[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.

[louisvillekid]

#703 Tor +3 : the Raps have won the past 4 match-ups

#703 Tor/ATL un 205 : these 2 teams haven't broke 200 in their past 5 match-ups.

[Junkyard Dog]

708 Boston Celtics -10½ - celts will crush pacers as they tune up for the playoffs

720 Los Angeles Lakers -13 - no roy, no chance to keep it close for blazers

[motley]

gsw dal: 215O - gsw is an offense minded team and dallas is not playing enough defense like the spurs that can buckle down on players. also the 4th qtr rest should be enough motivation for gsw to come out firing.

tor atl: 205O - chris bosh alone on defense would not create too much trouble for the surging home team of atlanta and both teams have been playing good offense in the past few games.

for both games: these teams is on a playoff push that uses offense to feed their contention.

[seaborneq]

Atl -3, No Bosh, no problem, I can't believe the Hawks are favored in games this late in the season that mean something


Golden State +4.5, Dallas is feeling the pressure, I'll take Nellie and his Mav voodoo doll to win outright

where did you see that Bosh was out?

[shantystar]

trail blazers+13.5,new team to beat giant.
dallas uner 215,best bet of mine.

[stump]

701 Cleveland Cavaliers -3 playoff push starts for the cavs

705 Milwaukee Bucks +10 wizs home off trip, too many pts

[LT Profits]

RAPTORS +3: The Raptors are a perfect 4-0 both SU and ATS in the last four meetings, and this has been a Visitors Series, with the road team going 14-6 ATS in the last 20 head-to-head.

KNICKS +8.5: The Knicks have actually covered three straight games, all on the road, and while the Grizzlies have played better lately, they don't deserve to be favored by this much over anyone.

[twtb19]

Portland - LAL under 204.5
Portland is horrible on the road and I expect them to have trouble scoring.

Boston -10.5
Boston has won 4 straight winning all of them ATS.

[harsh506]

cleveland and atlanta both -3

lebron and i think atlanta has to sharpen up before the celtics in the playoffs

[pokernut9999]

Bradley over 141: think the score will be close to last match up.


GS over 215 : Do not know why I like the over ? Both teams seem worn out.

[LLXC]

715 Golden State Warriors +4½
715 Golden State Warriors Over 215

I'm a square so I'm taking the Warriors and the points and the Over. The Warriors have not lost 2 games in a row since January and I hope that continues.
