    Best Bets 2/26

    I won't be around, so I am starting the thread early.

    Who do you guys like for today?

    I will track everybodies plays, so please make sure you post a line.

    Also, I don't mind if you post parlays, teasers, or round robins, but these plays will not be reflected in the standings.

    NBA (OVERNIGHT)
    2* MEM E (-119)
    (I have MIN as 29th in L over last 10 -- got to play it out)

    1* ORL +4 (+107) (earlybird pick - ORL has no excuses)
    1* IND +6 (-106) ditto

    (NBA THIS AM)
    2* u185@CLE (-102)
    (all DET-CLE games in LBJ era: 181, 177, 167, 150, 168, 172, 167, 181, 180. Seems ABC games with long TV timeouts help defensive energy and disrupt offensive rhythm)

    Passing on:
    NOK, o@MIN, BOS (stepping off Celts for first time in a long time)

    NCAAB -
    1. Take picks of strong NCCAB cappers on this board.
    2. Apply what judges call a deferential standard of review.
    3. Play the ones I like --0.5 to 1 unit.
    4. Enjoy.

    OLY-
    Fins +105 for fun

    Peace and GL to all --

    GL bro . . .

    Hope you're also looking at what these NCAAB cats are doing. I think they're right . . . solid capping pays off more easily in that game.
