RECAP: That was a rough end to the month. Indiana was in foul trouble the entire second half, and had no one left to slow down Purdue's big men. The Hoosiers fell by 11, half a point too much. Luckily for some, like my brother Cameron, the line had moved to 11 before the game, and they were able to push. I was not as fortunate. Florida Panthers were able to produce a victory, but not until a shoot out. Two close losses ALWAYS means two close wins are on the horizon. Stay tuned for March picks. It's going to be a fantastic month!
PHILADELPHIA 76ERS +9.5 at Miami Heat
6:30pm central
(11 units wagered, 10 units won)
Miami really screwed us the other night, putting up 89 points in a loss to the Mavs. Tonight they try to bounce back against a resilient Sixers team, that has gotten used to life without Joel Embiid. The emergence of Dario Saric has helped immensely. Since Joel has been out Dario has put up amazing numbers, and is even making an argument for rookie of the year. Saric has 4 double doubles in his last 5 games. Over Dario's last 10 games he is shooting 47%. Saric should be a big factor in this game. Since the All Star break the 76ers have a point differential of -1.3. The 76ers are able to keep games tight by playing a team game, currently sitting at 9th in the league in assists. We saw last game, Miami can sometimes rely on one on one scorers, and are 22nd in the league in assist. Jahlil Okafor and Richaun Holmes should continue to get more comfortable in their roles with the team since Nerlens Noel has departed. As these players get more comfortable, now that the frontcourt isn't as crowded, I expect the 76ers to improve even more. On February 11th, these two teams matched up in Miami. Philadelphia was victorious 117 to 109. The Sixers lead the series 2-1. Even if Miami is able to win the game, I am confident Phili keeps it close. Roll with the 76ers tonight and trust the process.
Carolina Hurricanes at TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING -1.5 +155
6pm central
(10 units wagered, 15.5 units won)
We are going to take another shot against the Carolina Hurricanes tonight. They should be tired from beating the spread last night at the BB&T center. Tampa was able to win on Monday 5-1 against Ottawa, before a day of rest. The Lightning are hot with a 6-2-2 record in their last 10. The Hurricanes should also be without their leading point scorer, Jeff Skinner, who is out with a upper body injury. On top of that, Carolina has lost 7 of its last 8 games. I believe The Lightning stay ELECTRIC tonight, and SHOCK the Hurricanes with a multiple goal victory. I know... that was awful... I'm sorry.
