Coming Soon: 2010-11 Free NHL Picks

Though football has consumed almost all of our time these last few months, we've gotten a few inquiries about whether or not we would be betting on other sports.

Our first reaction was, holy crap! You mean there are other sports?!

Our second reaction was remembering that, yes, we used to bet on these other sports quite a bit. Our Free NBA Picks were once the bread and butter of this site (then again, so were stocks), but we've lost faith in our system over the last year and a half to the point that we are now proceeding with exceed caution in that department.

What you will start seeing... eventually... is some Free NHL Picks, which we've had in the past but not to the volume with which we plan on posting this season. You know... eventually.

We're letting the early season numbers work themselves out, but December should bring about our first puck action this year.

In the meantime, check out our friends over at The Hockey Program, who have all sorts of great hockey coverage to get your ready for our (eventual) 2010-11 batch of Free NHL Picks.

We plan on ripping off Lexus and having a December to Remember, so be sure to check back often (in November too!) as we help you earn a little Christmas bonus that your boss is too cheap to give out this year.

Merry X-mas Degenerates and Happy B-day to Us

Merry Christmas to all of our degenerates out there waiting for an NBA play to satisfy your craving on this holiday.

Many of you might not know this, but along with Jesus, today is also the day of Lemmy's birth. Stock Lemon was born on Christmas Day two years ago, and we've been delivering picks and analysis ever since.

So, as a Christmas present to you and a birthday present to us, here's our NBA pick for today.

Lakers -6 over Cavaliers

Christmas Day is Kobe Bryant's time to shine, just like whatever gifts you purchase with today's winnings! Good luck!

Two, yes two, Free NBA Picks Tonight

Our Free NBA Picks have started this season with very sporadic plays, but tonight we have two whole picks!

Cavaliers -5 1/2 over the Bobcats

Pistons -4 over the Clippers

Good luck!

A Sunday Free NBA Pick

Our Free NBA Picks are off to an unusually slow start, with a couple of early heartbreakers. Hopefully we can get it going today by continuing to bet on horrible teams.

Golden State Warriors -3 over Sacramento Kings

We expect Don Nelson to expose the Kings like he exposes himself on any given night.

Good luck!

Free NBA Picks Continue Out West

The way our Free NBA Picks are going to start the year, we're going to need to get used to staying up late. We have another pick out west tonight, and once again the teams involved are less than stellar.

Grizzlies +6 over the Warriors

You can check out the rest of the NBA Odds at Doc's Sports.

Good luck!

Road NBA Dogs Out West Tonight

We like two road dogs in the late games tonight as we look to get our Free NBA Picks going.

Grizzlies +1 over the Kings

Timberwolves +7 1/2 Clippers

The bottom line is this: these are four bad basketball teams playing tonight, but we think we picked the cream of the dying crops.

If you don't like these, you can always check out Doc's Sports for more NBA Picks.

First Free NBA Pick of the Year

Here it is!

Historically the Free NBA Picks have been some of our best.

Suns -3 1/2 over the Clippers

Good luck this year!

Records Update

As you've probably noticed, we keep record of our free sports picks and post them on the side of this page. We've posted plenty of plays that weren't part of any system, so you won't find those stragglers on the right hand side of our site, otherwise all of our picks are posted on the side at the completion of the season so long as we played at least ten games under each particular system.

We have updated our 13-6 (68%) Free NBA Picks record and posted it under Lemmy's Resume now that the season is over, and so it joins the other completed sports seasons we have bet on.

We have received some criticism about the lack of plays that we post for certain systems, but that's just the way it is. Our systems are strict for a reason--they are successful.

Though we're not sure if we're going to focus more on free picks or analysis in the future, free picks will always be a part of the site. And when we do post them, we think our records speak for themselves.

We Win... Kind Of

Just a few days after declaring that the Lakers would win the NBA Finals, we had a Free NBA Pick proclaming the Magic as the likely Game 5 winner.

The bad news for us is that the Lakers won it in five. The good news is that we can still claim that we were right about the final outcome!

Unfortunately, the Lakers beat the Magic 99-86, giving our Free NBA Picks their first loss in the post season. The Free NBA Picks finish the playoffs with a 5-1 record, and a 13-6 (68%) mark in 2009.

It was a good season for our Free NBA Picks, few and far between as they might have been down the stretch, but there was clearly a method to our madness.

