Well, definitely not as hot in the NBA anymore. Bricked both over picks yesterday to go 0-2, and I'm now 4-6 in my last 10 NBA picks -- the first time in over a month where I'm worse than 6-4 in my last 10!
On the bright side, the Cubs won, and my extra inning magic continues. That runner-on-2nd shit is such an edge for the home team.
Something to possibly take note of: When NickyPipes and I agree on picks, they have an incredible record so far. Like almost no losses.
Here's an NBA moneyline pick -- something I had mostly abandoned (other than very even-moneyish types ones) as the season progressed, because they're a lot harder to hit once everything is more established.
Anyway, this one is pretty aggressive, so I don't blame you if you do the spread (+10) instead.
Houston +402 vs. Clippers (Leonard/Ibaka/Beverly out, House probable)
I think Houston is pulling off an upset tonight. Or at least I think it enough to go +400 on it.
Here's one totals pick, too:
Brooklyn vs. Boston - Under 227.5 (Harden out, Durant/Brown questionable, Walker/Fournier doubtful)
Oakland's 11-game winning streak ends today.
Don't fear Jorge Lopez's bad numbers (both 2021 and career).
It will happen. Trust me.
Baltimore +120 (J. Lopez) vs. Oakland (Irvin)
A rare early season MLB totals pick:
Minnesota (J. Happ) vs. Pittsburgh (Brubaker) - Under 8 -114

Frustrating night last night, had two 3-0 leads, barely split!
Pirates +140
Rangers +127
Rays -162
Diamondbacks +148
Thanks
Detroit (Mize) +100 vs. Kansas City (Minor)
It's hilarious that we as a society think everyone can be a dr, a lawyer, an engineer. Some people are just fucking stupid. Why can't we just accept that?
Can I get the terrible KC bullpen to cough up 4 runs please?
Also fucking Oakland is winning again. Will be 12 in a row if they beat Baltimore. They're up 3-1 right now in the 7th.
My Twins under looking good so far.
The big one though is the Rockets +402 pick against the Clips. They're hanging with 'em so far, down just 67-65 in the 3rd. Huge win if it hits.
Celtics under looking very good after 3.
You should probably live bet Detroit. You might have to lay negative odds as shitty as our pen is

88-81 Houston!
Boston under is a lock if no OT (though it's drawing closer and there's 72 seconds left).
But seriously... if Houston wins I won't complain about anything tonight.
Wow Houston just melting down. They were looking so good, then Clips take a TO, score 8 straight, and have the ball again.
I really thought I was going to get this when it was 88-81, but now it's pretty much done. Rockets looking horrible, and it's now 101-94, after a 20-6 run. Brutal.
I got absolutely PIPED last night. A complete bust, utter defeat! Trounced! I will not cower and shell, I will face it like a man, like a champion and come back and do it again. In some ways, getting completely wrecked for a night is refreshing. A cleansing fire. Come back anew. In some ways the emotion is completely pure and reminds me of 10 years ago, grinding poker hoping to get rich. Winning big, losing big. Staying up all night grinding cash games, driving home a thousands dollar richer or poorer as the sun comes up and my broke roommates sleep off a Natty Light hangover stopping for a bagel and coffee on Main Street. That’s the good life boys, those are the memories we are all chasing whether we know it or not
Not a good day yesterday for me, either. Just missed that Houston +402, won the other NBA game, but went 1-2 in MLB.
Here's an MLB pick:
Atlanta (Smyly) vs. Arizona (Bumgarner) - Under 9 -120
Another MLB, starting later:
Tampa Bay (Honeywell) -133 vs. Toronto (R. Ray)
Some NBA unders:
Philadelphia vs. Milwaukee - Under 227.5 (227 ok) (Embiid questionable, Simmons out)
Denver vs. Houston - Under 221 (Wall/Murray/Barton out, Wood doubtful)
Here's a moneyline, less of a longshot than yesterday:
Chicago +155 at Miami (Oladipo/LaVine/Dragic out, Williams probable)
If you want to do +4 instead, that's cool too
Almost took a huge dick up the ass with the 76ers game.
149 points after 3, a blowout game, it's a lock, right?
How about a 77 point 4th, for no good reason? Total ends up 226 and I barrrrrrrely cover in what was a no-doubter under most of the way.
In MLB, Atlanta game was postponed due to rain (not surprising, I suspected that might happen), and the Rays are sucking, down 3-1. I blame NickyPipes.
Other two NBA will get going later.
