11-30-15 | Thunder v. Hawks +2.5 | Top | 100-106 | Win | 100 | 9 h 25 m | Show |
Oklahoma City at Atlanta 8:00 ET Hawks (+) over Thunder- Oklahoma City's Kevin Durant is back and he has put the NBA on notice averaging 30.3 points while shooting 58.5 percent in three games since returning. Atlanta returns home after losing two of three on the road including a 108-88 beat down by the Spurs on Saturday. The Hawks have been alternating wins and losses since November 9 the last time they had won two-in-a-row and if that trend continues they win tonight. These two clubs split last season's series 2-2 and tonight the birds fly. Take ATLANTA! |

11-29-15 | Pistons v. Nets +4.5 | 83-87 | Win | 100 | 8 h 39 m | Show | |
Detroit at Brooklyn 6:00 ET Nets (+) over Pistons- Detroit opened the season by winning their first three road games but have found the going tougher of late winning just 1-of-7 as they were pounded at Oklahoma City on Friday. The Pistons will play eight of their next 10 at home and will be looking to get out of New York as soon as possible. The Nets were bit by a last second hoop by LeBron James falling 90-88 last night in Cleveland in a game that they held the lead for most of the game. These two throw up plenty of bricks as the Pistons shoot 31% from 3-point range and the Nets 29.9%. Take advantage of the home court tonight as the Nets get the win! Take BROOKLYN! |
|||||||
11-29-15 | Celtics v. Magic +2 | 91-110 | Win | 100 | 8 h 37 m | Show | |
Boston at Orlando 6:00 ET Magic (+) over Celtics- At 8-8 the Orlando Magic have won 7-of-11 and look to go over .500 for the first time this season while the Celtics come in off two straight win including a 33-point drubbing of the Wizards Friday night. Brad Stevens is beginning to have a coaching impact with the Celtics as they continue to play tougher defense improving for 101.4 points per contest last season to 96.9 this year. But, the home team have been dominate in this series winning the past seven including all four games last season. Take ORLANDO! Â Â |
|||||||
11-29-15 | Suns +4.5 v. Raptors | Top | 107-102 | Win | 100 | 8 h 41 m | Show |
Phoenix at Toronto 6:00 ET Suns (+) over Raptors- These two clubs are playing a mirror image of each other as the Suns have lost four-in-a-row and the Raptors have won four-in a-row. Phoenix is starting their longest road trip of the season and understand that in order to turn it around must play better defense. The Suns have surrendered 119 points per contest over the last four including 135 and 22 3-pointers to Golden State. The Raptors came back from eight points down in the final three minutes last night to pull out a 84-82 win over Washington last night but are just 11-26 against the Suns including 6-12 in Toronto. Take PHOENIX! Â |
|||||||
11-28-15 | Lakers +8.5 v. Blazers | 96-108 | Loss | -107 | 12 h 50 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at Portland 10:00 ET Lakers (+) over Trailblazers- The 2-12 L.A. Lakers are off their worst loss of the NBA season as the Warriors destroyed the youthful club and handed them their fourth straight defeat. Kobe Bryant had his worst performance (among many poor outings) of the year going 1-of-14 from the floor and is now shooting 31.1 percent on the season including 19.5 percent from 3-point range. Portland has won six straight in this series but the Lakers have covered 3-of-4 in Portland where the Blazers are just 3-4. Portland handled the Lakers last Sunday in LA and now it's turn-about. Take LOS ANGELES! |
|||||||
11-28-15 | Nets +10 v. Cavs | 88-90 | Win | 100 | 9 h 22 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at Cleveland 7:30 ET Nets (+) over Cavaliers- The Cavaliers have a distinct advantage here and I don't just mean LeBron James as they are undefeated at home (8-0) while the Nets are a meek 0-9 on the road. Brooklyn has been resting since Wednesday and have covered five of their last seven games while the Cavaliers are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 including last night win at Charlotte. Look for Cleveland coach David Blatt to increase his bench minutes tonight and keep the Nets close. Take CLEVELAND! Â Â |
|||||||
11-28-15 | Raptors v. Wizards +3.5 | Top | 84-82 | Win | 100 | 9 h 52 m | Show |
Toronto at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over Raptors- After closing the year in such strong fashion last season the Washington Wizards are stumbling out of the gate this this around having dropped three straight and are just 6-7 on the campaign. Toronto has won their last three holding four straight opponents under 100 points but are playing their sixth game of seven on the road. The Raptors ended the Wizards season last year by sweeping them out of the playoffs something Washington wants redemption for. Off of two straight fourth quarter collapses (six points against Charlotte on Wednesday and a blowout in Boston last night) the Wizards look to rebound with a strong effort. Take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
11-27-15 | Hawks +3.5 v. Grizzlies | Top | 116-101 | Win | 100 | 9 h 51 m | Show |
Atlanta at Memphis 8:05 ET Hawks (+) over Grizzlies- After a 3-6 start the Grizzlies have rebounded by winning six of their last seven using their tough defense as the key as they have held their last four opponents under 100 points. The Hawks have yet to hit their stride after suffering a 99-95 loss at Minnesota Wednesday night as they remain inconsistent. Look for Atlanta to rebound off a loss to the Timblewolves and come out aggressive against the physical Grizzlies. The addition of Mario Chalmers will not help this weak shooting 3-point Memphis squad. Take the HAWKS! Â Â |
|||||||
11-27-15 | Heat v. Knicks +2 | 97-78 | Loss | -103 | 8 h 24 m | Show | |
Miami at New York Knicks 7:35 ET Knicks (+) over Heat- Turn-about-is-fair-play in NBA action as the New York Knicks host the Miami Heat at Madison Square Garden. Miami handled the Knicks easily Monday night as the Knicks lost two games in Florida (Orlando) and now return home. The Heat are off a road loss at Detroit where they scored a season low 81 points. New York's rookies sensation was given a leason by Hassan Whiteside in the Magic City but I expect a reversal of fortune tonight. Miami has won seven straight in this series but that ends tonight. Take the KNICKS! |
|||||||
11-27-15 | Cavs v. Hornets +4 | 95-90 | Loss | -104 | 8 h 60 m | Show | |
Cleveland at Charlotte 7:05 ET Hornets (+) over Cavaliers- After starting the season with three straight losses the Charlotte Hornets has won nine of the last 12 and the last four. Cleveland is 11-4 on the season with all four losses (3-4) coming on the road and are still battling the injury bug losing Matthew Dellavedova and center Timofey Mozgov. The Cavaliers swept the season series last year 4-0 but the Hornets are an impressive 7-1 at home and are worth taking with points. Take CHARLOTTE! |
|||||||
11-25-15 | Jazz +5 v. Clippers | 102-91 | Win | 100 | 11 h 22 m | Show | |
Utah at L.A. Clippers 10:30 ET Jazz (+) over Clippers- The Utah Jazz have lost 13 straight to the Clippers including seven straight in Los Angeles. But, these Clippers who won last night in Denver but are struggling having won just three of their last 10. The Jazz have dropped their last two but are third in the NBA in scoring defense allowing just 93.8 points per contest. Having played at Dallas and the Thunder with the return of Kevin Durant Utah has surrendered 100 points in each of their last two games. Look for a stronger defensive performance tonight as the Jazz cash in. Take UTAH! |
|||||||
11-25-15 | Hawks v. Wolves +3.5 | 95-99 | Win | 100 | 9 h 54 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Minnesota 8:00 ET Timberwolves (+) over Hawks- The Timberwolves finally broke through at home after starting the season with six straight losses be it against the winless 76ers but a win is a win. Atlanta is off a huge revenge win over the Celtics still have lost five-of-eight and last night but lost Kent Bazemore to an ankle injury. Look for Minnesota's rookie center Karl-Anthony Towns to bounce-back from his season lows in points (six) and rebounds (two) on Monday. Look for the T'wolves to make it two straight at home. Take MINNESOTA! |
|||||||
11-25-15 | Cavs v. Raptors +2.5 | 99-103 | Win | 100 | 8 h 25 m | Show | |
Cleveland at Toronto 7:30 ET Raptors (+) over Cavaliers- The Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James are out to show that the are the best in the East and have pounded their last two opponents while the Raptors closed their west coast trip with two strong wins the last of which was over the Clippers in Los Angeles. Toronto has had three days rest and relies on defense led by DeMarre Carroll as they shut down the Clippers Blake Griffin holding him to a season low nine points. At home its...the RAPTORS! |
|||||||
11-24-15 | Bulls v. Blazers +3 | Top | 93-88 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 14 m | Show |
Chicago at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Bulls- Portland has started to show some signs of life as they have won their last two while the Chicago Bulls continue to march on winning 8-of-12. The Trailblazers have had the best of the Bulls in Portland where Chicago hasn't won since February 2007 losing their last seven and 12 of 15 at the Rose Garden. Chicago point guard Derrick Rose will be back in the line-up after missing the last two contests with an ankle sprain, that will help because point-guard Aaron Brooks is expected to miss his second straight game. Take PORTLAND! |
|||||||
11-24-15 | Celtics +3.5 v. Hawks | 97-121 | Loss | -107 | 9 h 24 m | Show | |
Boston at Atlanta 8:00 ET Celtics (+) over Hawks- Atlanta is off a loss at Cleveland to the Cavaliers 109-97 Saturday and has lost four of their last five one of which was a 106-93 defeat at Boston 10 days ago. The young Celtics quickened the pace in that match-up throwing up 103 shoots to Atlanta's 76 attempts. Boston is coming off an embarrassing loss at Brooklyn on Sunday where they were out-rebounded 49-35. Look for a better effort off the boards and another win over last years' No.1 Eastern Conference seed. Take the CELTICS! |
|||||||
11-24-15 | Pacers +2 v. Wizards | 123-106 | Win | 100 | 8 h 13 m | Show | |
Indiana at Washington 7:00 ET Pacers (+) over Wizards- The Pacers are going for their third straight win in Washington tonight and have eight wins in their last 11. The Wizards after a slow start have won their last three and Bradley Beal has returned. Indiana is 3-3 on the road but an impressive 5-1 ATS as they are playing with passion and toughness something we have seen much of from the Wizards. The 'Wiz' are still beaming off their win over Detroit and will pay tonight. Take INDIANA! |
|||||||
11-23-15 | Thunder v. Jazz -3 | 111-89 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 43 m | Show | |
Oklahoma City at Utah 9:00 ET Jazz (-) over Thunder- The Utah defense will have a lot to contend with as Russell Westbrook enters Vivant Smart Home Arena as he has scored 30 points or more in four consecutive games (37 ave) and has been held under 20 just once this season. Utah who are have played only three home games this season are off a loss at Dallas and the Thunder off a win over Dallas are just 2-3 on the road and have lost their last three trips to Utah. The Jazz have had the weekend to rest while Oklahoma City played yesterday. Take the JAZZ! |

