Following you on this one Scal...you are one of those guys that if you show this much confidence in a pick...I'm along for the ride.

Most other dipsticks on here don't realize that...and I have no problem cashing in on others stupidity.  Wish I got it at a lower number like you though!

I'm not a big Scalabrine fan but I give the guy props for publicizing his bankroll...now if only the other 99% of this forum would be as honest.

Bottom line, if you have a much bigger (consistent) bankroll than that, you probably would not be on this site often as it is more like a daycare with a few good supervising adults.

GL Scalabrine, I hope you win and I hope waiting didn't screw you over too much.
But, if you like it THAT much ML, no?

Drew! Buddy! 8 posts! Thank you so much for being the voice of authority! I know we can all trust your learned musings because, obviously, you have been there, and done that........

Way to put Scal in his place! You, too, had an excellent write up and explained each one of your points to the fullest...........

........................or not.

@CM - thanks. I had the whole offseason to examine this game and within days of it, a big trade brought a new angle to it.

I didn't get a lower number though. I'm gonna be in at 5.5.

@salty - believe me, it's that good a pick. I don't go crazy betting anything and everything just to lose it all in the end.

@drewy Oh boy! Numbers to back it all
up!

What's your number on Alex Len's performance tonight against Robin Lopez? Did you run a projected simulation based on his stats at Maryland or did you go even further back to his Ukranian roots? Boy what a program ya got there! Smoke must be rising up out of the back of your monitor with all that advanced statistical analysis!

Who needs a brain when you can press a return key and get a printout that says:

WINNER ...............SUNS

im the hedge type of guy.

As of right now, i got 10 units on Portland-3 and its a heavy exposure for me. With a small hedge i would lower the exposure and get a chance to profit even bigger.

2-3 units hedge but at no lower than+6

Dude, I would DIE to have Portland -3. Would never hedge a tremendous line like that.

Scal:  Though I go the other way on this (and against CM Johnson as well), your points are incredibly solid.   You've definatly got me thinking my only chance is Bledsoe and Dragic create enough issues to get the lesser Phoenix players scoring.  Plus, I like Jeff Hornecek.  Terry Stots has been a perennial sub-.500 coach.   Hornecek has thinking man's over achieving nba pro written all over him.  Best of luck.  Keep up the good work.  You made me think a lot about this game.   On paper, Portland should win by 20.  But, then, the hapless Lakers should've lost last night but their second string of no-names crushed the starting five of the vaunted Clippers.  Go Suns!
