Boston busts out of the slump like we suspected. Pacers are playing great. New Orleans won. We are gaining confidence.

Miami -9.5 tonight.

Don't like laying big lumber, but hoping for tired Kings team (4th game in 7 nights, 3rd in 4 nights). Miami off a tough loss to Rockets where they blew a lead despite key players out. Plus 16-4 ATS vs Sac. That's why they call this gambling.

We will watch and MAY put a play on Minnesota later. Will post by 9:45 EST

Thank you Miami Heat for a zero-effort night. We plan to make up for it tomorrow when the Heat host punchless Charlotte. It will be an even larger play if Charlotte wins easily tonight. Now 38-28-2 which is not where we thought we would be.

First big night of the entire season. Letting it roll...

Atlanta +7, Utah +8, Indiana +5.5, Nets +6 (-120), Bulls -4.

Hoping we do not crash and burn. Pacers worry us the most, but past time to get on the Fade the Cavs bullet train. With my luck, they will cover, but let the fading begin nonetheless.

Look like we could whiff tonight. We've already lost the Nets and the Bulls, probably the Pacers as well. If so, we'll be taking an extended break. Probably won't post another pick until after the All-Star Break. My contact is pretty upset with the poor record...worst season in years for him.

Zach Levine of the Bulls was psyched out tonight by the Lakers. Typical UCLA player who chokes when they face the Lakers for some unknown reason. 3 of 16? Hell, I can shoot 3 of 17 if you put ME in the game. If I am the coach, I am benching a punk like Zach Levine until he stops playing like he is in high school.

F-ing disaster tonight which I feared. Hawks up 110-109 and promptly get outscored 12-0 the last 3 minutes. Pacers fall a lousy basket short of covering, the Bulls let the shit Lakers beat them at home (total psych out, because the Lakers truly are not that good, and will collapse after the All Star Break), and the Nets decided not to show up. We will be taking the Pacers, Hawks and Heat tomorrow night regardless of the line with a likely double-play on each although I will update that tomorrow. We will also be playing Toronto Sunday at home versus the Lakers, probably also a double-unit play, especially after Toronto's upset loss tonight at home. Cleveland will likely be huge favorites, and we'll grab those points as well come Sunday and see if we can get our money back.

I really like the Nets tonight. Wolves covered 7 straight home games. Nets get a big number and are good with it and after a blowout night. 6 straight double digit wins before their last game against Toronto. Don't be surprised if it is a ML winner. Anyway.. know you been struggling...but the guy is still had a profitable year GL

Disaster. We cannot believe the play of the Lakers and Magic ON THE ROAD despite top tier competition. Nets cannot even bring us a push tonight, Heat waited too late to start playing (and only pushed), Hawks was just a bad bet (I knew better). Pacers and Bulls as big dogs only way to go...they just cannot handle being favorites.

We will be back in a few days, but taking a long break. Consider the Nets, Hawks and Mavs as underdogs in upcoming games when they receive generous points.

40-35-3. Worst record in over ten years at this point of the season. We will see if we can turn it around.

Looks like we need a name change? "Mr Lucky" perhaps? :)

Just kidding. Stay strong and GL going forward.

We are 5-5 last 10 plays, so glad not to waste anyone's time. We probably joined the sharps tonight on Boston and Washington, both losers. Won Orlando (shocking).

So 45-40-3 for the season. You can bet we'll look hard at Boston and Washington next games.

We had Pacers -7.5, Minnesota -13 and Dallas +15.5 tonight. Asking Minnesota to cover 13 was a tall order and probably our worst play of the week. Lucky as hell that Indiana held on, and Dallas scoring last 3 minutes saved us there as Houston backed off. Confidence returning now, so we will start posting again.

49-41-3

49-42-3 after losing Bucks on last night before All-Star break.
Post All-Star Break:
Feb 22: (1-1) Nets +8, Sac +8
Feb 23: (2-1) Celts-1.5, Toronto-7, Cleve -5
52-44-3
Feb 24: (W) Minn-7, (W) Dallas +9 (went to +10), (L) Port -6.5. Not sure why we didn't take Boston...Knicks are toast without their big man, and Vegas still has not adjusted the line for them.
Will post beginning tomorrow. We are not a Service...tread carefully.
54-45-3 hoping to get back to customary 67% by season end.

Orlando +10 tonight (early birds got +10.5). Almost took Pacers, but line suddenly dropped from -3 and -3.5 to -2.5 half 15 minutes prior to tip. Scared us off although may not matter. Pacers a good play as road favorite, we just don't have money on them this time.

We snuck a win with Magic, then took Kings +5 at last minute, a very risky play. Better than having taken the Pacers, and we prefer to play two games per night with a card this large.

55-46-3

Feb 28: Char+8, Indi -4, Wash +9: 1-2 plus won our college play on Clemson for a split on the day (we are 7-0 in college hoops in 2017-2018, LOL).
Mar 1: no plays
Mar 2: Phil -3.5 = Win
Mar 4: New Orleans -4 = Win
Mar 5: Orlando +9.5, Port -2 = Loss and Win makes us 59-49-3. Kicking ourselves for not playing the Celtics.
Mar 6: Houston -5, Dallas +6.5, Portland -10 = Win, Win, ?

62-49-3 having zero plays since March 6th.

Hit Toronto -9 earlier today, taking Utah -1.5 at 4:00 EDT.

For fun, we've been playing SEC Tournament, winning each of our plays to end 13-0 year-to-date. We do not and will not publish college plays, but suffice it you say have never won in college hoops until this season. Good luck to anyone who plays colleges.

64-49-3 which is 56.6%. Not where we want to be, so we will keep plugging to get over 60%.

Sacramento +13.5 tonight.
