Is any poster on SBR up $$$ on the NBA this season?

I am, but thats only because I spot bet somewhat decent Money Lines. Taking advantage of teams playing their 4th game in 5 nights. Or a team returning home after a long road trip.

i've bet on 5 nba games all year and the Nba all star total over im 4-2 probably wont bet it again until cbb is over... teams taking nights off trades destroying chemistry im much better at cbb and cbb totals.

I'm in the tank with NBA, this year has been brutal to figure out

WvGambler · 02-26-11, 12:52 PM

Yes I am actually up in the NBA. I am a bad capper in the NBA, but have only played MAYBE 20 plays. I have pretty much made a tiny profit tailing the Celtics/Heat and fading the Cavs.

I hit a nice 3 teamer (Celts, Celts Over, Lakers) the other night, which helped.

Last 3 days have been pretty bad for me. But I had way more winning days then losing. Just gotta keep the units small, cuz u never know when that hard patch is coming.

ngates815 · 02-26-11, 12:58 PM

Up 1900 in nba, but down 2250 in college.

Fuk my ass

Serious question. Ok yea I forgot SweetJones is up a little bit but is anyone else? It has been a blood bath for most including myself, Unpredictable to say the least.

Wow that was even during the time you were banned, you're a sicko

I think the NBA is better for being selective and picking and choosing spots.

Since most of us are degens, that philosophy doesn't mesh with our nature. And the more plays we make, the further behind we fall.

Every since the whole Donahy situation was exposed I am not sure how anyone can trust the NBA again. It's already more of an entertainment show than a sport.

spankie · 02-26-11, 01:27 PM

pretty sure bobby is up in nba.

doublej95 · 02-26-11, 01:34 PM

I got kicked in the nuts about a month ago in the NBA, had one terrible week that almost put me down for the count.

Cap dat 4ss · 02-26-11, 01:37 PM

I've been on both sides of even this season but currently in the green... Hoping for the bucks to cover 4 tonight

obamaismyuncle · 02-28-11, 12:22 AM

lol, maybe 1 or 2 people on this forum are ahead in the NBA this year, sweetjones being one of them. hard to bet this stuff, anything can and will happen.

Pauulzcappin · 02-28-11, 12:31 AM

If Portland didn't shit the bed, I'd be close.

shari91 · 02-28-11, 12:34 AM

I am honestly up in the NBA but I quit when I was ahead about a month and a half ago. I've made a couple of bets since then tailing a few of the Chat guys but other than that, I've stayed away. Not sure why as I'm usually a complete degen with NBA but this year things seem too screwy. Or at least screwier than usual.

B1GER1C828 · 02-28-11, 12:34 AM

yes, in plays ive put in spreadsheet im 33-22 but ive had way more than that i just havent put in. im having a really good season though

Mikail · 02-28-11, 12:34 AM

NBA has really put a hurt on me last few months. If not for the crooked NBA I'd be up BIG TIME! I know it's foul but I still throw my hard earned money at it so no one to blame but myself.

warriorfan707 · 02-28-11, 12:35 AM

The NBA is corrupt as fuk

panik · 02-28-11, 12:38 AM

My balance is a roller coaster. I have no money management at all... I started with less than 100 at the start of the season.. Went up to 4000$$$ Lost all during Christmas bets. Now Im back up by 600.... Im afraid the trend will continue and I will lose all again.

obamaismyuncle · 02-28-11, 12:40 AM

portland a -5 fav is down 17 here in the 4th, I know shit happenes and port has a 50/50 shot of covering a line like this but for this game to not even be competitive, you can't bet this shit. everyone likes to say they're up on the year

FourLengthsClear · 02-28-11, 12:43 AM

I am doing OK.

I'm telling you, that's why you need to quit when you're up. You were on a sick run at the start of the season and I had a great one too but I chickened out and gave up on the whole thing so I wouldn't give my winnings back. Very hard to win at this sport unless you have a lot of time to invest or are willing to make massive bets and chase. Since I am none of the above I just did a little hit and run this year.

ok now what · 02-28-11, 01:10 AM

Yes, I'm up. Only one wager. Won it. ;-)

Not my cup of irish coffee to wager NBA. . . but I'll skew out any positive stat I can get!

rm18 · 02-28-11, 01:13 AM

I am up have had huge success fading the Wizards on the road, but had a bad bowl season and college hoops is a graveyard.

MB · 02-28-11, 01:13 AM

NBA is my #1 league. I haven't deposited since the season started and have cashed out two dimes every 3 weeks average. Started bad, and had to adjust my style a lot.

vyomguy · 02-28-11, 01:27 AM

up over 35k this season in basketball including NBA and NCAAB.

Illusion · 02-28-11, 01:40 AM

Down big in the NBA, but killing it in college. Think my NBA betting is done until the playoffs.

dfberger23 · 02-28-11, 01:47 AM

Betting on the NBA is a burial unless you spot bet.

I am down a little bit for sure.

I'm up but I had my first losing week in line a month this week because this past week has been really unpredictable due to the trades and whatnot. Went 3-6 this past week on NBA games.
