01-12-19 | Grizzlies +5 v. Heat | Top | 108-112 | Win | 100 | 6 h 0 m | Show |
Memphis at Miami 5:00 ET Grizzlies (+) over Heat- At the season's halfway point the Heat are even 20-20 while Memphis who won only 22 games last season are 19-22 after breaking a six-game losing streak with a win over San Antonio last time out. Miami has been impressive of late defeating Boston. Milwaukee and Houston and have a win over the Grizzlies at Memphis in mid-December. The Heat are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and the Griz are just 1-7 ATS in their last eight road games. Still, look for the Grizzlies to get the cash. Take MEMPHIS! |

01-11-19 | Hornets +6 v. Blazers | 96-127 | Loss | -104 | 11 h 44 m | Show | |
Charlotte at Portland 10:00 ET Hornets (+) over Trailblazers- Portland has dominated the Hornets at home wining the last 10 as hots going 9-1 ATS. The Blazers come into this fray winners of their last three while the Hornets have lost three of their last four. Portland will find Charlotte a little tougher then they have had it at last two playing the Knicks and Bulls. The Hornets although just 5-13 SU on the road are just 8-10 ATS they will be ready tonight. Take CHARLOTTE! |

01-11-19 | Pacers v. Knicks +8.5 | 121-106 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
Indiana at New York 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Pacers- New York who has lost 15 of their last 17 have just 10 wins on the season just two more than Cleveland and the same number of wins as Phoenix. First-year Knicks head coach David Fizdale has to the 'fizz' to the New York offense and stated the obvious 'We have a lot of work to do.' No kidding! The Knicks have now lost their last six and return home where they have lost their last six games home games going just 4-12 SU as hosts. Indiana has won 12 of the last 13 meetings but are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings in New York. Take the KNICKS! |
|||||||
01-11-19 | Bucks v. Wizards +6 | Top | 106-113 | Win | 100 | 8 h 53 m | Show |
Milwaukee at Washington 7:05 ET Wizards (+) over Bucks- I just love these Milwaukee Bucks as they not only win for 'us' in clutch situations but they generally don't lose at all entering the night with the least amount of NBA losses this season win a winning percentage of 72.5 the highest in the league. Washington on the other hand is such a hoax and mixed of fractured egos that don't know how to play to win. They win quit at the earliest chance and for the most part don't play with any heart...unless they are an underdog at home. On the road they are a miserable 5-18 while when playing at home they are 12-7 SU at home. Now, they are getting points against a team off of a huge road win (yes, they are hot and playing great team basketball) while the Wizards have one of those addition by subtract deals...with John Wall sidelined more people get to see the ball and that gives them a chance. Take WASHINGTON! |

