Please, please, please never buy points on a parlay.
Please, please, please never bet against OKC when they're super hot.
Oh, wait
Washington +4.5 -115 (Bovada) -- 3.5 -110 or 4 ok
This is one of those lines which "pops" at the last minute in order to bring disproportionate action back the other way. It was +3 just a short time ago.
Starts in 15-20 min
John Wall is out.
Brooklyn +5.5 (might want to put some on moneyline +200)
Anyway, as you guys see, I'm fading Jewlips on his OKC pick.
I'm kinda with him on the Jazz now. Still thinking about that one. If I do it, I'm not buying any points though. LOL
Rolling with Team Minty on the Utah play tonight. Utah +7.5
Golden St is 21-27-2 ATS, 12-13 as Road Fave. Utah is 25-24 ATS, 6-2 as home dog, 14-9 ATS at home. via scoresandodds
Still no Rodney Hood, but I think I'm gonna do this Utah pick, as well.
Utah +8 on Bovada
CLIPPERS ML
FADE ME BITCH
:lol4
Brooklyn was a disaster.
Wash won and Utah looking good.
Mint, please promise us that you won't buy points on a parlay again.

I TOOK THE POINTS
Ever tried this? You put a frog in a pot & it will freak out on you. He will jump, shit, piss, do it all. Frogs are not calm & reasonable animals. Get a big pot & a lid is your only hope.Quote:

Should have jumped on the Washington game tonight. Didn't have the balls.

Second, he's buying these points in NBA, not NFL. Buying football points can be smart at times. In basketball, that's not the case.
He took his parlay payout from 6-to-1 to 3.63-to-1, which is awful.
If you're going to bet parlays in the NBA, you need to grow some balls and just do them as-is. Otherwise you're hurting your payout too much to where you'll never beat them, even if you get lucky.
His parlay with Hawks/Pacers tomorrow is much better, as it is paying true odds (3.2-to-1).
FADE ME BITCH

Obviously I'm not good with money

2-1 day yesterday.
All 3 picks were posted at kind of the last minute.
I was unsure about the Utah pick, but that was a blowout winner outright the entire way. Thanks to those of you who bet it before I posted it, which pushed me over the top to make it.
Now I'm 139-104-3.
I am skeptical of this. The books know when buying half a point matters and increase the price accordingly. For example, if you want to go from -2.5 to -3 you pay -120 instead of -105.Quote:

Sports betting isn't beatable. You can't solve it. Why you guys keep bantering about +ev spots is frankly hilarious and absurd. Books don't sell EVQuote:

I'm not an NFL parlay bettor so you may be correct.Quote:

I was mainly stating that buying points on NBA parlays is a
:baddecision
I don't talk about +EV spots, I talk about recognizing less -EV spots. I think for many of us the point is to get our rush gambling giving up as little EV as possible. That is probably why most blackjack players would suggest sticking to basic strategy, and most crap players would suggest just doing line bets (I think, I admit I don't know a lot about craps) even though even following these strategies you will still ultimately lose in the long run.Quote:

Late entry, GL ME
The Grizzlies literally have 8 players questionable. The fact a line has been out all day with all this info up in the air shows the books don't have a high opinion of the roster. The books are basically saying they suck equally regardless of who is playing and isn't.Quote:

Somehow the Grizzlies have actually been doing BETTER despite the absence of guys like Conley, Green, and Parsons. They're about a .500 team since December!
Tyreke Evans might be the question mark, as he was just sick on Monday, and he also hurt his arm when playing in that day's game. He's probably playing, but may not be 100%.
I'm staying away from this one.
Lakers -3
Miami +2.5 (or moneyline of +125 or better)
Lakers tend to lose when they are road favorites. I don't think they can handle the pressure when they are expected to be the better team.Quote:
