    Keep Fading Those LA Clippers!

    Boyz,

    The Clips got off to to a great start this season, but it looks like the boat has sprung a leak. Doc River's boys have dropped 5 of their last 6, only nipping Phoenix along the way. The best bench player in the league, Lou Williams, is sidelined with a pulled hammy. They're not the same team without him. Portland comes in off a nice win over the Raptors and won't let this one get away. PORT +110 on the ML is the call.

    For the record, I'm gonna also play.....

    HOUSTON -4.5 over Utah. The Jazz played in Mexico City on Saturday night so they just might be suffering from Fanny Faucet. Either way, Houston has been playing much better and has double revenge. Play the Hardens!

    SAN ANTONIO +1 against Philly. The 76ers are in a tough scheduling spot. They played yesterday and this will be their 3rd game in 4 nights. The Spurs have been a tough out on their home court. Pop's boys get 'er done tonight.

    As always, best of luck
    Harry

    nice picks man GL !

    don't you think Spurs should be -3 favorite? phiily are b2b and Spurs are hot at home lately despite the loss to chicago..
    also what do you think about phoenix line? without the new players from Ariza trade and they are shit at the road why NYK just -2?
    also DET +4 looks good in my opinion..DET love to play against good teams at home

    Yup. They were way over their heads to start the season. Coming from a Clippers fan, I knew it was coming...

    Gun to my head I'd actually play Phoenix as the short dog (but gun or not, wouldn't risk much). They're much better with Booker in the line up and own the scheduling advantage.

    As for Detroit, knife to my throat, I'd take them in the home dog role. They played great the other night against Boston, and the Bucks have been a mediocre road team.

    Jeez, maybe I should be going to Sports Books in nicer neighborhoods, eh?

    Good luck!

    The best home ATS vs the worst road ATS and the books offer -2? They’re begging for Clipper money so I threw down on some Blazer ML too. Good luck Harry.

    i was thinking the same thing.......

    FADE (at some point) teams that got off to amazing starts...... TAIL good teams with rough starts (not sure i love this one as much)

    watch LAC to hit a mental/physical wall, and it may have already happened.

    Good Call. The Clippers want it, but they don't got it!

    Beverly is hurt, they have no point guard right now, he looks like he has a hamstring or groin injury.

    Always dangerous to pop the champagne cork before the final buzzer, fellas!

    Still, I hit my other 2 so I'm hoping for a nice trifecta sweep......
