Come on now guys... I've had some luck, just on a hot streak.  I actually feel like I made a big brain fart with Parker.... completely overlooked that he's up against the Cavs D tonight, and after the Cavs were embarrassed last night.  I already had to change my pick once, and I fear what sort of humiliating type face and font I'd have to use if I changed it again... so I'm sticking with him.

I was going to say that earlier... but I didn't want to let you know that I thought you made a mistake. The Cavs play great defense so I doubt Tony Parker will score enough. Then again you probably called the Cavs defense and told them to go easy on Tony Parker ahead of time and you'll still win anyways. Oh well!

I thought about taking Parker too. Now BT really regrets that pick giving my track record.

Yep... oh well.  If Duncan is out I still like my chances.

Didn't want to say anything until it locked at 7 ET... but I really like the pick shiggins (I seem to say that to you a lot).  No Crawford and no Ellis tonight... normally that would leave like 1 or 2 easy picks for a team, but the Warriors still have like 4 **** scoring swingmen...

I think any pick of Azuikuke, Jackson, Maggette, or even Belinelli could be a great pick tonight.

My choices tonight were between Robinson, Marion, and Bargnani... Hopefully Robinson does great and the other two do terrible so I don't start second guessing myself like I did last night.

Awww, thanks Redz.  I ran some quick stats on my picks (I like numbers and had some free time)...

Wins: 4
2nd Place: 2
3rd Place: 2
4th or worse: 2
Positive scores: 8
Negative scores: 1  (one = 0)
Average score: +7.35

Luck or skill?  Not sure yet... this is turning into this year's ProTrade challenge (IndeedProceed knows what I'm talking about  ;))
