    My Picks

    Here is my projections for the Season. My first time really looking at the NBA a lot this year. I am more of a NCAAB guy so take what I put out here for what it's worth. I can guarantee you there are many more people on here doing threads that are more established for the NBA, but we all have to start somewhere. I used to make plays that I like and then I would just tail LB, but I always tried to see why he would back teams in certain spots etc.. SO hopefully I can use that to help me. GL everyone

    For tomorrow I really liked the Rockets and I saw LB on em as well so I already made a play on em for 1x.

    Rockets +7.5 1x

    I am also leaning the Trail Blazers and Celtics but haven't made a play on either yet.

    you could be right, but last year they were the fourth team in that division. I think if the Blazers can stay somewhat healthy this year they take the division and I don't see the Jazz losing Boozer to be that big of an issue to them. The Thunder are a great team, but I think more teams are going to be up and motivated to play them this year because of all the hype that they are getting. Just my opinion. Also, both Durant and Westbrook could slow down a bit at the end of the year and get more rest for the playoffs because they played for Team USA in the offseason.

    I'm loving this but I'm scared of Heat comeback. Let's hope Celts can hold on.

    Blazers up 4 at half, but not looking to good. Would have thought they would be up more at half, them covering the 7 looks slim. Moving on to tomorrow. Liking my Bucks at first glance.

    okay, looked at the card for tomorrow and really liking the pacers getting 9 @ san antonio. Pacers will have no problem putting up points this year and I think Collison will do good enough running the show tonight. Spurs are an old team, and although I really like them this year, I can see them getting out to a slow start like last year. It'll be tough for them to keep up a pace to be able to outscore these Pacers by 10 points. Watch out for Rookie Paul George from Fresno St. Guy can play!

    Also as crazy as it sounds, kind of leaning to Minny here. I think Kings are overrated and this will be one of the very small amount of games Minny will have a chance at winning this here. They'll want this one bad and give it there all on the home opener.

    Paul George
    i'm on Pacers +9 as well... also thinking about taking the over... Pacers can score but can't rebound and play defense..


    Edit: i just checked the over and its gone from 200.5 to 204.. not too sure about it anymore, should have put in my play yesterday...

    They started to improve the last couple weeks of last season if I remember correctly, but yah I agree. To much value was lost in that last steam up to 203.5/204. It going up makes our side play look that much stronger though.

    Am kind of leaning to the Cavs, but think I am just going to pass. Not worth it, just is so low and Boston coming off last nights big win. Pinny did open it at -1.It will be a big motivational game for them to show all the haters that they have guys that can play. But I just don't know if I can trust them to get it done or not. The over might be a stronger play because the Celtics won't bring the same amount of energy tonight.

    Really kind of liking the Raptors in a PK for a 6:00 game. If I play it I will prolly only take it for .5x

    The over for the Cav/Celtic is probably a safe bet. Unless as you stated boston takes a nap.

    Raptors PK .5x

    The Raptors are a bad team, but I just dont like the Knicks yet. It is going to take them awhile to work out some kinks and I'm not sold on Amare without Nash yet.

    Want to back the Cavs here, but I think I am just going to play it smart and pass. I think Cavs cover and it goes over though.
