[Kori Ellis]

Place your bets.

[ducks]

I Bet It All

[ObiwanGinobili]

ooohhhh this is gonna be a good one :)
I'm struggling because i think they;ll win 63.. and it;s right on the cusp..... oh choices choices!

[Cant_Be_Faded]

ehhh this would take like more than half a year to pay off

it's a death trap

i'll bet like 5 bones

[Horry For 3!]

I'm going with 63 - 65.

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

bump, place your bets!

[Leetonidas]

All my $25 on 69 or more. :lol

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

Kori, the vBookie thingy here says the event will pay out after 10-31-2005 at 02:00 AM. Is this correct? Shouldn't it say some day in April 2006? Or it's just that that information displayed is wrong?

[milkyway21]

All my $25 on 69 or more. :lol:lol i hope you're right this time , TexasBalla bec I bet 69-73 Wins this yr which is practically my first bet(& you're actually ZERO?), on this forum.

to defend my choice,

Duncan missed so many games last yr but they almost made it to 60 W.

Duncan is healthy. Manu has rested.

Spurs re-loaded.

It means it will payout SOMETIME after that date. That's the last day that anyone can bet.

I got robbed in the last vBookie (along with a ton of people). I'd had more money but when game 7 came around I had like 16000 and instead of betting all of it, I bet 1600 (I forgot the other zero) and boy did I feel stupid.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

it's a death trap

this is the kind of vbookie that thispego bet on whilst losing his no. 1 ranking as the best vbookie of all spurstalk time

It's just a death trap for people who have $2115 vBookie dollars.

[Drachen]

what sucks is that I just bet it all, which means I will not be able to bet again until the season is over. - ha

Oh, I understand now, thanks for the explanation! :spin

bet


thats what im sayin
(no pun intended, but it is funny in edit)

[polandprzem]

Nothing to loose :)

sixty six baby!

Ps. DVD 2005 on my comp yeah!

[SpursFreak1320]

i bet it all too

[Vashner]

LOL why did ya'll put in all your money? hahaha

[1Parker1]

5K on 60-62 wins..........:)

[Sense]

63-65 cmon boys.

[RashoFan]

63-65 cmon boys.

Ditto that thought...

[zwbgr]

63-65

500x12=6000$

[Rummpd]

63-65 - 64 sounds about right.

[Shaolin-Style]

200 on 55!

[easjer]

I put it on 57-59. I know they can do that, even if they have a slow start or a bad stretch or injury, just with the depth they've got. Winning 60 + games is tough, even for dominant teams, so I can't put good vbookie $ on it.

However if they do it, then rock the casbah - it's a win-win situation for me, no?

[Mavs<Spurs]

I'm going with 63 - 65.

Hmm. That's what both my head and my heart tell me. However, I am afraid of jinxing the Spurs so I bet for less than that. I guess I am more superstitious than I previously realized because when I look at our team and our depth and our talent level, I think that we must win better than 60 games!

:fro

[smeagol]

Bump

Man people had little dough back then. Look at the skimpy bets!

Anyways, I'm glad to see I bet 63-65, I'm on track!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Bump

LOL I looked at these bets earlier today, and had the exact same thought!

[ALVAREZ6]

successful season.

[spurschick]

Wow... I just looked back through my old vbookies and saw all of the bets from the finals last year. Got me a little choked up.

[polandprzem]

1100 on a 66 wins

That was a high bet

[Dre_7]

63-65 baby!! Gotta get that vcheese!!!

[14dave]

66-68

[Jimcs50]

How come I did not get in this bet??? I must have been out of town that day.

Month by month schedule breakdown

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon 21 at Sacramento 10:00 PM
Wed 23 at Golden State 10:30 PM
Fri 25 Chicago 8:30 PM
Tue 29 LA Lakers 8:30 PM

14 games (7 home 7 away)

Rough start with long roadie. Key games against Western contender Denver, at new and improved defensive minded Dallas, Houston and at Sacto who I think has a shot to win the Pacific, because of Phoenix' injuries.

