02-26-22 | Avalanche v. Golden Knights +120 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vegas Golden Knights. I like the Vegas Golden Knights to win this game against the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday. Vegas hasn't looked good in their games lately, they only have 1/5 wins in their previous 5 games but I think it is time for them to snap out of their funk. They just lost their most recent game to the Coyotes and that is not a good look on them at all. I think they are going to be really upset from that loss and I expect them to take out their anger on the Avalanche here. They actually lost 1 of those 4 losses in their previous 5 games to the Avalanche on home ice and they were shut out in that game. I think they are going to remember that game and I expect them to be motivated after getting shut out last time to score some goals and win this game. They have a chance for redemption here since they will be on home ice again and they didn't even play that bad in their previous meeting. That game was 0-0 up until the 3rd period when the Avalanche scored an early goal in the 1st 2 minutes of that period and that ended up being the game winner. I think Vegas will give a better performance in this game though. The Avalanche have been very hot lately with 4 wins in their previous 5 games and I think that is even more motivation for Vegas to play hard and try to add another loss onto Colorado's run. The Avalanche are also leading the West at the moment and they have that lead by 12 points over the 2nd place team. I think Vegas is coming for them tonight and will have the extra motivation in this game to knock them down a few pegs. I like the Golden Knights to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Golden Knights. |

02-26-22 | Stanford -1 v. California | 39-53 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 1 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Stanford. I like Stanford to cover the spread against California in this game on Saturday. Stanford has lost 2 games in a row now and they just lost their most recent game by 10+ points getting destroyed on their home court. I think they are going to be upset over that loss and the way they played in that game and I expect them to get a bounce back win here over California who has not been that great this year. Stanford hasn't been terrible in their road games in conference play this year, they have a few close losses and some bad ones too but they also have a win over a ranked team in USC and they just won their most recent road game by 10+ points. They haven't been great in conference play this year but they also haven't been terrible either since they are 8-9 but that is great compared to a team like California that has been terrible in conference play. California is 4-13 in conference play and they have lost 2 games in a row now, both losses were in home games for them. They have another home game here and I think Stanford can beat up on them in this game. California doesn't put up a lot of points in their games and lately they haven't been scoring a lot at all. They haven't put up 65+ points in 6/7 of their previous 7 games and I think Stanford is going to outscore them in this game. Stanford just lost 2 bad games on their home court where they didn't put up a lot of points. I think they will be motivated to break out of their funk here and pick up a win over a team that has been having a lot more issues this year than they have been. I like Stanford to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 63-57 Stanford. |

02-26-22 | Kansas v. Baylor UNDER 149.5 | Top | 70-80 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Kansas/Baylor UNDER. I am on the under in the Kansas vs Baylor game on Saturday. Kansas has looked really good lately with 4 wins in a row now but they have been giving a really good effort on defense in a lot of their games. I think Kansas will give a good defensive effort in this game too since the team they are playing is right on their tail for 1st place in their conference. Kansas just won their most recent game 102-83 but the games they played before that win were much lower in score. They didn't give up 70+ points to any opposing teams for 3 games in a row before their most recent win, and they haven't given up 70+ points in 5/7 of their previous 7 games. In their previous meeting this year, Kansas only gave up 59 points to Baylor and I think they can play with that kind of defensive intensity again in this game. I expect Baylor to also play a lot better on defense in this game too. They gave up 83 points in that 1st meeting against Kansas and I think they will play harder on defense and give a better effort so that doesn't happen again. They are also on their home court here, they have been a lot better on their home court this year and I think they will have an easier time getting the stops in this game. This is also an important game for both teams, Baylor is behind Kansas in conference play this year and Baylor would need Kansas to lose at least 2 games or they can't catch up. Baylor has a chance to deliver 1 of those losses here and I think they will play more cautious and give that extra effort on defense to get stops considering they were embarrassed by Kansas last time. I think both teams will have a good defensive effort in this game and I expect it to be a lower scoring game. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 69-66 Baylor. |

