    Be Careful Betting NBA Now

    Its that time of year
    You just do not know if non playoff teams might not give full effort
    This is not the NFL whereas if your 0-15 you play like life or death in week 16

    Hell, it's been that way since February. Overpaid, spoiled dudes take the night off whenever they want. NBA regular season is way too long. These guys don't give a Rats ass as long as they keep gettin that gauranteed money.

    Houston, Memphis,Indy and Charlotte might be good bets since they are still fighting for playoff spots.

    I like this time of year. You might not know who is going to win, but you can be reasonably sure who is going to try.

    would you rather lose in the first round or get a better draft pick

    The draft means nothing
    No players will have any impact.

    Kemba and Jimmer are, at best, NBA role players.

    good advice jj, alot of people will see weird lines and bet them without putting playoffs into perspective.

    Playing for a playoff spot dont mean that much either, might mean they give max effort but doesnt guarantee a win, some teams last year needed to win games near the end and couldnt pull it off even against teams that werent playing for anything.

    Will do. I've already laid off a couple picks, but handicapping the games and not betting them is tough.

    its so hard to tell whos gnna win at this time of year, Nothing can be predicted, you can say that teams fighting for playoff spots will do better but then again even if a teams bets player is out it gives a chance to other players to prove they deserve to play, Tough situation.

    Good post JJ. Dallas cost me on that golden state game. I thought this team was coming off a Laker beat down and jockeying for home court , they would beat golden state? They are dialing it in until the playoffs.
