JPicks
Pretty much a regular
42-33 +7.20 Units
6-7 ML's +1.65 Units
Seems like I made alot better decisons that what I profited from the day, but after 4 days down I'll take being up a couple of units on the day. Of the 3 losses I'd say they all sucked. No reason to break them down. Luckily none of them were close other than the Kings play but if you were in the in-game you'd know why that meant little to me.
Anyways on to Saturday. Posted most of my thoughts in the discussion thread, but still haven't looked at the last 4 games other than I think the Portland line is shady as hell and the Rockets have all the ingredients to implode if they don't turn it around. Interested quite a bit in the quotes coming out of Texas after this one. Love to see a blownaway appearance to see what his thoughts are about the team right now. T-Mac has to be really frustrated along with Ming. Ming gets 9 shots off (5-9) while Brooks shoots 17 times (6-17)? Houston off a 5 game roadie with no rest and then a roadie following one day off. Tons of questions.
Posting this one now as it's at 9 everywhere other than BM and -10c on the +9 at Pinny so it's likely to move back to the opener at 8.5.
Nets +9.5
Played this one on principal and it goes against alot of trends I'm sure. The bottom line of this play is that the Hawks aren't playing great defense and DD's is alot to ask of them right now. The loss of Josh Smith is showing up more and more as the Hawks are playing short handed and look extremely tired. Nets are also in the middle of a busy schedule but I think the return of Harris gives them a new life. One other really interesting thing to look at with the Nets is how they do versus teams with different styles. They've gotten beat down twice by Indy, lost to PHO by 28, lost to GSW at home by 8 but faired well versus half court teams covering against DET (SU win), MIA, ATL (SU win). Not really sure where to throw WAS in the whole mix. Not sure the Nets have enough to pull out the SU victory, but I like them to hang around long enough to get the cover.
