ATS: 118-84-6 (+38.1)
OU: 65-55-2 (+3.2)
ML dogs: 4-8 (+2.05)



Thunder

Since 1996, teams that covered but lost SU in the first two matchups of the season are 1-20 SU and 7-12 ATS as a road dog when their opponent is coming off a loss as a favorite. If you remove that teams are playing an opponent off a loss as a favorite, teams playing on the road as a dog off a road win are 1-12 SU (-13.9) and 4-8-1 ATS.

Since last season, teams coming off two road games where they covered the spread in both are 28-38-1 ATS in the regular season when playing as a road dog. Teams coming off a road loss as a favorite playing against a team coming off a road win are 89-12 SU and 65-36 ATS since the 2005 season if they are a favorite of more than 6 points.

The Thunder in their short franchise history are 27-3 SU (+12.0) and 21-9 ATS as a home favorite after a loss as a favorite. This season, they are 4-0 (+20.8 ppg). They are good, and they are really good when they are mad.


Wolves

Home favorites coming off a double digit home win playing a team coming off a home win against a divisional opponent are 56-28 ATS since the 2003 season. Teams seeking double revenge as a home favorite of three or less are 23-9-1 ATS since the 2010 season. Teams playing as a road dog in a third straight divisional matchup are 18-27 since the 2005 season. Teams coming off a four or more game losing streak that they broke with a home win, are 30-10 SU and 25-14 ATS since the 2008 season when playing at home as a favorite against a conference opponent.


Thunder -8
Wolves -2.5
Mavs-Thunder OVER 208.5
Pacers-Bulls UNDER 176


Good luck...

[eeeerock]

Thanks as always HH,I'm leaning to Wizards anything really going against me there as far as what you can dig up queen!!!

 

[RICEMAN]

Looking at the Oklahoma City schedule they have only lost 2 games in a row only once this year. That coming on Christmas Day vs. Miami by 6 points. After all their other 10 loses they have come back strong winning by an average of 15.7 points. Only once all year did they win after a lose by less than tonignts 8 point spread.

Wow, that Pacers game is fast and furious - sheeshe!


Guys, win or lose, I am going to take some time off after tonight. I have been neglecting some of my work and need to get caught up on a lot of projects. I just feel that I need a break.

I try to be a positive person, but I was really hurt by the comments made about me yesterday, in a forum that I hardly ever even frequent, completely out of context. I am a very sensitive person, and I honestly don't need the bashing or rude words in my life. I apologized for what I said, and thought the situation was over. I hope everyone realizes that I have never tried to come across as "better" than anyone else. I have really tried to just help people out with good info, and let them decide what they want to play.

I'm not looking for any sympathy or people to ask me to stay or anything. I just need some time off to realign. I know that the majority of you appreciate me, and I love chatting with you all. I'm sure I will be back before too long.

I promise that if I have any great 4* angles, I will pop by and make a quick post!

Keep up the winning. Madjacks is a great place.

And, it is time to start my garden for the spring! A good project to rejuvenate.

:toast:

HH,

You must do what you need to do..I didn't even read all the threads just heard there was some knucklehead jumping in with some negativity (he must be a bookmaker and s getting crushed by folks who play your plays...lol) . I just want to say one thing to you. I LOVE HAPPY HIPPO. You're the most level-headed, enjoyable read in this forum, in any sport, hands down. And when you're right, the reasons why you're right usually are spot on in your write-ups. So, take time to yourself and do what you need to, but know that this NBA fan is going to miss your savvy insight and stellar picks on a nightly basis....Wish you all the best HH.. and hope to see you back soon. :toast:

Hi Hippo. I am a long time lurker and follower of your plays, but infrequent poster. First of all, I know you don't want us to say this, and you need a break but please don't leave. :sadwave: Now that I have that out of the way, I want to express my gratitude for the time that you take to post your exhaustive write ups, and the unbelievably solid plays to go along with them. It's hard enough for me to muster up the time and energy just to write this post, let alone having kids thrown into the mix!

As for what happened yesterday, and I watched the whole thing unfold... completely shocked that you and addict were getting called out for basically trying to watch out for others on this site in the most polite way possible. It's really f***ing annoying that some call this 'moralizing.' Perhaps it is easy to lose sight that this site is devoted to a 'hobby' for some, an 'addiction' for others. So yeah, there are some folks that are 'big boys and girls' but there are also some out there that are in dangerous and precarious situations without any of us (and themselves) realizing it. Whether some people want to admit it, this is a community. And a fundamental aspect of community is looking out for one another. So when you politely ask someone to post accurate records. Or when someone else reminds us that the SB is just ONE game. These are not ridiculous things. To be met with the venom they were met with... well :thefinger Frankly, people talking their shit up with either inaccurate records or no record at all drives me up a wall. If you want to be treated like 'big boys and girls' then step up and keep track of what your record is, and don't sit there and tell everybody to HAMMER this play or that play just because you love it. (how'd that work out anyway?) :facepalm: I realize that this is a bit of a caustic post, but frankly you didn't deserve what you got yesterday Hippo. And the fact that it's a contributing factor driving you away from here, even for a little bit is patently ridiculous, and is a total drag for the rest of us who look forward to your plays and write ups daily.

I just want to say thank you for making the difficult choice to step in and say something when someone posts something inaccurate. I've done it before, and it's like you know you're gonna catch shit for it, but you have to do it anyway.

I'll stop talking now, and wish you well. Hurry home soon. All the best. :0074

Guys, you are all too kind. Seriously, it makes me feel very blessed.

I do have a request, please. I am not trying to pile on or villainize anyone for what they said. I was hurt, but I'm just trying to move on. I thank you all for having my back - it means a lot, but I also just want to keep it positive.

That's what this community is all about for me.

I'll take the time I need, and be back when my head is clear.

Best :toast:

Jess, I always enjoy your posts in all the forums. U obviously do not think u are better than others. U are super intelligent, and some might just feel threatened by that. We have had several arguments/differences in opinions, but who wants to always agree with everybody? We aren't robots, and people are going to have different beliefs and opinions. Idk who you are even talking about, but I just wanted to express my respect for you. Steering clear of negative people and negativity in general is what it takes sometimes to stay mentally healthy.