02-26-22 | Celtics -10.5 v. Pistons | Top | 113-104 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 40 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Boston Celtics. I like the Boston Celtics to cover the spread against the Detroit Pistons in this game on Saturday. The Celtics just won their most recent game over the Nets and they blew them out by 20+ points in their 1st game back from the All Star break. The Celtics were really hot before the break and they have looked great with wins in 11/12 of their previous 12 games. The 1 loss that they suffered during that time was actually to the Pistons in a home game right before the All Star break started. That loss in the only tainted game in what has been an incredible run for them lately and I think that loss is still going to be fresh in their minds here. I think the Celtics will want to get that game back here and I don't think they are going to take the Pistons lightly here either since they have now won 2 games in a row. They even won both of those games over some very good opposing teams, the Cavaliers being their other win. Both of those wins were also by less than 3 points in both games and I think the Pistons have gone as far as they can go on this run of theirs. They are still 1 of the worst teams in the East this year at 14-45 and I expect the Celtics to remind them of that in this game. Even though the Celtics aren't on their home court here, they just lost there to the Pistons last week and I think they will view this revenge game as a way to defend their home court and get that win back after a 1 point loss there. The Celtics are also 1 of the few NBA teams that are fully healthy at the moment and I expect the Celtics to continue playing at a very high level while everyone is available. Now that the All Star break has passed, the NBA is in its final stretch of the year and I think the Celtics will be turning on the jets here and start getting into playoff form. I like the Celtics to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 119-97 Celtics. |

02-26-22 | Purdue -4.5 v. Michigan State | 65-68 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 30 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Purdue. I like Purdue to cover the spread against Michigan State in this game on Saturday. Purdue has won 3 games in a row and their 2 most recent wins were both by 5+ points. They struggled a bit after losing to Michigan and even won over Maryland by only 1 point on their home court, but they have looked a lot better lately and I think they will be able to roll right over Michigan State in this game. Purdue has been good in their road games this year at 5-3 but they have been dominating their conference play at 13-4 and they are even in 1st place of their conference too. They have a few teams that can catch up to them though so I think now is the time for Purdue to start pouring it on in their games as we reach the final few games here. Michigan State has really been tumbling in their games lately and I don't think they can work their way out of this spiral with how tough their schedule is in these final 4 games. Michigan State has lost 3 games in a row now but they have also lost 5/6 of their previous 6 games. They even lost a few of those games by 10+ points while coming very close in others. Things have not been going their way though, and I think they are going to keep stumbling in these final few games here. Purdue has looked shaky in some games but for the most part, they have looked really good in most of their games and even in the games they won in a close battle, they still found a way to get the win while Michigan State has been doing the opposite and finding ways to lose games. I think Purdue is a lot better and they have a lot of momentum on their side here. I don't think Michigan State will give Purdue a challenge here with how they have looked in a lot of their games lately. I like Purdue to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 87-77 Purdue. |

02-25-22 | Kings v. Ducks -102 | 4-1 | Loss | -102 | 10 h 57 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Anaheim Ducks. I like the Anaheim Ducks to win this game against the LA Kings on Friday. The Ducks have won 2 games in a row and I think they can extend that run to 3 games here. They have been scoring a lot of goals lately and I think they will do the same as they start to gain some momentum playing on home ice after coming back from a road trip. The Kings are also on a road trip here and they have won 3 games in a row, all 3 games of their road trip. This is the last road game for them before returning home and with the game being so close to home I don't think they are going to give their best effort in this game. They did not look good in their 3 wins and they must be exhausted from playing those games. They won their 1st game in Vegas going past regulation to get that win. Then they played the Coyotes in Arizona 2 games in a row and they did not look that impressive, winning 1 of those 5-3 but their most recent game was 3-2 and they came from behind in that game. I think the Kings are going to be out of gas here and the Ducks should be able to take advantage of that on their home ice. I like the Ducks to win this game and end the run the Kings are on. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Ducks. |

