I got 6/8 with head to head win projection yesterday:
- Golden State at Indiana 104 113
- New York at Orlando 94 108
- Dallas at Philadelphia 104 95
- New Orleans at Toronto 97 106
- Detroit at Milwaukee 91 96
- LA Lakers at Minnesota 103 96
- San Antonio at Memphis 101 94 X
- Houston at Portland 94 102 X
A disappointed result for Portland which had been consistent in the past for its toughness at home & grind out opponents scoring average to 89 points or less. By inserting 2 starters in Camby and Wallace could have something to do with it or could be a continue bad chemistry between Andre Miller & B. Roy. It had been known that Portland had tried to move Miller earlier on to keep Roy happy. Also, both LaMarcus Aldridge and Wesley Matthews had performed somewhat just average output efforts. Fernandez got 0 mins in the last game.
In any-case, their 2 losses at home had put 2 eggs in my face for endorsed favorably these 2 games.
on to tomorrow, we have 10 games:
- Chicago at Atlanta 93 87
- San Antonio at Cleveland 110 100
- Golden State at Washington 105 100
- Phoenix at Boston 101 98
- Minnesota at Detroit 99 103
- New Orleans at New York 93 105
- Indiana at Oklahoma City 98 107
- Charlotte at Denver 94 110
- Portland at Sacramento 96 102
- Houston at LA Clippers 99 92
_________________________________
Chicago at Atlanta 93 87
Without Josh Smith in the middle, the Bulls physical front-line will have a field day even though 110% efforts from Zaza Gabor, Al Horford and Marvin Williams won't do it.
These 2 teams will have almost identical defensive style of play, will play a lot half court setup, draw fouls in the lane. Expect a few bounds off shots & low %.
Chicago:
CHI are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall.
Under is 15-6 in CHI last 21 vs. NBA Southeast.
Atlanta:
Under is 7-1 in ATL last 8 overall.
Under is 11-3 in ATL last 14 vs. NBA Central.
ATL are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 home games.
Chicago should win by 8 /under 187
Result: Bulls 80 ATL 83 - The Bulls couldn't protect 17 points lead in the 1st. they lost the un lose able. The under total is correct.
San Antonio at Cleveland 110 100
Let's take it on Cleveland & they won't put up much of resistance, even they wanted too. Cleveland will unveil BD and Samardo Samuels a Bob Marley of Basketball.
Golden State at Washington 108 102
The Warriors should end a 4 games losing streak here as David Lee will crash the board & impose some D.
Will have a few miss shots by either teams.
Key numbers:

Under is 7-2 in GS last 9 vs. NBA Southeast.
GS are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 vs. NBA Southeast.

Result: GSW 106 Was 102 - only 2 points off the Estimate
Phoenix at Boston 101 98
Orlando's ex-convicts and Steve Nash will give Boston a special treat. The Suns have learned from a 2 near missed games at NJersey, & the Pacers will look to close the game out properly. Boston too will have a plan on their own - revenge & just play hard with whom ever they come, even the Greenbay Packers.
Key numbers:
Phoenix:
PHO are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 vs. NBA Atlantic.
Over is 41-19 in PHO last 60 Wed. games.
