NBA Picks for Tues, May 15
I made sure to get that bitch in last night, and then I was f'n this and f'n that all night until the final 30 seconds when I knew it was a winner. I don't know how the Spurs let that one slip away, but I was due for one like that. I was very impressed with the way the Suns played down the stretch. They actually played defense. We have a series now. I still think the Spurs win, but it's too bad Phoenix will most likely lose Stoudamire and Diaw for Game 5. That's a shame. We now venture toward the next day:
Play:
DETROIT -7 (yes, I'm rolling on the Pistons to close this thing out in emphatic fashion; they were dominated in every possible way in Game 4, and it's now time to take care of business; Detroit was never really in that game, but I expected Chicago to come out strong in at least one game; that was it; one important stat that I noticed, though, was the Bulls still turning the ball over 18 times; not good; the Bulls can get the fishing gear out now)
ML Plays:
DETROIT -340 (I'm laying the wood because they are not letting this series go any longer)
Opinion:
UTAH -4.5 (I think it's over for the Showers; they have no answer for Boozer; they continue to get dominated on the boards; I'll stay away, though, because if Golden State gets hot behind the arc, this could be another burner)
phball, I forgot to give you the props yesterday on your stellar Mother's Day plays! Nice job, bro!

All right, on a 0-3 slide (0-2 Momma's Day and 0-1 yesterday)
I'll pull a small rant. I lose the over on Phoenix when Mr. Clutch Steve nash misses 2 free throws in the final 30 seconds and San antonio can't hit the broad side of a barn. Lost that mofo but let's move on.
NBA ROUND 1: 14-11-1 ATS
NBA Round 2: 6-6 ATS
Tonight:
Roll with me on Detroit over 182. The bulls know they have to score to have a chance. They tried playing a defense first philosiphy in Games 1-3 and it didn't work. They then get more aggressive with secondary cut guys Deng and Wallace that made the Detroit defense look human. I see more of the same and a bulls cover, but I won't go against the Pistons at home in a go for the throat game. The safe play to me is the over as the Bulls are desperate and the Pistons will be lighting the 3 lamp all night.
PISTONS/BULLS OVER 182..This is a big play for me.
Roll with me on G State +4 1/2. Our wonder boys from the West coast will live to fight again. I like the ML, but I'm playing the points to be safe.
G STATE +4 1/2
Good luck tonight.