02-25-22 | Mavs v. Jazz OVER 216.5 | 109-114 | Win | 100 | 9 h 3 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Mavericks/Jazz OVER. I am on the over in the Dallas Mavericks vs Utah Jazz game on Friday. The Mavericks can put up a lot of points in their games and they have been lately. They have put up 100+ points in 10/11 of their previous 11 games and that has been a common theme for them in a lot of their games this year. Lately they have been keeping a lot of opposing teams under 100 points in their games but their schedule has not been that strong and I think they will need to put up a lot more points in a game like this between 2 great teams in the West. Ever since the Mavericks traded away Porzingis they have been weaker on the defensive end of the court and I think Doncic will feel more pressure to score more points against the Jazz here, who have a number of different players very dangerous with the ball. The Jazz have also been putting up a ton of points in their games lately. They have put up 100+ points in 9 games in a row. They have even given up 99+ points in 10/11 of their previous 11 games too. The Jazz will be playing their 1st game back from the All Star game too so they will be rested and that will benefit them heavily with players like Mitchell and Gobert just coming back from injuries not too long ago. I think the Jazz are going to go back to their dominant ways now that everyone is healthy again and I think the Jazz will defend their home court well here by putting up a lot of points and trying to gain a big lead. I think the Mavericks can go toe to toe with them though and I expect both teams to put up a ton of points here. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 123-117 Jazz. |

02-25-22 | Iowa -12.5 v. Nebraska | 88-78 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 7 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Iowa. I like Iowa to cover the spread against Nebraska in this game on Friday. Iowa has looked really good in their games lately and they have been winning a lot of their games by 10+ points. They have won 2 games in a row and during that time they picked up a win over Ohio State in a road game by 13 points and their most recent game was a home win over Michigan State by 20+ points. Iowa has looked really good and I think they are going to keep playing at a high level in this game. This is a road game for them and they are below .500 in road games this year but Nebraska is the worst team in the conference at 1-15 in conference play this year and they are even below .500 at 7-11 in home games. Nebraska got their 1st and only win in conference play just a few weeks ago but they have lost 3 games in a row now and all 3 of those losses were by 10+ points. Iowa has been a lot better in conference play this year and with how they have looked lately, I think they are going to roll right over Nebraska in this game. I expect Iowa to win this game by 20+ here and continue their run they have been on. I like Iowa to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 86-65 Iowa. |

02-25-22 | Heat v. Knicks UNDER 212 | 115-100 | Loss | -112 | 7 h 46 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Heat/Knicks UNDER. I am on the under in the Miami Heat vs New York Knicks game on Friday. The Heat have not been putting up a lot of points in their games lately and they have also been playing well on the defensive end in their games. They haven't really put up 115+ points in their previous 4 games and they have been a lower scoring team over multiple games now. I also think they have looked good defensively and I expect them to play some good defense here against the Knicks who haven't looked that great this whole season. The Knicks have been putting up a lot of points in their games but they have been getting blown a lot lately or just losing to very bad teams. The Knicks have been a mess this year, going from making the playoffs last year and having a great season to playing like trash and with so many off the court issues. The team has agreed with Kemba Walker that he will not be playing the rest of the year and this is a very young team that is trying to put everything together. I think the Knicks are going to struggle in this game and that has been a common theme for them in their home games this year. Julius Randle has been 1 player that has really struggled this year and especially in their home games in front of the fans. I think the Knicks are going to get stopped by a good and defensive team in the Heat and I think the Heat can run away in this game while keeping the Knicks from putting up many points. I don't think the Heat will even have to score a lot of points to win this game comfortably and I think it will be a lower scoring game. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 101-87 Heat. |
|||||||
02-25-22 | Niagara v. Rider | 68-70 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 53 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Niagara. I like Niagara to cover the spread against Rider in this game on Friday. Niagara just lost 2 games in a row but they won their most recent game to end that skid and they won it over Canisius in a road game by 10+ points. Before they went on that 2 game skid, they had won 3 games in a row and were really getting hot with wins against both Iona and Monmouth during that time, 2 of what are considered to be better teams in this conference. I think Niagara can build off some of the momentum from that game and I expect them to carry it over here getting another win on the road. Niagara hasn't been great in conference play this year but neither has Rider, and while Niagara is below .500 in road games this year, Rider is only 5-5 in their home games. Rider was also getting very hot when they strung together 4 wins in a row but now they have lost 3 games in a row and have entered their own losing skid that they have yet to break out of. I think Rider is going to continue their skid here and I expect Niagara to get up for this game especially. Niagara lost to Rider at home earlier this year and that was a very close game since they only lost by 3 points. I think Niagara will be looking for revenge here and I expect them to get it by playing with some more fire than usual. I like Niagara to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 72-67 Niagara. |

