-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2-2 yesterday, lost 10 bucks.  Celtics almost pulled it out for me on the ML...but too many mistakes late and an unfortunate missed call.  Nuggets did the same thing, blew a nice lead late to miss out on the cover.  Overall, not a bad day in my mind.

Orlando vs. Indiana -

Initial lean is on the Pacers coming off a big win last night on the road.  Magic are in the middle of their road trip, and have been playing very well on the offensive end...but going up against one of the better defensive teams will be tough.  I think it ends up a lot like last night's game for the Pacers...something in the 109-92 range.

Indeed. Very close to a huge day. Great call on the Celts! GL today

Portland vs. Milwaukee -

Initial lean is on the Bucks either for the full game or for the first quarter.  They are well rested for this game, the Blazers are coming in from Philly.  Portland has also struggled to start off games in the past week or two.  Was leaning towards the UNDER as well for the full game, but the total just seems strangely high to me...OVER's in Blazers games against teams that either allow or score 100 points per game have been hitting just about every time....OVER is 16-5 for the Blazers in their last 21 games...will stay away from the total in this one.

Denver vs. Oklahoma City -

Great game here...should be fast paced and exciting the whole way through.  Initial lean would be on the Nuggets, although not a strong feeling on it.  Thunder want revenge, and they want to shut down the streak.  One of those games that I just want to sit back and enjoy...gun to my head I'm taking the Nuggets

LA Clippers vs Sacramento -

Initial lean would be towards the Clippers in this one.  Kings are very well rested, and have been playing better in a lot of ways, but will more than likely be without Evans or Cousins in this game.  Kings haven't had to leave the state of California in 3 weeks...and the Clippers have been inconsistent...so a lot of signs are pointing towards the Kings.  I'm seeing a 20 point win for the Clippers tonight.  Main reason is that the Kings don't want to play defense, and without their two main scorers, they just don't have anyone that is athletic enough to contain Griffin/Jordan/Paul or any of the Lob City guys.

What do you think about the O/U for Nuggets/OKC as well as LAC/SAC?

Great write ups!Reset

Too tough to tell on the Nuggets/Thunder...last meeting was a little slower, but I think it falls within 3 points either way.

Would have to wait for clarification on the Kings injuries before you can look at the totals

any cbb,,u been very hot there,,,gl

cmj

Milwaukee Bucks -5.5  (1.1 to win 1)

Blazers are terrible on the road, and the Bucks are rested and ready.  Should be a double digit win.

Prediction:  Bucks 107  Blazers 96

Kentucky -3.5  (1.1 to win 1)

Come on now...be serious.

North Carolina A&T -3  (1.1 to win 1)

Average team in a bad conference against a bad team in a bad conference.

kentucky are a disgrace

clippers??

Well...the Bucks held on just barely!!  Surprised that it was even that close. 

Kentucky is a disgrace for sure...but it's all because of the NBA rules that a players has to go to college for at least one year.  It's ruined the sport

Gun to my head, took nuggets. Thanks

Yep...just another winning night.

How did u have a winning night? U lost both CBB picks and won the one NBA pick. 

Because he won less than he lost..
