i don't even remember the houston bet exactly. what was it ? 10 more wins for us ?


15 Homie...


i agreed to that ? was that after harden ?


Yeah you agreed to that... Twas before Harden.. I also said Philly would snag 3 or better IF Bynum played 50 games.. but I'll take the L there if he doesn't (Philly is 4 back of the 3 seed and the Rockets are +13 as we sit). It was just a crow serving bet anyway... Let's add a tiebreaker.

Looks like he's had a stinker.


Lin in January:
12 PPG, 5.7 APG, 38% FG%. Looks as look like November to me, but what do I know? You're the one who "knew" November was irrelevant.


You're off to a good start.


You know what bets are fun... especially when there isn't heaps of money on it so FDR you can keep it civil.

Was trying to tell you the "improvement" in December was just random. A statistical phantom. You were fooled by it. It's such a common mistake to be fooled by very recent data and/or small sample size.

Bulls can't buy a hoop today against Phx but we made them look like the showtime Lakers yesterday.

Indy just half a game behind us for 2nd in the East... They started off 3-6, but have gone 20-8 since. If Granger even makes their offense average they have as good of a shot in the East as any non-Miami team. Don't want to give them home court either, since they are elite there (15-3). I think it's fair to say they weren't a "fluke" last season, as many called them here, they are just as good this year despite not having their best scorer for a single game all year, and any team that plays D like them has a chance to contend in the playoffs.

Ok... how about who wins the MVP?
