what you cooking for tonight durden? I'm a total rookie noob who finally started an account on fanduel few days ago lol.. it's insane how much more fun it makes watching the games when every possession can affect your pocket

D'Angelo Russell ruined a fair bit of parlays last night with that awful shooting XD

Planned to "slow down" a bit while waiting for my series bets (discplined betting theys said. LOL) so maybe just one bet a day (if i can find that discipline. LOL) rest of the first round.

Today, i'll just have G3 Mavs -4.5 vs Clippers $70.

(Thinking hard about the Under on that one, but we could get a Luka/Kyrie explosion at home in Dallas so sort of hesitant on that line)
