The NBA Thread
 

Let's discuss NBA here. :)

I'll post some thoughts on the upcoming fixtures later.

NBA thread lets have a go...
 

Let the discussion begin then....

For tomorrow im looking at Cleveland to win and cover against the Rockets.

The over in the Indiana/Bobcats game. (over 186)

The under in Utah/Clippers game.(186)

Detroit Ml against the Wizards.

Tell me something about yourself knowledge and your betting history. How long have u been at it and what have u been betting on over the years?
The kings won but failed to cover against the Breakers tonight which was something of a surprise. The Wildcats game is coming up shortly and im thinking they beat the 36ers at home.

Mate the Kings nearly blew it tonight. I am happy though had Roberts to outscore Smith, Pepper and Chappell at $3.80.

Just reinvested some of those winnings on Crawford to outscore Maher, Holmes and Grace in the Wildcats v 36ers match at $3.40.

So C'mon Crawford!!

Sweet!

Halfway through the first quarter

Crawford 9
Holmes 7
Maher 0
Grace 0

36ers 17-14

Just had a quick look over the NBA.

My initial thoughts are

Wizards +2 v Pistons - Pistons haven't been very impressive recently, they struggle to score and I think they will find it hard to shut down the Wizards completely as they have 3 legitimate weapons in Jamison, Hughes and Arenas.

Cavaliers ML and -4.5 v Rockets - Cavs look to match up pretty well against the Rockets and right now it seems like Lebron is unstoppable.

Pacers -3 @ Bobcats - Indiana beat the Bobcats earlier this year by 5 in Charlotte and this time they have O'Neal. I will take the -3 all day!!

Hornets +11.5 v Suns - I love the Suns, but I can't see them backing up too well after last nights drubbing by the Spurs. Phoenix looked like they ran out of gas in the second half, so it's tough to see them having a whole bunch of energy for this game.

Not looking bad with my bet at half time.

Crawford 15
Holmes 12
Maher 7
Grace 0

Glad I didn't take Perth, Ellis isn't playing and they are getting hammered 53-39. Farley is killing them - he has 16.

Just need Holmes to have a quiet 2nd half and I should be right.

I had a feeling Perth would lose.

1. They rarely win when they're favourite.
2. There's always an upset on Wednesday.

I always steer clear of Perth now. They have burned me to many times this year!

Geez Crawford hasn't scored yet in the 3rd quarter, I could be gone!!

Holmes 16
Crawford 15
Maher 11
Grace 0

Well my bet is toast!!!

Crawford just got subbed out with 2.30 mins to go in the game and didn't score in the second half!! He had 11 points 8 mins into the game and then went ice cold.

Maher 19
Holmes 18
Crawford 15
Grace 0

Man I thought I was home at HT. No Ellis, Grace got injured I figured the scoring would definitely fall on Lett and Crawford. No wonder the Wildcats got hammered.

Final Score 36ers 110-88

ok guys, I've got some tips. sorry if the timing is inconvenient.

Indiana Pacers at Charlotte Bobcats
Indiana -4

Detroit Pistons at Washington Wizzards
OVER 183.5

good luck.

I think every man and their dog is on Indiana. I got them at -3 last night, but I think the line started as low as -1.5.

Very close game at the moment though Indy 55 Charlotte 53 at 3 qtr time.

Need the Wizards to hang on. They led by 17 at HT and now the Pistons have cut the lead to 9 with 4.30 left in the 3rd.

Pistons always win it in the final quarter. Usually by 1-5 points. That's why I don't bet for/against them. Way too unpredictable.

today I went 1-1.
There was over 183 points in Wizards-Pistons but the Pacers were short by two points, failing to cover the spread.

Struggling at the moment!

Cavaliers lost to the Rockets, but I just read the Lebron got hurt during the game so I guess that explains that.

The other two games I have bet on were a push. Washington up by 17 at HT at home and then loses by 2.

Indiana beat Charlotte by 3, so if you got in real early you could of got -1.5 to -2.5, but if you were a little late like me and Knowledge you would of either pushed or lost. I was hoping Charlotte would foul after they missed their last shot, but I guess they took it right on the buzzer giving them no time to foul.

My other bet is hanging in the balance. The Hornets did hit the lead early in the 3rd quarter, but the Suns have gone on one of their customary runs and now lead 75-68 late in the 3rd qtr.

Houston to beat Sacramento - $1.45

New Jersey to beat LA - $2.20 - NO KOBE! = NO LAKERS WIN

Golden State (+5.5) - $1.85

:)

good day for me.

NJ won.
Goldenstate +5.5 won.

Houston lost in OT.
