2 games for NBA tonight - Best bet? Really hurting on $$ need a win in the worst way

[NYG4lifeNYK]

That being said I'd appreciate everyone's input on this.

Mj's pick is he under for the N.O./Mavs game.

Take the under as it is at 195.5 or buy a half or few pts.

or

5 pt teaser the under about 200.5 with N.O. -1?

or

Parlay both home teams tonight ML.

or

a single game bet?

Thanks everyone best of luck to all :toast:

As you know MJ has been money. With that being said, if you are going to play his plays, don't mess with them. Play it as he posts it. Don't start doing teasers and parlays. BOL!!

those -170 'buy 3 pts' spreads catching up to you?

Hope you rebound quickly starting tonight. Play it smart as tomorrow is always the best card of the week

Take denver and New Orleans...Straight bets only...Good luck

@) Not really don't make a habit of relying on that. Blazers screwed me last night had them at 4.5 in a teaser with boston... lost like $250 on that.. and I never tie all my bets into one team but I didn't realize I did that with portland last night :WTF:

gotta get off the parlay and teaser kick. they are the bread-winners of the sportsbook revenue stream

teasers in basketball are pretty much pissing $ away b/c you are only buying 2 baskets and with multiple teams tied together, if one is going to lose, it'll probably be more than the spread + 4

play single bets, sides and totals only, do NOT buy any pts more than 0.5 on occasional small sides such as 1.5

also, bet your own hunches early instead of relying on posters who make threads late in the day. by that time, the line has already moved in their favor and you'll be having to catch up with juice.

if they are against your hunch, then think about why that is, and if necessary, double over if betting small, but the value you can gain from being on the right side early is big

even playing really small, with the nba season winding down, can be profitable. $20 a day is still an extra $600 a month

That's good advice, thanks appreciate it :drink:

yeah, no problem. i'm not trying to bust your ball all the time, but I hate seeing $ being spent on that stuff.

 

[Lionman]

Loving the New Orleans under....... Let's get that bookie money $$$:howdy:

 

[smallunits]

moneyline parlay both the home teams!!!!!!!

 

[jdub6810]

my best advice would be to wait until you find the right play, don't force a pick tonight because the card is shitteous.

I'd take the homers straight bets only also, If you are hurting for money, gambling is not the way to go.

Research work for a better paying job, and only gamble for fun, in the end you not have any stress, you will get excited when you win, and when you lose, you will still feel good about life

Lol I didn't mean it that way. I meant I'm hurting for $$ betting wise not work wise where I'm banking on this to pay the bills(althought it doesn't hurt to win money) I'm not living and dying by this.
