I'm doing pretty well since I started gaming as a part time job back in Sept. I attribute a lot of my LUCK to the picks of CMJohnson, Northern Capper, Khemer Kid, and Big Giant Killer. Owe you guys the student loans I paid off and the vacations I went. Last time I got blasted was the night of Clippers/Lakers game when I went 3-3-1(only because I tilted, teased the spread and over, otherwise 1-3-1, whew).
With the OKC/MIN game, I'm taking the points. Without Love I'm not sure that MIN can repeat the last upset (started it all for my December hot streak!), but the way they match up and with MIN getting up for this game, I dont see them losing by more than 7-8.
Leaning MEM in the game vs Golden State for the sole reason that every time I bet against MEM I get burned. I really like GS, really like what David Lee is doing...but I see Memphis just pounding them. Unless you really like gambling and are up some cash, I'd leave it alone. But I expect MEM to win.
GL everyone!
Hoping to keep the trend going to night with a 2 play for sure, maybe adding one more. No parlays, no over/unders tonight.

Houston vs NO: HOU -2.5: $250
MIN +12.5 vs OKC: MIN +12.5: $250
Memphis vs Golden State: MEM +1: TBA
Really really like Houston in this game. No, I dont think it's a trap. I think the line is this way because Houston dropped bombs last night and they're on the road. On B2B's HOU is 4-5 ATS, my only slightest concern. Plus in the middle of a 5 game winning streak, they might be DUE for a loss...but not tonight against a soft NO team. Bank this one.

MIN -1: $100 (Get off the ATL Kool Aid, they're not realiable anymore. I also did not post this bet, only the lean I made. Sorry, made it too close to tip off.)
I also just locked and loaded that MEM +1 for $100. Probably a mistake, but I'm having a really, really good month. Follow me in the NFL forum if you bet football. Post coming Thursday.

Not liking Hous tonight. Just like last nights Indy line I think public pounding Hous. Think Hornets win outright. I'm not big on road teams either. BOL

been on rockets during their mini streak and been tailing you. Rockets have me a little nervous tonight though but gonna go with the gut and you with a 10 unit game. I have won their last 3 games with 10 unit bets so ill be superstitious and do it again. Also i go through a local and hes probably gonna give me rockets -4.5. Would you still take it.

I'm on the opposite side of your plays. My thoughts...
OKC off a straight up loss, plus revenge factor (that started your run) + Love out (and Minny won last night which allows them to accept this loss a lot easier) = OKC BIG Blowout (win by 15 or more)
NO Hornets beat Spurs a few days ago... Eric Gordon playing well, feeling good about themselves, confident and rested at home. Public on Houston after last night's win = Hornets +2.5
GS got embarrassed by the Clippers last time out. Had plenty of time to think about it. Memphis 3rd straight road game. Taking GS - 1.5

I normally would fade Houston in this scenario too. So many factors going against them. My only thing is Jeremy Linn does not take days off, Harden wants to be recognized as a star in the league.
Credit due to NO for beating SA and Dallas...but with the way the Rockets match up I dont see N.O winning.
I'm not going to bet the Houston/Boston game...but I like Boston in that game after tonights. Fade me if you feel strong enough, and GL no matter what!

I'm in the same boat as you as far as gut feeling goes. At -4.5 I think your local has some good info, but I would take Houston tonight all the way to 5.5.
FYI I took the MIN and MEM games to hedge the possible HOU loss. Hoping to go 3-0 obviously, fully expecting 2-3. If I go 1-3 or 0-3 I'm going big on 1 play tomorrow and hunkering down for NFL.
If I end up positive tonight, I'll stack another 3 games tomorrow.
Best of luck everyone tailing me, and nothing but love for those fading me.

TheForbes777 might be right about your local guy having some info. ... BUT --> more likely he's taking a lot of action on (a betting public) Houston, which is why he's raising the line. He's scared, but he might end of making BIG money tonight.
The line is still 2.5 in Vegas. I took it and will ride with the result.

One last note on the Minny game. The reason I like MIN to cover/possibly win is that I believe that OKC is very overrated. They're not the same team that almost one it all last year with Harden.
Russell Westbrook continues to show me that he is selfish, and not content to play the Scottie Pippen to Durant's Jordan. I expect them to overlook this game and expect to walk on MIN. I see MIN getting up for this game and spreading the ball. If the 3 pointers fall, MIN keeps it close the whole way, and goes up at half. If not, I see OKC going up big mid 3rd quarter and sleeping to a 9-10 point win. Either way, I find it really really, reallyreallyreally hard to see OKC getting so much space with a fired up team still playing for the playoffs.

Yeah, I couldnt believe that 4th quarter in the Houston or Minny games. Like I said though, they were due for the loss. I'm still on them though. MIN really got faded in the 4th too, missing Love a lot more than I thought. They're in trouble the rest of the season.
I'll bounce back today.