Prediction: 11-3

Thu 1 at Dallas 8:00 PM
Sat 3 Philadelphia 8:30 PM
Mon 5 at Orlando 7:00 PM
Wed 7 Miami 9:00 PM ESPN

Tue 27 Indiana 8:30 PM
Thu 29 New Orleans 8:30 PM
Sat 31 at Denver 9:00 PM

17 games ( 8 home 9 away)

Key games: Tough month with some tough road games at Milwaukee, Detroit Denver and a NY team that always seems to beat SA at home. First matchup with Miami and Detroit, two teams that are contending for the championshiip.

Prediction: 13-4


JANUARY

Wed 4 Portland 8:30 PM
Fri 6 Minnesota 8:00 PM ESPN2
Sat 7 at Phoenix 9:00 PM
Tue 10 New Jersey 8:30 PM

Sat 28 Minnesota 8:30 PM
Mon 30 at Utah 9:00 PM

14 games (9 home 5 away)

Easiest month thus far with only real tests against Denver, Detroit and Miami. Spurs start rodeo trip, an 8 game trip in Utah. This month should be their best month and they should start to separate themselves from the Western pack by months end.

Prediction: 12-2

FEBRUARY

Thu 2 at Golden State 10:30 PM TNT
Wed 8 at Toronto 7:00 PM

Sun 26 at Seattle 7:30 PM ESPN
Tue 28 at LA Clippers 10:30 PM

16 games (7 home 9 away)

Toughest month to date. Key games Dallas, at LAL twice, at Phoenix with Stoudemire back on the team, at Houston, at Denver, at Seattle, and home against Houston. Spurs will have to play their best to be 500 team this month.

Prediction: 11-5

APRIL

Sat 1 Washington 8:30 PM
Tue 4 at Utah 9:00 PM
Wed 5 Sacramento 9:30 PM ESPN
Fri 7 Dallas 8:30 PM
Sun 9 Memphis 7:00 PM

Sun 16 at Minnesota 1:00 PM ABC
Mon 17 Utah 8:30 PM
Wed 19 at Houston 8:00 PM ESPN

10 games(7 home 3 away)

Easiest month, but Pop might be resting starters in last week in preparation of playoffs, so record might falter.

Key games: Sacto, Dallas, Seattle and at Houston, who themselves will have a rough month with more road games and will be trying to lock down HCA in first round, so they will be really wanting to win this game.

Prediction: 8-2


Overall:

63-19
Spurs record for wins in a season.

Here was my preseason prediction.

Kori, can I get something if I was right? :spin

[Rummpd]

Nailed it again!

See post 24.

[smdanss]

64

[smeagol]

Nailed it again!

See post 24.
We got another Jim in the house.

[RashoFan]

Bump...
Three games to go....come on Spurs, I want to win at least 1 vbookie this year!!!!!!
63-65 wins
:lol

[polandprzem]

I think Manumania put most of his money on that bet, and he will get it.

[Horry For 3!]

63 :smokin Too bad I didn't have much money back then when I made this bet

[SuperManu!!!]

Yay!!! I finally getting grabbed a high vbookie bet

[ObiwanGinobili]

:lmao I'm only going to get 18000 plus my orig 1500 off of this fantastic vBookie win!! :bang

oh well... 1500 was all I had to spare at the begining of the season.... :spin

[Dre_7]

Chea! If only I had more vdollars at the begining of the season.

[DieMrBond]

*gasp* i won a vbookie!

[1Parker1]

Damn. :(

[ObiwanGinobili]

maybe the winners could get a spur??? :angel

[polandprzem]

Cuoldn't they win 3 more games?

They could but Manu was not a Manu and Tim had the foot.

Come on 3 wins

[RashoFan]

I won a VBookie :cheer

[Rummpd]

Congrats to all (like me) who picked 63 +/- 1 and shame on the non-believers in this squad!

[Chris]

wow Jim that's pretty amazing

[coopdogg3]

Hard to believe that the play-offs are finally here. Seemed like forever ago when we were doing this vBookie.

[orhe]

tsk wtf i didn't win i swear i gambled on 63-65

[greywheel]

Click on the "vbookie" link on the black bar above and then the "your bets" link below that on the next page and you can review what you bet.

[smdanss]

64
I was right. :elephant

[Vashner]

maybe the winners could get a spur??? :angel

Yea good idea. Everyone was on the 70 win bandwagon. Where more experianced fans know it's tradition to choke a few games :)

[Rummpd]

Three years in row I have nailed the Spurs win total within one friggin game - give me that darn Spur!
