Heat live dog was a good call even though I took the candy. Hornets made tough shots at the end of regulation.
Agree on Magic to beat my Sixers but the line is fishy.
UP AND OVER WHAT??????????????????????
Curry is done. I am on Clippers laying short number
I like the format.

Steve "50%" Merrill struck again with the play-in games on Tuesday. You are going to need to do a lot better than 50% to make up for the disaster in the Final Four and championship game.
I thought that the NBA would treat your analysis better but the early returns from Tuesday suggests that it may be a case where losing the juice is the best case scenario for Steve. Hopefully Wednesday treats you and your paid subscribers better than your Tuesday and your Final Four run.
I thibk play-offs are good. No need to change
7:31 Steve, there are articles out there saying Curry will be on a minutes restriction even though it's a do-or-die game (same with Horford and Porzingis). One article said he'll play less than 40 mins and another suggested the most he'll play is 32 mins. In the 4 games he's played since returning, he has not played more than 29 mins. I guess Golden State has given up. It's the end of an era before they even play the last game of the era.

Hmmmmm, the Magic just lost to the Celtics B team & nobody sat for the Magic….? I'm not touching this game & it would be in Steve's best interests if he just admitted he had no clue who was gonna win, but I get he "thinks" he needs to pick every game to appease his viewers? Pick the games you feel really good about, walk away from those you have no clue, no guarantees but at least you know you're following your heart & your head
Yeahhhππππ