Do you Believe in Our Free NBA Pick Magic?

We haven't been focusing on our free picks as much as we usually do, but we have one for you tonight.

Our Free NBA Picks are 5-0 in the 2009 NBA Playoffs and 13-5 (72%) overall in 2009.

We are very picky with our selections, but you can see that we've had some success by doing so.

That being said, here's the pick for tonight:

Magic -3 1/2 over the Lakers

We know we just predicted the Lakers to take the series, but Dwight Howard and the Magic won't go down easily. Howard will overpower Pau Gasol and the Lakers' big men one more time, before losing the series in LA.

As always, good luck!

Taking Stock (Lemon)

If you're wondering where we've been in the past couple of weeks during the exciting NBA Playoffs, fear not, we are around. Our Free NBA Pick system might be about done for the year, but we'll let you know if that changes. 

In the meantime, we're working on some major changes here at Stock Lemon which we can't really go into too much detail about at the moment, but we'll update you as things progress. Believe us, though, when we tell you they are major. 

So continue checking back even if we haven't updated in a few days in case we do put something up (because we want the pageviews to keep coming even when we aren't posting). We will be back and better than ever in no time. 

Free NBA Picks Improve to 5-0 In Playoffs

Our Free NBA Picks are hot, hot, hot. 

And hot. 

With the Magic's 117-96 victory over the Celtics, our Free NBA Picks improved to an impressive 5-0 in the postseason. In 2009, the picks are now 13-5 (72%). 

So keep checking back, even if it's just to spam our comments section, as we deliver more winners in the NBA. 

A Free NBA Playoff Pick Tonight

We finally have another Free NBA Pick! Our Free NBA Picks are 12-5 in 2009 (71%) and 4-0 in the playoffs! Let's keep it going. 

Magic -4 1/2 over the Celtics

Good luck!

Keep An Eye Out

It's been a little slow around here, but we're just letting you know that we should have a Free NBA Pick any day now, so keep checking back. 

Our Free NBA Picks have been pretty hot lately, so don't miss out if/when we ever have a freaking system play. 

Nuggets Give Us 4-0 NBA Playoff Record

The Nuggets came through again in their series against the Hornets, this time winning by a count of 108 to 93, covering the -6 1/2 spread. 

Our Free NBA Picks, as the title proclaims, are now 4-0 in the playoffs, and 12-5 in 2009 (71%). 

Maybe we should stick to basketball...

One Free NHL Pick Tonight, Too

Wow. We have two Free MLB Picks, a Free NBA Pick, and a Free NHL Pick--all in one night!

Here's the hockey pick:

Capitals -130 over the Rangers

Good luck and hopefully we can dominate all three sports!

A Free NBA Pick For Tonight

We have a Free NBA Pick tonight, which is good news, since the picks are 3-0 in the playoffs and 11-5 overall in 2009 (which is 69%!). 

We are riding the Nuggets for game two against the Hornets, just as we did in game one. 

Nuggets -6 1/2 over the Hornets

Good luck!

Nuggets Make it 3-0

Our Free NBA Picks are catching fire at just the right time. 

The Nuggets beat the Hornets 113-84 in game one of their playoff series, covering the -6 spread and giving us a 3-0 NBA playoff record. 

Overall, our Free NBA Picks have won four straight and are 11-5 in 2009 (69%). 

Be sure to add us to your RSS feed and follow us on twitter to make sure you get these picks while they're hot!

Lakers Improve Free NBA Playoff Picks to 2-0

The Lakers squeaked out a cover against the Jazz in game one of their playoff series today, winning 113-100 to cover the -12 spread. 

More importanly, LA gives us a 2-0 record in the postseason thus far, and 10-5 in 2009 (67%). 

We'll hope to stay hot later tonight when the Nuggets take on the Hornets. 

Keep following our hot Free NBA Picks and go Nuggets!

Two Free NBA Playoff Picks

When we said we wanted to play more NBA games, we meant it, but that doesn't mean we're ever going to a force a pick that doesn't have value. 

We just wanted to clear that up, because today we have two Free NBA Picks. 

Lakers -12 over the Jazz

Nuggets -6 over Hornets

As you can see, we like both home favorites today in the West. Our Free NBA Picks are 9-5 in 2009 (64%), and 1-0 in the playoffs! Woo hoo!

Good luck!
