TUESDAYS CARD  0-1 (-2.2 apples )
 
 We got the season off to a bad start last night as i lost with the rockets Over. I  was a trey away from cashing my ticket but a 37 point 3rd quarter ended up being the difference.
All four dogs covered last night and all four games ended up going under the total with the Celtics being right around the number.
Too early to say if this might be a trend,parity or just a coincidence.

SACRAMENTO-OKLAHOMA CITY UNDER 205 ( 2 Apples )

There is very little talent on this Kings team.  Garcia will be out till at least Mid January and except for Kevin Martin most of these players have no quality playing minutes in the NBA. Westphal has decided to go with Evans at the point guard position. I think that's a big mistake, Evans was a shooting guard at Memphis and that's the position he excels at. Sacramento will be hard pressed to get 85 points tonight. I was also leaning a little towards the kings but i am more comfortable here betting on the UNDER.

DETROIT -2.5 ( 1 apple )

I've been starring at this game all morning and i finally decided to pull the trigger. The spread is favorable. I like what Joe Dumars has done with this club. The Pistons  did the right thing by not signing the cancer Wallace. I really like this team right now, the additions of Gordon and Villaneuva is definitely an upgrade. I think the pistons should finish 5th or 6th in the eastern conference this year.
LETS START WITH A WIN TONIGHT.

Detroit looks like a good pick, they have the deeper bench, and that should make a difference tonight. Stuckey will get a chance to show how far he has come, he should have a great season. They also have 2 explosive guards coming off the bench, Ben Gordon and Will Bynum.

44dimes -- really like the Detroit play, that's one I had my eye on when I was developing my card for today. If Kevin Love was playing, then I'd strongly lean Minnesota as I think his impact is highly underrated by a lot of people. As it stands though, I like the Detroit play.

I think it is a coincidence that all four dogs covered as well as all the unders. Four games is such a small sample size that I wouldn't take anything from it.

I need to see the Pistons play before I do anything with them. Too many changes. They could be a play-off team, or they could be 9th or 10th in the east...and 9th or 10th in the east is not a good team...

Wasn't last year the year Stuckey was going to show everyone what he could do?  IMO he's just not that good of a starting point guard.  Hes a good bench role player.

BOL with the picks

Agreed...Stuckey is such a shoot-first PG and with CV, Prince, and Rip all looking to get shots, that is bad for Detroit.  If Stuckey was undrafted and Bynum was the first-rounder, WB would be starting...he should be anyway.  Then Detroit could swing Stuckey to the 2 and look to move the aging Rip and his contract.
