Bob's Sunday Picks

CHI (-3) at LAL

     Need to borrow twenty bucks? Go fuck yourself. Need some Sunday bball picks to stack your reserves and have them looking like Donald Duck's vault? I got you. The hometown of the Showtime series "Shameless" (Sundays 9 o'clock) gets the bonanza started. CHI-tizzy's athletic defense, led by DPOY candidate, Joakim Noah is dominant. Couple that with the recent struggles of the Lakers to score and keep people on the court (Meeks, Swaggy P, Pau Gasol, and Kobe). Making this +3 for the home team an easy cover, look for the bulls to win by at least ten, if not fifteen or twenty. As the saying goes, like rape allegations, defense travels. (WINNER!)

NO (+4.5) at BKN

        Welcome to the Anthony Davis coming out party, and no he's not announcing he's the next Jason Collins. Fresh off his All-Star promotion, look for the brow to continue his dominant start (20ppg, 10 reb, and 3.3blocks!!) against the Nets who have been playing better in the past month but, will struggle in Brooklyn today against the Pelicans. The only thing that could ruin this cover is if Austin "Why am I still on the team" Rivers plays more than 20 minutes and sabotages the game. (L)

IND at ORL (+8)

   The Magic, fresh off their buzzer beater win at home against OKC,  look to complete a homestand against two of the toughest teams in the league. Look for Tobias Harris and A-Aron Afflalo to keep things close with Indy. The Pacers tend to mail it in against lower caliber teams and this is a prime case after their exhausting win over Portland a few days ago. Indy will most likely win this game, but Orlando should be able to cover the +8 at home. (WINNER!)

PHI (+16) at LAC

No analysis here, just think that line is way too high for the return of CP3. Don't get me wrong CPeezy (as hes known in some circles) is one of the best players in the NBA and his return will help LAC in the long run, but tonight could have a little bit of an adjustment period to it, as they find their groove. Once again expect LAC to win, but covering (-16) to an underrated 76ers team isn't happening.

Good luck out there, and remember, SHAMELESS on Showtime Sundays at 9ET. (L)
