DET +5 & ML
ORL +5 & ML
(1 unit)  & (.5 unit)

Really taking a chance on these two. DET seems to have found some energy with ATL and ORL NEEDS a win before a rough road stretch.

These are not strong plays but I think they are worth a shot.

strong lean on Orlando myself Parlay, however, without Fournier I think their game flow will struggle a bit.  Im gonna hold off and just play the props.

2 CBB games catching my eye for tomorrow:


Florida State -5.5   Okie state just dismissed 2 of their players in Dillard and Dawson.  Not huge contributors to the program but bodies nonetheless that could eat up minutes.  FSU's current coach Hamilton was OSU's coach for 4 years back in the 80's so I'm sure he will have some motivation to try and outcoach them.  Just a lean for now but might lock it up before it moves.

Louisville -12   ok, so ill admit this line looks too low because Memphis is terrible but then i noticed the game will be played at MSG which makes sense now.  Louisville is a team that has played MSG many times and its almost like a home away from home.  This should be a good ole fashion blowout.

I remember UCLA taking out Cincy in the Tourney last year so I could see a bit of revenge for Cincy today.  GL however you play it.

Taking a look at the Knicks +3.5

Melo's return to NY.  OKC coming off a triple OT win.  I think the team knows what kind of cancer he is and will want to send him packing.

DET -5 over CHI NFL (.5 unit)

These NFL games always play out stupidly. No way CHI wins at DET. CHI is a crap team that just stopped its 5-game losing streak. No QB. CHI is on the road against a desperate division rival. And, CHI has no playoff hopes at all. DET has been underachieving all year. This is a chance for DET to make a statement to the home crowd.
Nothing favors CHI. Yet, for no good reason, I know CHI will always be within a TD until late into the 4Q, to make the game look competitive. I suppose it makes for juicier in-game betting action.

CLE -9.5

CLE rarely covers at home (2-8). I think this time it's differet. My angle is that CLE covers because I expect them to lose at WAS tomorrow on Sunday. Either they lose to UTA (which I highly doubt with a spread this big), or on the road in their next game. I'm going to take a chance that CLE not only wins at home vs UTA, but that they cover big.

OKC -2.5 (my best bet of the day)

That double overtime win at PHI was impressive. Showed a lot of heart. But, now Carmelo is going back to his old team for the first time. Very dependable angle for an OKC win. 2.5 points is within one possession, but I might just take the ML or wait for NYK to take the lead and do OKC either PK or with points. With a line this tight, it is bound to happen.

LAC +6.5

Playing another angle here. LAC gets back on the winning track against MIA. Why? My angle says so and it has been somewhat reliable. If it loses, then I am losing this angle.

HOU is going to win again. How do you play this laying 11.5 points?

PHO +12

I really think the NBA owes PHO a win here. And, giving them 12 points just screams, take me!

DAL +7

Don't ask me why. But, SAS couldn't cover at home to a red-hot HOU team. Most expect a bounce back game for SAS against a team on the polar opposite of the spectrum in DAL. I don't trust SAS in this spot.

looking like 0-3 to start my Saturday.  This is the last time I tail some friends picks.   I give him winners and he gives me duds.  Makes sense.
