NBA Sunday March 30th Free Selection

Split again the other night going 1-1 bringing our win percentage down to 61.11%. Still on a winning tear since the All-Star Break and we are looking to finish the regular season on a winning note.

Tonight, we go for the under in the New Orleans-Toronto game. The total is at 196.5. I look for a very slow-paced game here and with the Hornets defense playing the way it is, it should stay under that number..

Our two selections the other night split..we lost on the Chicago-Philly game in which both teams decided to shoot the lights out from the floor and from 3 point range. We are still hitting in over 61 percent of our plays and over the long run, this will produce a nice profit..

Tonight we like two games..Going with the under in the Hornets-Celtics game where the total is at 197. This looks very much like a possible preview to the NBA Finals this year if you ask me, although some would disagree. Look for the Celtics to clamp down big time on defense tonight. These teams met earlier this month in New Orleans as the last game of a long Western swing for Boston and the game went over, I think, because the Celtics were probably pretty worn out after completing the trifecta in Texas, which is tough to say the least.

The other total we like is the under on the Bobcats-Sonics game where the total is at 208.5. Charlotte is on a bit of a high after beating the Lakers in L.A. the other night and may be able to shut down the Sonics tonight and come out with another win. The Sonics are averaging about 97 points a game this year in the Western Conference where most teams are averaging well above 100. Charlotte's style and pace of play should keep this game under.

NBA Monday March 24th-Free Selection

Wow! Thought for sure we lost our bet last night on the under in the Warriors-Lakers game. The Warriors jumped all over the Lakers early running up and down the court like thoroughbreds. The opened up a 72-49 lead at the half and it looked like the game would fly over the total of 233. Guess Phil Jackson had a little chat with the Lakers at the half because they came out in the 3rd quarter and actually shut the Warriors down with tight defense, and climbed right back into the game, actually taking the lead momentarily in the fourth quarter. The Golden State team did prevail though in the end, and lucky for us, the game stayed under.

It's all about pace in the NBA..The Lakers were able to change the whole face of the game by slowing the Warriors down in the 3rd, but they were just too far back to sustain their run. Tonight these two do battle again in Oakland, but we will stay away from it as far as making a wager.

Going with the under in the Portland-Seattle game..The total is at 205 right now. These two teams have met 3 times so far this season and Portland should shut down Seattle's offense again. Take the under..

Blazers-Sonics Under 205

NBA Sunday March 23rd

Took an easy one last night, the Sixers-Nets were under throughout, bringing our record up to 29-19-2 for this year. Any time you can maintain a 60% or better win percentage, you make money. Remember, you only need to hit about 53% to break even, laying 11 to 10.

Tonight's card is limited, but we see an opportunity. The Lakers host the Golden State Warriors in the first of two in a home and home series. Read this morning that the Lakers plan to slow this game to their pace of play and that is their top priority in their strategy to win tonight. This total has been bet up from 230 to 233, but we like the under. Look for the Lakers to dominate this division rival and keep the score down or possibly lose this game as they cannot play into the Warriors trap of run and gun..

Warriors-Lakers Under 233

NBA Free Selection For Saturday, March 22nd

We split again last night..Our selection on the under in the Philly-Orlando game came down to the wire with the game just getting over the total. Checked the box score and found that the Magic shot 61% from 3 point range last night..14 of 23..Oh well.

With all the games tonight, we only like one..going with the under in the New Jersey-Philly game. Look for the 76ers to get back on track tonight at home and smother the Nets offense. The total is at 200.5 right now, so jump on the under.

NBA Free Selections For Friday March 21st

With the regular season winding down, we look for some teams to pick up the defensive intensity and to be resting starters late in games where they have a sizable lead. This can lead to some good plays on the under if you can recognize when this may happen.

Tonight, we have two under plays..the first is the Philly-Orlando game, where the total is at 206.5. The second play we like is under on the Toronto-Cleveland game and the total there is 191..Let's see if we can go 2 for 2 tonight.

76ers-Magic Under 206.5

Raptors-Cavs Under 191
