01-27-18 | Wizards v. Hawks +5.5 | 129-104 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 10 m | Show | |
Washington at Atlanta 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Wizards- Boy, are the Wizards reeling if not straight-up at least against the points where they are 1-9 in their last 10. Atlanta on the other hand is 5-0 ATS in the second of back-to back games if at home as they fell in the final minutes to Charlotte last night as they Hornets scored the games final 12 points. The Hawks are playing their best basketball of the season and get the 'money' here. Take ATLANTA! |

01-27-18 | Thunder v. Pistons +4 | Top | 121-108 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 2 m | Show |
Oklahoma City at Detroit 5:05 ET Pistons (+) over Thunder- A half dozen, six that is the key number surrounding this encounter between Oklahoma City who is on a six game win streak their longest of the season and six is the number of games Detroit has lost without a win.This battle is the fourth of a 4-game home stand for the Pistons and they have yet to win or cover. They play the Cavaliers at Cleveland on Sunday and then return home for six straight but have had an edge over the Thunder who are 1-5 ATS in their last six meetings in Detroit. Take the PISTONS!  |
|||||||
01-26-18 | 76ers +3.5 v. Spurs | 97-78 | Win | 100 | 10 h 16 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at San Antonio 8:30 ET 76ers (+) over Spurs- San Antonio has had its way in this series winning 12 straight until Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons teamed-up and handed the Spurs their first loss in the series on Jan. 3. The Spurs just won their last two despite a number of injuries against Cleveland and Memphis and will be without LaMarcus Aldridge, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker. The 76ers are 5-1 ATS in the last seven meetings and get the money again tonight. Take PHILADELPHIA! |
|||||||
01-26-18 | Rockets v. Pelicans +4 | Top | 113-115 | Win | 100 | 10 h 51 m | Show |
Houston at New Orleans 8:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Rockets- It looks like the Rockets have finally 'taken-off' as they have won four straight and seven of their last eight including 6-2 ATS. New Orleans who most believe should be doing better has picked up the pace themselves winning their last three and six of their last seven. Houston has dominated this series winning nine of the last 11 meetings including a 130-123 home win when the Pelicans were without Anthony Davis. He will play tonight and New Orleans will pick-up a win. Take the PELICANS! |
|||||||
01-26-18 | Jazz +8 v. Raptors | 97-93 | Win | 100 | 9 h 11 m | Show | |
Utah at Toronto 7:00 ET Jazz (+) over Raptors- Toronto has been sitting behind Boston and Cleveland in the East all season and while their top competitors have fallen off the pace the Raptors continue to play strong and are making a push as they are now tied with the Celtics in the loss column. They have the best home record in the conference at 17-3 while Utah is just 6-19 straight up on the road with their last win at Detroit Wednesday. Toronto is 9-0 ATS in the last nine meetings against the Jazz but should play close here. Take UTAH! |
|||||||
01-25-18 | Wizards +5.5 v. Thunder | Top | 112-121 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 58 m | Show |
Washington at Oklahoma City 8:00 ET Wizards (+) over Thunder- Their is no question (at least in my mind) that Oklahoma City has turned things around as they have put together their longest win streak of the season at five straight games. The Wizards on the other hand are reeling having lost three of their last four six of their last eight and are 1-8 ATS in their last nine outings. Both clubs will have reserve guards in the All-star game with Russell Westbrook of the Thunder and John Wall of the Wizards making the trip. But, the boo-ha-ha is coming from Oklahoma City and Westbrook feel that Paul George should have gotten the nod. OKC is just 10-14 ATS at home and get the Wizards when the need a win in the worst way. Take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
01-25-18 | Kings v. Heat -10 | 89-88 | Loss | -108 | 10 h 32 m | Show | |
Sacramento at Miami 7:30 ET Heat (-) over Kings- Miami has been good to 'us' this season but most of that 'winning' against the points has come when they were underdogs. Tonight they are heavy favorites over a Kings team that just posted a road win at Orlando but had lost their previous eight going 2-6 ATS. The Heat are off a loss to Houston when their top three guards Waiters, Dragic and Johnson were out with injuries but expect a return here. The Kings are just 3-12 ATS in their last 15 games in Miami. Take the HEAT! |
|||||||
01-24-18 | Rockets v. Mavs +6.5 | 104-97 | Loss | -102 | 8 h 30 m | Show | |
Houston at Dallas 8:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Rockets- Houston with the return of a healthy James Harden and Chris Paul have run their current win streak to four games sweeping three straight playoff teams (Minnesota, Golden State and Miami) in the process. They will have the added presence of Trevor Ariza and Gerald Green who are back after serving a two-game suspension. Dallas at 16-31 straight-up is a surprising 24-22-1 ATS on the season but have lost five straight against the Rockets who have won 11 of the last 14 meetings and 21 of the last 30 in Dallas. Still, The Mavericks are playing their best ball of the season. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
01-24-18 | Raptors v. Hawks +6 | 108-93 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 6 m | Show | |
Toronto at Atlanta 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Raptors- Toronto has cooled off a bit losing their fourth game in their last seven after winning 17 of 20. Atlanta on the other hand is improving on a daily basis going 7-7 straight-up after a 7-25 start including winners in four of their last six contests. The Raptors have had the best of it against the Hawks going 10-4 ATS in the last 14 meetings but the Hawks are 4-0 ATS at home against teams with a winning record. Take ATLANTA! |
|||||||
01-24-18 | Jazz +2.5 v. Pistons | Top | 98-95 | Win | 100 | 8 h 41 m | Show |
Utah at Detroit 7:00 ET Jazz (+) over Pistons- For the first time this season the Pistons are out of the playoff picture right now as a result of their current five-game losing streak and ending eight of their last 10 games with losses. Detroit just hasn't been the same since the loss of Reggie Jackson (going 3-9 without him). Like the Pistons Utah has fallen to 19-28 since suffering injuries of their own. But, injuries have allowed the emergence of Donovan Mitchell who leads the Jazz in scoring. Utah is 10-2 ATS in their last 12 trips to Detroit. Take the JAZZ! |
|||||||
01-23-18 | Celtics v. Lakers +5 | Top | 107-108 | Win | 100 | 12 h 8 m | Show |
Boston at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET Lakers (+) over Celtics- Their are two teams that are a bit 'off' recently and no one can deny the Cavaliers are one but have any seen the slow pace (point spread) the Celtics have been keeping lately having lost their last three. 'We' missed 'against' them on Sunday because I thought that might be a spot for them to regroup and they lost outright at home to Orlando. Los Angeles has adjusted to with out Ball and have won their last two and five straight at home going 5-0 ATS. Take LOS ANGELES! |
|||||||
01-23-18 | Cavs -1 v. Spurs | 102-114 | Loss | -108 | 10 h 32 m | Show | |
Cleveland at San Antonio 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Spurs- Okay how long is this going to go on? When teams play and the result is 'a franchise worst' I look to play on-them their next time out and that is today for the Cleveland Cavaliers. As we all know the Cavaliers allowed a franchise high 148 to Oklahoma City Saturday afternoon and have now lost nine of their last 12. LeBron says he has no answers as they go to San Antonio where the Spurs own the NBA's best home record and are 19-3 straight-up and 16-6 ATS. So, why lest then a bucket? Cavs such and Spurs win at home but this line is too inviting. Take CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
01-22-18 | Wizards v. Mavs +2 | 75-98 | Win | 100 | 9 h 43 m | Show | |
Washington at Dallas 8:30 ET Mavericks (+) over Wizards- After a terrible stretch where the Wizards failed to cover in seven straight games and 8-of-9 they trounced the Pistons 122-112 in Detroit on Saturday. Dallas who is at the break-even point against the ATS 23-22-1 have dropped their last three against the West losing to the Lakers, Nuggets and Trailblazers and return home to pay a club they have already beaten 113-99 at Washington. The Mavericks have swept the season series in six of the past seven seasons. They do it again tonight. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
01-22-18 | Jazz v. Hawks +2.5 | Top | 90-104 | Win | 100 | 8 h 48 m | Show |
