Denver Nuggets vs. Memphis Grizzlies
Free Pick: Under 214 (March 13th 2010 – Jeff Alexander)
Denver isn’t nearly the same offensive juggernaut on the road that it is at home. In fact, the Nuggets are averaging just 102.6 ppg on the road, 5 points below their season average. And Memphis is only scoring 100.7 ppg at home. With this in mind, I’d say we’re getting some pretty good value with the Under with this line. The Under is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Memphis and 7-2 in the last 9 meetings overall. The Under is also 4-0 in the Nuggets’ last 4 road games and 20-6 in the Grizzlies’ last 26 games as a home underdog of 4.5 or fewer points. We’ll take the Under.

Richmond vs. Xavier
Free Pick: Xavier -4 (March 13th 2010 – Big Al McMordie)
At 3:25 pm, our complimentary selection is on the Xavier Musketeers minus the points over Richmond. No other conference tournament in the country has gone as much to the Favorites, as the Atlantic 10 Tournament. This year, the “chalk” is a modest 4-3, but dating back 20 seasons, the Atlantic 10 Tourney has seen favorites go 99-37 ATS when laying less than 13 points if their opponent is not off a win by more than 13 points. This afternoon, Xavier is favored over Richmond, who won its last game by just five points, so let’s lay the small number with the Musketeers on Saturday. Good luck, as always…Big Al McMordie.

Dayton vs. Xavier
Free Pick: Xavier -2.5 (March 12th 2010 – Rob Vinciletti)
On Friday the Free play is on Xavier. Game 838 at 6:30 eastern. The Musketeers have some solid angles poiting to them in this game. They are 9-1 with revenge for a road loss, including 3-0 since 1997 for a loss of 20 or more. In the last 10 games vs winning teams they have won 8 times. They are 21-2 as a favorite this year and 12-3 with rest of 5 or 6 days. The past few seasons they have delivered as a short neutral court favorite, going 4-0 straight up and against the spread at -3 or less. Dayton is just 1-5 vs high scoring teams who average more than 76 points per game and have lost 6 of 7 times as an underdog this year. Xavier, a solid take tonight. On the Friday card I have a rare 6 unit 31-4 NBA Dominator system + a 98% cutting edge conference tournament TV Blowout system, that leads a solid card. The Big 12 game cashed with Kansas St and the XX-Large play cashed with Northwestern on Thursday. More damage on Friday. For the free play on Friday take Xavier. RV
