12-23-14 | Cornell +6.5 v. Siena | 75-57 | Win | 100 | 14 h 51 m | Show | |
Cornell +6.5 The Cornell Big Red are one of the most improved teams in college basketball this year. This team was absolutely dreadful last year, but if you look at what they have done this year so far, Cornell has been very good. Cornell has played some pretty good teams very competitively. Siena is missing some very good players due to injuries and suspensions. Jimmy Patsos is having to rely on some inexperienced guys and guys who are undersized right now. Siena is without their leading scorer, their leading rebounder, and their best post presence on the defensive end. The Saints play hard, but it's tough to cover a number this big when you are missing so many key players. Cornell has proven they will fight to the final whistle and we think the value is definitely with the underdog. Take Cornell. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NCAAB ATS Play |

12-21-14 | Bradley +8 v. UC-Irvine | 47-55 | Push | 0 | 6 h 8 m | Show | |
Bradley +7.5 The Bradley Braves aren't a particularly strong team, but they definitely don't deserve to be this kind of an underdog against a very short-handed UC Irvine team. The Anteaters aren't even close to the same team without their 7'6 center N'Diaye patrolling the paint. UC Irvine is a tremendous mid-major team with N'Diaye in the lineup, but without him they are just an ordinary team. The Anteaters haven't been able to cover a spread since he went down. Still, the oddsmakers are being slow to react. Bradley has played in quite a few close games this year. Though the Braves might not be able to finish games out, we don't need them to finish this one off to cash this bet. Bradley is improving with their young team, and they have a solid coach leading the way. This price is out of whack. Take Bradley. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NCAAB ATS Play |

12-19-14 | Clemson v. South Carolina -8 | 45-68 | Win | 100 | 10 h 22 m | Show | |
South Carolina -8 The South Carolina Gamecocks have double revenge on their mind as they take on the Clemson Tigers on Friday night. For those of you who don't know much about these two teams, South Carolina and Clemson have a serious football rivalry, and they don't care for each other in basketball either. Clemson lost their best player from last year (McDaniel) and this Tigers team has struggled through the early part of their schedule. Losses to Gardner Webb, Winthrop, and Rutgers have shown this Tigers team will have a tough time in the ACC. Frank Martin is an intense guy and he's had lots of time to get his team ready for this game. They haven't played for nearly two weeks. Also, check out the fact that Clemson is playing in their first road game of the year. The fact that it is against a rival makes it that much more difficult. Take South Carolina. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NCAAB ATS Play |

12-18-14 | DePaul v. Oregon State -3.5 | 59-90 | Win | 100 | 20 h 22 m | Show | |
Oregon State -3.5 The DePaul Blue Demons are a bad basketball team right now. DePaul has one decent win this year, and that was a home win over Stanford. Other than that win, DePaul has a one point win over UIC and an 11 point win over Northern Illinois. DePaul also has a 12 point loss at home to Lehigh as well as a six point home loss at home to Illinois State. We were on Illinois State in that one and cashed in. We'll look to go against DePaul again here. Oregon State isn't a terribly talented team, but they are improving quickly thanks to the leadership of new head coach Wayne Tinkle. Coach Tinkle was highly successful for many years at Montana. He is just starting to build a nice base at Oregon State. The Beavers aren't going to win very many games in the Pac-12 Conference this year, but because of their strong defense, they will beat teams that have no real leadership. DePaul is one of those teams. Take Oregon State. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NCAAB ATS Play |

12-16-14 | Dartmouth v. Mercer -4 | 67-51 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 17 m | Show | |
Mercer -4 The Mercer Bears are nothing close to the team they were last year, but it won't take a team that good to cover the number against the Dartmouth Big Green. It's no secret that the majority of the Ivy League (outside of Harvard and Yale) isn't good in college basketball, and Dartmouth is particularly bad on the road. Mercer has played against a relatively tough schedule so far this year. I like that Coach Hoffman has been able to find out a lot about his team during games that test them. Dartmouth has played one of the weakest schedules in the country so far this year. Mercer has a lot more depth than does Dartmouth. If Maldunas gets into foul trouble as he often does, Dartmouth is left with no inside scoring presence at all. Dartmouth's struggles on the road continue. Take Mercer. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

12-14-14 | Illinois State +3 v. DePaul | 78-72 | Win | 100 | 15 h 2 m | Show | |
The Illinois State Redbirds have a nice opportunity on Sunday. Illinois State has the chance to beat a "bigger name" school inside the state. DePaul is certainly the bigger name school because of their history. DePaul has really struggled to get going under Oliver Purnell. Purnell isn't having near as much success recruiting Chicago high school stars as the program thought he was going to have. DePaul's two best players from last year are gone, and the Blue Demons don't have enough firepower now. Illinois State is a team to watch in the Missouri Valley Conference. The MVC is really improving as a conference with Wichita State rising so quickly and others being forced to raise their game. We've seen it out of Northern Iowa already this year. Watch for Illinois State to surprise people with their defensive pressure. Illinois State pulls the upset here. Take Illinois State. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NCAAB ATS Play |

12-13-14 | Northern Iowa +6 v. VCU | 87-93 | Push | 0 | 18 h 11 m | Show | |
Northern Iowa +6 The Northern Iowa Panthers are unbeaten, but they aren't getting much love from the oddsmakers. They go to VCU to play a Rams team that has honestly been a big disappointment so far this year. VCU was trashed on a neutral floor by Villanova and lost on the road to ODU. Shaka Smart is a good coach, so he will have his team playing good basketball by the end of the year. Still, it's hard to see why they should be favored by this many points against a good veteran team like Northern Iowa. It's important to remember that Northern Iowa plays at an extremely deliberate pace which makes a lot of their games be low scoring battles. That means getting six points is a big value here. Northern Iowa has the guards needed to break the VCU pressure and make them pay. Take Northern Iowa. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* NCAAB ATS Play |

12-10-14 | Miami Heat v. Denver Nuggets -3.5 | 82-102 | Win | 100 | 30 h 3 m | Show | |
The Denver Nuggets host the Miami Heat on Wednesday night. The Nuggets really turned things around after a slow start, but a recent four-game slid has bettors looking to avoid the Nuggets. That's not the right move, as a closer look at their schedule shows a two-point loss to a good Portland team, and three losses to quality opponents on the road. A return home will do the team wonders. They are 4-0-1 ATS in their last five home games. The Nuggets are playing good basketball, led by point guard Ty Lawson, who looks to reach double-digit assists for the 10th consecutive game on Wednesday. As for the Heat, they struggled with the Nuggets even when LeBron James was around, and now have to take on a rested Denver squad while they themselves play on the second night of a back-to-back. The Nuggets are 13-3 ATS in the last 16 meetings between these teams, and 7-1 ATS in the last eight meetings in Denver. Take Denver. Good Luck, Razor Ray Wednesday 8* ATS Play |

