This week will be known as "Toro Week" as danrman turned the light on for me and I had an epiphany. I want to take the Bulls this week all week long win or lose and see if they can get me 3 covers out of the 4 games they play against New York, Atlanta, Toronto (which will be the toughest one) and Minny. 2 home and two road. Thank you danrman for giving me the inspirational information. I'm gonna set it off and carjack his pick and ride with him on this one-Bulls+2.5 with no cut on it and the moneyline when it comes out. I think that he has an excellent side play tonight.
Well now, we enter day 3 with the challenge going full steam and the combatants are working around the clock to bring you more of what ya need. On the docket tonight, we have a million NBA games for us to wager on. I myself have chosen a few to try out...
Here's my four
Houston has the Denver's number in battles waged in Texas. I am making this wager knowing full well that the odds of McGrady and Artest playing this evening are not likely in my favor, and I am taking a shell of what the Rockets could be. Despite that fact I am going to ride them tonight with the chalk. They are 4-1 ats and straight up playing the McNuggets at home, and i look for that trend to continue. Rest is not a factor for either team, but Kenyon Martin is. And he is not playing all too well these days.
Houston-2.5 I already played this one
I already pointed out on yesterday's thread that the under in games played between Indiana and New Orleans in the Big Easy usually go under the total and it is 4-1 ats for the under. With an over under line of 210.5 I find that number to be too high and i have already played this one, as i anticipate that the number will go lower once the linemaker realizes that he made a mistake. The Hornets are playing their first home game after a long east coast road trip.
Indiana/New Orleans under 210.5 (already played)
I couldn't refuse this one as I had to change my play from UAB to Texas A&M on this one. The Jayhawks have had more han their share of troubles form A&M over the years at home, and have not defeated them by this margin in over 5 years. I am sorry but I must take the points in this matchup.
I have to take this heavy favorite because i talked myself into it. Phoenix is coming off of a win that went over the total yesterday morning in Toronto. Boston is fresh off blasting tune up Nets games, and they are home where the fans need a sgnature win to get them back into it. Against this version of the Celtics, the Gang Green beat the Suns by 10 theh last time they played them in Beantown. The spread was 7 that day, and the spread is 8 this time. More of the same. I'm taking the
Celtics-8 ( I would like to watch the line on this one, but since I am in a challenge, I will play it now as well now that I think about it)
College basketball
Texas A&M+10 This one was no brainer. Of course I took those points. It's been 5 years since the Jayhawks have beat them by this kind of number. This isn't Colorado in the gym this time.
There's mine, ladies and gentlemen.
Records to date for the challenge
CK 4-1-1
hockeytown 2-3-1
hockeytown11, don't act like you don't already know the rules by now, so let's get that set of picks before you have a chance to call up a pick service. You have until 4:00am pst to get those picks in, good fellow. And please don't start with all of the bullbleep and name calling nonsense. Willie Bee the moderator has already spoken to both of us, so don't get yourself thrown off the thread before I have a chance to finish this thing of ours. If you don't come with those picks I will have to declare that you have forfeited this matchup, as i have not been reprimanded by the moderators until you showed up trying to make a name for yourself. I am sure that the CK Mafia does not want to lose me again. I can't let you mess up a good thing by responding to your actions if you behave the way you have been known to act so far.
