1/17 In-Game Post (all updates here)

Cleveland (-2) down 55-50 at half to Warriors. They should be down by 10-12 the way they played. Thinking tired leg syndrome has set in because they're playing very little D. A risky bet, for sure.

Spurs (+7) up 13 at the half at Miami. Seems like a good pick. Aaaaand a 36-7 third quarter kills that. Great job, Spurs. WTF. I think they hit a legit 14-15 straight 3's. No team in NBA history could have beaten them.

Houston up 7... need them to try to pull away.

Tonight we have learned:

The Cavs are sloppy.
The Pistons are dreadful.
The Spurs are quitters.
The Cavs dominate whenever they feel like trying.

Dallas would be a nice nightcap. My goal is to not fall below .500 but when I do lose, have the lower bet lose.

I'm new to NBA wagers but love it. Like every game is a nailbiter.

Now if I could only stop betting on crappy team vs. crappy team games (CLE/GSW, NJN/GSW).
