NBA Basketball

[bulleenblues]

Alright Start of a new season today. Going to make a concerted effort to put my picks on here!! Just going to put my picks, no investment, and may just do a running tally. Good luck to all, its a long season!

Boston -6.5
Milwaukee +6.5

[Dutchy]

good luck BB, NBA is tough to win at...Ill start a seperate thread with my system.

will follow with interest

First punt on the NBA this season.

Dont usually like to multi my selections as there is always a surprise but with Melb Cup betting to do as well today its the chepest option.

Golden State -1.5 @ Memphis
Dallas -3.5 Vs Cleveland
Utah -6.5 @ LAC

$20 @ $6.16

Having another crack today.

With Denver trading AI for Billups they are clearly focusing more on defence this season. Cleveland always a tough team to score against as well. Both teams havent let over 100 points in each of their last 2 games and i think the line should probably be around the 194 mark

$30 on CLEVE / DENVER under 200.5 @ $1.77

(those with centrbet or sportsbet can get $1.85 i think)

[SCD]

I've had my 1st play of the year.

1 unit @ $1.91 - Denver/Cleveland under 199

[JK]

Not the best start lads, 119 at the half

[Swooper16]

Yeah can throw that one away. Didnt see a shootout happening in this game

[bulleenblues]

Righto, time for some money to be made. Horrible start (0-2), need to turn it around. Today's Picks:

Dallas -5.5 vs Charlotte
Atlanta win vs Indiana
Miami +2.5 vs Washington
Cleveland -5.5 vs New Jersey
Memphis vs Sacramento Over 196.5
LA Lakers vs Chicago Over 197.5

[Swooper16]

I really like the over 204.5 in the Indi / Atlanta game (altho only paying $1.70 on TAB). Just not sure if will get a chance to put it on.

5 out of 6. Good work. Just hope they were all separate bets and not in a multi.

Yeah all individuals. Multis are too tough! Record back in the positive (5-3).

[Dutchy]

good work BB....yeah dont play multis, easiest way to lose

[mighty_tiger_79]

if playing multis

id couple them up in doubles for a small amount

Ok then, no worries MT!!!

Can see value in 2 bets today.

Denver are paying $1.85 to win @ San Antonio. The undermanned Spurs have managed to get some close wins of late against pretty average basketball teams. Whilst there defence will keep them in this one Denver will have too many options and they look alot stronger now with Billups at the point.

Milwaukee / Utah over 189.5 paying $1.85 Thought the line for this one might be about 196. Utah consistently hit over 100 at home and shouldnt have any problems doing this again against a moderate Milwaukee defence. Hopefully the bucks can score about 90 points without 2 starters (they managed 97 against Boston and over 100 yesterday against the Nuggs)

Nice one bruvva!

I think the Utah Jazz paying $2.50 today at the spurs is some value. Both teams missing 2 guns each but i think the Jazz have a bit more depth then the spurs and altho they are on the road $2.50 is value in a 2 horse race. Also the line of 174 is very low. Spurs renown for their defence but Jazz wont change their uptempo style of basketball because of injuries - reckon this one could get to 180

[bulleenblues]

Ok, Record on the up (5-3) hopefully it stays that way. Todays Games:

Houston vs Orlando Under 184.5 pts
Atlanta +11.5 vs Cleveland
Miami vs Indiana Over 196.5 pts
New Jersey win vs LA Clippers
New Orleans vs Oklahoma City Under 191.5 pts
