Charlotte Bobcats
FREE NBA PICKS FOR DECEMBER 28, 2009
Greetings. We are closing the 2009 portion of the season in winning style. Our season ATS record stands at 106-88-5. Of that, our locks are 3-2-1. We know it is not where we need to be, but we are winning each night. 7 Games on the docket tonight. This is what we like:
LOCKS
Thunder @ Nets +6: The Nets are making a habit of getting blown out this year. Of their 28 losses, only 9 have been by fewer than 10 points. They are a joke of a team right now. The Thunder will win their third straight. Take the Thunder and give the points.
PICKS
Bucks @ Bobcats -4.5: Bobcats are a completely different team at home (24-11 ATS in their last 35 home games) and they love Monday night games (9-2 ATS in their last 11). However, we still aren’t buying that they are a good team. Brandon Jennings has come down to reality as of late, but we like them to cover. They match-up well with the Bobcats. Take the Bucks and the points.
Wizards @ Grizzlies -5.5: We love the Wizards’ D in this game. We think they match-up well against the Grizzlies. Don’t be surprised in Washington wins outright. Take the Wizards and the points.
Lakers @ Suns +1: The Lakers have dominated this match-up as of late and look to build some momentum after their overtime win against the Kings. The Lakers are exactly what the Suns hate-a large and athletic team that plays well together. That is the recipe for beating the Suns. The Suns are off one of their worse performances of the season last time out. Even without Artest, the Lakers will still get the best of them. Take the Lakers and give the point.
Nuggets @ Kings +2: The Nuggets have been terrible since Chauncey Billups injured his groin. However, the Kings will probably be without Tyreke Evans and Sean May tonight. Those are bigger losses. Take the Nuggets and give the points.
76ers @ Trail Blazers -6: The 76ers have dominated this match-up as of late and they should get Iverson back tonight. The Blazers have been hot-covering in their last 4 games. We don’t think it will be 5 straight tonight. Take the 76ers and the points.
Celtics @ Warriors +6: The Celtics are one of the best road teams in the league, but they have not done well when visiting the Warriors. Still, they play outstanding D. The Warriors are hot off their pounding of a Suns team that played no D whatsoever. Tonight will be different. They will get all the D they can handle tonight. Take the Celtics and give the points.
Road team sweep for us tonight. That hasn’t happened before, but we are sticking with our system.
Good Luck,
Runny & Flash
FREE NBA PICKS FOR DECEMBER 8, 2009
Greetings folks. We had probably our worse night of the season last night going 1-3. It brings our season ATS record to 82-70-3. You don;t have to tell us-we know that is terrible. In efforts to get back on the winning side, we are conjuring up some of our old friends to help us out:
Lil Kobe and Lil Lebron Are Back After An Extended Vacation...We Are Sorry Basketball Handciapping Gods. We Won't Let It Happen Again.
And on with the picks:
Timberwolves @ Raptors -7.5: The T’Wolves are finally healthy and getting big contributions from their studs. Kevin Love has showed the promise of his first round pick status, and they are hot (on 4 straight covers). They travel north to face a Raptors team that is absolutely terrible on D, but has covered and won their last two times out. The Raptors have yet to win 3 straight games this year. They may break that streak tonight, but they won’t cover. Take the T’Wolves and the points.
Nuggets @ Bobcats +3.5: Talk about a tale of two teams. These teams could not be more opposite right now. The Bobcats are just terrible right now while the Nuggets continue to pound teams. The Bobcats are off 3 straight no covers while the Nuggets have covered 4 straight. The line is pretty low and it leads us to believe that it is a trap. However, we are going to stick to our numbers. Take the Nuggets and give the points.
Bucks @ Celtics -12.5: This is another game of total opposites. The Celtics are one of the hottest teams in the league right now while the Bucks are one of the coldest. That said, the Bucks have owned this match-up as of late (7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings) and they are a better (surprisingly) rebounding team. The Celtics have not been good giving double digit points. That said, we are rollin’ with them. They are rested and focused. Take the Celtics and give the points.