Utah at Atlanta 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Jazz- Year after year the Utah Jazz have played with one of the NBA's strongest home court advantages and this season is no different as this now bottom dweller is five-games over .500 at home but an atrocious 5-18 straight-up on the road and are 6-17 straight-up in their last 22 games. Atlanta who has the worst record in the league has been a money maker at home going 12-10 ATS and once again is getting points from a team that can't win on the road. Take ATLANTA! |
|||||||
01-22-18 | Kings v. Hornets -10 | 107-112 | Loss | -108 | 7 h 23 m | Show | |
Sacramento at Charlotte 7:00 ET Hornets (-) over Kings- Sacramento has dropped seven straight and nine of their last 10 going just 2-8 ATS. Unlike the Kings Charlotte is headed in the other direction as they fight to get to .500. going 6-4 in their last 10 straight-up. With the trade deadline approaching (Feb 8) the Hornets are looking to move their most productive player Kemba Walker who leads the team in scoring, assists and steals. This hasn't effected his play or the play of those around him as the Hornets are playing their best ball of the season. Take CHARLOTTE! |
|||||||
01-21-18 | Pacers +6 v. Spurs | 94-86 | Win | 100 | 8 h 24 m | Show | |
Indiana at San Antonio 7:00 ET Pacers (+) over Spurs- San Antonio is off a grueling stretch where they played nine of their last 11 games on the road and return home after going 3-6 during those road games. The Spurs have the best home record in the NBA at 19-2 straight-up and an impressive 15-5-1 ATS. Indiana has struggled in their last two road games shooting a combined 9-of-52 from beyond the arc while losing to Portland and the Lakers. The Pacers are 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings and should get the money here. Take INDIANA! |
|||||||
01-20-18 | Raptors +3.5 v. Wolves | 109-115 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 30 m | Show | |
Toronto at Minnesota 9:00 ET Raptors (+) over Timberwolves- Toronto has won eight of their last 11 and has been a consistent winner this season both at home 17-3 and on the road 14-10 as they trail only Golden State, Houston and Boston in away wins. Minnesota has lost their last two and can lose three straight for the first time this season. The Raptors have dominated this series winning 22 of the last 24 meetings. Take TORONTO! |
|||||||
01-20-18 | Warriors v. Rockets +4 | Top | 108-116 | Win | 100 | 9 h 10 m | Show |
Golden State at Houston 8:30 ET Rockets (+) over Warriors- Golden State is streaking once again so what's new, well Curry is back and that always helps but Houston has put together a fine run of their own. Having won Thursday with the return of James Harden the Rockets have won 4-of-5. Houston defeated the Warriors opening night 122-121 at Golden State and the Warriors returned the favor in Houston 124-114 two weeks ago. This time the Rockets blast Golden State. Take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
01-20-18 | Thunder v. Cavs -3 | 148-124 | Loss | -105 | 4 h 10 m | Show | |
Oklahoma City at Cleveland 3:30 ET Cavaliers (-) over Thunder- The point spread nightmare that is called 'Cleveland' continues at an astounding rate be it football (Browns (4-12 ATS) basketball the Cavaliers (12-31 ATS including 3-17-1 ATS at home) and gosh even the Indians blew twice up 3-1 against Boston and 2-0 against the Yankees. The Cavs held a 23-point 2nd quarter and 19-point half time leads against Orlando Thursday but they shot 1-for-17 from 3-point range in the second half and were lucky to escape with a one-victory. OKC is better but now by much as they are 8-13 ATS on the road but are on a 3-games winning streak...and news for the Thunder they are 0-5 ATS in their last five tripes to Cleveland. Take the cursed city...CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
01-19-18 | Knicks +6 v. Jazz | 117-115 | Win | 100 | 12 h 12 m | Show | |
New York at Utah 10:30 ET Knicks (+) over Jazz- Talk about heading in the wrong directions both these clubs have been in a 'fee fall' for weeks. New York after a fine start with a favorable heavy home schedule has dropped 11 of their last 14 games while Utah has lost 15 of their last 20. These two met in mid-November and the Knicks pull off a106-101 home win and are now 22-4 ATS in the last 26 meetings including 13-3 ATS in Salt Lake. New York just has owned the Jazz and I expect a bug effort out of the Knicks after Wednesday's letdown in Memphis. Take NEW YORK! |
|||||||
01-19-18 | Heat v. Nets +3.5 | 95-101 | Win | 100 | 9 h 16 m | Show | |
Miami at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Nets (+) over Heat- The last time these two met was in Mexico City and the Heat who were under .500 at the time kicked off a run with 15 wins in 20 games. Miami has since lost playing time from Dion Waiters (out for the season) and are playing without Tyler Johnson but have the return of Hassan Whiteside who did not play in the first meeting. Brooklyn has dropped their last five at home but will welcome the return of D'Angelo Russell who has been activated today and is available for the first time since Nov. 17. Take the NETS! |
|||||||
01-19-18 | Spurs +6 v. Raptors | Top | 83-86 | Win | 100 | 9 h 54 m | Show |
San Antonio at Toronto 7:00 ET Spurs (+) over Spurs- So what's to big deal? San Antonio will be without Kawhi Leonard for who knows how long but that is nothing they haven't been dealing with the past two seasons. The Spurs are 25-12 without Leonard (just 5-4 win him) as coach Gregg Popovich can win with anybody on the floor. Toronto who is 16-5 straight-up at home and 11-8 ATS have lost the last four in this series and are 3-7 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
01-18-18 | Wolves v. Rockets -5 | 98-116 | Win | 100 | 10 h 59 m | Show | |
Minnesota at Houston 9:30 ET Rockets (-) over Timberwolves- I must say, when I first looked at this matchup I immediately looked toward Minnesota. But, you know what so will everybody else. Upon further review 'we' see that the Timberwolves have lost nine straight times in Houston but, the visitor is 5-0 ATS the last five in Houston. The Rockets have won four of their last five with their loss coming at LA where they 'almost' won the post game fight. Tim Harden is still out and the Rockets are 4-3 in his absence. Chris Paul takes over...take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
01-18-18 | Magic v. Cavs -10.5 | 103-104 | Loss | -108 | 8 h 43 m | Show | |
Orlando at Cleveland 7:00 ET Cavaliers (-) over Magic- The 'numbers' are staggering! The Cavaliers are by far the worst ATS record in the league and there is no other team close. Cleveland is 0-6 ATS in their last six games and are just 12-30 ATS on the season including just 3-16-1 ATS at home. So, here they are now a double-digit favorite seeking revenge for a loss inflicted by the Magic 114-93 at Cleveland in October. Previous to that the Cavaliers had won 17 straight meetings. A new streak starts tonight. Take the CAVALIERS! |
|||||||
01-18-18 | 76ers +4.5 v. Celtics | Top | 89-80 | Win | 100 | 7 h 26 m | Show |
Philadelphia at Boston 7:00 ET 76ers (+) over Celtics- Philadelphia has won five of their last six games with their only loss came at the hands of the Celtics in London after blowing a 22-point first half lead.This is just Boston's second game in 11 days and their last time out losing at home to the Pelicans. The 76ers will be without J.J. Redick and that hurts but as long as Joel Embiid has playing time you always have a shot. Granted the Celtics are 3-0 both SU and ATS against Philly this season and have won seven straight at home but this is a 'bigger' game for the Sixers then it is for Boston. Take PHILADELPHIA!  |
|||||||
01-17-18 | Heat +4.5 v. Bucks | 106-101 | Win | 100 | 9 h 41 m | Show | |
Miami at Milwaukee 8:00 ET Heat (+) over Bucks- Without question (in my mind), Eric Spoelstra is one of the more under-rated coaches in the NBA and he once again has Miami in playoff contention with no 'name' player on his roster. The Heat had won their sixth straight Sunday over the Bucks in Miami 97-79 Sunday but dropped their next contest at Chicago 119-111 to end their streak. The Heat do it for the most part with a tight defense and have won three straight in the series and are 4-1 in the last five meetings. Miami is 12-9 both straight-up and ATS on the road while Milwaukee is 14-8 SU but has 'covered' just seven of 22 home games. Take MIAMI!  |
|||||||
01-17-18 | Pelicans v. Hawks +2.5 | Top | 93-94 | Win | 100 | 8 h 14 m | Show |
New Orleans at Atlanta 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Pelicans- The Pelicans' Anthony Davis has returned from his latest minor injury and has scored 48 and 45 points in last last two games along with 16 and 15 rebounds and has scored 30 or more points in seven of his last nine contests. New Orleans has followed his lead winning their last three and are seeking their fifth win in six tries. Atlanta who has the worst record in the NBA have won two-of-three including a 102-99 win over San Antonio Monday and are 8-12 straight-up at home and 11-9 ATS. With the Pelicans off an overtime win at Boston 116-113 and could get caught here. Take ATLANTA!   |
