Game: Golden State Warriors @ Portland Trailblazers - Wednesday December 12, 2007 10:00 pm
Pick: 5 units (Normal) ATS: Golden State Warriors -5 (-109)

Portland leading scorer LaMarcus Aldridge will miss at least one week as a result of his right foot. ALdridge is averaging more than 18 points and is leading the Blazers in rebounds(7.7) and blocks(1.2) this season. The Blazers have covered the spread twice in their last six outings. They have also covered just once in their last eight meetings with the high-scoring Warriors.

Pro Basketball Picks
12/12/2007
6:00:00 PM CHARLOTTE BOBCATS(-5.5)
over Los Angeles Clippers
1* (regular play) Charlotte Bobcats (-) vs Los Angeles Clippers @ 7 ET - The way we handicap, this is a perfect situation for Charlotte. The Bobcats are coming off of an ugly road loss against one of the best teams in the league. That game was on Sunday. As for the Clippers, they are coming off of an upset win at New Jersey last night. That was just the second win for the Clippers in their last ten games. Even though the Bobcats have also been struggling this one sets up very well for them. The Clippers are off of a rare win and playing in a back to back situation. The Bobcats are fired up about bouncing back from a loss and they are also well rested as they have not played since Sunday. In terms of match-ups on the floor, the Clippers are in trouble here. Already without Elton Brand, Shaun Livingston, and Sam Cassell, the Clips saw Quinton Ross take a bad fall in last night's game and he is likely to miss some time now. This further weakens the depth of the Clippers right now. One of the key players for the Clips this season has been Chris Kaman. However, the big man will be tested by Emeka Okafor tonight and that match-up favors the Bobcats. Jason Richardson has added some offensive firepower for Charlotte this season and, certainly, leading scorer Gerald Wallace is going to bounce back from a game in which he scored just three points. The Bobcats had lost seven straight before beating Cleveland on Saturday. They then played the second part of that back to back situation at Detroit on Sunday and got hammered. Coincidentally, the Clippers had also been going through a rough stretch, losing 8 of 9, before last night's win at New Jersey. Now, on the road for the second night of a back to back we see the same thing happening to the Clippers that happened to Charlotte in Detroit on Sunday! This game will turn into a blowout and the odds maker is not "off" at all when the line was set at the Bobcats -5.5 for this game. It may seem hard to lay the points with a 7-12 team but keep in mind that the Bobcats are a respectable 6-5 at home and all the edges are going their way in this one. One final motivational note: the Bobcats are 0-6 in their history against the Clippers. That will most certainly add fuel to their fire tonight. Play Charlotte minus the points as a regular selection.


Pro Hockey Picks
12/12/2007
9:00:00 PM OVER 5 GOALS(5) ANAHEIM MIGHTY DUCKS
-vs- Vancouver Canucks
1* (regular play) OVER the total in Anaheim vs Vancouver @ 10 ET - Similar to baseball, where a total of 7 or 9 carries extra value, we love going over 5 goals in NHL games when the situation is properly set up. In MLB, a 3-3 game with a total of 7 guarantees you are getting no worse than a push as the game, of course, can't end tied. It's the same with a 4-4 MLB game and a total of 9. As for the NHL, we need just two goals from each team to guarantee that we will do no worse than a push when playing over the total of 5 on the ice! In this case, there is every reason to believe that we should see a good number of pucks finding the back of the net in Anaheim tonight. The Canucks #1 goalie, Roberto Luongo, is being bothered by a rib cage injury. We don't expect him to get the starting nod tonight and, in fact, the Canucks called up a goalie, Drew MacIntyre to help back up goalie Curtis Sanford while Luongo recovers. Sanford is a decent goalie but he is no Luongo and we expect the Ducks to put plenty of pressure on him tonight. Anaheim is playing resurgent hockey right now as the news of Scott Neidermayer's imminent retun has triggered new energy on the club. The Ducks have won three of their last four games and there has been an average of 6.5 goals scored per contest. As for the Canucks, they have earned at least a point in three of their last four games and at least five goals have been scored in three of those four games! The Canucks offense has managed just three goals combined in their last two games but that means an extra emphasis on that end of the ice for tonight's game. Vancouver already knocked off the Ducks last month in a 4-0 shutout win. That was some measure of revenge for the Canucks playoff ouster at the hands of the Ducks last season. Needless to say, the Ducks are now looking for revenge from that ugly shutout loss at Vancouver. There is a lot of intensity on both sides when these teams meet because of their past history. That could mean a chippy game with some extra penalty calls leading to power play opportunities on both sides. Note that Ducks goalie J-S Giguere has allowed 3 goals or more in 5 of his last 7 games. With his recent struggles, and the Canucks forced to use a back-up netminder, this one should easily find it's way over the total. Play OVER the total in Anaheim as a regular selection.

