02-14-17 | Cavs -3.5 v. Wolves | Top | 116-108 | Win | 100 | 21 h 48 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Cleveland Cavaliers will visit the Minnesota Timberwolves Tuesday night, and my money is on the visitors in this matchup. The Cavs defeated the Wolves 125-97 home at Cleveland back on Feb. 1, and they're 8-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings at Target Center. Minnesota has won two of its last three games and the Wolves are coming off a 117-89 rout of the Bulls, but keep in mind that they're  0-7 ATS in their last seven games following a straight up win. The Cavs are playing great basketball at the moment and should have no trouble to take care of business tonight. |

02-13-17 | Thunder v. Wizards -5 | 98-120 | Win | 100 | 13 h 48 m | Show | |
NBA 3-Pack The Washington Wizards are 8-2 ATS as a home favorite of 3.5-6.0 points on the season, and tonight they'll be looking to revenge a 126-115 OT loss at Oklahoma City earlier in the season. The Thunder took a 130-114 beating by the Warriors on Saturday and they're just 2-5 ATS in their last seven games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. The Thunder are 4-9 ATS in the last 13 meetings at Verizon Center and this looks like a good spot to back the home team. |
|||||||
02-13-17 | 76ers +8.5 v. Hornets | 105-99 | Win | 100 | 12 h 41 m | Show | |
NBA 3-Pack The Philadelphia 76ers have been great against the spread lately, and here they'll face a Charlotte Hornets side that is 1-9-1 ATS in its last 11 games overall. The 76ers snapped a six-game losing streak in the series with a 102-93 home win over Charlotte on Jan. 13, and I would not be surprised to see them threaten to win this contest outright as well. |
|||||||
02-12-17 | Pistons v. Raptors -6.5 | 102-101 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 21 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Toronto Raptors have played far from their best basketball lately, but I think they'll come out strong following three days off since a 112-109 setback at Minnesota on Wednesday. The Raptors are 7-2 ATS in their last nine games playing on three or more days rest, and tonight they'll host the Detroit Pistons who are 2-7 ATS in their last nine games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Toronto won the most recent matchup 109-91 back in October, and I think they'll take care of business again tonight. |
|||||||
02-11-17 | Celtics +5 v. Jazz | Top | 112-104 | Win | 100 | 25 h 45 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *LATE SHOW* The Boston Celtics are coming off a 120-11 win at Portland, despite closing as a 3-point dog. They're getting even more points here at Utah Saturday night, and I like the Celtics big time in this matchup. Boston is 10-3-2 ATS in its last 15 road games vs. a team with a winning home record while the Jazz are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games. We can also note that Utah fell 112-105 in OT at Dallas on Thursday and the Jazz are just 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games following a straight up loss. The Celtics are 8-2-2 ATS in the last 12 meetings and I think they'll threaten to win this outright, but take the points as an insurance. |
|||||||
02-11-17 | Gonzaga -4 v. St. Mary's | 74-64 | Win | 100 | 13 h 59 m | Show | |
CBB *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Gonzaga Bulldogs are a perfect 25-0 SU on the season and 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games as a road favorite of 0.5-6.5 points. On Saturday they'll visit the St. Mary's Gaels who are 22-2 SU on the season, but only 1-4 ATS in their last five games as an underdog of 0.5-6.5 points. The Bulldogs are 10-1 against the spread in their last 11 meetings with the Gaels, and I predict a double-digit blowout in this contest. |

