February 1. A new month of NBA picks against the spread begins here at Friendly Bounce. Leading the way in January was Zach, who went 116-90-8. Next was Jack at 116-103-8, then came Wes at 45-44-7, followed by Eric at 15-6-1. Then there was Matt at 33-40-1, and Chris at 93-105-8. (Not everyone picks everyday and sometimes there isn’t a line available by the time we make the picks so that’s why the records aren’t even.) Let’s see if we can start this new month off right.
