I locked in Raps to win the east at 6-1 a while ago...probably one of my sharpest nba futures ever...Cavs i think were -140 and Celts were +140 at the time...a posted it here and think a few other spots in the mains...hope people jumped on board when the line was oozing value...now we sit back and enjoy the show called the nba playoffs.

Last nights game was simply one of the best sporting events ive experienced in NBA...it actually felt like the finals...and perhaps was simply a preview of whats to come in June.

Raps ML

Grizzlies are partially the reason I stopped betting on nba. Lmao. I see no value with that team. These guys might have a better opinion

Humping dolphin guy, creator of the archived porn thread, has Dallas. His rationale is usually "no way should such and such be favored by such and such so I'll take em."

Also they got 3 day rest advantage which is on that ESPN article with the rest alerts. so seems like casual bettors have been paying more attention to that info and lines have been shaded to counter that

Think under 158 in Buff,-Tol.is a good play,3 games in a row and Buff.could ot shoot well yesterday against Kent St.,I think Tol.plays better so took FH under 73.5 and if sec,half is in the 80s will go under on that also.

Good job ODB on Virginia Kansas and sd st. Was with you on the aztecs, against on Kansas, and didn't want to touch Virginia unc since I had Carolina in a conference tourney pool which didn't work out for me. 
That rest article on ESPN had two wire to wire never in doubt wins with Dallas and Miami

Thanks, hotrod. Got greedy with usc. I could’ve sworn I posted Kentucky. I think I got sick of it saying error time and gave up refreshing the page this morning. Whatever. Solid plus day altogether. I was tweaking about San Diego. That was probably the most lopsided board on the slate today. Can’t wait for the dance to start! I think Kansas takes it. I may put s future on that right now

Eyeballing:

Tennessee pk...i think Kentucky peaked yesterday vs Bama, whereas the Vols are just cruising confidently upwards and onwards...do they beat Kentucky a third time already?

Davidson +2, ML OTB

Anyone have any bracketology expertise here regarding Davidson? Do they get in only if they win today? Obviously RIsland would get an at large bid if they lose today right? Clearly one team here has far more at stake being Davidson...i realize these angles dont work as planned all the time, but something is saying Davidson here with the line only being 2.

pb, teamrankings.com has a pretty good bracketology column.

i am with you on davidson. line looks like a total sucker's trap. i really like kentucky, though. they have been getting doubted since their rocky start to the year. these guys look like a solid, well rounded team. gonna dig further into that one before i make a decision.

first pick is houston +4.5

these guys are going to be a big sleeper int he dance as well. cincy has been falling behind the last few games to very sub par teams. now put them up against houston who is proving a point to everyone that they aren't messing around

Rhode beat them at home by DD's...Had them beat on the road

a few  weeks   ago...until a comical collapse...

Rhode was +1 ,5 at Davidson.....line makes sense...

If the Rams care they win this game....

That Ivy game line was a bit of a fish as well,hoping for something at half to come up on that one,short line was strange for sure.
I would think Davidson is on the bubble or one of last in at this point,20-11 in their conf.might not do it but RI in for sure.