Detroit at Milwaukee 8:00 ET Bucks (+) over Pistons- Two clubs that are moving in different directions will meet tonight at Harris Bradley Center in Milwaukee as the Bucks who have dropped three in-a-row host the Detroit Pistons who have a winning record at 7-6 they were 1-12 last year at this time. This contest will be a match-up of centers as Andre Drummond has emerged for Detroit while the Pistons former center Greg Monroe will face his former team for the first time. Michael-Carter-Williams is back along with Jabari Parker. Milwaukee has won the last three meetings and will win again tonight. Take the BUCKS! |

11-21-15 | Bucks +5 v. Pacers | 86-123 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 22 m | Show | |
Milwaukee at Indiana 7:05 ET Bucks (+) over Pacers- After a slow start the Indiana Pacers once again look like a team with playoff potential. With Paul George's return after missing the best of two seasons he's help add confidence to a floundering franchise. Milwaukee has plenty of young talent and believe that they can compete with the addition of Jabari Parker (back from injury) and Giannis Antetokounmpo who scored a career high 33 points against the Cavaliers Thursday night. Although Indiana is 8-1 ATS in their last nine games the Bucks are 5-2 ATS I the last seven meetings. Take MILWAUKEE! |
|||||||
11-21-15 | Kings +2.5 v. Magic | 97-91 | Win | 100 | 7 h 28 m | Show | |
Milwaukee at Indiana 7:05 ET Bucks (+) over Pacers- After a slow start the Indiana Pacers once again look like a team with playoff potential.

