Merry Christmas everybody. I was up all night capping these games and going over every possible detail, I work harder than all to make my chances that much better and stronger to win the bet. thats all that matters and in the end whether i make funny comments or act strange... all that counts is whether i win or lose the bet and have a profit each and every night. Now i am not perfect some nights i am down, but over the long haul I rate my % @ over 61% to me thats really exceptional. NBA RECORD 1-1 + 4.4 units. Here is my 3 plays and my take on them... First game, Bulls @ Knicks. I know on that Thursday night TNT November 4th game in Chicago the New York Knicks did their thing and smacked the Bulls bad with three pointers and tough guard play. IMO this game is big on revenge, the Bulls do not forget that game and Boozer wasn't on the court, the Bulls are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games vs. the NBA Atlantic. They are also 6-1 ATS in the last 7 games overall and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as a road underdog of 0.5 to 4.5.And lastly they are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games vs. the Eastern Conference. However the Knicks are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as a favorite of 0.5 to 4.5. And they are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games following a straight up win. Here is my play... Chicago Bulls +2 for 10 units and Chicago Bulls ML @ +115 for 5 units. Next game is a big one the Boston Celtics travel to Orlando to take on the now winning Magic, they came out of their funk on Thursday night to rock the Spurs and score 123 points. The Celtics barley managed to beat my lowly 76ers by 4 points and almost lost that streak. I love this game because last year when all the people had the Magic going to the finals, the Celtics defense was on lock down and smothered that high powered offense to take them out of the playoffs with ease. I love the Magic today to knock off the hated Celtics in dramatic Fashion and here is my play... just a side note I came back here to make a splash and a difference and i hope you all really understand what i am all about, i take these games very serious and always remember that you can fade me or tail me or ignore me, but in the end i will games and will do my best to beat the books at their own game, i am more than sharp, and time will tell how good i can become, OK back to the games, i bet and won the Magic on Thursday night hard the line and the Spurs on a back to back was a sure sign they would be tired, i won and if paid off, but the other night the Mavs won in Miami i won that bet as well, but the next night i was all over the Magic and got beat bad, the Mavs on a back to back seem more capable of getting it down all 4 quarters, the Spurs could not. Today my play is the Orlando Magic -2 for 15 big bad units, a large and big bet for me. Last game and the biggest one for me this 2010. I love this game for a few reasons, the hype with Kobe and Lebron and the crew, but more than that I have a few friends in the Heat organization{ not players or coaches OK lets not get it twisted} but i can tell you they are and were pissed when Phil opened his big mouth early this season and commented on the teams state of affairs, they want this game badly and Wade wants it more than most would think, Lebron is odd in a way, kind of plays off things like they don't matter, IMO he is a ego laden and power hungry play to the crowd player, he wants to win to a degree but he will see how many times he drive to the basket today, to get a full barometer of how he wants the game to flow, Kobe used to drive to the basket more and he cut back on that, even admitted it in a slick way back last year, the Heat are in full gear now and shut down the Suns on Thursday night to 83 points. with out Wade, he wants to play today obviously, look for Bosh to explode for a big game tonight, I think the Lakers are lazy at times and uninspired as with last year, they came off a tremendous road trip only losing the game at Chicago, then came back very bored at the thoughts of the Bucks game with out Jennings and they know the night before they got smacked around in Portland by 26 points, good thing in the NBA a team can and will get blown out and the very next night win a game they have to business winning. 98-79..... really the Lakers showed their interest in the game a big look ahead for the Heat game, thats where the sharp players pound the game and i know a guy who hammered that +12 on the Bucks. here is my play but a few key trends that made my decision. The Lakers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games a home favorite and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a SU loss, but the Lakers are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games following a SU loss of more than 10 points. The Heat are 1-5 in their last 6 games as a road underdog but are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 road games. This game i spent the most time on I even pulled out some old VCR tapes and got myself in the mood, this game will be close up until a point.., here is my play... the Miami Heat +3 for 30 units and the Miami Heat ML @ +135 for 15 units. all in all this day is really putting my bankroll in the heat of the night, risking 33% of it on these 3 games, enjoy the games and my plays and have a wonderful Christmas with your family, i will be back on and off through out the day for updates and comments.

Good luck! Suggestion for next time though, I do like the explanations, but break them up into paragraphs or something.

bad day for me guys, 0-1 on the day and -16 units. losing the Magic game for 15 units, need a big Magic comeback, if not I am in deep water, good thing Miami will WIN THE GAME OUTRIGHT! adding to that Heat play +3.5 for 20 more units and the ML @ +150 for 10 more units. I am in deep today if I lose.
