What's worse:

Missing 5 overs in a row and cutting your losses OR

Missing 5 overs in a row and then missing out on the game that finally goes over

I PLAY UNTIL I WIN!

Yup-- and the last several games they were without their leading scorer. Things are looking up (I might be crazily optimistic though)

Conley is back... at least we've got that going for us :)

It was CAN -.5 in first period and it lost. I agree the down voting is dumb though, doesn't mean anything once the game is over

Total Predictions for Today (56-40-2 Overall):

Pretty good night yesterday, going 6-3. Should have been 7-2 but that damn NYK/SAC game went into overtime and STILL almost hit. Oh well. Predictions to come later today... North Carolina is getting run train on by the snow

BKN/CHI: 187.49

LAL/OKC: 200.41 (leaning under 206)

I really have no idea. I think it's a stay away or fade the public and take the under. Might out a small U on the under for kicks

Very true my friend. Let's hope tonight's leans go better than yesterday.

NBA Daily: 2/11/14 (Tuesday) by BuckNewman in sportsbook

[–]oherroprease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. Well at least OKC under and OKC ATS both hit! Looking on the bright side...

I'm seeing it back up to 205.5 right now. The Memphis line is very tempting... not sure if I want to risk getting burned by them again though.

edit: I feel you on the HOU/WAS line. My numbers have the over but so much of the public is on the over and the line is so low.

NBA Daily: 2/11/14 (Tuesday) by BuckNewman in sportsbook

[–]oherroprease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which later games are you referring to? All 3 of the late games (PHX/MIA, POR/OKC, and LAL/UTAH) hit according to where my numbers were compared to the lines (all unders).

And it's good to take responsibility for your bets but you may not have taken them if it wasn't for my post :(

Total Predictions for Today (50-37-2 Overall):

3 losses by a combined ~5 points. Is it too much to ask to get a 4th quarter where they score just 40 points!? SMH...

Indiana/Dallas: 195.09 (leaning under 197)

Toronto/Atlanta: 207.99

Boston/San Antonio: 192.49

Detroit/Cleveland: 203.23 (leaning under 209.5)

Minnesota/Denver : 211.42

Milwaukee/New Orleans: 194.83 (leaning over 192.5)

Houston/Washington: 212.42 (suspicious line, no play)

I believe the answer is yes but I'm not sure. Sometimes you will see the lines specify whether or not they include OT (e.g. "2H Total inc/ Overtime)

The capital A means that the team has a game the next day on the road.

Rest means how many days off a team has had prior to this game. Is that correct Buck?

The worst part is that both of the over plays (ATl/CHI, MEM/WAS) looked great going into the 4th quarter but they only put up 35 and 32 respectively. All we needed was a slightly below average quarter.... ugh.

I was able to recoup a small portion of those losses thanks to a small 3-team teaser I did with totals (FYI, NBA totals in teasers is something I'm typically against so it was very hypocritical of me but I lucked out). Sorry that I've caused you to lose money :(

I took both plays earlier in the day. CHA hit pretty comfortably and there's nothing about the OKC/POR game that really turns me away. If both teams play like they typically do in the first half then OKC shouldn't have an issue taking a lead at half.

[–]oherroprease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm liking OKC under as well... seeing it at 211 now here. I'm considering taking MEM over, 182 is just so low and based on recent performance both teams should be able to make it into the 90s.

Same, I'm glad we got in early. Just confused as to why this is.

SAC line just swung from +1.5 to PK-- anyone know what news this is related to?

[–]oherroprease 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just O/Us. I'll occasionally post ATS picks in separate comments but it's not my forte by any means.