11-20-15 | Raptors v. Lakers +7 | 102-91 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 19 m | Show | |
Toronto at L.A. Lakers 10:35 ET Lakers (+) over Raptors- How, can I possible be thinking of this side. As we predicted the Raptors have struggled on their current 'West Coast' trip dropping the first three of five games and they are playing their fourth game in six days. As far as Los Angeles is concerned Kobe Bryant has been receiving some rest and others now getting some playing time have emerged as Jordan Clarkson has shown some long ball shooting talent. With Bryant returning well rested the Lakers who have won just 2-of-9 can surprise Toronto here. Take the LAKERS! |
|||||||
11-20-15 | Suns v. Nuggets +2.5 | 114-107 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 54 m | Show | |
Phoenix at Denver 9:00 ET Nuggets (+) over Suns- These two met last Saturday in Phoenix and the Suns routed the Nuggets 105-81 and led by as many as 37 points and they have now won seven of the last eight meetings. Denver is 4-2 after a loss and 1-0 at home and I expect them to be totally focused against the guard heavy Suns. Denver's Emmanuel Mudiay will have to step-up here and improve his shot selection for the Nuggets to prevail. I believe he will tonight. Take DENVER! |
|||||||
11-20-15 | Jazz +2.5 v. Mavs | Top | 93-102 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 29 m | Show |
Utah at Dallas 8:35 ET Jazz (+) over Mavericks- Truly and interesting 'number' posted on the match-up when you consider the history of these two combatants. Dallas has won nine straight over Utah and 23 of the past 26 home meetings with the last Jazz win coming in January 2010. The Mavericks have won their last five coming back from 18-points down Wednesday in Boston to complete a three-game road trip sweep. So with all these factors showing us how dominate the Mavericks are why has this 'number' opened under a three-point field goal? I will always believe that 'Vegas' knows more then we do and they know something here. Take UTAH! |
|||||||
11-19-15 | Bucks v. Cavs -9.5 | 100-115 | Win | 100 | 11 h 37 m | Show | |
Milwaukee at Cleveland 8:00 ET Cavaliers (-) over Bucks- The Cavaliers have dropped their last two contests one of which was an overtime loss at Milwaukee 108-105. LeBron James has called-out his club telling them that they haven't won anything yet and they need to increase their intensity. The Bucks forced Cleveland into 20 turnovers in their win Saturday including seven by LeBron who has scored 30 or more points in four straight games. Kevin Love's play has been better this season and the Cavs are 5-0 at home. Take CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
11-18-15 | Raptors v. Jazz -4 | Top | 89-93 | Push | 0 | 11 h 1 m | Show |
Toronto at Utah 9:00 ET Utes (-) over Raptors- The Toronto Raptors have dropped their first two of their current road trip and five-of-seven since their 5-0 start. Utah won their final game of their road trip at Atlanta Sunday and should be well rested for the Raptors who are off their hard fought 115-110 loss to Golden State last night. Considering Toronto has won the last four meetings by an average margin of 19 points this is a bad spot for them. The return of center Rudy Gobert will aid the Jazz as he has three of more blocked shots in seven of the eight games that he has played. Take UTAH! |
|||||||
11-18-15 | Blazers v. Rockets -7 | 103-108 | Loss | -103 | 10 h 6 m | Show | |
Portland at Houston 8:00 ET Rockets (-) over Trailblazers- The new make-up of the Portland Trailblazers has all their fire-power coming from their back court with Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum but unlike the Warriors who rely on their back-court the Blazers just don't play the same kind of defense. Houston entering this contest in a four-game losing streak while Portland is in the mist of a six-game losing skid. This is the final game of a four-game road trip for Portland and they have lost four-of-six by 12 points or more. The Rockets have won 11 of the last 14 meetings at home and will rebound from their humiliating home loss (111-95) to the Celtics their last time out. Take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
11-18-15 | Kings +3.5 v. Hawks | 97-103 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 3 m | Show | |
Sacramento at Atlanta 8:00 ET Kings (+) over Hawks- A week ago Sacramento was in the mist of a five-game losing streak and the team was feuding with coach George Karl. After an airing-it-out meetings and the return of DeMarcus Cousins the Kings have now won three-in-a-row. Atlanta No.1 seed in the East last season opened by winning eight of their first 10 but have dropped their last three including a loss last night in Brooklyn to the lowly Nets. I don't know if I'm going to the well once too often playing against the Hawks but until they turn it around I'll play against them. The 'number' tell me the Kings have a legitimate shot. Take SACRAMENTO! |
|||||||
11-17-15 | Hawks v. Nets +4 | 88-90 | Win | 100 | 10 h 41 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Nets (+) over Hawks- The Brooklyn Nets have managed to win their first game on their recent four-game road trip but have dropped their last two (great efforts) to Sacramento and Golden State. Atlanta the No.1 team in the East last season has been struggling although the are 8-4 and have a convincing 101-87 win over the Nets. In that contest Brooklyn hung tough until late in the fourth quarter and then the Hawks experience took over in the final six minutes. This time around the Nets play a complete game to the final buzzer at home. Take BROOKLYN! |
|||||||
11-17-15 | Cavs v. Pistons +5.5 | Top | 99-104 | Win | 100 | 10 h 36 m | Show |
Cleveland at Detroit 7:30 ET Pistons (+) over Cavaliers- If there ever was or is a 'home court' advantage the Detroit Pistons are a prime example of that axiom. They 4-1 before they embarked on a six-game 10 day West Coast trip and have dropped their last four including a loss to the lowly Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. Cleveland led by LeBron James are 8-2 but just 3-7 ATS and still are not completely healthy. The Pistons are 5-0 ATS when playing .500 or better teams at home and the Cavaliers are 0-7 ATS in their last seven. Take DETROIT! |
|||||||
11-17-15 | Bucks +4.5 v. Wizards | 86-115 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 22 m | Show | |
Milwaukee at Washington 7:00 ET Bucks (+) over Wizards- The surprising Milwaukee Bucks have won five of their last seven and are coming off an double-overtime win over the Cavaliers on Saturday, while the Wizards snapped a three-game losing streak with a win over Orlando the same night. These two met in Milwaukee to open the season a 118-113 win by the Wizards while the Bucks were injured. Jabari Parker has returned and he helps a well balanced club that has five player averaging 12.6 points or better. Washington's Bradley Beal is questionable and even if he plays his effectiveness is in doubt. Take the BUCKS! |
|||||||
11-16-15 | Celtics +5 v. Rockets | 111-95 | Win | 100 | 10 h 48 m | Show | |
Boston at Houston 8:05 ET Celtics (+) over Rockets- The Houston Rockets are off to a slow start (4-6) and it is primarily because of the inconsistent play of James Harden. They have dropped their last three and are playing a 'red-hot' Celtics club who has won four of their last five including a 100-85 win over the Durant-less Thunder last night. With Harden suffering from the 'Kardashian jinx' he's shooting just 37.1 percent from the field and I don't see a quick fix for the struggling Rockets. Houston has won four straight in this series and seven of the last nine meetings but tonight their troubles continue. Take BOSTON! |
|||||||
11-16-15 | Pacers +5 v. Bulls | Top | 95-96 | Win | 100 | 10 h 52 m | Show |
Indiana at Chicago 8:05 ET Pacers (+) over Bulls- The Indiana Pacers were a horror show when the season opened and they are getting better day-by-day as they are now 6-4 on the season. The Chicago Bulls are still led by Derrick 'The Hoax) Rose and at 6-3 despite having more turnovers then assists. The Bulls are now playing the same tough defense under Fred Hoilberg that they had in the past. The Pacers Paul George has returned and has scored 25 points or more in six straight games the last three of which Indiana has won. Rose is shooting just 5.6 percent from three point range. (That's right 5.6%) Take the PACERS! Â |