02-10-17 | Warriors -7.5 v. Grizzlies | Top | 122-107 | Win | 100 | 20 h 32 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA West *GAME OF THE WEEK* The Golden State Warriors bounced back from Saturday's 109-106 OT loss at Sacramento by routing the Bulls 123-92 two days ago. Tonight they'll be looking to revenge a 128-119 OT home loss to the Memphis Grizzlies on January 6, and they also lost the first meeting of the season here at FedExForum. The Warriors are excellent at executing revenge, and we should also note that this contest marks Kevin Durant's first trip back to Oklahoma City so he'll surely have himself and the team fired up. The Warriors are 3-1 ATS when revenging a home loss vs. an opponent on the season and 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games overall. The Grizzlies have won six of their last seven, including an 89-74 win against San Antonio earlier this week, but I fully expect the Warriors to run away with this game. |
|||||||
02-10-17 | Nuggets +2.5 v. Knicks | 131-123 | Win | 100 | 10 h 53 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Denver Nuggets are coming off a 117-106 loss at Atlanta, but they're 4-0 ATS in their last four games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points and 7-1 ATS in their last eight games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Tonight they'll visit a 22-32 New York Knicks side that has failed to cover the spread in four of its last five games, and Joakim Noah sat out Wednesday's 119-115 loss to the Clippers with a hamstring injury and reportedly could miss the next three games. The Nuggets are 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings in the series, and I'm happy to take the points on the visitors in this matchup. Â |
|||||||
02-09-17 | Cavs v. Thunder -2.5 | 109-118 | Win | 100 | 12 h 15 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Pacers 132-117 at Indiana last night. They're expected to rest "the big three" here on the second night of a back-to-back, and then you simply gotta give the advantage to a Thunder squad that is 7-1 ATS in its last eight home at Chesapeake Energy Arena. I don't see OKC holding anything back as its looking to revenge a 107-91 loss at Cleveland on January 29. Let's go with the Thunder here. |
|||||||
02-09-17 | Rockets -3.5 v. Hornets | Top | 107-95 | Win | 100 | 20 h 50 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA East vs. West *GAME OF THE MONTH* The Charlotte Hornets had dropped seven on the bounce prior to a 111-107 win against the lowly Nets on Tuesday. They're 1-7-1 ATS in their last nine games overall, and here they'll take on a Houston team that is playing better ball again after a disappointing month of January. The Rockets are coming off a 128-104 thrashing of the Magic, and they're 18-7 ATS when playing against a team with a losing record on the season. Houston superstar James Harden went off for 40 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists in a 121-114 home win over Charlotte on Jan. 10, and I don't think the Hornets will have an answer for him or the rest of the Rockets tonight either. |
|||||||
02-08-17 | Heat +3.5 v. Bucks | Top | 106-88 | Win | 100 | 21 h 37 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Milwaukee Bucks had dropped five in a row prior to a 137-112 win at Phoenix on Saturday. They're just 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game though and I think they'll come up short here against a red hot Miami side. The Heat are playing excellent basketball right now, coming off 11 straight wins and they're 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games overall. Miami won't keep winning forever (obviously), but I don't think the Bucks will be the team to beat them in the state they're in at the moment. The fact that we're getting points on the visitors is just a bonus. |
|||||||
02-05-17 | Blazers v. Thunder -4.5 | Top | 99-105 | Win | 100 | 14 h 39 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* Blazers/Thunder *BEST BET* The Oklahoma City Thunder will host the Portland Trail Blazers Sunday afternoon, and I think this looks like a good spot for the home team. The Thunder snapped a three-game skid with a 114-102 win as a 1-point underdog against Memphis on Friday to improve to 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games. They're 7-1 ATS in their last 8 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400 and should be able to handle a Trail Blazers team that is 8-18 SU on the road. The Thunder will be looking to revenge a 114-95 loss at Portland back in December, and they had covered the spread in four straight meetings prior to that contest. Lay the points on the home team. |
|||||||
02-02-17 | Gonzaga -8.5 v. BYU | 85-75 | Win | 100 | 11 h 5 m | Show | |
Late Night CBB The Gonzaga Bulldogs will visit Brigham Young Cougars Thursday night, and I think we'll see a blowout win for the visitors. Gonzaga is a perfect 22-0 SU on the season and 7-1 ATS in its last eight road games. The Zags routed Pepperdine 96-49 on the road on Saturday and are 6-0 ATS in their last six games after scoring more than 90 points in their previous game. They'll face a BYU team that has won three of its last four, but failed to cover the 11-point spread in a 85-77 home win against LSU on Saturday. The Cougars are 1-5 ATS in their last six games following a straight up win and 0-5 ATS in their last five games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. I don't like their chances in this matchup. |
|||||||
02-02-17 | Lakers v. Wizards -11 | Top | 108-116 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 49 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA Lakers/Wizards *BEST BET* No team is hotter in the NBA than the Washington Wizards as they've won 12 of their last 14 games, averaging 111 points during that span. They easily dismissed the Knicks 117-101 at home Tuesday to make it 15 straight wins at Verizon Center, and they're 5-0 ATS in their last five games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. The LA Lakers are coming off a dramatic 120-116 home win against Denver on Tuesday, but they're just 2-6 in their last eight on the road and 4-7 ATS off a home win on the season. Washington is 15-6 ATS as a home favorite on the season, and I think the Wizards will take care of business here and win big. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Florida State +3 v. Miami (Fla) | 75-57 | Win | 100 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |
CBB *BANKROLL BUILDER* The Florida State Seminoles will be looking to find their way back into the win column after back-to-back defeats as favorites at Georgia Tech and Syracuse. They're on the road again Wednesday night, but at least back home in Florida and they're 6-2 ATS in their last eight games as a road underdog of 0.5-6.5 points. They'll take on a Miami-Florida Hurricanes team that is coming off back-to-back wins and upset North Carolina 77-62 as a 5.5-point dog their last time out. Let down spot here, and they're 0-4 ATS in their last four games as a favorite of 0.5-6.5 points. The underdog is 5-1-1 ATS in the last seven meetings, and I'm taking the points on the Seminoles in this contest. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Raptors v. Celtics -5.5 | 104-109 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 10 m | Show | |
NBA 3-Pack The Boston Celtics are playing well at the moment, and they head into this contest looking for their first five-game winning streak of the season. They're coming off a 113-109 home win against Detroit on Monday and are 8-2-2 ATS in their last 12 games playing on one days rest. They'll host a Toronto Raptors squad that won 108-106 in overtime against New Orleans last night, the Raptors mere second win in their last eight games. Boston will be looking to revenge a 114-106 loss at Toronto on January 10, and I think the Celtics will come through with a big performance tonight. Home team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings in the series and the Raptors are 4-10-1 ATS in the last 15 meetings in Boston. Lay the points on the home favorite. Â |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Pacers -2.5 v. Magic | Top | 98-88 | Win | 100 | 19 h 54 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Indiana Pacers look to make it four wins on the bounce when they visit the Orlando Magic Wednesday night. They're coming off a 120-101 win against Houston on Sunday, and they're  6-2-1 ATS in their last nine games following a straight up win and 19-7 ATS in their last 26 games playing on two days rest. The Pacers have already defeated the Magic twice this season (by an average of 16 points) and they're 9-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings in the series. Orlando has dropped 11 of its last 14 games. The Magic are just 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 home games and 2-11 ATS in their last 13 Wednesday games. Lay the points on the Pacers. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Thunder +9 v. Spurs | 94-108 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 40 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The San Antonio Spurs are struggling at the moment, coming off back-to-back losses to Dallas and New Orleans, I think they'll bounce back with a win here against the Oklahoma City Thunder, but I don't think they'll cover the spread. The Thunder had won three straight prior to a 107-91 loss at Cleveland on Sunday. They're 4-1 ATS in their last five games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points and 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game. Thunder are 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings in the series. Take the points on the visitors. |
|||||||
01-30-17 | Pistons v. Celtics -6 | 109-113 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 8 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Boston Celtics look to make it four wins on the bounce when they open the new week with a matchup against the Detroit Pistons. The visitors are coming off back-to-back defeats, the most recent a 116-103 setback at Miami on Saturday. The Pistons are just 2-6 ATS in their last eight games and 2-5 ATS in their last seven following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. The teams split a couple of meetings back in November, both winning on the road. I like the Celtics to break that trend here and win big home at TD Garden. |
|||||||
01-30-17 | Nets v. Heat -9 | Top | 96-104 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 8 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA East *GAME OF THE WEEK* The red hot Miami Heat have reeled off seven consecutive wins through the last two weeks. They're 8-1 ATS in the last nine meetings with the Brooklyn Nets and off a solid 116-103 win against Detroit on Saturday. Heat are 4-0 ATS in their last four games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 6-0 ATS in their last six games playing on one days rest. The Nets are losers of five straight and eight of their last 10. They fell 129-100 at Minnesota on Saturday and are 1-8 ATS in their last nine games playing on one days rest and 0-4 ATS in their last four games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. |
|||||||
01-29-17 | Green Bay -5 v. Detroit | 92-93 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 32 m | Show | |
CBB *AFTERNOON APOCALYPSE* The Wisconsin Green Bay Phoenix are coming off back-to-back wins, and they handed Oakland an 80-72 defeat as an 8-point underdog on Friday. Green Bay is 6-1 ATS in its last seven games as a road favorite of 0.5-6.5. Here they'll visit a Detroit Titans team that is just 2-5 ATS in its last seven games as an underdog, and the Titans have dropped three straight. Friday's 73-69 home loss to Milwaukee went to OT, and that setback could affect the home team here, both mentally and physically. Take the road favorite in this contest. |
|||||||
01-28-17 | Clippers v. Warriors -12.5 | Top | 98-144 | Win | 100 | 13 h 23 m | Show |