01-10-19 | Pistons +5.5 v. Kings | 102-112 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 47 m | Show | |
Detroit at Sacramento 10:00 ET Pistons (+) over Kings- I just 'love' this Sacramento club with their youth and aggressiveness while Detroit is another matter altogether. The Pistons won 13 of their first 20 games but have fallen like a stone going 4-15 since that quick start including losses in six of their last seven. NBA Coach of the Year Dwane Casey read the riot act to his club after their loss Monday at home to San Antonio and it did no good as they went out and were taken down by the 'LeBron-less' Lakers.Although the Pistons are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games overall they are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 trips to Sacramento. Take DETROIT! |
|||||||
01-10-19 | Clippers +6 v. Nuggets | 100-121 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 39 m | Show | |
L.A. Clippers at Denver 9:00 ET Clippers (+) over Nuggets- At this point it is a bit of a surprise that Denver has the best record in the West having won six of their last seven. Los Angeles has been a surprise themselves as they are actually better this season without Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan. The Clippers have won their last three and are 7-3 in their last 10 and are 4-0 ATS in their last four road games. The teams split two games in LA already with the Clippers winning the last meeting 132-111 just before Christmas. Denver is 16-3 SU and 13-6 at home while LA has won four straight on the road. This time take the points...take the CLIPPERS! |
|||||||
01-10-19 | Celtics v. Heat +3 | Top | 99-115 | Win | 100 | 7 h 33 m | Show |
Boston at Miami 7:00 ET Heat (+) over Celtics- Boston was expected to be the front runner in the East but have not played at that level as of yet. Now, they are on a 4-game winning streak and are 10-games over the breakwater mark for the first time this season. Miami has dropped their last two after having won eight of ten and are 4-1 ATS against the Celtics in the last five meetings. The Celtics had scored 135 points and shot 57% in last night's win over Indiana and had 32 assists all season highs. After a game like that I expect there to be some drop-off in production for Boston. The Heat won 2-of-3 meetings last year and get the money again. Take MIAMI! |
|||||||
01-09-19 | Spurs v. Grizzlies +3 | 86-96 | Win | 100 | 6 h 25 m | Show | |
San Antonio at Memphis 8:00 ET Grizzlies (+) over Spurs- These two are like 'ships passing in the night' headed in opposite directions as San Antonio has won five straight and 13 of their last 16 while Memphis has lost six straight and 13 of their last 16. Which obviously means the Spurs have pick up 10 full games on the Grizzlies the last four weeks. These two have split two meetings this season each winning at home while the Spurs are 5-2-1 ATS in the last eight meetings. I expect a concerted effort out of the Grizzlies tonight. Take MEMPHIS! |
|||||||
01-09-19 | 76ers v. Wizards +4 | 106-123 | Win | 100 | 6 h 32 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over 76ers- Boy, do I ever hate playing against Philadelphia as we all know just how power packed their line-up is. These two played last night in Philly where the 76ers won by 25-points 123-98. Washington has lost six of the last nine meetings after having won 10 of the previous 11 but are 3-8 ATS in the last 11 meetings. But, the Wizards are 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings in Washington and have a small measure of revenge on the second of back-to-backs. Take the WIZARDS! |
|||||||
01-08-19 | Hornets +6.5 v. Clippers | 109-128 | Loss | -104 | 9 h 4 m | Show | |
Charlotte at L.A. Clippers 10:30 ET Hornets (+) over Clippers- The Los Angeles Clippers started the season in dominate fashion and then came back to the pack. But, it looks like they have regained their footing having won their last two and six of their last nine. Charlotte in the meantime is fighting to get to the breakwater mark currently one-game under as they started their longest road trip sleepwalking for six quarters losing at Denver before recovering in the second half at Phoenix. The Clippers have all the trends for support as they have won seven of the last eight in the series and are 6-2 ATS in the last eight in LA. The Hornets have been playing tough behind Kemba Walker and his penetration will difficult to handle for LA and it will be the 'points' difference. Take CHARLOTTE! |
|||||||
01-06-19 | Hornets v. Suns +2 | 119-113 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 41 m | Show | |
Charlotte at Phoenix 8:00 ET Suns (+) over Hornets- The Suns have lost their last five and are currently are one-game better than Cleveland with only nine wins in 40 games. Charlotte has dropped their last two and have been atrocious on the road going 4-12 straight-up and are 0-4 ATS in their last four, while Phoenix has lost their first five of a seven game home stand and finish Tuesday against Sacramento. Charlotte has always had trouble in the desert where they are 1-5 ATS at Phoenix and 3-9 ATS in the last 12 meetings. Take the SUNS! |
|||||||
01-06-19 | Pacers +1 v. Raptors | Top | 105-121 | Loss | -108 | 7 h 14 m | Show |
Indiana at Toronto 7:30 ET Pacers (+) over Raptors- This game has a 'funny' smell to it as the Raptors the team with the most wins in the league and off of a win at Milwaukee are barely a 1-point favorite at home. Indiana has been one of the hotter team's in the NBA having won six straight and haven't lost since December 19. Toronto is 15-4 SU at as hosts and yet they get co cred here as they have won the last four meetings an 10 in-a-row at home over the Pacers. Add that Indiana is 12-26 ATS in their last 38 visits to Toronto make this even more suspicious. Take INDIANA! |
|||||||
01-06-19 | Nets v. Bulls +2.5 | 117-100 | Loss | -105 | 3 h 19 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at Chicago 3:30 ET Bulls (+) over Nets- Brooklyn has surprised a NBA of NBA experts as the creep up on the breakeven mark having won both games played in the New Year to date and have won 11 of their last 14 while the Bulls continue to struggle having lost their last three. The Nets have won four straight meetings but Chicago is 4-0 ATS on Sundays and 5-0 ATS when playing with one days rest. Although the Bulls are just 5-15 straight-up at home they are 10-10 ATS and are poised to win here. Take CHICAGO! |
|||||||
01-05-19 | Rockets v. Blazers +1 | 101-110 | Win | 100 | 11 h 50 m | Show | |
Houston at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Rockets- We can all see how hot and ready the Rockets are with James Harden in the groove. Houston has won six straight and 11 of 12 and have won eight of the last 10 meetings. Portland is 14-7 straight-up at home while the Rockets are just 8-1 ATS on the road. I believe there has to be a bit of a lull for Houston after their spectacular overtime 135-134 win at Golden State on Thursday and I expect the Trailblazers to get a win against the Rockets in their third try this season. Take PORTLAND! |
|||||||
01-05-19 | Mavs +7 v. 76ers | 100-106 | Win | 100 | 9 h 43 m | Show | |
Dallas at Philadelphia 7:30 ET Mavericks (+) over 76ers- Okay so what's to deal with Jimmy Butler? Does he not understand that the game of basketball is comprised of five players on the floor at one time and he's out there along he will have no one to inbound the ball to 'him.' Butler is a little shook-up because night after night he can see that teammate Joel Embidd is a better player with a bigger impact on the game. Butler blew off practice Friday as the 76ers are having internal issues and will struggle on the floor tonight. Take PHILADELPHIA. |
|||||||
01-05-19 | Jazz v. Pistons +2.5 | Top | 110-105 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 18 m | Show |
Utah at Detroit 7:00 ET Pistons (+) over Jazz- This matchup of sub .500 clubs who have had disappointing season's to date. Detroit is off of a win over Memphis as they had lost 12 of 15 while the Jazz took care of business last night in Cleveland 117-91. That doesn't bode well for Utah as they are 0-5 ATS following a win of more than 10 points and the Pistons are 4-0 ATS in their last four games playing on two days rest. Although Utah has dominated this series winning the last four and are 11-2 ATS in their last 13 meetings in Detroit but, that was a different era. Take the PISTONS! |
|||||||
01-04-19 | Clippers v. Suns +4.5 | Top | 121-111 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 21 m | Show |
L.A. Clippers at Phoenix 9:00 ET Suns (+) over Clippers- After a start that saw L.A. Leading the NBA West with their 15-6 start but have gone 6-10 since. The lack of defense has been the Clippers Achilles heel as is evidenced by the 76 points that they allowed 76 first half points to Philadelphia last time out. The Clippers have defeated Phoenix 10 straight times including twice this season once at Phoenix already 123-119 in overtime a game in which Suns leading scorer Devin Booker who was injured. Booker is averaging 29.3 points in his last 10 games and the Suns are 4-6 but have lost their last four. L.A. Is also 4-6 in their last 10 contests and are 9-10 on the road while the Suns are 9-11 ATS as hosts. Take PHOENIX! |
|||||||
01-04-19 | Mavs +5 v. Celtics | 93-114 | Loss | -101 | 8 h 12 m | Show | |
Dallas at Boston 8:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Celtics- Even at 18-19 the Mavericks may be the biggest surprise in the NBA as they are 23-14 ATS overall this season (NBA's best). Boston who has been a little disappointing so far got a great shot in the arm with the return to form of Gorgon Hayward last time out going 14-of-18 from the field against Minnesota. The return of veteran Dirk Notwitki who missed the first two months has Dallas at 3-2 wince his return to action including just their third outright win on the road with one of their other wins coming at Boston 113-104 in late November. With the influx of young talent the Mavs are so much more competitive. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
01-04-19 | Magic +4.5 v. Wolves | 103-120 | Loss | -102 | 8 h 4 m | Show | |
Orlando at Minnesota 8:00 ET Magic (+) over Timberwolves- Minnesota has lost three of their last five but no one can blame Karl-Anthony Towns who averaged 28.2 points, 17.2 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 3.0 blocks. Orlando is off what might be their worst home loss 112-84 to Chicago on Wednesday and after losing to the Bulls (and with that score) I expect the Magic to pull off some tricks and get the money here. Orlando is 16-5 ATS against the T'wolves in the last 21 and 10-1 ATS at Minnesota. Take ORLANDO! |
|||||||
01-03-19 | Raptors +3 v. Spurs | Top | 107-125 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 16 m | Show |
Toronto at San Antonio 8:00 ET Raptors (+) over Raptors- A reunion of sorts tonight in San Antonio where Kawhi Leonard returns to play against his former teammates after seven years as a Spur and DeMar DeRozan faces his former team and he should be ready to oppose the team that 'dumped' him in the trade for Leonard. San Antonio is playing their best ball of the season and have won 10 of their last 13 after adjusting to seven 'new' teammates. The Spurs are off an emotional come-from-behind win over Boston and have dominated Toronto at home winning nine straight and yet they are less than a bucket favorite. Take the RAPTORS! |
|||||||
01-02-19 | 76ers v. Suns +5 | 132-127 | Push | 0 | 9 h 14 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Phoenix 9:00 ET Suns (+) over 76ers- Oddly enough the Suns who have lost three straight and five of their last six straight-up are 5-1 ATS in that span. This shows at least one thing and that is that Phoenix has been competitive and give a solid effort almost every night. Philadelphia is playing their fifth and final game on this current road trip and are 2-2 after a 119-113 win over the Clippers last night. The Suns have a better home ATS record 9-10 ATS than the 76ers on the road 7-12 ATS. Phoenix is 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings overall and they are 4-1 ATS after a SU loss. Take PHOENIX! |
|||||||
01-02-19 | Heat v. Cavs +5.5 | 117-92 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 8 m | Show | |
Miami at Cleveland 7:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Heat- This could be billed as the 'Aftermath Bowl' (keeping with the season) as the last two teams that LeBron deserted will go at it in Cleveland. Miami did fare better and has fared well compared to the Cavaliers after James left the clubs. The Heat are 17-18 and have been dealing with numerous injuries the entire season and it is a testament to Eric Spoelstra's ability to hold these guys together. These two met in South Beach last Friday and Miami destroyed the Cavs 118-94 and now it is Cleveland's turn to apply the pressure. The Heat lost their two games in Cleveland last year and are 2-5 ATS in their last seven visits to the capital of Rock n' Roll. Look for the Cavs to bounce back and break a six game losing streak. Take CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
01-02-19 | Mavs +1.5 v. Hornets | 122-84 | Win | 100 | 7 h 58 m | Show | |
Dallas at Charlotte 7:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Hornets- After doing some research on this contest I noticed that tonight's line (-2.5) in the lowest number Charlotte have been favored at home against the Mavericks. This is the first meeting of the season between these two but Dallas is not only 4-0 ATS after a straight-up loss they are 4-0 ATS as well in the last four games in Charlotte. The road team has won five of the last six meetings overall and with the Mavs at just 2-16 SU on the road the odds-makers are telling 'us' Dallas has a decent change to win here. In their 122-102 loss last time out to OKC they committed a season high 29 turnovers. Look for them to protect the ball better tonight. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
01-01-19 | Jazz +3.5 v. Raptors | Top | 116-122 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 52 m | Show |
Utah at Toronto 7:35 ET Jazz (+) over Raptors- Something is amiss here. Toronto who started the season 20-4 and still have the best record in the East but are just 7-7 SU in their a last 14 overall. Utah has struggled to date and is just 18-19 SU on the year and are just 1-10 ATS in the last 11 meetings including 1-4 ATS in their last five at Toronto. Part of the current issue for the Raptors is the absence of point guard Kyle Lowry who will miss this contest his eight in his last nine. Toronto is 0-4 ATS in their last four overall and 1-5 ATS in their last six as well as 7-11 ATS at home. Take UTAH! |
|||||||
12-29-18 | Spurs +3.5 v. Clippers | Top | 122-111 | Win | 100 | 11 h 3 m | Show |
San Antonio at L.A. Clippers 10:30 ET Spurs (+) over Clippers- The L.A. Clippers should have the memory of the 125-87 blowout loss suffered at the hands of the Spurs two weeks ago in San Antonio embedded in their minds. LA.s leading scorer Lou Willams was out that contest and his presence will be welcomed. The Spurs have won eight of eleven despite losing two of their last three and are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings. SA made a huge comeback last night after trailing by 22-points cutting the margin to one-point but the 'hoax' DeMarcus DeRozen made just 2-of-4 free throws in the final minute as they fell short at the buzzer. This time they complete the task. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
12-29-18 | Warriors v. Blazers +4.5 | 115-105 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 33 m | Show | |
Golden State at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Warriors- This is the second of back-to-backs between these two with the Trailblazers taking the first encounter 110-109 as Damian Lillard buried a 3-pointer at the buzzer. Golden State who aside from injuries is just sleep-walking through the regular season especially on the road where they are 8-8 SU and just 6-10 ATS and have lost three of their last five. Portland is 13-5 SU at home and are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and Golden State is 0-5 ATS in their last five games overall. Take PORTLAND! |
|||||||
12-29-18 | Rockets v. Pelicans +3 | 108-104 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 33 m | Show | |
Houston at New Orleans 7:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Rockets- A pair of the NBA's most prolific scorers will face-off in the Smoothie King Center when the league's leading scorer and reining MVP Houston's James Harden who is off a 45-point performance will counter Anthony Davis who scored 49 points last time out. The Rockets are just 7-10 SU and 6-11 ATS on the road while New Orleans is 12-5 SU at home. The Pelicans just ended a five-game losing streak with their non-cover win last night are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and they hold a 10-4 ATS advantage when hosting Houston. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

