Alright, so the goal is 67%, currently were at 3 - 1 or 75%, lets keep this going.
Also was wondering if you guys want me to have a continuous thread or a website/blog or twitter account.
Boston Celtics -3 (Tease) vs Cleveland Cavaliers Over 182
Cleveland has looked awfully good in preseason, and according to last nights game, Rajon Rondo had 17 assists. The 182 is a bit low, it would make more sense if it was around 187 but it's still preseason and the bookies believe the Celtics will play better defense. I don't see the same defense because of age, loss of Tony Allen etc and if anything Boston should be able to score over a 100 on this one.
New York Knicks +2 and Over 211
The Knicks are a better team than the raptors even though they are away I know I will never put my money on that team. Stoudemire will most likely have another 30 point game and defense will be limited as the Raptors play a very fast Golden-state offense with no half court sets. This might be the highest scoring game of the night.
Milwaulkee Bucks +3 (Tease)
The Bucks are a good team and have an excellent coach in Skiles. The Hornets look miserable in preseason and although one might say you can't tell much by preseason, Chris Paul doesn't have the same chemistry after the injury or persistent role layers to win this one.
Chicago Bulls +6 (Tease) and Over 196
This might be the upset of the night as two very young and up and coming teams are going against each other. The trick for the bulls to win this one is to let go of the leash on Luol Deng and Noah. Kevin Durant is a great defender and Westbrook is a great defender as well but Rose should have the best of Westbrook as Durant has the best of Deng. The Bulls bench is a bit deeper and Noah is definitely a big edge. This game depends on how well Durant plays and its his game to lose.
Utah Jazz +3.5 (Tease) and Over 205
The Jazz are the better team and the Nuggets know that with a Melo that isn't playing up to his own hype and wanting out of there. These two teams won't play defense however both teams have more guns than most of entire NBA, look for Aaron Afflalo and Al Jefferson to have big nights in supporting both Melo and DWilliams in this game.
Portland Trailblazers -2.5 and Over 192.5 (Tease)
The Trailblazers look a lot better after their season opener and Brandon Roy was a complete leader, showing off his shooting and defense. The Trailblazers are a streaky team and if they started the season with a bang, it should carry over to beat an inexperienced Clippers team that still needs more adjusting. The Trailblazers surprisingly broke the century mark last night and should be able to and the Clippers will score more than 90 points in this game.
Charlotte Bobcats vs Dallas Mavericks Over 183.5
This might be a trick setting the point total so low however the Bobcats are significantly better than the defensive powerhouse team last year. Even if Jackson won't live up to his owner Michael Jordan's expectations, they should be able to score with some of the newer additions to their team. The Mavericks have the advantage in the paint and will be able to move the ball around as Dirk and Caron should have big games.
Alright Guys, I hope we go 12 for 12 but if we don't it's not the end of the world. Expecting another profiting day from right plays, would love some input, nominations and points as well.

I like the New York bet, will be keen to get off to a good start and I don't see either team offering much in terms of defence. Good luck!
