    Lay The 5 With Philly Tonight In The NBA

    Boyz,

    The 76ers are awfully tough at home--haven't lost there yet, nor won on the road. The Clips have looked respectable so far this season but all the incentive is with the home team. They're the better squad and will get the win and cover.

    Add these candy bars to the trick or treat bag.....

    BOSTON -2.5 over Milwaukee. All good things eventually come to an end, and so will the Bucks undefeated record. The Greek Freak is coming off concussion protocol and should be good to go, but the Celts need to make an early stand against what looks like their chief Eastern conference challenger. Lay the short number.

    Cleveland/Denver game OVER 219. The Tyrone Lue-less Cavs looked like gangbusters in their first game with the new HC. They played up-tempo and scored at will. I'm gonna ride the hot hand in this one, particularly against a Nuggets squad which played last night. The Cavs will try to out run 'em, not sure they'll get the W but this game will go OVER.

    As always, best of luck
    Harry

    Cripes, you're putting a lotta pressure on me.

    It is gambling after all. I just try to win more than I lose. Those are my plays tonight.

    Just saying I been picking someone new to tail all week in nba and it has not went well, it be nice to get a win or I’m gonna have to start capping this shit myself!! And nba is not my sport at all, way to situational for my taste! Dunno why I’m even playing it? Just bored I guess! I need ncaa hoops to start up so I have things to bet during week!!!

    Fading you on the Philly pick Harry. The only games the Sixers have won ATS are against two garbage teams (Atl and Chi), and the Clips are playing decent ball right now. Not sure they'll pull the upset but with Philly not playing their tough defensive style this early in the year, I think +5 is gonna get it done.

    Is 5.5/6 still okay Harry?

    What about over 217.5 on the Cavs game?

    I went with Philly first half. Everytime I bet them going back to last season, they always seem to dominate the first half then the wheels fall off the second half.

    Yeah probably, that's how things usually work out for NBA bets. I'm not even sure why I bother being that it is borderline unwatchable anymore.

    Embiid has 22 and counting with 6:52 left in the second. Rivers might have to dust off Boban.

    Embiid + Cov on defense and the jolt from Fultz off the bench have been the difference once things got tight here. Very encouraging minutes from the latter.

    MVP chants at the line for Embiid as the Sixers wrap up a win here. 39+12 with four blocks is not a bad evening.

    Sonny Hill spent a lot of postgame sessions last year sitting down and chatting with Joel Embiid. Appears that Markelle Fultz is his new pupil this season based on early evidence

    I'm sure someone with a database can answer it quick, but I suspect if you would've bet the Sixers 1st half every game last year and bet against them every 2nd half, you would've cleaned up. Seems like every time I tune into one of their games, they dominate early and tail off late. I could be wrong, but just the games I've seen, that seems to frequently be the case.

    Interesting. At least they held on for the cover but something to keep in mind.

    Thanks, pal.

    The NBA is a hobby only. Crazy crap every night, bad ref's, dogshite efforts--the trick is to figure out when teams are likely to be motivated, and (more importantly) when they don't give a hoot.

    See ya tomorrow.

    Good calls Harry.


    Denver was a great in game win. They got into the + in the second quarter.... hopped on them fast. Didn't take long for a cheap hedge and in the end, win.


    Sixers haven't come out great in first half on the road, I don't think. They're two very different teams so far, home and away. If they take a decent early lead on the road against a good team, hop on that home team's ML fast and flip it later.

    Happen again today. 69 in the 1st half. 40 in the 2nd half. I swear, they must be smoking pot or boozing during the break. I bet Sixers 1st half tonight and Detroit 2nd half per a post in another thread. I'll blindly do it next game too.

    Wow, that crazy man. Looks like you really onto something there! We better get after it while the getting good before books figure it out or it changes!! Looks like they won the 1st half so big they managed to still cover for game again.. you should start a thread and keep us posted on these!! I don’t pay enough attention to nba to know when they play, and gonna get even worse for me with ncaa hoops about to kick off which will eat into my extra time, havnt even started my prep work!! Lol (love me some ncaa hoops!!).,

    Running it back tonight: Sixers 1st qtr -1, Sixers 2nd qtr -1, Nets +1 3rd qtr, Net +1 4th qtr. Eyeballing their game results and lines for Jan to Mar last year, I feel there may be something there. They seem to lapse in 2nd half. I think I'll do a more in depth analysis this coming week. Could be be nothing though.
