HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA I am just laughing in hysteria at myself. I have never been happier that I was wrong. hahahahaha
The percentage of money triumphs in favor of the underdog to close out tonight. That being said, Rockets+Over. Safe bet just take the "OVER Rockets."
Alright fellas, I'm back. I hit a nice parlay today (Bulls +6.5, Detroit Tigers moneyline, & Mayweather moneyline). I'll post betting slip if necessary. I'm on the Grizzlies +3 for tomorrow. I wanted to see what people thought of Golden State +8.5 on Monday. It seems a little too high imo. Thoughts? Looking even further ahead, even without knowing the line, I like Mia to cover game 1 against the Bulls with the Bulls possibly covering game 2. Chicago first half ats might be worth taking a look at as well. Edit: I'll also be on Detroit Tigers either run-line or moneyline tomorrow as well.
Memphis covered...Ending up taking the Pacers +5.5 and the over of 92 for the 2nd half of the same game. Also took the Detroit Tigers run-line. Ended up taking Golden State +8.5 and Miami -11.5. Will be more than happy to post betting slips if necessary.
Oooh I don't like that Miami line. I think game 1 will be the most likely chance for them to come out flat and can see it being a tight one.
Ended up being a very nice day with Memphis covering, Pacers covering, Tigers covering, and the Indiana-NY game going over 92 for the 2nd half. All this coupled with last night's parlay win brings my overall record to 20-8-1 in the post-season so far. Again, I'm on Golden State +8.5 and Miami -11.5 for both games ones tomorrow. Miami may come out flat after an extended period of time off and the Bulls could continue to be hot. I think Chicago may be a little emotionally and physically exhausted after all they've been through and Miami could end up eventually blowing them out. I think the line in the Spurs game is a little too high (should be Spurs -6.5 or -7.5 at the most imo) and the line in the Miami game is a little too low (should be around Heat -13 imo). We'll see what happens. For now it's time to get ready to go out and blow this money, lol.
Holy crap on the lines... seems like Vegas is begging everyone to take Chicago +11.5... seems too easy, right? In that case, I'll be on Miami.
1-1 yesterday....the Miami game went how I thought it would go with the exception of the 4th qtr. I thought Miami would be the team to outlast Chicago and outscore them by 10 in covering the spread, but it went the other way around. I'm on Memphis +3 (bough half a point for insurance) one more time tonight. I'll be damned if Kevin Martin scores 25 points or whatever again. I like Knicks moneyline tonight too because they know they can't go into Indiana down 2-0. Plus all their complaining about fouls and lack of calls may help them tonight. But there's just not enough value there. I might do a parlay with the Angels moneyline and Knicks moneyline. Edit: Also on the over of 94 for the 2nd half of the Indiana-NYK game. No baseball plays tonight. Yessir, I'll be here.
Hi Kwame, I was wondering what kind of amounts you bet for the typical game? For example, do you just put in like $10 dollars here and there or you go for more than $100 or $1000 bets? Was just curious, haha.
2-0 today and 1-1 yesterday...Didn't think Kevin Martin could keep up the kinda play we saw in game 1 and he didn't. I have nothing for tomorrow as of yet, but it doesn't look like there's much interest in this thread anymore so I may stop posting picks. I don't want to keep bumping a thread where I'm just quoting myself. My post-season record currently stands at 23-9-1. Usually people who bet have disposable income they set aside, which is known as a bankroll. They also refer to the amount that they bet in units. Thus, a person can say they bet 10 units on a game and that could mean anything from $10 to $10,000. But I have no problem discussing this. During the regular season I bet no more than $55 a game and $20 on parlay (multiple outcome) bets because NBA players and teams have tendencies to take nights off. During the playoffs, it's a minimum of $110 a game and $50 on parlays. To me games are easier to cap during the post-season due to the elevated level of play. So I've been doing pretty well this post-season, but hitting your bets at an almost 72% rate is unsustainable in the long-term or else I would quit my job and make my living this way, lol.
hey kwame what u have today? i have chicago under as my main one, follow by chicago spread and warrior over
Sorry for the late reply, but I was busy at work today. I'm on Miami -12.5 and San Antonio -6.5 (bough half a point for insurance). The depleted Bulls are playing well, but I think Miami comes out much stronger this game and makes a statement. SA missed a lot of open mid-range jumpers on pick and rolls in game 1, I think they'll make more of those this game. I also think the benches for both teams are going to be important given the mins logged by starters in the first game and the Spurs have more quality depth. I'm hoping Splitter plays tonight as well to give SA an edge on the boards. I have nothing on the totals, but I like the under for the Bulls-Heat game. The total for the SA-GState game looks suspiciously low, which would make me feel inclined to take the under in that game as well.