BLACK MAGIC SPORTS - I will be back between 6:00 and 7:00 tonight with the rest of what I will have which includes (PPP, Maingate (IF they have a play), Dr Bob, California Sports, Spreitzer, Kelso, Preferred, Gameday, Underdog, JB Sports, ASA, Billy Coleman) - Please note, I only post plays that are available under their rating system, I certainly don't bother with their opinions nor do I take the time to look for it.

NBA:



5 Unit Black Magic NBA Letdown GOTM on Portland Trail Blazers +5.5



The Portland Trail Blazers catch the Golden State Warriors in a big letdown spot Wednesday. Golden State is coming off their win over San Antonio last night while the Blazers just beat up on Utah. The Warriors won?t be up for this contest after their huge win over the defending champs. Portland is one of the most underrated teams in all of the NBA. The Blazers have now won 4 straight games and this young, talented squad is soaring in confidence right now. Portland is 7-3 straight up at home this season. Portland is 17-5 ATS in their last 22 games as a home underdog. Portland is 16-5 ATS in home games when playing against a team with a winning record over the last 2 seasons. Cash in with Portland as the underdog.



3 Unit Sharp Play on New Orleans Hornets +8.5



The Hornets will post a repeat performance from their earlier meeting with the Denver Nuggets this season. New Orleans got the best of Denver in a 93-88 upset in Colorado back in November. The Hornets have won 4 out of their last 5 games overall. The Hornets are 8-2 on the road this season which is even better than their home record. Going on the road doesn?t phase New Orleans so don?t be shocked when they come out on top tonight in Denver again. The Hornets are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games as a road underdog. The Nuggets are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. Denver has really struggled with some of the best teams in the league. Cash in with New Orleans as the underdog.



NCAA Basketball:



3 Unit Sharp Play on Santa Clara -5



We will play on the home favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points in this rivalry, an excellent shooting team making greater than 52% on the season, and a dominant rebounding team outrebounding opponents by 7 or more boards per game. This System is 31-9 with a 78% winning ratio over the last 10 seasons. Santa Clara is absolutely dominating opponents this season. Pacific is coming off an 18-point loss at home as a 13-point favorite against Pepperdine. Their true colors showed in that match-up and they cannot compete in this big road game. Santa Clara beat Pacific by 18 points in their last meeting a year ago. Santa Clara is 19-7 ATS in their last 26 games as a home favorite of 3.5 to 6 points. Cash in with Santa Clara as the favorite.

Eddie's Analysis - This guy won like 13 in a row 5* plays and now has lost his last 2. Granted, during that winning streak, his 5* plays seemed nutty (Clippers twice, Ball St) but I dunno. If I play any of this, it will be the 5* for a very small amount as his Pacers pick was my only loss last night.


Eddie,

Thanks in advance for ANY and ALL ARTHUR RALPH plays if you happen to get them.

BTW their free play today is Boston College.

Thanks again!:00hour

Alan Boston

winner last night
U mass is playing much faster than years past. Last years inside game is gone, so COach Ford has gone to his roots and is going with a pressing helter, skelter game. Young Bc saw Mds press occasionally, but will see nothing like this. Md game was a huge win for Bc and totally respect Al Skinner, who ALWAYS gets team to overachieve. However they may be outmanned, out energied and very uncomfortable vs Unrelenting U Mass quickness. Umass plus 4.5


Cal Poly is been blown out of both recent road efforts. Earlier in the year, they hung in well at No Iowa and won at SO utah. Recent blowouts have caused a huge overreaction in line. This team was only getting 10.5 from very good ASU, now are getting 8 from so so Portland St. Portland St does get 2 players eligible this evening, but typically it takes a few games for new players to flow into game situations. Cal poly off 2 embarrassmants should have good energy tonight and Portland st poured their heart and soul into close loss to Wash St. Cal poly plus 8 or 7.5 if you must.

Others I bet for less are
Princeton plus 13.5
Depaul plus 4
and pacific plus 5.5.

Game: Orlando Magic @ Milwaukee Bucks - Wednesday December 12, 2007 8:00 pm
Detail: IC'S WEDNESDAY NBA PLAY OF THE DAY!
Pick: 3 units (Play of the Day) TOTAL: Over 203 (-108)
The Magic are coming off their worst shooting performance of 2007 as they shot around 38% and chucked up 30, 3-point shots only to make a 1/3rd of them. This team has lost back to back games for the first time this season showing this team's consistency and are 11-2 on the road straight up for a reason and will look to get back on track at Milwaukee. Milwaukee comes off a frustrating road trip where they lost the final 4 ballgames including a close losses to the Blazers and Kings and they are glad to be back home and will look to get revenge on a Magic team that blew them out in the first game of the season. The over is 6-1 in the last 7 meetings in Milwaukee between these 2 teams and the over is 7-1 when the Bucks play a team with a winning record of 60% or more meaning that they show up against the better teams - in particularly at home

Game: Golden State Warriors @ Portland Trailblazers - Wednesday December 12, 2007 10:00 pm
Pick: 3 units (Normal) TOTAL: Under 208.5 (-106)
3 total plays today.
Basketball 2007: 49-27 (62%)
NBA 2007: 40-19 (66%)
27 of 35 NBA Winners (75%) (18 of 24 Winners)
This is a trend that I have noted for a while and I believe it has some worth today. The Warriors have played under on the road (as the oddsmakers are wary of this team's offensive prowess obviously) 4 of their last 5 games. The Blazers held the most potent offense in the NBA yesterday to less than 90 points. This says a lot. The Blazers held a healthy Utah team, who was at home, who was coming off 3 straight road losses as they returned home to less than 90 points. That says a lot about this team's ability to play defense which is a trademark of Nate McMillan. The total on this g ame has also steadily been coming down as well which gives more merit to this play as the under is not a public play. Keep in mind the under is 7-1 in the last 8 meetings between these 2 teams.