11-15-15 | Raptors v. Kings +3 | Top | 101-107 | Win | 100 | 12 h 40 m | Show |
Toronto at Sacramento 9:00 ET Kings (+) over Raptors- Break-up the Kings! DeMarcus Cousins and George Karl are both still with Sacramento and they have won two straight that TWO as in one-two. Toronto had a small hiccup losing two straight but have bounced back with wins over Philadelphia and New Orleans. This is the first of a five-game West Coast road trip for the Raptors while the Kings have been in the West for a week. This is Toronto's seventh road game of 11 played and the Kings are ready. Take SACRAMENTO! |

11-15-15 | Celtics +6 v. Thunder | 100-85 | Win | 100 | 10 h 47 m | Show | |
Boston at Oklahoma City 7:00 ET Celtics (+) over Thunder- The Celtics have been good to 'us' so far this season winning OUTRIGHT against Atlanta on Friday and now they visit Oklahoma City who will be without Kevin Durant but they have Russell Westbrook who is intent on showing everyone that Durant isn't needed. Westbrook recorded another triple-double last time against out Philadelphia and had it in the middle of the 3rd quarter. A pair of former college coaches go to work as Brad Stevens leads Boston and Billy Donovan is struggling as the Thunder lead the NBA in Turnovers and have allowed more free throws then they have taken. Tonight's it's the CELTICS! Â |

11-15-15 | Jazz +5.5 v. Hawks | 97-96 | Win | 100 | 9 h 50 m | Show | |
Utah at Atlanta 6:00 ET Jazz (+) over Hawks- The NBA road is a tough one at least and the Utah Jazz are finding their trip to the East to be reformable. They have dropped their first three of a four game trip (two covers) and now face the conferences winningest team the Atlanta Hawks. Part of the problem is their defense which held opponents to 84 points per game in their first six has allowed 104 per game on this trip. After starting 8-1 the Hawks have dropped their last two and now are dealing with an injury to one of their key players in Jeff Teague. Utah will have the services of Rudy Gobert and Rodney Hood who were both missing last time out. Take the JAZZ! Â |

11-14-15 | Pistons +3.5 v. Clippers | 96-101 | Loss | -102 | 7 h 13 m | Show | |
Detroit at L.A. Clippers 3:35 ET Pistons (+) over Clippers- The Clippers have dominated this series by winning the last eight meetings by an average of 14.4 points but that was a different Detroit club. The Pistons are 5-3 after opening the 2014 campaign 2-17 and have one of the most dominating players in the NBA with Andre Drummon who has a double-double in every game this season and is averaging 18.8 points and a league leading 19.3 rebounds. He will counter Blake Griffin while Reggie Jackson will take advantage of Chris Paul's aliments. This time the trend ends. Take DETROIT! |

Portland at Memphis 8:05 ET Grizzlies (-) over Trailblazers- Memphis has combined a five-game road trip and return home game agains Golden State into a four-game losing streak one of which was a loss at Portland 115-96 who have now lost the next three of their own. Portland has a number of new faces that are having trouble with a lack of chemistry and they are 0-5-1 ATS in their last six in Memphis and 3-11-1 ATS in their last 15 meetings. The Grizzlies are in need of a win and get it here. Take MEMPHIS! Â Â |

Cleveland at New York Knicks 7:35 ET Knicks (+) over Cavaliers- After an opening night defeat to the Bulls the Cavaliers have reeled off seven straight wins including a 96-86 win in Cleveland over the Knicks. New York is a much improved clubs from last years version with the addition of 7-foot -inch 19 year old Kristaps Porzingis who has had four double-doubles in the last six games. LeBron James has been clutch down the stretch of games as the Cavs are with Kyrie Irving, Iman Shumpart and J.R. Smith (questionable). With Aaron Afflalo back in action the Knicks have more depth and balance. Take NEW YORK! |

The Hawks are off three home games the last a win over New Orleans while the Celtics are playing their second straight as hosts. Boston goes deeper then the Hawks and will be primed for the Friday night contest at the TD Garden. Take the CELTICS! |

L.A. Clippers at Phoenix 10:30 ET Suns (+) over Clippers- The Clippers are off last night's 118-108 loss in Dallas where the Mavericks deemed that contest 'DeAndre Jordangate' and it was just too much for Los Angeles to overcome. Now, they travel to Phoenix where they have defeated the Suns four straight time and eight straight times in the series. The Suns had won 11 of 12 home games against the Clippers prior to the current four-game losing streak. Chris Paul is hurting (2-of-11 shooting last night) and the Suns have a back court with Eric Bledsoe and Brandon Knight to take advantage. Take PHOENIX! |

L.A. Clippers at Dallas 8:00 ET Mavericks (+) Clippers- The first real revenge game of the season will be played tonight in Dallas where the Mavericks host the Clippers and this one's all about L.A.'s center DeAndre Jordan and Mavericks owner Mark Cuban. Just to remind you Jordan committed to a free-agent signing with Dallas and then backed-out causing Cuban to go nuts. Last night 'we' posted the Pelicans over the Mavs because of tonight's match-up so it's DALLAS! Â Â |

Golden State at Memphis 8:00 ET Grizzlies (+) over Warriors- Golden State has yet in to incur a loss and one of their wins during their 8-0 start was a 119-69 romp over Memphis on November 2. That was the worst loss in franchise history for the Grizzlies who are off to a slow start. Memphis returns home for their first game after a 5-game road trip (1-4) and open with the defending Champions. Memphis suffered another defeat Monday at the hands of the Clippers 94-92 in a game that the Grizzlies felt they returned to their formidable style of basketball. Look for Memphis to pick-up the defensive pressure tonight and redeem themselves. Take the GRIZZLIES! |

Oklahoma City at Washington 7:05 ET Wizards (+) over Thunder- The Wizards had a four-point lead enter the final quarter last time out against Atlanta and then folded in the fourth getting outscored 31-11. Oklahoma City suffered three straight loss then got right by pounding Phoenix 124-103 at home on Sunday. This season has a long way to go but Washington who has one of the best back court combo's in the NBA with John Wall and Bradley Beal leads the NBA in turnovers with Wall the worst offender averaging five per contest. Beal who left Saturday's loss to injury must play here for the Wizards to keep up with Russell Westbrook. Take WASHINGTON! |

The Utah Jazz have won their last two holding their last two opponents to 81.5 points per game. Defense is the key for the Jazz who lead the NBA in scoring defense and held three team to under 80 points in their six games thus far. This is the first game in a road trip for Utah and the final contest in a four-game home stand for Cleveland. With defense the key the Jazz get it done here. Take UTAH! |

The Clippers who opened the season with four straight wins have dropped their last two to Golden State and Houston by a total of eight points.

