(POD) NEW JERSEY NETS +4 over DALLAS MAVERICKS
This game is all about the home team as out of t he last 7 times these 2 teams have played the home team has come away with the W. I see Harris show casing his talent once again against the team that thought they could not win a championship with him running the helm and traded for Kidd last year (talk about a mistake). To the point, I see the Nets playing tough and feeding off of Harris as he looks to throw it inthe face of his former team.
CHICAGO BULLS +13 over BOSTON CELTICS
One of the most telling facts about these baby bulls is that they are 5-1 ATS when they are dogs of 11 or higher. This shows us they get up for elite teams on the road and play them tight. That trend will continue tonight as this is a good let down spot for the Celtics as they just got over a tough game down in Atlanta that they really wanted to have after not being able to win a game there in the 1st round of last years playoffs. The Bulls conversely will be up to the challenge of playing the defending champs and showing they are ready to get back into the playoffs, as a win tonight would go a long way to giving them the confidence they need.
OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER +7 over TORONTO RAPTORS
While I have no desire to watch this game as both of these two teams bore the hell out of me, I can't turn a blind eye to a good play. The Thunder will end up with the worst record in the league this year but when it's all said and done their ATS record will be much much better. Did you know that they have gone 7-3 ATS over their last 10 as a dog? This is because the public over estimates just how bad this team is and I want to be rolling against them tonight with this one. I wouldn't be shocked to see the Thunder win outright tonight but roll with the points and we'll be looking solid at the end of the night! -

Marc Lawrence NBA Fan Appreciation Play!:
Play On: Denver Nuggets
Note: What a difference Chauncey Billups makes for Denver! Since shedding the selfish moves of Allen Iverson in exchange for Billups the Nuggets have new life. That’s evidenced by their climb in the standings. Tonight they will look to avenge a 110-99 defeat suffered at the ‘Q’ in Cleveland earlier this season and we like their chances. The Cavs recent winning run keeps this game affordable. With C Zydrunas Ilgauskas in and out of the lineup with injuries and the Cavs in the 3rd of a 4-game road trip, off a 23-point win over the Timberwolves, look for Denver to improve to 10-3 SU and 9-4 ATS in this series and to 14-3 SU and ATS on Fridays here tonight.
Don't make a move on Saturday's College Bowl card until you learn of a play backed by two amazing Awesome Angles inside one game that are 14-0 ATS and 19-1 ATS in Bowl games since 1980! Get it now and 'Learn While You Earn' with Marc today!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marc Lawrence NBA Super Pick Super Play! - Friday:
Play On: Miami Heat
Note: Miami hosts the Lakers Friday night in a nice scheduling spot for the Heat. For openers they catch Los Angeles in the first game of this East Coast road swing off a 2-point home win on Tuesday with too much time on their hands in South Beach. That's never served the Lakers well as they are 5-8 SU and 4-9 ATS in Miami with rest including 1-6 ATS when the Heat is off a loss. With Miami off three double-digit losses in a row, look for the Heat to improve to 12-6 ATS in this role as a dog here tonight.
Be sure to put Marc's NBA Fan Appreciation Play on your ticket tonight. It's backed by a neat winning situation inside the game that is 100% perfect ATS and it's yours for only - if you act now!

Cleveland Cavaliers at Denver Nuggets Dec 19 2008 10:30PM
PICK: Denver Nuggets
Your pick was graded at: Belmont
EXPERT: Stephen Nover
TITLE: Game of the Week
EVALUATION: Play Not Evaluated.
REASON FOR PICK: LeBron James is having another MVP-type season and the Cavaliers have been one of the best teams in the NBA so far.
But this is Denver's spot to shine. The Nuggets have been off since Tuesday when they lost at Houston. The Nuggets are eager to atone for that defeat. Prior to that loss, Denver had been averaging more than 110 points during their past 10 games, while winning by an average victory margin of more than 16 points.
The Nuggets have become a much improved team since acquiring Chauncey Billups going 16-5. They have yet to lose back-to-back games since Billups joined the team.
Cleveland is 2-4 on the road against teams with a winning record. This is Cleveland's third consecutive road game. The Cavaliers have won only once at the Pepsi Center during the LeBron James era. They were blown out during their two previous visits.
The Cavaliers are playing short-handed missing center Zydrunas Ilgauskas and reserve guard Daniel Gibson.
Memphis at South Florida Dec 20 2008 4:30PM
PICK: Memphis
Your pick was graded at: 12 betED
EXPERT: Ted Sevransky
TITLE: Saturday's Bowl Bash
EVALUATION: Play Not Evaluated.
REASON FOR PICK: Double digit favorites have been an absolute disaster for bettors to support in early bowl games. The only reason that these teams are favored by this type of a margin to begin with is because of their pre-season expectations; expectations that they clearly did not live up to. South Florida is a classic example of one such team. The Bulls entered the season as a dark horse national title contender. At a minimum, Jim Leavitt’s team was expected to compete for the Big East crown. Instead, they disappointed their supporters all year long, finishing with a 2-5 mark in conference play. Their signature victory for the season came back in September, a three point, come-from-behind win against a Kansas squad that didn’t live up to expectations either. The Bulls won only twice all year by double digit margins – beating 3-9 Syracuse at home, and dominating NC State in a game where the Wolfpack were without their starting quarterback.
Junior quarterback Matt Grothe has not really improved since his freshman year, with a lower QB rating as both a sophomore and a junior as he had in his first year as the starter. Grothe is prone to both interceptions and fumbles – turnovers were a problem for the Bulls this year. No running back on the team gained even 400 yards – Grothe was the leading rusher as well. None of Grothe’s receivers developed into a ‘go-to’ pass catcher, with Jessie Hester’s 557 receiving yards and Taurus Johnson’s five receiving touchdowns leading the team in both categories. The Bulls ranked in the middle of the NCAA pack in both rushing and passing offense. This is not a team that consistently puts up points in bunches, and it’s very difficult to win bowl games by double digit margins without an offense that is capable of exploding.
The location and situation surrounding this bowl game does not favor South Florida one iota. They closed the season on a 1-4 SU run, watching their chances at a bigger and better bowl game slip away, week by week. Normally, a home state game is a positive factor. In this game, the prospect of sleeping in their own beds during bowl season is not a good one, particularly for a game that nobody, from the coaching staff on down, seems to be particularly excited about. Expect a lethargic effort from the ‘home’ team here.
Memphis is no juggernaut, but they are certainly capable of competing, which is all we can ask for out of our double digit underdogs. The Tigers have been running the football effectively, averaging nearly than 300 yards per game on the ground over their final four contests. QB Arkelon Hall is fully healthy after missing a few games in early November. Five different receivers caught at least 28 passes and two touchdowns. While the Tigers defense is not a particularly stout unit, their level of enthusiasm for this bowl game in comparison to South Florida’s lack of excitement makes this underdog worthy of support. 3* Take Memphis.Comment
