2010-2011 Season NBA Picks

[DukeJohn]

I like Memphis +3.5. What do you think?

Of course I wouldn't actually put money on it because the game doesn't meet some of my criteria, however the being said, I think Memphis will win the game outright, so that fact that you are getting +3.5 is great

So, I think it is an excellent choice.

BoL,

[DukeJohn]

19 – New York Knicks +2.5
19 – Phoenix Suns –7.5

My first thought on the Phoenix / Cleveland game was Phoenix should win by at least 8, so it was nice to see the number at -7.5.

BoL to us all,

[Soon2BRich]

BoL,

That was a close game, but Memphis only lost by one so it was a winner for ya

[DukeJohn]

I really thought they would have done better than that, losing by 15, that is just crazy

19 – New York Knicks +2.5

Phoenix wins by exactly 8... crazy world... The Knicks got whipped hard

G'night and see ya tomorrow,

21 – New York Knicks +8.5

I know what your thinking, they just got killed, how can you think they will compete with San Antonio. The easy answer, idk, the computer told me to make the pick, lol…

lol.. losing by a half point, gotta love it. I realize many of you got a +9 and got a push. The line moved soon after I posted, I even got the +9 in a contest, but it isn’t what I put money on.

G’night and see ya tomorrow,

22 – New York / Oklahoma -7
22 – Memphis Grizzlies +3

BoL to us all,

Oklahoma pulled out the win at the end, but just not enough to cover the spread. Memphis held a lead through every quarter.

Denver lead the entire game by a good margin. Sacramento never could pull it out, got a little close in the end, but that was about it.

G’night and see ya tomorrow,

too many people on SAC, so Charlotte won

Charlotte looked good, we will see how they hold up against Phoenix.

[DukeJohn]

26 – Charlotte / Phoenix –6.5

I got to the lines a little late as this line moved from -6 earlier, hopefully you can pick up the -6.5 and yes I would even take it at -7

BoL to us all,

[jolmscheid]

Sounds good Duke...I got on the Suns at -7 earlier...now it moved down to -6.5 Ah well...hopefully 7 is good enough

[DukeJohn]

The line was sure backwards in this game...

Charlotte did a great job of out scoring Phoenix. Didn't know they had it in them. The final score was 114 - 107

Best of Luck to us all,

[franklt]

with you, good luck

[jolmscheid]

Go get em!

[DukeJohn]

with you, good luck

Go get em!

So close it seemed, but in-the-end, we lost

[DukeJohn]

27 – Boston / Portland +4.5

That was a hard game. I kept expecting Portland to rally back and they were just shut down by Boston. After the 1st quarter they were down by 3, then after then 2nd they were down by 4. Now usually a team will make adjustments and the third quarter will set the pace for the rest of the game, however after the third Portland was down by 6. At this time, I was pretty sure Portland was going to lose, just was hoping they would cover. Sadly that was not the case and Portland lost by 10.

I should be coming out with today's picks in a few,

28 – Charlotte / GSW –4
28 – Boston / Phoenix +3.5
28 – Washington / Oklahoma –10

Charlotte has looked really good against high scoring teams and has shown they have no problems scoring high themselves. One of those games I wouldn’t be betting on if the computer didn’t say to do it or if I was, I would be on Charlotte.

Phoenix, come on computer. Boston has shown a real tenacity for defense, shutting down high power offensive teams. Not to take away from Phoenix, but really, over Boston and only giving 3.5 points. Not-to-mention Phoenix has a losing record. Sometimes I don’t understand my own programing, but I am on Phoenix.

Washington / Oklahoma, what is there to say. Washington has lost all it’s road games and seems to be struggling. So, I am inline with the computer on this one, but 10 points, um, not sure. This is a professional team after all and you never know when things might click. However, I would probably make this bet or do something crazy like drop $650 on the money line to win $100.

I should have followed my own advice lol. Oh, well, it could have gone either way on the GSW game and Oklahoma. GSW made a lot of errors in OT. They literally dropped the ball. As for Oklahoma, Washington, just showed up to play. Washington may have lost the game, but took it to OT twice. Good Job guys.

Well the record is dropping as it does sometimes in Sports Betting.

G'night and see ya tomorrow,

29 – Washington / Memphis –9

Washington coming off a bitter loss yesterday, although they did really well against a stronger opponent in Oklahoma. I personally think this line is a little too much. I would say Memphis wins by 4, however, I of course know better than to bet my personal feelings. I am on Memphis all the way today.

See, just goes to show. I never really know what is going on. My opinions were sound as I listed above, but Memphis just controlled the entire game and when they came out of the half they just exploded on Washington. Emotional control is hard in this industry and that is why I always push people toward their own set of rules. It just sometimes takes a long time to discover what those rules are.

Well, G'night and see ya tomorrow,
