Last night: 3-0
What an awesome night!! If you know me, you know I love getting points in NBA games. Last night I went 3-0 betting on a bunch of garbage teams that all ended up not only covering but outright winning. Tonight I get the opportunity to actually get points on three teams that are good!! Yes, I included the Knicks, come off it. But back to the Raptors for a second. This team is solid. Toronto has been the same team now for 4 or 5 seasons. They play good quality team ball, everyone knows their role and they win basketball games. This year they overpaid for Demarreeeeeeee Carroll aka the Junkyard Dawg, but he's definitely helped their overall team defense. Sure Hustle Westbrook and KD are stupid ridiculous basketball players, but they can have an off night once in a while right??
Nutz Notez: I like the matchups in this game. Lowry and Demarre should slow the insanity of Westbrook and Durant down just enough to let the supporting talent win this one.
NYK +10.5 vs CLE
This might be the last time I bet on the Knicks this season. I took them getting 9 the other night against the Spurs just to watch the Spurs harass the hell out of Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks into a double digit loss. Tonight against the Cavs I expect a different outcome though. Melo loves to go up against LeBron and has always tried to go 110% against the King even back in their high school days. Throw in that JR Smiff is out for the Cavs and I think the Knicks have just enough to at least get the cover in this one.
Nutz Notez: I guess I'll never understand how the Cavs continue to win with such a terrible, injured supporting cast. The Knicks aren't much better but you can always bet on Melo to bring it against Bron. Oh and Porzingis is good enough to play 20 mpg so that's a start.
LAC +7.5 vs GS
By far my favorite line of the season so far. It opened at 9 last night and I will gladly still take it at 7.5 today. I love this Clippers team. They are crazy deep, Lance Stephenson and Josh Smith are two former starters playing extremely well of the bench and you know what you're getting from the big three of Paul, Jordan and Griffin. Sure the Warriors are great and will most likely represent the West come Finals time, but they aren't going 82-0. Look for the Clippers to shock the world and win this game outright.

Nutz Notez: How long can the Warriors keep this up? Dirty Picks' former NHL writer B Sugz McNasty almost had a heart attack at the thought of getting against Stephy Curry! At some point these guys won't cover and tonight they have a worth adversary. The Clips can match depth and star power so this one should be close.
