NBA Picks for 1/27

NY (+3.5) 100 Units - Win
BOS (-4.5) 100 Units - Win
HOU (+6.5) 100 Units - Win

Good day today. Without Bosh, NY was able to outscore Miami. Houston even had a chance to win their game, and Boston covered as expected.

Picks for 1/26

Memphis (ML -157) 100 Units - Lose
Toronto (+4) 100 Units - Lose
Milwaukee (+2) 100 Units - Win
LA Clippers (+7.5) 100 Units - Lose
San Antonio (ML -145) 100 Units - Win
Orlando (-5.5) 100 Units - Win
Detroit (+2) 100 Units - Lose
Minnesota (+5) 100 Units - Win
Charlotte (+6.5) 100 Units - Win
Golden State (+2) 100 Units - Lose

Edit: I went 5-5 last night. Not phenomenal but a few factors in play - LA Clippers were playing well but Houston picked up the pace in the 4th and LA just quit. Denver and Detroit was close until late, and my other losses were just not good picks. I'm working on the way that I choose winners and with the certainty that warrants putting money on them.

Notes on Picks

I'm just getting into the swing of NBA betting, I've spent some time revising my picking strategy. As a result, I think I can be more accurate here with my picks, HOWEVER it is still untested. As of yet I have not put anything down on any of these and am just posting them as an effort to track my progress.

Also, big money on the Packers last weekend was something I had not posted, but was my only bet, and it did pay off indeed. Thoughts on the Super Bowl coming, but I'm currently favoring the Steelers. The Packers caught too many breaks last week and I think they're overrated by the public. Not that they aren't a contender but I think they have less of a chance than the public is giving them credit for.

Picks for 01/25
DEN -4.5 (50 Units) - Win
SAC +1 (50 Units) - Lost
BOS -18 (50 Units) - Lost (This line dropped to 16.5 before the game, if I had waited I would have won)
LAL -7.5 (50 Units) - Win

Picks for 01/13

Orlando Magic (UN 205) - 27 Units
Washington Wizards (OV 208) - 27 Units
Miami Heat (-2) - 27 Units
Miami Heat (OV205) - 27 Units

Picks for 01/12

Chicago Bulls (-3.5) - 27 Units
Orlando Magic (UN191) - 27 Units

Edit: I went 1-1, not terrible but once again the Bulls didn't show up. They had a chance to win it late and kept pushing for the outside 3 instead of taking the easy baskets.

Picks for 01/11

NBA

76ers (-5) 27 Units - Lose
Pacers (OV 196.5) 27 Units - Win
Trailblazers (-4.5) 27 Units - Lose
Trailblazers (UN 203.5) 27 Units - Win
Cavaliers (+15) 27 Units - Lose


Edit: Not such a great night tonight. The Cavs went all the way to LA and apparently forgot to bring any semblance of a basketball team. The Blazers and 6ers didn't show up either, but fortunately I got both of the OV/UN right. Slow night for the first post, but that's what it is.

NFL Playoffs:
Green Bay (+2.5) 100 Units
Baltimore Ravens (+3) 40 Units
Seattle Seahawks (+10) 160 Units

Green Bay might be the real deal. If their receivers can keep it together and stop dropping easy passes, they'll blow people out, otherwise it's going to be squeaking by like last week. They're still the better team, but Jones and Driver might ruin what has been a terrific season by Aaron Rodgers.

The Ravens and Steelers game was coming from a mile away - Kansas City was a huge fraud and my only mistake was not putting more units into it, 200 didn't even begin to profit enough off that sorry excuse for a team.

Which ironically brings me to the Seahawks. They're bad too, but not 10 points bad. The Bears haven't beaten anyone by 10 points, not to mention losing to Seattle already. Jay Cutler will probably appear out of nowhere and make it a game, but I still can't see the Bears covering this spread.