Kings @ Hornets -8.5: This is the most intriguing line of the night. These teams are almost identical in nearly all facets of the game, but the Hornets are laying a high number. The Kings are 8-0 ATS in the last 8 head-to-head meetings. Also, over 65% of the money is on the Kings and this line has gone up! It screams trap! We are not falling for it. We love it that CP3 is back for the Hornets. Take the Hornets and give the points.
Cavs @ Grizzlies +8: The Cavs are just steam rolling teams right now. They have found their groove and it is showing in the wins and covers column. We love how they match-up with Memphis tonight. They are rested. Take the Cavs and give the points.
Shaq Fu Panda Is Undefeated!!!!!
Nets @ Bulls -6.5: Both teams are terrible. The Nets finally got their first win of the season last week at home against the Bobcats. They look for their first road win tonight in the Windy City. They won’t get it. This game should be a beatdown. The Bulls will roll. Take the Bulls and give the points.
Suns @ Mavericks -4.5: We despise both teams and think they are both extremely soft. When in doubt between two soft teams, take the points. Take the Suns and the points.
Magic @ Clippers +7: The Clippers are not good, but they are at their best at home. That said, it won’t be enough. The Magic just stack-up too well against them. Take the Magic and give the points.
As always, good luck.

FREE NBA PICKS FOR DECEMBER 4, 2009
Greetings folks. We were back on the winning side with a 2-1 night. Feels good to win, but we know we blew it on the Heat-Nuggets game. That is how it goes sometimes, and we know we will keep it rollin’. There are 10 games on the docket tonight and we love it! Be sure to check out our posts for this weekend’s NFL and NCAA Football slates. There is a ton of action this weekend and it all starts tonight! On with the picks:
Raptors @ Wizards -3.5: The Raptors can’t buy a win or cover (0-5 ATS in their last 5 games). The Wizards seem to be geling and coming together as a team. That said, we like the Raptors tonight. They match-up well with the Wizards. Early in the week, we used that same logic to successfully predict Washington’s cover in Toronto. We are using it again here, but our calculations like the Raptors. Take the Raptors and the points.
Knicks @ Hawks -11: The Knicks have been cover demons as of late and have burned us pretty good. They are 28-13-1 ATS in their last 42 road games. It also helps them that the road team in this series is 7-2 ATS in their last 9 meetings. That said, we love the Hawks in this one. They are more athletic than the Knicks and they play better D. We think the Knicks will have an off shooting night. Take the Hawks and give the points.
Celtics @ Thunder +4.5: The Thunder are quickly becoming our favorite team. We love Kevin Durant, too. This team is a lot of fun to watch. Jeff Green is one of the most underrated players in the league. We love their energy and it is just a matter of time before Durant wins his first MVP. That said, the Celtics are a different animal. They are on fire right now and taking care of business. When that team is on, only the Lakers can rivaly them. The Thunder will be without Nenad Kristic. That will be a huge loss. Take the Celtics and give the points.
Timberwolves @ Hornets -9: The T’Wolves seem to have found their groove while the Hornets have struggled under their new coach and without CP3. Speaking of CP3, he was upgraded tonight to questionable. He would be a ridiculous lift for the Hornets. That said, even without him, we like the Hornets at home. They are 14-5 ATS in the last 19 meetings with the T’Wolves. Take the Hornets and give the points.
Bobcats @ Nets +4: The Nets are offically the worse team in NBA history. They are a joke of a franchise and Jay Z must be trying to expedite their move to Brooklyn. If this keeps up, the Jersey fans will probably volunteer to move them themselves. The Bobcats have hit some snags as of late, but their D is just way too good for the Nets. They are disciplined and play well together. They will cut the Nets apart. Take the Bobcats and give the points.
