A Time For Thanks.....

After a brief hiatus from blogging, I am back with a new found passion. Not since my epic 2006-07 Bowl Season run(Boise State over Oklahoma moneyline and +7, Florida moneyline over Ohio State), have I felt this in the zone. Furthermore, the Propick team has really upped their collective game, thanks in part to Mike "Big Daddy" Powell and Boston cultural legend JWhip. Both Powell and Jwhip have finely honed their college and NBA gaming acumen and have been dropping winners like confetti at the Puerto Rican Day Parade.

For those of you living under a rock the past few years both Big Daddy and JWhip are former College athletes. While Whip tortured defensive backs up and down the east coast (yes, he was that dude wearing #7), Powell was busy posterizing opposing small forwards during his division I reign of terror in the early-mid 1990's. Why is this relevant? As a result of their past athletic success, both these men aspire to conquer the world of sports handicapping. Now please do not get carried away, neither of these men are in the class of myself, however they are pretty damn close.

After scouring tonight's matchups I found two NBA contests that should deliver the goods. With Thanksgiving just two days away, I feel the added burden which comes with the trappings of my recent success. Knicks -2.5 over the Bobcats. The Knicks eventually need to play better at home and who better to beat up on than the lowly Bobcats? Furthermore, expect point guard Raymond Felton to unleash a can of whoop ass on his old team, who dropped him like a bad rash.

Cavaliers +5 over Indiana. The common man can hardly contain himself upon seeing this line. Let us review: last night Indiana beat up on Miami, on the road no less and now are back home playing the pourous Cavs. Using such OBVIOUS logic, the common man can only draw one illogical conclusion....Indiana should win by twenty. Listen, if life was this easy everyone would be rich. The discipline is to fade concensus and that means takings the Cavs +5 tonight.
