"Always buy the extra half-point"
Two days off did “The Picker” some good.
He hit his only play yesterday, when the Sacramento Kings were 4 1/2 point favorites in Charlotte and won by 26.
If only they all were that easy.
“The Picker” now has a record of 19-17-2, and he is taking it light again tonight and making only a single pick.
We also have another visit from Gus Forrest, who went 3-2 yesterday with both his misses coming on the Orlando-Denver game, where he liked the Magic getting 10 points in a low-scoring affair. As noted before, when Gus misses, he misses big.
Gus has gone 2-1, 2-1 and 3-2 in his three nights as a guest picker. Tonight, he is making 3 more picks.

“The Picker” likes the 76ers giving 9 1/2 points in Newark against the Nets.
Mr. Forest likes the under on Washington-Charlotte (190 1/2), the over on San Antonio-Portland (207.5) and the Pacers giving 7 points to the Pistons.
