Boston @ Miami -9
Both teams have had a day of rest...
I see Miami winning this in any instance, and I predict more likely than not they will get crushed, with Miami making the spread.
I don't feel good on any of the other games... would like to see your guys' picks

YTD: 17-15-1 or 17-14-1 (i need to get excel)

Good Luck, I don't have any NBA Picks tonight.

I am not keeping a runing total of posted picks, as I have not been posting picks, so take these with a grain of salt. I also don't like that I have a play in each of the 3 games tonight, but I found things I liked a lot in each one.

1. Celtics/Heat under 207.5 -- Celtics playing a lower scoring brand of ball since the trade. Very few of their games have crossed this number since then. I like this game at something like 105-95.

2. Sixers/Seattle over 207.5 -- Seems like a low number for a Seattle game against a team that plays no defense either. Maybe spooked by the fact that Sixers didn't break 100 last (with no Iverson) against Toronto, but that was due to a 12-point 4th quarter which I'm willing to call a fluke. I see this in the high 210's irrespective of whether Iverson plays.

3. GS -5.5 over Minn -- 5th in 7 nights on the road for a bad Minn team that is prone to 4th quarter collapses. GS hasn't played in 5 nights, and beat this team a month ago by more than 20. Minny might keep it close in the first half but I am betting that the fall apart in the second.

Hope this works out for you Guys but maybe Celtics were storing up the points they did not score last game for this one. 34-22 Celts 1:30 left in 4th. Did not bet it but watching the game.

3/4 of a unit on T-Wolves +8 -111 (Pinnacle)
To many points for GS to give.

Hmm I think Pinnacle let me play this even though the game already started (which I didn’t know). About 1 min after entering the wager and making post the game came on TV w/ 2 min gone by.

3/4 unit Seattle/Philly 2nd Half Ov100 -116. (Its up to -121 now).

That will be nice. What time did you get it at 5.5? That’s what it was at when I looked earlier. I noticed covers had the game listed as delayed and the line at 7 so I went to see if a line was still up about 10:50PM and found it at 8.
