I'll try to get my Benfica writeup in tomorrow if I have time. I think they will be were I place my W8. Not entirely sure yet, but the pick has some potential. I'll have more once I look at everything.

February 19th (my birthday baby) Picks
Pick #1 Michigan State Spartans
This almost feels like a freebie. Purdue just kicked their guard Kelsey Barlow off the team, and suspended their forward/guard DJ Bird for this game. I'm really not sure there's much more to say. The Spartans look increadibly solid. I'll be placing a W6 on it.
Thats all for the 19th, I've got some birthday stuff I've got going on so I won't be posting anymore today.
Good Luck
Blog Record for February thus far- 11-3

February 18th Picks
Pick #1 Oral Roberts
Because this game starts in just 30 minutes, I don't really have a lot of time to go into detail. With them at home though, and having some pretty decent wins this season, I like Oral Roberts. Oral Roberts knocked off then-ranked #9 Xavier on road 64-42, and South Dakota State (a pretty solid team at 21-7). Oral Roberts also hasn't lost at home since their home opener to UTSA, as they are 15-1 this season at home. This one should be close, but I'll probably put my humble W3 on it since it's getting pretty late in the month. Good luck whatever you do.

Pick #2 Michigan Wolverines: 3-pointers made or tie
Michigan is 14-0 this season at home (Memphis and Duke were played at a neutral site), and averages about 8 3-pointers a game. There is also a bit of hype as to whether the Wolverines even need the 3-pointer prop on their side. Many believe they can win the game outright. I don't know if I would go that far, but I certainly think they can cover the pick. Also note that 3 of Ohio State's 4 losses have come on the road. I really like Michigan as well. Good luck Today.

February 16th Picks
Pick #1 LA Clippers
The Clippers (18-9) are 6-3 this month (9-3 since 1/26/12), with 7 of those 9 games being on the road. Portland (16-14) is 4-5 for February (5-7 since 1/25/12), with 5 of their 9 games being played at home. Overall, both teams matchup pretty equally, with LA ranking 5th in ppg, 16th in rebounds, 8th in assists and 18th in points allowed. Portland ranks 7th in points, 17th in rebounds, 9th in assists and 12th in points allowed. I give the edge to LA just for their recent production. Over the past few weeks, they have accumulated a significantly better record than Portland with most of those game being on the road. Most of Portland's games were at home. Expect a close game but I think the Clippers prevail.
Accuscore analysis
The Portland Trail Blazers are slight 50.2 percent favorites over the LA Clippers. The Clippers are shooting 46.8 percent from the field and the Trail Blazers are forecasted to shoot 44.8 percent. The rebounding battle is pretty even with the Clippers projected for 41.3 rebounds vs. 40.6 for the Trail Blazers. Turnovers are pretty even with the Clippers projected for 13.6 turnovers vs. 13.4 for the Trail Blazers. The Clippers are making 5.6 three pointers on 35.7 percent from three point range. The Trail Blazers are making 7.4 three pointers on 35.5 percent. KEY PLAYER STATISTICAL DATA---PTS: Blake Griffin 22.4, Jamal Crawford 17.5 ASSISTS: Chris Paul 9.3, Raymond Felton 7.1 REBOUNDS: Blake Griffin 10.5, Marcus Camby 11.1 SPORTS ODDS: Sportsbooks and handicappers have set the line at POR 2 TOTAL 188.5.
