Luck Be a Lady. Picks 1/16

Luck be a lady tonight.
Not the prettiest game of basketball from what I can gather. Oh well, the winning teams will take it.

Results 1/15 

Milwaukee (-6.5) over New York.
Bucks won by 16. Won $190

Oklahoma City (-1.5) over Houston.
Rockets won by 11. Lost $100

Cleveland (-6.0) over Los Angeles Lakers.
Cavs won by 7. Won $190

Totals: Bets: $300.  Winnings: $380.   NET: +$80

January Total: +$925

So I only didn't hit on the game that had two good teams in it (I consider the Cavs a good team, not a very good team, mind you).
 Still in the positives, though, and that's what's important (-ish?)

Tons of games tonight (13), this could potentially be a disaster for me. Quick hits.

The Games 1/16 Odds are 1.90 unless otherwise noted.

 Washington (-10.0) over Brooklyn. Washington is good, Brooklyn is not.

Detroit (+1.0) over Indiana. Indiana is weirdly vulnerable at home. Detroit looks to get back to winning.

Memphis (-6.0) over Orlando. Memphis is still getting used to their upgrade at small forward and Orlando is an excellent candidate to help them figure it out.

New Orleans (-7.0) over Philadelphia. New Orleans had an excellent game the other day and they're only favored by 7. I like that.

Atlanta (-1.0) over Toronto. I just don't see the Raptors winning this game, they've been a little subpar and Atlanta has been great.

Chicago (-5.0) over Boston. I'm just waiting for Chicago to figure it out. They haven't yet, but maybe soon?

Golden State (-1.5) over Oklahoma City. The Thunder played last night and the Warriors did not. Golden State should win be decent margin despite the home court advantage.

Denver (+8.5) over Dallas. I like Denver to keep it close, though any game the Nuggets play is really a crapshoot.

San Antonio (-4.5) over Portland. We'll see about this one...

Utah (-7.5) over Los Angeles Lakers. Big line for two bad teams but the Lakers played last night and Utah has looked okay recenly.

Phoenix (-13.5) over Minnesota. Betting against my team. Phoenix is good and likes to blow teams out. Minnesota is not good and likes to get blown out. I like my chances.

Sacramento (-3.5) over Miami. This is more of schedule bet. Miami is finishing up their West Coast road trip and we'll see how fresh they look.

Los Angeles (-8.0) over Cleveland. I want to take the Cavs with that line but they didn't prove anything yesterday. Not being able to put away the Lakers is a bad sign for a team that has to turn around the next day and play the Clippers.
