nba picks 1/21

CCx · #1 01-21-2005, 12:30 PM

miami -7.5 vs. indiana - bigtime revenge here after last year's playoffs when indiana sent miami packing - miami also is very good on home court, averaging over 100ppg - looking for BIG win for miami here tonite, double digits easily

other game i'm looking at for small bet:

GS +4 @ LAL (GS 8-1-2 ATS last 11 vs. LAL - LAL w/o Kobe, GS with Jason Richardson comeback)

I like the Warriors at LAL too. Warriors are 0-8 with J. Richardson. 12-18 with him. Folks might remember that LA beat Warriors on road, and think easy now at home, especially after TV home win vs. T-Wolfs. Maybe move to 4.5? D-Fish returns. J-Rich, no Kobe, he is the best athlete on court.

I see Nets PK at home. Kidd is playing well. Thoughts? Pythagorus at Sharps likes Toronto but he got it at 5 at Pinny, said get it fast it won't last...it was 4.5 when I checked it. This guy does seem to know his NBA.

I dont like Toronto tonight - even though Washington is without Hughes, you've got a pretty decent Washington team coming off a huge loss to SA, and a very mediocre Toronto team coming off a huge win against NYK. I'm staying off the game but if you held a gun to my head, I'd be on Washington tonight....

Sorry I have no opinion either way on BOS @ NJN...

Toronto has momentum against a sloppy Washington team and Golden State wants revenge. Toronto, Golden St on the money line.

This whole game went horribly wrong near the end of the first half with Miami attempting that off-the-back-board pass for a dunk on the breakaway, not realizing that Indiana had a man trailing and it led to a turnover. They pissed away an 8 point lead near halftime. Game's not over yet (80-77 IND with 5 to go), but Miami has really slopped it up. Way too many open baskets for Indiana. And Scot Pollard just said "fu<king bullsh!t" on national tv, that's fantastic. Think I'm losing this one but will cross fingers for late games [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

P.S. Shaq needs his old free throw coach back [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] - also wow, Miami is 12-26 from the stripe with 1:30 to go...gotta make the free ones!

17-36 from free throw line, that'll win you games
