Okay so after inspiration from LB, Mex, Dex, and a few other sharps here, I have decided to start my own thread. I look up to these guys and have learned a lot from their handicapping to make what I think are "wise" choices now.

Tail or Fade whatever it is feel free to leave thanks and criticisms I can handle it
I'll do my best to do write ups a night before that way I can get a few reviews prior to tip off.

All units are worth $100

Good luck to everyone and may your day be filled with riches!!!!

[manidyon]

ok.. ready to see ur picks 2molo

[lakerfan420]

Play #1
Will wait till last minute to see if line hopefully moves to +6 but play is official.

Miami Heat +5.5
2 Units ($200)



Everyone pounds the Laker's on the road or at home doesnt matter. Why?? They haven't covered for the past 2 weeks till yesterday when they played against a broken Pacers team. Kobe went 5-14 and had a total of 24 pts.. Lately Kobe hasn't been playing well since his return from the injury. He is yet to have a break out game. On the other hand we look at D Wade who is playing in what he calls his "house" Against the Warriors he shot 15-23 and had a total of 35 pts. Fisher and Kobe have been in bad streaks shooting lately and I don't see Kobe having a break out game against the Miami Heat who they have always had trouble with even at home in December. The Heat and D wade are fighting to secure 8th seed in the East right now and will put up a fight against the Lakers. The Heat are 2 games behind number 5 and believe me D Wade will do whatever he has to do to avoid LBJ 1st round of playoffs.

Good luck guys and hope tomorrow is profitable!

I am a Lakers fan but I dont put money on the Lakers just cause their my favorite team. Jinx or not its my first play. Good luck tomorrow

[kingsr]

Hopefully the lakers win by 2 points and that makes you double happy!

[lakerfan420]

Link to my thread for yesterdays picks 3/3/10

just in case anyone was curious how I did for today

[lakerfan420]

Hopefully the lakers win by 2 points and that makes you double happy!

Hahaha a last minute buzzer 3 from Kobe would be nice but we'll see how it turns out I have a feeling I maybe sad as a Laker's fan but happy that I cashed. Good luck tomorrow

[kingsr]

Thanx bro, my line is at 4.5, gonna wait for it to go up, hopefully! Good luck!

[lakerfan420]

it'll get there.. I have a local that usually gives me good lines

[suicidekings]

The Lakers may be 1-5-1 ATS since the ASB, but that included Boston, Dallas, Memphis, and Denver. They still managed to go 5-2 SU in that time. Miami is hardly much better, going 3-5 ATS, with one of those wins being as +10 dogs in Dallas (where the Lakers were +1.5 dogs).

For me, this is going to be Lakers and the Over. The Heat just aren't the team that they have been in the past.

Haha I was just giving you a hard time on the jinx bit. But still... wouldn't it be an even more bitter experience to be a happy Lakers fan but not able to enjoy the win because you lost $? I'm just sayin...

I just never feel confident betting against the Lakers with all of their weapons. Good luck!
What about the Over for this game??

I like the Lakers as well but Kobe and Fish have been in dry spouts... They are having a hard time making shots at home and its not going to get any easier on the road. They are just too unpredictable the way they have been playing lately. I would rather take the points.

I understand why u wouldn't wanna bet against the Lakers but hey you gotta go with your gut! if its my first loss its my first loss haha you can't win them all and I dont expect to be popping crazy picks like LB's and the other sharps.. I am just starting off and will be happy with a positive record . The over looks good but I rarely play totals because every shot feels like a dagger... Unless suns or denver is playing then I will consider totals. Good luck today buddy

I used to shy away from Totals as well, but there's a very good reason why the limits on totals are 1/4 of what they allow on spreads. Even if you're just playing it on paper to start, spend some time on them.

thanks for the advice i'll def. start looking at totals.

[lakerfan420]

all I see is Lakers Lakers Lakers today... either the books are giving out money for charity or a lot of people are going to be upset tonight.

[lakerfan420]

Play #2

Utah Jazz +2 (Bought Hook)
3 Units ($300)

No time for writeup as I have to head to work. Line is just too weird Suns should be favored by at least 4 but instead it opened at -1 for the suns. Jazz will pull out 2nd half and tighten up the defense to hold down the offensive suns. Good Luck!

[lakerfan420]

2-0 for today boys!! also had Miami 2nd half and jazz 2nd half as well but won't count it in my record since they were not posted.

Good night overall hope everyone had a profitable night and its time to move onto tomorrow!

[lakerfan420]

Pick #3
Orlando Magic -10
2 Units ($200)

Magic have been on a roll. Dominating teams 4-5 of their last games by at least 15.. This won't stop when they visit the Nets. I don't believe the Magic will be high off the dominating win off Golden State.. They will continue the roll and crush the nets tomorrow.

[lakerfan420]

Pick #4
Spurs +5 (Buying Hook)
2 units

OKC looking to come back after that humiliating loss yesterday? I don't see that happening against the spurs. Spurs have been playing pretty well lately and have always held down the Thunder. I see the spurs picking up a win on the road but will gladly take the pts.

Pick #5
Suns Warriors Over 246
1 units

Suns were held down by portland yesterday. Steve Nash said that he wanted to push the tempo 2nd half but was unable to. Golden state has recently allowed 150 pts in 2 recent games against teams that usually play D. Add those 2 together + Oracle arena and I see a straight up shoot out. Not worried with 1 bad quarter because between these 2 teams... the over is never dead till its dead.

Pick #6
Suns Warriors Over 124 1st Half
1 unit


Will add more plays later if anything sparks out... leaning Boston but boy do I hate backing them...

[lakerfan420]

Pick 7

2nd half miami nets Under 91.5

1 unit

[lakerfan420]

Pick 8

Northern Colorado -1

1 unit

[lakerfan420]

Miami Under 2nd Half CASHHHHHEEEDD

Spurs +5 with bought hook CASHHHEEEDD

[lakerfan420]

Also had jazz -4 2nd half and under 97.5 but will not make official since the game already started and i was busy

[lakerfan420]

Northern Colorado -1 LOSSSSSS

[lakerfan420]

4-1 today and up 4 units for the day!! unofficial plays was 5-2 total for today 9-3 up 10 units

not getting any love or comments bout my picks but ill keep posting...

[lakerfan420]

6-1-1 overall posting picks... including CBB game I played today

[lakerfan420]

Pick 9
Detroit Pistons -3 Bought hook last night
2 units

Boy do I hate betting on this game but the line just stuck out to me... no write up currently at work

Pick 10
Denver / Knicks Over 110.5 1st half
1 units

I see both teams coming out blazing.. Denver will make up for their loss and knicks? Tmac should be lighting it up like he usually does 1st half.

Pick 11
Clippers +10
2 units

I hate betting the clippers but everyone is expecting Dallas to come out strong and destroy the clippers after their humiliating loss to the hornets... not going to happen.. dallas doesnt like to cover at home and they wont tonight.

Good luck everyone!

[vboyt]

good luck

[lakerfan420]