02-24-22 | Stars v. Predators -143 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 16 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nashville Predators. I like the Nashville Predators to win this game against the Dallas Stars on Thursday. The Predators haven't looked lately but they just broke out of a big funk with a win in their most recent game. They beat the Panthers 6-4 in a road game and I think they can start to gain some momentum into this game now that they have won a game and ended their losing skid. They are back on home ice for this game and I expect them to be fired up to play here. They are just 4 points above the Stars in the Standings so this is a huge game for both teams since a win for the Stars inches them closer while a win for the Preds allows them to pull away more. They have looked pretty good on their home ice this year and they haven't lost a game on home ice that went past regulation. The Stars actually have a road record below .500 this year and they have looked really shaky in their games lately. They have won 3/5 games of their previous 5 but only 1 of those wins was impressive. During that time, they lost 2 games, 1 of those games was against the Coyotes where they only scored 1 goal and the other was a loss to the Avalanche where they were shut out. They also had 3 wins during that time but only 1 was impressive and that was because it was a revenge game right after they had been shut out their game before by the Avalanche. Their other 2 wins were against the Jets and the Blackhawks, who are both below the Stars in the standings, and they had to go past regulation to win both of those games. I don't like the way the Stars have looked lately, just getting by barely in a lot of these games tells me that they have a losing skid coming their way and I think it is time for them to fizzle out a bit here. The Preds have already served their time, just breaking out of a losing skid now and I think they will play hard here on home ice to maintain their lead over the Stars in the standings. I think they have looked a lot better lately and I expect them to win this game on home ice. I like the Predators to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Predators. |
|||||||
02-24-22 | Suns v. Thunder UNDER 216 | Top | 124-104 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Suns/Thunder UNDER. I am on the under in the Phoenix Suns vs Oklahoma City Thunder game on Thursday. This is going to be the 1st game back for both of these teams from the All Star break and it has pretty much been about a week since either team played together. I think both teams are going to have a slow start here due to that long layoff and I think it will take some time for both teams to get hot with their shooting again. I think a slow start in this game will set the tone nicely for an under and I also expect there to be a lot more defense in this game than these teams normally play. The Suns are going to be missing Chris Paul in this game and without that contribution to their offense, I expect the Suns to play better on defense and try to make the Thunder miss more shots. The Thunder are getting back their star player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in this game and that is going to add some kick to their rotation. He is their best player and is very dangerous with the ball when he has it in his hands so I expect the Suns to also play more defensively to counter him and try to stop the Thunder more since their offense will be a lot better here. This is also a road game for the Suns and without the crowd on their side here, I think it is even more important for them to bring a great defensive effort in this game since the Thunder will be fired up from having their star back. Just because he is back though, doesn't make the Thunder a good team and since he has been out for so long I think it will take a bit of time for the Thunder to get back into a groove with him on the court. I think this game is going to be played at a slower pace and I think both teams will give a better defensive effort than usual. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 99-90 Suns. |

