01-28-20 | Villanova v. St. John's OVER 143 | Top | 79-59 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 40 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the OVER Nova/St. John's. I'm expecting a faster paced affair and I look for this total to eclipse the posted number sooner, rather than later. Villanova comes in red hot by going 6-1 in its last seven conference games. St. John's not so much though, going just 2-6 in conference play, but coming off a huge 79-66 win over DePaul (Nova beat Providence 64-60 in its last action.) Villanova averages 74.3 PPG and it allows 66.2. St. John's averages 75.5 PPG and it allows 69. Key Trends: - Nova has interestingly seen the total go over the number in 16 of its last 25 after six or more consecutive SU victories. - St. John's has seen the total eclipse the posted number in four of its last five after having lost six or seven of its last eight games SU. The verdict: I expect a faster paced affair tonight and when the final horn sounds, look for these two offenses to then be the main story lines in tomorrow's summaries; play the over! |

01-25-20 | Lakers v. 76ers UNDER 216.5 | Top | 91-108 | Win | 100 | 26 h 59 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL ULTIMATE OF THE ULTIMATE is on the UNDER Lakers/76ers. Philadelphia has had a couple days off to absorb a double-digit road loss in Toronto. The Lakers are coming off a double-digit win over the Nets, one night after beating the Knicks. Philadelphia doesn't push the pace, and neither do the Lakers. LA is one of the most under-rated defenses in the league in my opinion. Key Trends: - LA has seen the total go under the number in 11 of its last 15 after playing four straight on the road. - Philly has seen the total dip under in 17 of its last 24 after playing two straight divisional contests. The verdict: I expect a hard-fought game, where every possession is contested. I also expect half-court sets from each side as it looks to establish its low post paint game. This number is high, play the under! |

01-25-20 | Tennessee v. Kansas OVER 122.5 | Top | 68-74 | Win | 100 | 21 h 22 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BLOOD-BATH is on the OVER Tennessee/Kansas. This is the Big 12/SEC Challenge and while these two teams are both stout defensively, I believe that we'll see a faster pace and ultimately a higher-scoring affair once it's all said and done. The Vols have won two straight in blowout fashion, having won each by at least 20 points, most recently beating down Ole Miss 73-48. Jordan Bowden leads the nightly charge by averaging 12.3 points along with 3.9 rebounds and 2.5 assists. Kansas is 15-3 and it's coming off an 83-60 destruction of K-State, a contest which ended in an ugly brawl and a number of suspensions. The best way to forget about that game and quickly move on? By winning and winning big of course! Key Trends: - Tennessee has seen the total go over the number in eight of its last 11 non-conference games and on a two-games or more unbeaten streak. - Kansas has seen the total fly over in eight of its last 12 non-conference home games as the favorite. The verdict: The overall situation and the trends all point to the "over" as the correct call in this one! |

01-24-20 | Nuggets v. Pelicans UNDER 231 | Top | 113-106 | Win | 100 | 13 h 16 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the UNDER Nuggets/Pelicans. New Orleans was playing better before Zion Williamson returned to the line-up, but now that he's back, there's finally some excitement going on with the Pelicans. Williamson had 22 points in a loss to the Spurs in his debut. The Pelicans though are only 8-14 at home this year. New Orlean's turnaround of play has been because of its offensive play, but I think the visiting side will slow this one down and look to control the pace whenever possible. The Nuggets average 109.3 PPG and they concede just 106. Denver is 13-8 on the road and it'll look to close out its road-trip with a win here by containing this young Pelicans team. Key Trends: - Denver has seen the total go under the number in five of seven as a road underdog already this year. - New Orleans has seen the total dip below the posted number in five of its last six off an upset loss as a home favorite. The verdict: The Nuggets play at one of the slowest paces in the NBA and I believe this will ultimately help in pushing this total well below this sky-high number; play the under! |
|||||||
01-23-20 | Lakers v. Nets UNDER 227 | Top | 128-113 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 44 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL U OF THE U is on the UNDER Lakers/Nets. The Lakers ground out a win in New York last night, and I believe we'll witness another lower-scoring affair here tonight as well. The Lakers have been getting the job done this season with better than expected defensive play and clearly the last thing they'll want to do is turn this into a "track meet" in the second game of the back-to-back scenario. Despite losing four in a row, the Nets are still in the eighth spot in the East. Offensive consistency, due to revolving injury issues from Day 1, from game to game continues to be their main issue though. Key Trends: - LA has seen the total go under the number in three of its last four when playing the second game of the back-to-back. - Brooklyn has seen the total go under the number in six of its last eight after a division game. The verdict: During their four-game slide the Nets haven't reached 110 points once and they failed to top 100 one time as well. When you add up all of the above factors, everything definitely points to the under as the savvy move in this one! |
|||||||
01-22-20 | Spurs v. Pelicans UNDER 237 | Top | 121-117 | Loss | -104 | 15 h 58 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on the UNDER Spurs/Pelicans. Depending on when you played the O/U in New Orleans' last game, the Pelicans have seen the total go over the number in over 11 straight games. The Spurs have won two straight, while the Pels have won three of their last four, while going 8-1 ATS in their last nine overall as well. New Orleans' offense has been "firing on all cylinders" over the last three weeks, but now suddenly the team welcomes back rookie Zion Williamson into the fold. Chemistry doesn't happen automatically and I believe his addition will throw a temporary "monkey wrench" into the Pelicans well oiled offensive machine right now. Key Trends: - The Spurs have seen the total go under in five of six already this season off a road victory. - The Pelicans have seen the total fall under in ten of their last 15 vs. clubs with losing records. The verdict: All signs point to this one falling well below the posted number once the final horn blares; play the under! |

