Free NBA Picks 11/14/08

Friday we have all kinds of free plays in the NBA.  Be sure to check out each cappers’ page to see the other games they are on today.

First up we have our #1 overall ranked capper, John Martin:

Martin’s Friday Free Play:

1 Unit on Miami Heat -6.5

The 1-5 Washington Wizards travel to Miami tonight to battle with Dwayne Wade and the Miami Heat. The Heat have been solid at home this season, which leads me to believe they will have no troubles overcoming this spread at home Friday. Miami is 3-1 in home games thus far, scoring 101.0 points/game and allowing just 89.5 points/game. That shows that are outscoring their opponents at home by 11.5 points/game. The Wizards have just one win on the season, and it can largely be contributed to a pair of key injuries they haven’t been able to overcome. Gilbert Arenas and Brendan Haywood have each missed every game this season. Dwayne Wade has scored at least 30 points in each of his last four games overall. The Wizards do not have an answer for Wade. The Heat are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400. But the main thing here is that Miami is winning their home games by an average of 11.5 points/game, while Washington is winless on the road and losing their road games by an average of 13.7 points/contest. This one is a no-brainer folks. Cash in with Miami as the favorite.

Next up we have the Black Widow with his free play on the Thunder/Knicks tonight:

Black Widow Free Pick:

1* on New York Knicks -8

The New York Knicks broke a franchise-record with 19 made 3-point shots last game in a 132-103 beating of the Memphis Grizzlies. Although we don’t expect those kind of numbers again tonight, the Knicks will have no problem beating up on the Oklahoma City Thunder by double-digits Friday. The Thunder are scoring just 88.0 points per game this season. Now they are playing without their best player in Kevin Durant, who suffered an ankle injury a couple games back. The Thunder lost 92-109 to the Orlando Magic at home last game without Durant on the floor. But it’s not like the Thunder are much better with Durant anyways. Oklahoma City is off to a abysmal 1-7 start to the season and they are losing by an average of 9 points per game. The Knicks have won 4 of their last 5 games overall, shooting better than 48% from the field. Oklahoma City is shooting just 39% from the field during that same span. The Thunder are 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 Friday games. The Knicks are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 Friday games. Take New York and lay the points.

Jimmy Boyd has a monster day going on the premium side, here’s what he’s got for tonight’s free NBA play:

1 Unit FREE PLAY on New Orleans Hornets -7
I like the Hornets to cool the Blazers off tonight. New Orleans is 3-0 SU and ATS the last three times the Blazers have visited. New Orleans is 15-5 ATS in home games when playing against a good team (Win Pct. 60% to 70%) over the last 2 seasons, 18-5 ATS in a home game where the total is between 190 and 194.5 points over the last 3 seasons, and 27-12 ATS after a game where they failed to cover the spread over the last 2 seasons. New Orleans dug themselves a big hole in their last game against LA before exploding to make that game somewhat interesting. The Hornets will learn from that performance and jump all over Portland right out of the gate tonight.
