We have 4 NBA picks for tonight.

Los Angeles Lakers-Philadelphia 76ers +4.5 LAKERS at odds 1.89
Phoenix Suns-Atlanta Hawks -7 SUNS at odds 1.83
San Antonio Spurs-Memphis Grizzlies +1 GRIZZLIES at odds 1.93


and:

Oklahoma City Thunder-Portland Trailblazers +1.5 PORTLAND at odds 1.90

The Portland Trailblazers are coming from a big win at home against the Denver Nuggets, Nicolas Batum was onfire and shoot 9 three-pointers in that 117:97 win.
The Oklahoma City Thunder are coming from a loss on the road against the San Antonio Spurs by 96:107.

The Portland Trailblazers are a very good home team, it’s very dificult for the opponents to win in the Rose Garden and in 12 games this season Portland just lost one game at home. They are very confident playing at home, LaMarcus Aldridge are making a impressive season and so Gerald Wallace, Marcus Camby are a very strong defender and very good on the boards, he wins a lot of very importants rebounds during the game and Portland bench are very good too, Jamal Crawford and Nicolas Batum are really good outside shooters and can make easy three pointers.

Oklahoma City Thunder have the best Western Conference record and they are a very good team but lately they are struggling a bit. Kevin Durant are one of the best players in the NBA with an impresive jump shoot but in the history he has a lots of trouble to make his game against Portland. Westbrook is a very talented player but maybe not the smartest one, he makes a lot of turnovers who give easy points to their opponents and against Portland if he makes this mistakes they will suffer a lots of points after the turnovers. For me the Oklahoma City are struggling a bit lately because Perkins are not playing good, he numbers and he presence on the game is almost nothing lately and so I think that LaMarcus will have a nice game against the Thunder defense tonight. On the bench they have a great player James Harden who makes a lots of points and make nice plays, but since Maynor our out for the season their bench are not producing like they will who is normal, because Maynor is a talented guy who can make jump shots and easy layups with his speed.

Playing at home in the Rose Garden who Portland is very good because of the support of their fans I think that tonight they will win this one and they are for me in this matchup the favorites and not the slim underdog, in 12 games they won 11 and at home they are very confident in their plays so pick here the Portland Trailblazers +1,5.

Cheers

So did you quit school, rob a bank and hire an NBA expert?
Btw are you just copy pasting these? Or are you spamming these write ups across multiple forums?

Yes, that quote means something to me. I have been posting at other forums too, but how do you see that as spamming 2+2?

I have been reading 2+2 for a long time now, and also use it for other purposes. Whats the problem with me posting my picks in here, as well as a preview? Have you thought about that somebody may have found it usefull to read the preview.

And no i did not quit school, rob a bank and hired an expert.

Nice day to you sir!

I'm interested in doing something like this so I'll post my guesses for tomorrow's games:


Jazz@ Pacers (Pacers -6) (Pacers -9 currently)

Bobcats@ Celtics (Celtics -9) (Celtics -14 currently)

Cavaliers@Heat (Heat -12) (Heat -13.5 currently)

Kings@Timberwolves (T Wolves -7.5) (T Wolves -6.5 currently)

Suns@Bucks (Bucks -4) (Bucks -7.5 currently)

Thunder@ Warriors (Thunder -2) (Thunder -2.5 currently)
Not bad, on some. Some are pretty far off.

So if I had faith in my handicapping abilities I should be betting

Bobcats +14
Suns +7.5
Jazz +9

I guess I'll throw 1u each on these and see what happens.

The jazz historically tend to struggle on the road and if they play bad in NY tonight I can see that line being 8 or 9 tomorrow and I think your thunder line might be a little low, I know the warriors are a pretty good home team but if I can get -2 for the thunder I'll prob load up on it- I think they match up really well against golden state and I would guess the line will be somewhere around -4
I'm not saying you are right or wrong, but I am saying now is your chance to load up as they are -2.5

Hey guys, I was looking at NBA props just now and noticed that DeMarcus Cousins over 11.5 rebounds -109 is available on Pinny. He averages 11.6 on the season, and Kevin Love is suspended for this game, so he should have an even better chance of having a good night on the boards. What's the catch here? I don't normally bet props, so idk wtf I'm doing obv.

I'm going to stick with my 'guessing what the line will be tomorrow' game if anyone wants to join.

I just shipped my bet on the Jazz thinking they should be +6 and they were +9 so maybe I can get lucky and show some profit doing this.

Here are my guesses:

Clippers@ Cavaliers (Clippers -5.5)

Heat@ Magic (Heat -6)

Spurs@ 76ers (76ers -2)

Knicks@ Wizards (Knicks -8.5)

Bucks@ Raptors (Raptors -1)

Pacers@ Hawks (Hawks -1.5)

Pistons@ Nets (Nets -2)

Bulls@ Hornets (Bulls -10)

Timberwolves@ Grizzlies (Grizzlies -4.5)

Mavericks@ Nuggets (Nuggets -3)

Rockets@ Trailblazers (Trailblazers -6.5)

Not a ton of thought put into these, but if I feel good about one that is a lot different than the actual line I will bet it.

Played 25 minutes (season avg is 29) because of foul trouble and got 11 boards. Was probably a pretty good bet, just couldn't quite get there.

Man, I love to see the Heat win. Esp being a casual Bulls fan.

I forgot to post itt, but I had a healthy bet on the Knicks today. Especially seeing as how I thought they would be -9 and they were +1.5 LOLOL

LIN, tho

I forgot to post what I think the spreads will be tomorrow, oh well

Lakers are +3.5 tomorrow, I don't get it. That seems like good value, but I guess is probably a trap. I'll wait and see what happens
