Going to fade the Pistons for a while without Brandon Jennings in the lineup. Cavaliers have been hot finally and playing reasonably well together with LeBron taking the lead. In order to beat the Cavs you need solid point guard play and penetration. Without Jennings I don't see that happening for the Pistons. Also a great revenge angle here as the Pistons handed out the worst loss of the season for the Cavs this year. Prediction: Cavaliers 101 Pistons 89

Done well on the team totals so far this year, and I really like this number. The Warriors average about 115 points per game at home this year...and although the Bulls are generally a better defensive team I don't think they have enough on the perimeter to slow down the Warriors tonight. Line is really solid, and I'm not sure what the Bulls offense will be able to do.
Prediction: Warriors 116 Bulls 103

Interesting line here. Wizards haven't gotten off on a solid note this road trip, and the Lakers generally play better without Kobe. Now that he has been ruled out for the season, I expect the younger guys on this team to rally together and put up a nice effort tonight against a team that probably isn't coming in with full effort.
Prediction: Wizards 105 Lakers 101

I like the reasoning here, why not add a unit or 2 on the over as well? The 197.5 line jumped out to me. If the young Lakers are down to run tonight the Wizzies will keep up. I predict the game in the 205-207 range. BOL!!! Prediction: Wizards 105 Lakers 101

really like your capping on the laker game. i went with mil last night @ +4. milwaukee is this year's phoenix suns of last year. Atlanta is having and oddly special year ATS. There's nothing to compare them to.

You have used this "lakers generally play better without kobe", the lakers are just plain terrible with or without, I follow the lakers pretty regularly, theyre just not good either way. I check in on your thread because I think you have a pretty good handle and great insight on the NBA, especially when you get on a roll like you have been recently.
But the Lakers are 1-5 ATS with one push, without Kobe and 0-3 ATS with Kobe in the last 10 games
Overall in the last 23 games they are 4-6 with 1 push ATS w/o kobe and 5-5 with 2 push ATS w/ Kobe.
The lakers play hard, effort is there for the most part, but the playing better without Kobe angle I just don't think is a very good angle. Just the same as it is with kobe angle because even though they are 5-5 ATS with him, he has just sat way too many games lately as the season has progressed to really see. Having said that, I had a lean myself to the Lakers +9, but it was more a feel of how I feel they will come out today, but I will pass, mostly because Wall plays very well against the LAkers and the interior of the Wizards I think will give them fits. A play I would be more interested in is Lakers +4, they tend to play pretty close, but 3rd Q they get buried, its almost as consistent as clock work, close at half and destroyed in the 3rd. But like I said they are playing so terrible I almost don't even trust that play with the mismatches there are.
GL either way

How good you feel about ur picks?? I been following u for a while now, some of ur picks have been really good to me. i been on a downward spiral lately.. need to get some swagger back. I read alot of posts here but not too many intrigue me (from other cappers).. i Like the CAVS just as u do, thinking on laying 5k on that pick.. from a scale from 1 thru 10. how confident are u on that??

to Jeremy, I don't even remember where I found it, I do remember watching "people are amazing" on you tube, and that was on the video and shortly after I saw the exact image on the internet, and like you my friend, thought I must put that one up.
