Last night's bet:
| Event 1: | Brooklyn at Indiana Pacers |
|---|---|
| Play Time: | 2013-02-11 19:05 |
| Selection: | Brooklyn to win |
| Odds: | Point Spread (+8.5) -110 |
| Final Score: | Indiana 84 Brooklyn 89 |
4-0, dogs. Brooklyn had a rough second quarter but outside of that, they pretty much owned this game. Getting 8.5 points to do it? That was an easy bet. Didn't like this game enough to take it on the moneyline...would have been nice, but - you do lose a lot of games betting that way. That's why I only like to take NBA and NFL moneylines in extreme cases these days.
Let's keep it rolling.
BET 1: Phoenix @ LA Lakers, Phoenix +9
Love big spreads, hate the Lakers, so this was a pretty easy bet according to my parameters. I really couldn't decide if I wanted Portland +11.5 @ Miami, but thankfully this bet stepped up and allowed me to bet against the LA Trainwrecks. Phoenix sucks, but so does LA. Their offense is a joke, if you even want to call it an offense. Watch this team play against Oklahoma City. Watch them play against Miami. It's like LA is playing a different sport. A different, much more boring and simple and inefficient sport where 34-year old Kobe Bryant, he of like 830,483 NBA basketball games, pretends that he's 25 still and runs 89% of the offense through himself. Dwight Howard and his compression sleeves is allowed to touch the ball when he rebounds it. Pau Gasol occasionally shows up when he isn't hurt (he's hurt now). This team sucks and yet they still get big spreads because they are LA. I'm happy to take them. So let's hope they don't let me down.
I know nothing much about Phoenix other than they suck. This bet is all about LAL.
Andddd the only other bet I'm considering is Houston +4.5 @ Golden State, but...I just have a bad feeling about it. I love Houston - they are like the opposite of the Lakeshow - and they've been rolling, while Golden State has faltered...but, the Warriors were struggling there on the road, they are back at home, they've had three days off, they have new jerseys with motherfucking sleeves...and I just can't pull the trigger.
All NHL bets suck tonight, so I'm going to go with another single-bet night. I miss you, NFL.
