Lenny Del Genio's NBA Sunday Night **BAILOUT** Show Details |
| Game: |
Golden State Warriors Vs. Houston Rockets |
| Date: |
02/12/12 9:05 pm ET |
| Type: |
Points Spread |
Pick: |
Golden State Warriors |
| Reason: |
Play on Golden State at 9:05 ET. With both teams entering in off a rare 2 days rest, we're playing the home/road dichotomy in this Western Conference matchup. The Warriors come off a nice outright win as a six-point dog Thursday night in Denver. The game before that saw them upset OKC here at home, their third straight win at Oracle Arena and fourth in five games. They have shot 55% and 51% in their last two games. Houston is a shaky road team despite three straight victories away from home. They lost 8 of their first 11 road games w/ the only wins coming against sub-.500 foes. This will be their fifth road game in a row overall and we seee that cashing up with them . Rockets leading scorer Kevin Martin has really struggled on this road trip w/ only 16 pts total on 19.2% shooting, which includes 0 for 9 from three-point range. Steph Curry and Monta Ellis give Golden State an edge in the backcourt. Golden State is our NBA Sunday Night **BAILOUT**. |

Detroit Pistons Vs. New Jersey Nets |

Points Spread |
Pick: |
Detroit Pistons |
| Reason: |
Play on Detroit at 7:35 ET. This would be the third meetings in the L10 days between these two teams. Detroit has covered the first two. We were on 'em February 1st when they went to New Jersey and covered as 5.5-point dogs in a 99-96 loss. They then beat the Nets outright by a nearly identical score (99-92) as three-point dogs Wednesday, again in New Jersey. Now, for the first time, the Pistons get to play host. Once upon a time, these were the two best teams in the Eastern Conference. That seems like eons ago. Lawrence Frank was the coach of the Nets back then; now he's on the Detroit bench. The Pistons are playing much better than the Nets right now w/ four straight ATS wins (won 3 in a row SU) while New Jersey has lost four in a row. Ben Gordon returned to the lineup in Wednesday's win to score 14 pts on 6 of 7 shooting. Will Bynum may return for tonight's game and at least the Pistons are playing with some confidence according to some recent player quotes we've read. Take Nets PG Deron Williams away and the Nets have little else to offer. They are just 7-18 ATS the L25 times taking six pts or less on the road. Detroit is our NBA **LATE UPDATE**

Lenny Del Genio's 25* Playoff Total of the Year (w/ BONUS PROP) Show Details |
| Game: |
New England Patriots Vs. New York Giants |
| Date: |
02/05/12 6:30 pm ET |
| Type: |
Over - Under |
| Reason: |
Play Under NY Giants/New England at 6:30 ET. This number opened as the second highest O/U in Super Bowl history. The highest came two years ago in the Colts/Saints game, which we won w/ the Under. Keep in mind that it wasn't really as close as the 31-19 final indicated as New Orleans returned an INT late for a TD. The only other time time we've seen a Super Bowl w/ a total open at 55 or higher was the first Giants/Pats Super Bowl of four seasons ago, which also went way Under. In fact, there were only 10 points scored in the entire first half and 31 points scored in the game (21 in the 4th quarter)! Despite last year's Steelers/Packers Super Bowl going Over the total (which was ANOTHER winning ticket for us), the Under is 5-2 the last seven Super Bowls, predictable b/c the public loves to bet the Over, particularly in high profile games they will be watching. The Super Bowl winner has not scored more than 32 points in eight years. The New England offense was far more prolific four years ago with both QB Brady and WR Moss setting NFL records. You will hear all week about how bad the Pats defense is, but they are 15th in points allowed, 14th in sacks and third in total takeaways. The Giants have the kind of front four that can bother Brady, much like they did in Super Bowl 42. These teams met in the regular season and the game was SCORELESS at halftime. As we've repeated ad nauseum throughout this NFL season, rematches tend to be lower scoring than the original. The regular season meeting ended up as a 24-20 final in favor of the Giants and that's w/ a GW TD pass by Eli Manning in the closing minute. That was one of six games New England went Under this year. Others included LW vs. Baltimore as well as Pittsburgh, two other physical opponents, like the Giants. Under Super Bowl 46 is our 25* Playoff Total of the Year.
FREE BONUS PROP: We are recommending that you wager on the 4th quarter being the highest scoring quarter at +220 odds. This cashed for us last year as 18 total pts were scored in the final quarter between the Packers & Steelers. Dating back to the last time the Pats & Giants met in the Super Bowl, there has been a disproportionate amount of scoring in the fourth quarter. There have been 185 total points scored in the last four Super Bowls; 77 of those points have been scored in the fourth quarter, or 41% of all scoring. It's been 18, 15, 24, 21 pts scored in those fourth quarters. Again, when these teams met in the regular season, the game was SCORELESS at the half. The last Super Bowl meeting saw 10 total pts scored in the first three quarters. Take 4th quarter (+220) to be the highest scoring quarter in SB 46. |

| Game: |
Washington State Vs. USC |
| Date: |
02/02/12 10:00 pm ET |
| Type: |
Points Spread |
Pick: |
Washington State |
| Reason: |
Play on Washington State at 10:00 ET. Wazzu got some bad news earlier in the week when it was learned that the team's second leading scorer Faisal Aden would be lost for the season. This on the heels of BB losses to the Arizona teams on the road. Now they return home to Pullman, where they are 7-1 this season, and this looks like a good spot. USC comes in as the lowest scoring team in the Pac 12 (54 ppg) and had lost nine in a row before getting sorry Utah at home over the weekend. They scored 50 pts or less six times during that stretch. In the long run, Aden's absence may actually help the Cougars as he took a lot of bad shots, which will now no longer be taken. Speaking of injuries, USC has lost multiple starters this season, the latest being 7-footer DeWayne Dedmon. The Trojans are 3-13 ATS off a double digit home win. Washington State is our CBB **LATE NIGHT BAILOUT** |

Lenny Del Genio's NBA **LATE NIGHT BAILOUT** (13-0 Run) Show Details |
| Game: |
Golden State Warriors Vs. Sacramento Kings |
| Date: |
01/31/12 10:35 pm ET |
| Type: |
Points Spread |
Pick: |
Sacramento Kings |
| Reason: |
Play on Sacramento at 10:35 ET. This is an overlay w/ the Warriors finding themselves favored in a price range that quite frankly they're unaccustomed to being in. Remember that Golden State is just 6-12 SU on the season, just two games ahead of Sacramento in the loss column, yet they are favored by more than two three's here. We're not sure if Mark Jackson is the right fit in Oakland, trying to preach defense to a team devoid of it. All this new mentality has done is limit the Warriors one true advantage, scoring. They are down to 96.3 PPG, nearly 10 PPG fewer than last season. Speaking of coaching, Kings HC Keith Smart was the interim coach in Golden State last year, replacing the tired Don Nelson and leading the Warriors to a respectable record. Yet, Smart was fired for his troubles and you can bet he hasn't forgotten. GSW is only 1-3 SU/ATS when favored this season, having only covered when catching Portland in the third game in three nights. This is the most points Golden State has been laying in any game this season - by a three-point margin. They are not that much better than Sacramento, who has won at San Antonio previously as 10.5-pt dogs. This is just the fifth time the Warriors have been laying more than seven points since the start of 2009. Sacramento is our NBA **LATE NIGHT BAILOUT** |
