    Basketball Parlay of the Day Contest - Tuesday, 4/22/08
    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.

      #506 N.O. -3.5: Hornets looked solid in game 1, same results in this one probably.

      #510 S.A. -2 : the Spurs know what it takes now, no double OT in this one.

            RAPTORS/MAGIC UNDER 198.5: Yes Game 1 went way Over, but the Under is still 8-2 in the last 10 Orlando games and 6-1-1 in the last eight Toronto contests. Look for the Raptors to slow things down a tad early, so as not to spot the Magic another insurmountable first-quarter lead like in the series opener.

            SUNS/SPURS UNDER 191: I got 192 in real life but it shouldn't matter. Game 1 was at 186 at the end of regulation, and I see an instant replay here (without the overtime part). No team has been able to slow the Suns down like San Antonio, as Phoenix is averaging "only" 95.5 points in the last 13 head-to-head meetings with the Under going 9-4.

              N.O. -4 : Hornets should take this , knowing their troubles in Dallas this is a big game for them.


              Phoe over 191 : Just have to take the over here with such a low total.

                  Raptors over 198.5

                  Dallas +4

                  Mavericks need a strong game to stay in the series. Raptors should hopefully close down on Orlando shooters better, and keep them out of the lane.

                    Dallas/NOK over 193.5 - I think both teams surprisingly have decided to try and push the tempo a bit, I see that continuing in this game and this should get over the number

                    Phoenix/SA over 191 - As good as SA is at slowing down the Suns, I see somewhat of a defensive letdown here as the suns get a little smarter with both what they do with the ball and also their rotation (as in not being so afraid of a little foul trouble) and this gets over the number

                      Raptors +pts

                      After a blowout, the raptors lose this one at the buzzer

                      Suns +pts

                      This is the game that the spurs will point to when they go on an early vacation

                        Suns +1.5-They are clearly the better team, Spurs are going to need many things to happen for them to win this. As long as shaq and amare are foul trouble free, this will be an easy one.

                        NO-3.5-CP3 Chris Paul will have his way again and theirs nothing Dallas can do about it.

                              Hornets -4: Hornets are playing much better then Dallas right now.

                              Magic -6: Orlando takes a 2-0 lead after tonight, and Toronto can't get their act together against Howard and Turk.

                              Also fading wrigley, who is either playing for last place and picking two losers right now, or is just on a very cold streak. Assuming he is going for last.

                                Spurs -2: If the miracle shots don't go down, the refs will find a way to see this cover.

                                Orlando -6: Toronto is utter dogsh!t. I cruised on Orlando -6.5 a couple days back; what's changed?

                                  hornets have best player on either team and beat them game 1 when dirk had a good game which he is not guaranteed to have in game 2

                                  spurs under 191
                                  can't see both teams shooting 50% again

                                          506 New Orleans Hornets -4 CP3 and the Hornets have momentum after their comeback and cover start to finish tonight.

                                          510 Suns/SpursUnder 191 SA slows down the game pace and controls with defense. Since acquiring Shaq this match-up has been low scoring.