12-08-14 | IUPU Ft Wayne +14 v. Purdue | 43-63 | Loss | -105 | 14 h 10 m | Show | |
IPFW +14 The IPFW Mastadons might be an unfamilar name to you, but they have a nice little squad. This is a team that lost very little from last year, and last year's team did a lot of damage in the Summit League. IPFW only lost by 9 at Georgia Tech this year, and they have won three road games. Purdue is certainly the more talented team here, but the Boilermakers are extremely young. With youth comes a lot of inconsistency and we saw that last game when Purdue lost at home to North Florida. I don't have to tell you that the fact North Florida won that game was a huge upset. The only thing that makes this a 7* play instead of a 9 or 10* play is the fact that Purdue lost last game. The Boilermakers still have lots of fundamental flaws though. IPFW has a veteran team. Take the dog. Take IPFW. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 7* CBB ATS Play |

12-07-14 | North Dakota State v. Montana -5.5 | 57-69 | Win | 100 | 10 h 51 m | Show | |
Montana -5.5 Montana has been a good home team for many years. We realize they have a new coaching staff now, but it's unlikely their home court advantage is going to suffer much at all. Playing in altitude in the West can be difficult for opponents to get used to. The Grizzlies have gone to double overtime twice on the road this year against very good opponents. This team has a lot of spunk. They have played some tough teams already this year, which has them ready for this game. North Dakota State is still getting too much love from the oddsmakers based on what they did last year. North Dakota State not only has a new coach, but they also lost their star player when Taylor Braun graduated. This team looks nothing like last year's, and they shouldn't be given this much respect. Take Montana. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 6* NCAAB ATS Play |

12-06-14 | New Mexico v. Valparaiso -7 | 63-46 | Loss | -106 | 17 h 1 m | Show | |
Valparaiso -7 The Valparaiso Crusaders are having a really nice season under Coach Bryce Drew. Valparaiso has a team loaded with depth, and that depth has helped them to an impressive 8-1 start to the season. New Mexico has been a really good team in the Mountain West the last few years. This year's team is nothing like the team from the past few season. Kendall Williams is gone and he was the point guard who did it all for them. Alex Kirk and Cameron Bairstow are both gone from the frontcourt as well. New Mexico was going to build around Cullen Neal, but he is injured. The Lobos have played some bad basketball since he went down. New Mexico lost badly to Texas A&M and USC, and neither of those teams are good. This is New Mexico's first road game of the year, and Valparaiso will be motivated here. Take Valparaiso. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* CBB ATS Play |

12-06-14 | Western Kentucky v. Murray State -5 | 81-93 | Win | 100 | 17 h 56 m | Show | |
Murray State -5 The Murray State Racers have underachieved so far this year. Murray State is far more talented than they have shown. The Racers are a team that should be the best in their conference, and there will likely be some good chances to back them this year. The fact that they have played poorly leading up to this key game helps the value here. Western Kentucky is an intrastate rivalry for Murray State, and the Racers will be up for this game. Murray State lost at Western Kentucky last year despite leading almost the entire game. It's a great chance for revenge here. Western Kentucky is a pretty good team, but they have some drastic home/road splits in the last few years. The Hilltoppers aren't good away from home, and that should be exposed in a big rivalry game like this one. Take Murray State. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CBB ATS Play |

11-28-14 | Dallas Mavericks v. Toronto Raptors -3.5 | 106-102 | Loss | -108 | 3 h 28 m | Show | |
Toronto -3.5 The Toronto Raptors host the Dallas Mavericks on Friday night at the Air Canada Centre. The Mavericks have beaten up on lesser opponents this season. Star forward Dirk Nowitzki is one of the players on the team that’s feasted against lesser opponents but struggled against quality foes. He’s hitting on 59.8 percent of his shots against opponents below .500, and hitting on 40.4 percent of his shots against teams that are above .500. As a team, the Mavericks are scoring 99.3 points per game against opponents that are above .500, compared with 117.0 points per game against opponents with losing records. In addition to facing a team with a winning record in this one, the Mavs may have to do so without Jameer Nelson, who is dealing with back spasms. The Mavericks are 0-4 ATS in the last four meetings between these teams, and 2-6 ATS in the last eight meetings in Toronto. Take the Raptors. Good Luck, Razor Ray 8* NBA Friday ATS Play |

11-26-14 | Alabama State +1.5 v. North Dakota | 68-75 | Loss | -103 | 4 h 3 m | Show | |
Alabama State +1.5 The Alabama State Hornets have the best team in the SWAC this year. Alabama State actually lead Arkansas on the road in the second half earlier this year. The Razorbacks are a high quality team, and that performance told me a lot about the Hornets potential this season. Alabama State is well balanced with some solid big guys down low who can rebound as well as some good ball handlers in the backcourt. North Dakota doesn’t have that same balance. North Dakota will need to retool this year. This is a team that lost its three best players from a year ago. North Dakota plays in the Big Sky Conference, and that is one of the worst conferences in college basketball. This one is one of those under the radar games that can have a great deal of value, especially early in the year. Alabama State should win this game, and as an underdog, there is a lot of line value on this play. Take Alabama State. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* CBB ATS Play |

11-26-14 | Washington Wizards +7 v. Cleveland Cavaliers | 87-113 | Loss | -103 | 3 h 13 m | Show | |
The Cleveland Cavaliers host the Washington Wizards on Wednesday evening. The last result for each of these teams is playing far too great a factor in this line. Cleveland has struggled this season but is coming off a big win over Orlando, while Washington has been hot, but was guilty of looking ahead to this matchup last night. Washington downed Cleveland on Friday by a score of 91-78. The change of venue doesn’t justify this big a swing in the line, but with the general public running to the window to get behind the sexy Cavaliers, we’re able to get in at a very fair line. The Cavaliers are 1-4 ATS in their last five games overall. Take Washington. Good Luck, Razor Ray Wednesday 8* NBA ATS Play |