My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the UNDER Raptors/Hawks. Toronto is 28-14 and it most recently got the better of Minnesota 122-112. The Hawks are only 10-33 and they're coming off a 136-103 loss to the Pistons. The night previous to that ATL had won big in OT on the road over the Spurs. The Hawks though have had difficulties producing vs. Toronto, as the "under" is 6-2 the last eight in this series. Key Trends: - TO has seen the total go under the number in three of its last four after playing to three or more consecutive overs. - ATL has seen the total dip under the number in three of four already this season after a huge blowout loss by 30 or more points. The verdict: The writing is on the wall and a tough-nosed defensive battle is finally in the cards here in my opinion; play the under! |

01-19-20 | Pacers v. Nuggets UNDER 211.5 | Top | 115-107 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 2 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the UNDER Pacers/Nuggets. Indiana has won four straight and this is the start of a five-game trip. Denver hits the road for a game in Minnesota tomorrow and it's won three straight. Denver beat Indiana 124-116 on the road last month, but I expect a much tighter, and ultimately lower-scoring affair this time around. Key Trends: - The Pacers have seen the total go under the number in seven of ten already this season in revenging a loss vs. an opponent which also scored 110 points or more in that victory. - The Nuggets have seen the total dip below the posted number in seven of eight this year as a home favorite of six points or less. The verdict: I think the writing is on the wall and a hard-fought, lower-scoring under is in the cards! |

01-18-20 | Kings v. Jazz UNDER 222.5 | Top | 101-123 | Loss | -104 | 29 h 51 m | Show |
My 10* U OF THE U is on the UNDER Kings/Jazz. Sacramento won't be going down without a fight here. The Kings are still in the mix for the eighth playoff spot and with the All Star break looming, I expect the visiting side to come to play tonight. Certainly the Kings won't be lacking for motivation after three straight close losses. The Jazz are 9-1 in their last ten games. Utah's lost loss came in its last game though, inexplicably falling to the Pelicans by a score of 138-132. Key Trends: - Utah averages 110.2 PPG. - Sacramento averages 106.8 PPG. The verdict: Both teams come in off higher-scoring contests, but this particular one has defensive battle written all over it; play the under! |
|||||||
01-18-20 | Cornell v. Columbia OVER 135 | Top | 61-75 | Win | 100 | 24 h 10 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL U OF THE U is on the OVER Cornell/Columbia. This is the start of Ivy League play for both teams and as such, I'm expecting a spirited battle. Columbia comes in with momentum and confidence after hammering Mount Saint Vincent by a score of 86-56. Note that Mike Smith is actually 12th in the NCAA, averaging 21.4 PPG. The Big Red come in excited as well after back-to-back wins over Div. III competition. So far Cornell has lost five of its games by two buckets or less. Key Trends: - Cornell has seen the total go over the number in eight of its last 12 conference road games on the heels of two or more SU victories. - Columbia has seen the total eclipse the posted number in ten of its last 14 home games after scoring 85 points or more in its previous game. The verdict: Expect these conference rivals to push the pace from start to finish and expect this one to sail comfortably over once the final horn blares! |

