    NBA pick for 26 Feb

    here is the raw projection for tomorrow, I added 2 NHL games as well.

    Utah at Detroit 103 90 line 13 Total: 193 Result: Utah 116 at Detroit 120 LOSS
    Democracy finally arrived from middle east, Detroits demand Col Gaddafi be gone too. They played a 6 men rotation at Phi and yet managed to score 94 points, I still have no idea how they did it, a feat in itself. Philly totally dominated the Pistons in the glass, score in the paint, you named it, except got rape on the floor. But returning home the next day facing the Jazz could be all the same. The Jazz upset the Pacers and get it done from inside: Millsap & Jefferson combined 53 points while held the Pacers to 84 points on a 34.8% shooting. The only down size was the Jazz air balls a 0-6 of 3's. So these guys know how to play, one for coach Sloan, I hear he is coming out of a short retirement, now that Dw is gone to the NETs?.

    Dallas at Washington 106 100 6 206 Result Dallas 105 at Washington 99 Win
    I concur with Mark Cuban, no changes need for now. But i think they probably exit the first round like last year again by the Spurs, maybe.

    Sac at Memphis 93 105 -12 198 Result Sac 92 at Memphis 120 Win
    One time pretender will get done by Z-Bo with returning home Battier. Grizz now got two solid defensive stoppers. Not bad for a non contender team.

    New Jersey at Hou 94 104 -10 198 Result New Jersey 108 at Hou 123
    Good luck to Rick Adelman, a second coming Yinka Dare is at hand. New Jersey fans can sight a relief and stop holding your breath here.

    Chicago at Milwaukee 97 93 4 190 Result Chicago 83 at Milwaukee 75
    Boston at LA Clippers 100 91 9 191 Result Boston 99 at LA Clippers 92
    These last two games I am still thinking about it still, Chicago came off a nice moral victory at home against Miami and I hope they wont dropped it at the Bucks liked last time on the road at Canada.

    No guarantee here that Boston can win against just returned home Clippers as they play well at home and it could starting from this game onward. Judging from the Boston's last game at the Denvers & depend on how its all comes together with the new roster while on the road, so may as well be work in progress. We'll see how it goes.

    NHL section - apologize for in the wrong post though

    Colorado at Los Angeles
    Continuing with a their winning way the Kings is 18-9-1at home, (7-3) in the last 10, & 9 of these played away from home, their last two games are solid against a sound defensive teams
    2/24/11 MIN W 4-2
    2/23/11 @ ANA W 3-2
    Currently sitting 5th in the west with 4 games leading over 7 teams in the bottom 8. With 16 remaining games to play thing can change & they will look to take care of business at home against a lowly, bottom ranked Avalanche (away 12-13-3) and 1-9 in the last 10. Colorado’s trade last week will not be quick enough to aid them in this game.

    The 2 teams last met with results:
    12/21/10 COL 0 - LA 5
    10/23/10 COL 4 - LA 6

    Colorado:
    Over is 12-5 in COL last 17 Sat. games.

    Los Angeles:
    LA are 20-8 in their last 28 Sat. games.
    LA are 10-4 in their last 14 overall.
    Under is 12-5 in LA last 17 overall.

    Prediction:
    Colorado 1 Los Angeles 5

    Result: Colorado 3 Los Angeles 4 WIN

    Washington Capitals at New York Islanders
    The rangers came to town shredded Capitals’s Swiss cheese D with a Win 6-0. This time they’re facing another New Yorkers that can scores all you can eat at an average 4 goals per game in the their last 7 at home or at 3 per game even in a loss game.

    Washington won twice when the 2 teams last met with results:
    1/20/11 NYI 1 - WAS 2
    10/13/10 WAS 2 - NYI 1
    But back then Islanders’ record was merely 14-24-7, loss almost every single game to every man and his dog in the league. It’s a different story the last 10 where they are 6-4 even won 4 in a row in one stretch, also won 2 at home against record team.

    2/21/11 FLA W 5-1
    2/19/11 LA W 3-0 1.5
    2/17/11 BOS L 3-6 1.5
    2/15/11 @ OTT W 4-3 (SO)
    2/13/11 @ BUF W 7-6 (OT)
    2/11/11 PIT W 9-3
    2/10/11 @ MON W 4-3 (SO)

    Interesting to note in Capitals’s last 11, they were only over 3 times

    2/21/11 @ PIT W 1-0
    2/20/11 @ BUF W 2-1
    2/17/11 @ SJ L 2-3
    2/16/11 @ ANA W 7-6
    2/14/11 @ PHO L 2-3
    2/12/2011 LA L 1-4
    2/08/2011 SJ L 0-2
    2/06/2011 PIT W 3-0
    2/04/2011 @ TB W 5-2
    2/01/2011 MON L 2-3 (SO)

    Capitals 3 Islanders 2

    Result: Capitals 3 Islanders 2 WIN

    play Utah -4.5 Loss
    Chicago -3.5/over 182 why?, consider line history below in bold LOSS the over 182 part

    2/24/11 MIA 93-89 (W) 3/192 **
    2/23/11 @TOR 113-118 (L) -8.5/199.5 LO
    2/17/11 SA 109-99 (W) -2/186.5 WO
    2/15/11 CHAR 106-94 (W) -9.5/183.5 WO
    2/12/11 @NO 97-88 (W) -3/182 WO 6.0
    2/9/11 @UTA 91-86 (W) 1/193.5 ** 6.0
    2/7/11 @POR 103-109 (L) -2.5/181.5 LO -8.5
    2/5/11 @GS 90-101 (L) -3.5/205.5 LU -14.5
    2/2/11 @LAC 106-88 (W) -2.5/193.5 WO 15.5
    1/29/11 IND 110-89 (W) -7/193 WO 14.0

    All the games Chicago had played in February were no less than 182 total points (included at NO the league lowest points against), except once @UTA less than 182.

    The Bucks notoriously force a slow pace low scoring game at home, but is a more offensive output of late due returned players such as Jennings, Corey Maggette, Carlos Delfino, John Salmons & even Michael Redd. These guys will shoot a few 3's.

    NHL play
    *LA King result: Col 3 Kings 4 - WIN
    *Detroit Red Wings
    result: Sabres 2 Detroit 3 - WIN
    *Flyers result: Ott 4 Flyers 1 LOSS