|||||||
01-16-18 | Mavs +6 v. Nuggets | 102-105 | Win | 100 | 9 h 26 m | Show | |
Dallas at Denver 9:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Nuggets- Denver has lost four of their last five including a 32-point loss to the Spurs their last time out on Saturday. Dallas meanwhile has gone 6-4 straight-up in their last 10 games and are 4-0 ATS in their last four road games. Although the Mavericks are 6-14 straight-up on the road but are 12-8 ATS and can give the nuggets fits tonight. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
01-16-18 | Pelicans +5 v. Celtics | Top | 116-113 | Win | 100 | 8 h 16 m | Show |
New Orleans at Boston 7:30 ET Pelicans (+) over Celtics- Boston is at it again in the middle of another winning streak this time it has reached seven games. The Celtics are well rested as their last bit of NBA action took place in London last Thursday a 22-point come from behind victory. Boston has won five of the last six meetings against New Orleans and are 6-2 ATS in the eight meetings. The Pelicans of course are led by Anthony Davis and Boogie Cousins probably the best power combination in the league and have enough to pull of the upset if not just getting the money with the points. Take NEW ORLEANS! |
|||||||
01-16-18 | Wolves v. Magic +8 | 102-108 | Win | 100 | 8 h 41 m | Show | |
Minnesota at Orlando 7:00 ET Magic (+) over Timberwolves- Very quietly Minnesota is playing the kind of ball that many expected of them from the beginning of the season and now face one of their nemesis. The Timberwolves have won five straight and 12 of their last 15. As bad as they are and have been Orlando losers of seven straight and 27 of their last 31 games straight-up has dominated the Timberwolves going 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings including losing eight of their last nine visits to Orlando. It's got to be MAGIC!  |
|||||||
01-15-18 | Rockets v. Clippers +4 | Top | 102-113 | Win | 100 | 12 h 36 m | Show |
Houston at L.A. Clippers 10:30 ET Clippers (+) over Rockets- Ah homecomings they create emotions usually for the player that returns and tonight Chris Paul returns to Los Angeles where he played the first six years of his career with the Clippers. LA faced Houston earlier when they were without Paul and the Clippers took advantage with a 128-118 victory when they still had Patrick Beverley who they received for Paul. This time James Harden is out for the Rockets and the Clippers take advantage once again. Take LOS ANGELES! |
|||||||
01-15-18 | Warriors v. Cavs +6 | 118-108 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 12 m | Show | |
Golden State at Cleveland 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Warriors- The Cavaliers are running through a rough spot have lost their last three and have dropped to 11-12 on the road. Golden State on the other hand has won 12 straight road games and have defeated Cleveland in six of the last seven meetings. The Cavaliers lost twice by a combined 62 points losing to Minnesota and Toronto and then b ew a 22-point lead in losing at Indiana. The weary Cavaliers have been on the road 17 of the last 20 days and welcome the Warriors to Quicken Loans Arena. Take CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
01-13-18 | Nets v. Wizards -9.5 | 113-119 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 1 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (-) over Nets- Despite winning only seven of their first 20 road games the Nets show a neat ATS 13-7 record with the best ATS road record in the NBA. Brooklyn has already beaten Washington twice this season with outright home wins of 119-84 and 103-89 and are getting almost double-digit points here. (?) Upon further review we see that the Nets are 2-12 ATS in the last 14 meetings which means those early season wins for them are the only two 'covers.' Washington who has won seven of their last 10 is aware of what has transpired in the first two encounters and will take a bit of revenge out of the Nets tonight. Take the WIZARDS! |
|||||||
01-13-18 | Thunder v. Hornets +2 | Top | 101-91 | Loss | -108 | 7 h 42 m | Show |
Oklahoma City at Charlotte 5:00 ET Hornets (+) over Thunder- Most of 'us' are still waiting for the Thunder to put it together and their inconsistency in the most consistent thing about this club. Oklahoma City with the addition of Carmelo Anthony and Paul George opened the season 8-12 as many saw a lack of team chemistry and then they went out and won 12 of their next 15 but once again have fallen back losing five of their last seven including their last three. Charlotte who had lost 11 straight to OKC has now defeated them three straight times and are 13-5-1 ATS in the last 19 meetings. Take CHARLOTTE! |
|||||||
01-13-18 | Lakers v. Mavs -4.5 | 107-101 | Loss | -105 | 4 h 47 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at Dallas 2:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Lakers- With virtually the same record at the mid-point of the season these two clubs win at a combined winning percentage of 33. The Lakers have reeled off three straight wins after losing nine in-a-row and are off a 93-81 win over San Antonio. The Mavericks have swept Los Angeles the past four seasons and have defeated them 14 straight times including 6-1 ATS their last seven games in Dallas. I'd like to point out that the Lakers recent wins have all come at home and now they have to take their weak playing defense to the road where they have won just five of 18 games. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
01-12-18 | Rockets v. Suns +7 | Top | 112-95 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 60 m | Show |
Houston at Phoenix 10:30 ET Suns (+) over Rockets- The NBA's leading scorer Houston's James Harden has been sidelined the past five games and Chris Paul has picked-up the slack scoring 26.3 points and 10.5 assists. The Rockets have won their last two and posted an early season win at Phoenix defeating the Suns 142-116. The Suns are 7-5 in their last 12 games overall and have won four of their last seven since the return of guard Devin Booker. In what should be a run and gun affair the home Suns could pull out the outright win. Take PHOENIX! |
|||||||
01-12-18 | Cavs v. Pacers +2.5 | 95-97 | Win | 100 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |
Cleveland at Indiana 7:00 ET Pacers (+) over Cavaliers- The Cavaliers are reeling having lost seven of their last 10 including the last two by a combined 62 points and have the worst ATS record 12-18-1 in the NBA. Indiana is 2-0 against Cleveland already this season and has had the best of the Cavaliers the last four seasons going 12-4-1 ATS in the last 17 meetings including 7-3-1 the last 11 meetings at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. I expect the 'public' to play-on Cleveland looking for them to bounce back from their horrid losses but I believe the Cavs are in a true funk. Take INDIANA! |
|||||||
01-12-18 | Jazz +4 v. Hornets | 88-99 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 33 m | Show | |
Utah at Charlotte 7:00 ET Jazz (+) over Hornets- Weak teams in the NBA must win at home as the road is a tough place for any club (except for the elite) and the Hornets are having problems as hosts. Charlotte is just 10-11 at home and only 2-8 in its last ten but are up against one of the NBA's worst road teams in Utah who despite a win at Washington on Wednesday are 2-10 ATS in their last 12 road games. The Jazz a playoff team a year ago (with Gordon Hayward) have been holding on by playing tough defense. Look for Utah to send Hornets center Dwight Howard to the foul line often and take advantage of his poor free throw shooting. Take UTAH! |
|||||||
01-11-18 | Spurs v. Lakers +3 | Top | 81-93 | Win | 100 | 11 h 39 m | Show |
San Antonio at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET Lakers (+) over Spurs- For a team that doesn't want to play for their coach the Lakers have taken two-giant steps forward with consecutive wins over powerhouses Atlanta and Sacramento. San Antonio is a consistent as ever with an overall 28-14 record and 22-18-2 ATS this season. The Spurs will be without a number of players not because of coach Gregg Popovich is 'resting' them but because of injuries. Missing will be Kawhi Leonard, the leading scorer Rudy Gay, along with Tony Parker and Danny Green. With a new confidence the Lakers get it done. Take LOS ANGELES! |
|||||||
01-11-18 | Clippers v. Kings +1.5 | 121-115 | Loss | -104 | 10 h 5 m | Show | |
L.A. Clippers at Sacramento 10:05 ET Kings (+) over Clippers- Los Angeles who is off a run-away 125-106 win over Golden State last night ended a 12-game losing steak to the Warriors and have won 10 straight times in Sacramento. The Clippers are already 2-0 against the Kings this season and have won 16 of the last 19 meetings straight-up. These numbers are impressive for LA but they are off an emotion win just last night and will still most likely be without Blake Griffin. This time the Kings rule! Take SACRAMENTO! |

