Welp, we finally took a hit this past Sunday with a 1-2 record on the day. I knew it in my heart the Mavs were going to let me down, but I went with them anyway. The biggest pain is, they were actually the right pick. They had like 4 free throws down 2 to either go to OT or win the game. I shouldn’t be surprised they found a way to just absolutely fucking BLOW it. Way to go Dallas, enjoy the lottery. Remember: it’s just as hard to go 1-2 as it is to go 2-1. Fall down 7 times, get back up 8. Time for a big baller type of week.
PHI -1.5 (-110) vs. Boston
- You know my rule: Fuck Boston sports. I hate the Celtics and will never pick them ever. I also think this is a bad matchup for them. The Sixers just got their asses handed to them by the Bucks, and you know Joel Embiid will be out for blood. The C’s don’t have anyone that can really match up to him. I also like that the Sixers will be at home in front of their homicidal crowd.
SAC ML (+104) @ New Orleans
- This is another game that scares be because I feel like I’m just seeing the board too clearly. Why would NOLA be favored? Is it because they’re at home? I believe in the Kings offense. I know the Pels have been pretty good recently but overall I still think they’re kind of garbage without Zion. The Kings are all about the 3 P’s which are Points, Points, Points!! If you’re a pussy feel free to take the +1.5, the grown men will be chasing the ML tomorrow.
Chi -2.5 @ Atlanta
- Again, am I taking fucking crazy pills? The Hawks are dog shit and we all know it. The Bulls, weirdly enough, are on some kind of strange hot streak right now. I’ve been on the wrong end of it twice already, so I know it will fuck me by switching to the other side. However, the Hawks have been within 1 game of .500 for a ridiculously long time now—no reason to start believing in them now so I’ll be riding with Obama and Chi-Town tomorrow.
As of right now there aren’t any player props available on FanDuel. I don’t know why they’re lagging behind like a peg-legged Grandma at the grocery store but you’ll just have to settle for the regular old game spreads. I can feel another 3-0 day in my bones. I might want to get that strange sensation checked out by a doctor, but I don’t want him to prescribe me some medicine that makes it go away. Even if that tingling is a life-threatning disease, I won’t let it interfere with my weekly picks. Sorry Doc, I’m an American- of the People, by People, for the People, EAGLE!!!
