BJ's Sugar B-Day Bash Bonanza Picks
These two risky as fuck picks are dedicated to our fellow analyst and friend Sugar, who is probably at a Klan meeting somewhere in North Carolina right now. He is also on fire with his NHL picks, so go look at those.PHI (+20) at IND (WINNER!)
I love taking the 76ers here. Indiana seems to have trouble, not only beating bad teams and putting them away, but beating mediocre at best teams! As their late season slump continues, look for the Pacers to let Phily hang around too long and eventually win by about 16. The Sixers really don't give a fuck at this point, but there are still dudes out their playing for contracts. You should know if this one is going to hit after 1 quarter.
OKC at CHI (OVER 194) (L)
Not only are the Bulls good at holding teams under their usual point totals, they tend to keep their own score low in grind it out contests. So this time, take the over. I know, the easiest thing to do is to take the under with the Bulls and cash out like you just robbed Ray Charles, but tonight is different. KD will be trying to prove that he can score on any defense in the league, and Chicago doesn't mess around on offense either. Look for them to score about 22 in the first quarter as the return of Russ West ruins all OKC offensive chemistry.
Bobcatz' Pickz
Stay tuned for a complete breakdown on who to throw your money on in this weekends tournament coming very soon by the staff at DirtiestPicks! Until then we have a couple of basketball picks to hold you over in the meantime. Also check out my work as a ghostwriter on Sugar's Go Puck Yourself hockey blog!
PHX (+3.5) at BKN (L)
The Suns are like the train from the children's classic "The Little Engine that Could", they just keep chugging along even though everyone has been saying they will hit the wall and fall short of their playoff race any day now. Well the return of Eric Bledsoe has been huge as he looks like he hasn't missed a beat from when he dominated earlier in the season. Couple that with the recent return to form of Gerald Green and you have a recipe for beating the Nets (also a recipe for soufflé, strangely enough). Look for the Suns to come out, push the tempo and shoot those motherfuckin lights out as they roll in this one easily winning by 10-15 points.
ATL at CHA (-3) (L)
The Catz have actually looked like a legitimate basketball team especially one that deserves to make the eastern conference playoffs. Their signing of Al Jefferson in the offseason looks brilliant as he has responded with a career year. Look for the combination of Kemba Walker and Big Al to rock and roll on the Hawks, leading to a comfortable seven point victory.
LAC (-4.5) at DEN (L)
This line seems a little too low to me, I don't know if Denver brought back Melo and Kiki Vanderweghe while I've been working this morning, but I would still take the (-4.5). The Clippers have been easily the hottest team in basketball over the last two months, and I see no indication that Denver is going to do anything about that. Look for a group effort with several players ending up in double digits as Lob City rolls on to another win and their quest for a championship.