Mavericks @ Grizzlies +6.5: The Mavs own this series as of late (17-7-1 ATS in the last 25 meetings overall and 9-3 ATS in the last 12 games in Memphis). Memphis is finally home after a daunting 5 game trip where they 1-4 ATS. That said, the Mavs are soft and have a tendency to take games off after going on a string of solid wins. The Grizzlies are young and can out hussle the Mavs. Take the Grizzlies and the points.
Bucks @ Pistons -2.5: The Bucks have struggled as of late against Detroit (3-7 ATS in their last 10 meetings), and the favorite is 7-3 ATS in their last meetings. The Pistons are still without their playmakers and they were dominated in Chicago earlier in the week. The loss to Chicago was no fluke. The Pistons are just not that good right now. We are on the Brandon Jennings bandwaggon right now. We think he has a big night. Bogut should be strong in the paint. Take the Bucks and the points.
Bulls @ Cavs -13: This is a ton of points to give, but we know there is a reason why this line is so high. The Bulls are just not that good and they will still be without Kirk Hinrich. The Cavs are back to dominating teams again and they are rested. They will roll over the Bulls tonight at home. The Bulls are terrible on the road (2-8 SU), but one of their two wins came against the Cavs. However, this is a different Cavs team. They will get payback tonight. Take the Cavs and give the points.
Pacers @ Jazz -8: Until the Pacers show us they can closeout a team, we are not backing them. The Jazz are playing really well right now, too. The Pacers are in the midst of a long road trip. We love the Jazz here. Take the Jazz and give the points.
Heat @ Lakers -12.5: The Heat were crushed last night in Denver. It doesn’t get any easier for them tonight as they face maybe the best team in the league. The Lakers are rested and we don;t care if Artest boozes on the bench. It won’t matter. It scares us some that the Lakers have a tendency to blow big spreads, but we think kobe will be focused to face DWade. There won’t be a let-up. Take the Lakers and give the points.
As always, good luck with your picks.

FREE WINNING NBA PICKS FOR DECEMBER 1, 2009
Greetings folks. 3-1 last night brings our season ATS record to 66-54-2. We are making people straight cash money and we hope you are taking advantage of our picks. Our goal is to make you as much money as possible to bring down Vegas, your bookies an any websites you may frequent. The best part is our picks are totally free with absolutely no strings attached. Just read, enjoy and make your money!!
First things first:
Guess Who's Back....Back Again...Lil Kobe & Lil Lebron Are Back...Tel A Friend. Don't Forget To Mention The Winning Picks!!!!
Is It Us, Or Does Chris Bosh Look Like The Predator?!?!? The Resemblance Is Striking!!!
Good Thing Big Baby Is Not Playing Tonight....If He Was, We Would Have Taken the Bobcats Solely Because of This Photo. Please Tell Us That His Teammates Are Giving Him Constant Grief For This!!!
Yeap. Nuff Said.
Witness The Rebirth of Cool!!!! Just Not Tonight In Denver.
Nas & Young Jeezy...Guaranteed Two People You Won't See Court side in Portland Tonight
Hornets @ Lakers -14.5: This is a TON of points to give to a decent (although undermanned) Hornets team. However, this is the Lakers and they are crushing teams right now. That said, the Lakers have a tendency to play down to opponents at times. Typically they rip off a bunch of games where they crush teams and then settle on cruise control and maybe lose a game they should win. They beat the Hornets earlier in the year by 16 at home, and that was a team with Chris Paul running point. CP3 won;t be there tonight and there is a good chance neither will Peja Stojakovic. That doesn’t bode well for the Hornets. We do not like these points, but our numbers say take the Lakers. Take the Lakers and give the points.
Brilliant!!! We Need These To Rain From The Rafters in LA Tonight!!!
As always, good luck with your picks.

FREE NBA PICKS FOR NOVEMBER 28, 2009
Greetings folks. Fresh off of Turkey Day and our season ATS record is 59-52-2. We know that is not where we need to be, but we will keep working. Kobe and Lebron play tonight, so we pay our respects with this:
Lil Kobe and Lil Lebron Are Back!!!
