[LT Profits]

Starting Tuesday (April 1), we will start a new April Hoops Parlay Contest with a prize of $250 account at 5 Dimes, 3 time roll-over. Last place will receive a $25 5 Dimes 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), there will be NO last place prize.

*IMPORTANT*
All players must have an account at 5 Dimes prior to making picks Sign up here

Before participating, players must PM their 5 Dimes account ID to SBRforum Staff


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, NCAA Men's and beginning April 1, NCAA Women's games 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.

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 first place - 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.

[shantystar]

509 Memphis Grizzlies +5,nice team to beat tonight game.514 New York Knicks +6½,another good underdog to beat tonight.

[motley]

Den -12: they just lost to the spoilers of the west and just like houston their next opponent is their favorite opponent. den have been constant in giving sea blowouts and it would only be a let down if they are unable to bounce back big time from the lost and if they also loose this they do not deserve to have a playoff spot but they deserve it thus they will stifle sea with a win that more than covers the spread.

Mil Ind 218.5 Under: the score might hover in the 100s or high 90s but it would lack in the end to give the under the win.

[twtb19]

Sacramento Kings +8
Lakers have lost last 5 ATS while Sac has won last 4 ATS

Orlando Magic -6½
NY hasn't played hard all season, I can't see them all of a sudden deciding to tonight.

[Wrigley]

Memphis Grizzlies +5 and Over 209

both wolves and grizzles going through the motions wont be much de played here. Minny been getting blown out lately I expect another loss

[riverrunner]

Sac +8 Too many points to give at home to a team that has played better as of late. Game should be close and Sac could squeak one out on the ml.

Lac +8 LA has been scoring some points as of late and should keep this one closer than the 17 point rout in their first meeting. Houston should win the game but by no more than 4.

[Junkyard Dog]

512 New Orleans Hornets -6 - cp3 will shred the warriors up with their lack of defense

504 Phoenix Suns -5½ - must win for the mavs but they do not match up well with the suns

[gizmo2431]

Miami Heat Under 174.5
This just seems to be the trend when Miami and Detroit play each other. Both teams run slow paces, and I can't see them playing too heavily as Miami's hopes are gone and Detroit is just in a resting phase going through the motions of the rest of the season.

Portland Trailblazers Under 177
Two slow teams again going at it. San Antonio's defense should drastically slow down the game.

Hope my UNDERS hit =]

[pokernut9999]

Man I suck at these parlays

Conn -8.5 and over 129

Will try womens baskeball, Huskies to roll and cover this total
final score 72-58

[goldengoat]

hornets -6
hornets are on fire and GS is shaky

bucks +9
not sure pacers are 9 points better than anyone

[rake922]

Dallas Mavericks +5½
Mavericks are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games playing on 1 days rest

New York Knicks +6½
Knicks are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog
Magic are 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a ATS win

[louisvillekid]

#504 Phoe -5.5: the Suns are on ABC so maybe they will try to showboat and win.

#512 N.O. -6: the Hornets are still trying to prove they are the best team in the West, i look for a statement at home.

[LT Profits]

WARRIORS +6: Warriors are fighting for playoff lives.

WARRIORS/HORNETS UNDER 221: Warriors actually playing some defense lately.
