    Haha, love the little guy so much.

    In other news, watching the Heat-Spurs game today makes me appreciate how huge Ginobli is for them. Coming off the bench he allowed Pop to rest Parker and Duncan with no ensuing drop-off to their scoring ability. With him out, their second unit couldn't score to save their lives and he's having to overplay Duncan and Parker which can only lead to more injuries for them like Tony's ankle sprain today. This is the worst I've ever seen a Spurs team play since they drafted Duncan. Enjoying it tbh.

    Also, Michael Beasley is so awesome, he's like a thinner Melo with his scoring and they've got him playing hard defense now too, which he never did at Kansas. Him, Wade and Matrix is such an awesome Big 3 for them, they just need a good big man or two to make this a team which could go deep into the playoffs.

    EDIT: Wow, typed it too soon. Beasley gets injured and the Spurs cut a 24 point lead to 9 in 3 minutes.

    Are Houston going to win, or am I going to lose money?

    Win what? The title? It depends if Yao stays fit and T-Mac doesn't choke come the playoffs they match up well with anyone. Still fancy the Celtics though.

    These Clipper mother ****ers are 0-5, yet making a come-back in the one match where I have money against them.

    Haha, well they're due a win, especially at home. They've got a pretty decent team there, just bad luck with the conference they're in.

    I know **** all about NBA. But I bet on Houston at half time (paying generous odds considering they were 9 points up AND playing a team 0-5).

    I also bet on Memphis Grizzlies since they were 2 points down at half time, yet paying over $3.00.

    They're both winning so far. Come on!!!

    They won As did the Houston Rockets.

    Gotta love 'value' half time betting. Doesn't always work out, but its worth a punt.

    Probably would win more money if I knew anything about the NBA though Then again, sometimes less knowledge is better.

    Haha Jono, if you did follow the NBA a little closer you certainly wouldn't have been putting money on the grizzlies

    Makes the win feel even sweeter

    So can someone also tell me why Miami are such long odds against New Orleans? At one stage winning by 1pt, yet paying $6? Hornets have lost two on the trot haven't they?

    Well the Hornets are one of the best teams in the League and have the best Point Guard in the world right now. Miami were horrendous last year, improved this year but are playing back to back games on a West coast trip. Surely Nawlins should be favourites here.

    Haha, well some decent advice as far as NBA regular season games is only bet on the one's with a significance to them.

    So many meaningless games over the course of a season and in a league where high profile officials have been found to have fixed matches and results I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them.