On with tonight’s picks:
Bobcats @ Wizards -3.5: The Bobcats are en fuego right now and are off 3 straight wins and covers. The Wizards are turning their play around and have won two straight after being mired in a terrible slump. The key to this came is consistency, and the Wizards just have not showed us that they are a consistent club. Plus, the Bobcats are playing really well as a team right now. They match-up well against the Wizards. We love Gerald Wallace’s offensive ability and his glass work. We like the Bobcats to make it 4 straight covers. Take the Bobcats and the points.
Bring Us An Early Christmas Present, Stephen!!!!
Dallas @ Cleveland -6.5: The Mavs have not been good against good teams over the past few years. They have been particularly bad against the Cavs (2-7 ATS in the last 9 meetings). We are not convinced that the Cavs are a great team this year-as long as the have Lebron they will be good. We don’t know yet if they are an elite team. We’ll see. What we do know is that the Mavs have been better ATS this year and even more so in the recent games. That said, we are still riding the Cavs. The Mavs are on a pretty tough road trip. They are a soft team. We like the Cavs to avoid two straight losses and snag a cover. Take the Cavs and give the points.
Gisele Would Have Been Better Off With Lebron!
Trailblazers @ Jazz -5.5: The home team has a huge advantage in this series (21-8 ATS in the last 29 meetings). The Jazz are more rested and have had the luxury of playing their last 4 opponents at home. We think that is HUGE for the game tonight. The Jazz looked great blowing out a decent Bulls team last time out. Although we love the energy and athleticism of the young Blazers, we think the Jazz will have too much for them tonight. Take the Jazz and give the points.
Magic @ Bucks +6.5: The Bucks have been home demons as of late, going 7-2 ATS in their last 9 home games. We love their energy and Brandon Jennings is showing that he could be a star in the league. However, they key to this game is who will not be playing. Andrew Bogut. Losing him in the paint against teams with solid big men has proven to be the Achilles Heel of this team. They get no bigger or better than the big man they will be facing tonight-Dwight Howard. He will be too much for the Bucks. Take the Magic and give the points.
Yeap, That's My Bit*h!! The Bucks Are Next!!!!
Lakers @ Warriors +9.5: The road team has been solid in the recent meetings, going 12-4 ATS in the last 16 meetings. The Lakers love spreads under 10 points and they are well rested. They will be ready for this game. We’ve admired the heart that the Warriors have shown as of late. However, the Lakers will have too much for them tonight. Take the Lakers and give the points.
As always, good luck with your picks.

FREE NBA PICKS FOR NOVEMBER 25, 2009!!!
Greetings folks! 3-2-1 last night brings our season ATS record to 54-45-2. Again, we know this is not up to our standards, but with another winning night, we are moving in the right direction. There are a ton of games tonight, so we know we have a ton of opportunities for more winners. We are busy and we love it!! Check out our NCAA football and NFL posts for tomorrow’s and Friday’s games, too. We are working plays all weekend long!!! Sit back, eat some turkey and take our picks all the way to the bank!! We are looking to help you make some extra scratch for Black Friday shopping deals!! That said, here is the first step:
Oh yeah…forgot about Lil Kobe and Lil Lebron:
Lil Kobe & Lil Lebron Are Back For More Winners!!!!
Clippers @ Pacers -5.5: The Pacers looked pretty darn bad last night in Toronto and are in the midst of a bad slump. They look to avoid their 5th straight SU loss and ATS loss. The bad thing is that in their losses, they have been pretty much blown out each time. Only in one of the 4 losses (against the Knicks) have they even kept it close. They are a team that looks very confused right now, and they are getting a Clippersteam that is rested and will probably have their young gun, Eric Gordon, back from injury. Even without Gordon, we like the Clippersto cover. We think the Pacers will win the game to end their losing streak, however, we think this is too many points to give. Take the Clippers and the points.
Holy Sh*t!!! We Picked The Clippers to Cover!!!!
