I ran a betting series with the NFL, and actually did quite well (over the course of the season, betting the spread, I’m more than 20 games over .500), and I’ve decided to do a little dancing with the NBA. I won’t comment on each, just put some winners. I’m going to try and pick between 3-5 teams a day — they’ll usually be posted in the day time, but I was unable to get to it today, so night time will have to do. Hopefully I’ll help you out.
-Rockets @ Celtics (-11.5): Would you really pick against the C’s at home?
-Blazers (-4) @ T’Wolves: Would you really pick the T’Wolves?
-Warriors (+6) @ Mavericks: The quick thing to do is take the Mavs at home. It’ll probably be the popular pick. But ‘Nelly knows a thing or two about Dallas, and I’m still not sure the Mavs have taken enough Advil to rid last year’s playoff hangover.
-76′ers @ Jazz (-9.5): Go Kyle Korver!
