Cleveland 12-51 (4-27 V)@Milwaukee 24-38 (15-16 H)


Another day, another beat for Cleveland, hope they’re getting used to it by now, cause coming to Milwaukee and facing the league’s top 5 defensive team while struggling offensively, it’s gonna be one long game and counterproductive day for the Cavaliers.

Local folks will look to enjoy a Bud-light or two while watching Andrew Bogut prepares Daniel Gibson a new hair style. We should expect to see a low scoring game in this one.

Milwaukee:
Under is 7-2 in MIL last 9 Wed. games.
Under is 23-7 in MIL last 30 home games.
Under is 20-7 in MIL last 27 overall.

Head to Head:
Under is 9-4 in the last 13 meetings in Milwaukee.
Road team is 12-5 ATS in the last 17 meetings.

Play under 186.5 ATS (11-7) - NBA (7-3) NHL(4-4)

BD will not joint Cleveland in this game, is on leave absent.

Golden State 28-35 (9-22 V)@New Jersey 19-43 (15-16 H)

Only a short flight from Key Areana to NJ is where the Warriors headed and ready to rob NJ minus D.Will blind. The Nets could be without a few key forward players; this would make them thinner, smaller. GSW back-courts will once again to take over this game and look for David Lee to have double-double effort, riding from Cleveland’s win and will close out another win against another eastern team with a poor record and heading home after a 7 games round trip.

The Nets may have to use Lopez with heavy mins, expect a decent effort by their 2 guards & Kris Humphries to keep them in the game

Good luck today man. Going to be tailing you woo. Hoping for a nice sweep hahahah

[ParlayJunkie]

I enjoy reading your write ups. I was already on Dallas big and also that Cleveland Under. Good sign. I cashed on the Warriors yesterday so I'm gonna take it easy and pass on them today.

[kobstopa]

Oklahoma City (39-23) at Philadelphia (33-30)

Philly will look to take another step, a win that about protect their home court for a first round conference match up for any opponents or else all those winning games are for nothing. They have worked too hard to get where they are now, a familiar position that they once had a few years back before Eddie Jordan came along. They have a good coach who will prepare them well for this situation.

Play Phil to win ATS (12-11) - NBA (7-6) NHL(5-5)

Tailed you on the under in the hockey pick appreciate it.

[kobstopa]

Tailed you on the under in the hockey pick appreciate it.

oh, good.
what a bad day. I knew the Bucks would have a field day but didn't pick the line, instead use under. Knew Lac will be strong coming to Bos & didn't use that either.

pure unlucky, to see Chicago Hawks loss & Dallas to NO.

always, next day.

________________________________________ ___________________________________

LA Lakers at Miami

Back in mid Jan, the Beatles loss 4 in a row there was a talked of throw the coach in front of a bus. Now they are free fall 5 in the row & the local litigate Chris Bosh as the team Doom's day machine, but interesting to see what is next ? CSI Miami could have a field day with missing persons for all we know, cause losing nos. six is almost certain, whether they like it or not.

Kob Mumba and LA Lakers is in town, Fidel Castro love an underdog and he like the Lakers in this one. Riding an 8 games winning streak, their record speaks for itself how they play and approach the game as The Defending Champ should. It's not as bad as it look for Miami's court side seat ticket holders, the most excitement for them on the day would be the the Lakers cheerleaders.

Play Lakers -2.5 ATS (12-12) - NBA (7-7) NHL(5-5)


Denver at Phoenix
Two of the team with high explosive scoring, upper tempo and free layup machines is at it. The game could go either way, but likely the suns would be the victor at home, because they are playing terrific basketball and riding on a good momentum to secure a playoff spot in the west. But for the intend purposes its should be a high scoring game.

Denver:
DEN are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall.
Over is 6-2 in DEN last 8 vs. Western Conference.
Over is 9-4 in DEN last 13 road games.

Phoenix:
Over is 6-2 in PHO last 8 vs. NBA Northwest.
PHO are 7-17 ATS in their last 24 Thu. games.

Head to Head:
DEN are 1-8 ATS in the last 9 meetings in Phoenix.
Home team is 18-7-1 ATS in the last 26 meetings.

[kobstopa]

LA Clippers at New Jersey
The Nets is again without D. Will. But as expected their 2 guards had step up and defeated GSW in the last game, particularly Anthony Morrow, much will be the same and Lopez will do his bit in the middle with a double-double.

The Clippers have won a season-high four straight included 2 on the road. The last one won against Boston. Part of their success was the available balance weapons in back court Mo Williams/Foyle , and in the middle Kaman/Jordan which will be an excellent match up to contain Lopez. A good match up also is in Blake Griffin vs Kris Humphries at the power forward spot.

Portland at Charlotte
The Cats may have cap Jack back in this game, if not their ship is going down, this team is struggling with its offense even at home, there's only so much Boris Diaw & 2 points guards guys can do to keep them in the game. They will be physically out match when Portland is in town with one angry Wallace and Gromit.

DETROIT PISTONS (23-43) at DENVER NUGGETS (38-27)
Denver the poor-man Dream Team II & currently the highest scoring team in the league is also played terrific defense to go with 8 players can average a double digits score since late February. In their last game they gave the suns a Rodney King beating style of basketball. All you can eat free layup every 10 sec.

The next victim, coming to the Rockie is a lottery pistons, a team at bottom pile of the east & is not quiet out of the playoff picture yet but a slim chance. Rip Hamilton is finally allowed back in the rotation would certainly a help they need coming to this game.

Detroit's Last 10 (3-7) with a Road Record 7-26. I have no idea how this team gonna handle Denvers with such a lack of depth in their roster; it will be left, right and centre as they will be badly mismatch at points, power forward and at the middle, unless McGrady turns into God-mode and score 70 points all by himself or pretty much all over by the 3rd quarter.

Sack Joe Dumar and consider hiring Homer Simpson for the job.

Play Denver by 11 ATS (20-20) - NBA (11-12) NHL(9-8)


Clippers at Wizards
I suppose I had given the Nets' 2nd unit less credit, but also had they played just half the effort of these last 2 games throughout the season they would have sitting comfortably 6 or 7th in the east. The Clip is now on to the Capitals and should take an easy win.

Milwaukee at Boston
A rare loss twice to inferior teams back to back is not a concern for Boston, as they got x - Clinched Playoff Berth in the east already. From here on staying healthy & get your starters a fresh leg ready for first round is a sound plan. Their next guest is Milwaukee Bud-light, a team fighting for their post season and will do anything to get a win, even it would mean that their starters go clean the floor of Boston garden or lick off Shaq's runner. the Bucks will give it all they got in this one, timing couldn't be better as their offense is vastly improved from 91.7 points per game with shoots 42.7 percent to 102.3 points and shot 50.4 percent while tying its longest winning streak of the season.

It's not easy to win in boston, but the bucks will keep it close to the line.
