  1. I split my two plays last night, but cashed again as I won my bigger play.

    Win:

    CLEVELAND (Average Play)

    Loss:

    UTAH (Small Play)

    Season Record: 107-83-2 (56.32%)

    4-5 Large Plays

    44-30-1 Average Plays

    59-48-1 Small Plays

    Tonight's Plays:

    MILWAUKEE -7 (Large Play)

    PHOENIX +7.5 (Average Play)

    NEW YORK +5.5 (Small Play)

    Milwaukee Write-Up:

    Milwaukee has played very well at home this year, going 15-5 SU & 12-7-1 ATS. Over the last month and a half, the Bucks have posted a 10-1 record SU at home, and an 8-2-1 record ATS as well (the only loss coming at the hands of the hottest team in the NBA right now, Detroit, this past Saturday). After losing to Orlando at TD WaterHouse on Monday, Milwaukee should be ready for some revenge when it comes home to face the Magic again. The Bucks have not lost three straight ATS since their 6 game ATS slide early in the season. On the other hand, Orlando comes into this game having lost eight straight on the road with a 2-6 ATS record in those eight games. The Magic have also struggled overall since Christmas Day, posting a 3-9 SU & 5-7 ATS record. They have covered three in a row, but I look for that trend to end tonight as Milwaukee looks to avenge the loss on Monday, and get back to their winning ways at home with a 13-15 point victory.

    Phoenix Write-Up:

    Phoenix comes into this game having won four in a row SU & ATS. Amare Stoudemire's return has provided the much needed lift this team needed. Although he is day-to-day with his ankle injury, the other guys, including Joe Johnson, have come together since the trade to make this team somewhat competitive. The Suns have finally come out of their December ATS slump, going 8-4 ATS in their last twelve games. They have covered four straight on the road and should be up for Denver tonight as they look for double revenge, including a 13 point loss at home to the Nuggets last Tuesday. On the other hand, Denver has cooled off a bit, posting a 6-7 SU & 5-8 ATS record over its last thirteen games, including a 2-5 ATS record at home in that span. After blowing out Utah last night on the road, the Nuggets must now come home to play the second of back-to-back games in which they are 3-5 ATS coming off a win and 1-2 ATS playing a road game followed by a home game the next night. I look for Phoenix to possibly knock off Denver on the road, but at least get the cover.

    I may have another play later, depending on a line not posted yet.

    GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!!! LET'S MAKE SOME MORE MONEY TONIGHT!!!

  2. OUCH!!!! :(

    0-3 yesterday and I still liked the plays. Didn't go broke thanks Mr. L.V.'s GOY...Thanks..

    Today a 5 star play. Manhattan -6 @ Fairfield. :D :D :D

    small play. Knicks + 5 1/2 @ Houston. Van Gundy vs Wilkens

    Van Gundy as Knick coach hate playing up tempo teams which is what NY is now. Have too many scoring options to not cover.

  6. I nailed Seton Hall last night, and my home teams favored by 6 or less, has cashed in at an awesome 4-1 lately. Again my play is on a home team favored by 6 or less.

    Take Louisville -5 over Cinncinnatti

    Cinncinnatti hasn't played this type of competition on the road.

    Louisville win win this by 10.

  9. First loss last night, lets try to change that tonight.

    NHL:

    San Jose (ML) over Phoenix

    SJ is hot right now winning 11 of last 15 and their last 3 wins against top teams in West (Van, Col, Det) and they are 11-9 on the road.

    Coyotes are still sliding since Boucher's SO run 0-2-2 and 7-8 at home.

    Another game to look at is Minnesota to beat a Chicago team that's terrible on the road.

  13. So I'm at 4-4 now for the week. Not so great. Two winners for tonight though.

    Villanova +9.5

    Still love the big east underdogs. Conference games are played tough, nova's not *that* bad and 9.5 points is too much.

    Duke -5

    maybe risky but Duke's been covering lately and my gut is this one is a 10+ point win.

    good luck to all.
