Well this is what rock bottom feels like. A horrendous 0-3 yesterday to drop my picks below .500 for the playoffs as I sit at 8-10-1 (44%). Hopefully it’s only up from here. So I understand if you’re reading now to know to go against me or sticking with me through the thin times. Get the picks from the Formulator here as it’s doing better than I am so far in the 2013 NBA Playoffs.
New York Knicks at Boston Celtics
I can’t see the Celtics packing it in tonight but they have to make an adjustment at half time to improve their second half performance. They’ve scored 48 points in 48 second half minutes in this series. That’s unbelievable. The Knicks will go for the knockout blow tonight. They know if they get up 3-0 that this series is pretty much over. I expect it to be a back and forth game but another low scoring contest.
The Play: Under 183.5
San Antonio Spurs at Los Angeles Lakers
The Lakers are a good home team and I think are coming together. I really think they’ve got a shot at winning this game tonight. I think Steve Nash will setup some easy hoops early for Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol and once they get going I think it keeps the crowd in the game. The Spurs can win anywhere though. I expect this to be decided in the final minute. Take the home team getting points.
The Play: Lakers +5
Denver Nuggets at Golden State Warriors
Golden State just shot lights out in game 2. I can’t see them shooting that well again. I think Denver will step up the defense and change their strategy some. I think you’ll see more of Kenneth Faried tonight and that’ll help the Nuggets a lot. This is a toss up game so I’d stay away from the sides and play the total. People will expect an over and I think the number is inflated.
The Play: Under 212
Best of luck tonight whether you’re going with me or against me! Thanks for reading.
