Irving to James, James to Love, Love to James.... the chemistry was ON in that first quarter and the high octane starting crew lived up to the expectations of the entire nation but so did the reserves. The 2nd quarter was an absolute flop due to a lackluster rotation and the Cavs have certainly got a lot of work to do to find out what works. As with the rest of the world, they will be in question until proving themselves but it shouldnt take long. With three 35mpg all stars it wont take much to figure this thing out, I cant wait till they do. I look foward to seeing LeBron frustrated by Popovich n crew in the finals yet again.
On a positive note, the Mavs WERE clicking on all cyclinders . Can you say wam bam thank you mam!?! This team has the pieces to realistically be a threat to the Spurs. If Harris can play like the Harris of old then they are going to be putting up some big numbers all year long.
Clippers struggled with shooting woes but the defense forced enough turnovers to be able to come out on top but not enough to cover the first half spread...
1-2 Last night... tonights picks to come within the hour.

1-5 last night 2-7 on the year, down 5 units but I dont mess around and I cant stand being down so tonight im uppin the ante from a 1 unit play to a 10 unit play and thats gonna be on the Mavericks to cover the -1.5 spread at New orleans... game on.

Wow.... thats all.

Well Mavs got the job done but not without a big push from Nawlins and I've GOT to say, those Pelicans are gonna be a handful and even far too much to handle for a lot of teams. This years lopsided NBA is going to be very very profitable for the sharps out there. After throwing out a couple of "feeler" 1 unit bets, I pulled out the 10 unit hammer and hit it hard with a Mavs team that I am very confident in.
So that makes my record 3-7 and UP 5 units to 55units.
Just to clarify, my starting bankroll every year is a casual $500 @ $10 a unit for 50 units. I dont make enough to put more than that in and if I lose it, I consider myself a loser that year and wont throw in anymore money. Ive just got much more serious priorities elsewhere and will not risk more than I can afford to lose. With that being said, ive turned $500 into $15,000 in 6 weeks betting basketball so I cant help but give it a whirl every year. Also, I love to write so this is a win win for me. Ill keep track of it all and hope to make a run that has never been seen before. Ever.... Dont we all?

Well I got myself in a little bit of a bind here with the chase but I'm not stopping now. Its black or red tonight for 14 units and I'm betting on black.
Brooklyn 1st half -3.5 --->14 Units

Record 3-10---> down 6 units to 44

Well balanced play by Brooklyn last night in their debut game this year at Barclays Arena against the starless Thunder-Dump. Lopezs return struggled early on but he finished strong and had an excellent start to his return from his season ending injury last year. I regret getting myself into the chase system but what a game to capitalize on, be hard pressed to find a better line within the next week.
The Kings were only a small part of my play last night. I was moreso fading the Nuggets... I live in Denver and able to follow them closely and will be doing so Friday when Cavs come to town. I do however really like this Kings team for some reason and I think any team with good chemistry is going to contest the Nuggets who havent even paased earth science smh....
Question... Whats Kirilenkos status? I love this Brooklyn team, especially if he is performing at 25mpg...

Record 5-10 ---> up 10 units to 60

Nawlins got it done last night making it 3 in a row for me but then I went wishy washy on the Wizards Knicks game, totally going against my original analysis which ended up happening. The Wizards ran New York into the ground in that third quarter. I guess I can give myself a pat on the back for only going 1 unit after winning 3 earlier on the Pelicans. So overall, a winning night for me but a definite brain fart on that Knicks play... it happens, you just have to acknowledge where you went wrong and move on. Preferably in the right direction which IS INDEED where im heading UP.
Record 6-11 ---> UP 12 units to 62 units, thats 24% in 6 days. Ill take it.

Finished the week strong at 4-2 after my stupid chase system which I did end up capitalizing on with Brooklyns blowout of the Thunder.
Anyways...
8-12 for the season ---> Up 14 units to 64 (?28%)
I am going to "recalibrate" my units back to 50. I started with $500 and 50units at $10 a unit and now have $640 and will adjust my units from 64 back down to 50 like so... 640÷50= 12.8
The reason for this is that I work very well with 50 units. I will recalibrate to 50 every week and shoot to be up at least 5 units or 10%... As with you guys, this is trial and error but I HOPE to make a run that no man has seen before turning $500 into $40k comfortably this season.