Boston vs Philadelphia 3:00 ET 76ers (+) over Celtics- The interesting thing about this game is not that they are playing it in London, it is that the oddsmakers from London, Las Vegas and Off-shore have rated Boston such a small favorite on a neutral site. For the Celtics center Al Horford missed their last outing and is questionable but for Philadelphia Joel Embiid will play. Both clubs enter on winning streaks with Boston having won their last six and the 76ers winning their last four. The 'price' tells me the Sixers have a legitimate shot at winning outright and with Embiid claiming 'we will kick their ass' I believe they will be ready. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

Oklahoma City at Minnesota 8:00 ET Thunder (+) over Timberwolves- Minnesota is off tow huge wins pounding both New Orleans and Cleveland and are headed to the NBA Playoffs for the first time since 2004. OKC has dropped their last two without Chris Paul and showed signs of life before dropping four of their last six. The surprising thing about the Thunder is that they are the 4th ranked team in defensive rating a let Portland shoot 63% from the field in last nights 117-106 home loss. Look for them to clamp down on the Wolves here. Take OKLAHOMA CITY!  |

Detroit at Brooklyn 7:30 Nets (+) over Pistons- Brooklyn may only be 15-25 straight-up but for their 'backers' they are the most profitable team in the league. The Nets are and NBA leading 25-15 ATS including 12-1 ATS on the road. Detroit has been inconsistent because of the times they take games 'off' on the defensive end of the floor. Brooklyn is 6-0 ATS in their last six overall and 5-0 ATS in their last five home games while Detroit is 0-6 ATS in their last six meetings in Brooklyn and 2-9 ATS in the last 11 meetings overall. Take the NETS! |

