January 11th Picks
Only one pick today I really felt very comfortable about
Streakhelp's Pick
Pick #1 Miami Heat-
Miami (8-2) has a lot of depth and finally appears to be playing more as a team compared to the Clippers (4-3). However, just last night they lost in overtime to Golden State (3-6) on the road. Aside from Golden State, Miami's only other loss at home to the Hawks (7-3). My biggest concern is whether Miami will be truly rested, and also if last night's game will provoke any backlash going into tonight. On the flip side, last night's loss may be a motivator going into tonight to make-up for the close loss. Miami's offense has been dominant so far, ranking 1st in points and 1st in assists, as well as 8th in rebounds. The Clippers have had a pretty good offense as well, ranking 8th in points and 10th in assists, but it just doesn't quite compete to the Heat's success. Hopefully Miami will be decently rested. However, even if they aren't, their depth will definitely help their case.
Good luck tonight whatever you do

January 10th Picks
Short posts tonight, but hopefully they help.
Pick #1 Oklahoma City-
The record I don't think lies, the Thunder (8-2) are just a better team than the Grizzlies (3-5) right now. Both teams do have injuries, but with Memphis missing Zach Randolph, I think Memphis is in a little worse shape. This isn't a completely easy pick, but Memphis isn't the same without Randolph.
Pick #2 Vanderbilt-
Vanderbilt is struggling a little compared to previous seasons, but I still think they are better than South Carolina. 2 of Vanderbilt's 4 losses came to then-ranked #11 Xavier and #6 Loiusville. Aside from losses to Kentucky, Ohio State and North Carolina, South Carolina has lost to pretty mediocre teams. Homecourt should give them some confidence, but I think Vandy prevails...
Good luck tonight whatever you do.

January 9th Picks
Streakhelp's Picks
Pick #1 Braga Win or Draw
Yes I'll be going with the trend today, Braga with the draw option is just to good. Braga goes into this game at 7-4-2 with a 12 goal difference, Beira Mar goes in at 4-4-5 with a goal difference of 3. Beira Mar has draw to some decent teams in their table, such as FC Porto and Lisbon. However, they have not beaten a team higher than them in the table aside from Academica. Braga has done significantly better this season and they have the draw option. Lastly, Beira Mar is 1-2-3 at home, with their only win to a lowly Feirense team. Braga looks much better especially with the draw option.
Pick #2 39 yards or fewer (LSU vs Alabama)
If you watched the previous match between these teams, LSU won 9-6 in a game that produced no touchdowns. The way things look right now, We may see similar results. Both teams have stellar defenses, and neither team has yet to exploit their opponents weakness. At 3-0, halfway through the second quarter, I think a low scoring affair is likely. Unless one of these teams figure out the others defense I would easily go 39 under. Good luck either way.
