    Thanks to Johnny, Nashy, Laker and others for posting their NBA picks

    Been mixing in my own opinion. Right now, it's working.

    Been working a rollover. Knock on wood, been turning a profit, too.

    Will post two basic tips. These are just MY ideas:

    1) Consider the injury adjustments. Sometimes, it's important. Sometimes, the name injuries get factored in too heavily. Example: I swear the Heat are better with a shorter rotation (sans Herro/Oladipo). More shots to Butler, think that might be a GOOD thing?

    2) Shoot for BTCL value. If you like the current # AND you think it has a good chance to beat the closing line, bet it. A portfolio with strong BTCL value is hard to beat.

    There is no way Butler will score like he did vs the Bucks. I’m all over Under 30.5

    Hey, pal. I'm holding a nice Kings series ticket thanks to you.

    +235...and we go to post at virtually 50/50. Can't beat that.

    Playing: Lakers (gm1) +4.5 at GoldSt.

    ...Just don't think GoldSt is that good anymore. Natural flat spot off the 7-game series. Also, feel like Lakers will only be STRONGER than they were in the Reg Season.

    Now that he rolled his ankle in today's game I don't think so either.

    You said that you thought the Lakers would take care of MEM. I bet the series game by game, but I did have a play on Lakers Gm1. So, that was a nice winner thx to you.

    Spot play: Suns (gm4) -4.

    ...Don't think they'll threaten to win the series. But this should be a nice Home Win (IMHO).

    I expect Phoenix to tighten up at home, a lot, they better, they can't shoot much worse.

    I post plays/opinions too but I guess they don't count because I pointed out that fact that you're angling for sexual opportunities with Johnny.

    That's okay, because your opinions don't count either since they're largely colored by your desire for sex with Johnny.

    Now you may return to your regularly scheduled programming... you know, grooming Johnny for sex.

    Another unit on Lakers +5.

    It's not so much that I believe in the Lakers. I just expect Davis to show himself. And I think Gold St is over-priced.

    I will be watching Looney. Is this guy emerging?

    Chucky, please give me the respect I deserve. Just because you don't see me as naive and gullible, and thus not an ideal target for your exploitative tactics to curry sexual favor, doesn't mean I'm not worthy of praise in other arenas, such as the sportsbetting market this forum was designed for.

    Do the right there here, Chucky. Put your pants on, pry your lips from Johnny's posterior, and dab me up.

    Heat have been white-hot. Think they cool off in coming games.

    Randle must be pretty healthy. Big game.

    Wonder if Butler will be ready to go for Game 3. Really think Butler/Heat displacement factor has to be about the biggest adjustment in this year's Playoffs.

    Playing: Knicks (gm3) +3 (at Miami)

    ...Line looks like Butler will play. I'll concede him playing. Even with Butler playing, I think the Knicks are value.

    yes

    Brunson didn't even participate in game 2 till the 3rd quarter

    now that the Heat's run ended... a losing streak will appear!
