Tuesday Feb 2nd Picks

Hey there guys, it was a bit of a rough day for me yesterday. I went 4-3 in the NBA as Miami fell on their face at home against Milwaukee (one of the worst road teams in the NBA) the Hornets, without Chris Paul, lost to Phoenix, and Memphis upset the Lakers despite Kobe becoming the Lakers all time leading leading scorer, passing Jerry West. Well today we've got an SEC Basketball game with Ole Miss at Kentucky, and some solid NBA and NHL games as well. As always guys let me know what you think.

Preview: This game comes down to defense. The numbers give Kentucky a very slight edge on offense but if the rebels have a good day shooting than they are even. This game really comes down to defense. And in Scoring D Kentucky 5 > Ole Miss 9. Rebounding D Kentucky 2 > Ole Miss 11. Opponents FG% Kentucky 2 > Ole Miss 4. I have to go with Kentucky.