11-25-14 | Southeast Missouri State v. Bowling Green -7.5 | 54-62 | Win | 100 | 16 h 28 m | Show | |
Bowling Green -7.5 The Bowling Green Falcons will be one of the most improved teams in the MAC this year. The Falcons got a new coach this year who has a great history that comes with him. While Chris Jans hasn’t been a head coach, he has been an assistant at Wichita State and he was considered one of the top assistants in the land. The Falcons have a really nice nucleus of players, and a lot of them are veterans. A team that had many questions and was inexperienced in recent years is now experienced and ready to make a run. Southeast Missouri State plays in a much weaker league (Ohio Valley Conference) and they aren’t used to playing teams with as much athleticism and depth as Bowling Green. The Redhawks aren’t likely to be able to withstand the pressure from Bowling Green for 40 minutes. Take Bowling Green. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 7* CBB ATS Play |

11-23-14 | Denver Nuggets -2 v. Los Angeles Lakers | 101-94 | Win | 100 | 20 h 49 m | Show | |
The Los Angeles Lakers host the Denver Nuggets on Sunday evening. The Nuggets have turned things around in a big way after a rough start to the year. Denver had gone 1-6 before winning three in a row and four of its last five games. That stretch includes a pair of wins on the road. Now they visit a Lakers team that is returning home from a three-game road trip that saw the team play three games in four nights. The Lakers have been dreadful at the defensive end of the court, which is a terrible recipe for success against the Nuggets. Denver has scored 110.0 points per game over the course of its three-game winning streak, while the Lakers are allowing a league-high 112.5 points per game. The Nuggets are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings between these teams. Take Nuggets -2 Good Luck, Razor Ray Sunday 8* NBA ATS Play |

11-21-14 | Southern Illinois +4.5 v. Kent State | 51-74 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 55 m | Show | |
Southern Illinois +4.5 The Southern Illinois Salukis were a terrific team in the Missouri Valley Conference a few years ago. They have slipped back in recent years, but they are on the rise once again. Southern Illinois is a team I expect to surprise a lot of people this season. The Salukis have a good coach in Barry Hinson, and he has more talent to work with this season. Kent State is a team that is headed south in the Mid American Conference. The Golden Flashes were once the cream of the crop in the conference, but that’s no longer the case. Kent State skidded into the finish at the end of last year, while Southern Illinois finished with momentum. Look for the Salukis to come out of here with a straight up win. Grab the generous amount of points. Take Southern Illinois. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 9* NCAAB ATS Play |

11-18-14 | Michigan State v. Duke -7.5 | 71-81 | Win | 100 | 8 h 51 m | Show | |
Duke -7.5 The Michigan State Spartans are normally one of the best teams in the nation, but they lost a bunch of talent at the end of last year. Michigan State lost their top three scorers in Payne, Appling, and Harris. It’s going to be hard to replace those guys immediately. |
|||||||
11-14-14 | Weber State v. Utah State -1.5 | 61-72 | Win | 100 | 6 h 49 m | Show | |
Utah State -1.5 Many people are down on the Aggies this season because they only return one senior to the squad, but don't mix up lack of experience with lack of talent. Utah State is a talented squad and this is a very favorable price with them at home. Utah State always gets up for these opening tips, winning 15 of their 16 season openers under head coach Stew Morrill, including a perfect 8-0 mark at home. As mentioned above, the Aggies are youtful, but they definitely aren't void of talent. Freshman forward David Collette will be a big presence on the inside, while reports out of Utah suggest that sophomore forward Jalen Moore is ready to take a big step forward this season. Weber State enjoyed a run into the second round of the NCAA Tournament a year ago, where they were upended by Arizona, 68-59. This is a solid Wildcats team, but it's important to note that they did most of their damage at home a season ago. Weber State was 14-2 at home, but just 5-10 on the road last season. The Aggies are 16-5-1 ATS in their last 22 non-conference games and 15-6-2 ATS in their last 23 home games. Take Utah State. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play |

11-11-14 | Sacramento Kings v. Dallas Mavericks -7 | 98-106 | Win | 100 | 6 h 47 m | Show | |
Dallas Mavericks -6.5 (If you get it 8* Play) The Dallas Mavericks were beaten at home two days ago by the Miami Heat. That loss couldn’t have sat well with Dallas, and now that they’ve been able to sit back and think about that one, this looks like a good spot for them to bounce back. Sacramento is clearly an improved team, but they aren’t as improved as the oddsmakers believe right now. The Kings started to show that in their last game by losing on the road to an extremely short-handed Oklahoma City Thunder team. Sacramento is a team that has to outscore the opponent to win, and Dallas is a tough team outscore. The Mavericks will likely have one of the best offenses in the league again this year. They have so many scoring options that it is tough to shut everyone down. Parsons was a really nice addition to this team that was already very good. Remember, Dallas nearly knocked out the Spurs in the playoffs last year. Sacramento scores a lot of points because they put up a bunch of shots. They won’t get clean looks at the hoop nearly as often as Dallas does. The Mavericks have plenty of reason to be motivated here. Lay the number. Take Dallas. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-10-14 | New Orleans Pelicans +6 v. Cleveland Cavaliers | 111-118 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 50 m | Show | |
New Orleans +6 The Cavs are just 2-3 to begin the season and this new-look version of the team is facing the same issues that the Heat faced when the "Big Three" signed on in Miami. Talent alone isn't enough to win basketball games. The Cavaliers are stacked from top to bottom but there are clearly some major chemistry issues with this squad right now. Sure, the Cavs beat Denver last time out, but we can't simply ignore their losses to Utah and New York. The first month of the season will be a tough stretch for Cleveland, especially since they will be getting the very best effort out of every opponent that they face. New Orleans has taken a major step up from last season to this season. The Pelicans come in to this one off of back-to-back victories over the Bobcats and the Spurs, both of which saw them shoot roughly 47% from the field. New Orleans struggled to get things going early in the season, but their offense has found its form as of late. That's particularly troubling for a Cavs team that's allowed the lowly Knicks and Jazz to shoot above 50% from the field this season. This number is simply too big for our liking, in a game that we view as a tossup. The Pelicans are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games against Eastern Conference opponents. Take New Orleans. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play |

11-04-14 | Washington Wizards +1 v. New York Knicks | 98-83 | Win | 100 | 6 h 44 m | Show | |
New York Knicks +1 The New York Knicks host the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night. The Knicks are coming off a 96-93 win over Charlotte, while the Wizards beat Milwaukee their last time out, 108-97. Washington is simply the more balanced team here, even with Bradley Beal recovering from a broken wrist. The Wizards have gotten great contributions from their bench, and their big guns, Nene, Marcin Gortat, and John Wall have played like big guns in the early going. Washington's starters have outscored the Bucks and Magic 171-117 in two games. We're buying into the Wizards this season and we'll gladly grab them as an underdog, in a role where they should likely be favored. Take Washington. Good Luck, Razor Ray 8* Play |