12-28-18 | Spurs +4 v. Nuggets | 99-102 | Win | 100 | 10 h 5 m | Show | |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Top-Rated' Megabucks Game San Antonio at Denver 9:00 ET Spurs (+) order Nuggets- The Spurs are playing with plenty of confidence as they have won 8-of-10 after a slow start and have scored 110 or more points in all eight wins. The first place Nuggets have dropped their last two and this is the second of back-to-back games as San Antonio won at home 111-103 using a 15-0 fourth quarter spurt to seal the victory. Although Denver is 7-0 ATS in their last seven home games they are just 7-20 ATS in the last 27 games at home and the Spurs are 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
12-28-18 | Mavs +4.5 v. Pelicans | 112-114 | Win | 100 | 9 h 11 m | Show | |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Top-Rated' Power Play Dallas at New Orleans 8:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Pelicans- Dallas just ended a six-game losing steak with a 122-119 home win over New Orleans Wednesday as this is the second of back-to-back contests. The Pelicans return home having lost their last five games and believe it or nor are 0-6 ATS on Fridays. The Pels are 11-5 straight-up at home including a 132-106 on December 5, but are just 8-8 ATS as hosts while the Mavericks are just 2-14 SU on the road but 7-9 ATS. New Orleans plays close losing 13 of their last 18 by a total just 19 points. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
12-28-18 | Bulls +5.5 v. Wizards | Top | 101-92 | Win | 100 | 8 h 17 m | Show |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Highest-Rated' Money Game Chicago at Washington 7:00 ET Bulls (+) over Wizards- The NBA doesn't mind these games between the leagues worst teams because one of these guys is forced no matter how bad they play to pick-up a win. Chicago is a young team that is looking to bet better on a daily basis whereas Washington is just a bunch of huge egos that just go through the motions half the time. The Wizards won 2-of-3 meetings last season but Chicago is 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings in Washington and 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings overall. The Bulls will have an added boost as Zach LaVine returns and Chicago has more heart and will desire and wins here. Take the BULLS! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Top-Rated' Money Game New Orleans at Dallas 8:30 ET Pelicans (+) over Mavericks- Dallas who has been so good to 'us' this season buts has lost six straight while their opponent tonight the Pelicans have lost their last four. New Orleans has been in almost every game during their losing streak losing by one, three, four and five points going 1-3 ATS. They are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games when playing on two days rest and are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings including a dominating 132-106 win in the Smoothie Center. Mavericks outstanding point guard Dennis Smith Jr. has missed nine of the last 10 days and when he's out Dallas has trouble filling the void. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

12-26-18 | Nuggets +4 v. Spurs | Top | 103-111 | Loss | -103 | 9 h 7 m | Show |
Denver at San Antonio 8:30 ET Nuggets (+) over Spurs- The Nuggets have emerged as one of the better teams in the NBA West with the Conferences best record at 21-10 and are coming off a132-111 beating at the hands of the L.A. Clippers. Now, although Denver has lost 11 straight times in San Antonio I expect them to rebound here (notice how I worked the rebound in) and play the over-rated Spurs tough. The Spurs had put together a decent spurt winning seven of eight before their loss at Houston Saturday night but, I am just not so I'm pressed with the Spurs team make-up. The coaching may be the same but the personnel is not...take DENVER! |
|||||||
12-26-18 | Wizards +5 v. Pistons | 95-106 | Loss | -104 | 7 h 29 m | Show | |
Washington at Detroit 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over Pistons- The Pistons were off to great start at 13-7 and it looked like new head coach Dwayne Casey was performing some of his Coach of the Year abilities. But, Detroit has dropped nine of their last 11 games including a home loss to Atlanta. Washington we all should know in falling apart daily as they are just 4-15 on the road both SU and ATS and are reshaping their roster on a weekly basis. Both these clubs have player personalities issues but the Wizards are 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
12-25-18 | Blazers +6.5 v. Jazz | 96-117 | Loss | -105 | 24 h 19 m | Show | |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Top-Rated' Power Play Portland at Utah 10:30 ET Trailblazers (+) over Jazz- Four days ago on Friday night the Jazz handed Portland their worst home loss is fifteen years as they knocked down 16-of-31 3-point attempts. That is the sole loss in the last five games for the Blazers who defeated the Mavericks 121-118 in overtime Sunday. If not for the revenge factor I might down grade this play as Portland ai 1-7 ATS in their last eight road games and they are just 1-4 ATS in their last five visits to Utah. Still, this is a spot fore incentive. Take PORTLAND! |
|||||||
12-25-18 | 76ers +4 v. Celtics | Top | 114-121 | Loss | -102 | 19 h 27 m | Show |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Highest-Rated' Megabucks Philadelphia at Boston 5:30 ET 76ers (+) over Celtics- Although tBoston beat me or shall I say 'us' up pretty good their last time out I just don't think the Celtics have 'it' this season. Granted, they now have Gordon Hayward full time but he hasn't been able mesh in the way the brass had hoped. Philadelphia has some meshing issues of their own with the addition of Jimmy Butler and sometimes they might need two basketballs on offense. This is a series in which the Celtics have had the upper hand going 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings and are 4-0 the last for meetings in Boston including opening night a 105-87 Celtics romp. The Sixers have struggled on the road going 6-9 SU and 5-10 ATS while Boston at home is a mirror image at 10-5 SU and 9-6 ATS. But, I believe that Joel Embiid wants to make Christmas Day his persona showcase...take PHILADELPHIA! |

