NBA picks

[JMobile]

yeah, it's now 1:05am here

I'm glad your on the same side s.b.n

It's about to be 8pm over here.

[Chris8989]

did you watch it? some crazy events at the end of the game, made it look rigged. Some awful calls by the officials against Boston, a couple of uncharacteristic turnovers from Boston players and Ray Allen, a very high percentage free-throw shooter misses both attempts with seconds left on the clock so Spurs covered the spread by 1..

I won't complain though ... until i'm on the recieving end of one

I didn't see it mate but I've read some forums about how much of a fix it was, a 90% FT shooter missing 2 at the death and all the refs bad calls. Shocking if it was a fix but a win's a win

It's about to be 8pm over here.

4:20am here now dedication

[adam3248]

My *pick of the day* selection cashes as the Hawks/Jazz game total goes over 190 Currently 2-1 on tonight's picks.. Just need Lakers -4 to come in for a strong 3-1 night

GO LAKERS !!

[Chris8989]

Nice one mate I only had the one play on Nuggets vs Clippers today. 94 scored first half, gives me 116 I can afford to be scored in the 2nd half, by no means a dead cert but its looking good so far!

[adam3248]

yeah looking decent so far then good luck! I thought my Hawks/Jazz over 190 was in the bag, gave me more of a scare than I thought. Going into the 4th just needed 36 points. Only hit the over with about 1:02 left.

[adam3248]

I really need to try and get back into a normal sleeping pattern staying up till 4-5am every night is killing me lol

Although I don't mind it if the winners keep on coming!

[Chris8989]

Yeah I seen that cos when it got to 190 I remembered u had the OVER so watched the last minute to see if it did mate people are going mad on here about the Celtics/Spurs game, sounds like a right fix up!! Wish I had seen the last few minutes now!

[Chris8989]

I really need to try and get back into a normal sleeping pattern staying up till 4-5am every night is killing me lol

Although I don't mind it if the winners keep on coming!

I know man I'm knackered too! The only reason I'm up this late is cos I'm doing an essay/sleep pattern's ******! Downing some hot chocolate and coffee, see if I can stay up for the day! lol you still working at Blue Inc?

[adam3248]

aah fair enough lol. Nah i'm not there anymore mate. Just watchin the end of the Lakers game. -4 is gonna be close.. Go Lakers!

[adam3248]

Artest sinks the 3 pointer! back up by 6 now. 1 min 30 left

[adam3248]

OMG! that's a pisstake! Suns hit a 3 with seconds left to make it a push so frustrating! they were covering for virtually the whole of the 2nd half. up by 8 up by 6 up by 12 up by 7 and finishes 99-95. stayed up till 6am for a push

[Chris8989]

I didn't see the end to that mate, my Internet was playing up on the stream but that is unlucky! I'm still sure theres some fixing going on in the NBA by the looks of things, not so much in the Lakers game just but the Spurs/Celtics game looked fishy, I've seen the two Spurs fouls that they benefitted from! Can't believe the Clippers won ML, I'm not complaining my pick cashed!

[portnoy65]

Closer, but winner Good Luck Adam!! I was just -3.5

[JMobile]

Good morning Adam and portnoy.
It's 6:48am here.

[portnoy65]

Good morning Adam and portnoy.
It's 6:48am here.

Good evening JM
It's 8.25 PM

Have You got a good pick??

[blinky88]

how's dallas looking??

[adam3248]

I have 3 picks for tonight (1 NCAAB, 1 NCAAF and 1 NHL)

I will post them in a few minutes along with analysis.

Best of luck all! Lets keep this profitable run going!

[adam3248]

Montana -1.5 @ Northern Colorado (NCAAB) 1.5 Units

Montana is in a nice spot here tonight. They are 21-7 vs losing teams the past few years and 20-8 after allowing 60 or less points, including 6-1 this season. They are in off a conference win and are 17-8 in that role. With 5 or 6 days rest they have won 9 of the past 11 times.

North Colorado is 1-4 this season vs teams with a winning record and 2-8 vs teams who play solid defense and allow less than 64 points per game. Six of the seven times they were a dog this season they lost the game. They have not fared well in this series losing 7 of the last 9.

Look for Montana to extend their dominance in the series and tally-up another win and cover tonight.

Best of luck!

[adam3248]

Middle Tennessee State Vs Miami *GAME TOTAL UNDER 49* (NCAAF) 2 Units

Trend play:

Bet ‘under’ with neutral field teams where the total is between 42.5 and 49 and is an average rushing team gaining between 140-190 rushing yards per game and facing a good rushing defense allowing 100-140 rushing yards per attempt after seven or more games of the regular season have been completed. 51% of these plays have gone ‘under’ by seven or more points and under scores my belief that 40 points will be scored in this game. Head coach Stockstill is 10-2 UNDER (+7.8 Units) after allowing 6.25 or more yards/play in their previous game as the coach of Middle Tennessee State.

This has produced 74% winners over the last 10 years with a 26 Unders 9 Overs record.

Good value with the Under here. Best of luck all!

[adam3248]

Philadelphia Flyers (MONEYLINE) @ New Jersey Devils (NHL) 1 Unit

Firstly, possible boost for Philly is that the New Jersey goaltender Marty Brodeur is not expected to start tonight. Philadelphia is 9-2 vs division opponents this year. New Jersey is 10-29 in all games this year. New Jersey is 1-8 vs division opponents this year. New Jersey is 3-13 this year when playing against a team with a winning record.