02-24-22 | Marshall v. Middle Tennessee -6.5 | 65-74 | Win | 100 | 14 h 7 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Middle Tennessee State. I like Middle Tennessee State to cover the spread against Marshall in this game on Thursday. Middle Tennessee has looked really good lately with 6 wins in a row now. They have looked impressive in those wins too and have won 5/6 of those games by 8+ points which would cover the spread in this game. They have been even more impressive in their home games though, they have won 3 home games in a row by 10+ points and 6/7 of their previous 7 home games have been wins by 10+ points. They are a perfect 13-0 in their home games this year and I think they are going to continue to dominate on their home floor in this game. Their defense has been really good in their home games lately, they have not given up 65+ points to an opposing team in their 3 most recent home games. I think their defense is going to play a big factor in this game and will be the reason why they take an early lead and hang on, adding to it as the game goes on. Marshall is in last place of their group in the conference and they have really been struggling in conference play this year at 4-11. They have been very bad in their road games too, winning just 3/12 road games this year. Marshall has won 2/3 of their previous 3 games but their schedule has not been strong and has featured 2 teams of those 3 who are in last place of their respective group in the conference, not including Marshall themselves. I think they are going to have a tough time scoring points on Middle Tennessee here and I think Middle Tennessee will just blow past them on their home court as they have been doing to teams lately that are a lot better than Marshall is. I think this is going to be another Middle Tennessee home blow out. I like Middle Tennessee to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 84-64 Middle Tennessee State. |
|||||||
02-23-22 | Washington +9.5 v. Washington State | 70-78 | Win | 100 | 18 h 54 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Washington. I like Washington to cover the spread against Washington State in this game on Wednesday. Washington has lost 3 games in a row and all of their losses have been by 10+ points during that time. All 3 of those games were also against ranked teams and they had to play 2 of them as road games too. Washington is no match for those ranked teams they faced but I think they will have an easier time here try to win this game against a team of a lesser skill level. I think Washington will play hard in this game after 3 bad performances against ranked teams and I expect them to come with a fire lit under them since they are playing another Washington school. They haven't been great in their road games this year but they still have a record above .500 in conference play and I think they can hold their own in this game. Washington State hasn't been great either with a record below .500 in conference play this year and they have actually lost 5 games in a row now. They have also played 2 ranked teams in their previous 2 games and their previous 3 games were all road games too. I think they are going to be a bit tired here from the level of competition they have played and all the travel that they've had to endure with it. I expect Washington to come to play and not get destroyed by another State rival team. I also think this will be a closer game since both teams have lost a few games in a row and I expect both will be desperate for a win here when each know they could get a win against the other since neither team is really great. I think this is going to be a closer game so I like Washington to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 72-69 Washington State. |

02-23-22 | Kings -1.5 v. Coyotes | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 17 h 58 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: LA Kings -1.5. I like the LA Kings puckline in this game against the Arizona Coyotes on Wednesday. The Kings have looked good in their games lately, they have won 2 games in a row now. They have won 4/5 of their previous 5 games and 2 of those wins were by 2+ goals. They even beat the Coyotes 5-3 in their most recent game and that game was in Arizona too. Now they are facing the Coyotes again in another road game but I think they will be able to repeat here what they did to the Coyotes on Saturday. I expect them to get a good and fast start to the game with a few days of rest and the Coyotes are 1 of the worst teams in the league anyway. The Kings played their most recent game against the Coyotes but the Coyotes most recent game was not, it was actually against the Stars and they won that game 3-1 so I think that loss to the Kings won't be weighing down on their minds as much here. The Coyotes have been having a terrible year and a lot of their losses lately have been by 2+ goals. The Kings are in a position to make the playoffs at the moment and I think they will be motivated to keep playing hard in every game with how well they have been looking lately. This year is a wash for the Coyotes and I expect the Kings to beat up on them again in this game. I like the Kings on the puckline to win this game by -1.5. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Kings. |
|||||||
02-23-22 | Xavier v. Providence -1.5 | 92-99 | Win | 100 | 14 h 55 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Providence. I like Providence to cover the spread against Xavier in this game on Wednesday. Providence has looked really good in their games lately and I think they can keep that up in this game too. They have won 9/10 games of their previous 10 and their 1 loss was against Villanova who is another ranked team. That was their only home loss all year since they are 14-1 in home games and that loss came in their most recent home game too so I think they will try to respond to that game with a much better performance here. In their most recent game, they won by 1 point in a road game over Butler but they were trailing right from the start of that game. They overcame their huge deficit in that game and managed to win the game in the end. I think the will play a lot better on their home court here and Xavier has not looked good in their games lately. Xavier has really taken a dive lately and they now have a record below .500 in conference play. They are also just a measly 4-4 in road games this year and they have looked terrible lately. They have lost 2 games in a row but they only have 1/5 wins over their previous 5 games. They just lost their last 2 road games and their most recent game was a road game that they lost by 10+ points. I think Xavier has been going downhill lately and I don't see them turning things around here against 1 of the best teams in their conference and a top 25 team in the country. Providence will have a lot of confidence from their comeback win and they have looked a lot better than Xavier has anyway. I like Providence to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 75-64 Providence. |

