February 14th Picks

Pick #1 Braga win- No writeup (just a pick that looks pretty promising to me. Braga is much better than Besiktas and they are at home)

Pick #2 LA Lakers

    The Lakers are just to good at home for me to confidently go against them. Also, the Hawks havn't been themselves lately. This month they are just 2-4, with 5 of those 6 games being at home. LA is 3-3, but has been on the road all of February, so being at home tonight should hopefully help them going into this game. The Lakers are 11-2 playing at home with the Hawks at 9-5 on the road. The Lakers are pretty big favorites in the public eye. Here is some stuff I dug up on accuscore...


"The LA Lakers are solid 70.1 percent favorites over the Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks are shooting 41.1 percent from the field and the Lakers are forecasted to shoot 44 percent. The Lakers have the rebounding advantage at 45.3 to 39.7. Turnovers are pretty even with the Hawks projected for 13.8 turnovers vs. 13.9 for the Lakers. The Hawks are making 5.4 three pointers on 33.2 percent from three point range. The Lakers are making 5.5 three pointers on 33 percent.

February 13th Picks

Pick #1 Kansas Jayhawks


    This is probably the best pick for tonight I think. This one may not be a lopsided as these teams last meeting (Jayhawks won 67-49), but Kansas should have them. With Kansas (20-5) healthy and being a very well rounded team, KSU (17-7) will have their hands full tonight. Lucky for them they will have a home crowd helping them out. KSU has only lost three times at home this season, however I just don't think playing at home will be enough to pull it out. This probably won't be a runaway for Kansas, but Kansas looks good to me. Good luck tonight.

Picks for tomorrow in progress

February 12th Picks

Pick #1 Memphis Grizzlies

   
        Memphis at home. That would be the main reason. The other reason would be the Jazz's 2-7 road record. Memphis (14-13) is 9-4 at home so far this season, hosting Utah (13-12). The Jazz have a pretty good offense (10th in points, 15th in assists), however I think the Grizzlies defense should counter pretty well with a defense allowing 91.7 points a game (8th in NBA). These teams match up pretty well overall,  however, Utah has been cold so far this month. Winning just 1 out of their last 6 games, and losing their last three games going into Memphis. Memphis hasn't exactly been hot lately, but they certainly havn't been cold either. They are 3-3 so far for February, not to mention winning thier last two home games on Wednesday and Friday to the Timberwolves and the Pacers.
         I don't usually look at odds for games on SFTC, however Memphis is a 6.5 point favorite, so oddsmakers seem to like them as well. Memphis looks pretty good to me right now with them performing well at home, and Utah performing poorly on the road. Good luck whatever you do.