Flyers are 22-6 in their last 28 when their opponent scores 2 goals or less in their previous game. Flyers are 15-5 in their last 20 games as a favorite of -110 to -150. Flyers are 35-16 in their last 51 vs. Eastern Conference. Devils are 8-22 in their last 30 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. Devils are 5-16 in their last 21 when their opponent allows 2 goals or less in their previous game. Devils are 6-25 in their last 31 games as an underdog. Flyers are 8-2 in the last 10 meetings.

Look for the Flyers to take care of business on the road tonight. Best of luck all!

[adam3248]

Here's my final card for tonight's games:

Montana -1.5 @ Northern Colorada (1.5 Units)
Middle Tennessee State @ Miami UNDER 49 (2 Units)
Philadelphia Flyers (ML) @ New Jersey Devils (1 Unit)

Will hopefully tally-up another profitable night tonight Lets cash this in!

Enjoy!

Goood Afternoon Adam!
Good Morning JM!!

I have a big play for this weekend's NFL playoffs.. (bought 1/2 a point)

New Orleans Saints -9.5 Vs Seattle Seahawks (5 Units)

The defending Super Bowl Champions, New Orleans, finished the regular season with an 11-5 record SU which was only good enough for second place in the NFC South Division as the Atlanta Falcons took top spot going 13-3 SU. With the way things played out in the weakest division in the NFL (NFC West) the Saints have been listed as double-digit favourites Vs a Seahawks team that managed to top their division and make the Wild-Card game with a 7-9 SU record.

New Orleans played Seattle on November 21st installed as 11-point favourites and ran out comfortable winners with a 34-19 scoreline. Seattle earned their spot in the Wild-Card game by defeating the St.Louis Rams 16-6 last sunday. However, the Seahawks hold a lousy 1-10 ATS record following a double digit victory.

Before defeating St. Louis at home last weekend, Seattle had lost 3 consecutive and 5 of their previous 6 games. They finished the regular season ranked 27th in the league in total defense and 28th in total offense.

New Orleans checks in for this weekends matchup following two of their worst offensive efforts of the season scoring just 17 points on the road Vs Atlanta and 13 points at home Vs Tampa Bay last week. However it is also worth noting that the Saints are 2-0 SU and ATS this season after scoring 20 or fewer points in 2 consecutive games.

Additionally, with Seattle going 7-9 SU during the regular season, it's worth pointing out that all 9 of their losses came by a minimum 15 point margin and if this trend continues to hold true for the Wild-Card game this Sunday, the Seahawks would have to win the game outright to prevent the Saints from covering the spread.

The history of teams entering the post-season with a losing record doesn't favour Seattle. In 1982, the Los Angeles Raiders defeated the Cleveland Browns 27-10 and the Washington Redskins recorded a 31-7 victory over the Detroit Lions in their opening round games.

The New Orleans coach Sean Payton stressed the importance of remaining focussed and avoiding complacency in a news conference earlier this week. He indicated that no team, regardless of the circumstances should be overlooked, especially in the playoffs.
"I think more than anything else, it's about playing your best football at the right time, and that time is right now". [Payton]

Look for the defending Super Bowl Champion Saints to take control of this one early and come away with a comfortable double-digit victory.

Best of luck all! Lets cash this in!

I have the seahawks +11

[adam3248]

Texas A&M vs LSU *game total UNDER 49* (NCAAF)

In this game, we see two teams with a lot of media surrounding them. After much anticipation, LSU RB Steven Ridley has been cleared to play. The Tiger offense is mediocre, ranking 91st. Now a lot can be said for the Tigers. They play against some of the best teams in college football. Their only losses this year have come to Auburn and Arkansas, both top teams.

LSU posts just 28.8 PPG. Despite scoring almost 29 PPG, the offense only earned 7 TD passes but has 10 INTs. QB Jordan Jefferson has 4 TDs with 9 INTs but is the schools 2nd leading rusher with 383 YR and 6 TDs. Although the Tigers stop unit has yielded 67 combined points in their L2 outings, overall the LSU “D” is ranked 8th in the nation allowing a mere 301 YPG and holding foes to a laughable 17.8 PPG.

Their defense houses Sheppard, Nerus, and Peterson. These are three players with NFL potential. LSU’s offense is stagnant. They face an A&M “D” that has allowed just 3.3 YPC and ranks 23rd in pass efficiency. Michael Hodges and Von Miller are the workhorses behind the stop unit that hasn’t allowed more than 30 points in their L8 games. The Aggies won and covered their L6 games.

The fact is that LSU isn’t a scoring machine that doesn’t light up the scoreboard and A&M only posted 33 points combined in their L2. Also, A&M’s offense will look like they have a stutter vs. the very smart Tigers “D” that beat ‘Bama, Florida, Tennessee, and Mississippi State. The UNDER is 4-0 in the Aggies L4 vs. the SEC, 4-1 in the Aggies L5 Bowl games, 5—1 ATS in the Tigers L6 games vs. teams with a winning record, and 8-3 ATS in the Tigers L11 overall.

best of luck all!