01-16-20 | Magic v. Clippers UNDER 217 | Top | 95-122 | Push | 0 | 16 h 33 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the UNDER Magic/Clippers. Orlando's surprisingly been one of the hottest teams in the league over the last two weeks, but after last night's 119-118 victory over the Lakers just last night in this same building, I believe the wheels finally come off the bus for the visiting side tonight. I think the Magic come out flat here, especially with much more "winnable" games at lowly Golden State and Charlotte to finish out their road-trip. The Clippers come in off a 128-103 win over the Cavaliers, but with a night off before a long six-game road trip, the home side also has a legitimate "look ahead" situation to overcome here. Key Trends: - The Magic have seen the total go under the number in five of their last six after two or more straight ATS/SU victories. - LA has already seen the total go under the number in 11 of its last 17 following a SU home win. The verdict: When taking into account all of the above factors, I definitely feel that this number is too high; play the under! |
|||||||
01-10-20 | Maryland v. Iowa UNDER 146.5 | Top | 49-67 | Win | 100 | 24 h 3 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE MONTH is on the UNDER Maryland/Iowa. The Terps arrive in town after a 67-55 win over No. 11 ranked Ohio State on Tuesday. Iowa will be cautious here after its 76-70 loss to Nebraska on Tuesday as an 8.5 point favorite. The Hawkeyes are going to have trouble scoring here though in my opinion vs. the Maryland team which just held Ohio State to 31.3 percent shooting (the eighth time this season already the Terps have held a team under 60 points.) Key Trends: - Maryland has seen the total go under the number in eight of its last ten as a favorite. - Iowa has seen the total dip below the posted number in seven of nine already this season when the total in the contest is set between 140 and 149.5. The verdict: Both teams play at a "medium" pace and when combined with the above information, I believe it does indeed all add up to a lower-scoring defensive battle; play the under! |
|||||||
01-09-20 | College of Charleston v. Elon UNDER 139 | Top | 73-65 | Win | 100 | 11 h 31 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE YEAR is on UNDER Charleston/Elon. The 10-6 Charleston Cougars are going to have their hands full I think with this hungry 4-12 Elon Phoenix team. Charleston won both games last year (72-53 at home and 84-74 at Elon.) This is the first game between the schools this year and I believe it'll produce a final combined score like the first one between them last season. The Cougars have posted five straight double-digit wins and they're 4-0 in league play. Charleston though averages just 71.4 PPG, while conceding only 67.1. Grant Riller leads the nightly charge with 22.2 PPG. The Phoenix have lost five straight. Marcus Sheffield averages 17.1 PPG. Overall the Phoenix average 68.6 PPG, while conceding 72.8. Key Trends: - The Cougars have seen the total go under the number in three of their last four as a road favorite in the 6.5 to 9 points range. - The Phoenix have seen the total dip below the posted number in six straight following a road loss by 20 points or more. The verdict: This is a bit of a trap for the Cougars. The last thing the Phoenix want to do though is to turn this into a "track meet." I believe this one definitely sets up as a lower-scoring defensive battle; play the under! |
|||||||
01-08-20 | Rockets v. Hawks UNDER 235.5 | Top | 122-115 | Loss | -109 | 13 h 60 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE MONTH is on the UNDER Rockets/Hawks. These teams mets back on November 30th and the Rockets annihilated the Hawks 158-111. Suffice it to say, I'm expecting a much lower-scoring defensive battle this time around. Houston comes in off back-to-back wins, most recently an impressive 118-108 win at Philadelphia. But with a game tomorrow night at Conference rival OKC on Thursday, the chance to look ahead is also very present for the visiting side. The Hawks have won two of their last four games, but they're out to redeem themselves after their most recent 123-115 setback to Denver. Key Trends: - Houston has seen the total go under in eight of 12 as a road favorite this season. - Atlanta has seen the total dip below the posted number in nine of its last 13 as a home underdog. The verdict: I think the Rockets go up early and then take the foot off the gas as they prepare for tomorrow night's game vs. the Thunder. I also expect the home side to play with pride here as it looks to avenge the earlier blowout loss; this number is high, play the under! |
|||||||
01-06-20 | Pacers v. Hornets UNDER 209.5 | Top | 115-104 | Loss | -108 | 27 h 52 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE YEAR is on the UNDER Pacers/Hornets. While the Pacers still have one of the best records in the Eastern Conference, they'll be eager to return to form here after a "brain fart" loss to the Hawks in their latest action. Charlotte enters off back-to-back road wins, including an OT victory in Dallas last time out. Can anyone say "letdown spot?!" The Pacers are one of the top defenses in the league as well, holding opponents to just 106.2 PPG. Key Trends: - Indiana has seen the total go under the number in 21 of its last 34 as a road favorite (including in six of nine this season.) - Charlotte has already seen the total dip below the posted number in ten of 15 as a home dog this season. The verdict: I think Indiana is out to control the tempo of this one. I also believe that the young Hornets are poised for a bit of a letdown after their successful road trip. All of the above factors add up to my 10* TOTAL OF THE YEAR on the under! |
|||||||
01-02-20 | Hornets v. Cavs OVER 210 | Top | 109-106 | Win | 100 | 26 h 24 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the OVER Hornets/Cavaliers. Neither team is known for its offensive prowess, but each comes in hungry and looking for a win here. Fortunately for each, neither plays great defensively either. These are professionals and the chance to win a game when playing for one of these clubs doesn't come around too often. I believe each side is going to push the pace and open up the playbook. Key Trends: - Charlotte has seen the total go over in 11 of 17 as a road dog already this season. - Cleveland has seen the total eclipse the posted number in six of its last eight after a blowout loss by 15 points or more. The verdict: Both the ATS numbers/trends and the overall situation point to the "over" as the correct call in this one! |
|||||||
12-31-19 | Mavs v. Thunder OVER 219.5 | Top | 101-106 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 41 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL ULTIMATE OF THE ULTIMATE is on the OVER Mavs/Thunder. The Thunder are 17-15 and are better than most thought they'd be. They come in off a big win over the Raptors as well and they'll be looking to kick this Mavericks team while it's down, as Dallas enters off a humbling loss to the Lakers. That said, clearly Luka Doncic and company will be out to atone for their lacklustre performance last time out. The Thunder average and allow right around 109 PPG. Dallas averages 116. Key Trends: - Dallas has seen the total go over the number in 11 of 16 on the road already this season. - OKC has seen the total go over the number in four of its last five after playing two straight on the road. The verdict: I like the Mavs to push the pace from start to finish and I look for the home side to respond; play the over! |
|||||||
12-26-19 | Blazers v. Jazz UNDER 220 | Top | 115-121 | Loss | -116 | 14 h 11 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BIG TIGERS is on the UNDER Blazers/Jazz. Two teams hungry for a victory collide in this one and when the smoke does finally clear, I believe this one will fall well below the posted number. Portland comes to town rested after its four game win streak was snapped inexplicably by the New Orleans Pelicans. The Jazz though are in the exact same boat, as their five-game win skein came to a crashing halt with a blowout loss to the Heat in their last outing. From an overall "situational" stand point, all signs point to a lower-scoring defensive battle in my opinion. Key Trends: - Portland has seen the total go under in 14 of 23 this year when the total is greater than or equal to 220. - Utah has seen the total dip below the posted number in three of four this year after allowing 105 points or more in three straight games. The verdict: This one has the feel of a "chess match," rather than a run and gun "shootout." Play the under! |
|||||||
12-14-19 | Fresno State v. Cal Poly OVER 134.5 | Top | 62-37 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 26 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL ULTIMATE OF THE ULTIMATE is on the OVER Fresno State/Cal Poly. These are two teams hungry for a win. Fresno State is 2-7 and Cal Poly is 2-8. The Bulldogs come in off a tight 69-63 loss to Cal on Wednesay, led by 21 points from New Williams. For the season the Bulldogs average 70.6 PPG and they allow 70.2. The Mustangs broke a five-game slide with a 70-66 win over Sienna last time out and I think that first year coach John Smith's team can build off that performance at home. Key Trends: - Fresno State has seen the total go over the number in all three games it's played in this year as a favorite. - Cal Poly has seen the total soar over the number in 13 of its last 16 as a home dog. The verdict: This one has the feel of a wide open "shootout," rather than a slower-paced "chess match." Play the over! |
|||||||
12-09-19 | Thunder v. Jazz UNDER 212.5 | Top | 104-90 | Win | 100 | 14 h 11 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BIG TIGER is on the UNDER Thunder/Jazz. Oklahoma City comes in off a 108-96 win at Portland just last night, so I think it'll predictably struggle to put up much of a fight in this difficult road venue and in the second game of the back-to-back scenario. Would anyone blame the Thunder for having a letdown here either after winning four of five? The Jazz have taken a step back on the defensive side of the ball of late, but they're still conceding only 106 PPG on average. Utah got back on track after a three-game slide with a win over the Grizzlies last time. With three whole days off to prepare for this one, I like the Jazz to come out and lock down on the defensive side. Key Trends: - The Thunder have seen the total go under the number in six of their last seven as a road dog in the 6.5 to 12 points range. - The Jazz have seen the total go under in all three games vs. division opponents already this year. The verdict: The numbers and the overall situation all point to the "under" as the savvy call here in my opinion! |
|||||||