11-01-14 | Chicago Bulls v. Minnesota Timberwolves +2.5 | 106-105 | Win | 100 | 6 h 44 m | Show | |
Timberwolves +2.5 At first glance, this would appear to be a short price with the Bulls, but there are so many factors working against them on Saturday that we're happy to get any underdog tag with the Timberwolves. Chicago played an extremely tough game last night, falling to the Cavs 114-108 in overtime. They now have to head out on the road to play a game on tired legs, and it wouldn't be surprising to see them fall flat after last night's emotional effort. To make matters worse, the Bulls are banged up. Derrick Rose left last night's game after spraining his ankle, and his status for tonight is still unclear. Even if Rose does play, he certainly won't be anywhere close to 100%. Taj Gibson also suffered an ankle sprain yesterday, and expressed concerns about it "blowing up overnight". Minnesota is coming off of a 97-91 victory over the Pistons on Thursday, but that score doesn't truly indicate how that game played out. The T'Wolves took their foot off the gas after building up a 19-point margin over Detroit. Minnesota only turned the ball over 12 times in that contest after Flip Saunders emphasized protection of the ball, following their 23 turnover performance in Game 1. The Bulls were outrebounded badly last night, which spells trouble on the inside against Nikola Pekovic. Take the T'Wolves. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play |

10-29-14 | Oklahoma City Thunder v. Portland Trail Blazers -8 | 89-106 | Win | 100 | 20 h 58 m | Show | |
Portland Trailblazers -8 The Oklahoma City Thunder will likely only have nine players available on Wednesday night. Everyone knows about the Kevin Durant injury, but he’s not the only key injury. Oklahoma City will be without Reggie Jackson, Mitch McGary, Anthony Morrow, and probably Jeremy Lamb as well. That means the Thunder will be really thin in the backcourt. While Russell Westbrook is obviously a good player, he sometimes forces things too much and it almost always hurts the team when he does this. Westbrook will basically be forced to push the issue without Durant and the rest of the cast around him, and that shouldn’t bring positive results. The Trailblazers had a great run last year. Portland started the season red hot last year, and I won’t be a bit surprised if they do the same thing again this season. Portland has a nice combination of young talent and veteran leadership on their squad. The Rose Garden is arguably the biggest home court advantage in the NBA. Oklahoma City is walking into a tough spot with a wounded and short-handed team. Portland is going to be pumped up for the opener too. They won’t look past Oklahoma City. Lay the points. Take Portland. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 7* NBA ATS Play |

06-10-14 | San Antonio Spurs +5 v. Miami Heat | 111-92 | Win | 100 | 6 h 8 m | Show | |
San Antonio +5 The Miami Heat host the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. Miami won Game 2 in the series on Sunday, 98-96. With Sunday’s win, the Heat have stolen home court advantage away from the Spurs, and that bodes well for their chances moving forward. The Heat have won a franchise record 11 straight postseason games at home. That fact surely won’t scare the Spurs. Looking back on it, the last team to win a playoff game in Miami was the Spurs. The Spurs were undone by a dynamic performance by one of the game’s best players of all time. Betting against LeBron James is hard, but betting against Gregg Popovich in a bounce back spot is just silly. Expect the Spurs to get off on the right foot on the road as they did a year ago. The Spurs are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games overall, while the Heat are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games following a win. Take San Antonio. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play |

05-28-14 | Miami Heat -2 v. Indiana Pacers | 90-93 | Loss | -103 | 23 h 39 m | Show | |
Miami Heat -2 The Indiana Pacers and Miami Heat head back to Bankers Life Fieldhouse for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals as the series shifts back to Indianapolis. The Heat took Game 4 in the series on Monday by a score of 102-90. Pacers head coach Frank Vogel said that the Heat’s domination of this series has his team’s confidence shaken. That was evident in Roy Hibbert’s stat line, as he appears to have lost whatever it was he re-found. The Heat certainly aren’t an opponent a team would want to square off with when their confidence is shaken. With all the talk of how important home court advantage would be in this series, the Heat would love to send the Pacers packing in their own barn. The team already has a win at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in this series, and they’ll surely want to end this series early after the Pacers gave them so much trouble a year ago. The Heat are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall, while the Pacers are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games. Take Miami. Good Luck, Razor Ray 8* Play |

05-20-14 | Miami Heat -2 v. Indiana Pacers | Top | 87-83 | Win | 100 | 25 h 20 m | Show |
Miami Heat -2 The Indiana Pacers and Miami Heat will continue the Eastern Conference Finals at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indiana on Tuesday night. The Pacers took the opener in the series quite handily, claiming a 107-96 decision on May 20. The Pacers really stepped out of our usual expectations for them by playing a strong offensive game in Game 1, coming away with a win despite a subpar performance by their standards at the defensive end. The Pacers shot 51.5 percent from the field and 42.1 percent from beyond the arc in the contest, getting a little help from the officials with 37 trips to the charity stripe. The Pacers were able to utilize a strong inside-outside game at the offensive end, and while they were able to have plenty of success with it in Game 1, don’t be surprised if the Heat make some serious adjustments to slow them down in Game 2. The Heat are in a prime bounce-back spot here, and come in at a very favorable number. The Pacers are 3-15 ATS in their last 18 contests following a game in which they scored 100 or more points, and they are 5-14 ATS in their last 19 home games. With this game presenting unique edges in a prime situation, we’ll gladly bump this up to our top rating. Take Miami. Good Luck, Razor Ray 10* Play |

Miami Heat -2.5 The Indiana Pacers and Miami Heat will open the Eastern Conference Finals on Sunday afternoon. The two sides have taken very different paths to the conference finals, with the Heat brushing off the Bobcats and Nets, while the Pacers needed seven games to get past the Hawks, then let the Wizards bring them to a sixth game. The Heat are just playing at a whole different level than the Pacers right now. Indiana was able to step up their game and down the Wizards, but Miami presents an entirely different test, and the Pacers could be in for a rude awakening in this one. After the Hawks and Wizards each took the series opener from the Pacers on their home court, there is little reason to believe the Heat won’t do the same. The Pacers are 17-37-1 ATS in their last 55 games overall, while the Heat are 4-0 ATS in their last four games played on three or more days rest. Take Miami. Good Luck, Razor Ray 9* Play |

