    Best Bets 3/8

    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.

    Had some earlier leans, but they're all off the table.

    2H's only for me. No use putting money on a team that's not going to play, and if they didn't play in 1H, at least they will in 2H most of the time.

    I'm on Louisville plus 5 against Pitt. Question is can Pitino convince his team they can win this tournament? I think 3 wins will get them in, so start it tonight. West Virginia, which has been shaky of late, awaits the winner, so Louisville has to believe if they can win this one, they got a shot to get to the semifinals. It's a stretch, but worth a flyer.

    I still have to update and calculate, but these teams could have a strong 2H if challenged at the half.

    Already have doubts about DET. Billups said last week that they're 'really, really tired'. That is the perfect comment to start fading them.

    I like the Celtics the most because there home record is good and the 76ers are always given an inflated line. Plus the Celtics have won some pretty big away games as of late.

    Good points but I really can't see Pitt have another crappy game at home. They are still a strong team, if a bit humbled. Not sure Louisville will stay within 8 (although I'm rooting for them).

    Wouldn't it be better if people edit their original post so not such a long thread to scroll???

    When it comes to grading it's better that people do not edit their post. I know what you mean however.

    The lines on the following have moved to the point where I consider them playable, so...

    1* Northern Arizona pk
    1* Central Florida -4

    Beautiful setup game in the NBA, the way the Hornets have been playing. Now they return home for the first sporting event in New Orleans since Hurricane Katrina.

    1* Hornets -1
