NBA & NHL picks...

25-17, +$845

NBA

New Orleans/Washington Over 187, laying $110 to win $100 -- Washington has gone Under 10 straight and in the 19 1/2 years that I have in my NBA database, there have only been 4 teams that have hit an Under 11 and the last occurence was the Pacers in late March of 2003...No team has had an Under 12 in the last 19-plus seasons...All the Hornets trends point to the Under here, but Washington is 3-1 to the Over on back-enders and 1-0 to the Over when they and their opponent are both on a back-ender this season...Besides, the Wizards' game yesterday had the 2nd fastest PACE of the 8 games played, but turnovers and bad shooting was the reason it stayed Under...

NHL

Washington/Pittsburgh Under 5.5, +110, laying $100 to win $110 -- I don't believe any of these outdoor NHL games in recent years have gone Under...I am going from memory and may be wrong, but I believe they have all stayed Under...It is unseasonably warm in Pittsburgh today and I wonder if this will effect the condition of the ice...It may be choppy or slow, it may be fine, but the recent trends for these 2 teams point to the Under and it actually is a chart-play to the Under for these 2 teams head-to-head as the last game went Under after 8 straight Overs...