01-27-17 | Wizards +4 v. Hawks | Top | 112-86 | Win | 100 | 20 h 10 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA Southeast *GAME OF THE MONTH* The Washington Wizards have won nine of their last 11 games, and they're coming off a meriting 123-108 win against Eastern Conference rivals Boston Celtics on Tuesday. Tonight they'll face a Southeast Division foe in Atlanta Hawks, and I absolutely love the points on the white hot Wizards here. Wizards are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 vs. Eastern Conference and 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Atlanta has also played well lately, coming off a 119-114 win at Chicago and the Hawks have won five of their last seven straight up. They're however just 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a straight up win and 2-6 ATS against division opponents on the season. The teams have split a couple of tight affairs so far this season, and I think this will be another close contest. Take the points on the Wizards. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Lakers +13 v. Jazz | 88-96 | Win | 100 | 12 h 52 m | Show | |
*LATE NIGHT NBA* The LA Lakers are coming off a 105-98 loss at Portland on Wednesday, and they're not getting much respect here the very next night. Normally I would agree as playing the second end of a back-to-back set in the altitude at Salt Lake City is far from easy, but this is a young and athletic Lakers side, so I think they'll be less affected than most teams. We can also note that the Jazz are in a bit of a slump after back-to-back losses to OKC and Denver, and this will mark their third game in four nights. None of the previous three meetings this season were decided by more than seven points. Take the points on the Lakers. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Suns v. Nuggets -6 | Top | 120-127 | Win | 100 | 22 h 41 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Denver Nuggets have picked up pace and won five of their last seven games. They're 6-1 ATS during that stretch, and I think they'll keep it rolling here against the Phoenix Suns. Phoenix had won back-to-back games at New York and Toronto before coming up just short in a 112-111 loss to Minnesota on Tuesday. Here they'll face a Denver team that has won both meetings this season (120-104 at Denver on Nov. 16 and 120-114 at Phoenix on Nov. 27). Phoenix is 29th in the league in scoring defense allowing 111.5 points a night. The Nuggets boast a high-octane offense, and I don't see the Suns keeping pace with Denver here. Lay the points on the home favorite. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Pacers v. Wolves -3.5 | 109-103 | Loss | -102 | 9 h 2 m | Show | |
NBA 3-Pack The Minnesota Timberwolves are coming off three consecutive wins, and I think they'll make it four on the bounce when they host the Indiana Pacers Thursday night. Indiana is coming off three straight defeats, two as favorites, and the Pacers are just 3-9 ATS in their last 12 road games. Gotta side with Minnesota to keep rolling here. |
|||||||
01-25-17 | Kings v. Cavs -11 | 116-112 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 25 m | Show | |
NBA *CA$H COW* The Cleveland Cavaliers have dropped five of their last seven games outright, and they're 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games overall. Completely unacceptable, and if the Cavs don't show up for this home game against the Kings I really don't know what to say. They put a 120-108 beating on the Kings at Sacramento on Jan. 13, and they're 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings in the series. The Kings had dropped five straight games before picking up a 109-104 victory at Detroit on Saturday. They're 3-13 ATS in their last 16 after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game. "Coach (Tyronn Lue) will figure it out. We've just got to be better as a team. It's not about how many minutes I'm playing right now or being fresh down the stretch. We've got to be good right now, and we're not winning." is what LeBron James said after Monday's 124-122 loss to the Pelicans. Time to step it up a notch, LeBron. |
|||||||
01-24-17 | Wolves +1.5 v. Suns | Top | 112-111 | Win | 100 | 21 h 9 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* Two teams near the bottom of the Western Conference standings will be looking to build some momentum when the Minnesota Timberwolves visit the Phoenix Suns Tuesday night. Minnesota is coming off back-to-back wins against the Clippers and the Nuggets (both as favorites), and they've now won five of their last seven games. The Suns are coming off back-to-back wins at New York and the Raptors, the most recent a 115-103 win as a 12-point dog at Toronto on Sunday. Massive letdown spot here after winning back-to-back games as underdogs, and we can note that the Suns are 8-24 ATS in their last 32 games following a straight up win and 1-5 ATS in their last six games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. Minnesota has won the previous two meetings this season (98-85 at Phoenix, 115-108 at home), and I think the Wolves will pick up another victory tonight. |

01-21-17 | Rockets v. Grizzlies +1 | 119-95 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 52 m | Show | |
NBA *MONEY MAKER* The Houston Rockets took a 125-108 beating by the Warriors last night, their fourth loss in their last six games. I don't think they'll have much gas left in the tank for Saturday's matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. Memphis defeated the Kings 107-91 on Friday, but the Grizzlies slow tempo style of basketball should favor them here in the second game of a back-to-back set compared to the high-paced Rockets. Rockets are just 3-13 ATS in their last 16 Saturday games, Grizzlies are 5-0 ATS in their last five Saturday games. Memphis has covered the closing line in nine of the last 12 meetings at FedExForum. Back the home team. |
|||||||
01-21-17 | Louisville v. Florida State -3 | Top | 68-73 | Win | 100 | 9 h 54 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* ACC *GAME OF THE MONTH* The Florida State Seminoles have failed to cover the spread in each of their last two games, but they're still 12-5 ATS in their last 17 home games. Saturday's opponent, the Louisville Cardinals, are in a let down spot following a massive 92-60 win as a 5-point favorite against Clemson. The Cardinals are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games as a road underdog of 0.5-6.5 points. Louisville must have to do without second leading scorer Quentin Snider who is out for two to three weeks with a hip injury. I don't think the Cards will be able to match FSU's powerful offense without him. FSU BIG! |
|||||||
01-20-17 | Warriors -5 v. Rockets | Top | 125-108 | Win | 100 | 20 h 33 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BEST BET* The Golden State Warriors will be looking to revenge a 132-127 double-overtime home loss to the Rockets on Dec. 1. The Warriors are 10-5-1 ATS in their last 16 games when revenging a home loss and they're coming off three straight wins by 20 points or more, the most recent a 121-100 rout of the Thunder. Golden State is 6-2 ATS in its last eight games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. The Rockets defeated Milwaukee 111-92 their last time out, but they've not been at their very best lately dropping three of their last five games (to Minnesota, Memphis and Miami). Houston might be able to match the Warriors offensively, but the Warriors have a better D and more depth. Close down James Harden and what to Houston have left? Lay the points on the visitors as they revenge the defeat from last month. |

01-20-17 | Raptors +1 v. Hornets | 78-113 | Loss | -115 | 18 h 39 m | Show | |
NBA *BANKROLL BUILDER* The Toronto Raptors had scored at least 114 points in six consecutive games before coming out flat in a 94-85 loss at Philadelphia on Wednesday, the second game of a back-to-back set. Their now coming off a day of rest and are 7-2 ATS in their last nine games following a straight up loss. They'll take on a Charlotte Hornets squad that snapped a five-game skid with a 107-85 win against the struggling Trail Blazers on Wednesday. Still, not looking good for the Hornets who are struggling on both sides of the ball at the moment, and I think the Raptors will run away with this game. |

01-19-17 | Gonzaga -12.5 v. Santa Clara | 88-57 | Win | 100 | 11 h 56 m | Show | |
CBB *LATE SHOW* The Gonzaga Bulldogs have been unstoppable this season and they look to record their 18th consecutive victory when they visit Santa Clara Thursday night. The Zags are 22-5 ATS in their last 27 games as a favorite while the Broncos are 1-4 ATS in their last five games as an underdog of 7.0-12.5. The Bulldogs have recorded 11 wins by 20 or more points, and although the Broncos gave them all sorts of problems in the last meeting here at Leavey Center I expect a blowout win for the Bulldogs this time around. |

