    Default Basketball Parlay of the Day Contest - Friday, 11/14/08

    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, Durant should play but sounds like he is Not even close to 100% and this team is just to young and it shows if you have watch them play before. The NYK seem like the type of team that is still learning Mike D'Antoni offense. Little fact in this early season so far Knicks 5-3, in all their wins have scored 100+, and in all their loses have scored below the century mark! Key to the victory and cover in my mind! 100!

    Houston, I said when they played Mil in when they played last, with this lineup its gonna be hard for me to not bet against The Spurs right now. This number is perfect in my mind with the way Houston is playing and for how down the Spurs team is. I see this one being close but in the end the BIG 3 will be to much for poor old Duncan to stop. Little fact for this game, In the 3 Loses for Houston this year Yao Ming Is Avg 11pt 7rb per game. In the 5 wins Yao Ming Avg 20pt 11.6rb per game. Key for a win and cover Yao Ming to have a great game!

    Atlanta Hawks

    Hawks are the best team in the East right now. Nets are the worst. Hawks are 7-0 ATS this year.

    Indiana Pacers

    Pacers are 3-0 against Sixers beating them by an avg of 11 points. Why are they only favored by 1 pt tonight?

    Not part of the contest. Just posting.

    Pistons/Lakers OVER 195
    This total looks somewhat low for this game at this time of the season.

    Wizards/Heat Over 197.5
    This game looks poised to soar over the total easily. The 1H should go over 100 and once that happens, we'll be fine in the end.

    Pacers -1 Sixers are missing something and I dont think its just chemistry, they lose games they shouldnt.

    Suns over 209.5 Both teams like to score, even if Kevin Martin sits out the Kings reach 100 and I feel like the Suns will play with passion tonite and win by 10 or more.

    Rockets over 172.5- Rockets have enough offense to push this over. 100-88

    Pistons+9.5- I think they are going to battle with the Lakers and pin em their first loss.

    Boston Celtics -10 : Home team is 7-0 ATS in the last 7 meetings.Nuggets are 1-6 ATS in the last 7 meetings in Boston.

    Detroit Pistons +9½:9.5 is way to many points for the pistons to be getting.Pistons are 11-4-1 ATS in the last 16 meetings.

    COLUMBIA +10: This is too many points for this New York City rivalry, especially when you consider that Fordham lost their two leading scorers from a year ago, and that those two losses incredibly accounted for more than half of the Rams’ points last season.

    CAL POLY SLO +3.5: I know that Arkansas-Little Rock won 20 games last season, but laying points on the road with a Sun Belt team out of conference seems like a scary proposition to me. Besides, Cal Poly is an experienced team that figured to improve on their 12-18 mark from last year.

    Hofstra/Clemson Over 142 - Even though it cost him last year in the NCAA tournament, Oliver Purnell is not going to stop pressing. They will easily dictate the tempo against Hofstra, that tempo will be fast.

    Suns/Kings Under 209.5 - Up-tempo PG Nash and super fast Barbosa are out.
