Posted by Brandon Phillips in NBA Picks on November 3rd, 2009 | 21 CommentsOverall Loss 2.8 units
Great day yesterday as we got back on track going 3-1 and a profit of 2.9 units. Looking to make it back to back winning days with today’s card.
1) Utah at Dallas (-3) for 1 unit FIRST HALF
2) Utah at Dallas (-5) for 1 unit
3) Boston at Philadelphia (+4) for 1 unit FIRST HALF
4) Atlanta at Portland (-4) for 1 unit FIRST HALF
5) Atlanta at Portland (-7) for 1 unit
Good Luck! Feel free to make comments or leave any questions about why I like a game.

hey Brandon! i’m looking for a parlay tonight… 2 or 3 team… any help? my guy doesn’t do half time bets… so i’m thinking bowling green with either dallas and portland… maybe even all 3 for a small bet
I like all three games. However I would do this:
Parlay 1: Dallas (-5) and Bowling Green (+3) for 1 unit
Parlay 2: Dallas (-5) and Portland (-7) for 1 unit
Parlay 3: All 3 for .5 unit
Good Luck!
I guess you feel really strongly about Dallas?
Jake,
My numbers have them favored by between 7 and 8 points. Plus, Utah has been notorious for being a poor road team as well and right now this team is simply not playing well. So I will lay the five points here with Dallas.
Good Luck.
thank you! good luck tonight!
Brandon, Thanks for the picks last night….. I invest in your picks just about every night and….. As usual with the season start of any pro sport, I’ve been seeing a lot of outright dogs win easily… Any thoughts on who you like tonight to upset??? I figure, it couldnt hurt to take advantage of some favorites stumbling before they get going…… Thanks bro, Jackson in Memphis..
Jackson,
I love playing dogs as well. Listed below, in order of confidence, are a couple dogs I see value in playing tonight:
1) 76ers +250
2) Pacers +200
3) Oklahoma City +240
Good Luck!
Thanks for the quick response…..Cant get this type of service anywhere!!!!
agreed, thanks brandon and vegas
Appreciate the comments guys!
The Dallas line is already at -6.5 and even some -7 out there! Hope you jumped on it early.
brandon, haven’t had a chance… been working… if it’s 6 or 6.5 would that change your mind?
Jake,
My stats have them as an 8 point favorite anything LESS than that they would be a play.
What a horrible shooting half in this Dallas/Utah game.
Ha! I can’t do anything but laugh with the Dallas & Bowling Green games.. I’m alive and well, but my blood preasure just hit a record high for a Tuesday… Lol
How the hell did Dallas score 44 points in a quarter? 3.67 points per minute! That’s insane. Most of the time teams don’t even hit 44 in a half.
Nice parlay hit Jackson.
Dallas was down 11 with 6:37 to go in the fourth quarter!!! The win by 15!! What do you say to that? I am speechless, but thankful we were on Dallas!
lol… i’m glad i decided to go out to eat after the BG game…
WAY TO GO BRANDON! Nice hit for me last night with your parlay advice… went up 3.5 units on the evening!
hey brandon and vegas… i don’t know if you will share this info, but I am curious how you guys are figuring your picks… whats your criteria… i’m trying to become as educated as much as possible about how lines are made and why… the teams themselves… just betting in general
I appreciate all the help!
B,
Thanks, any picks for today?

Honestly, I am a numbers guy and do a lot of analyzing and crunching numbers. I watch games and take a lot of notes that way as well. I also have the benefit of talking with several handicappers who are in the “industry” who I am able to get tips and advice from and factor that information in to everything else as well.
Bottom line. . . you have to find something that works for you.
