First time poster here. Been really enjoying the Cover's forum and have decided to go ahead and start posting my picks.
Tuesday 11/20:
1. Only one game I really like straight up on the card here. I like a fiesty Raptors bunch to keep it close in Philly. Bargnani poised to have a big day and Calderon has been playing well lately. Toronto is 3-2 ATS on the road vs. a 76ers bunch that is struggling to find consistency in the absence of Bynum and is 2-3 ATS at home. 76ers really haven't played great on this homestand despite winning the last two. Got beat outright as heavy favorites against Milwaukee and Detroit followed by a sloppy cover against Utah and a barely cover against Cleveland. I even think the Raptors have a decent shot to win outright, but am taking the points.
Pick: Raptors +5.5- 2u
2. While only liking one game on the card straight up, I do see value in a tease here involving all three games tonight. A well rested Knicks bunch that hasn't yet lost two straight regular season games under Mike Woodson's watch seems poised for a victory tonight. I do see this as a potential trap game for the Knicks so don't like them ATS but see tremendous value in picking the Knicks to win the game without the points.
In a similar situation, I am not very confident in the Lakers giving 5.5 against a hot Nets team but really like them +1.5. Finally, since I am confident in the Raptors covering 5.5 in Philly I see no issue with adding them to the card with a 6 point cushion.
Pick: Knicks +.5
Lakers +1.5
Raptors +11.5- 1u
Hope to get off on a good note as I try to establish a good track record with my picks here on Covers. Best of luck to everyone.

Lost a tough one riding the Craptors... Think it was the right play but doesn't always work out. Still very alive in the teaser so hopefully we can minimize the damage. Would be real surprised if the lakers don't cover +1.5