Detroit at Portland 9:00 ET Pistons (+) over Trailblazers- Portland has won three straight with a huge transition from last year's squad as four impact players are gone. Detroit who started last season 2-17 is already 4-2 as Andre Drummond has become a force at both ends of the floor as he is averaging 18.6 points and 19 rebounds per game. The Blazers have won five straight in this series but that streak is about to end tonight. With such a small number posted out of Vegas it tells me the Pistons are the side tonight. Take DETROIT! |

The 76ers are 0-5 straight-up but have played well enough to go 3-2 ATS while the Magic who are 2-4 straight-up are 6-0 ATS. Philadelphia who started last season 0-17 have 12 player with two years experience or less but rookie Jahil Okafor has scored at least 18 points in four of his first five games.

Atlanta at New Orleans 8:05 ET Pelicans (+) over Hawks- The New Orleans Pelicans and their 'new' coach Alvin Gentry are still seeking their first win of the season as they host last year's No. 1 seed in the East in Atlanta. The hawks are 5-1 and have done it with defense going 3-0 on the road and holding opponents to 95 points per contest. Anthony Davis has had a slow start and was just 3-of-12 shooting while scoring only 14 points last time out. The Pelicans have been slowed by injuries but will fight through it all tonight.

The clubs have mirror records of each other as Washington enters this fray 3-1 and Boston is 0-3. Beal who has scored 24 or more points in each of the Wizards four games struggled in Boston last season going 4-of-18 from the floor while the Celtics have struggled getting their big men untracked.

Milwaukee struggled in their win over Philadelphia last time out winning 91-87 as Jabari Parker made his season debut with two points on 1-for-6 shooting. The Bucks won all four meetings last season and with Carmelo Anthony still not shooting straight (36.5%) they will revenge their opening loss here. Take MILWAUKEE! Â Â |

Charlotte at Dallas 8:30 ET Hornets (+) over Mavericks- The Hornets delivered to us another 'Guaranteed' winner 130-106 over the Bulls on Tuesday and I feel that we should stay with the 'hot hand.' Charlotte had a strong pre-season holding foes to under 90 points per contest and after their 0-3 start are back to hard nosed efforts. The Hornets are young, eager and more confident with malcontent Lance Stephenson out of the picture. Take CHARLOTTE! |

Sacramento at Phoenix 9:00 ET Suns (-) over Kings- Sacramento will be without All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins for a few days after straining his right Achilles tendon in Saturday's loss to the L.A. Clippers and will difficulty handling Suns center Tyson Chandler who has 14 points and 17 rebounds in a loss to the Clippers. Last night the Kings were playing Memphis a 103-89 loss. Meanwhile the Suns are 6-2 ATS in their last eight games versus a team with a losing straight-up record and with Eric Bledsoe is averaging 21 points it will be just too much for the Kings to deal with. The Kings were 6-18 without Cousins last season and are already 0-1 this year. Take PHOENIX! Â |

Atlanta has won four-in-a-row but is 0-2 ATS at home this season and 0-5 ATS at home in their last five while the Nets are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games against a team with a winning record above 60%. The Nets will have to do it with defense and the Hawks will have to sleepwalk tonight. Take BROOKLYN! Â |

San Antonio at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over Spurs- After dropping their season opener the Spurs have won three straight including the first two of their three-game road trip as they play the back end final game tonight in Washington. San Antonio used the shut down defense of Kawhi Leonard to hold New York's Carmelo Anthony to 4-for-17 shooting. The Wizards have been off since their first loss on Saturday to the Knicks 117-110. With San Antonio defeating the team that Washington lost to I expect a turn around here with the home team getting a the win. Take the WIZARDS! |

Orlando at New Orleans 8:00 ET Magic (+) over Pelicans- A pair of 0-3 clubs square off in New Orleans where the Pelicans who are also 0-3 ATS host Orlando who is 3-0 ATS. The home club made the playoffs last season and fired their coach for Alvin Gentry and it was believed that he would guide Anthony Davis to top-player status. Davis has filled his billing but the supporting cast has yet to deliver. Some things to consider in that New Orleans is 2-6 ATS in their last eight against teams with a losing record and the Magic are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 meetings against the West. Take ORLANDO! |

11-03-15 | Pacers +5.5 v. Pistons | 94-82 | Win | 100 | 10 h 49 m | Show | |
Indiana at Detroit 7:30 ET Pacers (+) over Pistons- These teams have mirror records of each other as Indiana is 0-3 and Detroit is 3-0 both straight-up and against the points. One thing we know about the NBA season is that point spread records have a tendency to even out because of the adjustment made by the book-makers. The pacers have gone to a smaller quicker lineup and they haven't completely adjusted to the 'new' style as of yet. There will as contrast in styles here as the Pistons use a bigger more powerful lineup led by Andre Drummond averaging 16.3 rebounds a game. These two should come closer together tonight. Take INDIANA! |

Chicago at Charlotte 7:05 ET Hornets (+) over Bulls- When looking at match-ups often times it is best to disregard a teams straight-up record and look to how hey are doing against the points because that is what pays off in the long run. Right now the 3-1 Bulls are 1-3 ATS while the 0-3 Hornets are 1-1-1 ATS and still searching for their first win of the season. Chicago has not been good against the NBA Southeast as they are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 while Charlotte is 10-4 ATS against teams with a winning percentage above .600. In need of their initial win of the season the Hornets get it here. Take CHARLOTTE! Â |

Oklahoma City at Houston 8:00 ET Rockets (+) over Thunder- Many predicted that the Houston Rockets were 'the' team to dethrone Golden State in the West but they have opened the season 0-3 and have yet to even 'cover' a game for their backers. Oklahoma City is 3-0 with a healthy Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook has been his usual outstanding self. The biggest problem for the Rockets has been the play of James Harden who is the curse of dating a Kardashian shoot blanks (12-of-54 from the field) having yet to shoot 30% in a game. Houston has had the Thunders' number winning the last four meetings. Things change but the beat goes on here...take HOUSTON! |

Cleveland who lost in the NBA Finals last season has added depth to their squad and once again are favored to win the East. Philadelphia (0-2) still has young talent and one of those talented players is Jahlil Okafor who is averaging 18 points in his first two starts. Nerlens Noel is averaging both 11 points and rebounds for the 76ers as they get better every time out. Take the generous points. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

Both clubs are 1-1 and have make impact rooster changes in the off-season. The Suns added center Tyson Chandler who had 15 points and 13 rebounds last night and Brandon Knight who is sharing the ball handling duties with Eric Bledsoe.