Raptors @ Bobcats -3: The Raptors have been terrible on the road this year and cannot stop anyone anywhere. They are off giving the Pacers a beatdown last night at home. They are terrible as Dogs this year (0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as Dogs), but we think they finally breakout of the Dog cover slump. Take the Raptors and the points.
No Early Christmas For You, Stephen Jackson!!!!
76ers @ Celtics -13: The Celtics have been terrible as of late. This team is WAAAY better than this and they know it. After nearly losing to the Knicks last time out, the Celtics need to get back on track. They are rested and at home tonight against a 76ers team that is struggling, too. The 76ers lost a tough one last night in Washington and they may be without Elton Brand tonight. That is bad news for them. We think the Celtics finally right the ship tonight. We don;t care that the road team in this one is 18-8-1 ATS in their last 27 meetings. Take the Celtics and give the points.
Heat @ Magic -9.5: The Heat have been absolutely terrible in their recent games, losing 4 of their last 6 SU and 6 straight ATS. They get no relief tonight against a Magic team that is playing well as of late. The Magic are rested and do everything better than the Heat except field goal %. This is an easy cover. Take the Magic and give the points.
Ridiculous!! Dwight Howard Looks Like He Is Playing on Stilts!! Good Luck, Miami!!!
Bucks @ Hornets -2.5: The Bucks finally have Michael Redd back, but they are still without Andrew Bogut. The Hornets are still without Chris Paul. However, the Hornets have covered their last 4. We don’t think they make it a 5th. The Bucks are better defensively and on the glass. They have Redd back. The Hornets will have no answer for him. Take the Bucks and the points.
This Is What The Bucks Think Of Your Chances Tonight, New Orleans!!!!
Cavs @ Pistons +6: The Cavs have not been a good team ATS, but neither have the Pistons. The Pistons will be without Prince and Hamilton (again). They will not have enough fire power to keep up with a rested Cavs team. We love this line. Take the Cavs and give the points.
Nuggets @ T’Wolves +8.5: This line seems a little like a trap because it is so low. The T’Wolves have not won since beating the Nets weeks ago. The Nuggets are one of the best teams in the league. On paper this seems like the line should be double digits. It may be a trap, so beware, but our analysis says ride the Nuggets all day. So, that is what we are doing. Take the Nuggets and give the points.
Dats Wus Up, Minnesota!! Be Carful Of Who You Are Messin' Wit!!
Mavericks @ Rockets -4: We hate the Mavs and love the Rockets. However, the Mavs own this match-up as of late. They also have more healthy weapons. Dirk is clutch. We love the points. Take the Mavs and the points.
Warriors @ Spurs -13.5: The Warriors are one of the hottest teams ATS right now, covering in 6 straight and 7 of their last 8. Unreal. They beat the Mavs outright last night with 6 freakin’ players!! Tonight they get another tough opponent in the Spurs, who are rested and ready. We love the attitude the Warriors have adopted since the injury bug hit. They have circled the wagons and look to pound everyone they play. However, tonight will be too much. The Spurs play well together and know how to win at home. They cover. Take the Spurs and give the points.
Grizzlies @ Suns -10.5: The Grizzlies are a terrible road team, but they are building confidence each night out. They are young and can really get after it. The Suns are off a lopsided win at the hands of the Pistons. We like the Grizzlies in this one because we think they match-up well against the Suns, and because they are playing solid D as of late. Take the Grizzlies and the points.
Nets @ Trailblazers -13: Nets are pathetic. Just terrible. They were crushed last night. They will get crushed again tonight. Take the Blazers and give the points.
Knicks @ Kings -4: The Knicks showed some poise last night making it a 10 point game against the Lakers. However, we think that was more of the Lakers just wanting to get out of dodge. The Knicks held their own against the Celtics last week, too. However, we think they happened to catch the Celtics in a slump. They are not a good team. We love the Kings tonight. Tyreke Evans should be back. Take the Kings and give the points.
As always, good luck with your picks.

