NEW York Knicks

Notice the emphasis on the NEW in New York. That's right, the Knicks are back baby and playing better then ever right now. Who knows how long until they decide to break our hearts again and go back to their old ways, but we might as well enjoy the moment while we can. The Knicks are currently tied for the 8th spot with Milwaukee, but trail by a few percentage points. They've won 5 out of their past 6 games over three potential playoff teams in Phoenix, Houston, and Atlanta. The schedule gets rough in the next 4 games though, at Indiana, followed by a three game home stand of Cleveland, LA, and Boston, basically the three best teams in the NBA. Hopefully the Knicks can ride this high streak right now and keep playing the type of basketball to make the sport relevant again in New York.

Another part of this blog as I mentioned will be gambling, so at the end of every post I'll give my "Lock" of the day in betting, or in my case the "Bust" of the day. Tomorrow I'm feeling Illinois going into Minnesota and taking down the 24th ranked team nationally. Illinois is only giving 1 to a team that has a very similar win resume. The two factors that made my choice though were that Illinois is only giving up 56.6 points a game, and they are averaging 4 players in double figure points, compared to Minnesota which only averages 2. We'll see how well I think I know betting compared to my actual knowledge of betting.

Intro

What's up to everyone following this brand new blog, BGMVP.blogspot.com, courtesy of BG. This site was created for two reasons: To accept the challenge of fellow blogger, AllDayMellea, and to inform some of the readers on topics regarding sports, gambling, fantasy, and who knows, maybe something that actually regards what's going on around the world (don't count on it though). It's also worth mentioning that you should go check out alldaymellea.blogspot.com and hockeylawyer.blogspot.com, two other blogs that can almost tie into what this blog is all about. For those who are wondering why the name BGMVP? Simple answer, I plan to dominate the SLWBL this season and every season after (refer to alldaymellea.blogspot.com to fully understand the SLWBL). But this site won't be dedicated towards Wiffle Ball. I'm here to share my knowledge on things you might or not be interested in, and to show AllDayMellea that he isn't the only clown who can run a blog. I'll most likely be posting every night so make sure to check the site daily. BG for MVP 09!
