NBA Featured Game and Free Facebook $100 Contest: Celtics at Bulls

NBA Featured Game and Free $100 Facebook Contest Game: Boston Celtics at Chicago Bulls

With a spread of less than two points, it looks like we picked a great one for our Facebook competition. No screen shot today (new computer, no software for it just yet), but I’ll explain everything you need to know in text. Voters seem to favor the Bulls, but I’m on the Boston Celtics.

The Chicago Bulls are

 home, but they’re in the second game of a back to back and their offense struggled when healthy. Given the defensive nature of the Boston Celtics and their fantastic coaching and leadership, I do not see the Bulls finding a way to suddenly score against Boston. I trust Boston to contain Chicago’s mediocre scorers, and I expect Boston to play with more energy than a tired Bulls team.

Secondly, Boston has the scoring and the depth to break through the mighty Chicago defense. The Bulls are certainly a  ... 

Jeremy Lin Returns to MSG – NBA Picks, Predictions: Rockets Knicks

NBA Featured Game – Linsanity Cometh – Jeremy Lin returns to Madison Square Garden for Houston Rockets at New York Knicks Normally I feature the MOnday Night Football game on Mondays, but I don’t think Jets Titans deserves a feature. The big headline from the sports world this Monday is clearly the return of Jeremy Lin to Madison Square Garden. Will the savior of last year’s season and cause of

 New York’s Linsanity movement be able to knock off the Knicks again? After a convincing win in Houston, it certainly seems like a possibility.The New York Knicks are heating up  ...

NBA Picks and Predictions Facebook Contest: Free to join, winner takes 100 dollars – Round Five, Celtics Bulls.

You can join our facebook contest by simply liking our Facebook page and voting in the poll here:  https://www.facebook.com/ZcodeNBApicks

I posted the standings to our Facebook page, but this competition is still anyone’s game.  Here are the results after four rounds:

Four Wins: Mark Donatiello
Three Wins: Danilo

Two: XycXyc, Izabela Janchowska, Richard Bhamin, Marcin, Mike Zed, Mark Larsen, Ryan Hurdes, Victor Matias, Rogelio Avant

One: Mark Larsen, Jabz, Alberto, Chris, Alan, Carlos, Saroe Kuldeep, Jose Gregorio, Mendez Romero, Triple Play, Cyril Lighty, Michal J, Jonny Ma, Vladislov G, Karol Janchowska, Nejc G, Jaka J, Luis U, Praveen M, Sergej Sergio, Brandi Jones, Alan Singleton, Steve Stamos, Bobby Onnhagen

The Boston Celtics have been pretty consistent lately, while the Bulls have started winning again.  Both teams are strong defensively.  The Celtics are led by fantastic coaching and depth with veteran leadership.  The Bulls are led by defense, with some solid depth as well.  Still, the Bulls are struggling to score – but they are the home team and will likely be favored as a result.  This should be a great game and I’ll feature some in depth analysis on Tuesday.

Good luck to everyone in our competition!

NBA Picks and Predictions $100 Facebook Competition Standings Update

After four rounds of competition picks, I have a standings update. We’ve been on fire (I’m sorry I’m not sorry), picking winners in our featured games regularly. In fact, I’m the only one unbeaten in our featured contest picks so far. Many of you are not far behind. Here is a look at what we’ve got as we near the halfway point in our competition. Two JPM teammates (the Danilo Factor Vs the M in the filter system) are neck and neck. Remember, winner takes home 100 dollars and anyone can still pull this one out…

It looks like we picked a great game for a moneyline toss up. Even though both teams were off last night, Vegas wants some extra time to think about this one. That’s great, because it let’s us post without giving you guys the guarantee of Z-Code support when you participate in our super awesome competition.

NBA Picks and Predictions – Featured Game: Thunder at Hornets

NBA Picks and Predictions – Featured Game 12/1: Oklahoma City Thunder at New Orleans Hornets

Oh goodness. We are on absolute fire. NBA picks in the JPM system combined with the teaser of the day plays are hitting at 75% for a 3,300 dollar profit in standard 100 dollar bets. It’s the best start to a season I can ever remember. As a hockey guy, maybe it’s for the best that the NHL lockout has continued and allowed us to expand our NBA research a bit!

Saturday’s pick is a big spread. The Oklahoma City Thunder are on the road  ... 

Aragorn System for NBA Activated! +$6,522 profit

Featured system: Aragorn System for NBA Activated! +$6,522 profit

Have you heard of the new Trey’s system called Aragorn?

This is a fully backtested system, like Praveen and big investors like. Alberto and I believe in long term Stamos-like mindset and design it with this idea in mind. It will use the Baromir mindset of slow and low risk bankroll builder.  ... 

Free NBA Picks and Predictions: Raptors at Rockets

NBA FEATURED GAME – November 27th 2012 – Toronto Raptors at Houston Rockets

Jeremy Lin got his revenge for the New York Knicks not matching the Houston Rockets’ offer sheet. Though Lin is off to a horrible start, a blowout win against the New York Knicks just felt right. If Lin can parlay this into some momentum, he can make us a lot of money.

I love the Houston Rockets backcourt. James Harden and Jeremy Lin look good early. What’s more, they’ve got a center to balance the team out. THey’re a little thin, they’re a little streaky, but this  ... 

NBA Featured Basketball Betting System – JPM Filter

NBA Featured Betting System – JPM Filter

A little while ago I posted our featured game a little bit late and apologetically posted a full day of picks from the JPM system. We finished in profit on the day, though the system was still unproven and very young. Since I don’t love any of the games tomorrow, I’m going to feature our system instead of featuring a game. I don’t like leading people into risky wagers that I have low confidence in, such as yesterday’s 76ers Cavs game (sixers on the road and tired). I like lots of road favorites again tomorrow, and with limited confidence at best. After a highly successful day of football (up 14 units, only loss was Cowboys spread bet), let’s stay conservative and limit our wagers on Friday.

I developed the JPM Filter System as a way to combine the analysis of multiple Z-Code NBA experts to help ease the transition into the NBA season.  ...
