    Few good upset spots tonight...
    Kings +255

    Evans and Thornton are doubtful. But the Raptors are bad.

    Bulls +270

    Noah is probable, but LeBron has a bum knee. Should be playing but that knee will be hurting.

    Lakers +165

    Reality check time for the Clippers. Experience wins this one.

    I do like the picks as far as possible outright wins but in reality Tor not that bad. Won 8 of last 9 & three in a row. Solid @ home too (8-5 for a team that's 12-20). Won 5 in row @ home

      Kings 3-17 on the road last 20.

      Lakers probably the most likely one to hit.

        Can you please explain how the Raptors are bad in relevant terms?

        They're fantastic at home, and the Kings are BRUTAL on the road.

        8-5 SU at home and 9-4 ATS at home.

        Since the Raptors started playing without Bargnani and Fields they have been very consistent. The Kings are 1-4 SU in Toronto over the last 5 trips and they're coming up against a team that is turning it around.

        play here is Raps -6.5

          Not making a case for Sac but Craptors 8-2 run is almost all against bottom feeder teams. Portland away from home is soft and Houston is the only team with merit they beat. Houston gives up a average of 105 points on the road so if you contain them you stand a chance to beat them on the road.

          I like them baby bulls.

              I agree on that Gates. The only way that doesn't win is if Tennessee bores them to absolute death. Memphis can score the ball well. If they can play through the slow tempo of Tennessee and make some buckets they can win easily. One key point to look at though is that this is Memphis' first "official" road game. Tennessee is 6-0 at home but it's all against JoeJohn's. The only team that had any kind of merit is Xavier(which they only won by 4), the same Xavier team that just went to Wake Forest and lost as well. I agree Memphis ML is the play.

                Before their nice little streak they were 4-18. Do you consider Charlotte a bad team? Because they started off the season 7-5 a nice little run as well, but then lost 18 games in a row. Every team is capable of a streak. Basketball teams are like shit. Even if it's floating around the bowl, eventually it will sink back down to the rest of the turds.

                    Understandable, but I really don't see Houston winning that game.

                      All 3 teams stand a chance at winning, but I wouldn't back the Kings on the ML.


                      Good luck though!!

                        When they went 4-18, they had one of the toughest schedules in the entire nba. now the schedule has eased up and they are winning. I am not saying I would take them at -7. But they are pretty good at home and they r especially good on fridays. Also they r looking for revenge for the earlier season loss. They got it against portland and now looking for it against the kings tonight. 7 is a lot, but i can see raptors covering that number.

                          Ya a 4-18 streak accompanied by dead weight Bargnani and Fields, and a tough schedule. They've proven to play well at home all season though not just the last 9 games. Of their 4 home games they haven't covered, they missed the cover by .5, .5 (ml win), 4, and only one huge miss of 13. Of those four, they only lost once when favoured.

                            I like the lakers, but i doubt the bulls are gonna upset miami. Maybe take the spread but definitely not upset them. My upset game imo is gonna be portland over memphis.

                                          +4.25x units bet no matter what the Lakers do,

                                          most degenerates would chop a digit off for that kind of fix....................
