    Default Basketball Parlay of the Day Contest - Tuesday, 11/11/08

    Starting Saturday (November 1), we will start a November Hoops Parlay Contest with a grand prize of a $200 cash account at BetPhoenix, 3 time roll-over. Second Place will be a $50 account and last place will receive a $25 BetPhoenix account with a 3 time roll over. If there is a tie for last place in both units and game-by-game record (15 parlay minimum), the last place prize will be divided equaly.

    *IMPORTANT*
    All players must have an account at BetPhoenix to be prize eligible Sign up here

    To be eligible to win prizes, all players must PM their BetPhoenix account ID to SBRforum Staff NO LATER than 6:00pm ET on Wednesday, November 5!


    1. Check in the NBA BASKETBALL HANDICAPPING FORUM each day for the daily thread to be posted by LT Profits. Lines will be posted by 1:00 p.m. (ET) each day. Plays may be posted before that, but the official posted lines will be used for grading.

    2. Posted spreads and totals are the only eligible plays for grading, no Money Lines or Halves allowed. NBA and NCAA Men's Colege Basketball will be included.

    3. Two-game parlay picks, laying 10 to win 26. Post entire parlay at same time, no open parlays.

    4. Here’s the catch: Your play must include a write-up! The write-up does not have to be long, just a sentence or two about why you are making your play. If need be, please refer to prior month's contests for examples.

    5. Entries that are past-post or do not have analysis for both games will be NO ACTION. Once your two-team parlay has been posted, you CANNOT change either play. Any edited post will count as a *-LOSS! If you make a mistake (such as leaving out "Over" or "Under" or not clearly stating your selection), need to add analysis or wish to enter corrected lines, do so in a separate post. This holds true even if the first game on the schedule did not tip off yet. It also holds true for past-posts and entries with no analysis. It does NOT hold true for posts that are not parlay selections, i.e. standings, commentary posts or congratulatory posts. Any player with two edit violations during the course of the contest shall be ELIMINATED FROM PRIZE ELIGIBILITY.

    *-EXCEPTION: If someone edits a post on the last day of the competition in an attempt to get an automatic loss in order to win the Last Place prize, then the player will be credited with a WIN.

    6. And here’s the fine print:

    • Must be 18 years of age or older to participate.
    • One entry per household and IP address.
    • Must use lines posted in daily thread by LT Profits
    • Maximum one parlay pick per day, minimum 15 parlay plays required to be eligible for monthly prize.
    • Tiebreaker for prizes - Win % of individual parlay legs. If still tied, combatants will carry on a head-to-head parlay match until winner determined.
    • All decisions made by SBR with regards to this contest are final.
    • SBR employees eligible to participate but are not eligible to win the monthly prize.

    NYK. Even though its on the road, banged up spurs team, run gun NTK keep it close!

    Hawks. Even though on the road, should keep it close and I will ride them at this price!

    Philly (Phillys two best games have come at home. My power ratings have Utah going down just a hair even though they are 5-1. Philly gets another double digit win at home)

    NY Knicks (SanAntonio is finished. They are toast. I am so sick of seeing them in the playoffs I could puke. Duncan basketball has been boring for years. Its over. Knicks get the road win here.)

    lakers are just steamrolling whoever's in their way.

    Denver Nuggets -3
    nuggets vs bobcats - 1st of the 3 game road trip. next two are cavs and celts. i'd assume they would wanna win this one convincingly. -3 shld be an easy cover.

    San Antonio Spurs Under 195 : spurs are getting too old to run and gun. going under

    Northeastern -7: returns all 5 starters and should be improved with experience

    Philly -4 The Jazz are down 3 important players and Philly has been good at home with the exception of the loss to Toronto.

    Lakers -6.5 I have the Lakers by 35, but maybe Dallas shows some pride and keeps it to 12.

  14. #14

    Default

    Philly -4: Jazz missing players and the 76ers will show up this game and play well at home.

    Bulls -3.5: The Hawks ride is over tonite as the Bulls take the home win.

    Alright, I will give my take on a parlay for today. I already have write-ups on my thread for the day.

    San Antonio-3.5 or 4 depending on the book
    Utah+4.5

  16. #16

    Default

    Knicks +3: Spurs have problems, no Parker or Manu.

    Lakers/Mavs Over 196: Both teams reach double digits in a close one tonight.

  17. #17

    Default

    HAWKS/BULLS UNDER 188: One reason for the Hawks 5-0 start is that their defense is allowing just 85.8 points per game, with the Under going 4-1. The Bulls are shooting just 42 percent from the field for the year, and they do play decent defense at home where they allow 92.5 PPG.

    KNICKS +3: I felt that the Spurs were old and overrated to begin with this season, and with Tony Parker now joining Manu Ginobili on the injured list, the team is comprised of Tim Duncan and a bunch of role players. The Knicks have won three straight and their hot offense should take advantage of a declining Spurs defense.

  18. #18

    Default

    Knicks +3 // Spurs are banged up! Fading them here. Betting againstthem elsewhere.
    Golden State -6 // I have trouble finding the second game for the parlay. No reason other than the warriors can score in a hurry and are home.

    Bucks/Cavs Under 193 - Skiles is very unhappy with Milwaukee's defensive effort last game, it will be a focal point tonight.

    Jazz/Sixers Under 191 - Okur is out. Utah can compensate for his defense but not his offense.

    Detroit Pistons -7 : Detroit is alot better than the kings, and favorite is 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings.

    Dallas Mavericks +6½: Dallas always plays the lakers tough, and underdog is 10-3-1 ATS in the last 14 meetings.
