If I were a gambler, which of course I’m not…

I should have gone 2-1 last night if the OT hadn’t killed the over/under of the Heat vs. Nuggets. Here is what I like tonight…
*LOVE the Spurs (-3) vs. CAVS - Big Z is banged up (although playing). Field day for Duncan.

Grizzlies (+9.5) vs. SIXERS - Can Memphis put together two solid games in a row? Is Philly really 9.5 points better than the Grizz?

UNDER of the Pacers vs. PISTONS (198) - The Pacers have no point guard and are coming off a toss loss. 198 is a lot of points for these two teams to score.

UNDER of the Suns vs. WARRIORS (238) - I know both these two teams light it up, but 238??? Gotta go under.
HOME TEAM IN CAPS

*My Favorite of the night

    You. Are. Killing. Me. Smalls. It’s a good thing you aren’t a gambler, because you would be broke as Mike Jackson after the picks you’ve made the past three days. “I should have gone 2-1 last night”. Come on. I should have nailed Jessica Simpson last night, but she happens to live in a different state, and I happen to not know her. But I should have.

    Ha! Do you even watch NBA basketball?! Pacers have no PG?! You must not be serious! They were up the entire game till Diener went out. He’s a better PG than Tinsley. Have you even seen his assists to TO ratio? The guy can dish it like mad & has a very deadly shot. I’ll say it here, he’s the next Steve Nash, that’s how good this kid is.

    If Shaq plays Suns vs Warriors will be an all-washed-up game with Webber and Shaq vying for slowest player in the league.

    Vertman - Denier is not much of a shooter and is 3 inches shorter than Nash. He is a nice back-up but the Pacers are missing a starting PG.

    Speaking of memphis - Pat Riley seems likely to move Jason Williams expiring contract to a rebuilding team like Memphis, Seattle, or Minnesota….Mike Miller?

    Shoulda coulda woulda. Story of my life. I like today’s picks too, fingers crossed since you’re due for a win.

    I also like:
    Denver (+6) against Orlando
    New Orleans (-6.5) against the Bucks

    U should give up with ur predictions. Ur overall record must be 3-28. Come on man, and some of those games are just plain obvious ! Good luck man cause ur gonna need it.

    Under in the PHX GS game?? thats what they want you to think. Thats a for sure OVER. Take it to the bank. Sucka.

  7. the antoine says:

    hahah man you got wrecked on the philly game too.. i guess they were 14 points better than memphis not just 9.5.. good thing youre not a gambling man..

    worst column ever. do you pick winners by picking names out of a hat?

  9. finally says:

    2-1-1. ehhh.

    BUDDY, JUST STOP. Find a new job for the sake of those who still haven’t realized how horribly deficient your knowledge in basketball is!

    Lol @ the lame OT excuse. Overtime is part of basketball, is it not? Here’s what I PREDICT in the coming days:

    The Non-Gambler> I would’ve been 1-2 if Iverson hadn’t gone for 50..
    The Non-Gambler> I would’ve been 2-2 if Kobe hadn’t reinjured his finger…
    The Non-Gamber> Sorry guys, tough break. Who knew DHoward would score 25 and Gasol putting up 30? All unforseeable, tough break guys…
    The Non-Gamber> If the Lakers hit that miracle three at the end and forced a high scoring OT, I would’ve pulled out one… sorry guys