The Thunder are coming off a 105-104 win in Game 5 of the series. A motivated Clippers squad will surely be on the court on Thursday after the circumstances in which they came to lose Game 5, and they will have a friendly home crowd behind them. Point guard Chris Paul had a poor game on Tuesday, and you can be sure the All-Star will bounce back with a big game in front of the Clipper faithful. As for the Thunder, they barely scraped past the Clippers on their home court despite a poor game from the Los Angeles side. Now they have to travel and play Game 6 on the road, which doesn't bode well for their chances in this one. The Thunder found themselves down by double-digits again in Game 5, and the Clippers surely won't give up another big lead on their home court. The Thunder are 3-7 in their last 10 conference semifinal games. Take Los Angeles. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play |

San Antonio Spurs -4 The Portland Trail Blazers host the San Antonio Spurs on Monday night in Game 4 of their second round postseason series. The Spurs are coming off a 118-103 win in Game 3 of the series on Saturday. The Spurs have simply been rolling along now, finding another gear since falling behind 2-1 to the Dallas Mavericks, going 6-1 since then, including four consecutive wins. The Blazers simply have no answer for the Spurs' offense, as they defense has had no answer for a Spurs offense that is scoring 116.0 points per game in this series. It all starts with point guard Tony Parker, who has been on the top of his game since recovering from an ankle injury that plagued him in the Mavericks series. Damian Lillard can certainly score the basketball, but he is one of the worst defenders in basketball, and that has allowed Parker to do what he wants int his series. The Spurs have won the three games by an average margin of 18.7 points. The Spurs are 3-0 ATS in this series. Take San Antonio. Good Luck, Razor Ray 9* Play on San Antonio Spurs -4 |

The Pacers are coming off a 95-88 win over the Hawks in Game 6 of the The Pacers are still riding on their reputation, as the public has yet to make the proper adjustment to what state this team is in right now. Their struggles have been detailed at length by many outlets. The team simply has no business giving this many points away to an underrated Hawks side. The lone edge the Pacers seem to have entering this contest is that they get it at home, but a simple look at this series shows that the Hawks have taken two of three at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in this series. This one should at least go down to the wire, and it wouldn't be surprising to see the road side come out on top in this one.

The Grizzlies won Game 5 in the series on Tuesday to take a 3-2 series lead. The Grizzlies knocked the Thunder out of the playoffs a year ago, and it seems the team has their number again this year. The Grizzlies have made all the right adjustments in this series, just as they did a year ago. The Thunder now have their backs against the wall, and that's going to mean trouble in a tough environment on Thursday night. The Grizzlies have won 15 of their last 16 home games, playing in front of one of the loudest home crowds in basketball. The team has won three of the four games between these teams played on their home court over the last two seasons.

Atlanta Hawks +7 The Indiana Pacers host the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night in Game 5 of their opening round playoff series. Indiana is coming off a 91-88 win in Game 4 of the series on Saturday. The Hawks have looked every bit the part of Goliath-killer in this series, with guard Jeff Teague really coming into his own as the series has progressed. The Pacers, meanwhile, haven’t looked like the team that claimed the East’s top seed, and that largely has to do with the regression of Roy Hibbert, who has taken a major step back, with reports indicating he may have suffered a concussion towards the end of March. Saturday’s Game 4 went right down to the wire, despite a major shooting discrepancy. The Pacers shot 48.1 percent from the floor, while the Hawks shot just 35.7 percent, yet the Pacers still needed some big three-pointers down the stretch to eke out a win. Expect a regression back towards the mean in this one. The Hawks are 5-1 ATS in their last six road games, while the Pacers are 3-10 AS in their last 13 home games. Take Atlanta.

Memphis is coming off a 98-95 win in Game 3 of this series on Thursday night, giving the team a 2-1 series lead. The Grizzlies seem to have things trending in the same direction as last year's playoff series between these teams, when they lost Game 1, then came back to win each of the next four games to win the series. The Grizzlies dropped Game 1 in this year's series, and now have back-to-back wins. Notably, the team absolutely dominated in the first 40 minutes of Game 3, but their late collapse allows us to get in on this one at a very fair number. The Grizzlies have won 15 home games in a row, and there's no reason to think that another late collapse is in the cards, as the team should have things figured out by the time they throw the ball up on this one. The Grizzlies are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 home games, while the Thunder are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 road games. Take Memphis. Good Luck, Razor Ray 8* Play on Memphis Grizzlies +3 |

Indiana Pacers -2 The Atlanta Hawks host the Indiana Pacers on Thursday night in Game 3 of their opening round playoff series. Indiana is coming off a win in Game 2, 101-85. The Pacers enter the postseason as the East's top seed, yet they give away just two points in this one. The Pacers dropped off significantly down the stretch, even giving away Game 1, and endured some tough media reports on Wednesday. With all that said, the Pacers showed more than enough in Game 2 to lead us to believe they have turned things around for the better, and are set to go on a run, and we are more than happy to get in on the ground floor. The biggest changes for the Pacers took place at the defensive end of the court. The team finally made adjustments to the Hawks' pick-and-roll, namely, they had Roy Hibbert move away from the basket to cover his man, and that gave the Hawks fits. Expect more strong adjustments from the East's top seed as they prove their worth. The favorite is 26-10-1 ATS in the last 37 meetings between these teams. Take Indiana.

Houston Rockets -6 The Houston Rockets host the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday night. Portland won Game 1 in the series in overtime on Sunday, 122-120.
Â
LaMarcus Aldridge took over for the Trail Blazers in Game 1, in a game in which he was mostly guarded by Terrence Jones. That allowed him to post a career-playoff high in scoring. This time around, the Rockets can be expected to do a better job of defending their own basket. The team now faces a virtual must-win on their home court, and it is tough to envision the team not giving forth an A-effort in this one.
Â
Dwight Howard has said he plans to spend more time covering Aldridge, while also taking more control at the offensive end after controlling the paint at the offensive end to the tune of 27 points and 15 total rebounds in Game 1. Expect the Rockets to show up with a better game plan in Game 2 than they did in Game 1.

The Trail Blazers are 1-7-1 ATS in their last nine conference quarterfinals games.

