    Basketball Parlay of the Day Contest - Friday, 4/4/08
    Starting Tuesday (April 1), we will start a new April Hoops Parlay Contest with a prize of $250 account at 5 Dimes, 3 time roll-over. Last place will receive a $25 5 Dimes account with a 3 time roll over. If there is a tie for last place in both units and game-by-game record (15 parlay minimum), there will be NO last place prize.

    *IMPORTANT*
    All players must have an account at 5 Dimes prior to making picks Sign up here

    Before participating, players must PM their 5 Dimes account ID to SBRforum Staff


    1. Check in the NBA BASKETBALL HANDICAPPING FORUM each day for the daily thread to be posted by LT Profits. Lines will be posted by 1:00 p.m. (ET) each day. Plays may be posted before that, but the official posted lines will be used for grading.

    2. Posted spreads and totals are the only eligible plays for grading, no Money Lines or Halves allowed. NBA, NCAA Men's and beginning April 1, NCAA Women's games included.

    3. Two-game parlay picks, laying 10 to win 26. Post entire parlay at same time, no open parlays.

    4. Here’s the catch: Your play must include a write-up! The write-up does not have to be long, just a sentence or two about why you are making your play. If need be, please refer to prior month's contests for examples.

    5. Entries that are past-post or do not have analysis for both games will be NO ACTION. Once your two-team parlay has been posted, you CANNOT change either play. Any edited post will count as a LOSS! If you make a mistake (such as leaving out "Over" or "Under" or not clearly stating your selection), need to add analysis or wish to enter corrected lines, do so in a separate post. This holds true even if the first game on the schedule did not tip off yet. It also holds true for past-posts and entries with no analysis. It does NOT hold true for posts that are not parlay selections, i.e. standings, commentary posts or congratulatory posts.

    6. And here’s the fine print:

    • Must be 18 years of age or older to participate.
    • One entry per household and IP address.
    • Must use lines posted in daily thread by LT Profits
    • Maximum one parlay pick per day, minimum 15 parlay plays required to be eligible for monthly prize.
    • Tiebreaker for first place - Win % of individual parlay legs. If still tied, combatants will carry on a head-to-head parlay match until winner determined.
    • All decisions made by SBR with regards to this contest are final.
    • SBR employees eligible to participate but are not eligible to win the monthly prize.

      Tulsa -3.5 and Over 143 or so Bradley would not have covered if this was the line in the first game @Tulsa. Game would have gone under this line too, but I think last game showed that the offenses have figured the defenses out.

          554 Atlanta Hawks -1½ tough game to call, but i'm leaning to the Hawks

          558 Memphis Grizzlies Under 231½ nothing more than a guess here

              Atl -1.5: phi might be rolling but atl is killing at home and every game for atl is more significant for them compared to phi

              Cha Tor 204 Over: tor have been playing in the hundreds while cha is also near the hundreds and with both teams 204 would be reached but not so much

                  NETS/PISTONS UNDER 191: The Pistons have gone Under four straight games with those contests averaging an unbelievably low 166.3 points. The last meeting with New Jersey produced 184 total points.

                  SPURS/JAZZ UNDER 197: The last 21 meetings in Utah have not surpassed 192 points, and these teams scored 188 pooints in the only other meeting here this year.

                    SA/UTAH under 197
                    San Antonio will slow down the Utah offense by slowing down their offense.

                    Houston Rockets -9½
                    Seattle gave up a long time ago so I am not worried about back to back for Houston.

                          Utah -3, great home record, plus Spurs are not a dominant road team this year

                          NJNets +8.5, Pistons might rest starters again

                                Bradley Over 143½
                                Pretty quick pace, defenses junkier than the offenses. Look for the OVER.

                                Utah Jazz Under 197
                                These teams match up well. Pretty even defense vs offense here to slow down the game I believe. Look for the UNDER.

                                  Bradley +3.5 and over 143.5

                                  Think the Braves are the better team and the 1st two have gone over the total.

                                    Both teams trying to improve their playoff seeding. Going with the team thats playing better.

                                    Pacers/Bucks Over 222.5
                                    Both teams can score in bunchs, while neither team plays defense.

                                      #554 ATL -1.5 : Hawks seem to be jellin' with Bibby now, plus they need to hold off the Nets and Pacers for the 8th spot.

                                      #563 Indy pk : the Pacers have a long shot at catching the Hawks with roughly 6 games left.

                                          Detroit has allowed over 90 points once in their last 5 games (105 to the Suns) and the most they have allowed on the road since March 1st was 97. Under is 19-12 when the Nets play a team with a winning record.

                                          570 Hou/Sea U 198 Houston slows down the game and controls it with defense. Houston under is 9-7 vs losing record. Seattle under is 24-16 vs winning record.

                                            Antonio Spurs +3
                                            revived championship team against an inconsistent (great @home, ugly on the road) jazz team. spurs are on the surge. watch out!

                                            Dallas Mavericks/Los Angeles Lakers Over 208
                                            both teams know the only way they will beat each other is by scoring more than the other.

                                              detroit -8.5 detroit is a solid 10 points better here. lay them.

                                              san antonio +3 everything points to utah so I'm going the other way. Vegas can be wrong fish.......

                                                Char/Toronto Over 204, two high powered offenses with the Raptors scoring triple digits in their last 4 games and Charlotte consistently scoring triple digits

                                                GSW/Memphis, over 231 1/2 GSW all offense no defense and Memphis very similar with little defense to stop GSW from goin on an absolute tear and extremely fast paced teams that consistently drive down the court to the basket or set and shoot early on in the shotclock, scores should be extremely high

                                                  Detroit Pistons -8½ -- Last two games detroit has won by over 10 points and I think that continues

                                                  Golden State/Memphis under 231 1/2 -- Last two games have not reached this number....I forsee one slow quarter tonight.

                                                    Houston/Seattle under 198 - Seattle will struggle to score and houston should just coast to an easy win keeping this under the number

                                                    Dallas/LAL under 208 - Both teams capable of playing solid D, and this should be more of a half court battle to stay under the number

                                                      Rockets -9.5: Seattle sucks and the Rockets should still cover on the road here.

                                                      Dallas/Lakers Over 208: I think LA gets back on track tonight, and Dallas isn't good against teams with winning records.