Game: Chicago Bulls @ Indiana Pacers - Wednesday December 12, 2007 7:00 pm
Pick: 3 units (Normal) TOTAL: Over 198.5 (-109)
3 total picks today.
Basketball 2007: 49-27 (62%)
NBA 2007: 40-19 (66%)
27 of 35 NBA Winners (75%) (18 of 24 Winners)
The Bulls are continuing to score points in a flurry as I have mentioned in the last week or so they did as this team impressively scored 98 points at Detroit in their outright win, Ben Gordon has been taking over this team as far as scoring is concerned wanting to get off to a fast start and his teammates are chipping in as well. Ben Wallace might not play in this game which allows for less defense as well on the part of the Bulls, but more importantly, the Pacers come off a frustrating loss to Cleveland where they were essentially run out of the building by the Cavs. The Pacers have played the over in the last few games and in particular the last 5 games at home and they have scored over a 100 points in their last 5 ballgames. Once again, the over is 5-0 in Indiana home games and the over is 6-2 when the Bulls are road underdogs of late.

LAS VEGAS TECH REPORT (LVTR): MINNESOTA vs PHILADELPHIA


Play: PHILADELPHIA -8 (NBA)
Comments: LAS VEGAS TECH REPORT (LVTR) SELECTION: PHILADELPHIA -8 (NBA) ^^^ Minnesota has been horrendous on the road. Heck, they have just been horrendous all around. You can find Dino at the inside slant dot com. They are traveling off a back to back after they were leveled by Washington last night and now must face what is turning out to be a very hot Philadelphia team who just took down Houston in their last game. Minnesota is 11-24 ATS off a road loss and have lost six of their last seven games. Philadelphia has won their last three games by a margin of 11, 28, and 12.
LAS VEGAS TECH REPORT (LVTR): CHICAGO vs INDIANA


Play: CHICAGO +1 (NBA)
Comments: LAS VEGAS TECH REPORT (LVTR) SELECTION: CHICAGO +1 (NBA) ^^^ Bulls are heating up as they have won 5 of their last 7 games and averaging more than 94 points in their last six games, increasing up to five points above their season average. In head to head last year, The Bulls won three of four vs Indiana. They are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 match ups with the Pacers.
LAS VEGAS TECH REPORT (LVTR): GOLDEN STATE vs PORTLAND


Play: GOLDEN STATE -5 (NBA)
Comments: LAS VEGAS TECH REPORT (LVTR) SELECTION: GOLDEN STATE -5 (NBA) ^^^ Portland will be without leading scorer LaMarcus Aldridge for one week due to injury. That's 18 ppg's that Portland will sorely be missing tonight from their top scorer. You can find Dino at the inside slant fot com. Golden State has been dominating the West going 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games. Portland has not fared well against Golden State going 1-6 ATS. Without Portland's leading shot taker, and with overwhelming trend support, we will go with Golden State and the moderate -5 line.
LAS VEGAS TECH REPORT (LVTR) LATE ADDITION SELECTION: U MASS vs BOSTON COLLEGE


Play: BOSTON COLLEGE -4
Comments: LAS VEGAS TECH REPORT (LVTR) LATE ADDITION SELECTION: Always check back by 7pm est week days and 6pm est on the Week ends. Always remember that plays posted early are always LVTR primary plays. Today's Late addition play is : BOSTON COLLEGE -4

Scott Spreitzer's 25* NBA Wednesday Night Blowout! *12-4, 75% ATS!
I'm laying the points with the Magic on Wednesday. At 17-5 ATS, we are wise to either play ON Orlando or stay away from their games completely. Tonight, we have a situation and an opponent that puts us firmly on the visitor. Not only are the Magic cashing tickets at a 77% clip overall, but they're also an unbelievable 12-1 ATS away from home. The Magic have had no trouble getting up for losing teams, covering six of eight chances. Tonight, they'll face a Milwaukee squad that's in one of their worst spots. They're 0-5 SU, 1-4 ATS playing with one day of rest between games, losing by an average of 105-97. They also don't matchup well with Orlando. The Magic have won three of the last four tilts between these two teams, winning by 23, 18, and 25! Look for Orlando to roll again on Wednesday with a comfortable win and cover. I'm laying the points with the Magic. Thanks! GL! Scott.
