[B.A.R.]

New month, let's go!

Lots going on around the league.

 

[Big daddy naught]

Knicks w the free bucket tonight.

 

[Noles4life]

Worried bout there POint guard play could come into affect this game

 

[Ryno14]

Giannis late scratch

 

[Ryno14]

Was on over but bought out after that

 

[twinkie13]

Pels are in a bad way. Sucks to have such a hole, but the Zion thing looms like bad rain

 

[B.A.R.]

Bulls taking it to the Knick's early on.

LaVine just so fun to watch

Caruso just an absolute pest.

 

[B.A.R.]

This is fun now at MSG.

 

[Big daddy naught]

Knicks fightin let’s go

 

[KJ]

Thunder are +74.5 with 3:30 to go, not sure how that next flight goes

 

[B.A.R.]

Not sure if tonight is the turning of the corner but starting to get the wild end of quarters more and more

23 last 3 mins in Phoenix...part of 72 overall for the 2nd quarter...

End of 3rd was wild in Memphis too...and continued all of the 4th...

Knicks and Bulls went over by 20+

Only dull game was missing the Giannis element.

I don’t care if sga was out or not but damn a hs team could lose by less than 70

 

[B.A.R.]

And a wild one in Phoenix now.

Detroit offense going nuts (for them).

Phx might sandbag. Big game tomorrow

Oh, horrid spot.

They played one half

Gotta give a good 4th now.

Sadly I watched most of the 1h, it was a combo of lack of athleticism, one-on-one and terrible shooting

Haven't looked at the blocked shot/DRB numbers for Grizz but they are probably insane

 

[B.A.R.]

Portland and San An playing a 2h more traditional to this season (big 1h then dud in 2h)

Need one more Buckets three

 

[B.A.R.]

I had live over 209 in Portland from early in the game .

Simply needed 94 in 2nd half.

Of a blowout.

Just go get garbage buckets.

We are at 45 Total with 8 mins left.

45!

Live total is 194

2h started at 221.5

 

[B.A.R.]

Spurs have 21 points this half, 6 mins remain and still up 14!

 

[Big daddy naught]

Port without Dame garbage. I like Simons but he’s not progressing on that team. Needs a change of scenery

 

[KJ]

Oh my, not sure I know the difference in her voice from Doris Burke though

ESPN's Beth Mowins will become first woman to call NBA play-by-play on network

The veteran broadcaster has a history of breaking down barriers at the network.

[Big daddy naught]

Hornets short handed and on b2b on Monday vs sixers. After the lights out shooting to beat thd hawks maybe good fade material

 

[Big daddy naught]

Head scratcher with my Knicks being favored Tuesday night in SA where we always struggle. We have so many issues rn. No chemistry with the starting unit. Spurs playing good ball, just beating Gsw and losing a tight one to phx last night?

Spurs definitely used a lot of energy coming back all 2h there.

There's no January thread yet, but this hit the wire today:

Beginning on January 15th, any NBA player who is not fully vaccinated will be unable to enter Canada to play games in Toronto.

Just for @twinkie13 an update on the new restaurant critic in town

Zion Williamson weighs 330 pounds right now?

Over the following few days, fans would go crazy trying to guess his current weight, but ESPN’s Tim MacMahon seems to have found the answer. According to his sources, Zion is at 330 pounds ri…

He clearly has no interest playing in no

He clearly has no interest playing in no

His interest was clearly getting paid and not working out

 

[B.A.R.]

Gotta start giving Brodie some love out in L.A.

He's been on a tear the last 10-12 games.

damn, i gotta look hard at harden props!! ! probably a good idea anyways, just crossed my mind who he playing, lol..

 

[2daBank]

so the 3 point props have largely caught up to me, there some good ones here and there but they have either raised most the consistent shooters number or they have them juiced like crazy where it much closer to accurately reflecting their chances of hitting the over!! since ive found myself playing far less of them ive decided to branch off to doing rebound and assist props! last night was my 1st day betting them (for most part, i did bet drummond over rebounds a few games when embid was out with rona!).. anyways tonight steven adams over 8.5 boards seems pretty decent. that right at his average on the year but he going up against a soft dallas team on a b2b, a team he just grabbed 13 boards against last week!

Won by a half a board! Lol. They can’t all be easy, still paid the same!!!

 

[2daBank]

this probably a bad idea as i havnt even tried to play a nba side all year cause i know better, but i really like the lakers tonight. Bron looked so good the other day, he has hardly played any ball this season so i think he pretty fresh at the moment and he knows they need to string some wins together. memphis on b2b and still without Ja, point guards been a nightmare for lakers so not having him bigger in this game than others imo. again i am pretty clueless far as nba reg season sides go but just feels to me like Bron gonna get them rolling on this road trip.. -3 seems cheap if i get that bron again..

Impressive how well they played. I like them cause I’m a sucker for defense, they finally got one them high picks right with Mobley, him and Allen a awesome pair.

Yup.

Might be a bit of value coming up.

The Scoot Henderson hype train has officially ran off the rails

Bol just posted Dallas at Indy 2H total at 103.5
Dallas TT at 57
Indy TT at 56

I played both TT under and 2H over…..going for the middle here

That's a wild differential.

What was the juice on the TTs?

I actually love sexton, BUT since he’s been out and having a true vet pure point guard like Rubio has made a ton of difference. Garland has blossomed, and I like both he and Colin separately but not playing together. Mobley was a good pick, Allen has been great, the trade for markannen was solid. Great front office work

They all -110 juiced…..even the 2H total….

I ended up juiced out on the plays…….

I was expecting a mistake from BOL…..was surprised to see it that’s why I went for middle opportunity…..

Disgusting stuff by the Sixers tonight ruling Embiid out 5 minutes before the game tipped.

Feel sorry for anyone who bet Philly.

League getting more and more 'cosy' with the books.

Zero fucking transparency.

Just terrible, smh.