The Warriors (2-0) won the opener at home 110-95 and followed that with a 112-92 win at Houston last night while the Pelicans (0-2) have yet to post a victory. Part of the problem for last last's playoff Pelicans is adjusting to new coach Alvin Gentry's offense but five injured players doesn't help. Still, New Orleans has Anthony Davis and he looks to respond from his worst career start in the opener where he was 4-for-20 from the field. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

Golden State at Houston 9:35 ET Rockets (+) over Warriors- The defending NBA Champion Golden State Warriors opened their season in fine fashion as they out-ran New Orleans for an easy opening night 111-95 route. Last season the Warriors dominated the Rockets sweeping the season season 4-0 and now show up in Houston as a meager favorite after Houston's opening game loss without the suspended Dwight Howard. Coming off a 105-85 loss to the Denver Nuggets I expect the Rockets to come out big after suffereing their home loss as a 10-point favorite. Take HOUSTON! |

L.A.

The Clippers filled what they believe were some hole with the addition of Paul Pierce, Josh Smith and Lance Stephenson. The Clips may come to find that the addition of Stephenson might be more of a liability if his attitude doesn't change. The Kings have added Rajon Rondo who has had attitude problems of his own to side up with DeMarcus Cousins and Rudy Gay. Cousins who clashed with coach George Karl saying that they discussed their differences like men and all is well. Time will tell but tonight 'can't we all just get along.' Take the KINGS! |

James has missed the last two weeks of preseason games due to lower-back issues and that might have him ready but injuries still linger among his supporting cast. Kyrie Irving is still out as is Iman Shumpert and Kevin Love is back but, the question is how effective will he be. Chicago's Derek Rose says that he is ready to play and the Bulls remain solid in the middle with Pau Gasol and Joakim Noah. Take the BULLS! Â Â Â |

Golden State at Cleveland 9:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Warriors- There are a number of reasons that I like Cleveland here in Game 6 including the fact that they have the 'Best Player in the World.' As series go this one has yet to have a favorite win and not 'cover' the number and I could see that happening here Tuesday night. It has become obvious that LeBron James can't do it alone as Golden State just has too many weapons and the Cavaliers too few. Here a mind boggling stat that tells the story of Cleveland's lack of talent aside from James as he has 47 assists and only 15 turnovers in the Finals five games and the rest of his entire team combined have only 35 assists and 45 turnovers. The home court advantage will be huge as the supporting cast for James comes through with enough to get the money here. Take CLEVELAND! Â Â |

Cleveland at Golden State 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Warriors- Well, we all finally saw the game that we all were expecting in Game 4 where Golden State just dominated after Cleveland's initial 7-0 start as the Cavaliers showed how inept they are offensively. We saw that LeBron is actually human and he does need help somewhere down the line. The Cavs inside game showed some life but the shooting guards aside from James were just 6-of-37 and that is too much for anyone to overcome. This is a difficult side to play after what we all witnessed as the Cavaliers look just so bad and almost unplayable...almost. One thing about professional sports usually after a team is embarrassed the way Cleveland was Thursday night the respond like pro's and give a huge effort. I expect James to be better and the rest of the Cavaliers to suck it up. Take CLEVELAND! |

Golden State at Cleveland 9:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Warriors- I keep hearing the same thing over and over again but I keep seeing something different over and over again. To start with I hear from all the pundits over and over again that Golden State will win this series and that the Cavaliers can't win. What I am seeing a the Cavaliers dominating the play as the Warriors struggle to get open shots. Until our boy Matthew Dellavedova need fluids in the final quarter in Game 3 Steph Curry was lost and the rest of his teammates didn't look much better. Lebron James is doing thing no other basketball player has EVER done as he is carrying this team offensively. (Michael Jordan never had 19 rebounds in a playoff game) Cleveland is 6-2 ATS in their last eight games as the competition gets tougher and on of those ATS losses was a fluke overtime loss while the Warriors are 2-7 ATS in their last nine games against the NBA Central. Take CLEVELAND! Â Â |

Golden State at Cleveland 9:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Warriors- So, now that Cleveland broke though and Stephen Curry had once of his first shooting night of his career the 'experts' are looking for hime to bounce-back with a big game and are down-playing Matthew Dellavedova's defense. Remember that Curry wasn't so spectacular in Game 1 either. I remember a playoff series years ago when Larry Bird was never able to 'right' himself for an entire seven game series and the Celtics went down in flames and little credit was given to his defender then. I saw it Sunday I saw this guy get intro Curry's head to the point that he was just 2-of-10 on uncontested shots. Now, I expect him to be better next time out but still not get to the form we witnessed earlier in the playoffs. LeBron will once again be denominate and his surrounding cast will improve at home. Take CLEVELAND! |

Cleveland at Golden State 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Warriors- I very rarely say 'you had the right side' after a loss but I thought that I had made a great call on the Cavaliers in Game 1 and came away with an overtime eight-point loss. Truly, if you watched that contest you would think that Cleveland was the 'right side' but the just didn't win and even 'cover' for that matter. Sickening, if you bet the Cavaliers and 'we' did. Now, will Kyrie Irving out for the remainder of the playoffs just how much more can we expect out of LeBron James. I mean really 44 points and a slew of rebounds and assists and steals as well were just not enough. This only means that the Cavaliers will just have to play tougher defense and make more shots. The points are generous and rising. Take CLEVELAND! Â |

Cleveland at Golden State 9:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Warriors- For seven days now all my 'friends' in the handicapping industry have been telling me that the money has been coming in on the Cavaliers and LeBron James and this may be true but my gut and instincts tell me something different. First, let me start with the opening line of 5½ which I felt was much too short. My number was 6½ and I expected it to go higher as the week wore on. To my surprise the early money was on Cleveland but I ask just how much? Now, as we approach game time money is starting to show for Golden State, after all they have lost just three games at home the entire season (46-3) and will have the MVP and a healthy Klay Thompson. The Cavaliers are hurting with Kevin Love (out) and Kyrie Irving hobbled so I don't see how the 'public' will be on Cleveland even with LeBron rested. I believe by game time that the late money will move toward the Warriors and I don't want to be there. It is just Game 1 of the Finals with plenty of time left for both clubs to recover if handed an opening series loss. I just see the Cavs keeping it close. Take CLEVELAND! |

Houston at Golden State 9:00 ET Warriors (-) over Rockets- The Warriors nation certainly got the scare of the season when Stephen Curry when flying over the top and landed on his head in Game 4 in Houston on Monday night but his return settled their weary hearts. Off their humiliating Game 3 loss the Rockets picked themselves off the floor and game out strong to defeat Golden State 128-115 a contests that saw the Warriors come out flat missing their first nine shots while the Rockets started 9-of-11. With Curry sidelined Klay Thompson finally caught fire and made six 3-pointers scoring a series high 24 points. Golden State is 45-3 straight-up at home and will closed out this series easily.