12-07-19 | Suns v. Rockets UNDER 241.5 | Top | 109-115 | Win | 100 | 13 h 7 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BIG TIGER is on the UNDER Suns/Rockets. These teams play little defense and each gets out and pushes the pace. That said, I still believe this number is too high. The Suns come in off a high-scoring OT win over the Pelicans in New Orleans, but they're still only 2-3 in their last five. After the marathon last time out, I think Phoenix takes a predictable step back here. The Rockets' James Harden is averaging 38.7 PPG this year. Russell Westbrook is coming off a triple double in a victory at Toronto. After the big win over the defending champs on the road, this does also potentially set up as a bit of a trap. Key Trends: - Phoenix has seeen the total go under in four of five thi syear when the total is greater than or equal to 230. - Houston has seen the total go under in nine of its last 12 in the same position. The verdict: Addmitedly, these two teams are trash on defense. But I think the situation that each finds itself in coming into this one will help in contributing it to finally being a bit more of a defensive battle; play the under! |
|||||||
12-02-19 | Suns v. Hornets UNDER 225.5 | Top | 109-104 | Win | 100 | 11 h 4 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE MONTH is on the UNDER Suns/Hornets. From both situational and trend based stand points, I think this sets up great for a lower-scoring defensive battle. The Suns are dire need of a victory here as they've lost three straight. The Hornets had won two in a row before falling 137-96 to the Bucks on Monday. Charlotte shot just 36% vs. Milwaukee. Key Trends: - Phoenix has seen the total go under in four of its last five on the road. - Charlotte has seen the total dip under in five of its last six as a home dog. The verdict: Two teams hungry for a victory battle tooth and nail and this one stays WELL under the number once the final horn sounds! |
|||||||
11-30-19 | Hornets v. Bucks UNDER 228.5 | Top | 96-137 | Loss | -109 | 13 h 2 m | Show |
My 10* CLASH OF THE TITANS is the UNDER Hornets/Bucks. Charlotte only averages 105.7 PPG this year as it looks to find an identity after guard Kemba Walker left. Note that the Hornets have failed to score over 102 points in three of their last five. Devonte' Graham has been a bright spot by averaging 13.3 PPG. The Bucks average a league-leading 119.4 PPG, but note that forward Khris Middleton is expected to sit this one. Key Trends: - Charlotte has seen the total dip under in four of five off an upset win as an underdog. - Milwaukee has seen the total go under in interestingly its last five games after back-to-back no ATS cover where it won SU as the favorite. The verdict: Considering all of the above information, I do indeed feel this number is a tad high; play the under! |
|||||||
11-27-19 | Pistons v. Hornets OVER 216.5 | Top | 101-102 | Loss | -107 | 25 h 32 m | Show |
My 10* play is on the OVER Pistons/Hornets. The Pistons beat the Magic last time out, allowing a season-low 88 points. Orlando was in a bad spot there though with a recent injury to star player Nikola Vucevic. Charlotte won't be resting on its laurels here though as it looks to break a five-game slide. Note that the Pistons play with revenge here as well afer a 109-106 loss to Charlotte at home at the start of the year. Key Trends: - Detroit has seen the total go over in four of five this year in revenging a loss vs. an opponent. - Charlotte has seen the total go over nine of its last 14 as a home underdog. The verdict: I think the overall situation finally points to more of a "shootout" between these two clubs which normally struggle to put points on the board; play the over! |
|||||||
11-22-19 | Spurs v. 76ers UNDER 224.5 | Top | 104-115 | Win | 100 | 26 h 26 m | Show |
My 10* play on the Spurs/76ers UNDER. What do you base your Over/Under picks on? Is it different for every sport? I use a number of different handicapping methodolgies when making my selections, but I think the overall "situation" that each of these teams finds itself in coming into this contest is going to lead to more of a defensive affair. The Spurs have lost seven straight and they'll be doing everything they can to try and get off the schneid. Clearly getting into a "shootout" with the home side is NOT what Greg Popovich and company will want though. San Antonio is thin after LaMarcus Aldridge and DeMar DeRozan, so instead the visitors will have to control the pace of this one throughout. And for the 76ers, they have the Heat coming to town tomorrow, followed by a game vs. the Raptors. This is a "trap game" for the home side and I do think it'll get caught looking ahead here. Key Trends: - SA has seen the total dip under in 21 of its last 34 after scoring 110 points or more in two straight games. - Philly has seen the total dip under in 14 of its last 22 off a win vs. a division rival. The verdict: This one has the feel of a "chess match," rather than a wide open "shootout." Play the under! |
|||||||
11-21-19 | Pelicans v. Suns OVER 233 | Top | 124-121 | Win | 100 | 16 h 0 m | Show |
My 10* CLASH-OF-THE-TITANS is on the OVER Pelicans/Suns. New Orleans is finally starting to find its footing after having to start the campaign with Zion Williamson. New Orleans comes in off an upset win at home over Portland and I like it to keep the foot on the gas here as it looks to take advantage of a suddenly struggling Suns side which has dropped three of five. Brandon Ingram has been playing strong offensively for the Pelicans, as he averages a team-best 25.4 PPG. Note though that NO's still allows an atrocious 118.9 PPG on average. The Suns' once rosey start to the 2018/19 campaign is gone. Phoenix will be leaning heavily on guard Devin Booker to help them break the slide here; so far Booker leads the nightly charge with 25.4 PPG. Key Trends: - NO's has seen the total go over in three of its last four as a road underdog. - Phoenix has seen the total soar over in six of its last seven home games. The verdict: This one has wide open "shootout" written all over it; play the over! |
|||||||
11-19-19 | Warriors v. Grizzlies UNDER 222 | Top | 114-95 | Win | 100 | 28 h 43 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BIG TIGER is on the UNDER Warriors/Grizzlies. The Warriors have lost seven straight, most recently a 108-100 loss to the Pelicans on Sunday. The Grizz have been better than expected this year, but they come in off a terrible 131-114 home loss to Denver. There's nothing positive to say about Golden State, as all of its star players are injured. The Warriors are terrible on both ends of the court, but especially on the offensive side. Memphis has also struggled defensively this year, but the hungry Grizz clearly catch a break here facing this terrible Warriors' offense. Key Trends: - Memphis has seen the total go under in 18 of its last 24 as a home favorite of six points or less. The verdict: With each side doubling down defensively, expect this total to stay well below the posted number; play the under! |
|||||||
11-15-19 | Spurs v. Magic UNDER 212.5 | Top | 109-111 | Loss | -106 | 27 h 60 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the under Spurs/Magic. The Magic did much better than everyone expected last year and Orlando had high hopes coming into this season. But the Magic haven't looked good to open the 2019/20 campaign. That said, Orlando enters off its best performance of the year in pulling away for a 112-97 win over the 76ers. Nikola Vucevic posted a double-double of 25 points and 12 rebounds. The Spurs come in off back-to-back terrible efforts, allowing 135 points in a loss to Boston, before then falling 129-114 to the Wolves. DeMar DeRozan led San Antonio with 27 points, five rebounds, and a couple of blocks. Key Quote: Spurs' coach Gregg Popovich clearly frustrated by his team's lack of defensive effort of late and said this after his team's last loss: "They executed, they were unselfish, and they made 3s. They had a lot of guys that played well, and they were aggressive. From our end, I think we were very challenged defensively, another poor outing." The verdict: I think both teams double down on the defensive end and I look for this competitive match to fall well below the posted number once it's all said and done; play the under! |
|||||||
11-10-19 | Raptors v. Lakers UNDER 215 | Top | 113-104 | Loss | -110 | 28 h 50 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL ROAST is on the UNDER Raptors/Lakers. The Lakers face a stretch of "easy" competition after the Raptors tonight. Toronto comes to town with star Kyle Lowry injured as well. After this LA faces the Suns in Phoenix, followed by home games vs. Golden State, Sacramento and Atlanta. The Lakers aren't even at full health, but clearly the biggest difference from last year's team to this seasons is the tough defensive play. LA's defense is being vastly under-rated here vs. this under-manned Raptors side in my opinion. Toronto's road ahead is MUCH more difficult. After this they're vs. the Clippers in the same arena, followed by contests in Portland and Dallas. Key Trends: - Toronto has seen the total dip under the number in four of its last five as a road dog in the 6.5 to 12 points range. - LA has seen the total go under in 13 of its last 16 as a home favorite in the 6.5 to 12 points range. The verdict: Toronto is also without the services of big man Serge Ibaka due to injury. I have a hard time seeing the visitors adjusting and I believe they're going to get shutdown; play the under! |
|||||||
11-09-19 | CS-Fullerton v. Stanford OVER 139 | Top | 54-70 | Loss | -110 | 31 h 42 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BEST OF THE BEST is on the OVER Cal State/Stanford. The three-point line in College Basketball was moved back at the start of the season. Has this truly effected totals early? Also note that the shot clock has been reduced to just 20 seconds on offensive rebounds, which is supposed to hurry the game up. Cal State Fullerton lost in a poor showing to BYU in its opener, so there's no question it'll be pushing the pace from the opening tip until the final horn here. The Cardinal enter off a victory over Montana to start their season. Cal State allowed BYU to shoot 49.1 percent from the field in its opener though, including 45.8 percent from range. Stanford is deep and I think its entire bench can produce today (note the Cardinal bench had 23 points in the season opening victory.) Key Trends: - Cal State has seen the total go over in seven of its last ten road games when the total is set between 135 and 140 points. - Stanford has seen the total eclipse the posted number in five of its last six home games when the total falls between 135 and 140 points. The verdict: The writing is on the wall and a "shootout" is in the cards; play the over! |

