“The Picker” picks a game on which line has been moving

We’ve got cool stuff on this site, including a Scores and Statistics tab that includes an “Odds” section that shows which lines have moved, and by how much.

Tonight, for instance, the Clippers opened as 5-point favorites over the Timberwolves in Minnesota, and the line has jumped all the way to 7 1/2 — the most movement of any of the NBA games on the board tonight.

“The Picker” is one of the people making it move, as he likes the Clippers giving the 7 1/2 points tonight as one of his two picks.

He also is selecting the Heat, who are 1 1/2 point underdogs in Chicago against the Bulls.

He also advises to always buy the extra half-point. Always.

If you check out last night’s picks from “The Picker,” you will find two entries in the comments section from the man himself.

The one that carries the most weight: “Now hitting 67% of my picks w/ a great 2-0-1 night tonight (actually 2-1 – CS) for my first week on here. That includes my worst day of my year of betting within that week. AND i’m still at 67%! Boom let’s make some money people!

As we always caution, do what you want with this guy’s information, but understand that we do not condone or endorse illegal gambling. For those of you in Nevada or outside of the United States, different standards apply.

Last night, “The Picker” liked Indiana giving 8 1/2 points to Cleveland, the Knicks getting 4 1/2 points from the Bucks, and the Celtics on the money line (5/3 odds). The Pacers failed to cover, but the other two picks hit to increase his record to 10-6-1.

Some background for those of you new to this site feature.

I do a lot of conversing with followers via direct messaging on Twitter, even though I only follow one guy.

“The Picker” has been sending me messages throughout the season when he has been particularly good with his picks, which is quite often. So I challenged him to make his picks public, and we’d see where going down that road together would take us. So stay tuned.