Â
We were very active in backing the Grizzlies in the postseason a year ago, and we are going right back to that well with a woefully underseeded squad this year. Marc Gasol is the key here. In the games he missed, Memphis compiled a 10-13 record. By the time he returned to the lineup from the knee injury that sidelined him for 23 games, the Grizzlies were 17-19 and on the outside looking in of the Western Conference playoff picture.
Â
Upon his return, the Grizzlies hit the ground running, winning nine of 10, and closing the year on a five-game winning streak to clinch a playoff spot. The Grizzlies compiled a 33-13 record over their final 46 games of the season, good for a .717 winning percentage, which would have placed them third in the Western Conference had they maintained that mark over the course of the entire season.
Â
Now they get a Thunder team that they beat in the postseason a year ago, winning that series in only five games. The lone game they lost was by just two points.

The Grizzlies are 6-2-1 ATS in the last nine meetings between these teams.Â

The Minnesota Timberwolves host the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night. Minnesota is coming off a 110-91 win over San Antonio, while Chicago beat Washington its last time out, 96-78. The Bulls are laser-focused right now, and we’re glad to get behind them at a reasonable price. Chicago has beaten each of its last four opponents by double-digits, and comes to town having won five in a row. Looking further back, Chicago has held 12 of its last 13 opponents under 100 points, limiting opponents to 88.4 points per game over the course of their five-game winning streak. As for the Timberwolves, they’ll be confident entering this matchup, having beaten San Antonio in their last game, and beating Chicago the last time these teams met. However, the win over San Antonio makes this a pretty good let down spot, while that win over Chicago came more than two months ago, and the Bulls were without Joakim Noak or Kirk Hinrich for that matchup. The Bulls are 5-0 ATS in their last five trips to Minnesota. Take Chicago. Good Luck, Razor Ray 9* Play on Chicago Bulls -2.5 |

The Wisconsin Badgers played in the toughest league in the nation this year. The Big Ten had a bunch of very good teams, so the Badgers are absolutely very well battle tested coming into this game. Kentucky and Florida are elite teams in the SEC, but the rest of the league wasn’t any good. Bo Ryan is finally in his first Final Four, and Ryan is one of the best coaches in the country. Every year he has this Badgers team playing tremendous basketball despite having far less talent than most of the teams around them. This year the Badgers have more talent than normal, and that has led to this Final Four berth. Wisconsin plays with a ton of discipline, and that means a lot in games that are as important as this one. It would be easy to freak out and make silly mistakes, but that’s far less likely to happen to a team like the Badgers. Kentucky has been exceptional in the NCAA Tournament, but this is still a very young team. The Wildcats are prone to turning the ball over too often, and that won’t work against a team like Wisconsin. Bo Ryan will have a great game plan ready for this one, and I expect it to frustrate the youngsters. This Wisconsin team is disciplined and dangerous. Take Wisconsin.

The Atlanta Hawks host the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday. Atlanta is coming off a 105-92 win over Chicago, while Cleveland beat Orlando its last time out, 119-98. The collapse of the Hawks this season has been painful to watch. The team has dropped seven of its last eight games, and 21 of its last 28 games. It really hasn't been pretty. The team also hasn't been very friendly to bettors, going 5-22-1 ATS in those 28 games. As for the Cavaliers, they've been trending in the opposite direction. Cleveland has wins in five of its last six games, with three of those wins coming on the road. They've also gone 8-1 ATS in their last nine games overall. While Atlanta's lone win in their last eight games came against lowly Philadelphia, Cleveland has wins over playoff-bound Indiana and Toronto in the last 10 days. Getting Kyrie Irving back is a big boost to the team as they prepare to go on a run, as Irving went 7-for-8 from the field in the team's win over Orlando on Wednesday. The Cavaliers are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games. Take Cleveland. Good Luck, Razor Ray 9* Play |

The New York Knicks host the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday evening. The Nets are coming off a 105-96 victory over the Rocekts on Tuesday night, securing a playoff spot in the East. With this being the second night of a back-to-back situation, Brooklyn is primed for a letdown. The Nets are just 5-11 in the second game of a back-to-back this season and they may not bring their A-game here after clinching a postseason birth. Meanwhile, the Knicks are playing their best basketball of the season. New York has won 11 of their last 14 games to climb within one game of Atlanta for the Eastern Conference's final playoff spot. It's safe to say that this game is the most important game of the year for New York. Most impressively for New York is that they won 3 of the 5 games on their recent West Coast road trip; a feat that has been difficult for Eastern Conference teams to achieve this season. The Knicks are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 home games following a road trip of 7 or more days. Take New York. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play on New York Knicks -2 |

The Kentucky Wildcats have absolutely made an impressive run through the NCAA Tournament thus far, but I feel like Michigan is being overlooked a bit here by bettors and the oddsmakers. The Wolverines won the Big Ten Conference, and the Big Ten has proven to be the best college basketball league in the nation this year. Kentucky upset both Wichita State and Louisville, but the Wildcats won’t be at full strength in this one. Cauley-Stein is the team’s primary center, and he is expected to miss this game due to an injury. Without him, the Wildcats don’t have as big of an advantage on the boards as they otherwise would have. Michigan has a plethora of outside shooters, and that was on full display in their win over Tennessee on Friday night. The Wolverines have consistently been a top notch team over the past few couple months. Michigan has played one of the toughest schedules in the country this year, and they are very battle tested. While I’ve been super impressed with the Wildcats play over the last couple weeks, I also believe that this line is inflated based on their last two games. Michigan has proven they are a top team all year, while Kentucky hasn’t. Take Michigan. Good Luck, Razor Ray. 7* Play On Michigan +2.5 |

We've been eager to fade the Pacers given their poor recent play of late, and have been very successful in doing so, and with Indiana in a major letdown spot, we'll go right back to that well here. As for Washington, their won/loss record of late isn't great, but the team just endured a long stretch of road games. A closer look shows the team has performed quite well when the schedule's been in their favor, as it is on this night.

The team will fly right to Oklahoma City after this game, with a date against the Thunder on Monday, then a game in San Antonio on Wednesday. The team also has games against Houston, Memphis, and Golden State on deck. As for Washington, John Wall is at the top of his game right now, dishing out 28 assists over the last two games, and is hitting on 50 percent of his shots from beyond the arc in the month of March. Getting Marcin Gortat back from injury helped in a big way in their last game, as he contributed a double-double in the team's win over the Lakers.