11-09-19 | Mavs v. Grizzlies UNDER 218.5 | Top | 138-122 | Loss | -110 | 28 h 49 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL TOMAHAWK is on the UNDER Mavs/Grizz. Dallas lost outright at home to the Knicks last night and I think the offense will struggle to score here as well. If you can't score againt the Knicks, then who can you score on? The Mavs get really thin after Luca Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis and playing the second game of a back-to-back just doesn't bode well for the Mavericks already struggling offense. The Grizzlies don't have many offensive weapons either behind Ja Morant (Jaren Jackson Jr. averages 11 PPG.) If Memphis is going to pull off the slight upset here, it's going to because they clamped down and grinded it out. Key Trends: - Dallas has seen the total go under in 57 of its last 90 vs. poor defensive teams which allow 106 plus points per contest. - Memphis has seen the total dip under in 21 of its last 31 vs. division opponents. The verdcit: I expect a lot of half court sets from the home side while its on offense and when taking into account the rest of the above information, I'm absolutely expecting a hard-fought and ultimately lower-scoring defensive affair. Play the under! |
|||||||
11-04-19 | Bucks v. Wolves UNDER 230.5 | Top | 134-106 | Loss | -110 | 28 h 53 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the UNDER Bucks/Wolves. I believe the Wolves struggle with their offense here without Karl Anthony Townes in the line-up, who is serving a three-game suspension for fighting. The Bucks are 4-2, while the Wolves are 4-1. When making my O/U picks (in all sports), for the most part I look at the overall "situation" that each team finds itself in coming into the contest. The Wolves won their first game without Townes, but the last thing they can do here is turn this one into a "shootout" and expect to hang with the Bucks. Key Trends: - Milwaukee has seen the total go under in five of its last six vs. clubs with winning records. - Minnesota has seen the total dip under in interestingly 23 of its last 30 contests played in the month of November. Does this stat matter? Probably not...but it doesn't hurt! The verdict: I expect the home side to try and slow the pace of this one down and as such, I'm on the "under!" |

