    hey bud, take a look at rockets -5.5 against the decimated spurs. at first glance, i think that's the easiest one on the board right now.

    goodluck! turn it around and get it rolling.

      Thanks Mundane.
      On paper, Rockets RL actually looks like the best available pick, but such picks aren't working for me right now. I'm presently scared of outcomes that look too obvious. You may play the Rockets and somehow, one of their key players manages to get injured during the game and they use that as an excuse to lose.

      The Hornets can't be trusted. You don't know what the Celtics are up to. Knicks is dicey. Lakers have the ability to cover the spread but they may not. Jazz may be without a point guard.

      So I think Kings at home may beat an "unguarded" Jazz team.
      The Pistons don't seem to play much D on the road anymore so the Over in the Pistons/Lakers game looks good.

        just a note on jazz pg.

        Deron Williams is listed as a game-time decision for Friday's game against Charlotte.
        He is likely to play and played on Wednesday despite the same "game-time decision" listing. Go ahead and use him in your lineup but check back in with us tomorrow to see if any bad news surfaces.

            who do you like in todays matchups?

            I like Lakers OVER 193 if it drops to that again, Bucks+4.5, Portland +7, Chartlotte+6 and Heat -6.5

            Deciding which to add, which to play, and hopefully cash some tonight!

            Goodluck in your picks.

                  MoneySportsGuy,

                  Looks like today is one day to make money. I like ALL your picks I'm defintely playing:

                  Pistons/Lakers Over 195

                  These look good to me:

                  Portland +3.5 1H
                  Charlotte ML
                  Kings ML
                  Rockets/Spurs Over 173
                  Wizards/Heat Over 196.5

                                              Sacramento +3 1H (-110)
                                              Cleveland/New Jersey 1H Over 100½ (-110)
                                              Boston -385
                                              I'm actually 24-22 +5.95 since 10/27 (6-3 in the L9).
                                              I failed to add yesterday's record to the total.

                                                  If you join me in playing them, we'll cash them. I could do with some moral support.

                                                                      i am not sure about the lakers game though, over seems too easy, -4.5 may be better
                                                                      Unfortunately, I didn't play the 1Q Under.
                                                                      Both Lakers -4.5 and Over should cash. I went for the safer pick anyways, Lakers ML. My problem with the Lakers is whenever the find it easy to win a game, they don't bother about covering the spread. They may open up a big lead at some point in the game and then "relax" and let the opponents creep back into the spread. The margin by which the Lakers will win will be decided in the last 20 seconds of the game through fouling and other tricks known to them.
