Boston Celtics @ Los Angeles Lakers Sunday June 15, 2008 9:05 pm
At 9:05 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Lakers minus the points over Boston. After being on the Celtics to win the NBA Title the entire season, I switched to the Lakers at the start of this series (and feel not too good about that decision now). Still, if there ... read more

Los Angeles Lakers @ Boston Celtics Sunday June 8, 2008 9:00 pm
At 9:05 pm, on Sunday, our selection is on the LA Lakers over Boston. Currently, as of this writing, Boston is a 1-point favorite, and thus falls into a nasty 0-20 ATS playoff system that's 100% perfect since June 1993. What we want to do is fade any ...[systems and analysis ... read more

Los Angeles Lakers @ Boston Celtics Thursday June 5, 2008 9:00 pm
At 9:05 pm, on Thursday, our selection is on the Los Angeles Lakers over the Boston Celtics. Back in November, I bet on the Celtics (at 4-1 odds) to win the NBA Title. And I've liked Boston all the way through its Eastern Conference Finals win over Detroit -- UNTIL NOW. ... read more

Los Angeles Lakers @ San Antonio Spurs Tuesday May 27, 2008 9:00 pm
At 9 pm, our selection is on the LA Lakers plus the points over San Antonio. On Sunday, Phil Jackson's men played lackluster in a 103-84 loss to the Spurs. They missed lots of free throws, as well as some easy shots they usually make. Clearly, for a team that went 29-9 to end ... read more

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the Detroit Pistons minus the points over Boston in Game 4 of this Eastern Conference Finals, as home teams off a home game in which they failed to cover by nineteen or more points are a terrific 74-54 against the spread since 1990 vs. a foe off exactly ... read more

Los Angeles Lakers @ San Antonio Spurs Sunday May 25, 2008 8:30 pm
At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the San Antonio Spurs minus the points over Los Angeles. Gregg Popovich's crew arrives back in the Alamo City down two games to none to the Lakers, and the reason can be summed up in a nutshell: poor shooting. San Antonio shot just 37%, and made ... read more

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Boston Celtics plus the points over Cleveland. A lot is being made of the fact that the Celts are winless on the road in this year's post-season, going 0-3 at Atlanta, and losing Saturday at Cleveland. But before getting too down on Boston, ... read more

At 8 pm, on Sunday, our selection is on the New Orleans Hornets plus the points over San Antonio. I used the Spurs as a big 5* play on Thursday, and that game was my 5* NBA Game of the Year, so I was not surprised by the Spurs' 11-point win. I was in attendance at the AT & T Center ... read more
