    Basketball Parlay of the Day Contest - Sunday, 4/6/08
    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.

            Den -12: they just lost to the spoilers of the west and just like houston their next opponent is their favorite opponent. den have been constant in giving sea blowouts and it would only be a let down if they are unable to bounce back big time from the lost and if they also loose this they do not deserve to have a playoff spot but they deserve it thus they will stifle sea with a win that more than covers the spread.

            Mil Ind 218.5 Under: the score might hover in the 100s or high 90s but it would lack in the end to give the under the win.

              Lakers have lost last 5 ATS while Sac has won last 4 ATS

                  Sac +8 Too many points to give at home to a team that has played better as of late. Game should be close and Sac could squeak one out on the ml.

                  Lac +8 LA has been scoring some points as of late and should keep this one closer than the 17 point rout in their first meeting. Houston should win the game but by no more than 4.

                    512 New Orleans Hornets -6 - cp3 will shred the warriors up with their lack of defense

                    504 Phoenix Suns -5½ - must win for the mavs but they do not match up well with the suns

                      Miami Heat Under 174.5
                      This just seems to be the trend when Miami and Detroit play each other. Both teams run slow paces, and I can't see them playing too heavily as Miami's hopes are gone and Detroit is just in a resting phase going through the motions of the rest of the season.

                      Portland Trailblazers Under 177
                      Two slow teams again going at it. San Antonio's defense should drastically slow down the game.

                      Hope my UNDERS hit =]

                              #504 Phoe -5.5: the Suns are on ABC so maybe they will try to showboat and win.

                              #512 N.O. -6: the Hornets are still trying to prove they are the best team in the West, i look for a statement at home.

                                        Nuggets -12: Last time they played it was the 168-116 game. Nuggets need to get back on track in the west after last night's loss as well. Sonics have lost 16 of their last 17 games.

                                        I hate doing this but I can't find another good NBA pick I like but..

                                        Stanford women's +8.5: Backing Candice Wiggins, the winner of the Wade trophy - which i just looked up because i had no idea and i could care less - but it goes to the best women's NCAA D1 player in the country for the season. UCONN won this meeting by 12 back in November, but Stanford is a much improved team, winning 31 of 33 since then.

                                              504 Dal/Pho U 217 Dallas slows this game down in the 2nd half to keep the Suns under control.

                                              517 LAL -8 The Kings are still very banged up and played a fast paced game last night against the Nuggets and now play another fast paced high scoring offense that had a day off.

                                                Lsu +4.5 - There is an advantage at center and a head start with the points. Revenge!
                                                Sacramento Kings - Home team with points. I'm buying here.

                                                  no more playing around with these two teams. dd win both over their opponents.

                                                    Sacramento +8: The Lakers have burned me when I've bet on them in games like this. I've lost going against Sacramento. Time for a change. It helps that Sacramento has been playing better, and hard, too.

                                                    Denver-Seattle U230: The Nugs can score 115-120, although that's not a guarantee. Can Seattle get 110-115? Sure, but I'll take my chances that they won't.

                                                    (I know this means nothing, but I'd like to think that I have a solid reputation around here. With that said, my parlay for today, which I liked more than most this year, was GS-NO U221 and PHX -5. I could still lose the Phoenix -5 in real life, but that looks good at the moment. Oh well.)

                                                      Now that LT has opened the door for Womens Parlays, (D.W.) wants to play.
                                                      And after yesterday's N.C. disaster parlay, whom am I to argue with her?
                                                      So here goes:

                                                      LSU: + 4.5
                                                      Just lost to Tennessee 61-55 in the SEC Tournament.
                                                      Looking for Fowles to have another great game.
                                                      Will it be enough?

                                                      Lakers: -8

                                                      Still looking for the top spot out there in the West.
                                                      Have knocked off Portland and Dallas, since the return of Gasol.
                                                      Lakers roll tonight!
