NBA Picks for 1-18-12

Today's Pics:
Ricky Rubio- Is at home tonight vs. the Detroit Pistons who are the second worst defensive team in the NBA, 29/30. Especially coming off a bad shooting night with 7 MFGs he seems to score more fantasy points every night and spends a lot of time on the court putting up all around stats: points, rebounds, assists, and steals. Expect Rubio to score 25-30 fantasy points.

Carmelo Anthony- Is at home tonight vs. the Phoenix Suns where he averages 32 points/game. With neither side playing much defense expect a high scoring affair. Expect Anthony to score 35-40 fantasy points.

Amar'e Stoudemire- Is at home tonight vs. the Phoenix Suns where he averages 17 points/game, with some incentive to beat one of his old teams. Not much defense in this matchup expect a lot of points to be scored. Expect Stoudemire to score 28-33 fantasy points.

Ray Allen- Is at home tonight vs. the Toronto Raptors who are the 5th worst defense in the NBA, 25/30. With both Allen, 6 MFG/MFTs, and the Celtics coming off a bad game vs. OKC yesterday, look for Allen to bounce back strong. Expect Allen to score 20-25 fantasy points.

Best Cheapt Player:
1. Jodie Meeks-  Is at home vs. the Denver Nuggets, a high scoring team that relies on its offense to out score the other team in order to win. Expect Meeks to score 12-18 fantasy points.

2. Marco Belinelli- Is at home vs the Memphis Grizzlies. He has been hot lately coming off a bad game only scoring 2 points with 6 MFG. Expect Belinelli to score 13-19 fantasy points.

3. Wayne Ellington- Is at home vs. the Detroit Pistons and averages 11.5 points/game when playing over 20 minutes which he should vs. the second worst defense in the NBA ranked 29/30 and averaged 12 fantasy points/game over the last 3 games. Expect Ellington to score 12-18 fantasy points.

4. Sheldon Williams- Is at home vs. the Golden State Warriors and averages 7 points/game when playing over 20 minutes which he should vs. the 26th worst defense in the NBA. Expect Williams to score 10-15 fantasy points.
