Slicer -- where do you guys post the picks for the competition? I see some of the picks on WBA's thread everyday, but not all?
thanks
It's on another site. We're not allowed to say. I did a thread on where to find the picks one time but it mentioned the site and I got sanctioned for it.
I'll try to be more diligent in getting them up on willbet's post in the batters up forum on here, somedays I forget to, since I'm rated at the other place I have to log them in there.
I bet on the Fakers on 1Q, 1H and FG and buy in all back on 2H Hou +9.5 and under 96
Lucky to break even today.
Fxxx the Fakers

Sorry to say it JBril, but them Lakers was exposed.
I was all ready to blame it all on Kobe as i like to do (rushing too many bad shots in the 1H, and then that pass to no one in the 3Q which led to a 3pt play at the other end; the game ended right there), but then i saw Pau trying to guard the pick and roll in the 4Q ... WOW, i thought Shaq was the worst at that. Either show over the screen to stop the ballhandler or retreat into the paint to protect the rim. Pau just stood in the middle - unable to get to the shooter if it was a pick n' pop, and unable to guard Brooks when he blew by him with a head of steam in the open floor.
Then there's that whole "soft" thing.
Pau !
Bynum !
Has D Fish fallen off the face of the Earth?
If he can't knock down the open shot when the ball rotates to him out of a double-team, who will?
On the road - NOBODY
Ariza?
Vooyabitch?
Luke? (could have been his worst game ever)
Shannon Brown?
Lamar ? - rarely does he even want it
This means the Lakers' title hopes hang on ...
Jordan Farmar ???
After what i saw tonight, i gotta have Josh Powell (!) as my fifth guy in crunch time to go with Kobe, Pau, Lamar, and Farmar (I like Fish, but i think i just threw him under the bus). Powell has a toughness those other guys don't, and his jumper might actually be more reliable under pressure.
Gotta give credit to Houston.
Whenever She-Mac didn't play this year, i was all over them.
I love Scola and Battier.
They know how to win and they're RELIABLE !
Chuck Hayes, Lowry ... these guys fight.
Brooks played great (helped by Pau), and so did Landry off the bench.
I lost money on this game (i had it teased both ways), but at least it was nice to see "heart" smack "talent".

You pretty much summed it up. I was disgusted watching this team last night.
If they play like they did in game 4 or 6 against Denver they will be swept out of the playoffs.
I lost 7.5 units because of this game. Done for the week. I will see you guys next week.
Oh and Ax has his Dad in town he will be back soon