12-25-18 | Thunder +1.5 v. Rockets | 109-113 | Loss | -106 | 17 h 3 m | Show | |
Oklahoma City at Houston 3:00 ET Thunder (+) over Rockets- Oh how 'we' loved the Rockets at -6 against the Spurs Saturday night and they posted a 108-101 victory for 'us.' Now, after posting their first win of the season without Chris Paul (1-5) in the lineup and having won six of their last seven the are less than a field goal favorite. Oklahoma City had won four in-a-row until Sunday a 114-112 home loss to Minnesota but are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings against Houston. This line is telling me that the Rockets are in trouble. Take OKLAHOMA CITY! |

New Orleans at Sacramento 6:00 ET Kings (+) over Pelicans- New Orleans has become the 'mystery' team of the NBA with the likes of one of the most dominant players in the league in Anthony Davis as they started the year like a ball on fire even defeating the Kings 149-129 at the Smoothy Center the first week of the season. But, things have taken a negative turn as the Pelicans have lost 11 of their last 16 including losses in their last three games. Although New Orleans is 6-0 ATS in their games following an ATS loss but are just 8-18-1 ATS in the last 27 meetings in Sacramento. The Kings might again be without Marvin Bagley III allowing Buddy Hield to picked up the slack. Take SACRAMENTO! |

12-23-18 | Hornets +7 v. Celtics | 103-119 | Loss | -107 | 7 h 56 m | Show | |
Charlotte at Boston 6:00 ET Hornets (+) over Celtics- What a joke, Kyrie Irving is complaining that there is 'some selfish play out there and they need to share the ball more...' Boston has lost three in-a-row and at 18-13 seems to have misplaced their 'mojo.' Charlotte is just 4-8 SU on the road but as respectable 7-5 ATS but have had problems against the Celtics as they are 1-6-1 ATS in the last eight meetings including 0-3-1 ATS in the last four meetings in Boston. But, the Celtics who started Gordon Hayward for the first time in a month last time out as he went 3-13 from the floor are just 1-7 ATS in their last eight games against teams with winning records. Hornets qualify barley at 16-15! Take CHARLOTTE! |

Chicago at Cleveland 6:00 ET Bulls (+) over Cavaliers- These two clubs have are virtual mirror imagine of each other as they both share the NBA's worst record at 8-25 with the exact same home (5-12) and road records (3-12). It doesn't stop there as both clubs have lost seven of their last 10 and have little hope of much improvement this season. Chicago for some odd reason (considering LeBron played with the Cavaliers) is 26-9 ATS in the last 35 meetings including 17-4 ATS in Cleveland. The beat-goes-on...take CHICAGO! |

12-22-18 | Spurs v. Rockets -5 | 101-108 | Win | 100 | 9 h 48 m | Show | |
San Antonio at Houston 8:00 ET Rockets (-) over Spurs- Houston is once again without Chris Paul as he will be sidelined for a few weeks with a hamstring pull and that doesn't bode well for the Rockets as they are 0-5 SU and ATS without Paul in the lineup. San Antonio has finally put it together having won their last three and seven of their last eight going 7-1 ATS and yet the are an underdog to a weakened Rockets squad. The Spurs have won their last five games by 26, 39, 27, 38 and 25 points and yet they are a substantial dog here. This doesn't make sense. Take HOUSTON! |

12-22-18 | Bucks v. Heat +3 | Top | 87-94 | Win | 100 | 9 h 43 m | Show |
Milwaukee at Miami 8:00 ET Heat (+) over Bucks- Two of the 'hotter' clubs matchup in Miami where the Heat host the Bucks who have won four straight including a convincing 120-107 win at Boston last night. Miami, meanwhile has lost their best player in Goran Dragic who will be out for two months or more and have managed a season high three-game win streak. After falling behind 10-1 to the Celtics last night the Bucks stormed back for their win and will be floating on 'cloud nine' so I don't expect full focus here. But, key here is that Milwaukee is 0-5 ATS in the last five meetings and 0-4 ATS in their last four in Miami. Defense has been the key for the Heat as they have held the Bucks to 88.3 points per game. Take MIAMI! |

12-21-18 | Jazz +2 v. Blazers | 120-90 | Win | 100 | 11 h 39 m | Show | |
Utah at Portland 10:00 ET Jazz (+) over Trailblazers- Portland has ripped off three straight wins and 'covers' and 5-of-7 and are an impressive 12-4 SU at home (11-5 ATS). Utah hopes that their win over Golden State Wednesday will catapult their play as they are 4-0-1 when playing on one-days rest but are 1-5 ATS in their last six meetings in Portland. This contest features a pair of exciting guards in Damon Lillard and Donovan Mitchell that are both worth paying to see especially if they got head-to-head. Lillard averaged 33 points in four games against the Jazz last season and leads the NBA in second half scoring this year. But, Utah's defense will be the difference. Take UTAH! |

12-21-18 | Bucks +1.5 v. Celtics | Top | 120-107 | Win | 100 | 9 h 44 m | Show |
Milwaukee at Boston 8:00 ET Bucks (+) over Celtics- How things have changed in the odds-makers eyes since the 2018 NBA playoffs when Boston was pounding the rest of the league. The Celtics and Milwaukee met in last year's post season and Boston was favored by 5-points and now are favored by less than a 3-point bucket. This gets more of my attention as we see the Bucks are 0-6 ATS in their last six trips to Boston and 2-9 ATS in the last 11 meetings. With these obvious trends the 'price' should be getting larger not smaller. Take MILWAUKEE! |

Atlanta at New York 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Knicks- These two bottom feeders have are a combined 16-47 record straight-up and two of those wins came against each other. New York is 2-0 in the pair of meetings this season winning 126-107 at Madison Square Garden in the opener as a 4-point favorite. This time around the Knicks are a smaller favorite although as they have a better overall record but have lost three straight and eight of their last nine. Atlanta who is 1-7-1 ATS in their last nine road games are 3-8 ATS in the last 11 meetings. The numbers just don't add up. Take ATLANTA! |

Dallas at L.A.