The Grizzlies sit just 1.5 games ahead of the Suns for the final playoff spot in the West, and they can ill afford to take the lowly Jazz lightly in this one. With the motivational factor working in their favor, the Grizz should be able to beat up on a putrid Jazz squad. Utah has lost five straight games and 10 of their last 11 overall. Seven of those 11 losses have come by double-digits, including back-to-back blowout losses in San Antonio and Houston. The Jazz have lost their last 10 games by an average margin of 16.3 points. Meanwhile, Memphis continues to play quality ball, winning five of their last six games. The Grizzlies have won their last three home games by double-digits, including an impressive 10-point victory over Portland. Memphis will love seeing Utah come to town as they've won seven of their last eight home games against the Jazz, allowing just 90.9 points per game in those eight contests.

Oklahoma City -2.5
The Chicago Bulls host the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night. We cashed a ticket playing against the Thunder on Sunday, but we're going to reverse our course of action on Monday. Oklahoma City was in a terrible spot against Dallas on Sunday evening, especially without the services of Russell Westbrook, who is expected to be back tonight. The Thunder will be ready to go after getting embarrassed at home. Chicago has been strong as of late, but we can't help but believe they're starting to become overvalued. The Bulls can play elite defense but they still can't be trusted to score consistently. Chicago averages just 93.4 points per game; a full seven points lower than the league average. The Bulls have been getting by with their defense but they haven't been able to slow the Thunder down in recent meeting. Oklahoma City put up 107 points on Chicago in December with both Kevin Durant and the aforementioned Westbrook putting up huge numbers. In fact, the Thunder have shot almost 48% in their past four meetings against Chicago. Some people may believe this is a tough spot for the Thunder, having played yesterday, but they're 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 0 days rest. The Thunder are also 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games following a double-digit loss at home. Take Oklahoma City. Good Luck, Razor Ray 8* Play on Oklahoma City Thunder -2.5 |

Charlotte -2.5
The Charlotte Bobcats host the Atlanta Hawks on Monday evening. Atlanta's recent run of success has them extremely overvalued in this contest. The Hawks have won three straight games, defeating the Jazz, Bucks, and Nuggets; three teams with a combined winning percentage of .320. Prior to these three victories, the Hawks had lost 14 of their last 15 games overall. The Hawks have dominated the Bobcats in recent years, but none of those games actually matter. Atlanta was a different team with Al Horford in the lineup, but there's a huge void in the middle without him. The Hawks are 14-22 without Horford this season. Meanwhile, Charlotte continues to play solid ball. The Bobcats have won eight straight games at home, which is a huge advantage against a Hawks squad that's lost 10 of their last 11 away from home. The Bobcats are playing the second half of a back-to-back but with each game being so important in the Eastern Conference playoff race, we can count on them to show up tonight. The Hawks are 7-18-1 ATS in their last 26 road games. The Bobcats are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 home games. Take Charlotte. Good Luck, Razor Ray 8* Play on Charlotte Bobcats -2.5 |

Dallas +8
The Oklahoma City Thunder host the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday. Oklahoma City is coming off a 131-102 win over the Lakers, while the Mavericks beat Utah their last time out, 108-101. The Mavericks are running out of time in their effort to clinch a playoff spot in the West, with Memphis and Phoenix breathing down their necks. The Mavericks know they need to win just about every game in front of them, and we'll surely get an A-effort from the team on this night. Dallas has won three of its last four games, including victories over Portland and Indiana. As for Oklahoma City, a big margin of victory in a win over the Lakers isn't going to solve any of their problems. The team is just 5-5 in its last 10 games, and isn't in the kind of form that they should be giving away this many points to anyone. With a trip to Chicago on deck, they'll surely look to rest their starters if given the opportunity, and get out of town as soon as possible. The Mavericks are 16-5-1 ATS in their last 22 trips to play the Thunder franchise. Take Dallas. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play |

The Michigan State Spartans lost two times this year to the Michigan Wolverines. Michigan edged them in overtime in East Lansing, and then beat the Spartans by 9 at Ann Arbor late in the season.

It tells us that the oddsmakers are high on Michigan State, and they are high on this team for a very good reason. Tom Izzo |

Utah +7.5
The Utah Utes have been underrated all year long. Utah is one of the top five teams in the nation when it comes to covering the number so far this year. This is one of the most improved teams in the nation this season. The oddsmakers are really struggling to keep up with them. Utah lost by 9 at Arizona the first time they played, and then lost in OT at home to Arizona. Utah was tied with ten minutes left in the game at Arizona, and they led and had great chances to win in their home game vs. Utah. Clearly, the Utes can compete with a very good Arizona team. Utah is on the outside of the bubble right now, but if they can win this game, they might have a chance to get into the NCAA Tournament. I think they have quite a bit more to play for than Arizona does in this Pac-12 Tournament. Motivation is key in these tournaments. This should be a grind it out defensive game where both teams have to work very hard on the offensive end. In a game like that, getting this many points is a great way to go. Take Utah. Good Luck, Razor Ray. 9* Play On Utah +7.5 |

LA Clippers -6.5
The Los Angeles Clippers host the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night. The Clippers are coming off a 112-105 win over the Suns, while the Warriors beat the Mavericks their last time out, 108-85. The Clippers have been in fine form of late, and power forward Blake Griffin deserves a lot of the credit for that, scoring 20 or more points in 23 straight games. The Clippers haven't just been winning of late - they've been dominating. The team has won eight in a row, with those wins coming by an average margin of 15.6 points. Griffin will be looking to take some frustration out on the Warriors after fouling out of the team's last game. The Warriors will surely have trouble keeping up with him as they play on the second night of a back-to-back, particularly playing on the road. The home side has won six in a row in this series, covering the spread in five of those games. The Clippers are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games against Western Conference opponents. Take Los Angeles. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play on Los Angeles Clippers -6.5 |

Houston -4
The Houston Rockets battle the Indiana Pacers on Thursday night. On paper, this looks like a riveting matchup, but the truth is that these teams are headed in opposite directions right now. The Pacers have lost back-to-back games, and are just 13-8 in their last 21 games. What's even less impressive is that the Pacers last five victories have come against the Jazz, Celtics, Lakers, and Bucks (twice), with three of those games being decided late in the fourth quarter. The Pacers allowed 88.3 points per game in their first 40 games this season, but have allowed 97.9 points per game since then. That doesn't bode well for them against a Rockets team that averages a whopping 106.3 points per game, 5.6 points per game more than the league average. Houston has been dominating Eastern Conference opponents all season long. The Rockets are a perfect 13-0 at home against the East, including a victory over the Heat on Tuesday. James Harden and Dwight Howard are playing very good ball, and the Rockets continue to get a significant contribution from Terrence Jones. The Pacers are just 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 games overall, and are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games. Take Houston. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play on Houston Rockets -4 |