NBA PICKS FOR NOVEMBER 18, 2009
Greetings folks. We had a terrible night last night with a 3-5 record. It is our first losing night in over a week. We have had a good run as of late, but we know another 3-5 night can happen at any point and we need to stay focused. The 3-5 night brings our season ATS record to 37-28-1. That is not even close to where we need to be (our goal is 65%). So, back to work….here is what we like tonight:
Cavs @ Wizards +5: The Cavs are just not covering and they are pretty banged up. Shaq is out again and there is a good chance no Anderson Varejao tonight. Even without them in the line-up, they are a good team, but this will be a tough road game. Washington has played the Cavs well in recent years and the Dog is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 meetings. This game will come down to Agent 0 and whether he has learned to follow his instincts like he did in the past. He has been a tentative player and if the Wizards are to keep this game close, they need to Agent 0 that drives to the basket and plays instinctively. We think he will do it tonight. Plus, the Wizards may be getting Antawn Jamison back tonight for the 1st time during the regular season. Take the Wizards and the points.
Agent 0 Sees A Win In His Future Tonight and So Do We!!!!!
Bobcats @ 76ers -4: The Sixers have been extremely inconsistent. They don’t play D andtheir front court has no clue how to rebound. In our opinion, Elton Brand has been a bust, and at best, was the wrong guy to fit in with their style of play. The Bobcats are fresh off a close loss to the Magic. Stephen Jackson looked solid in his debut. Hopefully for the Bobcats, he will be a positive force on and off the court this year. Larry Brown does have some experience successfully managing problem child players. This will be a tough game for them because the Sixers are rested and waiting for them. However, the Sixers will be without Marreese Speights tonight. Speights has arguably been their spark on offense this year. We’ll see how the Sixers respond. We think Jackson will have a solid game and keep it within 4. Take the Bobcats and the points.
Trust Us, If This Guy Comes Down Your Chimney This Christmas, Call The Cops Immediately!!!!! All We Want For Christmas Are Some Covers!!!!
Thunder @ Magic -12.5: Just when the Magic seem to get all of the pieces of their puzzle together on the court at once, they lose a major piece. Jameer Nelson is out for the next 4-6 weeks with a bum knee. This is a HUGE blow for the Magic, who struggled at times in their win Monday night against the Bobcats. However, Jason Williams will get the starting nod tonight in Nelson’s absence. He is certainly not the player he once was, but he is not terrible. We think he will surprise teams with his ball handling ability. The Thunder are legit and are off a HUGE win last night against the Heat. However, this Magic team is much, much better than the Heat team they faced last night. The Magic are rested, too. The game will come down to the front courts of each team. The Thunder, surprisingly, rebound much better than the Magic do. They also play better D. They also gave the Magic their worse loss of the season earlier in Oklahoma City. The Magic will be out for revenge and should be focused for tonight’s game. The Thunder have not lost by double digits all year and the Magic, with the exception of one game against the winless Nets, have not covered double digit spreads. We think the Thunder will have the energy needed to keep it within 12.5. Take the Thunder and the points.
We Are Here To Claim The Reward....We Found His Jumpshot. It Will Be In Orlando Tonight.
Knicks @ Pacers -6.5:Man, the Knicks are so sad. The are to the NBA what the New York Mets are to baseball-overrated by the market they are in and very, very disappointing. The Knicks are winless on the road this year and probably will not get their first win on the road tonight. This Pacers team is good and really gets after the ball on both sides of the court. Danny Granger has to be an early MVP candidate and Roy Hibbert has been ridiculous in the middle. The Knicks will have no response for either. The Pacers are HOT (5 straight wins and covers) while the Knicks are not (6 straight losses and not covering in 5 of those 6 losses). The line is low because the Pacers played last night and the Knicks are rested. We don’t care. Take the Pacers and give the points.
That Is All We Have To Say About That...
