NBA Playoffs Betting Thread
Hey everyone,
This is a thread to post your betting picks for the playoffs. My picks are on the left side.
1 Betting unit = $500 = 1.0U (therefore 1.5U = $750, 2.0U = $1000, 3.0U = $1500, etc.)
If you don't specify units, then we'll assume your pick is for 1.0U.
Let's see who is the best handicapper throughout the playoffs.
4/14/18
2.0U: Spurs (+8) at Warriors
1.0U: Raptors (-8) vs Wizards
3.0U: Sixers (-6.5) vs Heat
2.0U: Blazers (-5.5) vs Pelicans

We'll assume all these picks are for 1.0U unless you specify otherwise. I'll edit the OP to reflect this.

I'm setting $500 as the standard betting unit. Therefore 1.0U = $500. So 2.0U = $1000 and 3.0U = $1500.
If you are very confident in a pick, you can bet more than 1.0U.

Also think in about picking the wizards to win the series
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

$500 for the unit size is an arbitrary number. You can set your unit size to anything you want.

Re: NBA Playoffs Betting Thread
Not a good start for me with the Spurs looking like Boxer from Animal Farm - time for the glue factory. Even points on the 2nd half spread but I have no confidence the Spurs will close to within 16 (the halftime margin) by the end of the game. More likely they get the doors blown off them, so no more money from me on this game.
Need to bounce back the rest of the day.

2.0U: Spurs (+8) at Warriors - L
2.0U: Raptors (-7.5) vs Wizards
3.0U: Sixers (-6.5) vs Heat
2.0U: Blazers (-5.5) vs Pelicans