Top Rated 10* East vs. West *GAME OF THE MONTH* The Washington Wizards will be looking for their 13th straight win in front of the home fans when they host the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday. They're 11-1 ATS in the previous 12 and beaten Philadelphia and Portland by a combined 35 points in the last two. They'll also seek to revenge a 112-103 OT loss at Memphis on Oct. 30 and we can note that Washington is 16-7 ATS when revenging a loss vs opponent on the season. The Grizzlies are coming off a 108-104 home loss to the Bulls on Sunday, and they're just 1-4 ATS in their last five games vs. teams from the Eastern Conference. The Wizards are 5-2 ATS in their last seven vs. Western Conference foes and I like them to put a big beating on Memphis here. |

01-17-17 | Nuggets +2 v. Lakers | 127-121 | Win | 100 | 19 h 30 m | Show | |
NBA 3-Pack The LA Lakers got off to a bright start this season, but they've dropped four straight games and 20 of 25 since splitting their first 20 contests. The Denver Nuggets meanwhile are heating up and they head into this game aiming for a third consecutive win after defeating Indiana 140-112 across the pond last Thursday followed by a 125-112 win against Orlando last night. Denver has a young and athletic team, so I don't think playing on back-to-back nights will have much of a negative effect. They've won six straight meetings with the Lakers at Staples Center, and my money is on their success to continue tonight. |

01-17-17 | Wolves v. Spurs -11 | 114-122 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 37 m | Show | |
NBA 3-Pack The San Antonio Spurs will be looking to bounce back from a 108-105 loss at Phoenix, and what better team to take out their frustrations on than the Minnesota Timberwolves? The Spurs are 7-1 ATS in the last eight meetings in the series and 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. The Minnesota Timberwolves came out flat in a 98-87 road loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday, and they're 1-4 ATS in their last five road games. Spurs are 6-2 ATS off an upset loss as a favorite this season, and I don't think the Wolves will stand a chance here. |

01-17-17 | Mavs +6 v. Bulls | 99-98 | Win | 100 | 16 h 8 m | Show | |
NBA 3-Pack Both teams are going for a third consecutive victory. The Mavs rank 4th in the NBA for scoring defense allowing only 100.5 points per game, and I think that just as in recent meetings their defense will keep them in this game (Mavs are 4-1 ATS last five in the series). Bulls are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 home games vs. a team with a losing road record while the Mavs are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. |

01-16-17 | Thunder +7.5 v. Clippers | 98-120 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 35 m | Show | |
NBA *LATE SHOW* The Oklahoma City Thunder are playing the second game on a back-to-back, but I still think they'll keep this a close enough game to cover the spread. The Clippers are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record while the Thunder are 4-0 ATS in their last four games vs. a team with a winning % above .600 and 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings at Staples Center. OKC needs to shore up its D after last night's 122-118 win at Sacramento, but the team is 13-2-1 ATS in their last 16 after allowing 100 points or more in its previous game. Take the points on the visitors. |

01-16-17 | Cavs v. Warriors -7.5 | 91-126 | Win | 100 | 11 h 44 m | Show | |
Cavs/Warriors *TNT BOOKIE BREAKER* The Cavaliers are closing out a physically demanding six-game road trip, and they have nothing to prove here after defeating the Warriors in the NBA finals last year and winning 109-108 home in Cleveland on Christmas Day. The Warriors showed no mercy when they trashed the Pistons 127-107 on Thursday. They're well rested, 7-1-1 ATS in their last nine games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game and should play with a chip on their shoulder here. Warriors by double digits. |

01-16-17 | Blazers v. Wizards -3.5 | Top | 101-120 | Win | 100 | 9 h 14 m | Show |
Early Top Rated 10* NBA The Washington Wizards will host the Portland Trail Blazers for an early matchup on Martin Luther King Day, and my money is on the home team to cover the spread. Washington is a solid 16-6 SU and 14-8 ATS home at Verizon Center on the season, that includes a 7-1 ATS record as a home favorite of 3.5 to 6 points. The Trail Blazers are coming off a 115-109 loss to Orlando as their defensive issues continues, and they're now allowing 110.4 points per game on the season. We can also note that both teams are solid offensively, but Washington is 17-12 ATS vs. teams scoring 99+ points/game while Portland is 13-19 ATS. Lay the points on the Wizards. |

01-15-17 | Bulls v. Grizzlies -8 | 108-104 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 20 m | Show | |
NBA *CA$H COW* The Chicago Bulls snapped a three-game skid with a 107-99 win against New Orleans on Saturday, but they're just 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight up win and they'll rest veteran Dwyane Wade here in the back-end of a back-to-back set. The Memphis Grizzlies are coming off a marquee win at Houston, and they've covered the spread in 11 of the last 16 meetings with the Bulls home at FedExForum. |

01-15-17 | Bucks +3 v. Hawks | 98-111 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 40 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Atlanta Hawks had won seven on the bounce before suffering a 103-101 home loss to the Celtics on Friday. They're just 2-9 ATS in their last 11 home games and 8-17 ATS in their last 25 games following a straight up loss. The Milwaukee Bucks are also playing solid basketball at the moment, winning five of their last seven and coming off back-to-back wins against San Antonio and Miami. The Bucks will be looking to revenge a 114-110 home loss as a 3-point favorite on Dec. 9, and it's worth pointing out that the road team is 10-4 ATS in the last 14 meetings in this series. |

01-15-17 | Knicks v. Raptors -9.5 | Top | 101-116 | Win | 100 | 13 h 44 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA Atlantic Div *GAME OF THE YEAR* I have an extremely strong lean towards the Toronto Raptors here. They're coming off back-to-back wins against division rivals Philadelphia and Brooklyn, the most recent a 132-113 rout of the Nets. Toronto is 6-1 ATS vs. division opponents on the season, 5-1 ATS after a division game and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. On the other side of the court we have the New York Knicks who are coming off a big win of their own, a 104-89 victory over Chicago. The Knicks are however 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 1-4 ATS vs. Atlantic division opponents on the season. Toronto has won the last four in the series, including a 118-107 home win on Nov. 12. I expect the Raptors to win by at least as many points again. |

01-14-17 | Magic v. Jazz -10.5 | 107-114 | Loss | -107 | 11 h 31 m | Show | |
NBA *BOOKIE BREAKER* The Utah Jazz dominated the Pistons in a 110-77 win on Friday, and I think they'll do a number on the Orlando Magic as well here the next day. Orlando is also playing the second game of a back-to-back set, and I think they're in a let down spot following a 115-109 road win at Portland on Friday. Magic are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a straight up win and 3-8-1 ATS in their last 12 Saturday games while the Jazz are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 Saturday games. Utah is oozing of confidence at the moment, and while this is a fair amount of points to lay I don't think it will be even close in the end. Take Utah and give the points. |

