Funk's NBA bets - 2013/2014

line on blazers is all the way up to 199.5. i might pull the trigger on it a little later. These are some poor defenses playing tonight

Thanks for the picks Funk !

Damn i am scared too about that atl/cats game...could it be that the return of the coach will boast their morale and lead them to victory?

Wooh nice atl and the over man didnt expect to still hit it wit just few min left 

I think the RLM in the ATL game was due to the playing of al Jefferson. Nonetheless good pick with ATL. 

i don't think utah is ever winning a game without a true pg running the offense. utah isn't deep enough in the guard department already, and it's evident hayward can't carry the load. 

Why did we bet on a team that's 0-7 and against a team tha'ts 7-0 again?

Hawks - 2.5
5.5 units (to win 5)
----------------------------------------------------------
Grizzlies/Pacers - Under 183.5
5 units (to win 4.55)
----------------------------------------------------------
Wolves/Clippers - Under 210.5
5.5 units (to win 5)
----------------------------------------------------------
Grizzlies + 6.5
5 units (to win 4.55)
----------------------------------------------------------
Jazz + 2.5
5 units (to win 4.55)

ATS: 13 - 11 = 54.2 %
O/U: 14 - 11 = 56.0 %
Overall: 27 - 22 = 55.1 %

Units: + 10.35

I maybe stay away from tonight games. Just will wait until Bucks/Heat line opens to see if there is some value on that game.. if i noticed that the totals line is set too high... i'll try the under... i really don't think that Mil has any chance for good scoring night against mobilized Heat which are just 4-3 SU from start of the season.... Maybe i'll take Warriors SU and Mavs SU on some parlay with little cash but nothing special as a play. BOL with tonight games fellas.

Tuesday final:

Bucks/Heat - Under 196.5
5 units (to win 4.55)

Too many injuries will stop MIL to put something in this game. Can't see how they could score more than 85 at road against Heat which are obliged to win this game after lost to Celtics on saturday... It's time for Miami to wakeup because Indy will take command of the conference (they already did it) and we all now (look last year playoffs) what home advantage means for Miami in 7 games series... Hope Miami won't score more than 110...

Thanks funk let's make some $$

thanks funk

Poor schedule tonight is perfect for strange experimental bets. I will try a almost double up (-120) parlay that really think has a shot. Never played this kind of bet before but make some research for it:

Team with highest scoring quarter:
Warriors + Heat (parlay)

Warriors game:

1) I'll go with the team with better offense, faster pace and amazing three point shooter specialists. GSW are good in blowing out opponents in just one quarter
2) I'll go with the home team which is 13-2 SU against b2b visitors last season. 10-4-1 (W-L-D) in these games GSW has higher scoring quarter. 2-0-0 already this season. Pistons are 4-9-0 last season in higher scoring quarter when they are b2b at road.
3) I'll go against away team which is 0-13 SU at road when the line was set at - 9 or higher. They are 3-9-1 in higher scoring quarter in these games.

Heat game:

1) Last year both teams met at Miami 4 times (2 regular 2 playoff games) and 3 out of 4 Heat has the most scoring quarter.
2) Simply go with obviously better home team which could blowout short listed from injuries Bucks team
3) Miami are 23-0 SU last three seasons (big three era) at home when the line was set at - 13.5 or higher. They are 20-3-0 in higher scoring quarter in these games.

I like the numbers here and i'll pull the trigger. If i hit here maybe i'll try this kind of bet again  when the schedule is poor and there is almost nothing to play (ATS and Totals).

Player Prop: Brad Beal over 20.5

Never bet on Player props but for tonight i like:

David Lee (GSW) over 17.5 pts
David Lee (GSW) over 9.5 reb

GL with Beal prop

Not normally a prop better either but I like wade over 20.5.  Lebron has a bad back and may rest which should create more opportunity and responsibility for wade 

Had a shot until both teams decided to completely quit playing defense in the 4th quarter 

It's about time to fade you FunkFreaker, last year you did very good because put all your time to concentrate to the game and spreads, this year you try to head to other way like Over/Under and now you try play on players props., Also you try to play parlay to win more. This is what it call you are heading to wrong way on betting sports, try do to too much. and look at the record, you're just barely over .500

If you just play like last year, concentrate to the game and if there no good game just stay out wait for tomorrow or until you see a good game. That's a good way and discipline to control the bank roll.

Good Luck Funk,

You try to do too much

No one is forcing you to follow this thread.........thanks for the picks regardless.  You have been playing well besides the last few days!

Funky! You're on a real piss poor luck streak.

Fellas calm down. As i said I NEVER bet money on player probs. I just write what i LIKE for playing not what i will PLAY. Like couple of nights ago when i suggest Tigers to pull the trigger on Aldridge prob because i LIKE it.

MACKY i bet this parlay with pocket cash of 1.5 unit (my standard is 5-5.5) so this is just result of 1 hour researching and really liking the bet. I just had to bet some money for the time i spent... and the important thing is that the parlay hits. So there is something value there. It's normal losing streak (2-6 last three days which is not so bad...)... it's just start of the season. Most of the teams are not in best shape yet and etc... The real game and numbers for betting start at the middle of december...

AceRothstein27 maybe and this season i will stick to my rule... bet Miami only at road and only against to

0-1 last night. I will write my update tomorrow.

Early leaning:

Raptors/Grizzlies - Under 186.5

Add one more:

Wizards/Spurs - Under 197.5

Last season Wizards are 1-11 O/U when they are b2b at road. One of this games was against Spurs (L 86-96) Now they even play 3 game in 4 nights so i think they will be pretty tired... They reach 90s only 4 times in these 12 games and the opponents were teams like Rockets, Warriors, Mavericks and Celtics which are not best known as a good defense teams... I know that this season Wizards improve much their game but they met best team in the west Spurs (my opinion) and i don't think they have a chance for high scoring game against Pop's boys. My only worries are about probable blowout in first 3 quarters which will increase the pace in the game like last night game in Miami. Hope Wizards have powers to hold this game in 5-10 points spread until fourth... We have early RLM here so maybe this under is gonna be my future play ...

Have a look at the Portland game, majority on the over, yet the total moved from 202 to 201.

Not so sure about this game bro. Suns are still mystery for me this season... really don't expected so many wins from them in first games...

For tonight i still like my two unders... Spurs and Wolves are the two teams that i have no doubts they will win tonight but the spreads are to heavy... - 10 and - 8...

I see lots of money goes to Lakers which is not good... i remember one rule from last year... when tones of money goes to Lakers they didn't cover the spread almost all the time. Nuggets are not the same team as last year (removing Igoudala and firing coach of the year was maybe the stupidest moves in all league this summer) but my suggestion is to be careful if you put money on coin flip team like LAL....

I'm watching carefully lines on Hawks and Clippers games now. Again interesting RLM at Jazz game but i can't pull the trigger again on this team until i see any good effort from them.
