2/19 - 5* IVY LEAGUE GOY PRINCETON
This is Sal Devito. For my 5* IVY LEAGUE GOY I am playing on The Princeton Tigers over the Yale Bulldogs. Princeton Comes into tonights game boasting a 9-2 ATS Mark their L11 and an overall 11-4 ATS mark on the year. The Tigers are 6-1 ATS when the total is listed at 119.5 or lower, 6-1 ATS TY as a Favorite and 6-1 ATS TY against conf opponents . Princeton is 7-1 ATS againts teams with a losing reacord. They are 6-1 SU in conference and should have no problem covering the double digit number against Yale. Yale comes in at 4-4 in conference. They have covered 4 games in a row and on paper this looks like this could be a close game. I beg to differ. Dan Mavraides had a breakout game last time out shooting 50% from the field w/3 3pters and I expect him to be the guy to watch tonight. Yale will have a tough time getting the boards as the bigger team prevails tonight - Lay the wood. Best of Luck Sal Devito

San Antonio/Philadelphia Under 192
When ANY NBA Team Played as Road team as a Favorite - with 1 day off - Vs Atlantic opponent - Coming off a Win over Eastern Central opponent - Allowed 90 or less points AGAINST in their last game; the UNDER is 11-5-0 for the Road Fave (SA) in this spot. Take the UNDER.

Tony George
San Antonio -3.5
Looks like a set up line here, but looking at the injury issues for Philly, especially in the backcourt, and Tony Parker playing well and back in the lineup for the Spurs, I like them on the road tonight. They have been on a long stretch of road games, I look for them to expose a bad Philly team with 9 wins at home all year. The Spurs playing MUCH better defense and defend the perimeter well. Too much for Philly. Play 1 Unit on San Antonio.

Cavs at Bobcats
Pick: Over 191
The addition of Antawn Jamison should make the Cavs a more offensive team and we’ll take the over in his debut.
The fact that the Cavs went to OT last night against the Nuggets and lost should also lead to a more offensive game. Cleveland is 6-0 OU when they allowed at least ten points more than their season-to-date average for two straight games, 4-0 OU (+13.5 ppg) as a road favorite with no rest after a game in which they shot at least 50% from the field and 6-0 OU (+9.1 ppg) as a favorite off a loss that broke at least a five-game winning streak. It is also worth mentioning that Cleveland is 7-0 OU after playing the Nuggets, going over by an average of 16.1 ppg.
Charlotte is off a terrible 103-94 loss to the Nets as a big home favorite. New Jersey shot 51.9% from the field and pulled the upset despite a team-leading 21 points from Gerald Wallace on 7-of-14 shooting. This strongly points to the OVER here. The Bobcats are 7-0 OU (+11.0 ppg) with at least a day of rest after a loss in which Gerald Wallace was the Bobcats' high scorer and 9-0 OU as a home dog with at least one day of rest after a game at home in which they allowed at least 50% from the field, eclipsing the total by an average of an unbelievable 23.3 ppg.
This is a revenge game for Cleveland, as the Bobcats upset them in Cleveland in early January. This is relevant because the Cavaliers are 4-0 OU (+23.4 ppg) as a road favorite when seeking revenge for a loss in which Mo Williams did not play and 7-0 OU (17.7 ppg) on the road when seeking revenge for a home loss in which Lebron James took more than 20 shots.
Let’s go OVER this relatively low number.

Steven Budin-CEO FRIDAY'S PLAY 25 Dime Release
Cornell minus the points at Harvard. $,.The game tips off at 7:00 P.M. Eastern. This is their 14th play the past three years, and fifth this season, of which they are 3-1 so far (all of which I've brought you).
BOUGHT,PAID AND CONFIRMED----GL GUYS
They beat Harvard by 36 points at home on 1/30/10 and the line is only 3 with the public all over Cornell?? Budin has lost his last 2 but isn't he pretty much 50% in bball the last couple years? I think he is below 50% in bball this year. Odd that he would not wait until tomorrow with a larger card to make a play.

Tonight in the NBA I’m playing the trend I mentioned a few days ago, betting on teams that are trying to keep or improve their playoff position against teams that are just putting in the time, drawing a check, and wishing for the off-season. Plus, I believe there’s an edge in the line for all three games and I’m going with the advantage.
Take the Milwaukee Bucks in Pick’em game at Detroit Pistons. This is one of many tough matchups in the NBA tonight. Detroit has owned the Bucks 2 of 3 games this year, including a Pistons 93-81 win on Feb. 9 in Milwaukee. But, the Pistons are done for the season and the Bucks are sitting in the 9th spot in the East, two games behind Charlotte. In spite of their 20-year-old rookie Brandon Jennings hitting a scoring slump in January, the Bucks have won 6 of their last 10, and beat the spread 7 of those games. They win against the spread almost 60% of the time on the Road. The Bucks see the weak teams in the last 3 spots in the East and made a move this week for more offense picking up Point Guard John Salmons, who will make his Bucks debut tonight. There is an edge here with the line (Pick’em), which should be favoring Milwaukee by at least a point. Take the Bucks to Win.
Take Toronto Raptors -2 at the New Jersey Nets. The line in this game has been hard hit by the absence of Chris Bosh, who will not travel to New Jersey with the team because of a sprained ankle. What should be an 8 or 9 point line for the Raptors to Cover has been shrunk to 2. Can the Raptors do a “no Kobe, no problem”? I think so. Toronto, now 5th in the East, went into the All-Star Break one of the hottest teams in the league winning 8 of 9. They lost a tough overtime game after the break to the up and down Memphis Grizzlies. The Nets are still on pace to finish with the worst record in NBA history and they’re one of the leagues worst at covering the spread at home (36%). The Raptor know how to win; expect Hedo Turkoglu to step up and cover the soft line. Take the Raptors and the Points.
Take New Orleans Hornets -4 at Home vs. Indiana Pacers. How good are the New Orleans Hornets without Chris Paul? They’ve lost 5 of 8 games since the All-Star went down with injury, but those losses included some of the best teams in the NBA – Utah, Orlando, Oklahoma City, and Phoenix. In this stretch, they also lost to Philadelphia at home, but the 76ers play surprisingly tough on the Road. The three teams they beat: Boston by 8 Points, Charlotte by 5 Points, and Memphis by 7. The Hornets set in the 10th spot in the West right now, four games behind Portland (the 8th seed); they expect Chris Paul to return this season and they want to be in contention when he does. Tonight they’re playing the Indiana Pacers who are just trying to finish out the season; the same Pacers they beat in Indiana in January (with Paul). The line in this game is soft because of an overreaction to the losses in this Paul-less stretch. Expect the Hornets to Cover tonight.