01-14-17 | Spurs -11 v. Suns | Top | 105-108 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 7 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* Spurs/Suns @Mexico City The San Antonio Spurs and the Phoenix Suns will do battle at Mexico City Saturday evening. San Antonio is coming off a 134-94 beat down of the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday, and I like the Spurs to roll here as they're 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. The Phoenix Suns have dropped back-to-back home games to Cleveland and Dallas, the 113-108 loss to the Mavs also here in Mexico City. I don't think the familiarity with the arena will be enough to help them here though. The Suns have struggled with Western Conference teams all season going 3-13-1 ATS in their last 17 vs. Western Conference and they're 1-5 ATS in the last six meetings with the Spurs. San Antonio won two meetings last month by an average of 18 points, and I expect another blowout win for the Spurs here. |

01-14-17 | Xavier +4.5 v. Butler | 78-83 | Loss | -107 | 4 h 2 m | Show | |
CBB *DOG OF THE DAY* The Xavier Musketeers had won six on the bounce before a 79-54 setback as an 8-point dog at Villanova on Tuesday. "Well, the annual Villanova (butt) kicking. I'm getting really tired of it," Musketeers coach Chris Mack said at the beginning of his postgame press conference, and I think he'll have his team fired up today. The Bulldogs are also coming off a loss, a 75-64 setback at Creighton, and they've covered the spread in just one of the last 12 meetings with Xavier. Home or away has not mattered much as Xacier is 6-1 ATS in the last seven at Hinkle Fieldhouse. We can also note that Xavier is 6-2-1 ATS in its  last nine games as a road underdog of 0.5-6.5 points. Take the points on the visitors. |

NBA *LATE SHOW* The Cleveland Cavaliers are in a look ahead spot with a matchup with the Warriors on deck Monday. They're coming off back-to-back losses at Utah and Portland, and I don't see them heading into Golden State on a three-game losing streak. The Kings snapped a three-game skid with a 100-94 win against Detroit on Tuesday, but they're just 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up win. Cleveland an impressive 10-3 ATS in their its 13 Friday night games, and I like the Cavs to roll here. |

01-13-17 | Hornets v. 76ers +5.5 | Top | 93-102 | Win | 100 | 12 h 11 m | Show |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Charlotte Hornets have dropped five of their last six games, and this looks like a tough spot as they make the fourth stop on a five-game road trip. The Philadelphia 76ers will come in strengthened by a late comeback in Wednesday's 98-97 win against the Knicks, their fourth win in five games and the fifth straight game they covered the spread. Charlotte is really struggling at the defensive end, allowing 114.3 points on average through their last six contests. Look for the 76ers to take full advantage of the Hornets' slumping defense. |

CBB *EASY MONEY* The Michigan Wolverines are coming off a 77-70 home loss to Maryland as an 8-point favorite and they've failed to cover the spread in four straight games. They're however 5-2 ATS in their last seven games as a road favorite of 0.5-6.5 points and 10-2 ATS in the last 12 meetings with the Illinois Fighting Illini who are 8-25 ATS in their last 33 games as a home underdog of 0.5-6.5 points. Illinois has lost two of its first three games in Big Ten action by an average margin of 20.5 points. I don't like their chances of keeping this a close game. |

NBA *CA$H COW* The OKC Thunder will be looking to revenge a 114-80 loss at Memphis on Dec. 29, and I think they're catching the Grizzlies at a good time. Memphis is in a let down spot after back-to-back marquee victories against Golden State and Utah, and the Grizzlies will face a Thunder squad that is 6-1 ATS as a home favorite of 3.5 to 6 points this season, making OKC Wednesday's CA$H COW. |

01-10-17 | Hornets v. Rockets -9.5 | Top | 114-121 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 22 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a 102-85 defeat at San Antonio to make it four losses in their last five games. They'll make the third stop on a five-game road swing when they visit Houston Tuesday night, and this looks like an excellent spot for the Rockets. Charlotte allowed San Antonio to knock down 13 shots from 3-point land, and the Hornets have allowed their last five opponents an average of 113.6 points. That should spell trouble against a Rockets team that goes for nine wins in a row here and are 19-2 since December 1. They're scoring just for fun and are not shy to pile on the points going 26-13-0 ATS on the season. The Hornets are 3-7-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings overall and 1-9-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings at Toyota Center. BIG BET on the Rockets recommended. |

Top Rated 10* CBB *GAME OF THE WEEK* The 13-2 Xavier Musketeeers are visiting the 15-1 Villanova Wildcats Tuesday night, and I think the visitors are catching too many points to pass up on here. Xavier is 7-3-1 ATS in its last 11 games as a road underdog and the Musketeers have covered the spread in each of their last four games. Villanova bounced back from a 66-58 loss at Butler with a 93-81 win against Marquette on Saturday, but the Wildcats are just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. |

01-09-17 | Pelicans v. Knicks -4 | 110-96 | Loss | -102 | 10 h 46 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The New York Knicks have dropped seven of their last eight games, including a 104-92 setback at New Orleans on Dec. 30. They'll be looking to revenge that defeat and bounce back from a 123-109 loss at Indiana on Saturday, and I like their chances as the Knicks are 5-1 ATS in their last six games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. They'll host a New Orleans team that has lost three on the bounce and the Pels are just 4-13 SU and 7-10 ATS on the road (1-5 ATS L6 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600) this season. The Knickerbockers are a solid 11-7 SU and 12-6 ATS home at MSG, and they're 9-3 ATS as a favorite on the season. Knicks forward Kristaps Porzingis has averaged 20 points while going 7-of-10 from 3-point range in two games since coming back from an Achilles injury. Look for "Porzingod" to lead the Knicks to a big win here. |

01-09-17 | Quinnipiac +7 v. St. Peter's | 54-58 | Win | 100 | 8 h 45 m | Show | |
CBB *BANKROLL BUILDER* Quinnipiac is playing good basketball at the moment, winning two of its last three, the most recent a 81-71 win against Manhattan as a 2-point home favorite. The Bobcats have had good success against the spread on the road this season and are 5-0 ATS in their last five games as a road underdog of 7.0-12.5 points. St. Peter's Peacocks is shooting just 39.3% from the floor and the Bobcats should have an advantage on the glass. An outright upset is far-fetched, but I like Quinnipiac to cover the spread. |

They're 3-12 SU and 5-10 ATS on the road this season and took a 123-96 beating here at Milwaukee on Dec. 23. The Bucks had recorded three consecutive wins before suffering a 116-111 loss as a 5-point favorite against the Knicks on Friday. They're 4-1 ATS in their last five games following a straight up loss and the favorite is 10-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings with Washington. |