Miami at Indiana 7:00 ET Heat (+) over Pacers- Miami has been one of the better road teams this season winning 11 of 19 and going 11-8 ATS but haven't won in Indianapolis since February 2012 a losing streak spanning 10 games. The Heat are 9-44 all-time at Indiana but are off a win at Toronto last last night which brought them their fifth straight win. The Pacers have won their last two after having lost their previous five and have split two games against the Heat in Miami. This time it's...MIAMI! |

Sacramento at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET Kings (+) over Lakers- For a team that doesn't want to play for their coach the Lakers ended a nine-game losing streak with a rousing 132-113 home victory over Atlanta on Sunday. That home was the first ATS win for the Lakers in their last seven tries. Sacramento is off a home loss to the Spurs as they closed their six-game home stand 2-4 and have lost 6-of-8. Despite the win Los Angeles is wearing down as their young nucleus hasn't had two consecutive days off since mid-December. The Kings have won 10 of their last 12 meetings and are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings in Los Angeles. Take SACRAMENTO!  |

Portland at Oklahoma City 8:00 ET Thunder (-) over Trailblazers- Oklahoma City who has lost three their last five after a 114-100 loss at Phoenix on Sunday returns home for one game in mist of a six game span. Portland who squeezed out a win over San Antonio Sunday will once again be without All-Star guard Damian Lillard who has missed six of their last eight games. Believe it or not the Thunder who has lost their last two home games are one of the better defensive teams in the NBA and will post a home win tonight as they are 4-1 ATS at home versus the Blazers.

The Raptors DeMar DeRozan has averaged 33.4 points during the Raptors win streak and now with his counterpart guard Kyle Lowry most likely on the shelf tonight will have to pick up the slack. The Heat have dropped five straight in Toronto bit have won their last two on the road. I'm looking for a close game tonight. Take the points. Take MIAMI! |

Cleveland at Minnesota 8:00 ET Timberwolves (+) over Cavaliers- There are two huge differences with these two clubs between last season and this season and it is about defense. Cleveland who was one of the best defensive teams in 2016-17 season and in now ranked 26thand this year the Timberwolves clamped down on defense and have held their last six opponents under 100 points. The Cavaliers are off a season high 131 points in their win (non-cover) at Orlando Saturday night and will the return of Isaiah Thomas their points should go up but their defense will suffer. That win for the Cavs was their first on the road after five straight losses away from home. Take MINNESOTA! |

Atlanta at L.A. Lakers 9:30 ET Hawks (+) over Lakers- It shouldn't be long, not too long before the Hawks pass the Lakers in wins and they can at least tie them tonight. Atlanta, the league's worst has just 10 wins on the season but the are closing in on the Lakers who remain with 11 wins after nine straight losses. Believe it or not the Hawks who were smashed by Portland Friday night for their second worse loss of the season were looking ahead to tonight where they feel the have a chance to win. They are right.

The Blazers like Sunday's nights at home going 5-0 ATS this season. Portland is off a trouncing of the league's weakest team Atlanta while San Antonio took down Phoenix Friday night without LaMarcus Aldridge. Damian Liillard is back and up to speed and will be the difference tonight. Portland is 19-14 against the Spurs including 10-5 at home. Take PORTLAND! |

Utah at Miami 3:30 ET Jazz (+) over Heat- With the return of Hassan Whiteside Miami has won their last three while Utah has dropped 12 of their last 15. With those kind of numbers surrounding this game I feel the odds-makers are giving the Jazz a fair shot a redeeming themselves for a 84-74 hone loss to the Heat in early December. Utah rookie guard Donovan Mitchell has shown his worth scoring 18.2 points and shooting 85% from the 'line.' The Heat must enjoy their Saturday night's in Miami as they re 0-4 ATS in their last four Sunday night home games. Take UTAH! |

Chicago at Indiana 7:00 ET Bulls (+) over Pacers- Now, I like 'our' side here but I am very leery of a favorite that has lost five straight games. Indiana has struggled on offense without Victor Oladipo who has missed the last four Pacers games and is averaging 24.9 points. Aside from Oladipo Pacers forward Bojan Bogdanovic is also questionable. Chicago is off a road win at Dallas Friday and is just 5-15 straight-up on the road but are a surprising 12-8 ATS. This one should come down to the final buzzer and the points might come into play. Take CHICAGO! |

Houston at Detroit 7:00 ET Pistons (+) over Rockets- Houston is off a disappointing performance against Golden State Thursday and will once again be without James Harden. His replacement Gerald Green has averaged 28 points in Harden's absence and with the return of Chris Paul the Rockets still have plenty of firer power. Detroit is coming off one of their worst beating of the season last night falling to Philadelphia 114-78 trailing by 30 points at the half. I'm sure that Detroit coach Stan Van Gundy will have is troupe ready to hustle the full 48 minutes (please no overtime) tonight and give a full effort. Take the PISTONS! |

Boston at Brooklyn 6:00 ET Nets (+) over Celtics- Boston was in a position to have a let-down last night after their emotional win over Cleveland and responded with their fifth straight win. I attribute that to Brad Stevens and his coaching ability to have his squad ready at every turn. Brooklyn is who much improved this season has played two tight games against the Celtics but lost them both by seven and three points and have lost their last seven meetings. The Nets look to win their third straight game for just the second time this season are doing it with defense as they have held opponents under 100 points ten times and are undefeated in those contests. Take BROOKLYN! |

Washington defeated Memphis at home 93-87 in mid December when the Grizzlies were without Tyreke Evans. Since his return they average 111.3 points and are 3-3 straight-up. Washington has lost four of five on the road and are just 3-8-1 ATS in their last 12 meetings in Memphis. Take the GRIZZLIES! |

This is the final meeting of the season between these two and Utah has already guaranteed itself at least a split of the series and has a history of giving Denver fits as the Nuggets are 13-5 ATS in the last 18 meetings. In this one the Jazz will need major production out of Rudy Gobert and rookie Donovan Mitchell and they get it. Take UTAH! |

The Celtics have dominated Minnesota winning 11 straight at home as the Wolves haven't won in Beantown since March of 2005. This game is being played despite blizzard warnings that cancelled the Bruins NHL game yesterday but Minnesota came to town early and will be ready. Boston off that emotional victory over the Cavaliers will get caught here as they are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 after a straight-up win. Take the TIMBERWOLVES! |

This should be a fairly even match as Los Angeles has is 6-0 ATS in their last six at home and the Thunder are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings including a 120-111 win this season.

