Non-MMA Sports Betting Discussion - March, 2018

Waiting to see if the Raptors hit +3. If they do, ill be on them for about 1.5u. If not, ill be on the Raptors ML for half a unit. Too many points to lay on the road (in a very tough place to play) while on a long road trip. Houston is getting a premium price these days and I dont fully think they should be such favorites over a VERY talented (and underrated) Raptors team

17 wins in a row will do that but Yeah I agree. Toronto 27-5 at home this year. 9-1 in their last 10 games. Even as amazing a run as the Rockets are on, I wouldn't give pts at Toronto right now. Probably a pass for me.

I have no problem w Houston getting a premium price, they're definitely deserving of it. But this line is a little ridiculous. Assuming 3 points for home court, this spread would be Rockets -8.5/-9 if the game were in Houston? No way
 
Total looks better ;) GS playing revenge, even if Curry isn't in the line up
Also, GS playing their third game in four nights. Portland might be a play, actually. Originally planned on playing the under...

I'm from Toronto, huge Raps fan. We have one of the best/deep benches in the league.

Thing that concerns me is Houston just finds ways to win and Toronto gave them a beating earlier this year in Houston, so Houston might be out for revenge. It should be a close game.
Feel more confident with the over at 220.

VanVleet is the one of the most underappreciated players in the league
 
Cleveland Cavaliers +1 for 2u
Orlando Magic +3 for 1u; +135 ML for 0.25u
Blazers -1 for 2u; Warriors/Trailblazers u218 for 1u
LA Lakers +7 for 1u
Washington Wizards -3 for 1u

*waiting to see if Raptors get to +3. if they do, 1.5u on +3, if not, 0.5u on their ML*

If anyone wants a write up for any of the plays, gimme a holler

Yep.

Amazing he wasn't drafted. I remember him at Wich St. That said, worked out better for him ending up in Toronto.

He has the second highest plus minus (+324) on the team behind Derozan (+385). Just to put things in perspective, that's 14th highest in all of the NBA

Maybe he wasn't getting the minutes last year behind Cory Joseph but he has made huge leaps in improvement from last year. Kind of reminds me of CJ McCollum, not in terms of skill level but they don't look really athletic but they both have a sneaky athleticism to their game and good/high basketball IQ.

Yup. Great 3 point shooter, doesn't turn the ball over a lot, plays great defense. Wouldn't be shocked if he ended up averaging around 12-15 ppg relatively soon

Valspar Championship
Corey Conners @9.00 10u e/w paying 4 places

He is currently 3 shots ahead and anybody will struggle to hit 3 under tomorrow, I like the way he has been playing the last 2 days and I like him to continue this form into Sunday where we can probably hedge. if this was Woods or one of the bigger names he'd be 2/1.
 
I'm passing altogether on Raptors/Rockets
 
When does the March Madness bracket come out?

Have my Mrs's to fill out for her work pool & i know jack shit about BBall. Any cheat sheet or filled out bracket to copy would be much appreciated, lads.

Lakers not covering that spread was brutal. They had no business not covering that big spread when they were up 1 point w 3 minutes left in the game. I’m on the Heat in about an hour, prob my only play today
