This is the take away post of the night. No hating on LC, he is a great capper, no question. His weakness, like all of ours, is, by his own admission, not limiting his plays. Read his response above. If he just gave us the cream of the crop he would have to limit his plays by tenfold. I don't know about you guys but that's exactly the kind of discipline I'm looking for.

LC,

Keep doing what you are doing. You are obviously up for the year. I took GSW at -2.5 because I have a personal bias. But you should keep doing what works for you, without listening to these idiots/degenerates that can't manage their bankrolls. Good luck bud

Play made sense to me--.  That said, might be practical to try and avoid Clippers.  BOL

Dude, before you speak why don't you go back to the beginning of the thread and read the back and forth between me, LC and a couple of other guys. There were a lot of reasons not to make this play. One of my rules is, don't bet a weak/bad/however you wanna put it team in good spot against a good team in a bad spot. We all have to have rules and when LC started these threads he said he was looking for good teams in good spots. I didn't think this was one of them, and we disagreed, before the fact.

I just realized that had the Clips beaten the Nuggets like they were supposed to you'd be 0-4 with the Clips. We all have those teams LC, but I still think this was a bad spot to fade them, as was the raptors game (since they don't seem to lose 3 in a row).

But then when you bring your posted plays down tenfold, guys say "not a significant sample size to make a big hubbub about."

It's a no win situation! Really it is!

I will say this about the Clips, I steer clear of fading them. They can beat any team on any night anywhere if they are on. They can also cost you a bundle if you slam them hard and they don't show up. You'll know by halftime whether you won with a team like this.

Appreciate or hate...follow your fade is up to every individual but it's not cool to come piss on someone's thread when your first thought is to look for LC's thread for a daily winner. BOL dude!

I have an assignment for you, LC. I'm no capper, I make my picks based off of what I see, read and hear but I got a great angle on the next Warrior's game. They are quietly getting on a role. That player only meeting and the addition of Blake have made a difference, as the bench is coming to life and the defensive intensity is rising. It's just a matter of time before the offense starts to come around. I have that next game against Chicago circled. Chicago will be home but will be coming off a back to back, meanwhile the dubs get a day of rest between games and maybe even get Lee back. I love taking good teams on the road off of a win when they have a day off playing a team at home that has played the previous night. I think the dubs will be ready for the Bulls, and with fresh legs I don't think the Bulls will be able to keep up on offense. I also think we will get a decent line. I mean if they were -2.5 against the Pistons, what will they be against the Bulls?

I hear you Scal. You are talking from experience, in fact, I think we experienced it on your thread today. People talking about sample size, blah, blah, blah. And you are right about the Clips, they are a heartbreak them. Even tougher to predict than the Heat.

Don't forget Friday too with GS @ the Knicks which is very interesting.

The Knicks will be on a b2b and at home so the line will be somewhere from 5 to 6 depending on how NY play's the Heat the night before.

Yes, yes. Completely forgot about that one. Curry loves the spotlight in NY. Hopefully the Bulls game won't take too much starch out of him.

LC  Don't listen to the haters.  It was a nice spot of the Pels.  We learned that their a mid to bottom tier team.  And the Clippers, though they don't play defense, are a top tier team.  Good defensive teams, like the Grizzlies, can take them down.  The warriors clipped the clips, even in a punked revenge matchup.  Your 13-3 in your five star plays.  Very impressive!  Keep posting please.

Try again today Bro!.  Maybe you will hit 1/6.  You somehow tricked me and tons of others into betting the worst team in the West.  Hard earned friggin money on the bum Pelicans, Is that some kind of sick joke?

Their the worst friggin team in the West and the Clippers have Championship potential and you got me and many other to bet them.  Well done you degenerate

Rested Home Dogs off 2 straight road losses have always been pretty money over the years, but they've been especially good this year going 12-6 ATS or 12-4 ATS if you exclude the 76ers.

The Clippers have been just average on 0 rest this season going 6-6 ATS; however, that drops to 3-6 ATS if they won the first game, 1-4 ATS if both games are on the road, and 0-3 ATS if the second game is against a team they beat earlier in the year. OKC is a tough place to play so i'm sure the Clips will be even more gassed than usual.

The Pelicans have lost 3 straight games however only by a combined 10 points. There playing decent ball and will surely show up for a revenge game against a team that just proved to the world they could go into OKC and win against one of the best teams in the league. Pelicans are also 10-6 ATS off 2 straight losses (6-2 ATS if opponent off a win) and 6-2 ATS off 3 straight losses (4-0 ATS if opponent off a win).

On top of this, the Clippers are in a sandwhich spot having just beat the best team in the west with a Nationally Televised Primetime game against the Rockets on deck. Hard to see the Clippers show up for a game in-between against a shitty Pelicans team they already beat by 13 earlier in the year.

  • Pelicans +4.5 (5x)
  • Pelicans +162 (1x)

NBA January: +48.8 Units
NBA February: +8.85 Units
5+ Unit Plays: 13-2

Hey Lc are you looking for a partners if you are hit me up, we each will give out 1 picks a day for the people.

Clips are IMO the hardest team to read in the nba betting on or betting against them for some reason. When you expect them to blow someone out they barely show up and when you expect a letdown they roll. Still hard to lay off one team though.