The Warriors have won eight straight road games and with the return of Stephen Curry are once again dominate. Houston who has played much better when Chris Paul is in the lineup will now be without leading scorer James Harden who is out with a hamstring injury. Houston has lost 11 of the last 13 meetings including six straight in Houston. Teams have a way of adjusting and making up ground where star players are injured. Take HOUSTON! |

Golden State has already 'rocked' the Mavericks twice this season winning by a combined 45 points and now face a 'different' Mavs club.

The Cavaliers defeated Boston opening night when Gordon Hayward went down for the year five minutes into the Game and Boston responded like champions and are 30-10 on the season. The Cavaliers who have been a money-burner for their backers are just 12-24-1 ATS this season and are 1-8 ATS after a straight-up win. Boston on the other hand is 10-3-1 ATS following a loss.

San Antonio at Philadelphia 7:00 ET 76ers (+) over Spurs- Philadelphia has dropped 12 straight to the Spurs including six straight at home. The 76ers have won their last two and three-of-four and will most likely be without Joel Embiid who has a 'new' injury to contend with as he took a spill and sprained his right wrist. But the news isn't all bad as far as players health is concerned as prized rookie Markelle Fultz is going to make his debut. With all those winning streak you would think that San Antonio was a good bet, but they are 5-12 ATS in their lat 17 meetings in Philadelphia including and just 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings.

I mean here are the Atlanta Hawks winners of just three of 15 road games in a spot where they virtually have to win the game outright in order to win the wager. When I noticed that the home team has won the last five in this series with the Hawks 0-4 ATS in the last four meetings I really begin to wonder...what's going on? Despite owning the worst overall record in the NBA the Hawks have won three-of-four and win again tonight. Take ATLANTA! |

San Antonio on the other hand has just started a stretch with nine of 11 games on the road where they are 8-10 straight-up and 6-12 ATS. The Knicks just ended a four-game losing streak as Porzingis returned to the line-up and scored 30 points.

Philadelphia defeated the Nuggets at Denver last night (without Embiid) for only their third win in their last 13 games. The decision on Embiid's status is a game time decision but it won't matter here. Take PHOENIX! |

Los Angeles Lakers at Houston 7:05 ET Rockets (-) over Lakers- Strangely enough both these clubs are on five-game losing streaks but one of them will end tonight. Houston was sailing along on an 11-game win streak when they goy derailed in LA 122-116 by the Lakers in a game that Chris Paul was injured. The Rockets haven't won since even with the return of Paul last time out when they were completely out of sync.

Trouble for the Clippers now is that point guard Austin Rivers in down. Charlotte is off a huge win Friday night at Golden State and have not won two straight since Nov. 22. I question why the 'price' is so low and will trust the 'oddsmakers' on this one. Take CHARLOTTE! |

Philadelphia at Denver 9:00 ET Nuggets (-) over 76ers- One thing that is apparent about this much improved 76ers team is that 'we' must be aware of the status os Joel Embiid who is given days off (against his wishes) as Philadelphia is handling him with 'kid gloves' so to speak. He is the most impactful player in the NBA when on the floor and the 76ers are a different team when he plays. Denver has always had a strong home court advantage and are 12-3 straight-up as hosts while Philly is 2-8 ATS in their last 10. Take DENVER! |

The Cavaliers who are 11-23-1 ATS on the season have struggled against the Jazz and are 0-4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and are 1-6-1 ATS in Utah.

Both of Detroit's guards Avery Bradley and Reggie Jackson have been sidelined and the Pistons have had to make adjustments. The Spurs are also dealing with injuries but have managed to win six of their last seven and are 5-1 ATS against the Pistons. Still. Tonight the Pistons rally at home. Take DETROIT! |

Brooklyn at Miami 8:00 ET Nets (+) over Heat- There is a lot of 'stuff' surrounding this game that I will point out and I just hope it doesn't confuse 'us'. To start with Miami's center Hassan Whiteside in back in the starting lineup after missing 13-games. The Heat have gone 7-3 taking advantage of 10 games in the state of Florida and playing six team that are at least 10-games under .500. Although the Nets are just 3-13-1 ATS in their last 17 meetings and 1-3-1 ATS in Miami Brooklyn has been a 'go' when on the road. Here we have Miami just 8-8 straight-up and 4-11-1 ATS at home while the Nets are 5-12 straight-up on the road but, 10-7 ATS. Take BROOKLYN! |

Dallas at New Orleans 8:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Pelicans- I always consider playing 'against' any team that is coming off record setting performances and that means playing against New Orleans. Career and franchise records were set on the Pelicans last outing as Rajon Rondo who has 25 assists in their 128-112 win over Brooklyn Tuesday night. It was 2-1/2 years ago when Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle acquired Rondo from Boston where he fell out of favor before being shipped to Sacramento who sent him to Chicago who dumped his with him ending up with the Pelicans. Dallas has won their last two and are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings in New Orleans. Take DALLAS! |

Houston at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over Rockets- What a bunch of losers...the Rockets have dropped their last four going 0-4 ATS and the Wizards are off a 113-99 loss at Atlanta. The issue with Houston is that they struggle without Chris Paul in the line-up winning 15 of 16 when he plays and just 10 of 17 when he doesn't. Washington's All-Star guard John Wall called out a number of teammates after their loss to the Hawks and I believe they will more focused tonight. Take WASHINGTON! |

Philadelphia at Portland 10:30 ET Trailblazers (-) over 76ers- I have said it the entire season, Joel Embiid is most impactful in player in the NBA when he is on the floor. Portland found out what he was about in their first meeting when the 76ers won and 'covered' their fifth straight meeting in Philadelphia. The Blazers who have lost six straight home games will have the return of Damian Lillard who averages 26.2 points and will return from a mild hamstring strain. Look for adjustments to be made against Embiid and for the Blazers to win one at home. Take PORTLAND!  |

The Wolves have won five straight while the Bucks have dropped their last two including a 115-104 beating by the Bulls playing with a slowed down Antetokounmpo. Even though the Bucks have had their way of late in this series (7-1 ATS in last 8) it's the Timberwolves time. Take MINNESOTA! |

Injured players have part of the Magic downfall but did get the return of Jonathan Isaac Tuesday while the Piston lost a key clog with point guard Reggie Jackson who set a season high with 13 assists before his injury.

