Ranked vs Unranked Basketball Favorites
College basketball is here and when betting college hoops over the years I have noticed several line spots over the years. First let me explain what a line spot is. A line spot is a line that looks to be too good to be true. Other handicappers this a trap, or a stinky line, or even too good to be true line. I call it a line spot and will refer to it as this throughout the article.

NBA Picks and Previews
Portland Trail Blazers at Phoenix Suns Preview and Pick
Posted by: Jay Horne on Mar. 20th, 2010
The Portland Trail Blazers and Phoenix Suns will collide at the US Airways Center for the 3rd meeting of the season Sunday night. The Suns have been really hot on the offensive side of the court in recent weeks which was highlighted by a massive 152 point blowout over Minnesota earlier in the week. Phoenix is on an impressive 11-3 SU run in their last 14 games and an equally impressive 11-3 run against the spread in that same 14 game stretch. However, Phoenix has dropped both previous meetings with the Trail Blazers this season including a 108-101 loss at home back in early February.
San Antonio Spurs at Orlando Magic Preview and Pick
Posted by: Jay Horne on Mar. 16th, 2010
The Orlando Magic currently own the 2nd best record in the Eastern Conference at 47-21 and if they keep the pace going they could easily lock up a number 2 seed in the playoffs. Orlando enters Wednesday night’s game against San Antonio fresh off of two days rest after a disappointing rare home loss to the Bobcats 96-89. However, the Magic prepare to rebound when they host the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday from Amway Arena. The Spurs are one of the teams that are right in the middle of a big playoff race in the Western Conference. In fact, the Spurs were on the outside looking in before a huge victory over the Heat on Tuesday. Despite the win, the Spurs not afford any losses and every game is becoming very critical. Add the fact, the Spurs lost star point guard Tony Parker for the rest of the season and it gives off the impression that San Antonio has their backs against the wall. However, the Spurs will still get the chance to keep their own hot streak alive on Wednesday in one of the toughest environments for a visiting team.
Portland Trailblazers at Denver Nuggets Preview and Pick
Posted by: Jay Horne on Mar. 6th, 2010
The Denver Nuggets host the Portland Trailblazers in a late Sunday night Northwest division showdown inside Pepsi Arena. Denver owns the 2nd best Western Conference record at 41-21 and their postseason future appears bright especially with their success over the Lakers this season. Denver also owns one of the best home records in the NBA at 27-5 and will be 6 point favorites over the Trailblazers this Sunday. Portland has won 3 straight games and 5 of their last 6 outings. The Trailblazers are also re-energized after having 3 days off which is a fairly sizeable advantage in their favor. However, the Trailblazers recent winning spree has hardly come at the hands of any respectable opponents and it will be interesting to see just how well they are playing when they travel to Denver Sunday night.
Los Angeles Lakers at Orlando Magic Preview and Pick
Posted by: Jay Horne on Mar. 6th, 2010
A rematch of last year’s NBA Finals renews this Sunday when the Orlando Magic host the Los Angeles Lakers. Both teams are yet again front runners in their respected conferences to perhaps making another Finals appearance. The Lakers own the best record in the Western Conference at 46-17 while the Magic own the 2nd best record in the Eastern Conference at 43-20. However, the contest will take place at Amway Arena where the Magic are a very strong 24-6. On the other side of the court, the Lakers are just 17-12 away from the Staples Center. Perhaps even more surprising is the Lakers are entering the contest on a rare losing skid having dropped two straight road games to both Miami and Charlotte. If the Lakers were to happen to fall again this Sunday, it would mark the first time they have lost 3 straight regular season games since January of 2008.
New Orleans Hornets at San Antonio Spurs Preview and Pick
Posted by: Jay Horne on Mar. 5th, 2010
The San Antonio Spurs host the New Orleans Hornets in a Friday night showdown amongst contenders from the Southwest division. The Spurs trail the Mavericks by 5 games in the division and come into the game after a brutal road stretch that involved 10 of their last 12 games. The Spurs knocked off the Hornets earlier in the week 106-92 as George Hill led the team with 23 points. If you buy-in to the revenge factor here, many may like the Hornets plus the additional points from the betting lines. However, the Spurs own a 21-10 record on their home court and handled the Hornets fairly easily in their last meeting in San Antonio back in the opener with a 113-96 victory. The Spurs have swept all 3 meetings this year, but the Hornets will attempt to get revenge in the final meeting of the season.
