YTD 27-16 ( +23.80 units )

2-0 last night. A much needed comeback. Restore some confidence.

MINNESOTA +6 ( 2 units )

The Timberwolves are one of the few teams in the league with a losing SU 7-10 record but a winning ATS record of 10-7. At one point during the season they reeled off 5 straight COVERS AS A DOG against some very good teams.Simply a team that you can't overlook when getting points. The T-Wolves are currently riding a 2 game losing streak and face the Dallas Mavericks who have won 3 in a row and will be without Dirk Nowitzki for tonights game. Marion filled in for him last game but i don't expect him to go off for 29 points again.

Good luck Guys. This is my only bet today.

I LIKE THE PICK BECAUSE THE WOLVES ACCUALLY SEEM TO BE PLAYING BETTER AS THE YEAR GOES ON, ALSO THE MAVS ARE GOING TO HAVE A HARD TIME KEEPING LOVE OFF THE GLASS.

I SEE THIS BEING LIKE THE DALLAS VS JAZZ GAME LAST WEEK WERE THE YOUNG LEGS OF THE WOLVES WILL KEEP THE GAME CLOSE OR EVEN WIN.

REALLY LIKE THE ROCKETS AT HOME THOUGH & EVEN CAVS BEING THE DOGS AGAINST THE INCONSISTANT KNICKS.

Scholz says:

01/25/12 11:36AM

I like the Timberwolves

kevinkim says:

01/25/12 11:41AM

i dont think it's too smart to put your dallas pick here

its 44 dimes thread, all the respect i have in covers members

pretty useless to give your pick in his thread.

i know your pick can win also, its only you need to create your thread.

TWOLVES!

Kiddrock says:

01/25/12 12:42PM

I like it!

HutchEmAll says:

01/25/12 12:42PM

Minny is hurting. They barely could find a small forward to put on the floor against Houston. Pesky spot with K. Love's contract deadline today. He's been great during the process, but you might see a bit of a let down if he signs his deal before the game.

Kiddrock says:

01/25/12 12:47PM

I was thinking the opposite. Whether he signs before or after I believe he is going to want to show he is worth every penny and have a great game tonight! (Tough one)

Rlt3g says:

01/25/12 12:54PM

any thoughts on Miami/Detroit game?!

smartbets says:

01/25/12 01:15PM

uh oh, 44 dimes and smartbets on Minny....

crystal_clean28 says:

01/25/12 01:27PM

i'm tempting to pull the trigger on Minny as well GL

Petro27 says:

01/25/12 01:28PM

Did you notice that Covers deleted all post from a capper that was great last night? Why would they do that?

sugalboy says:

01/25/12 01:44PM

you guys do know that kevin love re-signed already this morning right? 4yrs 55mil

sugalboy says:

01/25/12 01:45PM

correction, it's a 4yr 61million $ deal

HutchEmAll says:

01/25/12 03:56PM

It is certainly possible. He has handled himself in a pretty mature fashion (ie. came back this year in excellent shape and has played great even with the contract talks). I do know he said he felt "terrible" after the game with Houston (more from an illness standpoint).

Tough game to cap for sure. I do know MN had to have Shawn Respert (Michigan State alum) participate in practice yesterday cuz they were short bodies. All they did was work on pick and roll defense because they got completely worked by Houston.

joewashington says:

01/25/12 05:37PM

Wolves always play Mavs tough in Dallas......Love this kid Rubio.......Love Love too......

Minny covers and poss pulls out the V....

instinctpicks says:

01/25/12 02:01PM

I'm on Minnesota as well. Let's see how the mavs will do without dirk. This should give love a lot of opportunity to put points on board.

JEG53 says:

Nice one,your having quite the year counting your women,

Ive tried to cap this year NBA and if Im at 30% I will take it,so Ive quit capping and just look at 3 guys plays,
your the first one because I know how you are,dont make a play just to have something going,but sure didnt see any picks of yours yesterday.
Thanks for the pick tonight.

44-dimes says:

01/25/12 04:58PM

I'd be cautious about the Rockets, they've won their last 2 homes games by a combined 5 points. 2 wins but failed to get the cover both times

44-dimes says:

01/25/12 05:04PM

Not ready to be laying points on the road with this team quite yet. A 33 pt win yesterday and Carmelo scores only 1 point in his return. The early money is on the Knicks though. From -1 this line has been bet up to -3.5

44-dimes says:

01/25/12 05:07PM

It did cross my mind !!

44-dimes says:

01/25/12 05:12PM

You know what I'd rather have MILLICIC/LOVE and WILLIAMS ( who's gonna get better and better with every start ) over HAYWOOD/MARION and ODOM.

44-dimes says:

RIGHT ON------------That's what i like to here. Keep it up.

Thanks gentlemen, Hope today went well for you guys.

Passing on Thursday, 13 games on Friday and I'm looking at 2 or 3 sides.

smartbets says:

glad we cashed in on this one 44

smartbets says:

01/25/12 02:16PM

no clue....makes me think 44dimes and myself should start our own twitter account.

smartbets says:

01/25/12 03:06PM

i just created mine....post in my profile. just in case.

smartbets says:

01/25/12 01:33PM

who are you talking about?

smartbets says:

01/25/12 02:08PM

yeah it was cover_thespread

i saw he was banned, then all his posts were deleted.

sullyconor says:

01/25/12 10:38PM

44-dimes....You helped me huge on Sunday with Milwaukee +11.5 on my proline pointspread and made me 1000$

Now you helped me again on Minn +6.5 on proline pointspread and helped me win another 1000$

I love your insight man!!

Keep in up!!!

Thanks!! :-)

Hey 44dimes, great season so far man. Appreciate what you contribute to the forum. I was in the NBA forum last year but can't remember how your season went. Any idea on your overall NBA record from last year? Thanks brother

eyemtlaw says:

I like the under. Scores are out for both teams and both teams are playing unders in their home and road games.

CoverLane says:

01/25/12 11:11PM

You know, I read your thread daily yet never make a play on what you like.

Good read today -- Will stay tuned for friday.

Good luck, keep it rolling.

was the capper cover_thespread? because all his posts are gone but blog is still there.

dimes,

get on twitter before you disappear.

01/25/12 06:27PM

this is really eating you up huh petro? me too.

if you must know why, here's a clue:

read felixfermin and humbleness's response.

BoyBayo says:

01/25/12 11:24PM

followed you here. great pick

Petro27 says:

01/25/12 02:11PM

Yes, cover the spread, do you know why he was banned? That guy was solid.

Petro27 says:

01/25/12 02:06PM

Can`t remember his name, but he was always in your fhread exchanging ideas and not a hater. Last night he capped the Knicks, Magic and another winner and today all traces of his posts are gone. Why would they do that?

Petro27 says:

01/25/12 02:21PM

Hate to think a guy gets banned for posting winners, bummer.

Petro27 says:

01/25/12 05:54PM

True, A guy makes solid picks, not a hater, helps guys make money and all of a sudden he is gone. I`d like to know why.
