    Default Basketball Parlay of the Day Contest - Tuesday, 2/24/09

    Starting Monday (February 2), we will start a February Hoops Parlay Contest with a grand prize of a $125 cash account at Legendz, 2 time roll-over. Last place will receive a $25 Legendz account with a 2 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 Legendz to be prize eligible Sign up here

    To be eligible to win prizes, all players must PM their Legendz account ID to SBRforum Staff NO LATER than 6:00pm ET on Monday, February 2!


    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 2:00 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.

    HEAT -4.5: This is a great revenge spot for a Miami team that has lost the last six meetings vs. Detroit incliding a narrow three-point loss at Auburn Hills this year, as they are catching a reeling Pistons team that has lost six games in a row straight up and is 1-9 ATS the last 10 games with the cover beoritesing a lucky one in overtime as 4.5-point favorites.

    WICHITA STATE -8.5: Wichita State is 12-3 at home including 6-1 inside the MVC, and they are allowing a minicsule 57.9 points per game in this building. That makes for a tough matchup for an Indiana State team that is shooting just 40.5 percent overall and a disgusting 44.1 percent on two-point attempts (293rd in the country).

    Pittsburgh -8½, Providence gives up way too many points to keep a good offensive Pitts team from blowing them out

    Phoenix Suns -7, Suns old offense seems to steamroll bad teams, and shrinks versus good teams.

    Both games should be blow outs. Two explosive offenses against two inconsistent offenses.

    Tulane/Southern Miss Over 128.5 - The last meeting went under mainly because Tulane had an awful shooting day. A more average night, and this game is both closer and higher-scoring.

    Indiana St./Wichita St. Over 123.5 - Both have been solid "over" teams in the MVC.

    lsu -3.5....................lsu a great home team. florida very beatable on the road this year. huge home court edge for the tigers and i can see them winning by double digits.

    boston college -2.5................florida state has beaten some pretty good teams this year. taking them and the points looks to easy to me, so i am fading them. this one scares me to death, so it will probably be a winner.

    Monday plays

    Pittsburgh at Providence 158 over
    This game in my opinion is too risky bet on the point spread because of the home crowd factor, that's why I will stick to the total instead. I really like the over here because Providence can score in bunches against anybody in the land, while at the same time they give up a sh1t load point to all of the top Big East teams.


    Indiana State +9 at Wichita State
    Indiana state has won 5 games in row, so I'm going to keep riding them while they're hot. Wichita on the other hand, is coming off a good win against a very good Cleveland State. I expect them to relax a little here, and Indiana State might be able to flat out win this thing.
