Bankers ncaa hoops season long thread

[2daBank]

hey banker, give me a lock so i can buy a 12pk for christmas

THANKS

Lol. I’m not the right guy to ask for a lock pal., I’ll do my best to find you one I feel pretty good about but all that does is give us a slightly better chance of winning than losing. Wish I had that crystal ball these loudmouth wanna be touts sbr been flooded w last week or so claim to have but I don’t (I suspect they don’t either, just talk as they do! Lol)..

As of now Oklahoma my favorite but let me finish card before I say for sure that the best.,

i gotta pass it bro

many places have moved it up to -3?!

[2daBank]

What up Bank, I like Marquette, don't see Buffalo going into Marquette a couple days after going into Syracuse and winning.

I’m still kicking myself for playing cuse vs them, I really like this bulls team I just thought cuse was a bad matchup for them. They made me even more impressed with that win as they showed a level of toughness more than I thought they had as they made a big shot every time they needed it in that game. I thought their propensity fit settling for too many jumpers would be a problem vs cuse but despite not being a great shooting team they drained one every time they needed it in that game., I Havnt looked into the matchups in this one yet but 1st thought is I don’t wanna get in front of them right now, lol.

Yea I should prob have waited. Seeing how i took the money line I’ll prob hit them on the spread as well if I can get 3 or more around tip. Line moves don’t mean shit to me. I think sooners win this game.

I’ll find you another tho. That was just 1st one that jumped out to me so I capped it 1st. I’m just sitting down to do whole card now.

Kent st +10... not our typical “defense travels” type play as Kent st strength is offense, they have 2-3 really good shooters in particular. They played last year at Kent st and beavers couldn’t handle walker and Avery. On the road this time but Kent st still has these 2 guys and I still don’t think beavers can handle them. Beavers gonna win on the boards and inside but I just don’t think the offense is good enough to cover this number vs these shot makers on Kent st who has already went on the road and beat a vandy team I ranked higher than Oregon st.. beavers prob win but like Kent st to stay within this generous number for some early afternoon action.

So 3-3 day thanks to those blowout under specials once again being way the fukk off., next time ya’ll catch me on one of those do me a favor and hit me upside the head to remind me they have really been terrible!! Don’t even wanna think how much better winning percentage would be had I simply just passed on all of those this year?! Lol.

61-46 overall.

Great record. Keep it up.

[t-wizzle]

On NW tonight. We go head to head again.

[2daBank]

On NW tonight. We go head to head again.

Lol. Maybe it your turn to get me. I dunno tho, I really like this sooners team, I don’t think they slip vs a team they superior to here. Wasn’t it sooners last time too? You don’t like them huh? Until they get the respect they deserve being put into the top 25 I think they keep rolling teams. Once they get ranked I’ll prob jump ship! Lol

[2daBank]

Great record. Keep it up.

Thanks bud. It was a lot better before last week or so, sliding a little with these stupid games with garbage vs good and with kids being away so home court not as strong., just trying to tread water till conf play gets here!!

I do like them I just think northwestern wins at home.

[2daBank]

I do like them I just think northwestern wins at home.

But you took creighton vs them in Norman too!!! A game I’m might point out wasn’t even as close as the 13 point margin, sooners dominated them from about 15 min mark on in that game! I watched DePaul whip on NW for about 33 minutes before falling apart at NW. don’t see this being that big a test for real. Throw in home court not being as strong for anyone this time of year w students all gone and just think it sooners or nothing here.

[2daBank]

Uc Irvine/butler under 135...

2 teams that defense is their calling cards. Imo this game very similar to the Butler/slu game in terms of matchups/styles. I’d expect butler offense to be better than that game as they at home here and that gm was huge for slu. But I do expect the scoring to be similar just likely score reversed and butler scores in the mid 60s while anteaters struggle to reach 60.

Both teams play to some of the slowest tempos in the country so for this game to even sniff this total it gonna take incredibly good shooting performances, with the quality of defense played by both that seems unlikely at best. A case can be made to take the 9 points as well but with possessions being limited and butler having the vastly more efficient offense I think little more value with under since number has gotten bet up.

[2daBank]

Card so far.

Kent st +10
Sooners +2
Irvine/butler under 135

[2daBank]

Lipscomb -7

This a tough one for Vermont, coming off a double ot win just a few days ago vs bonnies now they get a high energy bison team that plays fast and runs a lot of guys to wear you down., Vermont is a jump shooting team so even tougher to expect a good performance for 40 minutes with what I suspect be tired legs at some point in this one. When they missing 3s it gonna let lipscomb get out and run where they dangerous., in the half court I don’t think Vermont can handle marburry., ultimately I think Vermont could hang around for awhile but as this game goes on we will get stretches of runs by the bison that will put them away.,

[2daBank]

Pen st +4.5 and under 142..

