Daily Sports Picks

Today is August 18th - - Part 1 of 2

NBA **Fair Warning** yesterday I went (4-0)

- Bucks - It's both these teams' 74th game of the season and Bucks can pick up their 31st home win of the season, "Seventy Four" = 127 the 31st prime number. With a win, the Bucks would become 4-1 h2h against Magic all-time postseason, as Magic picks up their 41st loss of the season, "Forty-One" = 46, and today has 46 & 66 DN on Gregorian, "Sixty Six" = 41. With a loss, the Magic would have a season record of 33-41 and, "Thirty-Three" = 66. The number 41 is the 13th prime and Magic coach would get his 13th all-time postseason loss.    **Alternative Side** - It's both these teams' 74th game of the season and with a loss Bucks would get their 55th all-time h2h loss against Magic, "Seventy Four" = 55. Bucks would become 30-6 for a home record with a loss and Magic coach would sit on 306 all-time losses with a win. 

- Pacers - Today is a day with 30 & 46 DN on Gregorian and with a win, Pacers would get their 46th for the season and Heat would et 30th loss of the season. 113 is the 30th prime number and Pacers would get 113th postseason win as a team. It's the 144th all-time h2h match between these two and Heat are sitting on 44 wins for the season and can become 44-30 of a season record with a loss, "Forty Four" = 144.  It's the 26th postseason h2h match between these two and Pacers can get their 26th home win of the season as Heat get their 101st postseason loss as a team, the 26th prime number.   **Alternative Side** -  An opening match between the 4 vs 5 seed with a loss Pacers would stay on 45 wins for the season as Heat become 4-5 for the Bubble as well as pick up their 45th win for the season. It's Pacers 37th home game the 12th prime and Pacers can get 12th home loss as they sit on 78 all-time h2h wins against Heat, the 12th triangular number. Pacers could would get 33rd postseason loss on 66 DN for Gregorian, "Thirty-Three" = 66. 

- Rockets - There really isn't much here for either side in my opinion, both season records are almost identical. Its both these teams 73rd game of the season and Thunder can sit on 21 away wins for the season, 73 the 21st prime number today with 21 DN on Gregorian. "Eighteen" = 73 & 46, today with 46 DN on Gregorian and Rockets can get their 18th all-time h2h postseason win against Thunder.   **Alternative Side** - Like is said there really isn't much here and my Rockets side seems a little stretched, for Thunder, it's the 4 vs 5 seed and Thunder can open up getting 54th postseason win for their team as they become 5-4 for the NBA bubble, getting their 45th win of the season. 

- Lakers - I expect Lakers to win no less than 10 postseason games, "ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex" = 383 & 373 in two of the four base ciphers and Lakers come into this first game sitting on 373 postseason wins as a team and 10 more wins put them at 383 postseason wins, all taking place inside the Sports Complex, which would put them in the middle of the Western Conference finals. The number 383 is the 76th prime number and this is the Trail Blazers 76th game of the season. Lakers can pick up their 33rd h2h postseason win against Trailblazers today on 66 DN for Gregorian "Thirty-Three" = 66. The number 6x6 = 36 and it's the Lakers 36th home game and Trail Blazers come into this game sitting on 36 wins for the season, Lakers can get their 53rd win of the season and "Thirty-Six" = 53.   **Alternative Side** -  "ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex" = 383 & 373 and Lakers can sit on 373 postseason wins in Blazers 76th game of the season, 383 the 76th prime number.
