My pick of the day: Boston should beat Minnesota very convincingly, take them -12.5 and don't look back.

I would take the under on all Bobcats games. They have the worst offense in the league, but a top 3 defense. So nearly all their games will be in the 80's or low 90's.

No play as I mentioned and good thing.

However, shocked that Cleveland was beat at home, and after watching the game they really do look terrible. Still early and I expect them to click, but the Coaching is really lacking.

No actual plays once again as I am already on football.

Atlanta -2.5 @ Charlotte - Normally close and should be close once again!

Washington/Indiana over 207.5

Toronto +4 at New Orleans - Completely going against the public and heavily favored New Orleans.

I really like Portland to cover 4 points at home against SA (who played last night).

I'm so-so on that game. Both teams are suspect right now and I don't know if I can see San An losing back to backs right now and if they do that 4 points might actually come into play.

I'm taking Memphis +10 against the Lakers. Bynum and Gasol out, I expect Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph to own the paint and keep the game close, if not pull off the upset.

i like both Thunder-Rockets over 188 Clips-Warriors over 215, probably going to play the latter.

Good call. I picked the Thunder/Rockets over on covers. It was 190 on there when I saw it:
NBA Oklahoma City 94
Houston 105 Over 190 500 WON +500



I just have so much money on football this week/weekend that I decided to pass on the NBA for the rest of the week.

Good luck.

NYK/MIL - over 195

Like this one. Neither side are defensive juggernauts. NY can put the points up, and Jennings, Bogut and the rest of Bucks can too. Hopefully both teams shoot the ball well.

Should've done some research. Bucks are the best defensive team in the league. I'm making a nice return on that fact.

6 points away, a lil' disappointing. Nice to see Bucks win.

Just pointing out the flaw in your reasoning. It was damn close, I was sweating on it all game.
