    Basketball Parlay of the Day Contest - Monday, 11/03/08
    Starting Saturday (November 1), we will start a November Hoops Parlay Contest with a grand prize of a $200 cash account at BetPhoenix, 3 time roll-over. Second Place will be a $50 account and last place will receive a $25 BetPhoenix 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), the last place prize will be divided equaly.

    *IMPORTANT*
    All players must have an account at BetPhoenix to be prize eligible Sign up here

    To be eligible to win prizes, all players must PM their BetPhoenix account ID to SBRforum Staff NO LATER than 6:00pm ET on Wednesday, November 5!


    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 and NCAA Men's Colege Basketball will be 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. Any player with two edit violations during the course of the contest shall be ELIMINATED FROM PRIZE ELIGIBILITY.

    *-EXCEPTION: If someone edits a post on the last day of the competition in an attempt to get an automatic loss in order to win the Last Place prize, then the player will be credited with a WIN.

    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 prizes - 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.

      Detroit/Charlotte OVER (6 out of the last 8 between these two teams have went over. Detroit not playing defense this year.)

      Cleve/Dallas UNDER (5 out of the last 7 between these two teams have gone under. Two good defensive teams should continue that trend)

          Philadelphia 76ers -11½

          Sacramento is hurting at the boards playing with young players and without Miller.

          Chicago Bulls +7

          Bulls are playing better than Orlando at this moment.

              GS -2 : GS might have lost some firepower from last season, but they're still better than Memphis IMO.

              Cle/Dal un 191.5 : no reason to particularly like this, just going with the RLM.

                It's not difficult to see a repeat of yesterday's Minnesota/Oklahoma game in today's GSW/Memphis game. Everyone is saying GSW is the better team and 2 points will be easy for them to cover. On paper, that's true. But we saw as Minnesota led twice by about 10 points and still "ensured" they handed the game to their opponents. I think many people will fall for the GSW -2 trap and then get creamed. Just my thoughts.

                  Cle +3: Lebron has yet to have a break out game and they have given up way too many turnovers. Look for them to tighten up defensively and Lebron to have a big game.

                  Bobcats+6: With Billups out pending the trade to Denver and Larry Brown coaching vs his old team look for the Bobcats to be dailed in more than the Pistons in this one to at least keep this one close.

                      Cleveland and Over {+3,191.5} The thinking here is Lebron will have a big night with this matchup. Reports say Dallas will try to use an up tempo Style this year. Like the total better than the side but for this format this is my play for today.

                        detroit was involved in trade today so less scoring



                        504 Charlotte Bobcats +6

                        billups traded today

                            BOBCATS +6: This is a free two points in the contest after the big trade today. Charlotte just beat Miami by 13 points at home and I see no reason why they can't take a short-handed Pistons team down to the wire.

                            BULLS/MAGIC UNDER 196: The Bulls can't put the ball in the ocean right now, shooting a dismal 34% from the field the last two games. The Magic broke out for 121 points Saturday after being held in the 80s their first two games, but that was against a defenseless Sacramento team.

                                Memphis is real bad.

                                Utah -6.5
                                Until Davis and Camby are 100%, this team stands no shot.

                                    Golden State Warriors Over 196
                                    Not sure why this number is under 200. I know Memphis has played under the total this year but the warriors still give up over 100 and score over 100.

                                    Detroit Pistons Over 184
                                    I know I'm betting into this bad line but still think there's a ton of value. Pistons are pushing the ball more and Charlotte still hasn't figured out how to play D.

                                      Mavs looked bad in first 2 games despite winning in Minny, Cle is the better team

                                      Golden State Warriors -2
                                      Memphis cant score G State should create match up nightmares in this game.

                                        Utah Jazz -6½ Over 187½ I think the Jazz are a far superior team to the the Clippers who will most likely get crushed tonight like the Lakers did to them a week ago.

                                          This is not for the contest but just posting:

                                          Bobcats ML
                                          There's no need to go for the runline here, the Bobcats will put EVERYTHING into this one and pull a win.

                                          BULLS/MAGIC 1H Under 98½
                                          I don't see the 1H of this game going Over 90, so 98½ is way too a high a total for the 1H of the game. I'm running away from taking the whole game Under as a tie could take take the total Over in OT.

                                            golden st. -1

                                            Mavericks -2.5
                                            Yes I do, Utah -6.5 is last game on the board, so your initial parlay stands. And Golden State is -2, not -1. Don't edit your post thiugh, I got it.

                                              Utah Jazz -6½:utah is the much better team and should have no problem covering against the awful clippers.

                                              Charlotte Bobcats +6:60% of the public is on the pistons but the line is down to -3.5, so im going with the sharps on this play

                                                Nothing to do with sharps, line dropped because Billups and McDyess are gone and they are two men short tonight.

                                                  Golden State -2, G-State has to much offensive fire power for Memphis and I expect a flurry of 3 balls!!

                                                  Sacramento/Philadelphia UNDER 198.5- Sacramento's offense is terrible and I don't expect Philly to score 110+ points to compensate for it.

                                                      504 Charlotte Bobcats +6 - Larry Brown knows how to beat his old team baby!

                                                      509 Cleveland Cavaliers Over 191½ - I think this total is just too low for this game, I've got to take advantage of it.

                                                        Charlotte +6 - Brown revenge, Pistons trade make this a must play.

                                                        Los Angeles Clippers +6.5 - Jazz go from fresh mountain air to LA smog...if you can't breath you can't play.

                                                            Chicago Bulls +7
                                                            if both teams show up tonight besides the fact that these 2 almost always play competitively against each other, edge is on the team with the plus! :P

At this point in the season, unless the Grizz are playing the Bobcats or the Knicks, they shouldn't be favorite.

                                                                      Utah/LA Clippers UNDER 187.5: When they played Saturday, they only combined for 180. Utah tends to play a slower pace on the road, and without Baron, the Clips have no pace whatsoever! Two explosive point guards on the shelf tonight who like to push give way to Mobley/Hart and Ronny Price. Yikes!
