not sure if there will be a Best Bets thread tomorrow cause Illusion will be away for a few days, so i'll just post my only pick now for tomorrow... if a new thread is started i'll include it there as well

Cavs -0.5 (3 units to win 2) vs. Grizzlies - inspired by my recent string of buying points, and quick pro lesson, I'll do it once again here. Currently Cleveland is favored by 2 points and I bought it down to 0.5, or practically a pick'em by saving a bit of juice. The Cavs are a MUCH better team that Memphis. They are currently playing really well, with their last win coming against a Charlotte team who is also playing very well. The Grizzlies on the other hand are moving in the opposite direction, and it seems management is just waiting for Gasol to demand a trade. Mike Conley has been a pleasant surprise of late, playing pretty well when given the chance to start. Rudy Gay and Mike Miller can rack up the points too but Cleveland pressure defense will be too much for this below .500 team. Larry Hughes is coming back around and playing like he did 4 years ago, look for him and Big Z to step it up and win it with King James tomorrow night.

Not a bad day for me after liking not one game at first glance last night. 3-0 (+4 Units).
