    NBA SBR Handicappers (NON-PROS) NBA RANKINGS SYSTEM 2010 - (Rookie Year)

    After 3 months of learning / grinding it the hard way, I have finally decided to release a thread to track my picks. I firstly wanted to say thanks to all the SBR Sharps for getting me to my current form as I was a completely newb coming into this forum. However after months of reading/studying and understanding concepts I think I am finally ready to step up and list my plays in accordance and give you some insight on certain cappers if you plan on tailing, as you'll realise what they're specialities are and how there craft helps you earn the most important thing, $$$.

    Special thanks to Lakerboy, MexicanStallion, Bustabook, Lyon804, Wilforth, Dexter, HoulihanTX, Durrr, Williams22, Kingsr, Paco, SuicideKings, SpreadSniper, Don Logan, Krazey47409, Jon825, og4667, JNic, Darrell74, WillC, Bygspenda, and TGoat.

    In my opinion, these are the top 5 CURRENT Cappers I am tailing and for very good reason. They are as follows and my POWER RANKINGS of EACH Cappers are dependent on current streak and overall knowledge.

    1) Krazey47409 - Anyone that has followed this kid knows hes the real deal. Starting w/ $20 dollars he raised up it to approximately $400 in a span of a month and is all walk. You do the mathematics and the kid is in current form with a REC of 42--23--1 +$1708.00 he shows consistency and is the equivalent to the DALLAS MAVERICKS. Watch this kid and follows his plays and anytime he calls you out and challenges you to a HEADS UP on betpoints, my advice... RUN!

    2) Williams22 - I had a chance to speak to this kid personally and not only does he got brains, hes got good work ethics/balanced lifestyle and knows his shit inside out. Going from a moderator and managing Crediting/Debiting BOOK Reports this kid is proven and not only runs formulated opinions, he runs with statistics and is pretty good with he numbers and is one CRAZY ASS Data Analyst. In his own recent thread, hes gone up 50+ Units Averaging an approximately 62% HIT RATE. He is very calculating and doesnt play for the hell of it, as you can tell he plays with what makes him $$$, his last call DENVER 4U shows that even with a board of 8 games or more, he is willing to only run the one game whereas on days with a board of 3 games, he can have up to 3 CAPS. The kid is diversed and is very knowledgeable which is why he will go far in handicapping, his downfall - he is bias with CLEVELAND ^^. However, having said that he is the equivalent to LEBRON JAMES at the moment in handicapping. Thus why he is ranked number 2 at the moment.

    3) Lakerboy - Do i need to say anymore. The people's Champ has proven off and on again that he knows how to make $$$. Although not as consistent as the above the cappers his understanding of RLM and his experience in able to handicap any game and any sport is proven. He has proven that he can handle swings going from a subpar 100U to now 180+ in the last month shows that he has no fear and that when he has gotta that FEELING, you should BEWARE. He can learn you BIG UNITS in a hurry however if you cant handle the SWINGS of his streaks, then you should stare clear. You can say he is the Kobe Bryant of capping where he doesnt perform at peak but hes CLUTCH. He'll hit the big games when it matters most and why hes the PEOPLE's Champion.

    4) Jon825 - I have yet to see this kid call a SIDE Bet on any sport but I can tell you when it comes to O/U, you better know this kid is the specialist and the best there is in this field. A proven track record of 200+ units in this niche market shows he is no JOKE and a REC of 18 -- 9 --1 +$835.00 of PLAYS OF THE DAY shows hes consistent as with a hit ratio of 66%. Although he is on a bit of a COLD/MEDIOCRE RUN of late he will catch on fire eventually and will show you why you don't ever question his O/U Plays.

