NBL Round 9

[Pablow]

Perth Wildcats at Brisbane Bullets

Selections:- Brisbane Ml

Perth went close on the road against the 36ers and probably will lose here too. Its a busy week for Perth with the North End double coming against the Crocs and Taipans on back to back nights. This is surely Perths's best chance to score a win as I dont see them winning later in the week. If u like Perth take them at the line here but i c the Bullets starting the week with a win and then following that with a big win against the Pirates on Saturday night.

Perth 11+ by any chance

[Pablow]

If i could get +11 for Perth i would take it 4 sure! Its about -6.5 at all places im thinking.

[goldmember]

At the start of the season i rated these 2 teams 5th and 6th, and i still think the Bullets are over rated, but should scrape in against the wildcats,who have to travel again, which i think might take its toll in this game,[i backed the wildcats with +6.5 against the 36ers last week] but later in the week I wouldnt say they will have an easy win against the Pirates, as they are going into every game thinking thay will win, won plenty on them lately and they are Full of confidence at the moment, at the start i said they would win 4 or 5 this season[ improving on their 2 wins from 33 last year]but would still miss the play offs and have already won 5/10 so far this season !

Centres have some great odds for Steven Black top score and most 3 points

[Pablow]

I c where u r coming from goldmember with the come from nowhere type of wins 4 the Pirates. Im of the opinion they will struggle and lose to the Hawks on Friday at home and then back up with an away game against the Bullets. If they werent playing the first game against the Hawks at home and just the away game I would be looking at them as surprise road dogs and back them at the line. I think they will be slightly zapped by the first game at home and get done in Brisbane....Only time will tell i guess : )

[goldmember]

I dont follow the Pirates, actually i follow Wollongong and Townsvillle, but i cant see how you could say they will struggle against the Hawks at home when they have already beaten them at home so far this year.

[Pablow]

Once again i c what u mean with the first game ending in a 9 point win for the Pirates....but in that instance Hawks were coming off a home win against an opponent I cant remember (sorry) the previous night, and the hawks may have over looked the Pirates. This game the Hawks have the opportunity to concentrate fully on their opponents and reverse the outcome. Not forgetting this round the Hawks only have this game to worry about...again come Friday night I could be woefully wrong.

[knowledge]

so Pablo what are your bets?

[Pablow]

Well then gm down to the nitty gritty of it all. Im leaning towards Brisbane tonight but am yet to make a play and dont really care if I dont. The only reason being if i lose tonight it will put me off 4 later in the week. For tonight then it would be the Brisbane money line for me (1.33 and higher elsewhere).
I like the hawks on Friday over the Pirates as stated. Also like your Crocs against the Wildcats on the same night. Like the Taipans over the Wildcats the night after with the 36ers to win against Melbourne sat night also and finally the Bullets to get a solid win over the Pirates also on Sat night. I left alone Melbourne and the Breakers with a slight lean to Breakers at the line (depending on what that is) . Not sure about the Kings and Pigs but hopefully the Pigs can do something but then again. The Sunday game is kind of tough with the Breakers maybe getting a deserved home win against your Crocs (not great confidence there though gm)

Friday night NBL action....

Hawks@Pirates :- Hawks Ml (revenge here after a nine point loss at the same venue) One game this week for the Hawks and heres hoping they dont truck it up against the in form Pirates.

Breakers@Tigers:- Breakers (line +9) same price when they played in corresponding match last year, and that one was close. I might make a point of taking the 9 on offer for the Breakers and hope they can improve on their poor away record in Melbourne.

Wildcats@Crocs:- Crocs Ml (line cover) I cant c the Wildcats winning either of their remaining round 9 games so take with Crocodiles but whether they cover -7 on offer is up to u

Kings@Razorbacks:- Surely the pigs can bounce back with some inspired game here but Im happy to leave this alone....

[thebookie]

Friday night's games :

I give Hunter a chance tonight and anyone that plays the Tigers are a show!

[Jack Daniels]

In tonights games I like:

Pirates Vs Hawks (over 192.5) @ $1.85 Lost
x
Tigers Vs Breakers (over 195.5) @ $1.85 Lost
x
Razorbacks Vs Kings (over 195.5) @ $1.85 Lost
x
Crocodiles Vs Wildcats (CROCS) @ $1.38 Lost

= $8.73

I didn't go the over/under on the Crocodiles Vs Wildcats game because it was over/under 207.5, which I find to be a bit high. Although I nearly went the under 207.5

Go you good things.
---------------------------------------------
I should have done the exact opposite of what I did do. DOH.

U wanna know something never back o/u. I lost alot of money on it. Espec in Nbl. I backed under at one point, and like 5 mins to go i thought i had it. they went on shooting frenzy. i lost by 1.5

[Jack Daniels]

Doubt I will bet on NBL ever again. That was painful lastnight. Oh well the cricket is on, so I should get a couple of hours in before I head off to a mates wedding.

I want to know if anyone is offering odds on whether my mate who is a known big drinker will get p!ssed at his own wedding and make a cnut of himself?? :smile: :smile: :smile:

[Pablow]

Saturday night action NBL...

Wildcats @ Taipans:- Surely Perth wont leave this one with a win. Bad enough they beat the Crocs last night but a well rested Cairns should get home. Taipans Ml (just to be safe)

Tigers@36ers:- return of a favour for the 36ers as they should get a home win against last nights impressive winners Melbourne. Breakers had some chance to cover the line but their poor away record again with the theme of the night. 36ers Ml

Pirates@Bullets:- Should be an impressive win for the Bullets here with the Pirates going down at home in a tightly contested match the previous night at home against the Hawks. Bullets to win and cover!

Best of luck people! This NBL thing can leave u a bit lost at times but the truth is out there...Im hopn!

P.S The only thing that scares me is all three of my selection are favourites! Enough said...