They gave the Rockets a run for their money in a 118-116 loss on Thursday, and I like the Thunder to come up big here against the reeling Denver Nuggets who have dropped four straight SU and are 1-7 ATS last eight overall. The Thunder are 6-2-1 ATS in their last nine home games and 4-1 ATS in the last five when hosting Denver. |

Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Golden State Warriors have dropped just five games all season, but one of those setbacks was a 110-89 loss to the Grizzlies at Memphis on Dec. 10. Huge revenge angle for Golden State here. Note that the Warriors are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings with the Grizzlies home at Oracle and they've won the last two home games against Memphis by a total of 71 points. The Grizzlies have the best scoring defense in the NBA, but they've dropped four of their last six games and allowed at least 112 points in each of those four defeats. Golden State owns an average margin of victory of +12.4 points on the season, and I like them to put a beating on the Grizzlies tonight. |

NBA Subscribers Only The Houston Rockets are coming off a dramatic 118-116 win against OKC on Thursday for their 17th win in 19 games. Houston has been money playing on back-to-back this season, and I don't think the Rockets will have any trouble with the lowly Orlando Magic here. Rockets are 8-1 ATS in their last nine road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400 and 7-2 ATS in their last nine games playing on no days rest. Magic are 4-12-1 ATS in their last 17 home games and coming off a 111-92 loss to Atlanta. They're 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven games playing on one days rest. |

NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Washington Wizards are coming off back-to-back losses at Houston and Dallas, but they're 8-0 SU and ATS in their last eight home games and I think they'll take care of business here against Minnesota. The Timberwolves have won just two of their last seven games, and they're coming off an embarrassing 93-91 loss to the lowly 76ers. The Timberwolves are 2-9 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Washington, and this should be an easy win for the Wizards. |

Jazz are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points and could very well threaten a slumping Toronto Raptors team here. Toronto returns home from a six-game road trip, and the team has dropped three of its last four outright, scoring just 82 points in a 110-82 loss at San Antonio on Tuesday. Take the points on the Jazz. |

Baylor leads the Big 12 and ranks fifth nationally in scoring defense, allowing an average of 58.4 points, but the Cyclones are strong on the defensive end of the court as well allowing just 82.5 points per game, and they're fifth nationally in field-goal percentage defense at 36.6 percent. This is too many points for Butler to give up in what should be a defensive battle. |

NBA *BANKROLL BUILDER* One of the Indiana Pacers' mere four road victories this season came here at the Palace of Auburn Hills on Dec. 17 when they handed the Pistons a 105-90 defeat. I like Detroit to claim revenge here. The Pistons started the year with a solid 107-98 win at Miami, and they need to start winning more games if they want to make the playoffs again. The Pacers are coming off back-to-back home wins against Chicago and Orlando, but they're generally much stronger at home than on the road. Indiana is 5-11 ATS as an underdog this season while Detroit is 2-0 ATS as a home favorite of 3.5 to 6 points. |

01-02-17 | Nuggets v. Warriors -14.5 | 119-127 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 23 m | Show | |
NBA *LATE SHOW* The Golden State Warriors have covered the spread in just one of their last four games, but this looks like a good spot for them to go on a rampage against the Denver Nuggets who are 0-5 ATS in their last five games. The Nuggets rank 25th in the NBA in 3-point percentage defense, and that should spell trouble here against the sharpest 3-point shooting team in the NBA. The Warriors had little trouble to defeat the Nuggets 125-101 at Denver back in November, and this game could very well end with a similar scoreline. We can also note that the Nuggets have a matchup with the Kings on deck home at Denver tomorrow while the Warriors will have a day off before hosting Portland on Wednesday. |

NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Chicago Bulls closed out 2016 in a poor fashion, dropping eight of their last 11 games of the year. Here they'll host a Charlotte team that has won five of its past seven, and the Hornets will be looking to bounce back from a 121-109 home loss to the Cavs on New Year's Eve. Note that Charlotte is 6-2 ATS in its last eight games following a double-digit loss at home while the Bulls are 1-8 ATS in their last nine when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game. Hornets are 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings overall and 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings at United Center. |

Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The San Antonio Spurs are a small road favorite at Atlanta Hawks here on New Years Day, and I think this looks like a great spot to back the Spurs. They're 9-1 SU and ATS through their last 10 games, and they're coming off a 110-94 win against Portland on Friday. We can note that the Spurs are 6-0 ATS in their last six games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 5-1 ATS in their last six Sunday games. Small forward Kawhi Leonard has missed the last two games due to a stomach bug but could be back in the lineup here. The Hawks have won three of their past four games and they're coming off back-to-back home wins against New York and Detroit. They're however just 1-8 ATS in their last nine home games and 5-11-2 ATS in their last 18 Sunday games. The Spurs are 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings in Atlanta, and I expect a comfortable win for the visitors. |

Houston has been among the hotter teams in the NBA in the last month, and the Rockets are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games playing on no rest while the Knicks are 1-4 ATS in their last five on no rest. The Rockets have covered the spread in 15 of the last 19 meetings and I expect a blowout win for the Rockets in this contest. |

King James will be back on the floor tonight, looking to do some damage to the third best team in the East. The Cavs defeated the Celtics 128-122 here at Quicken Loans Arena back in November, and they're a solid 7-1 ATS in their last eight vs. teams from the Eastern Conference. The Celtics have played well lately, but I don't think they got what it takes to run with the best team in the East just yet. |

NBA The red hot Oklahoma City Thunder are going for a fifth consecutive win when they visit the Memphis Grizzlies Thursday night. They've covered the spread in each game during that span and are 6-2 ATS in their last eight road games. The Memphis Grizzlies are trending in the opposite direction, dropping back-to-back decisions at Orlando and Boston and they've won just two of their past seven games (2-5 ATS). Mike Conley missed Tuesday's 113-103 loss at Boston with a toe injury. He is questionable for this contest and Memphis struggles big time on offense without the point guard, Oklahoma City took two of the three meetings last season, including a 125-88 win in Memphis on Dec. 8, 2015 and I think the fast-paced Thunder will run away with this game. |

12-28-16 | Raptors +10 v. Warriors | Top | 111-121 | Push | 0 | 21 h 25 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *LATE SHOW* The Golden State Warriors are coming off a 109-108 loss at Cleveland on Christmas Day, and here they'll take on the second best team in the East as the Toronto Raptors are coming to town. The Warriors are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall, and I think they're asked to cover way too many points here. The red hot Raptors have won eight of their last nine games and they've opened a six-game road trip with wins at Utah and Portland. They're 8-1 ATS in their last nine road games vs. a team with a winning home record and none of the past three meetings with the Warriors have been decided by more than six points. We can also note that the Raptors are 6-1 ATS as an underdog this season. Toronto has a strong backcourt in Kyle Lowry and Demar DeRozan, and I think they'll give the Warriors dito all kinds of problem. |