11-01-19 | Spurs v. Warriors UNDER 225 | Top | 127-110 | Loss | -108 | 30 h 27 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BIG TIGER is on the UNDER Spurs/Warriors. The Spurs struggled to score points in their 103-97 setback at the Clippers just last night. The Warriors are now without star Steph Curry after he broke his hands in their last game. The Spurs will try to take advantage, but the home side is going to have to go through some adjustments here as it looks to find an identity. This one has the feel of more of a "chess match," with a lot of "half court sets" being run on the offensive end. Key Trends: - San Antonio has seen the total go under the number in 15 of its last 21 as a road favorite of six points or less. - Golden State has seen the total dip below the posted number in 14 of its last 21 as an underdog. The verdict: San Antonio is tired and Golden State is "shell shocked." For all the reasons listed above, play the under! |

10-31-19 | Heat v. Hawks OVER 216.5 | Top | 106-97 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 5 m | Show |
My 10* CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the OVER Heat/Hawks. Despite the Hawks not having star Trae Young in the line-up, I think we'll see a faster paced, higher-scoring shootout in this particular matchup. The Hawks lost to Miami on Tuesday 112-97 and they'll be out for some immediate revenge. The Heat though will be looking to take advantage and to build on their 3-1 start to the season. Overall Miami is averaging 118 PPG, while conceding 110. Key Trends: - Miami has seen the total go over in seven of its last ten after scoring 105 points or more in four straight game. - Atlanta has seen the total eclipse the posted number in 61 of its last 100 following a SU loss. The verdict: I like Atlanta to push the pace from start to finish as it looks to avenge the loss to the Heat on Tuesday; play the over! |