Rare I play side and total but think they go hand and hand here in a gm I expect to come down to the wire., pen st has played a incredibly tough schedule so going on road to bama isn’t gonna seem all that daunting to them imo. When bama has struggled it been against grind it out defense teams much like pen st. The young nittany lions have lost a lot of close games which I think will give them the ability to hang in here in a game I think 70 will win it..

[2daBank]

Card so far.

Kent st +10
Sooners +2
Irvine/butler under 135

Lipscomb -7
Pen st +4.5
Psu/bama Un 142

THANKS

Lipscomb might be the one Rudy. Takes a lot for me to like a team laying 7 or more, typically works out when I do. Think great spot to fade Vermont here, they might hang early on but strongly believe at some point bison will go on a run that buries what should be a tired Vermont team without the energy to respond.

What a pain in the ass it is to try and figure out Illinois st! Does anyone understand this team? They have some gifted players but far too often perform like dog shit as a whole. My thoughts on this UCF game tonight is I think illi st can put some points up and think their d garbage enough it should entice UCF into playing a little quicker, kinda like vs Georgia southern, only problem is it really tough to wanna play a ucf over cause their style just not conducive for points., it would def be in illi st best interest to get out in transition as much as possible as Fayne outta be able to beat taco big ass down the court every time!!

So the play:

Illi st/ucf over 141.5

Kent st +10

That's the mindfuck bet of the day. Or Illinois St covers easily or they will be smashed by +30.

[2daBank]

Lol, no doubt. I feel like if they do cover it outta fly over. If they get smashed could very well still sneak over something like 80-64 or something. In the end feel like over gives us a better percent chance of cashing. But seriously who knows w that team! Lol

Ncaab Today

Great call on Kent State. Looking for that hot streak like during the Thanksgiving break. Keep up the good work Bank!! I take every game you post. Is ncaab your top sport?

We get hot again, just have to keep our heads up when we on one these little 50/50 type lulls we in.

I generally do pretty well w ncaa hoops and baseball, don’t really know which better, hoops more fun for me. 1st half of baseball season pretty gravy tho!! Those only 2 I really expect to win at. lol

[Makeitrain100]

I hear you on college hoops. Nba and Nfl is anyone guess unless a specific system works out.

[2daBank]

Hopefully this Kent st game don’t screw around and go to ot. That would suck. Kinda wishing we would have kicked the tires on the ml! Lol

[2daBank]

I hear you on college hoops. Nba and Nfl is anyone guess unless a specific system works out.

Nba is far too situational imo which great for some but not a strength of mine at all. Nba playoffs usually pretty easy when you can count on honest effort from both teams. I play very little reg season, few guys I tail from time to time and certain teams if I can get a good line on them at home I’ll bite.. that bout it.,

Nfl who knows?? Lol. I’ve had some monster seasons but also have had my head busted more times than I care to admit too!! Lol. Purely for entertainment betting that sport for me!! Just this year alone I went from crushing to 3 weeks of getting crushed, now I been seeing pretty well last few weeks again!! Freaking roller coaster. That what you get when betting on games that mostly come down to a handful of plays, a couple turnovers, or few dog shit flags!! I do like a few this week.. ravens/chargers under looks great! Lions/Vikings under looks pretty good., dallas In a teaser seems like a lock (just gotta find other team!)..

[2daBank]

Outright winner w our 10 point doggie to start the day/. Pissed we didn’t sprinkle the money line!! Honestly thought beavers would have too big a edge on boards to lose it. Knew Kent st shooters would prob keep them inside the number, just surprised beavers didn’t score more w inside advantage.. oh well, nice to start with a early win opposed to digging out 0-3 start yesterday!! Lol

[Makeitrain100]

I jumped on Austin Peay and Kent State so far. 2-0. Shootig for a successful day. What is your thoughts on Radford? Thanks again Bank for helping out with hoops.

I’m out doing little shopping. I headed back to crib now, I’ll look when I get home,, Havnt looked at that one yet. Gimmie like 15 min and I’ll see what i think.

[Joey Vigs]

Yea im not., I don’t have any locks to give anyways! Lol., I don’t mind looking at games I’m not on and giving my opinion if I got time, doesn’t mean I’m gonna play it, lol.,

[Makeitrain100]

I have Radford by 9-11 points. Just my thought on this game.