    5) MexicanStallion - I started my ROOKIE Days watching this guy cap and when he was at his peak, this guy could easily take on all 4 of the above cappers combined hands down by himself. At one stage, his hit ratio was 80% over a large sample of plays and man... he would hit like there was no tommorrow.
    However, his streak of late has gone mediocre, I still believe him to be the consisent rock and will easily earn you $$$ over time as hes a proven track record of 48--29--3 $1896.00 of PLAYS OF THE DAYS and he is probably one of the most active in SBR Forums. If you havent heard his name around then your still a ROOKIE and need to read more as is probably the best manners etiquency of any SBR Sharp around in these forums and one of the most respected.


    Finally, There are a few new kids on the block on SBR who I have noticed who are blossoming into PRO Prospects for Handicappers. Thus I suggest to keep an eye on the following:

    1) KeyElements - New on the circuit but reading his stuff shows hes got fundamental theory and knows wtf hes on about. At the moment, hes got my Tyreke Evans Award for Handicapping and can easily show he can take this title hands down uncontested.

    2) WillC - If you read as much SBR Forum as I do you'll realise this ROOKIE has alot of shot calls on different variety of sports. Noticeably for me is his NRL plays which he has been highly accurate. Comparing him to the Brandon Jennings as hes got the potential to be one helluva Capper at the way hes capping at the moment.


    As inregards to Veterans you will definitely want to visit these two ROCKS

    1) DEXTER - He may not have the most attractive stats but he is always on calling games and can cap pretty consistently in MLB/NCAAB and NBA. He has creativity coming up with his own AutoBet systems, although some might argue against his logic at least he has shown some inititiative to design his own concepts and plays unlike others. As of late, his capping skills have improved and just watch when his capping skills hit 65% (YES I SAID IT) as he seems to be watching more games/films logic in his plays and I can see values tailing him.

    2) HOULIHANTX - This guy is the king of GRIND and like DEXT has been at this alot longer then any other VETERANS around the block. Consistency is his middle name and he can cap anything regardless of difficulty. He has experience and if your like making money over a long plan this guy is your ticket.
    Tail him if you dont want to lose too much money but your willing to earn some bread over a few months. He's not going to make you rich like the other 5 TOP CAPPERS in a month but man... he'll make sure your on the +VE side of the cash flow.


    Anycase, this is just my opinion and hopefully it'll help out other cappers.

    Kobefanatic, yes you can, you just need to donate 15 betpoints and post any pick you want for PLAY OF THE DAY. its why its there.. the reason for donation is due to the high end of administration and painsake for me to track everyones records.

    How can I not, you've peaked at 200+ units and you're proven. Although Ive learned you play some games just from watching Interviews/gut feelings however in my opinion those are factors and variables that matter in handicapping just as much as stats are. as its like poker, you can read people's emotions and you'll know if that team will shows up to play.

    I would remove you from the list if you get COLD, but there's no one whos going to argue against how you've regrown up to a 100+ units in the past month. Hence, why your ranked 3rd.

    why would you be surprised to see your name on the list? you have been the most succesful nba handicapper on this site all year.

    thx adoom - 65% over the course of a few weeks perhaps....but thats not an attainable % for anyone over the course of a season unless you play moneylines.

    This thread is so true. I also joined SBR at the same time as u AZN and man I can write books on what I have learned in just 2 months from the guys above. Thx for the help and congrats on a great yr so far. Lets keep it going and kill these playoffs.

    Another honorable mention should go to Wilforth, that guy always has sharp angles on shit I've never even thought of. Thx

    Nicely done Azn. For those who don't know, Azn tracks every user listed in this thread plus many more, calculates his own capper power ranking of sorts, and uses it to help him determine what picks to tail.

    PS - I would like an explanation why equivalent to Lebron = #2

    Also, if LB is the equivalent of Kobe, does that mean he's liable to go off on his team (his followers) at any moment? J/k LB

    Cause at the moment, your ratio of Units earned in such a small time is equipvalent to the number of points LB puts up in a game. Hence why the equivalency. As inregards to the caps, yeah, using the same system as Sangarin Rankings to determine power co-efficency's due to records based only. A little time consuming but with time it will be easier to track once I open a thread where everyone lists there picks with units based.

