Why do I keep betting against the Spurs?

I just took the sorry Nets +8.5 -110 and ML +365.  For those of you who don't know, I frequently get roped into taking big numbers against the mighty Spurs and I never win.  No, seriously, never.  Check out San Antonio's last 10 games:

 

January 24th at Golden State - I unloaded on the Warriors +5.5 and ML +200.  The Spurs won by 11.

January 26th at Utah - I stupidly took the bitch Jazz +4.5 -108.  The Spurs won by 7.

January 29th at home ve. Houston - I unloaded on the Rockets +8.5 and +370.  The Spurs won by 13.

February 1st at Portland - I didn't bet anything on this day.  The Spurs lost by 13.

February 3rd at the Lakers - I was going to bet the Lakers -3, but didn't.  But then at halftime, with the game tied, I took the Lakers -2.  The Spurs won by 1.

February 4th at Sacramento - I placed a small bet on the Kings in the first half before realizing I was going to lose again, so I didn't take it any further.  The Spurs killed them.

February 8th at Detroit - I fell for the Pistons +7.5.  Close game for most of the way, but the Spurs outclassed them in the end by 11.

February 9th at Toronto - Even as I was placing my foolish bets on the Raptors +8 and +305, I knew I was going to lose.  And I did.  The Spurs entered the 4th quarter down by 3 and won by 11.

February 11th at Philadelphia - I liked the Sixers +3.5 in this game but I was at my threshold of pain when it came to the Spurs.  Even knowing the Sixers were a quality home dog, I nevertheless stayed away.  It felt weird, like deep down I just didn't want to win.  The Spurs lost by 6.

February 12th at Washington - Even I wasn't silly enough to take the Wizards in this matchup.  The Spurs won by a lot.

 

So why did I side tonight with another miserable team against the methodical, merciless Spurs?  I'm not sure, but maybe I'm trying to lose on purpose.  It's the only explanation that makes sense to me.  Bookmaker is doing me no favors either by inviting me to take super juicy moneyline prices against San Antonio.  All day long I was tempted into grabbing their +355 and then they got me when they upped the ante to +365 a few minutes before I started typing this.

My bets aren't small tonight, so if you're smart, you know what to do here!

Good Luck tonight sir.  Nets +8.5 is solid.

The nets have a chance of covering the number Bator, but I dont think they are winning the game that was kept me on betting them, tought you were going to bet like me the bobcats, o well good luck

Oddly enough, the Nets sort of jumped out at me as well.  I don't know if I'd be willing to risk money on the ML, but still...

Hmm!   You got me thinking now Mr.B!

Gud luck Bator, break the streak tonight!

I think this is a great position For the Net's to attempt to make a statment. Vs the road weary Spurs  I took the points and a very small play on the money line for fun.

 

Best of luck tonight 

Keep  You gotta get they ass one of these times!! And I think those soon to be Brooklyn boys hang in there! GL Bud! 

On it as well.

GL!

Why MrBator?!!!  Why would you do such a thing?!!!  I'm on other side of this one.  Good luck.

Good Luck today mr bator

What are your other picks so we can fade those too...?

Cats ML is the best ML wager tonight in the NBA.  KState ML is another strong bet.  When I saw the opening number I said the lines way to high but the more I thought about it the more it seemed like the Nets were the easy pick.  I think the Clips have a much stronger chance of covering and winning SU.  Cats and Clips ML for me.  Anyhow GL. 

your good, nets cover in my system....

Mr B.... Kinda sucks Matchbook is leaving us in the dust. I'm sure you are well aware of what is transpiring... Good Luck with your wagers this evening.

hmmm...i took the Nets even before looking this thread


And now my bet is fucked


Gotta call matchbook to just count it as a loss so i can move on

SPURS 1Q, 1H & GM .......SORRY!

Bator you seem stuborn w/your Spurs fade, what's the deal bro?

 

As Gordon Gieko would say..."Don't get emtional w/the stocks".

 

gl buddy

 

 

I have nothing else yet, but I'll post them in here if I bet anything else (provided I'm at home to do it).

 

 

But how about at +365?  Sure, it's not gonna win or anything, but what a number!

    Good Luck MB, hope you win!   Sammy  Sunshine.