The Clippers started 15-6 and were leading the West while the Mavericks had won 12 of 15 before their recent slide. Although the Clippers have won the last three meetings the Mavs are 5-1-1 ATS in the last seven meetings. After 10 season's in Los Angeles center DeAndre Jordan returns to the Staples Center with the Mavericks and The Clippers will be without Lou Williams again. Take DALLAS! |

12-19-18 | Warriors v. Jazz +3 | 103-108 | Win | 100 | 11 h 35 m | Show | |
Golden State at Utah 9:00 ET Jazz (+) over Warriors- It appears the Warriors have righted the ship with the return of Stephen Curry and have won their last two and six of their last seven and are tied with Denver for the most wins in the west. The Jazz are three-games under the break-even mark but with the return of leading scorer Donavan Mitchell are looking to make up some ground at home as they have played only 11 of 30 games at home. Utah is 4-0 ATS I the last four meetings and they are in a good spot here. Take the JAZZ! |

12-19-18 | Nets v. Bulls +2 | Top | 96-93 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 40 m | Show |
Brooklyn at Chicago 8:00 ET Bulls (+) over Nets- Like I said before Brooklyn's win last night over the Lakers, 'Break-up the Nets!' They have won six straight games and are favored on the road for what seems like the first time since forever, This win streak comes on the heels of an eight game win streak as they are off of their 115-110 over the Lakers to go 3-0 on their home stand. Jim Boylen Chicago's 'new' coach is 2-5 since taking over but is pleased with the Bulls competitive nature although they have lost 11 of 13. With the way Brooklyn is playing along with Chicago's talent level the 'line' here is very shallow. Consider the Nets are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings makes this look too inviting. Take CHICAGO! |

San Antonio at Orlando 7:00 ET Magic (+) over Spurs- At 16-15 the Spurs have won five of their last six but have been inconsistent the entire season and are off of a huge 123-96 win over Philadelphia after losing to Chicago at home on Saturday. Orlando returns home after a pair of wins in Mexico City against the Bulls and Jazz and is just 6-8 straight-up at home while San Antonio is just 4-10 SU on the road. The Magic are 4-0 ATS in their last four home games against teams with a road winning percentage of 40 or less and they are 5-2 ATS against the Spurs in the last seven meetings. Take ORLANDO! |

12-18-18 | Mavs +5 v. Nuggets | Top | 118-126 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 56 m | Show |
Dallas at Denver 9:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Nuggets- Don't look now but it is the Nuggets that own the best record in the west as they have won 10 of their last 12 including their last three as they host the Mavericks who have dropped their last two. Those two losses followed as span of 12 wins in 15 games. Dallas is capable and although they have lost four straight at Denver they are a rejuvenated team this season. The Paradox is that the Nuggets are 6-0 ATS in their last six home games but Dallas is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. It's a spot for the Mavericks to buck the Nuggets. Take DALLAS! |

Washington at Atlanta 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Wizards- A pair of bottom feeders pair up at the State Farm Arena Atlanta but Washington was our Sunday Power Play winner 128-100 over the LA Lakers and that came on the heels of a 4-game losing streak. I really don't think this Wizards team is very good and I hate their make-up (team personality). When 'we' win with them I consider it a blessing and when they lose it is expected. So far, 'we done good.' Atlanta could end up the NBA's worst before the season is over but with Washington's road performance to date 4-12 SU and ATS we will take the points. Take the HAWKS! |

L.A. Lakers at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Nets (+) over Lakers- Break up the Nets...Brooklyn in the '50s used to cry about breaking up the New York Yankees and now it is the Nets who dominate the floor winning five straight and ready to take on LeBron James and the Lakers. To start with we have to understand the NBA player's psych as they travel the country week in and week out. But , some times they only get to visit their favorite destination a limited number of times and the Los Angeles Lakers don't make it to NYC that often. For a team that has had Brooklyn's number in recent seasons this is a very short 'number,' they aren't giving the Lakers much room although they are 12-3-3 ATS in their last 18 visits to Brooklyn. Hangover city for LA or we don't have a chance. Take the NETS! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Top-Rated' Vegas Hotline Utah at Houston 8:00 ET Jazz (+) over Rockets- It has taken about 25 games but it appears that the Rockets are starting to find their 'sea legs' as they have put together three straight wins going 3-0 ATS. Utah who 1-3 in their last four games has already defeated Houston twice this season winning by 11 and 27 points. The Jazz 2017-18 Rookie of the Year Donovan Mitchell is back after missing four games with an assortment of injuries and his offensive contribution is key to the Jazz offense. Utah is glad to be back at sea level as their trip (Saturday) to Mexico City proved to be a shooting nightmare shooting 31% from the floor. Once again it is UTAH! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Top-Rated' Megabucks Sacramento at Minnesota 8:05 ET Timberwolves (-) over Kings- Hey wots-up with this...I would think with the way Sacramento is playing not just covering the spread but dominating their opponents, the Kings have already won the first two meetings both In Sacramento 141-130- and 121-110 so this will be the Wolves first crack at them as hosts. The Kings have won six of their last seven with the only loss was bowing to the Warriors but are 7-1 ATS in the last eight and yet they are a heavy underdog against a Minnesota team that has lost four in-a-row. Sacramento is 0-5 ATS playing with no rest and they are off of a win at Dallas Sunday. Add the Minnesota is 4-1 ATS in their last five home games. If Smells like payback to me!...Take the TIMBERWOLVES! |

Phoenix who is 0-5 ATS in their last five road games will be without Trevor Ariza who was traded over the weekend but are 6-2 ATS in their last eight trips to Madison Square Garden. If you consider the points allowed (+3) for the home court advantage the odds-makers are rating the Suns higher than the Knicks. This 'line' would have Phoenix favored if this game was played on a neutral site. Take the SUNS! |

L.A. Lakers at Washington 6:00 ET Wizards (+) over Lakers- The Wizards have lost four straight and haven't won since their mini 3-game winning streak when the defeated such powerhouses as Atlanta, Brooklyn and New York. The Lakers after a slow start have won seven of their last nine and they are off last night's 128-100 romp over Charlotte where both LeBron James and Lonzo Ball had triple-doubles. That is the first time teammates had triple-doubles in the same game in 36 years. Washington just pulled off a trade and acquired Trevor Ariza from the Suns and he should help with their 3-point shooting currently at 32.8%. Considering that L.A. Is 12-5-1 in their last 18 meetings in Washington this line is way too low. Looks like a 'come-get-me' to me. Take WASHINGTON! |

Portland has dropped their last two games, 7-of-10 and after a 10-3 start is reeling as they have won just five of their last 15 games. The status of the Raptors Kawhi Leonard who has missed the past two games doesn't hurt the balance of this Toronto squad that is well balanced. Although the Raptors has swept the two-game series in each of the last three seasons they are just 3-7 ATS in the last 10 meetings in Portland. Take the TRAILBLAZERS! |

Indiana on the other hand has won five straight and after an 11-game absence Victor Oladipo has returned as the Pacers trail the 76ers by just a half-game. Philadelphia is off of a 127-124 loss at Brooklyn when they sent the Nets to the foul line 43 times. Jimmy Butler is questionable once again and their chemistry has yet to jell. Add that the Pacers are 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings and 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings in Philadelphia. Take INDIANA. |

The Grizzlies after a quick start have lost six of nine while the Blazers have lost seven of their last 10. Memphis will have a hampered Mike Conley who injured his hamstring against the Nuggets is expected to play but his effectiveness is to be questioned. The Memphis offense has slowed down a bit scoring less than 100 points in five of their last six games. Take PORTLAND! |

