Surprised how Vegas is buying into the Dubs hype. They really think Kerr's going to be the first rookie coach since Riles to ring? Sucker bet. They've got the same chance as the Hawks at 12-1
Bet on the money lines. I don't want to bet on over/under lines too much either, too volatile.
I think I'm gonna stay away from handicaps as well until I've gotten back a grip of things; the Lakers just cost me $2k when I bet Warriors -20.5 a month ago.
You're not gonna lose this time, tbh... Cleveland is gonna kill Boston. Bron gon get some little revenge for 2010.

I don't bet on totals regardless, tbh, I'm not a profitable totals bettor..
March/April was by far the most lucrative betting of the year for me, as I said earlier..only tough loss I had all month was the Nets getting blown out by the Bulls, didn't expect that, at all..
I understand why people prefer the playoffs, but I find it much easier during the regular season to bet on/against teams in spots, a lot of teams predictably coast and quit..
I agree about the Cavs, they should destroy a Boston team that will probably be content to just make the playoffs, I'm just saying, I have a rule where I don't bet against Boston..I'm still going to take Cleveland, but I'll either tease it, or I'll keep the units low..
Vegas's lines are a combination of the team itself + the perception of the gambling public/sharps..the Warriors had a historic season, but they're also a popular team and a public darling, which is why their odds were going to be inflated, regardless..
The Warriors are actually a rare example of both the public and the sharps riding them..very rare, probably the first team to fit this mold since the 2008 Celtics..
Stay away from Golden State -11.5. There's something about top seeds and game 1. NO might want to prove something even though they're going to lose eventually.
Milwaukee is gonna get blown out. Take the minus.
Take the plus on the Wiz. Raps win with a lesser margin or completely lose Game 1.
Rockets will cover but don't bet a huge amount if you don't want to have a heart attack. Just gonna be crazy series overall
Easy money
Easy money
Take Memphis. Memphis is gonna wear down LMA and ROLO. However, same with Dallas v Houston, don't bet an obscene amount of money.
Take the Spurs. I think they'll win Game 1 by 6-8 points.
I can't see how you guys can stand doing NBA with all the catchup foul shooting and "no foul matador D" at the end of games.
Interesting stuff though.
Both #1 seeds last year didn't cover Game 1. Top 3 teams last year in the East didn't cover Game 1. Fading the public on the top teams in Game 1 is profitable.
Brooklyn is horrible and they didn't want to be in the Playoffs until the last minute when they realized that Indy had no chance against Memphis.
Milwaukee is considerably better but the Bulls are gonna cuck them in Game 1, straight up.
Lastly, Celtics
This holds more weight in the West where it is a jungle, as always, every year. I'd completely stay away from GSW's handicaps at -12 and -11.5 and bet on NOP making the plus.
Taking:
- Cavs/Hawks 4.5 point teaser for 5 units
- Cavs/Hawks/Warriors 8-point teaser for 2 units
- Warriors 5 units to win NBA le at 11/5
- Hawks 2 units to win the East at 13/4
- Warriors/Pelicans 5 units UNDER 5.5 games in the series at -210
- Cavs/Celtics 2 units UNDER 4.5 games in the series at +190
- Hawks/Nets 1 unit UNDER 4.5 games in the series at +250
- Number of 5-8 seeds that advance to round 2; 4 units UNDER 2.5 at -250

Atlanta to make the NBA Finals at 4.25?
More like 20.00 min imo. There is no way in that Atlanta make the NBA Finals.
Best value I can remember for a team with the best record in their conference, tbh..I couldn't resist, value is unbelievable and Cavs have a ton of flaws..
I put $50 on clippers at 16 to 1 to win championship
I put $50 on Grizzlies 28 to 1 to win championship
Probably won't happen, but that is incredible value. Plus, gives you options to hedge for guaranteed profit if they get far.
Pelicans baby. Easy W.
Told you. Also got Chicago and Toronto right.
ImDaNuts did you bet on these predictions?
I was too pussy to parlay but I put on a decent amount of money on each of these predictions. Well guess what...
Went 3-1. Lost the MIL bet. +$3k for the day. I do not play parlays but sometimes I try the O/U. I am not good on predicting the final totals but not bad (on good days) at betting the lines.
BOS+11.5
ATL-10
MEM-5.5
LAC-1
This man knows his . If you have a similiar second day, I'm following you through June
I got Cleveland and Chicago sweeping their series. Combined, I get 32/1 my money. And another one, Grizzlies to win 4-2 plus 4-1 Spurs. Same odds.
Milwaukee will win one game and Clippers will win at least two. Have your bet cancelled if you still have some time. Well if you bet like a small amount then nothing to lose, right?
I'm betting smaller on these four games, no parlays. Probably $500 on Cleveland and Atlanta to cover (or $1000, because I'm really confident that they're easy money) and a pussy $50 on Memphis and San Antonio to cover.
I predicted each of yesterday's spreads and made a killing but I'm not pushing my luck.
Can't cancel the bets, but it's ok. I'll stand by my teams. Also bet on Dallas winning in 6 and actually liked what I saw yesterday.
Whew. Cleveland made me bricks and sweat profusely but they covered the spread anyway. ALLinCLE.
The Clippers are going to win by half a point?
Betting on tonight's clipper game is a roullete spin.... No idea what happens
Staying away from the West playoffs. Lol jk I put $100 (pussy bet) each on Memphis and San Antonio to cover.