12-28-16 | Pacers v. Wizards -4.5 | 105-111 | Win | 100 | 9 h 32 m | Show | |
NBA *BANKROLL BUILDER* The Indiana Pacers are just 4-12 SU and ATS on the road this season, and I think they're in for a tough game when taking on the Washington Wizards at the Verizon Center Wednesday night. The Wizards are 5-1 ATS as a home favorite of 3.5 to 6 points this season and they've been playing well lately, winning five of their past seven games outright. They're getting good production from John Wall and Bradley Beal in the backcourt, and small forward Otto Porter Jr. stepped up with 32 points in Monday's 107-102 win against Milwaukee. The struggling Pacers have dropped three straight and they're 0-4 ATS in their last four games. They defeated the Wizards 107-105 as a five-point home favorite on Dec. 19, but we can note that the Wizards are 12-6 ATS when revenging a loss vs. an opponent this season. |

12-27-16 | Jazz -4.5 v. Lakers | Top | 102-100 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 38 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The LA Lakers are in a huge let down spot following a 111-102 win against the Clippers on Christmas Day, their first in 12 attempts in the series. The Lakers are 1-5 ATS in their last six games following a straight up win, and they've already lost twice to Utah this season (96-89 on the road and 107-101 here at Staples Center). The Jazz will be desperate for a win after dropping three on the bounce, and the schedule leading into the Christmas weekend was brutal. Here they'll come in well rested not playing since Dec. 23, and I like them to make the most of the rest advantage in this contest. Â Â |

12-23-16 | Hawks v. Nuggets -4 | 109-108 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 12 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Denver Nuggets have played some inspired basketball of late. Sure they're coming off a 119-102 loss at LA Clippers, but they've won three on the bounce home at Pepsi Center and four of their past six overall while averaging 115.6 points per game during that stretch. The Atlanta Hawks have been wildly inconsistent this season, and they looked pretty bad in a 92-84 home loss to Minnesota on Wednesday. The Hawks are 2-12 ATS in their last 14 games playing on one days rest and 2-7 ATS in their last nine Friday night games. The Nuggets have had an additional day of rest since their loss to the Clippers, and they're used to the high altitude in Denver. |

12-22-16 | Spurs v. Clippers | Top | 101-106 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 18 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The San Antonio Spurs head to LA to revenge a loss to the Clippers from earlier in the season. Keep in mind though, Spurs were playing the second game of a back-to-back set and were without Tony Parker and Danny Green in the 116-92 win against San Antonio on Nov. 5. Tonight's matchup looks way more favorable for the Spurs as they'll face a Clippers team playing without Blake Griffin who contributed 28 points on 13-of-19 shooting in the last meting, so he'll be a massive miss for the home side. San Antonio is 15-1 SU and 10-5-1 ATS on the road this season. They showed great mental toughness to come from behind and defeat the Rockets at Houston on Tuesday, and I like them to win this game outright. |
|||||||
12-21-16 | Kings v. Jazz -7 | Top | 94-93 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 52 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *GAME OF THE WEEK* The Utah Jazz had won four on the bounce and seven of their past eight prior to taking a 104-74 beating at Golden State last night. I like them to bounce back with a blowout win here against the Sacramento Kings who defeated Portland last night. We can note that the Kings are 2-6 ATS in their last eight road games vs. a team with a winning home record, and playing on back-to-back nights in the altitude at Utah won't be easy. The Jazz are 4-1-1 ATS in their last six home games, 4-1-1 ATS in their last six games playing on no rest and obviously more used to the altitude in Salt Lake City. Utah won 104-84 as a 6-point favorite when the Kings came to visit on Dec. 10, and I would not be surprised to see the Jazz winning by a similar scoreline tonight. Â |

12-20-16 | Creighton -7.5 v. Arizona State | 96-85 | Win | 100 | 16 h 22 m | Show | |
NCAAB *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Creighton Bluejays are 11-0 on the season, but they had to fight hard for the W as a 24.5-point home favorite against Oral Roberts on Saturday. Creighton walked away as a 66-65 winner in the end, and I expect a much better performance here as they're 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games following a ATS loss. Arizona State on the other hand has struggled to cover spreads all season long, and the team is 3-12-1 ATS in its last 16 games as an underdog last season included. Creighton has the eighth most prolific offense in the nation in averaging 89.3 points per game. Arizona State's D meanwhile ranks among the worst in the NCAA, and I expect Creighton to run away with a big win here. |

12-19-16 | Hawks v. Thunder -2.5 | Top | 110-108 | Loss | -110 | 22 h 56 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Oklahoma City Thunder are coming off a 114-101 win against Phoenix. They're now 4-1-1 ATS in their last six home games, and I like them to take care of business when hosting the Atlanta Hawks Monday night. The Hawks have been widely inconsistent this season, and they took a 102-99 beating by the Thunder home at Atlanta two weeks ago. Here we can note that Atlanta is just 1-4 ATS when revenging a home loss vs. an opponent this season and 3-8 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Oklahoma City. Atlanta suffered a 107-99 home loss to Charlotte on Saturday, and the team has surrendered an average of 116 points in the last three contests. Here the Hawks need to find a way to slow down an offense averaging 109.2 points per game in their own building, and I don't think they'll succeed. |

12-18-16 | Mercer v. Auburn -10.5 | 74-76 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 56 m | Show | |
College Basketball *AFTERNOON APOCALYPSE* The Auburn Tigers will host Mercer Bears Sunday afternoon, and my money is on the home team to win and cover the spread. Auburn is 4-1 ATS in its last five games as a home favorite of 7.0-12.5 while Mercer is 3-12-1 ATS in its last 16 games as a road underdog. Auburn tied an SEC record with 21 3-pointers and shot 55.6 percent in Thursday's 117-72 blowout victory as an 11.5-point favorite against Coastal Carolina. Mercer fell 90-47 at Clemson on Dec. 10, and I'm not sure that much rest is beneficial. |

12-17-16 | Blazers v. Warriors -13 | Top | 90-135 | Win | 100 | 24 h 32 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Portland Trail Blazers are going through an incredibly tough stretch of the schedule. This will be their seventh road game (of eight total) since Dec. 5. They've lost all but one of those road games outright and covered the spread just once. Here they'll visit the Golden State Warriors who are going for a fourth consecutive win and cruised to a 103-90 victory over the Knicks on Thursday. Golden State is 14-5 ATS in its last 19 games playing on one days rest and it has covered the spread in 22 of the past 30 meetings with Portland. The Warriors took the last three regular season meetings while averaging 130.3 points and the Blazers are playing absolutely terrible defense this season. We can also note that the Blazers are just 6-14 ATS vs. teams averaging 99+ points/game, and I would not be surprised to see the Warriors running away and win this game with 20+ points. The Warriors next game is not until Dec. 20 at home against Utah, so no reason not to give 100 percent effort for the full game here. |