10-30-19 | Wolves v. 76ers UNDER 225 | Top | 95-117 | Win | 100 | 26 h 14 m | Show |
My 10* play is on the UNDER Wolves/76ers. Minnesota is 3-0. Philadelphia is 3-0. Two teams enter with a perfect record, but only one will leave with that mark in tact. Whoever comes out on top, I think the competitive nature of this one will help in driving this total well under the posted number once it's all said and done. Key Trends: - The Wolves have seen the total go under in 11 of their last 17 as a road dog in the 6.5 to 12 points range. - The 76ers have seen the total dip uner in 20 of their last 32 home games as a favorite in the 6.5 to 12 points range. The verdict: Both teams are in the middle of the pack in scoring, but in the bottom half in three-point percentage. Expect this "war" to fall under at the end of the night! |

10-28-19 | Nuggets v. Kings OVER 218 | Top | 101-94 | Loss | -110 | 28 h 13 m | Show |
My 10* play on the OVER Nuggets/Kings. I think the 0-3 Kings push the pace from start to finish in this one. The Kings average 96 PPG and they concede 120. The Nuggets average 108 PPG and they allow 104. Key Trends: - Denver has seen total go over in 20 of its last 30 after a win by six points or more. - Sacramento has seen the total go over in nine of its last 13 after scoring 90 points or less in its previous contest. The verdict: I expect a faster paced, higher-scoring shootout in this one! |

