Beat The Skeets is a daily feature in which SML tries to surpass the record set by the best basketball handicappers in the world, J.E. Skeets and Tas Melas of www.thebasketballjones.net.
TBJ Current Record: They lost yesterday with the Nets getting blown out by the Magic last night. The Magic are still my pick to win the Eastern Conference this year, at this point. TBJ's record is now 55-38 (59.1%).
SML Current Record: We won three out of five yesterday, hitting with the red-hot Clippers, Toronto and the Bulls. We struck out on the T-Wolves (which we regret as soon as we placed the bet), and the Laker (f*cking Pacers) Current record: 9-17 (34.6%).
Today's picks: SML is going with two road teams getting points: The Knicks [+5] @ Orlando minus Grant Hill... hard to see them blowing out two Titanic division teams back to back, so we feel this will come down to the buzzer. We are also taking Denver [+6.5] @ the Kings. Our third and final pick of the night is the Rockets, giving up [-9.5] at home against the Hornets. Yes, the Hornets cost us money yesterday when we bet against them, but SML wants them to prove it on back to back nights.
