[h=2]Friday, Nov. 9th[/h][h=3]NBA[/h]NEW ORLEANS (-7) over Charlotte
8:05 p.m. --
Our FREE PICK selections have gone 44-26 (63%) since September 1st.
Two of the Association's youngest teams battle in the Big Easy tonight but only one of the teams is welcoming back two of it's best players, is playing at home where they have been the NBA's best home team to bet dating back to the final month of last season and are coming off a humiliating loss and should be ready to roll and get that bad taste out of their mouths tonight. New Orleans should have overall #1 pick Anthony Davis, who has missed the last two games with a slight concussion, and fellow first rounder Austin Rivers, who missed the last game with a sprained finger, back in the line-up. Hornets have gone 11-1 ATS at home dating back to last season and are coming off a humiliating performance on Wednesday when they were held to a franchise record low 62 points in losing to Philadelphia 77-62 without both Davis and Rivers. They also catch Charlotte without the services of last years leading scorer Gerald Henderson who is sidelined for the next three weeks with a foot injury. Hornets buzz past Bobcats tonight.

Pitt -3.5 (to win 2 Units) - Pitt appears for the minute to have turned the corner. They have looked good in back to back weeks despite the loss to Notre Dame last time out. Both teams play defense well but Uconn's inept offense is the reason Pitt wins easily.
NCAAB
Florida -4 (to win 1.5 Units) - Florida returns with Boynton who is as solid as it gets. Georgetown will hold their own, but Florida looks too good in primetime tonight.
NBA
Memphis -7 (to win 2 Units) - Appears linesmaker is trying to suck us in for Houston as a +7. This line shouldnt be this high, but Memphis is solid at home, ride Memphis tonight.

Michigan State (-7½) over Connecticut
6:05 PM -- Ramstein Air Base - Germany
Michigan State (0-0) -7 ½ over Connecticut (0-0)
Prediction: Michigan State by 12-13
Starting Time: 5:35
TV: ESPN
Played at Ramstein Air Base, Reinland, Germany
Comments: Michigan State has every single edge in this game. The Spartans are more talented, taller, faster, quicker and experienced than is Connecticut, a former power that has been stood on its head since last season. First of all, coach Jim Calhoun is gone, replaced by one of his assistants, Kevin Ollie who has never been a head coach. It is of note the suits at Connecticut were so uncertain about Ollie’s ability they gave him but a one-year contract prove himself. But that is just the beginning of possible problems for the Huskies. Connecticut saw four players leave the team and transfer after it was announced it could not make it to the post-season this year because it had failed to meet NCAA graduation standards. In short, Michigan State is everything Connecticut is not and should dominate in this one.

Bucknell (+5½) over Purdue
7:00 PM -- Mackey Arena
Bucknell (0-0) +5½ over PURDUE (0-0)
Prediction: Bucknell by 3-4
Starting Time: 7:05
TV: Big Ten Network
Comments: Bucknell is one of college basketball’s giant killers. In recent years, they have knocked teams such as Kansas out in the NCAA Tournament and last season, while playing in the NBA, went to powerful Arizona in the opening round of the NIT and won. Bucknell returns four of five starters and nine of its top 10 players from last year’s 25-10 team and the figures say the Bison can get it done in West Lafayette tonight. Purdue will never be any team’s easy out, especially at home, but is in a rebuilding mode and may at times have as many as four true freshmen on the court. Experience should get it done tonight for the Bison.

Creighton (-10) over North Texas
8:05 PM -- Century Link Center
CREIGHGTON (0-0) -10 over North Texas (0-0)
Prediction: Creighton by 16-17
Starting Time: 8:05
No TV
Comments: Creighton has its best basketball team ever, returning nine of its top 10 players from last season’s 29-6 team and being blessed with the presence of 6-8 junior forward Doug McDermott (22.9 points and 8.8 rebounds per game last season and who is the school’s first first-team All American ever. The Blue Jays are definitely a top 10 team—maybe even a top five squad—and have all the tools to dominate North Texas in this one. It also is of note Creighton has had great practices leading up to this game and is ready to fire its best shot from the get-go.

La Lakers (-6½) over Warriors
10:30 PM -- STAPLES Center
LOS ANGELES LAKERS (1-4) -6 ½ over Golden State Warriors (3-2)
Prediction: Lakers by 13-14
Starting Time: 10:35
TV: Comcast Sports San Francisco Bay area, Sports South, CWCS Los Angeles
Comments: The Los Angeles Lakers are much better than their record and have most of the edges in this game with Golden State, which will again be without injured center Andrew Bogut. With Bogut out, the Warriors have no one to slow down Lakers’ center Dwight Howard who is averaging 22.4 points and 9.6 rebounds per game and tonight can dominate the paint. I also like the fact the Lakers are in major bounce-back mode after playing a terrible game two nights ago at the Utah Jazz and you can take it to the bank Los Angeles—tired of losing—will come out with fire in its eye tonight. It also has not been lost on me the Lakers are 4-0 in their last three meetings with Golden State and 17-1 in the last 18. The good Lakers will show up tonight.

Pittsburgh (-3) over Connecticut
8:00 PM -- Rentschler Field
Pittsburgh (4-5) -3 over CONNECTICUT (3-6)
Prediction: Pittsburgh by 9-10
Played in East Hartford, Connecticut
Played at Rentscher Field (40,000) Grass
Starting Time: 8:05
TV: ESPN2
Comments: Pittsburgh, which comes into this game off a triple-overtime 29-26 loss last Saturday at Notre Dame, is the complete football team and that should make the difference in this Big East contest. The Panthers are blessed with an outstanding quarterback in senior Tino Sunseri (181-of-236 passes for 2,363 yards, 14 touchdowns, with just four interceptions), senior running back Ray Graham who averages 134.14 yards per game (second best average in the country) and junior wide-receiver Devin Street who leads the conference in receptions and who averages 81.1 yards per game. This is a giant edge for Pitt as it faces a team has little offensive and an inability to score. Connecticut comes into this game riding a four-game losing streak and for the season has averaged just 16.6 points per game—a figure that ranks the Huskies 117th of 120 teams in scoring. In its four straight losses, Connecticut has scored just three touchdowns. Pitt is at the top of its game and should dominate this one from start to finish, even though it is facing a tough Huskies defense that gives up just 290.2 yards per game (9th best in the country). If Pitt can go nose-to-nose with Notre Dame, which also is an outstanding defensive team, they most certainly can do it against Connecticut.
Clear. Winds blowing from the Northwest at 5-10 m.p.h. Game-time temperature: Near 45.
