Wow I cannot believe that Syracuse .vs. NC State outcome. I was leaning NC State because I knewTyler Lewis is a great prototypical point guard from Oak Hill for NC State so that's good if you're trying to pick a part a tough zone. Also I think NC States coach has proven over the past few tourneys that he is legit and knows how to win games against top tier competition. So anyway all this making me like NC State and then I look at the line and its 14.5!?!? And that seemed farrrr too many points for Syracuse to be giving up so I skipped it thinking Vegas knew something we didn't. And then of course SYracuse doesn't come close to covering and barely wins by 1 haha. Did anyone watch the game think they know what happened in this game.....or do you think I am over thinking this and the line was correct and Syracuse just didn't play up to form.

Wow wild game last night in that UNC .vs. Florida State game. Line did seem a little odd especially with North Carolina coming off that strong win on CBS against #25 Pitt. Happy we weren't involved in that one.
Anyway just wanted to give an update. Sorry there haven't been any plays lately since it was the All Star break for the NBA. I expect NBA picks to be coming up in the next 2 or 3 days max and NCAAB picks as early as tomorrow. NO picks today though. BOL

I really like Texas Tech +7.5 tonight but I don't love it so it won't be a official play.

Reason I love the Magic +6 tonight is that I think the Cavs are feeling pretty good about themselves and also have Kyrie Irving coming off his All Star MVP and now they are coming home. I think this will be a big let down spot for the Cavs who are going to be a little distracted as well as not motivated to play the Magic. BOL either way you play, but I am on Magic +6!

Magic +6 LOSS -1.1 unit
Frusturating that they made the comeback and were only down 4 going into the 4th only to lose by 8. On to the next today though.

Leaning towards taking Rutgers tonight for at least 1 unit. I am really liking it right now and would possibly even put 2 units on it, but I have seen Rutgers gets smoked so many times this season and I really hate that feeling of a bet going up in flames in the first half of play. I am going to research it all day today and get back to everyone, but its 99% sure I will be playing at least 1 unit on RU +9

Official NCAAB Play
Rutgers 1st Half +4.5 for 2 units
LOVE this play for multiple reasons. First, Rutgers tends to foul a lot especially Wally Judge. Memphis is not a great free throw shooting team so I could see Rutgers fouling and Memphis missing free throws which will keep the score closer than it should be. Also, the RAC is a great home court and going against a ranked team will bring out a decent crowd even though RU is struggling this season. Memphis isn't that impressive on the road this season either and hasn't played very many road games in general. We gotta think RU will try to do something differently on defense after getting smoked by 30 in the first meeting. I am banking on this affecting Memphis in the 1st half. Thing is after halftime they could make the adjustment and I don't want Rutgers to be close at halftime and then blown out at the end...hence the 1st Half play. BOL to everyone

Remember Rutgers just lost by 50 to Louisville on ESPN2 a couple of daysa go in a totally embarrassing showing for all the betting public to see. I bet the bnooks had to inflate the line at least 1 point becaused of this alone so that's another small positive for Rutgers.
Hence Rutgers is the play....specifically 1st Half though because I notified they've looked out of shape this season and don't want to risssk

And Rutgers dissapoints yet again. Their offense makes zero sense. There is no screens and no back door cuts. And they try to run the offense through their big men when Wally Judge my the worst person on the team offensively. They should be running pick and rolls with Mack and Seagears and Jack all day, but they don't and they end up being down at the half by 7.
I will update the record tonight.

Wow very upset about how that Rutgers game went. I had the read on the game right that Rutgers was the play, but I got cute knowing Rutgers usually gets winded in the 2nd half so I took them in the 1st half rather than for the game against Memphis. And of course Rutgers doesn't cover in the 1st half, but they cover for the game only losing by 5 or 6 when they were +8. Anyway that is what I get for changing my betting mid season and making my first (and only) 1st half play of the season.
Anyway enough whining and feeling sorry for myself. Just hate to lose a big 2 unit play when I was able to spot a good underdog play and screwed myself and my followers by trying to be cute.
SORRY UNIT CORRECTION for the Rutgers 1st half play above. I did not lose 1.1 units I lost 2.2 units.
So the correct result was
Rutgers 1st half +4.5 LOSS -2.2 units
My overall record and units are correct. I was +2.74 units and lost 1.1 units on the Magic +6 and lost 2.2 units on Rutgers 1st half +4.5 So I am -.56 units overall.

Hey guys sorry I know I have been away for a little while, but it is something I do during a season when I go into the red. Most people freak out when they see they are down units and start firing away and losing more and more money so I have learned to do the opposite. I just take time to focus on work and working out and family and just getting my mind and body right.
Anyways no pick for tonight as of now I will let you know if things change and GET READY because I am back and absolutely ready to go!
