GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS – LOS ANGELES LAKERS

According to the New York Times pages, Golden State (20-27) has some problems as two important players are out tonight: Stephen Curry nursing a right ankle sprain and Nate Robinson sidelined with a strained right hamstring.

Las time Los Angeles (30-19)  met the Golden State, the Lakers defeated 97-90 the Warriors. By the way, Los Angeles has won 13 of the last 14 meetings against this team. Anyway, I have 4 bets lost in a row, losing 30.00 units in the LAST 7 days. It’s time I return to win some money. I bet on a Lakers win.

CLIPPERS – HORNETS PREVIEW

NBA
Regular Season
Tuesday, March 27, 2012 – 04:30 cet

LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS – NEW ORLEANS HORNETS

The LA Clippers (27-21) some days ago lost in New Orleans. This is the point I want to underline while I am set to choose the Hornets for this match. By the way, in that match Los Angeles shot 38.9 percent while New Orleans converted at a season-best 57.6. Rumors from Los Angeles suggest that Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro is not set to be confirmed for next season.

The New Orleans Hornets (12-36)  will be without Jason Smith, who was suspended for his cheap shot on Blake Griffin.

NEW ORLEANS (+9.5) @ 1.87

RESULT: Clippers – Hornets 97-85

Regular Season
Monday, March 26, 2012 – 04:30 cet

LOS ANGELES LAKERS – MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES

The Lakers (30-18) have a wonderful 20-3 record at Staples Center. This is the third and final meeting this season between the two teams. The Lakers have beaten Memphis three straight times, including both matchups this season.

The Grizzlies (25-10)  have lost six of eight since an 11-2 stretch and are starting to slip in the Western Conference standings. As we can read in the New York Times pages the coach Lionel Hollins is really dsapponted by this situation: ”It’s very disturbing because we don’t have a rhythm.”

MARQUETTE – FLORIDA PREVIEW

NCAA
West Regional  – Round 4
Friday, March 23, 2012 – 03:17 cet

MARQUETTE GOLDEN EAGLES – FLORIDA GATORS

Marquette (27-7) are the third seeded and  ready for this match in the West regional semifinals as Buzz Williams’ team ccome off two strong finishes against BYU and Murray State.

Florida (25-10) is still without forward Will Yeguete because of a foot injury suffered in February. Florida is the seventh seeded and they are a dangerous team. Anyway, in my opinion, Marquette is able to stop Gators 3 point shooters and to win the match.

MONTEPASCHI – OLYMPIACOS PREVIEW

EUROLEAGUE
Playoff  – Game 1
Wednesday, March 21, 2012 – 20:45 cet

MONTEPASCHI SIENA – OLYMPIACOS PIREAUS

Siena (12-4) is a strong team with great experience. The italian team is still without Rimantas Kaukenas, but the coach Simone Pianigiani has already shown he is ready to solve this problem.
Probable starters: McCalebb, Thornton, Moss, Stonerook, Andersen.

Olympiacos (9-7) is the underdog in this playoff series. In my opinion they can get a win when they will play in Athens, but I don’t see any chance for the Greek team in Siena. As you live in Italy, you can watch the game live on TV channel Sportitalia.
Probable starters: Mantzaris, Spanoulis, Papanikolau, Antic, Dorsey.

SIENA @ 1.25
stake 4/100

RESULT: Siena – Olympiacos 75-82
♦ money line bet: lost (- 4.00 units)

KHIMKI – LOKOMOTIV PREVIEW

EUROCUP
Quarter Final  – Game 1
Tuesday, March 20, 2012 – 16:00 cet

Khimki Moscow – Lokomotiv Kuban
Khimki (11-1) is still unbeaten at home. Khimki and Lokomotiv already met in Russian League this season with Khimki prevailing at home, but losing in Kuban.

Lokomotiv (8-4)  this season won five of its six away game in Eurocup. I have no doubts this is a strong team, but anyway, not strong enough to win in Moscow! By the way, I go on betting only micro stakes in these days: stake 3/100 is my choise for this match. You can watch this match live in TV channel Eurosport 2.

Khimki Moscow @ 1.15
stake 3/100

RESULT: Khimki – Lokomotiv 81-72
♦ money line bet: won (+0.45 units)

Have a nice weekend!

Brindisi – Piacenza 69-66

+1.11 units for me!

See you on Monday! 

BRINDISI – PIACENZA PREVIEW

ITALIAN LEGADUE
Regular Season – Matchday 24
Friday, March 16, 2012 – 21:00 cet

Enel Brindisi – Morpho Piacenza
Brindisi (14-8) is in 4th place in Legadue table, a good position, but this club is chasing 1st position as they want to be promoted in Serie A at the end of the season.Just few weeks ago Brindisi won Coppa Italia, a throphy reserved to the best 4 league teams..

Piacenza (10-11)  is in 8th place and their target is a playoff spot. Last 5 games: 2 win and 3 lost for Piacenza. This team is not a top team of Legadue. I see they can lose tonight at PalaPentassuglia of Brindisi.

Brindisi @ 1.37
stake 3/100

RESULT: Brindisi – Piacenza 69-66
♦ money line bet: won (+1.11 units)
