Friday's Plate:

[alienx]

Wash +4 $22 to win $20
det/char over186 $16.50 to win $15
6 team parley round robin(4 teams):

Wash +6.5 (bought 2)
Lakers -2.5 (bought 2.5)
Mil +5.5 (bought 2.5)
Det/Char over 186.5
Sac +10 (bought 2.5)
Det -1 (bought 1)

15x$2 each to win ~$21

Both Bucks and Sac has been on the road and are tired. But I have the a feeling Bucks will stop sliding and I don't see Sacremento quiting. Charlotte is not the same team this year and they are missing Mashburn. They have been pretty bad at home. I have seen a trend in the matchups vs. same opponents have gone over recently. Both teams Det and char can shoot well anyways. And Lakers are Lakers.

thanks for your kind words alien. iwill post my pick on your thread if you don't mind.

one only:
sac +7

by the way if you can buy down or up the numbers why do you leave a hook? i would hate lose by .5 point.

 

[alienx]

No. Not at all, I don't mind. Hope other people can find your pick here too. I'm looking for your handle before I place my wagers, others might too. I am going to have a surgery today. I wanted to put coupe bets in early just in case I am in lala land before the game time.
You got a valid point about the .5 points. I will keep it in mind. I am a bit suprised to see you on Sacremento. I think the line might go up more. They are on the road and tired.

Corrrect me if I am wrong your NBA record is now at 25-12.

I'll keep talking to myself. Maybe this is the pain killers talking now. But I wanna give some reasoning into why I like these teams.
Maimi is sliding down. Washington is going up. They are a young team getting better, Miami has played together longer. They always have excuses. I know there is a big urgency on this game for them. In the same sense they showed this urgency yesterday, Washington has also showed some confidence as a team. I am thinking Jordan will put up a good effort today.
Th only game I don't like but I have played is the Seatle-LA. The line looks fishy, but oh well I played it. I think Seatle can do the trick tonite.
Det/char over 186.5 is pozzuling me b/c not many is on it. Mashburn is out but this teams can score and since they played last game vs. each other they can matchup better.
Charlotte will have the same urgency Miami has to win at home as they been not good this year. Hoping they will get same result = L.

[jiwos2m1]

other people are actually looking at my picks??!!!! i thought they look at jt's and click out. just kidding. record is 26-12 now on posted play believe it or not record is better on my actual plays with the book. almost 70% on posted play and most of the losses were close with last second shots and ots. did you actually play all those you posted??!! man! thats just crazy trying to figure out if you won or not.

 

[alienx]

yeaaa, it is hard to figure the units. Look at the amounts I am playing. I know I won about $250. The most is posted on this thread. Had another parley hit partially too. Risked only less then 100 (I think). Once again came pretty close to hitting a 6 team parley(half a bucket on the Bucks game).
Ohh well. I am up. Better yet I think I am grasping the teams strenghts in NBA.

PS. To ignore somebody w/ 26-12 posted record is not smart. There are alot of smart people here. I am sure you are appreciated (in my book at least).
