    Default Basketball Parlay of the Day Contest - Wednesday, 11/12/08

    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.

    @raptors -5.5
    after that ugly loss against boston, i expect rested raptors to win this game in a decisive fashion against playing back to back 76ers. both teams acquired all-star caliber players namely elton brand and jermaine oneal so both teams are still finding ways to work out a winning system but it seems like raptors (4-3) is much more settled than the 76ers (2-5).

    magic -6.5
    also coming off a loss. i expect them to bounce back BIG against the durantulas. just too much firepower for the thunder to handle. first of a 3 game road trip for the magic. first time they were out (10/31) they lost to memphis. ouch! i doubt if they'll let that happen again tonight. schalacking comes to mind! :P

    Boston Celtics -9½:Home team is 7-0 ATS in the last 7 meetings.

    Tor-5.5 beat them on the road and will do the same at home line should be higher lakers+1.5 going with them till the line get crazy

    Sacramento Kings +7½ One game I think the kings can win out right! But same time they could get blown out but I'll take my chances!

    712 Milwaukee Bucks -3 Its gonna be hard for me to not bet against the spurs with the lineup they have right now. On the Road makes it even easier for me to bet!

  22. #22

    Default

    Indiana/NJ under 200 - played well below this last time out and still no Devin Harris, which means a completely different style for NJ and means this stays under the number

    SAS/Milwaukee under 182.5 - Both defensive minded teams, well at least that is their plan whether or not they execute that is another question, but I think with no Parker SAS will play extra conservatively and keep this under the number

    Again it's late so one line write-ups.

    NETS +1.5: Nets aren't much, but Pacers not good enough to be favoried on the road.

    SOUTHERN ILLINOIS -4: Sulukis may have the single strongest home court advantage in the entire country.

  24. #24

    Michigan -5½ --- northeastern has been playing well but against a big school I think Michigan will take care of business

    pacers/ nets under 200

    pacers/nets under 200 --- pacers have been scoring and giving up a lot lately but I'll take my chances that both team don't score around 100

    Rockets/Suns Over 195 - Rockets defense will continue to struggle against teams with good perimeter players. They shouldn't have problems scoring points on the Suns though.

    Kings +7.5 - Kings are quietly on something of a roll, 3 wins and a competitive loss to the Pistons in the last 4.
