Aren't you the Guy who tried to give me advice on Parlays the day after you had a 4 team parlays. Practice what you preach. Peace and GL.

Anyone tailing this play. Be wise.

I parlay once a week.  I also don't care, or need, anyone to tail me.  I put my money on this game.  I shared.  Either it wins, or loses.  Move along, nothing to see here.

No.  There is nothing unusual about an NBA line not moving in the middle of the day.

Harden is listed as a game-time decision, though it would seem to be a longshot for him to come back so quickly after limping out of Oracle Arena on Tuesday.

“I’m tough enough,” Harden said after the game. “My main focus is on tomorrow, getting the right treatment, icing as much as possible, try to get my ankle ready and my knee ready. My whole body hurts.”






Does this sound like a guy who's about to help his team, or drag them down?  As a potential Clippers backer tonight, I'm hoping Harden forces the issue and plays.  He will likely be awful, even worse than last night.

This is the kind of post that ABC and ESPN announcer Jeff Van Gundy would politely call "not smart."

Narco, you're not concerned that Harden sounds like he's in rough shape physically?

lol, I love the way Bator has kept a steady conversation on this thread, as a fellow Nevaduh'n I love to see his input.  He doesn't ridicule the bet, like others do, he disagrees, makes his case, and one of us wins at the end of the night.  That's how it should be.  No need to call each other names.

He won't play.  I capped it on the fact he won't.  If he does, great.  It doesn't matter.  THIS BET IS ON THE INTEREST AND EFFORT OF CLIPPERS.

It's based on pure motivation.  If Clipps come out with motivation, which I'm betting they won't, they win by 30.  If they don't, they struggle to a 7 point win, at most....

So ATS stats are worthless?  I'm not sure what you're saying here.  ATS records are enormously helpful to me.

I would make this bet, ten times out of ten, no matter what.  I have the money management to live another day if it loses, if it wins, great, either way, the sun still comes up tomorrow and we talk about the Laker game....

I don't even look at them.  I look at motivation, refs, and recent play....Love Rocket energy this road trip. I don't look at ATS.  Not one bit...Just how I do...

What good is 11.5 gonna do when the final is 115-90? 






I'll try to come up with a sharper prediction closer to gametime.

I don't have a bet on this game yet, and I can't say for certain that I will.  If I get involved in any way, though, I will post it.

Houston should be good at 10.5. Thats way too many points to give a decent team, especially for a team like the clips that struggle with their half court offense. Also if Hardens out anyone whos beeen gambling long enough knows that the first game a stars out bet on that team as everyone else plays out of their minds to make up for it and bet against them the next game.  Good call Narco, youve been on a good run, lets keep it up

I took the Clippers -6 -110 in the first half to win 2 units.  I took them -3 -110 in the first quarter to win 1 unit.  Also, I went under 53 -110 in the first quarter to win 1 unit.

You speak of the refs as if you personally known them for the past ten years. I'm not buying it. And while playing the team with the injury is a good strategy, this situation is very different considering the high spread and how it draws so much attention towards Houston.

@narco

If anything, shouldnt you be alarmed that the line isnt moving? Well in fact it moved from 10 to 10.5 with Public on the rockets.
