogether. I'm thinking it might be better to watch the first game and get a read on the matchup. Unless you really like a game 1, it's probably a good idea to stay away and take a later game.

t-wizzle · 05-03-10, 01:18 PM

Cavs (-6): 2 Units

Was leaning cavs last night but got a better number today as it dropped to 6. Not in love with this play, but i think cleveland wins by 8-10

t-wizzle · 05-03-10, 09:16 PM

Like i said, wasn't in love with the cavs play. What an embarrassing loss

Anyways, gonna roll with phoenix tonight

Suns (-4.5): 2.5 Units

t-wizzle · 05-03-10, 09:28 PM

Bumping up my play and throwing a unit on the first half

Suns (-4.5): 3.5 Units
Suns 1H (-2.5): 1 Unit

t-wizzle · 05-03-10, 09:58 PM

I feel great about this play only a minute into the game. The suns have the energy and the crowd is as into it at the beginning of a game in phoenix as i have seen in a while. We'll see what happens...

t-wizzle · 05-03-10, 11:06 PM

Suns 2H ML (+105): 2 Units

t-wizzle · 05-04-10, 12:39 AM

I'm brutal on these second half bets

Tonight's Record:

2-2, +.5 Units

Thread Record: 20-13-1, +23.31 units
NBA Playoffs: 11-5, +21.75 units

t-wizzle · 05-04-10, 04:33 PM

Teaser Play Tonight:

Lakers (-1) + Hawks (+13.5): 1.5 Units

4 Team Parlay:

Lakers ML + Orlando ML + Spurs ML + Cavs ML: To win 3.5 Units

Chi_archie · 05-04-10, 04:35 PM

looks like a tantalizing teaser

sweetjones55 · 05-04-10, 05:54 PM

Good luck on your plays tonight.

t-wizzle · 05-05-10, 07:54 PM

The suns played about as well as they could play the other night and san antonio still had a chance to win. This game will be close tonight, i have to decide if I'm willing to take the spurs ML as a play yet. I will most likely not bother with the +3

t-wizzle · 05-05-10, 08:08 PM

Spurs (+3): 1.5 Units
Spurs ML (+140): 1 Unit
Under 206: 1 Unit

t-wizzle · 05-05-10, 08:11 PM

Decided to play the spread because I think the spurs will outplay the suns but the homecourt advantage could mean a suns win. Not going big on this one though, couldn't quite figure it out.

t-wizzle · 05-06-10, 04:00 PM

Missed on my last few plays but nothing big. Haven't had a game i liked since the jazz on sunday.

Not sure about tonight's game yet, might take the over if anything. I think atlanta will put up some more points... I mean they have to shoot better than they did last game. Still, I don't think they have any answer for Orlando's 3-point shooting and howard inside.

t-wizzle · 05-06-10, 04:33 PM

Hawks/Magic Over 190: 6 Units

t-wizzle · 05-06-10, 06:54 PM

My biggest posted play is going tonight. Got this over in earlier when it was at 190 and now the late money is all over it.

This is my biggest posted play so far, probably ended up being the easiest one so far

sportfan · 05-07-10, 01:08 AM

Nice call , the over was quite easy eh?

Sure was

Spurs (-7): 3.5 Units
Under 207: 1 Unit

Good luck on your plays today.

t-wizzle · 05-08-10, 03:35 PM

Liking Orlando tonight. Spurs loss hurt last night. I stopped watching in the second quarter when the spurs were missing free throws and missing an opportunity to add to their lead. At that point I knew my play wasn't looking good because once phoenix crawled back into the game, they weren't going to let up.

t-wizzle · 05-08-10, 03:44 PM

Thinking Orlando wins in a 95-85 type game. Will most likely take the magic and the under, just waiting to see if late money comes in on atlanta.

t-wizzle · 05-08-10, 03:49 PM

Orlando/Atlanta Under 194: 3 Units

t-wizzle · 05-08-10, 03:52 PM

Orlando/Atlanta 1H Under 97.5: 1 Unit

t-wizzle · 05-08-10, 04:07 PM

Final Plays:

Under 194: 4.5 Units
1H Under 97.5: 1 Unit
Hawks 1H ML (+103): 1.5 Units

Way too much late money on atlanta for me to take magic. However, I am still thinking orlando wins this game but atlanta jumps out to an early lead.