Toronto at Oklahoma City 8:00 ET Raptors (+) over Thunder- About two weeks ago I stated the I believed that the Thunder have turned the corner and they have put together five straight wins and 7-of-8. Toronto was rolling along with six straight wins and 'covers' before getting whacked in Dallas last night. The Raptors may have been looking ahead to this encounter and weren't completely focused. Toronto has had the best of it in this series going 4-0 ATS in their last six meetings in OKC and have won 12 of the past 14 meetings straight-up. Take TORONTO! |

Atlanta who is just 5-11 straight-up at home have haven't destroyed their backers splitting 16 decisions ATS. The Hawks attempt to win back-to-back games for the first time this season as they are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a straight-up win. I just think the Wizards after their impressive win over Boston will come out a little flat and the Hawks will take advantage (if the can). Tale ATLANTA! |

Boston started the season with two straight losses then went a tear winning 20 of their next 22, but in the last 21 days they have gone 5-6 as the injuries have mounted. Playing Charolette may help the Celtics as they have defeated the Hornets five straight times and nine of their last 10 meetings with the three year anniversary of their last win over the Celtics coming this month. Momentum may be the key here and with Charlotte off a 18-point come from behind win over Milwaukee the Hornets have it and the Celtics don't. Take CHARLOTTE!  |

12-26-17 | Raptors v. Mavs +6 | 93-98 | Win | 100 | 8 h 56 m | Show | |
Toronto at Dallas 7:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Raptors- Very quietly Toronto has established the best winning percentage in the East (23-8 74%) which is actually better then the conference leader Boston (27-10 73%). The Raptors have won six straight and 12 of its last 13 games and are 4-1 ATS in their last five trips to Dallas. With five losses in their last six games the Mavericks have just nine wins and are one win better then the league's worst team Atlanta, who has only eight wins, with the last one coming against Dallas. The Mavs have had trouble closing games losing 12 of 14 games decided by six points or less. Take DALLAS!  |

12-26-17 | Pacers +2 v. Pistons | Top | 83-107 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 50 m | Show |
Indiana at Detroit 7:00 ET Pacers (+) over Pistons- Two very evenly matched clubs face each other in Detroit where the Pistons have been an impressive 10-5 straight-up but are just 7-7-1 ATS. Indiana who is 8-7 on the road have proved to be profiteers away from home going 10-5 ATS. The Pacers have won seven of their last 10 while Detroit has won four of their last five and 2-of-3 meetings this season. Indiana is 7-2 ATS in their last nine meetings and the Pistons have dropped four straight ATS at home. Take INDIANA! |

12-25-17 | Wolves v. Lakers +5 | 121-104 | Loss | -107 | 26 h 17 m | Show | |
Minnesota at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET Lakers (+) over Timberwolves- I have to admit I always become intrigued when the Lakers are on broadcast and have noticed a few things about this NBA club. No. 1, the are very, very young, No. 2 they are very very talented and No. 3 they play no defense. Okay, but wow, I watched to see Lonzo Ball fail and was elated with his rocky start but the more I see the better chance he has at being a winner. I have no idea what will happen with his 'shot' but he can get better. Kyle Kuzma was no secret of 'us' (Utah) and with the emergence of Brandon Ingram (Duke) there is plenty of spring in their step. LA is 1-5 straight-up last six but 4-1 ATS in their last five. Wolves are 1-4 ATS in last five visits to Los Angeles. Take LAKERS! |
|||||||
12-25-17 | Rockets v. Thunder +3 | Top | 107-112 | Win | 100 | 24 h 51 m | Show |
Houston at Oklahoma City 8:00 ET Thunder (+) over Rockets- What a coincidence...the Rockets won 14 straight games with Chris Paul playing and have lost the last two with him sidelined. Let me think about this, I saw Houston meltdown in the final minutes with James Harden in charge and it was a complete cluster...Okay, I have no problem coming back with Oklahoma City (Megabucks Best Bet Winner) after Saturday's 103-89 romp at Utah. I said before the Jazz game that I think the Thunder of turned-the-corner. Four straight wins and the fifth comes here. Take OKLAHOMA CITY! |
|||||||
12-25-17 | Cavs +5 v. Warriors | 92-99 | Loss | -107 | 19 h 1 m | Show | |
Cleveland at Golden State 3:00 ET Warriors (-) over Cavaliers- Oh look what we have here, a rematch of the NBA Finals and we all know how that turned out. The NBA must be so proud but there are short-comings to this game. Golden State's just had their 11-game win streak (last eight without MVP guard Stephen Curry) ended Saturday with a home loss to Denver 96-81 where their shooting just went cold. Cleveland has been on a streak of their own winning 19 of the last 21 with LeBron James playing the best 'ball' of his career. I look for Durant, Thompson and Green to pick up the slack and run the older Cavaliers. Take GOLDEN STATE! |

12-23-17 | Blazers +3 v. Lakers | 95-92 | Win | 100 | 9 h 5 m | Show | |
Portland at L.A. Lakers 9:30 ET Trailblazers (+) over Lakers- The Lakers have been on a point spread tear winning their last four ATS and six of their last seven but there is a factor to consider. In every game the Lakers were underdogs and as a matter of fact they have been underdogs 10 straight games and have posted three outright wins in their last seven. The Trailblazers have lost their last six at home but are a surprising 9-6 on the road but will be without Damian Lillard who will be replaced by Shabazz Napier who will team up well with CJ McCollum. Port;and has dominated this series...just listen to these numbers. Portland has won the last 10 meetings straight-up, they are 21-8 ATS in the last 29 meetings in LA and they are 42-17 ATS in the last 59 meetings overall. Take PORTLAND! |
|||||||
12-23-17 | Thunder +1 v. Jazz | Top | 103-89 | Win | 100 | 8 h 31 m | Show |
Oklahoma City at Utah 8:00 ET Thunder (+) over Jazz- After failing to meet the 'experts' expectations playing under .500 the Thunder have won their last three and five of their last six. These two met on Wednesday with Oklahoma City laying a home hurt of the Jazz 107-79. Utah responded with a bounce-back win over San Antonio on Thursday. The Thunder may have turned the corner and are feeling better about themselves and run to a win here. Take OKLAHOMA CITY! |

