    RESULTS FROM 4/04

    TORONTO & NEW YORK UNDER 221 WIN



    Short and sweet today fellas. Got 2 feet of fresh powder and I gotta hit the hill. I saw this yesterday while capping today's games and laughed hysterically. Are they really going to put the over/under at 220 for the New York and Toronto game? The best thing about this is that its what they call a home to home back to back. This means 2 teams play each other in back to back games each on their home court with no rest in between games. In these games the teams intensity dies down because they played them the day before-fatigue is big in this situation usually favoring the home team. If anything changed statistically it would be my simulated spreadsheet totals. My estimated totals between these 2 actually went down to 206.3. I broke down the teams averages on the year compared to yesterdays box score in these categories: field goal percentage, average field goals/attempts, free throws/attempts, 3 pts/attempts, average time of possession, etc... Well both teams may have shot atleast 5% lower than their season average, but this average doesn't compare to how they are doing over their past 10 games. I said it before and I will say it again, the lines are still inflated from the Knicks numbers earlier in the season. Even if these teams happen to shoot at their average percentage, that will only give them 8-11 more points more than yesterday's 197 total.

    Other plays I like today are: San Antonio & Cleveland over 90.5 for the 1st half, Toronto -5 over New York, Golden State & Sacramento over 123 1st half, UConn -5 over Stanford 1st half (women), LA Lakers -16 over LA Clippers. My strongest play of those would be Golden State and Sacramento over 123 for the 1st half. The Lakers picks is very strong as well because the Clippers are back to back road to road after a 16 point loss against the Nuggets last night. Guys, my advice is stick to my one strong play. If you really want more action, play your other games very very small. I promise you that you will be on top in the long run.





    TODAY'S PICK:

    NEW YORK & TORONTO UNDER 220 (the line is moving very fast but jump on until 216 and no more)

      NEW YORK & TORONTO UNDER 220 WIN




      This is it fellas...This is where legends are made! I could have been a bitch and turned away from this game but I am going to man up and accept the challenge. I am 89-48 (64.9%) for my NCAA basketball games this year and really looking for that 65% mark. Long story short but if I hit that 65% I will get a pretty large incentives bonus from some of my peeps. I was so close to taking my 5 game win streak and shifting to baseball but feel that would be a cop out. Could have been a sucker and taken Sebathia and the Yanks at -1 1/2 runs and cashed in for the day-NO THANKS.

      I have read every other expert onion out there and changed my mind 20 different times. I have heard about a million valid arguments on why each team will cover and still no decision. All I have to say is good luck with that one because I will pass on the spread. Today I am going to pick the under 154.5 in this game. If you ask me for a very convincing write up on why I see this game going under, I couldn't give you one. I'll be honest and say this is strictly a gut feeling. I see the game starting off at a very fast tempo, then settling down quite a bit. UNC will not hit 11 3-pointers (season avg 7) like they did against Villanova. Yeah UNC is 2nd in the league at 85.7 points scored, but Michigan State can play a little defense. They held UConn to 1-12 at mid range, 2-6 3-pt range, and 8-32 on all jump shots. I do realize that UConn had an off night but UNC's numbers will not be astronomical either. The one aspect of the game I am worried about is UNC getting to the free throw line. We all know the clock stops on free throws and Michigan State sent UConn to the charity stripe 33 times last game, which UConn converted to 21 points (63%). My point I am trying to make is that if UNC goes to the free throw line 33 times and hits 11 3-pointers then the game will go over. However I do not see that happening so lets put the money in the bank! My predicted total will be 147 points. A small prop bet I like is over 11.5 total 3-pointers made (-115) at 5Dimes. I then realized that this would be contradicting myself because I am hoping for less points. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

        No explanation needed for today's pick. It's UConn women's baskeball and there is nobody that can stop them. This is easy money here and if you pass on this you are a fool.

                    I am going with 2 games today and feel very confident with both. I would say the Dallas play is a little bit stronger than the Portland.

                                                    Mather your still holding on, although if you kept going you would eventually end up 50%, it is just the law of percentages.