Heat @ Hawks -7.5: The Heat looked terrible last night against the Thunder. They could not handle the size and energy the Thunder brought to the table. Things look bad for them tonight because that is exactly what the Hawks will bring at home. This team is young, athletic and fast. Each game they player better and better together. They will be a force in the regular and post seasons this year. The Heat are good, too, but they won’t have enough in the tank tonight. Look for another low scoring Heat performance. We love this line. The Hawks have covered every time they were the favorite this year. Take the Hawks and give the points.
Warriors @ Celtics -16.5: The walking wounded Warriors limp into Beantown to face a rested Celtics team. The Celtics have struggled as of late and look to avoid a 3rd straight loss. They will. We think they cover, too. Despite the spread being high, we think the Celtics are exactly what the Warriors don’t want to see right now: a rested, veteran team that is deep and plays well together. We think the game will be somewhat close until the 4th. The Celtics win big. Take the Celtics and give the points.
Hate to Be Spoilers, But The Celtics Win Big Tonight.
Rockets @ T’Wolves +5.5: The Rockets are off a big home loss to the Suns last night. The T’Wolves are off losses to pretty much everyone. They may get Al Jefferson back tonight, but even if they do, it won’t matter. Even a sluggish, tired Rockets team will cover this spread. The T’Wolves just have no answer for anyone right now. Trevor Ariza is opening eyes with his new role as a starter. He should have a solid night again. Take the Rockets and give the points.
Nets @ Bucks -10: The Nets have yet to win this season and are a dismal 4-7 ATS. The Bucks have been been outstanding this year and are tied for 2nd in the Central. With the exception of the Warriors, the Nets may have the most injured team in the league. It will not help them on back-to-back nights against a hot, relentless Bucks team at home. The Bucks will have just too much depth. Take the Bucks and give the points.
Clippers @ Grizzlies -5: The Grizzlies look to build on their win and avenge an earlier season loss against the Clippers tonight. We don’t think it will happen. Although we love OJ Mayo and Rudy Gay, we think the Clippers have a better roster. Plus they play much better D. We don’t think thegame last night will have too much of an effect on the Clippers tonight. The Grizzlies may win, but it will be close. Take the Clippers and the points.
Raptors @ Jazz -7.5: Deron Williams is back for the Jazz. That is HUGE for them. This has been along road trip for the Raptors who were crushed last night by the Nuggets. A rested Carlos Boozer should have enough to keep Bosh in check. The Jazz should win big. Take the Jazz and give the points.
Spurs @ Mavericks -2: The Spurs finally have their bug guns healthy, but even without them, they beat the Mavericks outright earlier in the month by 9. The Spurs are just a better team and the Mavericks are soft. Not much analysis for us on this one. The Spurs are winless on the road. They will right their ship tonight. They will win outright. We love the points. Take the Spurs and the points.
Could Be The Worse Photo in Sports History...No Wonder Steve Nash Left Dallas.
Pistons @ Blazers -10.5: This is one of our favorite games of the night. The Pistons are fresh off a beatdown at the hands of the Lakers last night. They are understaffed without Prince andHamilton. Travelling to Portland for a game in consecutive nights to face a rested Trailbalzerssquad is not what the doctor ordered. Portland is just much, much better in every phase of the game right now. Until the Pistons get Prince and Hamilton, they have only two legit scoring threats. One of those threats, Ben Gordon, plays crazy at times. Andre Miller will eat him alive. This game will not be close. Take the Blazers and give the points.
As always, good luck with your picks.

NBA PICKS for NOVEMBER 16, 2009
Greetings folks. We hope this great NBA season is treating you as well as it is us. After our terrible 2-4 start, we raised our season ATS record to 32-22-1. Not great, but certainly not bad either. We know we can do better. Anyway, on with what we love to do-make picks!! Here is what we think and are taking for tonight’s games:
Blazers @ Hawks -3.5: This could be the best game of the early season. Both teams are young and really are not getting the props they deserve. They are high energy and really know how to play as a team. The key, for us, in this game will be the Hawks D. We think they play better as a team and will limit what the Blazers will do. Also, although the Blazers are on a ridiculous run right now (6 straight wins and they have covered 7 of their last 8), they have not done it against the opponents the Hawks have. Given that this will be the 5th straight game on the road for the Blazers, we think the Hawks will have too much. Take the Hawks and give the points.