With LeBron James missing his first 10 shots the Hawks built a lead and had control most of Game 3 until Al Horford lost his composure and Atlanta eventually wilted as James scored 37 points his third straight game over 30 and had a triple double. With Kyrie Irving on the side line and Kevin Love gone for the rest of the playoffs James played the point and had 13 assists and has taken over the games. James is on his way to his fifth straight conference final. Take the CAVALIERS! |

Golden State at Houston 9:00 ET Rockets (+) over Warriors- This is what the Rockets do, they get blown out by 25 of more points (35 last time out) and then they recover for a game or two or three if they are up against the Clippers. But, one game will be about it for them here. There is plenty of quit or dog in Houston but even they will respond after their performance on Saturday. Golden State will have difficulty approaching this game without a smirk on their faces as they have now beaten the Rockets seven straight times this season and know even if Houston pulls off a win here that the series will end next time out. Look for the Rockets to pull out all stops and should actually win this game outright but I'd take the points for sure. Take HOUSTON! Â |

Atlanta at Cleveland 8:30 ET Hawks (+) over Cavaliers- As if losing the first two playoff games at home in the conference final wasn't bad enough the Atlanta Hawks received more bad news as their best outside shooter the NBA's three-point percentage leader Kyle Korver will be gone for the remainder of the playoffs which won't be long of the Cavaliers have anything to do with it. Cleveland won easily without Kyrie Irving in Game 2 and with a 2-0 series lead may be rested once again as the Cavaliers with LeBron James have enough firepower to win here. Korver isn't the only Hawks banged-up player as Carroll and Milsap are hurting. Still, this is the playoffs and I expect a big enough effort out of Atlanta to keep this one within the 'number.' Take the HAWKS! Â |

Houston at Golden State 9:00 ET Warriors over Rockets- The Warriors found themselves trailing Houston by 16 points early in Game 1 before they mounded a comeback that saw them take the lead within seven minutes. Stephen Curry showed why he is the MVP and the Rockets dropped their fifth straight to Golden State this season. Although this was the closest game of the five losses this season Houston may have lost Dwight Howard for this one and even if he plays his effectiveness can be in doubt. The Warriors are 44-3 straight-up at home and are 19-7-2 ATS at home against a team with a winning road record. Take GOLDEN STATE! Â Â |

Houston at Golden State 9:00 ET Warriors (-) over Rockets- The improbable comeback by the Houston Rockets won't go without consequences as I can't imagine how they will be able to stop patting themselves on the back and get back to the emotional level needed to beat the Warriors at Golden State. The Warriors defeated Houston every meeting during the regular season and all wins were by double-digits. Golden State is 43-3 at home and are 19-6-2 76% ATS in their last 27 games at home against a team with a winning record and the Rockets are 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games. Take GOLDEN STATE! |

Golden State at Memphis 9:30 ET Grizzlies (+) over Warriors- This should be a tough one not only on the court but a tough one to call as it looks like Golden State has regained it's composure winning the last two matches easily by a combined 37 points. The Grizzlies scored a series low 78 points on Wednesday and hasn't scored 100 points yet in the series. With Tony Allen on the sidelines (hamstring pull) Stephen Curry took advantage and had six 3-pointers with six steals to boot. Allen will be back for this contest and the home court will give Memphis the boost they need to cover here. Take the GRIZZLIES! Â Â |

Atlanta at Washington 7:00 ET Hawks (+) over Wizards- The Washington Wizards were so busy taunting the Hawks in Game 5 that they neglected to finish the deal and blew an 11-point fourth quarter lead in their 82-21 loss in Atlanta on Wednesday. John Wall was a surprise performer for the Wiz but wasn't enough and they certainly are a greater threat when he is available but Paul Pierce suffered scoring a playoff low 11 points and continued to yap at Atlanta at every opportunity. The Hawks are waiting for a breakout game from Kyle Korver who had only three-points in Game 5 and is shooting 35 percent for the series. In an oddity the Hawks are 5-1 ATS in their last six on Friday's while Washington is just 1-7-1 ATS in their last nine Friday games. Take ATLANTA! |

Houston at L.A. Clippers 10:30 ET Clippers (-) over Rockets- 'We' have been right-on in this series posting winners left and right and I made my decision on this contest in the middle of the third period of the Rockets rout over Los Angeles the last time out in Houston. It was obvious during that 124-103 annihilation that the Clippers were just going through the motions until they returned home for Game 6 and this is Game six and they certainly don't want to return to Houston for a Game 7 on Sunday. The Rockets have lost nine of their last 10 in Los Angeles against the Clippers and won't fare much better here. Take the CLIPPERS! Â |

Cleveland at Chicago 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Bulls- I'm sure the return to the line-up by Marc Gasol will attract a lot of attention to Chicago as the Bulls are in a 'must' situation at home in Game 6 trailing 3-2. LeBron James even with a sprained ankle just plain took over in Cleveland's 106-101 win as he scores 38 points had 12 rebounds and six assists alone with no turnovers. Kyrie Irving who is also hurting like James with ankle issues broke out of his mini sump and posted 25 points of his own more then he has in the previous two games combined. When LeBron sets his mind to it the Cavaliers are difficult to beat and he is looking to end this series here. Take CLEVELAND! Â |

Washington at Atlanta 8:00 ET Hawks (-) over Wizards- The Washington Wizards have been a handful in the playoffs sweeping Toronto in four straight with covers and pushing the No.1 seed Hawks into a five game with the series even. The key factor for the Wizards in the availability of guard John Wall who in questionable with broken bones in his hand. Wall hasn't been able to practice any basketball activities and will be greatly missed once again. Washington is 5-0 both straight-up and against the points when he plays and they are just 1-2 when he doesn't. Bradley Beal and Paul Pierce have tried to pick-up the slack but it just isn't enough. Look for slumping sharp-shooter Kyle Korver to regain his form tonight. Take ATLANTA! |

L.A. Clippers at Houston 9:30 ET Rockets (+) over Clippers- After watching the Rockets get mauled by a total of 58 points in Los Angeles the past two games it would seem impossible for dishearten Houston to pull together and post a win in Game 5. Despite averaging 24.5 points per game James Harden has played a small roll for the Rockets in this series. The biggest problem is Dwight Howard who has been just dreadful fouling out of Game 4 with seven points and six rebounds. Returning home will mean a world of difference even if it;s just for one game. I fully expect the Rockets to show up and send this series back to LosAngeles or at the least cover the number. Take HOUSTON! |