10-26-19 | Raptors v. Bulls UNDER 223 | Top | 108-84 | Win | 100 | 27 h 3 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE MONTH is on the UNDER Raptors/Bulls. The Bulls came from behind to knock off the Grizzlies 110-102 last night. Toronto had the lead for most of the game in Boston, but it then fell flat in a 112-106 setback. While still only the start of the season, I think each team comes in "gassed" after their respective decisions last night and because of that, I'm absolutely expecting much more of a defensive battle than what this large O/U line would suggest. This one sets up great for the under from a situational stand point. Key Trends: - Toronto has seen the total go under the number in nine of its last 11 off a loss to a division rival. - Chicago has seen the total dip below the posted number in 14 of its last 22 home games when the total in the contest is greater than or equal to 220. The verdict: The situation and the numbers/trends both point to the under as the correct call in this one! |

06-10-19 | Warriors v. Raptors OVER 211.5 | Top | 106-105 | Loss | -110 | 35 h 56 m | Show |
Ricky’s 10* play on the over. This is the third pick of my 3-game NBA Game 5 report. I’m also taking the Warriors for the FIRST HALF and for the entire game as well. And if you read my analysis on those selections, you know what I’m expecting the desperate visiting champs to push the pace from the “get go.” Clearly the Warriors can’t just sit back and hope that things work out, they’re going to have to dictate the pace of this one and with the home side matching pace, from a situational angle, this one definitely sets up as more of a “shootout” than “chess match” in my opinion. Key Trends: - Golden State has seen the total go over in four of its last five in trying to revenge two straight losses vs. an opponent of the points or more. - Toronto has seen the total go over in nine of 11 this year after two or more straight road victories. The verdict: For all the reasons listed above, play the over! |

06-07-19 | Raptors v. Warriors OVER 215.5 | Top | 105-92 | Loss | -110 | 36 h 46 m | Show |
Ricky’s 10* play is on the over in Game 4. I took the over in Game 1, the under in Game 2 and then the over in Game 3. With their backs against the wall and with Klay Thompson returning though (after missing Game 3), I believe the Warriors push the pace as they look to avoid the dreaded 1-3 hole. Golden State can ill afford to rest on its laurels, instead it’s going to have to play frantic and with purpose. Everything points to a a bunch of points being put on the board tonight! Key Trends: - Toronto has seen the total soar over the number in eight of its last 13 playoff road games following an ATS road victory. - Golden State has seen the total go over the number in nine of its last 14 following a home ATS/SU playoff loss. The verdict: The Warriors were just fine without KD in the line-up vs. the Blazers, but without Thompson in the line-up, they just couldn’t keep pace with Toronto in Game 3. Thompson’s back and I expect the “Splash Brothers” to try and set the tone early. This number is low, play the over! |

06-05-19 | Raptors v. Warriors OVER 213 | Top | 123-109 | Win | 100 | 61 h 45 m | Show |
Ricky’s 10* play on the over. I had a play on the over in Game 1 and the under in Game 2. Both have been close, but in Game 3 I’m expecting more of a wide-open shootout. Golden State looked great defensively in the second half of Game 2 and it was the primary reason it was able to tie this series up. Toronto had success in Game 1 because it pushed the pace and dictated the tempo. The visitors can’t let Golden State do what it wants and expect to win obviously, so I’m expecting them to push the pace from start to finish. Golden State as well seems to shoot better at home and I expect head coach Steve Kerr to give Stephen Curry the “green light.” From a situational point of view I think this one definitely sets up great as a higher-scoring shootout. Key Trends: - Toronto has seen the total go over in seven of its last 11 road playoff games following an ATS/SU home loss. - Golden State has seen the total fly above the posted number in 12 of its last 20 after a five points or more road playoff victory. The verdict: Toronto’s role players were a “no show” in Game 2 after the big Game 1 performance, but a return to form is imminent with that veteran core. I think this one sets up as a “shootout” in Game 3, play the over! |

06-02-19 | Warriors v. Raptors UNDER 215 | Top | 109-104 | Win | 100 | 35 h 16 m | Show |
Ricky’s 10* play on the under Warriors/Raptors. I had a play on the “over” in Game 1, but in Game 2 I expect much more of a defensive affair. The Raptors got a huge effort from Paskal Sikiam, which turned out to be the difference in Toronto’s victory. A repeat performance is likely out of the question though. Draymond Green was torched in Game 1 defensively for the Warriors, but I think he and the Golden State bench/role players make the necessary adjustments to be much more competitive in Game 2. The Raptors continued their strong defensive play in Game 1 and I don’t think there’s any reason not to believe that trend won’t carry over in Game 2 as well. Key Trends: - Toronto has seen the total go under in seven of its last nine home games after a two games or more unbeaten streak. - The Warriors have seen the total go under in eight of their last 12 road games after losing by five or more points in a playoff contest. The verdict: I think the Warriors double down defensively today. This number is high, play the under! |