We Are With You...The Hawks Will Have Too Much For the Blazers Tonight.
Bobcats @ Magic-12.5: We have been back and forth all day on this game. The Bobcats can’t score, but our analysis said they would cover. We intended on taking them and the points until the trade for Stephen Jackson went down earlier today. Not sure if this is the right move long term for the Bobcats, but we are pretty certain it will not help them tonight. Losing Raja Bell will be HUGE for Vince Carter tonight. We think he has a solid game. Look for Dwight Howard to abuse Tyson Chandler in the paint. Also, consider that the Bobcats have not covered in their last 3 games and are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 trips to Orlando. We are taking the Magic and giving the points.
The Man!!!!!!
Mavs @ Bucks -1.5: This is our favorite play of the night. We despise the Mavs, but love them getting points in this spot. They are 1-2 SU on back-to-back games, and they have looked their age on the road. Kidd is a shell of his former self and the Bucks are young. That said, until the Bucks start knocking off top tier teams, we don’t buy the hype. Brandon Jennings needs to drop 50+ against a contender before we believe the hype. We think the Mavs win outright. Take the Mavs and the points.
Guaranteed Best Looking Person In Milwaukee Tonight.
As always, good luck with your picks.

Free Winning NBA Picks: 3/27/2009
We were running cold and the only way to break out of a cold spell is to show hot chicks and great arses. We are sure some of you have seen this video and if so, SHAME ON YOU!!!! This is right up RPJ’s alley and we needed to know about this a long time ago. You will enjoy this.
That just made my day and so did winning our Game 1 last night. Our Game 1s are now 4-4-1 and overall we are 16-23-1. Here are our picks for the night….
Game 1: Celtics -1 vs. Hawks. Father Time rolls into Hotlanta tonight to face a team they may very well see in the playoffs. The Hawks are younger, faster and very determined. However, this is the Celtics and they crush the Hawks in our system match-up. Plus, they win our two keys in big ways. That adds up to our pick of the night. The Celtics are due to snap out of their funk, too. They will win this one.
Game 2. Clippers +11 vs. Spurs. We LOVE making this pick. F the Spurs!!!!! However, you should note that we are not making this pick based on our hatred of their abaility to cover….the Clippers win our systemmatch-up records. So, we are rollin’ with them and laughing as the Spurs will give-up useless layups with seconds left to blow their cover!!!!
Game 3. Nuggets +4 vs. Mavs. Another pick we love because the Mavs are soft as hot butter. The Nuggets win this match-up in our system in a solid way. Their D will keep it close. We love it!!
Game 4. 76ers -4.5 vs. Bobcats. The Sixers are at home, which is key for this match-up. Larry Brown coached teams scare us-especially when they play his former teams. However, our system rules. The Sixers take care of the ball better and have better backcourt D. We’ll give the points at home.
Game 5. Thunder +5 vs. Toronto. We love this pick because if ever there was an Underdog, it would be the Thunder. They are just a terrible team, but so are the Raptors. The Thunder win this match-up in our system….we love that they are the Dog. We love us some points!!!!
Game 6. Grizzlies +3 vs. Kings. System wise, this game is identical to the Thunder-Raptors. We’ll keep taking the points everytime!! Plus, the Griz have some legit, young talent on their team. Mayo is the real deal, and if they can get their act together, they will be pretty good for years to come. The Kings just blow.
Game 7. Cavs -14 vs. T’Wolves. It is finally official…the Cavs are the new Spurs. This team screws us more often than not. They dominate our system, but continue to do the exact opposite of what we predict. We listed this game last just to say thayou should be aware that the Cavs are douchebags. However, we are loyal to our system so we are riding with ‘em. On paper, they should win by 100 points. They just dominate the T’Wolves in every facet of the game. Plus, they are at home on rest. However, buyer beware……
Good luck.
