I've had some bad beats but this one takes the cake. Pacers straight up tanked two games in a row. Looks like they just want an easier matchup with the Hawks first round but seriously. I would rather see them bench their starters with "injuries" like the heat or spurs than to go out and waste 48 minutes away.

I feel you my friend, I did much research on this game taking the game under at 221 1/2 in a teaser. I was 100000% positive tired Dallas would get a butt whoopin and wouldn't be able to keep up. I went 6-0 this week for teasers and I decided to double up on this one, wrong move. Killed my week. I don't understand how in the first quarter Cousins is out and they're up by 9, then Cousins somes in and they go down by 6 letting the old Mavs drop 41 |

Worst coaching job ever by PJ Carlisimo. Fighting for HOMECOURT and the fourth spot in the east and the tie breaker for the season series between the bulls and you have Humphries, Bogans, Evans, Blatche and Watson on the court with the bulls cutting the lead down????? Yes I lost money on the game, but i'm a big fan of basketball and if that isn't one of the worst coaching jobs i've seen in crunch time of the season I dont know what is. Williams and Lopez didnt even get in till 6 minutes of the fourth. Ridiculous

I got hurt last week too, worst week by far, lost the equivalent of my one months rent. Just gotta regroup, identify what choices you made as far as wager costs and trends. This week im on the comeback playing it safe with teasers during conference play in NCAABB and for NBA playing game game totals and ML only so I can hedge out if crap hits the fan. |

In my opinion if you're getting 5 points on your teaser I would take the Nuggets down to -5 1/2. I like the height, strength, running ability and coaching skills of the Nuggets. If the Nuggets have a 15+ point lead at the end of the game when their starters sit and the bench dwindles the lead down, it shouldn't hit 5. Although it could stay above 15 if its bench vs. bench because Andre Miller can control the tempo. I wouldn't even touch Atlanta Brooklyn, who knows what game youll get from both teams. I would take the Spurs -7. With no Curry they cant spread the floor and Duncan likes to school up and coming forwards so David Lee wont be a factor. |

I know players keep the spreads, over under, individual props in mind. Post game interview last week Ravens-Broncos Ray Lewis mentioned them being 9 point underdogs, even if they were just playing for the win. Im sure players (especially in the NBA where egos run wild) mess with scores once in a while by throwing up stupid shots, fouling or not fouling in wierd spots and whatever else. Also players and refs have to get side money in the NBA. If someone offered me double my game check, I would miss a couple baskets or two, or call/not call fouls to not cover spreads, but not to the point where my team would lose the game. Thats what the moneyline is for

Thats the same scenario I saw in my head. USC has been hot in the second half of games most of the season, I expected it to come down to free throws in the end. Oregon +4 teaser capped the day for my 4 teamer.

I took this as well, USC has been managing to turn it on in the second halfs so I went more sure with the half -2. Also have the ducks in a teaser +4 |

With the strength of Bledsoe and the height of Crawford, Clippers can slow Lin the point. If Vinny was smart he would start Barnes and put him on Harden. The rest is up to the Clippers offense. If they can keep it close with the starting 5, the bench should be able to come in and get em ahead. I'm buying in small +4 at -150

Right now I would think NCCA bball is harder to win money, teams expected to make the tournament or bubble teams front load their schedules with small conference less talented teams. They have inflated winning records and stats then conference play happens and teams with 3 wins are beating 10 win teams. Notre Dame is one of those teams. 14 wins so far but gonna have a hell of a time finishing out the year will 15 Big East games |

When I play NBA I look at matchups first and foremost, then other player statistics but never past book statistics. I only play small (under $100) but it usually works for me. For example the Magic against the Clippers. Afflalo realized in the second half no one could guard him so he went off for 27. There's no one on the clippers with the size and strength to match him plus the Clippers perimeter D isnt too good and Orlando loves the 3 ball so they caught up. In addition Chris Paul loves to use the full 24 sec at the end of games so if they dont score or get the off. rebound the lead will eventually go down. I would've taken Orlando at +10 or ML the Clips |

Someones with me on Grant Hill lol. I got the Clips at +5 1/2, hopefully they pull it out

Too add to that, that means more time for Barnes (if he doesnt make stupid fouls) and Grant Hill, yes I said it, Grant Hill to have more time on the defensive end

Chris Paul being hurt means a more uptempo game by the clips. Not sure if the Memphis bigs will be able to keep up with the pace

Lillard can be a pesky point guard. Hickson runs the floor well and gets alot of clean up easy buckets off the bench. Aldrige is starting to come around. They have length and size on defense. The Rose Garden can start to go crazy if they smell blood. I think Portlands size will force KD and Westbrook to shoot more midrange and short jumpers. I can see Portland winning this one just based on a funky matchup |
