I think I used this sort of basis for Oakland the other weekend coming off a big loss, guess what happened? Another huge loss to Miami.
I dont mind the Houston bet, only because I fish for stinky lines. - Jets 'need' this one, Rex's job is on the line, bla bla bla - Oak and SD, division game, Oak had a week off to think about their loss,, bla bla bla We could do this all day. I see your card going 1-2

The line reads Oakland to me,, but living in So. Flo, we've heard all week about the Tannehill drama.. Maybe filben did it on purpose to light up Tanny, I dunno. Ended up just teasing the line a bit more to Oakland. I think Miami just landed earlier in the day, while Oakland has been there since Monday. Praying for a low scoring game, 17-10 would be great.

It's a tough division pick,, but the line to me read pick NYG. Hype for Cousins was a bit much. Also Skins D have been dropping players left and right. I don't diss anyone's picks, everyone has their own reads, but don't write something you believe is 100% regardless of the outcome. Comes off arrogant and then when you lose, idiotic.

Because, those above mentioned plays were obscure?? They were pretty obvious lines.. Nailed two plays last weekend,, you're on your way

I like reading his thoughts on his picks. I even read his for tonight, but I went the other way.. it's no biggie. Anybody can go around trashing people because they're behind a computer. Add discussion early on instead of jumping in with pitchforks after.

I haven't posted on Covers in years, just back to browse a little as I took off from gambling for a bit. Back this year though. Just wanted to say even though LeagueCapper was off tonight, who cares? He offers insight and conversation on his reads. Don't follow anyone blindly people. Last week he did fairly well and played opposite of a few big public plays if I recall correctly and won.
Keep doing your thing, don't listen to the haters.

I don't know what exactly I'm doing wrong. I consider my plays to not be considered as major public square bets. Just plays that I feel confident at first glance, then check covers trends/previews/matchup notes as well as this forum..
2 for 15............ yea you read that right. I look at some of the good cappers on here and still can't win which I find kinda weird. NFL is the only thing keeping me afloat and thats with teaser parlays that I've been dominating all year. Is it maybe a better idea to look at a game and go the opposite way of what I feel confident in.. And I look at lines like Miami square and go opposite with Indy, but does this always work? It seems like the best plays every day are the +'s.. I've been looking and the most wins from a day come from just wagering the dogs.. Please, if you feel, give me insight or advice because at this point I am completely lost when trying to play these NBA lines or totals, even though I know the teams and their home/road situations.. Thanks in advance, (this is harder than NFL) |

GL on all your plays...
I've been getting beat this past week on NBA, but tonight's choices for me are: UTAH/ATL Under 192.5 Teaser : Hou +8.5, Den -5.5

I haven't been on here in awhile, but I enjoy the cappers who explain why they lean one way or another. Not one person is going to make you money all the time. It's up the individual, you, to first look at the games and decide what you like, then do a little research and talk to the community here on the board.
I can't stand when posts just pop up and it's posters just dropping their picks for the night with no communication on why they feel that way. The board is here for the reason to lay out as much positive evidence as possible.. You'll start seeing who is consistent with their plays in about a 2 week span if thats what youre looking for.. Good Luck to all

Agree on the Laker's line, but can't bet against a Thunder team that can light it up any given moment, so a no play from me.. but I am on that Under Utah/ATL game. The way the Hawks been playing is a shame so I'm hoping they don't turn it around just yet, since they screwed me earlier in the week. I didn't do a lot of research though on Utah's offense, but their road record is pretty sketch, so went off that.

I got beat up pretty bad by ATL earlier in the week thinking they're bound to turn it around. Ironically the lines looked exactly like they do tonight. No way I'm taking ATL, because if they fail to cover again, then I'm a complete idiot for picking them for the 3rd time in a week and not cover. I'm trying to win money with safer bets than this. No Play for me, but if I had to choose, possibly the Under pending ATL getting back to their defense (I'm assuming they worked on this majority of practice). They're offense is super sketchy with them shooting 3's and no play in the paint.

Anytime you see a line like this, shouldn't we take NO +3? I mean, that's the trend I've been seeing so far through the year.. Kinda like Indiana +2 last night.. |

Phi -1, Atl pk, La/Hou Under 221....... That was fun

Great read.. These were all considerations I was thinking too when I made my play earlier. Minny being completely depleted and as you said, Smith is the key factor. He has been in a slump, but can't go on forever. I put money on tonight's game to see Smith turn it around.

I also got burned on that Chicago Under last night.. I mean who would have thought they would have scored that many points, but to be honest I knew my play was bust by halftime. I am on a few of your picks as well tonight. ATL - pk : Not sure why they are dogs. Minny is depleted by injuries and I don't expect Hawks to continue their offensive troubles. Bound to turn around sometime. Philly -1 : This was a toss up, obv due to nasty record as of late, I just hope they aren't too run down from their road trip and give the home crowd a great show tonight. LA/HOU Under 221 : This might bite me later, but feel pretty confident that this is extremely high with Lakers trying to keep up. They might be more of a run and gun type team now with Dwight and Gasol out, but those guys do add rebounds and points and will be missed. (well as of lately Gasol, not so much).. BOL to us tonight. |

I agree with DeadPresidentz.. The line is baiting you to take Miami, but if the line is that fishy and you don't feel confident in the play, then lay off. Don't have to bet every game. Indy is very good at home as they play very well paced (no pun intended). The key to me is the rebounding, which the Heat are very bad at. They've been working on it in practice as you saw with the Wiz game the other night, and they know they're facing a tough rebounding team in Indiana. I expect the total to be right at or Under, depends if the Heat are hot from the arc. I don't expect Lebron to be charging down the lane as he is not 100%. Tonight is a no play for me on this one, just haven't been able to trust the Heat being consistent ATS. |