12-23-17 | Nets v. Pacers -9.5 | 119-123 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 41 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at Indiana 7:00 ET Pacers (+) over Nets- Indiana gave themselves a boost of confidence with a win at Atlanta Wednesday a day after they blew a five-point lead to the Celtics in the final seconds at Bankers Life Fieldhouse and have now lost three straight at home. The Pacers should also feel good about playing the Nets who they defeated 140-131 in their season opener. Brooklyn is off an upset win against Washington last night cleaning the board with a 60-35 advantage. Indiana has won the last five meetings and they get to a half-dozen tonight. Take the PACERS!  |
|||||||
12-22-17 | Nuggets +1.5 v. Blazers | 102-85 | Win | 100 | 9 h 5 m | Show | |
Denver at Portland 10:00 ET Nuggets (+) over Trailblazers- Both these clubs enter this fray losing their last two with the Trailblazers struggling at home. Portland is the only team currently in a playoff spot with a losing home record (7-9) and haven't won at the Moda Center in over a month while losing their last five as hosts. It might help Portland that Denver has lost 10 of its last 13 on the road but the Blazers will be without guard Damian Lillard who has a hamstring injury last time out. The 'price' tells me that the Trailblazers are in trouble here. Take DENVER! |
|||||||
12-22-17 | Wizards v. Nets +5.5 | 84-119 | Win | 100 | 7 h 47 m | Show | |
Washington at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Nets (+) over Wizards- The last time the Nets won a game was against these same Wizards (103-99) who were playing without John Wall in Brooklyn on 10 days ago. The Wizards are off a 116-106 win over New Orleans but Wall is shooting just 35% since his return from his injury. Brooklyn has lost their last four but are looking to get Jahill Okafor some playing time as he has not seen any action the last two games. Look for the Nets to rebound here. Take BROOKLYN! |
|||||||
12-21-17 | Spurs v. Jazz +3.5 | 89-100 | Win | 100 | 9 h 27 m | Show | |
San Antonio at Utah 10:30 ET Jazz (+) over Spurs- Both these clubs have had a number of long team injuries to contend with as the Spurs have Tony Parker and Kawhi Leonard are back on a limited basis. The Spurs won without both of them last night at Portland 93-91 and come to Salt Lake City with a 3-game winning streak and winners of 11 of 14, as these clubs split four games last season. The Jazz are 11-5 both SU and ATS at home while San Antonio is 5-10 ATS on the road. In the second of back-to-back road games the Spurs fall tonight. Take UTAH! |
|||||||
12-21-17 | Celtics v. Knicks +3 | Top | 93-102 | Win | 100 | 7 h 18 m | Show |
Boston at New York 8:00 ET Knicks (+) over Celtics- The Celtics have cooled off a bit after starting 22-4 and have split their last eight games going 4-4 since but have dominated the Knicks at Madison Square Garden going 25-12 ATS. The Knicks have the most home wins of any clubs in the East with 14 and are 14-5 ATS as hosts. Kristaps Porzingis will be back in the line-up after missing the past two games (Knicks are 1-5 without him) and looks to gain some revenge for an early season 110-89 loss in Boston. Take NEW YORK! |
|||||||
12-21-17 | Raptors v. 76ers +3.5 | 114-109 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 12 m | Show | |
Toronto at Philadelphia 7:00 ET 76ers (+) over Raptors- Handicapping the 76ers should be an easy thing. When Joel Embiid plays they are a contender when he doesn't they are 1-6 straight-up and right now they have dropped their last three and seven of their last eight. Toronto on the other hand has won four in-a-row and 10 of their last 11 going 11-1 at home but just 10-7 on the road. Embiid with miss both of these back-to-back meetings with the Raptors hosting Philly on Sunday. Toronto has dominated this series winning 16 of the last 17 meetings but that was a different Sixers clubs. In a bounce-back the 76ers get the money. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

12-20-17 | Spurs v. Blazers -2.5 | 93-91 | Loss | -107 | 10 h 13 m | Show | |
San Antonio at Portland 10:30 ET Trailblazers (+) over Spurs- Okay, All-Star forward Kawhi Leonard has returned to the Spurs after a 27-game lay-off to start the season but has been limited to just 17 minutes a game. Portland is off a successful road trip (3-2) losing their final game 108-107 at Minnesota Monday when they didn't shoot a free throw in the second half. During the past 10 years the one team that has given San Antonio the most fits in the Trailblazers who are 19-13 straight-up over the Spurs and 10-4 st home. Take PORTLAND!  |
|||||||
12-20-17 | Pacers v. Hawks +4.5 | 105-95 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 48 m | Show | |
Indiana at Atlanta 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Pacers- Indiana is coming off a disheartening loss against the Celtics with their last minute meltdown as they blew a five-point lead with 31-seconds remaining Monday after coming back from a 19-point deficit. Atlanta meanwhile, who is 2-5 straight-up in their last seven games is 6-1 ATS as they are taking advantage of the odds-maker after a horrendous start. The Pacers should be a little flat coming off their collapse against Boston. Take ATLANTA! |
|||||||
12-20-17 | Raptors v. Hornets +2.5 | Top | 129-111 | Loss | -103 | 7 h 26 m | Show |
Toronto at Charlotte 7:00 ET Hornets (+) over Raptors- Home court advantage is stronger then ever in the NBA. Toronto tonight's road team in this match-up is 11-1 at home but just 9-7 both straight-up and ATS on the road. Charlotte is off a home win Monday night against the Knicks but that was just the Hornets second win in their last seven games as hosts. The Hornets have had their way as hosts against the Raptors as they are 9-3 ATS in the last 12 meetings in Charlotte including a 113-78 win last January the most recent head-to-head encounter. Add that the Toronto is just 9-23 ATS in their last 32 meetings overall. Take CHARLOTTE! |

12-19-17 | Cavs v. Bucks +2.5 | Top | 116-119 | Win | 100 | 10 h 5 m | Show |
Cleveland at Milwaukee 8:00 ET Bucks (+) over Cavaliers- Well, the Cavaliers are on another winning streak with five straight victories as LeBron James has posted 'triple-doubles' in four of those five wins while Milwaukee has dropped their last three straight-up. These two clubs have one thing in common and that is both have played poorly ATS at home where the Bucks are 9-5 straight-up but just 4-8-2 ATS as hosts and the Cavaliers are 2-14-1 ATS at home. But, the critical point here is that the Bucks were 'favored' in those contests and now they are an underdog. Take MILWAUKEE! |
|||||||
12-18-17 | 76ers v. Bulls +2.5 | 115-117 | Win | 100 | 8 h 59 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Chicago 8:00 ET Bulls (+) over 76ers- 'Break-up the Bulls' is the call after five straight wins following a 3-20 start has the Chicago youth movement headed in the right direction. Since returning to the squad after getting his face punched in by teammate Bobby Portis, Nikola Mirotic has been the glue hold this club together. Philadelphia is off a triple-overtime loss to Oklahoma City on Friday with Joel Embiid playing a career high 48 minutes and he will not even travel with the squad for tonight's contest. Take CHICAGO!  |

12-18-17 | Knicks v. Hornets -5.5 | 91-109 | Win | 100 | 7 h 8 m | Show | |
New York at Charlotte 7:00 ET Hornets (-) over Knicks- Streaks are a part of the NBA and here we have two clubs moving in opposite directions as New York has won their last four and Charlotte has dropped their last three. The Knicks have been winning but have incurred injuries to a pair of starters in Tim Hardaway and more importantly Kristaps Porzingis. The Hornets who opened the season 7-2 at home but have dropped 10 of their last 12 while New York has struggled on the road going 2-8 straight-up and 3-7 ATS. Take CHARLOTTE! |
