I was with you on Houston. But I knew the veteran experience of a game seven was the only weak spot to the pic. Ironically, Buddy Hield sunk us, and he has hardly any playoff experience. I follow you all the time crazy milkman you’re the best! I’m gonna take Denver with a 10.

In March, they played in Indiana and Pacers won by won.  This one comes down to the end.

3-1.  Nice picks.

Houston's athleticism could wear Warriors down.  If Van Fleet is a 37 percent shooter then he's over due to hit some next game.  And Green won't have two stinkers.

Glad you’re on Hawks. Always follow ur picks. 

fantastic capping

Just in. Giannis is playing. Bucks -7. Glad I got the short line. Go Bucks!

Nba.com just listed Freak as questionable.

Fanduel says antenkoupo (sp.) is questionable.  Nba.com says he's probable.  But the questionable is probably legit. 

It's not like the Lakers Knicks line that dropped two points.  That's just New York money-- lotta of it.  But no one cares about Magic and Bucks.

Dunno. Liillatd and freak probable. Suggs out

utah jazz, san antonio spurs

nice feel.

you must like the spurs tomorrow?

ah hem, any lean on the Bucks-Mavs?

AsUsual great thread bb

Warriors blew smoke up his butt. He delivered with a championship. He’s no jimmy butler in so many ways. Dedd see desperate owners kicked him to curb. They wanted Kuminga. 

Butler took Miami to two finals.  He's worth twice as much as Wigs.  Wiggins was amazing in that last finals run.  That's his apex.  Butler's a wild card.  I think he'll shock.  If they stay healthy, and that's a big if, this team could make a run.

And Sac is in disarray with the Fox trade and the addition of Levine.  They're finesse is now out the window with two ball eaters (Levine and Derozan) in the starting lineup.  How did that work out for them in Chicago.  Only downside to this play is Sac getting blown out last night.  As I say, this Portland of the last ten games reminds me of Chauncy's 2004 DEETroit Pistons.  Bunch of unheralded players fitting perfectly together. Camara is a pleasure to watch, if you like defensive prowess.  Good luck.

In the Kings favor is the blowout loss last night.  But if you watch these last few Portland games, the Blazers remind me of the 2004 Pistons.  Everyone's healthy.  Scoot comes off the bench.  Avidja out of nowhere  turns into  a banger of a player.  Ayton looks like a legit center with a nice medium range jump  shot for which his teamates set him up.  And Carmera is currently one of the top defensive players in the league-- quick, long and SMART.  I think the Blazers next loss will be on a back to back versus a better team than the trade altered Kings.  However, the bad beat last night is a good sign for the Kings.  Good luck Kings backers!
