[Tsoprano]

fuk u steve



unreal

[diogee]

Another shit beat for me...****

[UntilTheNDofTimE]

if he makes that , they foul and go up 5 again...any justice here? maybe

[THEGREAT30]

SS, sorry and suspicious.

[Regul8er]

Wouldnt have mattered.......Portland would have inbounded to Roy, and he would have hit 2 FT's.
At least you got a push, I had the spread at f'n 4.5

[Iwinyourmoney]

Guys, if you got a push take it! Just feel bad for the +4.5 guys

[Tsoprano]

A Blazer could of missed a free throw, or make em and then the Suns come back and hit a shot. Just a tough push. Guy was WIDE OPEN.

[treece]

Too many people on the suns made him miss.

[Tsoprano]

Roy is a 70% free throw shooter. He was DUE for misses.

[l7ustin]

I had Blazers -4

[MickChunky]

Had it at +4. Lost $285 on one layup

[Regul8er]

Not a 70% shooter tonight Soprano........the basket looked like it was twice as big for him!
Be happy with your push. Wish I was in your shoes

[unit1884]

I will now buy 2.5 points on every NBA line I bet

[Regul8er]

YUP.....I lost both my NBA bets tonight by a half point.......unreal how sick line makers are, its unbelievable!

[pimike]

down to the seconds. Glad I stayed off it.

[Nicky Santoro]

now you guys see why getting the best # is crucial.. some had +5 and pushed.. some had +4.5 and lost bet, + juice.. ouch.. some had +5.5 and won..

if you lost 550 bucks on this game at +4.5 and the next guy won 500 at +5.5, that's an extra 1050 bucks of profit.. now times that by the 1,500 games you bet a year and you probably save an extra 60k you save a year with that extra 1 pt alone.. and it's only 1 pt better than closing line..
thats right, 60k you would save per year for that 1 pt..

[unit1884]

**** that Nash, you fkn homo, he knew the line was at +4 when it closed, didnt want to cover huh?

[diogee]

I'll take the push but would still like to kick Nash in the junk.

[Regul8er]

I know the numbers Nicky, and your absolutely right!
I wanted action, I got it late at a bad line, and I lost. Just the way life goes sometimes!!

Nicky, it amazes me that alot of guys don't understand if you can't get the best number then don't bet it. Some guys will even bet bad numbers at -115 and up too.

He unloaded on Portland.

if i played every game i liked in my 25 yr gambling career and never cared about what line i play at and didn't care about playing into weak lines only, today, i'd be poor and eating in a soup kitchen.. i would have been broke 20 yrs ago had i not been disciplined to do this.. i know it's tempting when a game is about to tip off on tv and you are bored and you are laying -5.5 at your book instead of laying -4.5 at current line at pinny, and you lay the -5.5 cause you have no choice and game lands on 5, like tonight..

it's just throwing money in the toilet.. might as well give it to charity.

Best number wasn't available for long at all and never available at Pinny...I'm happy enough beating the number on all 3 of my games today so I'll take the push.

**Nash owes me twice now.

[WileOut]

Anybody on phoenix, you can blame the loss on Amare Staudemire. He played the worst defense I think I've ever seen an NBA player play. Early in the 3rd, in order to avoid getting his 4th foul and coming out of the game, even though Phoenix is loaded with scorers and needed him to defend more than they needed him to stay in the game, he let Aldridge go up for like 3 or 4 uncontested layups. Then he would not collapse the middle when it was broken down. Why Portland didn't go to the post every time is beyond me because it was uncontested points. I mean Amare didn't even move on defense. It is pathetic, his ego is going to cost the team any shot at a championship. He had to get his points, and he did, and they lost.

By the way he got his 4th foul as an offensive foul of course.

I wasn't referring to you diogee or anybody specific. I was just making a statement about most people in general. I've been guilty of it myself. Some people though don't have any idea how important it is. I hate to see guys getting beat like that. I'm glad you at least got the push.

[tullamore]

If I had money on the Suns I would be a lot more pissed about a foul not being called when Nash pump faked on the 3 and 2 guys bumped him.

Excellent post. Spot on.



----Not only did he give up the easy scores, it gave Portland all the momentum.

[WileOut]

Yea, Phoenix was up 12 midway through the 3rd. Ended the 3rd down 5.

[fiveteamer]

don't watch nba games when you bet them.

unless you bet the Lakers and they are at home.

I know man. The number is absolutely crucial which is why I like to cap the card the night before and get in any bets that I feel will move with me the night before and wait a bit if I feel I will get a better number.

[unit1884]

I think betting NBA ATS is the most stressful due to all the BS covers.

betting ML is the way to go, at least your own team wont fvck you

[daggerkobe]

The previous possession Richardson I believe had a chance to foul Aldridge who shoots only 70%FT and hadnt attempted one all game but they wait til Roy gets the ball to foul. Nash is washed up so not surprised he missed a gimme layup.

But not as tough a loss as Drexel last night.

nash is far from washed up. Ever think that after playing 40+ minutes he might have been a little tired and being down 7 points knowing this layup means nothing is all the reason to miss it?

Also not to mention that when you play any sport you tend to choke when you do things along because there is no competition around you thus making it harder not easier.

3rdly the suns are going to win the championships

[unit1884]

The suns are a disgrace to basketball
