I knew it was a trap game today..

When it comes to NBA betting if you ever want to know why totals are the way to go as opposed to sides

Look at tonight's Golden State Warriors game. The Warriors who were out of it most of the game and getting blown out came back to cover the 4 point spread with 3 seconds to go. Up 5, there's a blocking call made, Denver shoots 2 free throws and the Nuggets cover.

time to take a break from betting

Guys the Lakers are going to be really bad this year


If you can Bet the Rockets -5 for the opening day against the Lakers NOW !!!!

Absolutely hate betting them but frankly, totals are the sharpest way to win NBA. Sport is so fukking insane to bet sides.

Btw, I'd take the Lakers on that game tbh, i'm guessing they're at home

It won't be 5 by game time.


The Lakers won't be able to score with the Rockets. Defensively they're a mess.....and offensively they don't shoot 3s (That's Byron Scott's plan, for them to shoot less than 15 three pointers a game, which is just not possible in this NBA. Right now in the preseason Steph Curry has more 3s than the Lakers....I think they took 3 threes a few nights ago). The Rockets are probably the most analytic based team in the league. In terms of points per possession....1.14 (corner 3s) trumps your average 2 point shot.

I don't have a model for basketball but I plan to develop one....


Massey has this up.....and I think it's being nice at this point. I doubt it's factoring all the Lakers injuries and new coaching Staff....This thing can get ugly

I'm a Laker fan and actually bet the Lakers ML 1st half

as well as the Under 203.5 Full game....

So I've been watching. I can see this Laker team competing for last.....between the injuries, Kobe being old and the coaching staff.....

in conjunction with having bets on the Jets +10.5, Giants ML, Giants Over 6....Celtics 1st half and full game, Spurs/suns over 100 first half, Hawks +4.5

Losing Bets tonight.......Warriors 1st half -2.5 and full game -4. (Complete shytty play)

I like your angle, it's the right play, but I'm a stubborn prick sometimes. I'll back dogs till the death of me, but I'll keep an eye on that line, if anything I'll prolly no-bet that contest and find a game with a lot more value than that one.

I just don't put much stock in preseason for NBA

1/2 SPURS INJURY REPORT: Kawhi Leonard (right eye infection), Patty Mills (torn right rotator cuff) & Tiago Splitter (strained right soleus)

2/2 Will not be playing in Thursday night's game in Phoenix. Also, Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili & coach Popovich will not travel with the team.

And i just read that phoenix is concerned with conditioning so the starters will probably get more time in... right now the line is -4 but i cant think of a more for srue thing... the entire starting lineup and ginobli is out... only person playing is parker....

the under is also 204.5

i mean if i had more money this would be the play

Great tip. Should have put way more money on this.
