2015-2016 NBA Contest

Moving on, Top 25 will have to make a minimum of 10 plays by end of season April 13 to make next Cut. Write-ups appreciated by all.

No live betting, no ML higher than -110, no buying points, use available lines and totals at exact time of post (no “I got this line last night”). So basically ATS and totals, team totals 1st qtr, 1st half, full game and 2nd half, player props all good to go. Champion will receive a “2015-2016 NBA Forum Champion” t shirt provided by me, maybe a hat too depending how much we make tailing haha. May the best Capper win!

thanks mrnotorius good going yourself, going to lock this in before it moves on me

under 209 Hawks/Wiz it was tragic that Atl players were boasting about their defense before they got smoked at home by outside looking in Wiz, now with a home and home I expect a full on playoff atmosphere in Washington. Wiz have hung their hats on defense as well to crawl back in this race and I can't imagine either team letting the other get any sort of offensive flow without calling time outs. All I need is that one 40pt qtr, moreover I don't see the winner being over 104. These teams played some tight under paced games in last year's playoffs and I expect more of the same tonight.

dhtakemoto 27-23-1 LLLLW  54%

Unbelievable 4 losses in a row.  3 turnovers by Grizzlies in the last 1:30 of the game so they couldn't score 2 points against the Lakers???

Get me back on the winning track please with Philadelphia 76ers at Denver Nuggets OVER 213.5

U214 Philly/Denver.

Philly scores the least amount on the road out of any team in the NBA (96 points).  Denver averages 106 points at home. While neither team is great on defense, I still feel like this line is pretty high, expecting both teams to break 107 points each is optimistic. I'll take the under here.

Good luck all.

Players playing in a more cohesive way:
Playoffs for some, others opportunity to
get/extend an NBA contract...
Tough Treading Today.

Not my picks, but these may interest:
Blazers 1st Quarter -1.5
Knicks 1st Quarter +2.5
Suns 1st Quarter -1.5

I'm crazy like that Pendo, I have a different favorite team every night haha

Just some thoughts and other plays: how does TWolves not whoop it up on Sac tonight? they are in the scoring mood after that 42pt outburst in 1st qtr vs. Grizz then took 2 hard closes losses at Hou then home hosting the Warriors, without Boogie I see Minny going off reminiscent of their 138 pt explosion on the Nets (68 1st half) and 124 hosting the Celtics (59 1st half). Sac offense should be accommodating and run along with Minny and Kings haven't been in a good old fashion shoot em up in a long while, KAT is interviewing for rookie of the year and should have a monster game so I'm playing Minny TT over 58 1st half and 113 game

Jazz/Hou this should be a playoff atmosphere similar to Atl/Wash with lots on the line I'm on the under 201

Tor/Bos I'm still not a big believer in Raps away from home, they had they softest sched for a month at home big fat lobbed softballs (just like Det is now and Cha did for a while) and now face a well coached team they've bested three times already. Coach Stevens will want to ensure this home win before the long roadie to set the tone as Bos has not done this transition well in the past. Just cannot see Raps beating Bos 4 times this season and twice in 1 week so playing Celtics +1

good night to be alive

Don't see a bunch of points on the scoreboard tonight for the Bulls. Neither team lights up the nets. Believe neither team hits in the hundreds. I will take

Bulls/Knicks under 202