02-22-22 | Kansas State v. Kansas -12 | 83-102 | Win | 100 | 16 h 34 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Kansas. I like Kansas to cover the spread against Kansas State in this game on Tuesday. Kansas has won 3 games in a row but they have looked really good in those games lately. Their 2 most recent games were both won by 10+ points and they were even in a road game in their most recent game. I think Kansas will play much better on their home court and they should continue playing at a high level into this game. They only have 5 games but they are in the driver's seat at the moment as they can finish at the top of the Big 12 if they win out the rest of the year. They still have 2 ranked teams left on their schedule too so I think they will use this game as a way to rack up another win and they should be able to bury them here on their home court. Kansas has won 3 home games in a row and 2 of those games were won by 15+ points. They have also dominated on their home floor this year at 13-1 and they have dominated conference play at 11-2. Kansas State hasn't been terrible this year but they are only 5-5 in road games and I think they are going to struggle in this hostile environment against 1 of the best teams in the country. Kansas barely scraped by in their earlier meeting this year with Kansas State, winning that road game by 3 points but I think being on their home court with the season winding down will be a good excuse for them to get rolling into March and I think they will want to get a much bigger win to make up for that close game last time. I like Kansas to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 80-60 Kansas. |

02-22-22 | Maple Leafs v. Blue Jackets +1.5 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 14 h 38 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Columbus Blue Jackets +1.5. I like the Columbus Blue Jackets puckline against the Toronto Maple Leafs in this game on Tuesday. The Jackets have been very hot lately and I think they are going to continue on this roll in this game on Tuesday. They have won 2 games in a row and they have won 5/6 of their previous 6 games. They have not only won 2 games in a row but they have scored 7 goals in both of those games and their scoring has been very hot over their previous 6 games too. The Leafs haven't looked good lately losing 2 games in a row and I think now is the time for the Jackets to catch them off guard and sneak a win out. Both of their 2 losses were by 3 goals and the Leafs are also on a B2B here travelling from Montreal to Columbus. The Leafs have not been great on the road lately either as they have lost 3/4 of their previous 4 road games and I think the Jackets will give a good effort against them here on home ice. The Jackets have scored 7 goals in both games of their previous 2 and the Leafs have failed to score more than 3 goals in their 2 most recent games. I think the Jackets are getting them at a good time here since they are in a bit of a scoring drought but more so their defense has been tanking lately. I think the Jackets are too at the moment to be stopped by a shaky Leafs defense and I expect the Jackets to stay in this game with a chance to win it here on home ice. Even if they don't win the game, I can see this being very close or even going past regulation so I like the Jackets on the puckline here +1.5. T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Blue Jackets. |

02-22-22 | St. Thomas v. North Dakota OVER 149 | 84-74 | Win | 100 | 8 h 35 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: St Thomas/North Dakota OVER. I am on the over in the St Thomas vs North Dakota game on Tuesday. St Thomas doesn't put up a lot of points in their games but they have been putting up 60+ points in 7 games in a row but I think they can put up more points in this game and keep it close. They have been terrible in conference play this year and they have lost 12 games in a row but North Dakota is the only team below them in conference play this year so I think this game will be close enough where both teams put up a lot of points. These 2 teams just met a few weeks ago and North Dakota won that road game 78-70 but I think St Thomas will give a much harder effort on their home court here and that was also the most recent game that St Thomas scored 70+ points in. They don't give a good defensive effort in their games though since they have given up 75+ points in 12 games in a row and a lot of those games they actually gave up 80+ points in. North Dakota has been just as bad with their defensive effort though and they have given up 70+ points in 17 games in a row, and that includes games that they have even won. North Dakota has been terrible on defense all year and they have only held 3 different opposing teams of their 29 games overall this year to less than 70 points. North Dakota has also lost 3 games in a row and their most recent win was against St Thomas too. I think both of these teams are going to try hard for a win here and they should keep the score close with each other all night. I also expect the defensive effort to be minimal from both teams in this game. I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 82-79 North Dakota. |

