First thing for me is to wach line in GSW-NOH game, since the opening line (188) was very suspicious... It should be at least 10 points higher according to my reaserch... Honestly, I don't understand why it is so low (Lee's injury???). Someone can explain that? Again, for me it looks like invitation for beting over...
My early lean is UNDER in this game, will watch the line movement...
Record update:
2-0 yesterday
8-7 overall.
GL to All
A couple things regarding that GSW/NO game - The warriors have not been scoring at all for a while and NO for the past 7 games have had a better D than that both Indiana and Memphis. GSW depends too much on Curry and can't score with their bench, who will likely see increased action tonight due to the back to back games. Wouldn't be surprised if this ended along the lines of 93-88, i.e. way under the line.

hey sghf...i could care less what you think of my betting...
my record more then speaks for itself...yes i make a bet like that when i start 1-5...cause i like to try and cover....
and yes that is because I am better then that...I get excited when i have a good chance to win a big bet....and try and cover for my losses...if you played the way i do, I'm sure you would understand better...parlays have more then covered for me in the past...how can i post a parlay that I made after i started losing....lol

dude, this is at least the 3rd time (and maybe more) that i've seen you do this.. honestly i couldn't care less, as i view this thread for the info and not the picks.. but many others are too lazy too read and just look for the "records" and then follow the picks, which also is fine in my eyes, but i feel i have to point this out as i've seen it multiple times in this one thread.. After being in the forum all evening, and posting your straight plays which do well or don't (thats not the point) but a few times when ur singles don't seem to be going the way you'd like and it appears you might have a lil negative day.. (WHICH IS MORE THAN FINE BTW, since you do add lots of great info to the pregame chat) then after all the results are in you all of a sudden throw this huge 20-1 hit parlay that you played but yet there was no mention of it earlier at all... come on dude.. your better than that!!
Anyways not hating just pointing out something that you really shouldn't be doing in this great thread.. the pregame info and pregame chatter that you provide is plenty valuable enough bro, no need to throw these 20-1 miracles that you hit but forgot to post after the games are over!
lets keep this thread all positive, honest, and an all around great daily very helpfull capping tool for each and everyone of us!
Hey Melos/ You know how much I respect and like you as a person as well. What I'm saying is not under any way to diminish everything you do or kind of a person you presented yourself here.
All I want to say that even if you will have losing days sometimes and even few days in a row - only stupid people will dismiss you or your insights. Free yourself from need to be perfect and then....you'll be perfect. Trust me on the buddy. I, personally don't care if you also post your parlays from 3 years ago. Only reason I add to this post is that I feel that you have a need to perfect yourself each time and that is a burden I want you to be free of.

anyways since everyone wants to focus on my bets, instead of their own for some reason....i finished 5-6 between yesterday and the pick posted the day b4 on my (posted picks b4 the games)....so i'm 49-34-3...on nba picks...alot of close losses yesterday...okc by one last night as well because westbrook missed one of two freethrows.....
most would say a loss is a loss in the end it doesn't matter...but I disagree, no, there isn't a bookie that is going to hand back your money because you came close, it's not horseshoes or hand grenades...
however I like to go back and look at my picks after games...I am still happy with toronto picks, (they blew the game)...boston and chicago under (went into overtime to screw under)....toronto/philly under (15 points in a little over last minute and then game went to overtime).....and okc (westbrook misses freethrow)....I feel a lot differently actually, when I know I made terrible picks....and I know Mavin you will always say a loss is a loss and I agree of course....but in the long run of betting I need to have consistency, and to have consistency you need to bet right...you shouldn't be way off on the bets you lose as well...
so no there is no medal or money for 2nd place or losing in betting
but consistency is key....BOL TONIGHT GUYS....
and honestly people you can say whatever you want about my picks...I can't remember the last time I have attacked someone for the way they pick, or the picks they have had....
the only people i have got mad at, is the people that have came on this thread and bashed Mavin or this thread in general...

Hey, Melos, it's not like that... I think everyone who follows this thread from the begining really appreciate your work, your thoughts, your insights... Remember that we are on the same team, and no one is trying to offend you. It's just to keep this thread moving in its original direction, which I believe is methodology and whole the process of picking team A instead of team B... That's all. Thank you for your understanding and good luck.

Lastly, the reason you see those parlays after i have a losing day...is because that is when i make a parlay to cover for that day.....I can show you on that bet, that i made it after i started 2-5......
i make parlays like that usually when I am losing, to try and get back and more when I am losing....it has worked for me more times then not in the last 2 years...and when they do hit it covers your bets for a long time...
I do however see where you are coming from in it seeming...oh look he had a losing day and suddenly he has this parlay....it's not like that I just don't post the parlays when I am losing, and then miss the parlay....like i said on my post there was another parlay that i missed as well, besides the one I almost hit....
but from now on, its fine...in a way you guys are right
I will just post my picks and comment on the picks I made beforehand.....
bol tonight guys...

Mavin - Thanks for starting this thread. Although I don't always agree with your picks and have been on the losing end of when I've decided to tail you, this thread has taught me a bunch of things to look for and think about and most importantly, the ability to cap my own games, which I have been doing successfully so far.
I wanted to get your opinion or possibly start a discussion on the correlation between the total points and the spreads between two teams. I've begun analyzing the two and may have stumbled upon something.
