SportsMavin & melosjumper7, I'd just like to thank you both for bringing a breath of fresh air and professionalism to this site......I am so glad that I found your thread and am able to read about relevant info regarding picks......you guys are great in that you work as a team and bounce your ideas off one another and others that participate......kinda remind me of the early days of two guys on the baseball thread that chased series and were very successful.......I hope that you'll both stick around for a while!!!

Well,

after three days of winning, a loss came.

I hate myself for betting on LAL and NYK because I knew they are highly unreliable... But I thought this was their night, finally...

I did win some, but lost many more.

1.
                                                             odds (decimal) 
Washington - Dallas                   x2          1,45
New York - Portland                     2          4,00    (parlay)
WIN

2.

Washington - Dallas                    x2          1,45
New Orleans - Atlanta 1st half      1x          1,64 
WIN

3.

Washington - Dallas                    x2          1,45
WIN

4.

Washington - Dallas                    x2          1,45
LALakers - Phill under 202,5                      1,85
WIN

5.

Dallas -3,5                                                1,85
WIN

I also won 2 bets on Denver, one straight up and one Denver -6,5


That's it.

But I lost all other parlays because I had LAL and NYK on them. Many more.

Not a big loss, but still.

I usually have a rule - never bet on very unreliable teams. But I thought I should give it another try.

Mavin, you always say how important is to stay disciplined. 

I have to stick to my own rules.

MAVIN and MELOSJUMPER7 - congrats!

My today pics are

GSW to win 1u
HOU over 202 2u
Heat under 203 1u
SAS over 202.5 1u
SAS -5.5 1u
PHX -5 1u
GSW over 200 1u

GSW have a lot of free days to prepare for LAC and they are playing very good this season. LAC finally lost one and will lose again on B2B games on road. Last game between them we have 90 FT's and shoud be 50+ today as well. Should be up tempo game and same LAC easy dunks + GSW 3ss on fastbreaks.

HOU increased  tempo and find a good momentum with fast pase stayle. At home they played very well and score 110+ points almost every game. Their defence is not that well and NOH get back Gordon to line up. So increased thair scoring as well. See this about 112-103.

Heat lately lost a lot of momentum and was close to lost 3 in a row, but get lucky and won in OT at Orlando. They are playing slow past offence with a lot walking on the court. Lot of post game and TO for them. It's time to get beck on track and star to do with defence. Both bad rebounding team's and finally Heat will not been killed by 2nd chance points. Same momories for both teams so should be good attitude.

SAS and Bucks will ran and gun as they did in past.  Just hope for 3s falling and 40+ FT attempts. Average defences but solid offence for SAS and good pace for both teams to go over 202+

P76 just won LAL and are B2B so time to lose on thair long trip...

Work gets in my way a little but will try and sneak thoughts out. These are all early leans for me. 

Looking hard at Toronto -3.5
Utah has potential
Possibly Cleveland -4
Have an under hunch in Milwaukee/SA but have done no research
Already on Golden State which Sports Mavin had posted. 

Good luck. Lets have a winning 2013.

Checked my bet slip and the comment was right - GS +1
It does not matter much now as the line is already GS +1.5.

haha he said you are my master....lol

right now i'm leaning
spurs-6....i already bet on this one for spurs-5 yesterday...so thats final for me
houston/no over 202
okc -9
grizzlies/celtics under 179..
suns -4 and a half
gs plus 1.....i think mavin you will agree that more times then not this is a let down spot for the Clippers after hte loss yesterday...

also i wanted to mention Mavin that i know you didnt bet on Philly Lakers game yesterday...but I have a feeling if you did, you would have taken philly plus 9...and i think you should put that in your notes...

i htink only 2 final for me right now are
spurs-5....(once again grabbed line  yesterday)
houston/no over 202

here is why i love the spurs in this game....Number 1 they finally are all healthy again...and Spurs all healthy is extremely dangerous.....this team is 76-24 in their last 100 regular season games......last time they played the BUCKS at home they won by 11...which i know doesnt seem like enough to take a spead by 6 playing away against a good home team in Milwaukee...here is the difference:

in that game in SA the spurs didnt have Kawhi Leonard, Steven Jackson, or Danny Green....and Gary Neal who started for Green was actually injured while he played.....that is a vital part of their line up that they were missing...I expect SA to come out tough and take this one....since they got healthy they have won 6 straight games ..they beat brooklyn by 31...dallas by 25...houston by 6....toronto by 20...dallas again by 38....and NO by 5.........
