I might have missed it, did he admit to posting the N-word posts?

remember when I faded Milwaukee with the Bulls on a Monday about a month ago -7.5 $1100/$1000

then faded Milwaukee three weeks ago to the day with Denver +6 at home $1100/$1000

and I said how bad that team was and how they overachieved and have no talent?  well I go and look and they have lost six in a row... should have just followed through on my theory

for some sick reason tho I think u might hit tonight..   i wish u luck scal


Heat have been money off a loss going 12-3-2 ats last 17.  Add to that an ice cold Bucks team and Heat are the play.

I don't disagree with betting ice on cold teams. I did for YEARS with the Knicks and stopped this year because they aren't even a team. But the Bucks aren't 'ice cold'. The past three games have been huge mountains to climb or unwinnable. 

Spurs - just lost to the knicks. Worst loss in pop/duncan era. Bucks can't win that game.

Nets - HUGE revenge spot against Kidd on the road for the Bucks and the Nets needed every single shot from here to timbucktoo to take that game in triple OT 

Cavs - who in the league is beating them right now? No one.

So the past three games haven't been winnable for the most part. Now they get the 32 win Heat.

You were betting against a 47 win Houston team who plays in the West, far and above teams in the East. 

Miami is nowhere near the Rockets right now and the rockets blew the doors off the Pacers right out of the gate. I do not expect that to happen, expect a close game and expect the Bucks to gut it out late to prove they have a shot at the playoffs.

tsw and goose- exactly the Commodoores of VANDERBILT

this team is playing great basketball winning 8 of 9 and we are getting +4 against a team who shoots it at only 43% from the floor.  Now if traveling across country to Cali is to much for them or not is my only concern...

And I'd much rather look at the NBA vs. The NIT if I were you.


Some of those teams in the NIT tourney are COMPLETE no shows because they simply don't care about the NIT. They care about the big dance which they didn't make.

CG if you're smart, from here on out you need to limit yourself to 1K plays MAX (even that is too much honestly)..the rest should be 550/500 or even 330/300

scal u bring up the huge revenge spot with the nets, but not a Miami team who u mentioned is 0-3 vs the bucks?

just play devils advocate here... bucks are ice cold also. 

that's why my pacers bet was so idiotic yesterday..   its like betting a cold team in baseball u lose 90% of time

Agree.  Last Weds they flew out to Cali and beat St Mary's, then came home and blew out SD State on Friday.  So traveling cross country twice may be a concern, but they did get knocked out first round of their conf tourney so should still have a lot in the tank.

scal even tho my nba pro record is good i am ice cold lately... hit my last 4 college bets, and Vandy is very motivated to make it to MSG and we are getting +4

just have to decide if i want to add Miami to my card as my "Fear the Deer Fade" is 3-0 in pro career (i am a moron for not continuing it against this pathetic team)

This will be a repeat of the Cleveland blowout of the Mavs a couple of weeks ago. Spurs win by at least 8.

If it's one thing covers has taught everyone, it's not to over think things.

Why oh why aren't you taking the Spurs??????? This game is so easy. Dallas is a team in huge turmoil. Please take this gift like I gave you yesterday with Houston. Don't be a damn moron

I kind of like the spurs but staying away for some reason

fading a team in Milwaukee who has lost 6 in a row is not a bad strategy imo... two best players on floor are on Miami in Dragic and Wade...

Commodores are red hot and +4

2-0 lets goo

Wow.  So nice to see everyone having a nice, intelligent discussion about sports.  Ahhh. This is how it should be.  
Maybe now we can win some money, instead of trying to make each other look stupid.  

Good luck everyone.  Like to see everyone acting like men.  Some good info in here today.  I bet Washington last night.  I'm cold too.  Could use some help.

Be careful with Vandy. The SEC is awful and Pac 10 is a much better hoops conference. Also Stanford is a pretty good team and could easily blow them out. I would stay asay

Also. Mil played CLe tough for three Qs before JR Smith turned into Korver and hit 4 threes in a matter of mins. Please oh please take the Spurs and thank me in the morning.

The Empire Consigliere suggests you consider AT LEAST $880/800 on each wager.  A solid effort to erase yesterday's debacle.

Look at the the teams Vandy had been playing lately.  And this game in a huge step down in class compared to who Standford played down the stretch in the pac. 12 conf.  I can promise you if Vandy played Arizona, Utah and Oregon they would get destroyed.  So you can say they are hot if you want but the teams they played are horrible and that is fact.
