adam3248 · 11-03-10, 05:21 PM

Any thoughts on my picks for tonight?

MrSink · 11-03-10, 05:24 PM

Like your plays!
I put some units on Memphis Grizzlies/Golden State Warriors Over 219
Minnesota Timberwolves/Orlando Magic Under 205

adam3248 · 11-03-10, 05:46 PM

I also lean towards the over in the grizzlies/warriors matchup.. not so sure about the wolves/magic game.. I think a lot of it will come down to how many points the magic can prevent the wolves from scoring because i think the magic will be hot on the offense.. i'm sat on the fence with this total.

However, good luck with your picks!

847jhop10 · 11-03-10, 10:04 PM

nice job dude

adam3248 · 11-03-10, 10:14 PM

thanks

sweating on the hornets/rockets game at the end.. looked sure to go under 206.5 but a late rally made it finish on 206.
hopefully my lakers/kings pick won't dissapoint.. although can't grumble at 4-1 by any means.

adam3248 · 11-04-10, 04:27 AM

Perfect night last night as I completed a 5-0 sweep

Hornets/Rockets -2.5 1H HC

Lakers/Kings OVER 208
Bucks/Celtics -2 1Q HC

5 WINS 0 LOSSES

adam3248 · 11-04-10, 05:09 AM

Thursday's pick: Lets try and make it 6-0

Oklahoma City Thunder @ Portland TrailBlazers OVER 192.5

The Thunder are averaging 100.5 ppg and the Blazers 98.4 ppg. The Thunder are allowing 106.5ppg and the Blazers 92.2 ppg.
The fact Oklahoma is playing back to back games is not an issue, they like to play with a high tempo and score quick points, they will be up for this game for sure after a road favourite loss to the LA Clippers last night. Portland will be looking to back up their solid road win last time out with a good performance here as i see this game going over the posted total of 192.5

Feel free to post your thoughts.

Thanks and good luck!

adam3248 · 11-05-10, 08:11 AM

Lets extend this 100% NBA record tonight!

I have three picks so far for tonight's games which are:

(1)
Washington Wizards @ NY Knicks

New York is 7-2 ATS their last 9 games vs Washington. The Knicks are 4-0 ATS their last 4 games vs. a team with a win percentage below 40%. The Knicks are 4-1 ATS their last 5 Conference games and they are also 4-1 ATS when their opponent allows 100 or more points in their previous game.

Pick: NY Knicks -5.5

(2)
Milwaukee Bucks @ Indiana Pacers

I like the look of the Bucks in this matchup tonight. Especially when looking into quarter's betting. The bucks are currently listed as +0.5 for the 1st quarter handicap, and by looking at the stats, this can be identified as a good value pick.

The Bucks have been strong in 1st quarter play as they currently stand at 4-1 ATS this year. Facing Boston, Portland, Charlotte, Minnesota & New Orleans and outscoring these teams in 1st quarter play by a combined total of 128-120

The Pacers however have been the opposite and currently stand at 0-4 ATS on 1st quarter handicaps this year. Facing Philadelphia (twice), Charlotte and San Antonio being outscored by a combined total of 125-95.

The Bucks also own a 5-1 ATS record in 1st quarter handicap's vs the Pacers over their last 6 meetings.

Pick: MIL Bucks +0.5 1Q HC

(3)
Memphis Grizzlies @ Pheonix Suns

The game total has gone OVER in 6 of the Suns last 7 games at home.
The total has gone OVER in 4 of the Suns last 5 games when playing the Grizzlies and OVER in 5 of 5 when at home.

In the Suns last 5 games at home vs the Grizzlies, both teams have combined for a total 1,149 points. Divide this total between the 5 games and we are seeing an average total of 229.8 points in this spot.

Pick: MEM Grizzlies @ PHO Suns OVER 220.5

(4)
Toronto Raptors @ Los Angeles Lakers

Kobe Bryant is looking healthy and is coming off the 17th triple double of his career in a 112-100 win at Sacramento last time out. Kobe has averaged 33.6 points and shot 49.8% in his last 10 home games vs Toronto. The Lakers have averaged 110.3 points during an 8-0 home winning streak vs the Raptors. Toronto hasn't beaten the Lakers on the road since 2001.

The Raptors are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a road underdog of 11 points or more. The Lakers are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games after allowing 100+ points in their previous game.

Pick: LA Lakers -13.5