Boston pulled off a win in New Orleans Monday without Kylie Irving, Gordon Hayward, Al Horford, Aron Baynes and Guerschon Yabusele (his loss was crucial) with Irving and Hayward being day-to-day but the rest will once again be MIA. Washington who trailed by 26 points in their most recent loss were without John Wall (day-to-day) and Otto Porter. The Celtics have won six straight going 6-0 ATS while Washington has dropped their last two but are 4-0 ATS in their last four home games. The price seems a bit short and 'we'll' take the WIZARDS! |

The Pacers have been playing without their start Victor Oladipo who has missed 11 consecutive games in which Indiana is 7-4 straight-up but he did return to practice Tuesday. The Bucks posted a 118-101 home win over the Pacers in mid-October and I expect as reversal here. Take INDIANA! |

Portland at Houston 8:00 ET Rockets (+) over Trailblazers- The Houston Rockets have lost seven of their last nine games and have 14 losses this season which is just three shy of all the losses they accumulated last season. The issue with the Rockets is no longer the presence of Carmelo Anthony but their lack of defense (29th) and meager contribution by the bench which is dead last (28.2) in NBA scoring. Portland opened the year with a 104-85 in a game they never trailed. Portland has won their last two after losing six of their previous seven and but have lost seven of the last nine meetings including the win this season. The Trailblazers have struggled on the road trail losing their last four and are just 4-8 ATS allowing 115.2 points per contest. It is time for the Rockets to take off and blast Portland here.

Despite the defeat Utah is 9-8 on the road and actually allows less points on the road than at home while the Thunder are 9-3 SU and 7-5 ATS at home.

Sacramento has made huge strides this season with the addition of Marvin Bagley III to work with center Willie Cauley-Stein and shooting guard Buddy Hield. The Kings who are playing their fourth straight road game are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 meetings at Chicago.

Minnesota on the other hand after slow start and the trade of Jimmy Butler has changed their fortunes as they have won their last two and six of seven. These two have played twice already each holding serve on their home court with the Blazers winning by 30-points 111-81 as a 5.5-point favorite on Nov. 4. Tonight, they opened -1.5 and that is a huge difference. Consider this Minnesota is 6-19-1 ATS in the last 26 meetings in Portland and are 13-37-1 ATS in the last 51 meetings. Yet, tonight, they opened at 1.5-points. The Trailblazers have been in a funk and beating Phoenix at home is hardly anything that will fix these problems. This one 'stinks'...take TIMBERWOLVES! |

Memphis has won 3-of-4 including their 107-103 win at New Orleans last night. The Grizzlies have completely turned things around from last season but this season they are still just 1-6 ATS in the second of back-to-back games. Los Angeles is playing much better basketball after a shaky start and they had won four straight before last night's collapse. Tonight, led by 'King James' the Lakers close the deal.

Although these two have similar records it appears that it is the nets that are up and coming while New York just flounders year after year. Brooklyn is 7-6 ATS in the road while the Knicks are 4-7 straight-up. Brooklyn has struggled at Madison Square Garden going 1-7 ATS in their last eight subway rides into Manhattan.

L.A. Lakers at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs over Lakers- This game to me will say a lot about the Spurs! 'We' have don't quite well playing against them to date but at some time they will be in a spot where they need it and 'we' need it and tonight is one of those night. To start with this is the second of back-to-back meetings, the Lakers won in Los Angeles 121-113 Wednesday as LeBron James took over in the final quarter scoring 14 straight points and 42 overall. San Antonio has lost four of five with three of the losses by 30-points or more. Oddly enough this in the fourth and final meeting of the of the season with the Spurs winning the first two. But, as I mentioned earlier this is a pivotal game for San Antonio to gather the troops LaMarcus Aldridge, Rudy Gay and dear I say, DeMar (The Hoax) DeRozan (God, I hate that guy!) But, I more than like the Spurs to respond as professionals and win here. If you have to lay -120 or anything close on the 'money line,' I would. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

So, here we have the Nuggets winners of seven straight coming to play Charlotte who have lost three straight. I could mention the Hornets are 8-5 SU at home where they seen to get 'up' for Denver as the are 4-1 ATS in the last five and Charlotte is 5-1 ATS against teams with winning records about .600. This one should come down to the final buzzer. Take CHARLOTTE! |

Philadelphia at Detroit 7:00 ET Pistons (+) over 76ers- With the acquisition of Jimmy Butler teams are beginning to put a little more focus on Philadelphia when they get them in their sites. But, the 76ers are too inexperienced to handle that kind of everyday pressure. Teams that can have targets on their backs need to be experienced with strong leadership that have winning team are qualities. It's too early for Philly to handle that load especially on the road where they still need to mature as a team. They are great at home 13-1, but 4-8 SU and 3-9 ATS on the road including 1-6 ATS in their last seven trips to Detroit. The Piston are 9-4 SY at home and have lost their last two. Embiid and Butler matched against Griffin and Drummond has the making of a great encounter if they give to the game what they should (NBA players take too many games off and some of them they are playing in). I think the natural response is to jump on the Sixers off their last at Toronto, but this is the first of back-to-back meetings (Monday at Philly) and I expect the home team to prevail here. Take DETROIT! |

12-06-18 | Rockets +2 v. Jazz | 91-118 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 15 m | Show | |
Houston at Utah 10:30 ET Rockets (+) over Jazz- The usual defensive minded Jazz scored 139 points on Tuesday against the Spurs setting a franchise record with 20 3-pointers. Houston is off of their 103-91 loss at Minnesota Monday where they scored just 29 points in the second half including just nine points in the final quarter. Part of the Rockets problem was the effort and production of Chris (The Hoax) Paul who was 1-of-8 shooting. Paul is such an important part of the Rockets overall team play (if they have any at all) and I expect him to 'rebound' here (Excuse the pun). Having played the majority of their games on the road the Jazz are just 3-6 SU at home and are 0-4 ATS in than last four meetings in Utah with the Rockets were going 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Take HOUSTON! |

12-05-18 | Hornets +5 v. Wolves | 104-121 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 50 m | Show | |
Charlotte at Minnesota 8:00 ET Hornets (+) over Timberwolves- So, like up see how Minnesota has far4ed since jettisoned Jimmy Butler to Philadelphia, well, they have won five of their last six and are finally at .500. The T'wolves have been outstanding at home going 14-0 SU and 9-5 ATS while the Hornets who have a losing straight-up record on the road they are 6-4 ATS. These two have split the series in each of the last two seasons. For some unexplained reason Charlotte has managed to win seven time in the last nine trips to Minnesota. Take the HORNETS! |
|||||||
12-05-18 | 76ers +6.5 v. Raptors | 102-113 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 44 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Toronto 8:00 ET 76ers (+) over Raptors- This is one game that would like to see in person. Although Philadelphia has lost 12 straight times to the Raptors and are 1-6 ATS in their last seven trips to Toronto. But, both clubs have gone through major changes as Jimmy Butler has joined the 76ers and Kawhi Leonard has replaced DeMar DeRozan for Toronto. This has made both teams better but Philly also has Joel Embiid and has eliminated a drag on their play as Markelle Fultz has finally been put to pasture. Although, Toronto is off a loss at home (1-5 ATS last six as hosts) and this game should come down to the final buzzer. Take 76ERS! |

