Default Re: Runner\'s ugly NBA picks, week 3

I think your Mil pick is solid, and I expect them to get many more than 11 FT attempts this time. Hope you turn it around, Runner, you were doing quite well at the start of the season!

I'm no guru, but one thing I've noticed is that the big underdog teams where a horrible team is facing a great team don't seem to do well when on the great team's home court. Even getting double digit points, the dogs are too likely to get blown out. If you can get double digit points on the road for the fav and on the dog's home court, that's a different story, but it's very hard to get double digits there.

I think your dogs are much better when it's a decent team getting a fair number of points against a little bit better decent team, such as the Mil pick tonight. Sure, they might still get blown out, but there's a much better chance of it being competitive, so it's a better pool to pick your spots from.
