"THE BODY" Knows NBA: Official Picks

[curious]

kinda sad that this guy bumps his own thread and has a weird obsession with SJ

I don't care if he has sex with SJ, his record is 8-3-1 on the spread.

[Avon Barksdale]

no it's not.. he's played 2 or 3 ML's.

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

no it's not.. he's played 2 or 3 ML's.

Avon, you are INCORRECT. I have played one ML before today and I DID NOT count it toward my w/l record. This was CLEARLY stated in a previous post. It's obvious you don't read my thread. Curious is correct, I am picking over 72% ATS right now.


nba to date: 8-3-1 72.7% (+7.1 units)

[Avon Barksdale]

because you post your record of 11 plays in every thread under every post of yours like it's impressive...

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

My record is completely legit and documented. My w/l record includes ZERO ML plays. It is what it is.

you have made 11 plays!!! My blind grandma could get lucky on 11 plays and hit 72%. Lets see your record in a month after a larger sample size. Not saying you won't be good in the long-term, but come on 11 plays and you're bragging about 72%.

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

coming up on gametime. this is the last time I will be repeating tonight's picks:


Heat at Blazers +5 (X1) LOCKED
Knicks at Lakers -290 ML (X2) LOCKED


nba to date: 8-3-1 72.7% (+7.1 units)

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

Lebron is clearly the best player in the game and we lose a TOUGH one as the Heat go on a 9-2 run to force OT. We lose with the Blazers and win with the Lakers. Overall a good night as we lose our 1 unit play, but win our 2 unit play for a 0.9 unit net.


nba to date: 8-4-1 66.6% (+8 units)

[J-Money-BR]

BODY!!! it's tough to lose a tough one!!

[curious]

no it's not.. he's played 2 or 3 ML's.

What difference does that make? A win is a win. If you lose a ML play, if it is a big fav you lose a ton of units.

I get so sick of this ******* bullshit about how only spreads count because money lines blah blah blah.

I know gamblers that only play one or two plays a day and go big on them, >$10,000 per play. What difference does it make if the dude only has 11 plays?

I don't see where he brags. Stating your record is not bragging, is it?

I'm cantankerous and I never stick up for other people, but this is just stupid.

[Avon Barksdale]

I didn't say anything about it being bull shit or not counting, but it is a fact that picking ML's is much easier than picking spreads.

[J-Money-BR]

Body, instead of sugar coating ur losses by callin them TOUGH losses, maybe u can start pickin better picks against spread. For example clippers were only favored by -3.5 points, they won by 14. NOH were under dogs by 5 pnts but won by 9. U say u lost a tough one, but alot of ur wins were close ones too. I thought u said when u first started this thread that u wont b makin up excuses. So DONT!

Grow up. Keep it up Jesse.

[BetaB]

Bol today

[BillyGoat]

Good luck today "The Body".

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

Fellas, I appreciate the support! JMoney appears to be bitter for some reason. Perhaps he should start his own thread I apologize if it appeared I was "sugarcoating" a loss. I will have at least one play later today.

In summary we are now up 8 big units in a short period of time!

[J-Money-BR]

Lol! Got nothin to b bitter bout! I think we both know who is the bitter one after u got dominated in the last couple of days. ATS u r only +4 units, but u decide to count ml units which is another +4 in ur unit record. It doesnt make much sense that u dont count ml bets in ur w/l record, but u do count it for units. once again, Please stay consistent!

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

It makes PERECT sense that I don't count ML in my win and loss record. If I did, it would skew my percentage. I can obviously pick games at a much higher % if I go for big ML favorites. So if I did that, I would have a REALLY high winning % and it would be deceptive to my audience.

However, its perfectly logical to include ML in my UNITS total as these are actual plays that count for something.

[J-Money-BR]

Makes absolutely no sense. U r skewing ur units record just like ud skew ur winning %. Counting ml units have same effect as far as deceiving ur audience!

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

Makes absolutely no sense. U r skewing ur units record just like ud skew ur winning %. Counting ml units have same effect as far as deceiving ur audience!

Incorrect. W/L record should be held at a constant....with the spread in place it's basically a 50/50 proposition. However, I VARY my units even with ATS games, so I may bet to win 1 unit or I may bet to win 5 units. So because I am already VARYING my units ATS, it makes sense to include ML units into my UNITS total.

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

Grizz at Bobcats +3 (X1) LOCKED
Rockets at Celtics -440 ML (X1) LOCKED

nba to date: 8-4-1 66.6% (+8 units)

[cblackgold]

Can you tell why you picked the Bobcats +3 please?

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

bump for the evening crowd:

Grizz at Bobcats +3 (X1) LOCKED
Rockets at Celtics -440 ML (X1) LOCKED

nba to date: 8-4-1 66.6% (+8 units)

[adam3248]

i think grizzlies are the play

[cblackgold]

that's why i was wondering his reasoning behind his pick

[snapperman2]

i think grizzlies are the play

Charlotte Bobcats are leading 38-22 now.

[cblackgold]

Yes WTF, how can you call the bobcats to win ? according to stats and missing wallace how do you call a +3 just for being the home team??

[J-Money-BR]

ha!! maybe now THE BODY will agree to seperate ML units from ATS units!

[money2make]

Faded Body and lost horribly. Good pick!

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

Faded Body and lost horribly. Good pick!

Faded THE BODY?!?! In the future, fade SJ, not THE BODY. THE BODY is picking close to 70% ATS.

[Jesse "THE BODY"]

Summary-

won ATS, but lost the ML bet. -3.4 units

Already have a play or two in mind for tomorrow. Stay tuned!


nba to date: 9-4-1 69.2% (+4.6 units)

[yassen28]

Why -3.4 U as you play 1 Unit each ?

[cblackgold]

THE BODY my man, can u give a brief explanation on how you choose your picks? If that't not possible can you explain why you pick an underdog for tomorrows games (if you pick an underdog). Thanks!!