12-05-18 | Nuggets v. Magic +5.5 | Top | 124-118 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 5 m | Show |
Denver at Orlando 7:00 ET Magic (+) over Nuggets- Both of these clubs are on winning streaks as Orlando has won their last two and the Nuggets are on a season high six game ride with the last win at Toronto Monday night. But, the Denver win may have been costly as leading scorer Gary Harris is scheduled for an MRI today and will not play. The Nuggets pounded the Magic 112-87 in Denver November 23 and should suffer a bit of a letdown after defeating the Raptors at Toronto on Monday. The Magic are 10-6 straight-up in their last 16 and are looking forward to start winning at home. Take ORLANDO! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Highest-Rated' Money Game Orlando at Miami 7:35 ET Magic (+) over Heat- This Miami team inconsistency is like the part of Joe Pesci spoke of in Oliver Stone's film, an enigma and a riddle all mixed into to one and there is no answer. 'We' have been very fortunate on-and-against the Heat both home and away so I always feel confident what having a side in their games. This is the final stop for the Magic on a season high six game road trip and a win here would even the trip 3-3. Miami has won the last two at home following a six game home losing streak Orlando is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings and are on a 4-0 ATS run in their last four games while Miami is 1-6 ATS at home against teams with losing records. Magic are 8-3 ATS on the road while Miami is now 5-8 ATS as hosts. Take ORLANDO! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA Power Play Best Bet Houston at Minnesota 8:00 ET Timberwolves (+) over Rockets- Houston had lost four strait before they posted a pair of wins against the Bulls and Spurs and now 11-11 on the season. Meanwhile. The Timberwolves just had their four-game win streak stopped by Boston on Saturday and have fallen to 11-12. This is the first meeting since the Rockets took Minnesota down 4-1 in the NBA Playoffs last April and both clubs have gone through multiple changes as the T'wolves are 9-4 straight-up at home while Houston is 5-7 ATS on the road. Take MINNESOTA! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Highest-Rated' Money Game L.A. Clippers at New Orleans 8:00 ET Clippers (+) over Pelicans- The last time these two played each other in late October in New Orleans the Pelicans won their third straight in this series as 5.5 point favorites. Everyone knows just what an impact Anthony Davis has on the game when on the floor scoring points, blocking shots and grabbing rebounds. Tonight he will be facing a formidable foe in the Clippers who had won nine of ten before last night's loss at Dallas but LA still leads the Western Conference with 15 wins. The Pelicans have won the last three meetings but the 'numbers' were much different. Something has happened since their last encounter in the Crescent City as the Pels are now favorites by less than a long field goal attempt. This 'price' tells me the Clippers have gained ground or that New Orleans is slipping. Either way...take LA. CLIPPERS! |

12-03-18 | Thunder v. Pistons +2 | 110-83 | Loss | -103 | 8 h 37 m | Show | |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA Vegas Hotline Best Bet Oklahoma City at Detroit 7:00 ET Pistons (+) over Thunder- Under the reigning NBA Coach of the Year Dwane Casey the Detroit Pistons are a surprising 13-7 and are 9-3 straight-up at home and are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games. After starting 0-4 Oklahoma City has gone 14-3 but play five of their next six on the road. With Russell Westbrook leading the way the Thunder shoots 31.5% from 3-point range and ranks last in the NBA. Right now the Pistons rank 29th in overall field goal percentage but are one of the strongest rebounding team in the league. Take DETROIT! |

L.A. Clippers at Dallas 7:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Clippers- My, my, my just look at those Clippers, they are the 'best' in the West with their 15-6 record and have won nine of 10 including their last four both SU and ATS. Dallas at 10-10 is in a better spot then most expected at this time with rookie Luke Doncic and veteran center DeAndre Jordan who is facing his ex-teammates for the first time. The Mavericks who are 6-0 ATS in their last six home games and are 14-2 ATS following a loss by 10-points or more and they are 4-1-1 ATS in the last six meetings. Take DALLAS! |

12-01-18 | Nets +7 v. Wizards | 88-102 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 54 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at Washington 7:00 ET Nets (+) over Wizards- Brooklyn lost their fifth straight game last night as the blew a 20-point second half lead going down 131-125 in double-overtime. Washington who just got better with the injury sidelining Dwight Howard have lost their last two and are 1-8 ATS when paying teams with losing records. Brooklyn on the other hand is 0-6 ATS on the second of back-to back contests and are just 4-12 ATS in their last 16 meetings in Washington although the Nets are 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. It's bounce-back time for the Nets...take BROOKLYN! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Highest-Rated' Money Game Golden State at Detroit 7:00 ET Pistons (+) over Warriors- In 11 games without point guard Stephen Curry the Warriors have gone 5-6 but will see the return of the games best pure shooter in the league. Kevin Durant tried to pick up the scoring slack 51 points against the Raptors Thursday and has had 40 or more points in three straight games. The trouble is teams with high scorers don't win and Golden State has struggled with out team balance. Although the Warriors have won 12 of their last 14 meetings they hare just 1-5 ATS in the last five meetings. Detroit is playing well and is 6-1 ATS in their last seven. Take the PISTONS! |

12-01-18 | Bucks v. Knicks +8.5 | 134-136 | Win | 100 | 6 h 46 m | Show | |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA Vegas Hotline Best Bet Milwaukee at New York 5:00 ET Knicks (+) over Bucks- New York has some collection of youth on this hapless squad as they can't shoot and don't play defense. The Knicks were actually on the three-game win streak and then the bottom fell out as they have surrendered 117 and 115 points in their last games both road losses. After a quick start to the season when Giannis Antekounmpo was dominating both ends of the floor the Bucks are just 6-6 in their last 12 games. Although the Knicks are just 7-16 straight-up they are 5-4 ATS at home whereas Milwaukee is just 3-5 ATS on the road. In a surprise...take NEW YORK! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA Vegas Hotline Best Bet Orlando at Phoenix 9:00 ET Suns (+) over Magic- After taking center Deandre Ayton No. 1 in the NBA draft many expected improvement in the Suns but they are 4-17 their worst start in franchise history. Orlando has lost four of five so far on a six-game road trip but are 4-0 ATS in their last four trips to Phoenix. Look for Ayton who had a career low four points last time out to play with more determination tonight. Having dropped their last three the Suns see an opportunity to post a win here. Take PHOENIX! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA Power Play Best Bet New Orleans at Miami 8:00 ET Heat (+) over Pelicans- Miami who made the playoffs last season is just 7-13 on the year and have lost six straight at home and their last two overall. New Orleans who got off to a quick start this season is now 11-11 and have struggled on the road going 2-9 straight-up. The Heat have struggled without Goran Dragic who has missed eight of their last 13 games but have a healthy Hassan Whiteside who can keep Anthony Davis under control. Take MIAMI! |

Utah at Charlotte 7:00 ET Jazz (+) over Hornets- So the storyline here is that Utah has acquired Kyle Kover from Cleveland and the 37 year old believe it or not was one of the most productive player on the Cavaliers. Utah is off to a slow start (10-12) but are 8-6 straight-up on the road. Charlotte has been good to 'us' and their backers this season posting a 14-7 ATS record including 8-8 ATS at home. A a matter of fact the Hornets have defeated Utah four straight time at home both SU and ATS with the Jazz last winning in Dec. of 2013. After a team meeting the Utah says that they are 'locked-in' as team communication has improved. Take UTAH! |