    And yet Lebron leads the league in scoring while Kobe is 4th...

    To clarify, not arguing at all about my rank, but if krazey is #1, then he is Lebron

    Hey Lyon, I apologise as this is just how I am rating the cappers at this stage. You are nonetheless one of the top cappers but I havent had a chance to track your bets besides that in the Best Thread. The ones listed have listed Units wagered and there initial outlay on bets hence why they have a write up.

    If you have a thread I dont know about let me know cause at the moment I cant find your picks.

    Hey man.. Guess what?.. I was just yanking your chain anyhow. I am not a pro and do not have a thread. I try to place a best bet in your thread everyday and pretty much have. I was just messing with you since I am currently 3rd overall in your thread. I have been on a sick run the last 2 weeks.

    Yeah you have and you have made some SHARP Plays. I still remember where it was SAS, where you called the ML. Was a great call. Hopefully your streak continues.

    I learned a long time ago in order to be trully good at this there are some things that just can't be capped. You really have to step outside the box and see what's logical and possible and why is it so. There is so much more to this game than just knowing the stats and numbers.

    Another thing... You have to learn to switch gears in this game. I have capitalized lately off just being a "square". So much of what has happened in the NBA lately has been very predictable for the public bettor as many of the better teams that value the wins for playoff puposes are winning and covering the spread. I caught that trend a while back and have capitalized on it lately. There is not alot that has happened lately that you need to be sharp about. I will continue to ride the wave until I get knocked off and then I will revaluate what's going on. It's that simple. Not to mention there has been many sweet spots lately that have been dependale.. Ex.. bet against Dallas at home, Take Nets as DD road dogs, Fade NO, Fade Boston at home,...etc..etc.. Some of these trends have been in motion for quite some time and are worth betting over and over again... Sometimes it looks hard or risky to do so, but that's were the money has been lately and I will continue to do so until I get drilled.

    Funny how you noticed those trends and I have added those variables similar to Dexter's Autobets. You think like a trader in the sense that you ride the wave until it gets cold in addition you reassess the games based on each individual case by case, I like the way you mentioned those trends as those are the ones Ive actually picked up, example - GSW when at home, OVERS are a tendency, CHI at one stage when on road take if dog of +5 or more points (Now I would Fade CHICAGO under all circumstances till injuries are not so depleted) etc...

    In addition on how of changing gears, im assuming your using a poker anaysis standpoint as I noticed that as well. Its best to take both ends and assess which is the better situation, example - Public/Sharp bets etc...

    glad to see you see what I see and im glad im learning to have the visions as that is the hopes of what i hope to achieve after continually drilling these SBR Forums.

    ^^ - At least I know im in the right direction

    Sup SS!! Just a large puzzle that we are putting together here. Nothing more than that. I am in sync more right now than ever before and I actually believe they are playing the games right now in order for me to make money Lately, when I have been wrong I still get bailed out. There is nothing better than being lucky and hot at the same time. Never before has it happened, but it is quite a ride. It's like having your own personal ATM machine at your disposal.


    Let, me give you an example of luck... Saturday nite TOR/GSW game. GS was leading at half by 6 and I really thought Toronto would come out and make a statement in the 3Q has this is GS worst Q over the season.. I truly believed GS would give up the lead in the 3Q and make a nice comeback in the 4Q as Toronto's worse quarter this year has been 4Q especially on road and GS plays well and makes combacks in 4tQ... Well, I was wrong GS smoked Tornonto in the 3rd leaving GS +.5 for the 4Q with little value in 4Q since they were up DD and most likey would give some back right? Well, Toronto and GS was back and forth for winning the 4Q the whole time and Toronto was actually up by 3 in the 4Q late on GS last possesion. With 2 seconds left in the game and shot clock winding down Curry puts up a 3 that goes in and it makes the 4Q a tie and I win by the +.5... That's luck brother..
