Groin shot

Wow was yesterday frustrating. The Celtics cover in a comeback but the Jazz fail to stay within three thanks to the horrendous play of sloth-mo Mehmet Okur. He was BRUTAL! He missed three straight free throws and air balled the final two shots of the game. Parlay his play with the Knicks blowing a 16 point lead and we've got a pretty unlucky night. I will not bet on the Knicks EVER AGAIN. It's hard to tell when teams like the Knicks are going to take a shit or hit a homerun and I'm tired of guessing. They lose to the Clippers at home and beat the Heat on the road the night after losing in three OT's! I should know better than to bet on teams that are bad and bi-polar.

Tonight let's see if we can stop the bleeding and my bitching by betting on the BIG DANCE.

$$$$ Purdue + 7 1/2 vs. Uconn

Purdue just might win this game. For the first time in the tourny Uconn is really going to miss Dyson. Purdue will be in Husky shorts all night and Robbie Hummel will give a lazy Uconn defense fits. 6'10 JaJuan Johnson will do just enough to disrupt Thebeet and help the Boilermakers pull off an unexpected upset. Don't underestimate Purdue, dees boys can play.

$$$$ Pitt -7 vs. Xavier

Pitt's struggled a bit in their opening round games, but they won't struggle tonight against an average Xavier club. Xavier's defense looked great against Wisconsin because they were playing Wisconsin. They are outmatched at nearly every position and they won't have an answer for Blair. Look for Xavier to hang around in the first half before losing in double digit fashion.

Good teams getting points :)

We split yesterday as Baylor continued playing out of their minds and Penn State proved why the SEC only got three teams in the big dance compared to the Big Ten's 7.

Today we venture back into the black and sprinkled white world of the NBA.

$$$$ Celtics + 3 1/2 @ Orlando

Guess what? The Celtics are healthy again! And Jameer Nelson is still out for the Season for Orlando! And the Celts are still the defending champions! And they are getting points! Take the Celts and run with the points as Garnett gets enough playing time to help his team win outright.

$$$$ Jazz + 3 @ Phoenix

Simply put, the Jazz are a much better team than the Suns. As long as the Jazz are healthy they don't struggle on the road. And if your bookie offers it, take the over on Derron Williams for total points + assists. I got him at 32. He could be over that by halftime.

$$$$ Knicks - 7 vs. Clippers

The Knicks are coming off a tough loss at home against the Magic two nights ago and will be looking to put a beating on a Clippers team that's used to taking one. Take the Knicks in a lady of the night BLOWOUT.