11-29-18 | Warriors v. Raptors -9 | Top | 128-131 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 15 m | Show |
Golden State at Toronto 8:00 ET Raptors (-) over Warriors- Nine points...That's right the Warriors opened a 9-point underdog to the Raptors and both Stephen Curry and Draymond Green are expected back soon possibly tonight. Golden State has been without Curry for 10 games and are 5-5 but have won their last three while Toronto is on a six-game winning streak. The Warriors are just 4-5 on the road and an even worse 2-7 ATS but have won the last eight in the series and yet the Raptors are a huge favorite here as the Warriors just don't have the same team chemistry. Take TORONTO! |

Atlanta at Charlotte 7:00 ET Hornets (-) over Hawks- Atlanta ended a 10-game win streak with a home win over the Hornets on Sunday and defeated Miami 115-113 last night. This is the third meeting already this season between these two with each wining at home. Charlotte has won the past six home games against the Hawks and are 7-3 both SU and ATS at home. With the return of Michael Kidd-Gilchrist the Hornets bounced back with a 110-107 win over Milwaukee. Atlanta is 1-7-1 ATS in their last nine trips to Charlotte...take the HORNETS! |

11-27-18 | Lakers +4 v. Nuggets | 85-117 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 54 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at Denver 8:00 ET Lakers (+) over Nuggets- Denver had a bad stretch where they lost six of seven but have reeled off three wins and covers in the last six days while Los Angeles is off a home loss to Orlando on Sunday. The Lakers have won seven of their last nine since Nov. 7 with both losses to the Magic. Even though LA is 0-4 in the last four meetings that was in the pre-LeBron era and 'we' could counter that with the Lakers are 4-0 ATS after a ATS loss. LA is a respectable 5-4 SU on the road and with James running the show after a loss...it's the LAKERS! |

11-27-18 | Raptors v. Grizzlies +5 | Top | 122-114 | Loss | -107 | 10 h 1 m | Show |
Toronto at Memphis 8:00 ET Grizzlies (+) over Raptors- Toronto appears to have righted the ship winning their last five after dropping the previous three. Meanwhile, the hometown Grizzlies have lost their last two falling at the Clippers in overtime and then returning home and getting ambushed by New York who has won a season high three straight. The Raptors swept the two-game series last year and are 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. But, there's always a but, this is a much different Memphis club as they are NBA leaders in defense and had 19 blocked shots against the Knicks and former coach David Fizdale. These bears will have bite tonight...take the GRIZZLIES! |

N.Y. Knicks at Detroit 7:00 ET Knicks (+) over Pistons- New York has put together their longest win streak of the season at three after a six game losing streak as their youth movement seems to be panning out. The Knicks are now 7-14 on the season but are 6-5-1 ATS in their 12 road games. Enes Kanter at 26 is the oldest player on the roster and is looking for more minutes as he posted his third straight double-double with 21 points and 26 rebounds against the Grizzlies on Sunday. Detroit won all three meetings last season but the Knicks are 4-0 ATS in the last four and are playing with confidence. Take NEW YORK! |

11-26-18 | Pacers v. Jazz -5.5 | 121-88 | Loss | -108 | 9 h 57 m | Show | |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NBA 'Hotline' Best Bet Indiana at Utah 9:00 ET Jazz (+) over Pacers- The Jazz return home after playing seven of their last eight on the road losing five of six before a win last night at Sacramento. One of those losses was at Indiana where the Pacers took a 121-94 victory over the Jazz. Now, it is the Pacers that are embarking on a four-game road trip starting in Salt Lake City where they are 1-5 ATS in this situation. They make be without Victor Oladipo who has missed the last three (1-2) and Domantas Sabonis is questionable. Utah is just 2-5 SU at home and look for that to change in a positive way tonight. Take the JAZZ! |

11-26-18 | Spurs v. Bulls +6 | 108-107 | Win | 100 | 8 h 1 m | Show | |
San Antonio at Chicago 8:00 ET Bulls (+) over Spurs- When teams get this bad (Chicago) I usually try and stay away from getting involved one way or another either on or against. But, the points are the equalizer and San Antonio is just not the same clubs they have been in the recent past. The Spurs are 9-10 straight-up and 3-7 SU on the road and yet favored here against the Bulls who are 6-5 ATS as hosts. Chicago has dropped 1-7 ATS in their last eight but San Antonio is 0-4 ATS in their last four trips to the 'Windy City.' Take the BULLS! |

11-26-18 | Rockets v. Wizards +4 | Top | 131-135 | Win | 100 | 7 h 10 m | Show |
Houston at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over Rockets- The Wizards were off to a terrible start but have managed to win five of their last eight games and how host the over-rated Rockets. It took Houston 10 games to realize that Carmelo Anthony was more of a liability than an assets but they are still having their own issues and are 7-1 ATS overall. Each team won on their home curt as they split a pair of decisions last season. Dwight Howard is day-to-day and has missed the Wizards' last three games...it won't matter. Take WASHINGTON! |

Clippers at Portland 9:00 ET Clippers (+) over Trailblazers- Portland just finish a six-game road trip where they staggered at the end getting blown out in their last two outings losing 143-100 and 125-97 to the Bucks and Warriors. These two met right here two weeks ago as the Trailblazers posted a 116-105 win. As they have won the last four in the series going 4-0 ATS. Now, it is the Clippers turn to take to the road where they will play eight of their next 11 and it starts here with a win. Take LA CLIPPERS! |

11-25-18 | Jazz -2.5 v. Kings | 133-112 | Win | 100 | 7 h 18 m | Show | |
Utah at Sacramento 8:00 ET Jazz (+) over Kings- Gosh is this ugly to me or what and maybe it is personal. The Utah Jazz will could very well be without leading scorer Donavan Mitchell as they are in the mist of a 3-game losing streak. The thing that makes it personal is that 'we' have been riding the Kings and winning while I've had the Jazz the last two times out and have gotten beat twice. Now, it comes to a spot where Sacramento is a small favorite after a heart-breaking loss at the buzzer to Golden State last night. The history here is not good for Utah who is 0-4 ATS in the last four meetings and 1-5 ATS in their last six overall. Yeah, it is ugly but there is only one side for me. Take the JAZZ! |

Philadelphia at Brooklyn 6:00 ET Nets (+) over 76ers- Philadelphia has to be the most intriguing team in the NBA this season with the presence of confident and arrogant Joel Embiid and now the acquisition of Jimmy Butler and the soon departure of former No. 1 draft pick Markus Fultz. The Sixers remind me of a neighborhood bully...in their own neighborhood. They are now 10-1 at home after a loss to the Cavaliers but a meager 3-7 both SU and ATS on the road and one might think that as an advantage but Brooklyn is just 3-5 SU and 2-6 ATS at home. One of those home wins came the first week of November over these 76ers. They can do it again. Take the N-E-T-S! |

Boston at Dallas 8:30 ET Mavericks (+) over Celtics- Boston got just what the doctor ordered ending a three-game losing streak with a crushing win over the hapless Hawks in Atlanta. Now, they are off to Dallas where they have had great success going 4-1 ATS in the last five trips. But, there is an issue with this years version of the Celtics as the return of Gordon Hayward hasn't gone a smoothly as hoped. Boston is just 1-5 ATS when playing with no rest and the Mavericks are 5-0 ATS in their last five home games and 5-1 ATS in their last six games overall. Take DALLAS! |
