    2-2 again...I thought I broke out of the mediocrity treadmill tonight, but the Nets absolutely mailed it in. They were just going through the motions out there.

    Yeah, it was a tough one. I was hoping one team or the other would win it in regulation, because of what could happen in ot...didn't think Toronto would win without Gay, but I thought they could cover the spread. You gotta put it behind you and move on. I did jump on the Cal Poly play, lol.

    Only NBA lean for tomorrow so far is LAC -2.5. I think the Clippers will be content to let RWB & KD get their points, but try and shut down everybody else. LAC has clear advantage in terms of depth and bench play. It'll be a close one.

    By the way, you're on fire with these college basketball picks. I'm gonna start tailing you. I not only took Cal Poly against the spread, but ml as well.

    I took Knicks plus 4.5 but it really seems like a trap. This line is about 2 points high in my opinion. I am not sure why they are having Miami be this big of a favorite. I fell for the trap though.

    Also, taking char +7.5 at Sac. I think this is a good spot for charlotte to steal a game and cover.

    Anyone think the O/U in the OKC/LAC game is the trap of the day? Right now 94% bet on over, yet the line barely moved.

    Yes sir. That's my only play today in the NBA. Taking under 204.5 for the game. Under 103 for the first half.

    And in college. I'm taking Washington St. (+7) versus Washington. In state rivalry game so it's going to be a close game. On paper, Washington's talent kills Washington St. I'm taking this as I believe it'll be close and I think Washington St. has a chance for an out right win. Gonna play it safe and take the points. Numbers match up so I'm making it a play.

    NBA

    OK/ Clippers under 204.5
    1st half under 103

    College

    Washington St.(+7) Gonna be a close game throughout. Take the points.

    Also take Marista 2nd half if you get a chance. Fairfield is a trap. Marista is going to win the game.

    Edit: And take Iona whatever 2nd half.

    Iona is looking like a terrible pick.

    Damn, Knicks completely got on their knees and blew that one in the 2nd half. I hate this saying, but feels like they were the 'right' side.

    You're probably right, but I don't have the balls to bet the under in a game with CP3/Durant/Westbrook lol.

    Glad I slept in and missed this one :)... looking forward to your next pick though.

    This is getting very intriguing. So BMWM3 is the man when it comes to gambling?

    Not sure what his record on NBA is, but when it comes to obscure college games, he's been near flawless.

    I had some computer problems earlier, but I was trying to follow everybody on my phone. Only two plays for me today: Sac-Cha over 207 and Was-Philly under 186.5. I may look at the Lakers' game depending on how these two go.

    Well, that didn't work out well. Should have gone with first half...
