There's No Place Like Home

Through 20 games in the second round of the NBA Playoffs, the home team is a combined 19-1. 19-1! The Spurs have home court tonight against the Hornets, and facing elimination, our numbers indicate that this should be another home court blowout.

San Antonio Spurs -7 over the New Orleans Hornets

Tony Parker, Tim Duncan, and the rest of the defending champs should be able to contain Chris Paul and the up and coming Hornets, at least on their own court.

Our Free NBA Picks are 6-2 in the last eight games, so hopefully the Spurs will keep the momentum going.

Good luck!

Hornets and Mavs Go Over

We needed the Hornets and Mavs to score 193 points tonight. They scored 230.

The Hornets 127-103 victory in Game 2 of the series helped us even our playoff Free NBA Pick record back to 2-2, and our overall NBA Free Pick record to 42-22.

Thanks to countless buckets, including Chris Paul taking on Dirk Nowitzki for a lay-up, we're back up to .500 for the playoffs and hoping, oddly enough, to get back into regular-season form.

We tinkered with the numbers in the system a little bit prior to this game due to our concerns that, well, the last two Free NBA Pick losses were blowouts. We should be poised for a nice run with the updated stats added to the formula, so hop on and enjoy the ride.
