There's no reliable method of handicapping that turns a profit with the NBA. Year in, year out this is the only sport that consistently puts me in the red. To hell with the whole f*cking league.

Now that you realize this, you can make some money. Throw the systems, angles, charts, graphs out the window. Just try to beat the closing number and get good odds, the rest will [with a little luck] take care of itself.

Thats why I dont bet on the NBA. I even tried fading myself and then just gave up.

[willyback]

If the oddsmakers are "soooo good" when it comes to establishing NBA sides then they must have a successful way of determining the outcome of all match-ups? What's their angle? Are the oddsmakers the ultimate handicappers?

[buztah]

It's all random. Take the points.

[willyback]

Can't be random. If it was random the NBA would have a fixed spread for all games.

There's got to be a method behind the madness.

The method is that there is no method.

Stats, previous match-ups with each other, recent road/home records of teams playing, scores of recent games, certain trends, injuries, road games in a certain number of days...tons of stuff that needs to be looked at. I usually spend a few hours per NBA card.

UjustCan'tPhuckenwin.com! We do this because we are phucking degenerates and that's all!

To hell with that degenerate sh*t. I'm not here to make the sportsbooks rich. It's all about getting paid. I take it personal when the book beats me on a bet. I'm usually cashing out - except for the basketball season. Freaking NBA!!!

Naw... it can't be random. If it was random, oddsmakers wouldn't exist (there would be no need for them).

You're too emotional. Just pick a side, don't even watch the game, whack off instead or something, and then check the score afterwards.

[willyback]

I'm an emotional motherf*cker - especially when it comes to money. You wanna screw my girl (have fun), you wanna take my money (get a gun). I take situations very seriously when there's money involved.

Buztah, I respect your laid back attitude when it comes to this e-gaming sh*t, but I just can't chill unless I'm getting paid.

[diogee]

It takes a ton of work in all honesty willyback...there are several other things that I did not list that I use. Not even quite sure why I do it for the small money I play with right now. I guess I am just a degenerate phucker

[willyback]

It's all good. I'm just fuming right now. MLB is right around the corner. I'll get my money back (we probably all will). I just need to go back and research this NBA crap - look at games from an oddsmakers angle.