Golden State at Memphis 9:30 ET Warriors (-) over Grizzlies- The question here that needs to be answered is 'Have the Warriors lost their mojo?' Shooters Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry have been hounded by Grizzlies defenders and shot a dismal 6-of-26 from 3-point range in Game 3 and Curry is just 4-of-21 in the last two contests. This is not a case of playoff pressure but more of pressure by defensive specialist Tony Allen who not only appears inside the Golden State's shirts but inside their heads as well. Memphis' inside power game was dominate with 43 points and 23 rebounds in Game 3 and the Warriors must also contend with that. This is the biggest game of the year for the Warriors and I expect them to respond. Take GOLDEN STATE! Â Â |

Houston at L.A. Clippers 8:30 ET Clippers (-) over Rockets- You know these are the NBA Playoffs and all of these teams can 'play' basketball and it is surprising when one team takes over and dominates another the way the Clippers are handling the Rockets. Houston is 0-3 against the points in this series and the one game they won they staged a miracle comeback in the second half or they would be down 3-0. If Los Angeles loses here they realize that all the momentum would turn and the Rockets would have the psychological advantage. As far as in conference match-ups are concerned Houston has struggled going 0-5 in their last five against the NBA Pacific while the Clippers are 4-1 ATS in their last five against the NBA Southwest. Most think that the Rockets will bounce-back here and maybe they will be I see the Clippers running over them once again. Take LOS ANGELES! |

Cleveland at Chicago 3:30 ET Bulls (+) over Cavaliers- I don't know if you can tell but the Cleveland Cavaliers even with LeBron James loo different to me. Jimmy Butler has put the defensive clamps on James and the rest of the squad just can't pick-up the slack. It's like Ying and Yang the way the Bulls win with Derek Rose making big shots and hasn't actually played that well in the series. Kyrie Irving was horrible in Game 3 shooting 3-of-13 from the floor and now they claim he has a sore foot. Ever notice how losers manage to come up with 'lame' excuses after a loss of poor performance (see Manny Pacquiao). Pau Gasol may be on the sidelines for this one (he truly is hurt) and his replacement will be Taj Gibson who plays better defense. Look for Noah who is averaging 2.7 points and is just 3-for-16 shooting to emerge. Take CHICAGO! |

Golden State at Memphis 8:00 ET Grizzlies (+) over Warriors- We are all award how effective Golden State has been during the regular season setting a number of team franchise records for wins and winning personal awards but this is the Playoffs and things have a way of evening out. Memphis has played well at home home going 4-0-1 ATS in their last five as hosts while the Warriors are 1-5 ATS in their last six games following an ATS loss. Tony Allen famed for his defense has been giving Klay Thompson fits (3-of-11 from 3-point range with nine turnovers). Take the GRIZZLIES! |

Atlanta at Washington 5:00 ET Wizards (+) over Hawks- After sweeping the regular season series Atlanta is 5-1-1 ATS in the last seven meetings and the availability of Washington's John Wall will be sidelined but the Wizards still have Bradley Beal who is averaging 24 points in the series and Wal will be replaced by Ramon Sessions who has 21 points in his last effort. Even though the Hawks are 4-1-1 ATS in their last six following a ATS win they are just 3-12-1 in their last 16 Conference Semifinals games. But, the kicker is that the Wizards are 7-1-1 ATS in their last nine games overall and they are 31-12 straight-up at home. Take WIZARDS! Â Â |

Houston at L.A. Clippers 10:30 ET Rockets (+) over Clippers- The Clippers have covered two straight with Chris Paul and it appears he will be sidelined for Game 3 in Los Angeles. Houston came from behind in the second half Wednesday night as they set franchise record for free throws made (42) and attempted (64) as James Harden scored 32 points. Blake Griffin once again was the center of the Clippers game plan with 34 points and 15 rebounds but once again fell short in the fourth quarter. Houston's Dwight Howard balanced Griffin's performance with 24 points, 16 rebounds and four blocked shots in Game 2 and once again this one should come down to the final buzzer. Take the ROCKETS! Â |

L.A. Clippers at Houston 9:30 ET Rockets (+) over Clippers- I mentioned in my write-up of Game 1 of this series that Los Angeles might be better off if Chris Paul doesn't play and I looked like a genie as Austin Rivers had 17 points and pressured James Harden into nine turnovers. Although Harden had 'just' 20 points he did have 12 assists but was not on his game, tonight I expect him to explode along with Dwight Howard after his 22 point, 10 rebound and five steal performance. The rest of the Rockets need to pick up the slack and I expect they will tonight. A second loss at home to open this series may put Houston in a hole that they couldn't recover from. The points will be difficult to overcome but the Rockets are the side. Take HOUSTON! |

Chicago at Cleveland 7:10 ET Cavaliers (+) over Bulls- In Game 1 of this playoff series where the Bulls were never seriously threatened they held the lead for the full 48 minutes the first playoff game in the last 85 where the Cavaliers didn't have a lead at any time during the game. Without Kevin Love and J.R. Smith for one more game Lebron James will have to step-up him game for Cleveland to get over the rejuvenated Bulls. James had 19 points, 15 rebounds, three steals and nine assists in Game 1 but it wasn't enough as he will have to pick up the scoring load. Those numbers would be impressive for most others but most feel that James was responsible for the 99-92 defeat. This time the Cavaliers get it done. Take CLEVELAND! |

Washington at Atlanta Hawks (-) over Wizards- well, if the zig-zag theory (Taking the loser of Game 1 in Game 2) is to hold, now is that time to take advantage and take Atlanta. The odds-makers increased the points spread here as they are expecting money to come on the Hawks. But, it has not shown up yet. Washington has now won and covered five straight in the playoffs and are 8-1 on the road the past two postseasons including three straight in the 2015 playoffs. The Wizards held Atlanta to 35 second half points in Game 1 after the Hawks scored 63 in the first half and held a 12-point lead in the third quarter. This time around the Hawks complete the task. Take ATLANTA! |

Chicago at Cleveland 7:00 ET Cavaliers (-) over Bulls- This is the Playoff series in the East that most have been wanting to see and here it is but with a slight tarnish as the Cavaliers will be without two main clogs. Kevin Love is down for the rest of the season and J.R Smith will miss two games after being suspended from actions in the final game against Boston. Cleveland won three of four regular season meetings while the Bulls are coming off their most lopsided win (120-66) of the year over Milwaukee. Chicago may have Derek Rose back but the Cavaliers have LeBron James. Take CLEVELAND! Â |
