I hope it will go through. I have POR too as you know

Shoot I wish i would have taken the points with the Bucks instead of being greedy and playing them on the ml. Got the Bulls to come in for me off the record so that was nice.  Seems like NBA might be getting back to normal again.

I was thinking the same thing powercore, but then I realized it was only one night and how the NBA can turn on a dime. Lets hope it stays this way for awhile, much more predictable!

Green is win, red are losers. Ask whatever you like nixx. We don't consider asking if the green are winning of the day as talking shiet. If you want to know the definition of that just read lgodgula's post, or whatever the hell his name is!

Before asking something as provocative as that - the decency requires to list a page or two back to check it. I'm sure if you did that - you would not ask that in such conotation

After Rondo injury BOS is 8-1 going into all-star break including an upset win over MIA and a 116-95 rout of LAL in Boston. BOS averaging 99.7 & allowing 92.7 in last 9 games. Pierce & Garnett are averaging 33.6 pts/gm while Terry & Green are averaging double digits. Their defence is starting to look like the Celtics we know, last five opponents held to 41.1 % shooting going into the game last night vs Denver. 
As for the Lakers, Howard has not helped defensively, partly because of the shoulder injury he's been battling and partly because of bad coaching. LAL allowing 105.2 pts/gm and 48.6 % shooting last 5 games before the all-star break. 
BOS is 16-7-1 ATS last 24 meetings & 4-1 last 5 meetings in LA. BOS is on a 7-2 ATS run since losing Rondo. 
LAL are 4-10 last 14 gms vs teams with SU winning records. 

BOS Celtics +7 1/2

Let's make it productive on top of interesting. Try to post all the plays at once so I can have more time to cap than to administer. I appreciate your time and effort. GL
Formatting is getting better gents but 1/4 of plays last night did not have an explanation, I do believe that is the purpose of this exercise/contest our friend Mavin has put together. Anyone can throw out plays and hit 50% but we want to be at 60% or better thus cash in your pocket. 
I've found listing my reasonings and trends has allowed me to limit my plays and therefore successful more often then not.

Hey everyone look at me!!  I make money month after month on betting by following these easy steps!!

.....oh crap I'm not doing that well


Hey everyone look at all these other guys that are doing well in MY THREAD!!!

....oh crap they aren't doing that well either


Hey everyone look at how great I am at binary options!!!


This thread has officially jumped the shark, and has become useless.  It was about following certain gambling principles to make money for you Mavin...now it is a clusterfu*k of about 20 different people posting random plays with barely any analysis.  You defer the attention away from the ONE THING that this thread was created for (as much as you may want to deny it)....YOUR BETTING RECORD AND MAKING MONEY BETTING ON SPORTS.




Good day sir

Reasoning 
Over 196.5  NO Hornets - CLE Cavaliers  - 

Just saw the Eric Gordon is a no go in this game - I will not be playing it anymore. 
Please see updated list below.

OKC Thunder -3

Purely a trend play on OKC not losing back to back games.  Additionally, they have played Harden tough the previous two outings and I expect them to take it to Houston again tonight - even without Perkins.
  
Under 187.5  PHI 76ers - MIN Timberwolves

Philadelphia has problems scoring and can't spread out the opponents defense without Young and Richardson playing.  Minnesota gets Kirilenko back tonight who clogs up the paint even more and typically isn't an offensive threat.  I have this game between 175 and 180.

Under 205 PHO Suns - GS Warriors

Phoenix is on the end of a back to back where they typically score between 90-95 points.  I'm expecting a much better defensive showing by GS tonight at home which should keep Phoenix under 90.  Golden State hasn't been shooting their typical percentage from 3pt land and if that keeps up tonight, I see this game between 190-195.
