NFT: Knicks: Draft week

Italianju : 6/17/2019 8:06 am
Draft is only 3 days away. Might not be the most eventful night for the knicks as #3 should be a lock and we dont pick again until #55. Id love to see us grab an extra pick or two and thats probably doable in the 2nd round.

Also a positive article about how the knicks handled the AD situation.
https://www.postingandtoasting.com/2019/6/16/18679305/the-knicks-wont-sign-or-trade-for-a-star-this-june-you-should-feel-good-about-that

And it does seem the knicks do have interest in Randle, although im curious if that was started by BBI cause this was def the first place i saw it, lol.

the odds do not change based on bets, it is not like betting on games or horse racing where lones shift...

Those odds are set by vegas and dont shift unless they change them

Yes, the odds-makers change them....almost entirely based on bets placed. If someone comes in and makes a huge bet, the house will adjust the line almost instantaneously (or turn the prop 'off' while they decide what the line should be adjusted to)
what i am saying is  
nygiants16 : 6/18/2019 8:38 am : link
it is not solely based on bets placed, vegas uses a bunch of different things to make the odds on future bets like this..

Like last year when the lakers were rumored to get lebron, they skyrocketed up the board...

Look at the knicks odds to win title that is not based on betting...

Lines shift because of betting, this is not just betting..

Someone can come in with a huge bet but if vegas feels like the outcome is not plausible they will leave the odds as is..
they will def move if someone places a large wager....  
Italianju : 6/18/2019 8:38 am : link
that said i dont think you see large wages placed on these kind of bets the same way you see them on games. So in theory a lot of the line is set by vegas as they protect themselves, but again the line will 100% move based on incoming bets.
either way if that line is true..  
Italianju : 6/18/2019 8:39 am : link
something happened somewhere to make whichever sportsbook it was think he is likely a knick.

if vegas feels it is a likely outcome, the line would 100 percent move you are correct..

if someone places a 100 thousand dollar bet on the hawks to win the title the line is not going to move, that is my point
Need a link for that

I guess rhey pull it down every time they put it up..

but it doesnt make sense, if the nets are bringing in heavy bets why make them +300?
Yea strange article  
GMEN46 : 6/18/2019 9:05 am : link
I wouldnt put much into that
If everyone is betting nets  
nygiants16 : 6/18/2019 9:06 am : link
and it is overwhelming the prop why not just make them the overwhelming favorite? why even take bets at +300?

doesnt make sense to me why they would even make that bet available
If someone places a large wager on a prop bet like that  
Zeke's Alibi : 6/18/2019 9:11 am : link
or they get a wave of wagers they will adjust the line like 99% of the time. In a bet like that they assume the bettor has some inside information. This isn't like betting on a game where they shade lines. They put out props to collect the vig.
the limits  
Enzo : 6/18/2019 9:12 am : link
on those kinds of bets are typically very low. It's like betting on WWE. It's relatively low stakes. I wouldn't read too much into it.

bceagle05 : 6/18/2019 10:35 am : link
but the Celtics are gonna be the big losers of the summer. Kyrie and Horford gone, AD in Los Angeles, no more top five picks on a silver platter courtesy of the Nets trade. All they have to show for that trade is one very good player (Tatum) and one solid player (Brown). They'll find a way to stay competitive, but they haven't built anything close to what was expected with all those assets.

According to barretts trainer

He has chsnged his shot a little bit to make it more effecient and smoother stroke. Also has worked on his shiftiness and working on side steps in the half court.

There was a report that the knicks planned to waive him, but nothing official
Correct I misread  
LawrenceTaylor56 : 6/18/2019 10:43 am : link
Lance Thomas is going to be waived since they picked up Triers option. As of right now nothing is official. But by the end of the month Frank will be the longest tenured Knick.

Flash-forward to mid-June and the Knicks' plans for the offseason suddenly look murky.

They, of course, did not get the No. 1 pick in the draft the New Orleans Pelicans landed it in a stunning jump in the lottery. The Knicks got the third overall pick.

Durant so heavily rumored to be joining the Knicks that Newsday's Steve Popper described the feeling among league executives as "fait accompli" tore his Achilles in the Finals, likely keeping him out of the entire 2019-20 season.

Irving now seems more interested in joining the Brooklyn Nets, according to various reports. He recently changed his representation to Roc Nation, an agency with ties to the Nets.

Davis was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday. According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, the Knicks did not include second-year players Kevin Knox and Mitchell Robinson, two of their best assets, in offers to the Pelicans.

Correct me if I'm wrong but they were a few million under 2  
TheMick7 : 6/18/2019 11:50 am : link
max contracts before signing Trier. Now,signing 2 may no longer be in the cards but if it is,I'd imagine they'd need to clear up more space besides Thomas. Wouldn't surprise me to see them try to move Frank for a mid/lower 1st as he was a Phil draft pick & it would open up cap space!

62-125. Almost 21 attempts per game
If I could turn Barrett into Garland, Hayes and Porter, Id do it.  
Jim in Hoboken : 6/18/2019 12:17 pm : link
But thats not likely given where the Hawks pick.

Barrett has that alpha mentality which will compensate for whatever deficiencies he has now at 18. I just wish he was a little more twitchy and explosive.

I am sick of watching Frenchie whos afraid to do anything and Knox who played like he was in a rec league game last year.

Darius Garland will conduct a last-minute workout in Tarrytown with the New York Knicks tomorrow, a source told ESPN. Garland is in serious consideration for the No. 3 pick. Minnesota, Boston, Chicago are teams looking at potentially trading up to No. 4 with Garland in mind.


Seems late in the game for a smokescreen. Probably for due diligence should someone come in with a great offer.
This is interesting...

Yes, but you can put the bet in multiple times and at different books. They set limits low on bets like this because it becomes apparent right away when someone has inside info. So yeh I would read a lot into this.
