I know very little about betting the NBA regular season. I killed the NBA playoffs last year in my first go around betting the league because I hammered the Nuggets and Heat all postseason. So this will be a little experiment. If I get crushed early in the season I'm going to back off. There's a lot of low spreads with these middle of the road teams with new acquisitions right now so it feels like it should be easy but we'll see.
lol--I thought u were nba expert--back to football, I just bet 2x on Auburn +145 ML vs Nwestern--what r u thinking?
Well. I know a decent amount about the NBA but not a ton on betting the reg season lines and how back to backs affect things, players out and rest, etc. Hope you didn't bet a ton on Denver and apologies if you did man. Not sure what to think about Auburn tbh. They fired Malzahn before the bowl game which felt like an overreaction - I always liked him as a coach. Could go either way. Do they rally around that decision or fold?
Nice hit but it was Sam's back up that got you there lol. That kid looked incredible. Also, I did warn you about Miami. At least they didn't get embarrassed.
Yeah man. They fought back. Should've just joined you in pounding the over. If that freshman receiver catches that deep ball they probably win. You got any thoughts on Oklahoma and Florida tonight? Trask is without Pitts and the top two receivers Grimes + Toney.
If those guys were playing I would say you couldn't make the over high enough for me not to bet it. I'm leaning OK right now. Dell like FL doesn't want to be there after the disappointing end to their season.
Definitely. Trask struggled without Pitts and without his top two wideouts as well makes it a struggle. But I can't see him not battling. I liked OK at -3/3.5. If this thing creeps to 7 as it's trending I might lean Florida. Big draft showcase for Trask - he'll be battling out there.
Wisconsin has been incredibly disappointing this year and FL has a punchers chance IMO. Upset special at value price: 12/30/2010:26 AM Placed - 2 Team ParlayTo Win +1128 Florida (+215)(315) Florida Gators @ (316) Oklahoma Sooners Wake Forest (+290)
lol-- They put up 50 points on NC--No way the badgers could do that--The loss to Louisville has me perplexed tho--you're probably right but WI has been so disappointing I'm just going to ride that today--lol--GL
I was going to take the Badgers -9.5, lost track of time and got to take them at +3. Thank god for Call of Duty.
This total has plummeted down to 64.5. Going to see if it goes any lower in the next hour or so but I have to imagine the Gators are going to score regardless. Oklahoma's defense is good but just like Oklahoma State it's inflated against some bad Big 12 offenses like TCU, Baylor, West Virginia, etc. The +7.5 is such a big overreaction but I'm going to hold off. The Gators getting +11/12 live if Oklahoma goes up a score is prob a good bet.
I'm going with this tonight/tomorrow: 12/30/205:51 PM Placed - 2 Team ParlayTo Win +145 Oklahoma (-320)(315) Florida Gators @ (316) Oklahoma Sooners Ball State +10 (-115) I think 10 is too much here--BSU could win this.
Stay away from NBA during regular season. Trust me on this. Too many bet related performances. Play offs are a different animal. Not surprised you did well in the playoffs because players play to win. Regular season not so much. European betting people know this very well
I do not think it's worth it at -305. The point spread swung 11 points which in my eyes is ridiculous. It reacted as if Trask isn't playing, not his receivers. I think Oklahoma wins but I don't think they're exceedingly better.
Thank JV. How about your picks for Friday? Alabama covers 20 or no? How about Clemson -7.5/ I want to sell my house and bet on Clemson covering 7.5 but can't decide.
Don't sell it just take out a second mortgage. I haven't really decided which way I'm going. Forget any sort of advancing for Notre Dame. This is a MASSIVE game for Notre Dame to not get embarrassed. They're 0-6 in BCS era style games since 1998 and have usually gotten embarrassed in them. 20 points is so damn many but Alabama is capable. Dabo has done nothing but fuel the Ohio State fire the past three weeks. He's taunting them. They're going to be jacked up. And if not for a targeting call on Trevor Lawrence last year that completely swung momentum, Clemson loses that ball game.