The Boston Celtics host the Brooklyn Nets on Friday night. Boston is coming off a 108-88 loss to Golden State, while Brooklyn beat Memphis their last time out, 103-94. The Nets come to town having won four games in a row, including great wins over a streaking Bulls team and a hard charging Grizzlies squad. Meanwhile, the Celtics have dropped seven of their last eight games overall, including four of their last five at home. The Nets aren't giving away nearly as many points as they should given the current form of the teams. Additionally, the Nets have won each of the last three meetings between the teams, and are 5-1 in the last six meetings. The Nets climbed over .500 in their last game, needing 59 games to get there, and after working as hard as they did to get there, they won't want to give it away against the lowly Celtics. The Nets are 11-1 ATS in their last 12 games played on regular rest, and they are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 trips to Boston. Take Brooklyn. Good Luck, Razor Ray 9* Play on Brooklyn Nets -4 |

Charlotte -4.5
The Charlotte Bobcats host the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night. Charlotte is coming off a 109-87 win over Indiana, while Cleveland dropped their last game against San Antonio, 122-101. The Bobcats may have looked to have hit a bit of a rough patch prior to their last win, but a closer look shows those losses came more as a result of circumstance, which is what allows us to get in at a favorable number in this one. The Bobcats may have lost three games in a row, but those games were all on the road, in San Antonio, in Oklahoma City, and in Miami. With a win over Indiana in their last game, no one could really argue that coming out with one win in four games against the four best teams in basketball isn't a success. Prior to those four games, the Bobcats had won four in a row, and we expect them to get another winning streak going on Friday against a Cavaliers team that has lost five of its last seven games, and hasn't been able to put up much of a fight on the road this season. The Bobcats are 5-0-1 ATS in their last six home games. Take Charlotte. Good Luck, Razor Ray 8* Play on Charlotte Bobcats -4.5 |

The George Mason Patriots went through a really rough stretch in the middle of the season, but they are playing much better of late. George Mason has plenty of talent, but team chemistry has been an issue for much of the season. They have gotten it together in the last couple weeks. George Mason is a very good offensive team, and they have been shooting it at 40% from long range in the past two weeks. George Mason will put up plenty of points against a LaSalle team that has struggled on the defensive end all season. LaSalle made a run to the Sweet 16 last year, but this year |

The Indiana Pacers play host to the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night. Golden State has lost two of their last three games and that allows for us to grab a good line with the Warriors here. Golden State is one of the league's best teams in terms of rebounding after a loss. The Warriors have won their last six games following a loss, covering the spread in each of those games. They haven't lost back-to-back games since late January. Indiana has won five straight games, but we haven't been impressed with their recent performances. The Pacers have beaten the Bucks, Celtics, and Jazz by a combined 13 points in their last three contests. Their last six games have come against non-playoff teams, and to make matters worse, Paul George and George Hill are both banged up entering Tuesday's contest. The Pacers are 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall and just 3-8 ATS in their last 11 vs. Western Conference opponents.

North Carolina is coming off a 60-56 win over Virginia Tech, while Notre Dame fell to Pittsburgh in its last game, 85-81. The Irish get this game just two days removed from a disappointing overtime loss against rival Pitt on its home floor. The Irish are one of the more popular public plays, which usually affords us an opportunity to fade them at a reasonable number, as is the case here. The Irish could get run out of the gym against the Tar Heels in this one, arriving in bad form with wins in just three of their last eight games. The Tar Heels aren |

The Toronto Raptors host the Golden State Warriors on Sunday afternoon. This is a terrible scheduling spot for Golden State. The Warriors began a six-game East Coast road trip on Monday and will be playing their fourth game of the week against Toronto. To make matters worse, the schedule makers haven't done the Warriors and favors with a 4 PM ET start time, which is essentially a 1:00 start for a West Coast team. Meanwhile, the Raptors haven't taken the court since Thursday and will be well rested for this contest. Toronto suffered a couple of scares on Thursday when Terrence Ross and Kyle Lowry both went down with ankle injuries, but both are expected to play on Sunday. The Raptors have allowed 119.3 points per game against the Warriors with Stephen Curry in the lineup, but this Raptors squad is different from that of years past. This is a team that prides itself on playing strong defense. Toronto, under the guidance of defensive head coach Dwayne Casey, allows just 97.1 point per game; well below the league average of 100.5 The Warriors are 0-4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a win of more than 10 points. The Raptors are 22-9-1 ATS in their last 32 games overall and 10-3-1 ATS in their last 14 games following a loss. Take Toronto. Good Luck, Razor Ray 8* Play on Toronto Raptors +2 |

The Sacramento Kings host the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday. The Kings had been playing some solid basketball, but they've fallen off since. Center DeMarcus Cousins showed in the team's game against Houston that his mind is elsewhere now, and with the team travelling on the second night of a back-to-back to get to this one, it's going to be hard to expect an A-effort from the Kings. As for the Timberwolves. They've really found their game of late, winning four of their last five, including victories over Indiana and Phoenix, with their lone loss coming at Portland. Star forward Kevin Love in particular has stepped up his game. He's been on fired in the month of February, averaging 34.0 points with 14.1 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game. The team can also be expected to continue their winning ways on the road as they've won two of three there, and the road team has won two of the last three in the series between these teams. The Timberwolves are 11-1 ATS in their last 12 road games against teams with a losing home record. Take Minnesota. Good Luck, Razor Ray 7* Play on Minnesota Timberwolves -3.5 |

Wake Forest -2
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons have been very good at home this year. Boston College has one signature win all season, and that was their amazing win at Syracuse. Other than that, Boston College has accomplished very little against any team with a pulse. Wake Forest and Boston College are fairly even teams in terms of talent, but I like the fact that Wake Forest works hard on the defensive end. This Boston College team gives the opposition an easy bucket just about every time down the floor. Their defensive numbers are just terrible this year. Wake Forest went through an ugly stretch recently where they looked bad, but that was against quality competition. They bounced back with a nice win at home against a pretty good Clemson team this week. Boston College has gone right back to playing bad basketball after beating Syracuse. A lot of people saw the Boston College win over Syracuse, and that has the perception of this team too high in my opinion. Wake Forest is a team on the rise and they are still a bit undervalued by the oddsmakers. Wake Forest should be favored by several points more than this. Take Wake Forest.
