NBA Friday (YTD 5-7)

Question

41.67% / -2.80 unitsI finally got back on track last night picking up the win in the Warriors / Magic game.  As expected, Howard went off against a Warrior team that had no center.  On to today...Bucks &#x2B;9 -110 (2 units)The Mavs have been playing very well as of late, but to me this sets up as a let down spot for the Mavs to a certain extent after that hard fought win against the C&#x27;s on Wednesday night.  Also, I really don&#x27;t like the way this team is constructed this season, despite the fact that they are playing better.  Add-in that Bogut should give whomever is down low some problems and the fact that Jennings should run circles around Delonte West, and I just think the Bucks keep this close.  I am not ready to call for the outright upset, but I do think this ends up being a 1-5 point victory for Dallas.

Hey aggie how have you done in the past in the NBA?

70-52 last year.I didn&#x27;t post last year and I need to do a better job of consistently posting this year.  I have posted all of my NFL plays this year, which is good, but I have gotten away from doing the same with CFB and CBB for whatever reason.  I am thinking about focusing my efforts on just NFL and NBA in terms of posting and really trying to post all of those picks.  I think narrowing it down to just those two sports will help me have enough time to post everything.

Another lean (although not a play right now) is Houston -8.  Granted they are 3-7, but they have played 7 road games and have the toughest strength of schedule in the NBA through the first part of the season.  This has the potential to be a game where the Rockets take out their frustrations on a below average Kings team.

Will this sucks.  I know there is still time left, but pissed to see Bogut is not playing.  Not sure what happened with that one.

Waytoo many poeple on Bucks tonight aggie, i just stayed away from this one...Kind of sen the bloodbath coming with the line going up instead of down..

aggieaccountant · Answer

tinoker, I hear ya. Good decision on your part.

Adding:

Miami/Denver o210 -110 (1 unit)
Miami has been on the road for a while now and I expect them to be a bit tired. When teams are tired they tend to lapse on the defensive end. I see that being the case tonight. Add-in that the Denver defense is relatively weak while there offense is very good. This one should be up and down with more than enough possessions to get to the over.
