    I honestly feel like this week is a total crapshoot.

    That’s what I said the last 3 weeks and luckily I took my own advice. Turns out all 4 weeks have been essentially impossible ( actually literally impossible).I just feel like a top guy this week is finally coming. I am going with Sheffler and praying to the Lord above that this fucking guy can finally drop some putts.

    The last truly clutch round of putting was last year Sunday round at the WM. His proximity wasn’t great and the putter bailed him out. I may be a week early on him but I’m hoping to see some 8-15 footers drop. Rory’s Dubai win was a bit of an illusion cause Cam Young did another bed shit for the ages on the weekend. Was -13 through Friday. Rory won the tournament at -14.

    Viktor was a bit off at Hero. Cantlay been struggling as the tournament progresses (his back I think is a problem). X is the other top guy I would be tempted to bet.

    I got Theegala winning at some point soon.

    For this particular weekend if I am going at the top of the ticket I am taking Speith. He has a history that lines up on Pebble.

    Homa is an interesting choice. He needs pebble to make a California slam possible. I see nothing on form that tells me he will be there other than this is in the state of CA.

    For a long shot…… going with our old freind Kurt K at 125-1

    Well Clippers/Wash didn't really deserve to win for me. Broke out to 72 points in a close game after 1Q. Fortunately the scoring was fairly weak after that -- 54 in the 2nd, 59 in the 3rd, and most importantly 49 in the 4th. Finished with 234 points. Game wasn't close at end so that also helped, starters came out and no last minute fouling.

    The unlikely late fouling and/or OT can make unders more attractive in the NBA in games with a big spread (in this case 10.5). That's of course baked into the line, but it's something to consider when handicapping totals.

    But I won't take credit here because 1) it won by 1.5, 2) it was on pace to lose most of the way, 3) i posted it so late nobody could bet it except live.

    The other game, Nuggets/Thunder, is almost certain to win if no OT, as it's 150 points with 11 min left.

    People are clearly hungry for winning NBA picks during this sports blackout. (NHL NFL).

    the right one

    I tried giving a NBA fuck during the blackout.

    Celtics bs Lakers. Lotsa history and you expect a decent game if not an outright battle.



    LeBron and Anthony Davis bagged out. A local news announcer said on air Celtics should refund the expensive tickets. The crew looked on aghast that he said thet out loud.

    The two loafers sat on the bench in expertly coordinated street wear. Yucking it up. How do fans not get upset?

    However, Celtics cared even less. Very talented players but Celtics get by on athleticism not effort (defense). They didn’t care. Lotta social media shots of 4 Celtics flat footed under the net on defense.

    I actually watched quite a bit. Lakers played better without LeBron and AD than with according to announcers.

    Too many regular season games

    I’m now cured of NBA for a long while.

    Nice run tho, Druff.

    Ask and ye shall receive.

    Actually yesterday's "bad" loss was just a 1.5 point loss in regulation, and then OT added the rest. So wasn't a terrible pick, actually.

    Boston vs Memphis - Under 219
    Minnesota vs Houston - Over 220.5 (Bovada)
    Toronto at Oklahoma City - Over 238.5

    Just bet all 3 of Druffs games for today

    I won 2 NBA games this week that he posted, missed the others

    Druff is the best total bettor I have come across, including all sports in this, just have seen him consistently pick good spots that I would not think of as I am usually trying to be the game on TV so I can have fun and relax, not trying to be Steve Stevens
