I like NBA betting, specifically handicapping games in the NBA. There is money to make in NBA betting as long as you are smart enough to look at all the angles and have the patience to play in this admittedly difficult sport.

In my article, I want to share things which you need to know in NBA betting so that just like me, you can enjoy the games and make some money.

New NBA Foul Rules

2011-07-14 16:08:00

Why, when the referees make poor calls, it has to be simply because they just didn't get a good evening's sleep the night before on the nice comfortable memory foam bed mattress. Or they didn't get the opportunity to take an afternoon nap.
These people probably didn't get a good night's rest upon a memory foam mattress as the referees have to travel much more than the players do through the entire NBA season.

The Boston Celtics became part of the National Basketball Association in 1949 and was the first franchise to draft an African American player when they signed Chuck Cooper.  The early years were a struggle for the Celtics until they hired coach Red Auerback.  Auerback, who had coached in the military during WWII, built the champion Celtics for more than a decade by drafting great players and making smart ...
