    Phoenix -8 was the perfect trap

    I was confused why Portland was a 8 point underdog after beating Orlando at home... looks like books tricked public into thinking Suns would have a big win.

    It was the only full game I watched yesterday (Orlando vs Portland). Does anyone else watch tapes/a lot of games before making their bets? It seems a hell of a lot easier to predict lines when you see performances rather than statistics and assumptions from 'highlights'.

    The Bigglefairy watched this game, and took Portland if its all the same
    For they own this series and Phoenix struggles against good defensive teams
    And they played so well last night that to go against them would by no means
    By no means be a smart investment I say
    I say I say Good day good day

    good work johon.

    watch the film. this is how you win in nba gambling. thats how you win in the playoffs while all the statistics guys are sitting on the sidelines in the playoffs because they're not sure what will happen

    It's always easy to say that in hindsight...

    That being said, I was on Portland.

    I wanted to hammer the Suns ML juice and all but something didn't add up to me. Glad I stayed clear.
