81-63 YTD REGULAR SEASON... 56.2%
29-14 POD's YTD REGULAR SEASON.... 67.4%
 
35-18-2 Playoffs overall 66%...
13-10 POD in Playoffs 57%... 42-24 combined 64%...
 
Went 2-1 on those two game 7's the other night hitting the Lakers full game and 1st qtr. Really love the value were getting in these 2 spreads... BOL yall!!!
 
Lakers -6.5... ( The Lakers match-up alot better with the Nuggets than they did with the Rockets the Lakers no longer have to deal with the likes of Artest and Battier getting in the head of Kobe Bryant. Although I think that the Denver Nuggets are a great team I don't beleive they take game 1 in L.A. due to match-up problems. In the their last match-up in L.A. the Lakes got to the line 46 times making 37 of those, basically speaking the Lakers were having their way with the Nuggets in that game winning it 116-102.  The Lakers are 6-1 S.U. @ home in these playoffs and the Nuggets although they are 8-2 S.U. in these playoffs both of those losses came on the road so I favor the Lakers here with a spread that I believe is much valued being smaller than the last time they played in L.A. when it was -8.5. Also I might add the Lakers played in my opinion 2 teams in the Rockets and the Jazz that had much more talent than the 2 teams the Nuggets eased through in the Mavs and the Hornets ( Although I think the Nuggets are a good team I don't see the Lakers getting the credit they deserve for beating 2 quality teams).POD
 
  • Nuggets are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 playoff games as an underdog of 5.0-10.5.
  • Lakers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games as a home favorite of 5.0-10.5.
  • Lakers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.
  • Lakers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game.
  • Lakers are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 home games.
  • Lakers are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games as a home favorite.
  • Home team is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings.
  • Nuggets are 3-13 ATS in the last 16 meetings in Los Angeles.
  • Nuggets are 2-10 ATS in the last 12 meetings.

    •  

    Magic +9... ( This is a pretty sick trend the Magic are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 against the Cavs and more importantly 3-0 ATS this season against the Cavs and 2-1 S.U. All those trends set aside I think again this is all about match-ups and I believe the Magic have what i would like to call some pretty good medicine for Lebron James in Dwight Howard ( Dwight protects the goal better than no other in the NBA today). Although I think that the Magic can be very inconsistent at times as seen these playoffs and end of regular season no matter what the situation they seem to give the Cavs trouble in the scoring department holding them to 90 ppg this season and the Magic have averaged 103 ppg scoring against the cavs this season. Again the Magic played a couple of tough squads in the playoffs in Philly (who matched up well with the Magic) and Celtics (who would give anyone trouble in a 7 game series) while the Cavs coasted through beating up on my lowley Pistons and caught a Hawks team all beat up due to injuries. I see an overinflated spread in this game with the value in taking the points.)POD

    THAT WAS A VERY NICE WRITE UP ON THE MAGIC. STAN VAN THROWS OUT HIS TRAP DEFENSES AGAINST GOOD PLAYERS AND PROVES IT OVER AND OVER THAT IT WORKS. THATS WHY WE HAVE HANDLED THE CAVS THE LAST 7 OF 10. WE ARE TALLER IN THE THE INSIDE TURK AND LEWIS 6'10 INCLUDING DHOWARD AT CENTER. THIS WILL BE A TOUGH MATCHUP AND WILL SEE IF LEBRON JAMES WANTS IT AS MUCH AS HE SAYS HE DOES I FEEL FINALLY WE CAN SEE SOME ENTERTAINING BASKETBALL WITH LEBRON AND THE CAVS. GL WITH THE PICKS DEF LEANING ON ALL OF THE ABOVE...

    I will play Orlando big... but in Game2
    Orlando is coming from a 7 Game-Round2 against the Celtics to play the Cavs on the road.
    Cleveland will roll this game like a rollercoaster to show Orlando that this series could be over quite fast (but it won't...).
    So this is the right letdown possibility so Orlando can start their magic show in game2.

    My prediction:

    Cleveland by 13 in Game 1

    Orlando by 2 in Game 2


    So i am playing Cleveland -8,5 big !
    And after Cleveland covers this i am big on Orlando +X in Gm2 and with a small amount on Orlando ML