12-16-16 | Hawks v. Raptors -7 | 125-121 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 9 m | Show | |
NBA 3-Pack A very simple case of backing a team that is hot vs. a team that is not. The Raptors have won 10 of their last 11 games, covering the spread in each win. They return home to Toronto following a 123-114 win at Philadelphia and they're 7-1-1 ATS in their last nine home games, 5-1 ATS in their last six Friday night games and 11-1 ATS in their last 12 vs. Eastern Conference foes. The Hawks meanwhile have dropped eight of their last 10. They're coming off a 131-120 home loss to Orlando, and if they can't stop the lowly Magic's offense I don't see how they could possibly slow down Toronto here. The Hawks are 1-7 ATS in their last eight Friday games and 1-6 ATS in the last seven matchups in Toronto. |

12-15-16 | Pacers v. Pelicans -2.5 | 95-102 | Win | 100 | 13 h 11 m | Show | |
NBA Pacers/Pels The New Orleans Pelicans are coming off a solid performance in a 113-109 home loss to Golden State, and they've picked up five of their eight wins on the season home at Smoothie King Center. "My message to them was we have to play this well against every team," Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry told reporters after the defeat. The Indiana Pacers are in a very rough spot after losing 95-89 at Miami last night. The Pacers are 1-4 ATS in their last five games playing on no rest and 1-10 ATS in their last 11 Thursday games while the Pels are 5-1 ATS in their last six Thursday games.  Indiana is just 3-9 SU and ATS on the road this season, and I like the Pels in this matchup. |

12-14-16 | Kings v. Rockets -9.5 | Top | 98-132 | Win | 100 | 20 h 58 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Houston Rockets will host the Sacramento Kings at Toyota Center Wednesday night, and this looks like an excellent spot to back the home team. Houston leads the league with 37.4 3-point attempts per game, and they're making an impressive 38 percent of those shots. The Kings are among the worst in the NBA at defending the three-ball, and they're in a letdown spot here following a 116-92 win against the Lakers. Houston is undefeated through its seven games so far in December and is averaging 119.1 points during the winning streak. The team is 10-1 ATS in its last 11 vs. Western Conference teams and 8-2 in the last 10 meetings with the Kings. The Rockets won 117-104 at Sacramento on Nov. 25, and I expect them to win with a similar margin tonight. |

12-14-16 | Raptors -9 v. 76ers | 123-114 | Push | 0 | 14 h 34 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The Toronto Raptors are asked to lay a bunch of points on the road at Philadelphia Wednesday night, but I like them to win and cover the number. Philly is coming off back-to-back wins at New Orleans (6.5-point dog) and Detroit (12-point dog), but I think they'll come back to reality in a very harsh way tonight. The Raptors are 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings and 24-9-2 ATS in the last 35 meetings at Wells Fargo Center, so they're a proven terrible matchup for the 76ers. The Raptors went 14-of-25 from 3-point range in Monday's 122-100 win against Milwaukee, and they're 9-1 SU and ATS through their last 10 games. Don't let the 76ers recent results fool you, they'll stand no chance in this contest. |

12-13-16 | Knicks -3.5 v. Suns | 111-113 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 44 m | Show | |
NBA *HARDWOOD HAMMER* The New York Knicks have won six of their last seven games, covering the spread in each victory. The lone setback during that stretch was a blowout loss against Cleveland, and I like them to record another win when visiting the Phoenix Suns Tuesday night. The Suns have dropped four of their last five, and they're coming off a frustrating 120-119 OT loss to the Pelicans as they managed to squander a 15-point lead. New York took the two meetings last season by an average of 24.5 points, and this looks like a good spot to back the Knicks. |
|||||||
12-13-16 | Warriors -10.5 v. Pelicans | 113-109 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 12 m | Show | |
NBA *CA$H COW* The Golden State Warriors came from behind to beat the Timberwolves 116-108 on Sunday, a game that closed out a brutal stretch of four games in different cities in just five days. They've had a full day to recover before closing out their a five-game road trip at New Orleans Tuesday night, and I think the Warriors will come out strong here. The Pelicans snapped a five-game skid with a 120-119 OT win as a 2-point underdog at Phoenix on Sunday, but that victory puts them in a let down spot here. Fading home dogs coming off a win as an underdog is a proven profitable proposition, going 56-32-2 ATS over the last two seasons, and we can note that the Warriors are 9-4-1 ATS in the last 14 meetings with the Pels at Smoothie King Center. |

12-12-16 | Hornets +2.5 v. Pacers | Top | 94-110 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 60 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *GAME OF THE WEEK* The Charlotte Hornets opened a five-game road swing with a 116-105 loss at Cleveland. They'll be looking to get back in the win column as they visit the Indiana Pacers Monday night, and I like the visitors in this matchup. The Hornets are 14-5 ATS in their last 19 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points and 4-0 ATS in the last four head-to-head meetings with the Pacers. Indiana is in a rough spot as they've just returned home from a five-game road trip of their own. They defeated Portland 118-11 on Saturday but are just 5-11 ATS in their last 16 after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game and 1-4 ATS in their last five Monday night games. We're getting points on the much better team, in a much better spot with plenty of trends supporting the play? This warrants a BIG BET! |

12-11-16 | Celtics v. Thunder -4 | Top | 96-99 | Loss | -105 | 6 h 10 m | Show |
Top Rated 10* NBA *BASKET BRAWLER* The Oklahoma City Thunder will host the Boston Celtics Sunday evening, and I think this looks like a good spot to back the home team. The Celtics are just 4-12 ATS in their last 16 vs. Western Conference teams, and they were without leading scorer Isaiah Thomas due to a groin injury in Friday's 101-94 home loss to Toronto. Thomas is expected to sit out tonight's contest as well while the Thunder's superstar Russell Westbrook is on absolute fire, going for his eighth consecutive triple-double. The Thunder will be looking to bounce back from a 102-99 loss to Houston, and they're 6-1 ATS in their last seven games overall. |

12-11-16 | Hofstra v. Kentucky -25 | 73-96 | Loss | -110 | 3 h 19 m | Show | |
CBB The No. 7 Kentucky Wildcats will take on Hofstra Pride at Barclays Center in Brooklyn Sunday afternoon. Kentucky is coming off a 87-63 win against Valparaiso as it bounced back from a 97-92 loss to UCLA. Hofstra meanwhile had won four straight before coming up short in a 81-71 loss to St. Bonaventure last Tuesday. The Wildcats are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games as a favorite of 13 points or greater and 6-1 ATS in their last seven neutral site games as a favorite. I think the loss to UCLA as an 11-point favorite worked as a wake up call for the Wildcats, and I don't see them underestimating any team in the nearest future. "Coming off the loss, we wanted to get things rolling early," Kentucky’s senior forward Derek Willis told reporters after the win against Valparaiso. "We keyed in on the things we messed up last game against UCLA. We came out a lot more focused and had way more energy." The Wildcats are the superior team by a mile, and I expert them to cover the spread. |