02-21-22 | Arizona State +14.5 v. UCLA | 52-66 | Win | 100 | 16 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Arizona State. I like Arizona State to cover the spread against UCLA in this game on Monday. Arizona State has won 3 games in a row now and they have looked really good in those games. Their 2 most recent games were both wins by 20+ points at home and they even squeaked out a road win right before those games. They haven't been great on the road this year but they did beat UCLA a few weeks ago in a home games and I think they can go into UCLA's building here and keep this game close at least. UCLA has won 2 games in a row now and both wins were by 20+ points but they just broke out of a funk that they were in and I think Arizona State can give them a good challenge here. Arizona State just won 2 games in a row by 20+ points and I think they can carry over that momentum in this game. UCLA has been giving a great defensive effort in their previous games but Arizona State has been doing the same since they have not given up 60+ points to the opposing team in 3 games in a row. I think Arizona State is going to keep playing very well on defense here since they have finally found a way to win games with their defensive effort. I think both teams will probably give a very good defensive effort here and I don't expect UCLA to run away with this game at any point. I think Arizona State will keep this game close and I like them to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 71-64 UCLA. |

02-21-22 | Florida State -1 v. Boston College | 55-71 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Florida State. I like Florida State to cover the spread against Boston College in this game on Monday. Florida State has been terrible lately and they can't seem to buy a win since they only have 1/8 wins over their previous 8 games. I still think they are a way better team than Boston College is though and I think Florida State will use this game to stop the bleeding and get what should be an easy win for them. Florida State hasn't looked good lately but they have also been playing some tougher teams in their conference and I think they are catching a break with this matchup here. Florida State is only 7-9 in conference play this year but that is a lot better than Boston College and their 4-11 record in conference play. Boston College has lost 5 games in a row, including their 2 most recent home games where they lost by 9+ points in both games. Boston College just scored 95 points in a game the other day but that game is only 1/10 of their previous 10 games that they were able to put up 70+ points in. Florida State has a much stronger offense and I think they are going to outscore Boston College in this game. Boston College hasn't looked good on defense lately either and their defensive effort has been minimal in a lot of their games lately. I expect Florida State to stop their bleeding here and get a much needed win. I like Florida State to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 73-65 Florida State. |

02-21-22 | Hurricanes v. Flyers OVER 6 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 43 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Hurricanes/Flyers OVER. I am on the over in the Carolina Hurricanes vs Philadelphia Flyers game on Monday. The Hurricanes have seen a lot of high scoring games lately with their 2 most recent games seeing a combined 6+ goals as well as 5/7 of their previous 7 games. They have also been getting hot in these previous 2 games and I think they can carry that momentum over into this game. The Hurricanes are also playing on a B2B here and I think they will be a bit tired which means that their defensive effort is going to be lacking in this game. I think their offense will be fine though since they have scored 4+ goals in 2 games in a row now and I don't see why they would just go cold in this game. The Flyers have also seen a lot of their games be high scoring lately. They have seen 6+ goals in 4 games in a row and only 1/7 of their previous 7 games haven't had that many goals combined in it. The Flyers have also scored 3+ goals in 2 games in a row and they haven't played since Thursday so I think all that rest will benefit their scoring in this game. They have even lost 4 games in a row and I think they will be looking to bounce back here with a win. I expect the Flyers to come out strong in this game and set the tone early which will force the Hurricanes to start scoring goals and catch up here. I think there is going to be a lot of goals in this game and with it being an afternoon start too, I could see the defensive effort lacking for both teams here in this game. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Flyers. |

02-20-22 | Golden Knights -155 v. Sharks | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 13 h 0 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Vegas Golden Knights. I like the Vegas Golden Knights to win this game against the San Jose Sharks on Sunday. Vegas has lost 3 games in a row now but I think they can stop the bleeding here and get a win over the Sharks. They were shut out in 2 games in a row but they finally got some goals on the board and scored 3 in their most recent game. They went on to lose in OT to the Kings after blowing a late lead but I think they are going to come to play a lot better after 2 disappointing performances in a row on home ice. The Sharks have been in a huge skid lately losing 5 games in a row and they have only won 1/8 of their previous 8 games. They have already lost 2 in a row at home and I expect them to make it 3 here. The Sharks have a history with Vegas and they have become rivals going all the way back to when Vegas 1st came into the league and these 2 met each other in the playoffs a few times. Vegas will get up for this game and I expect them to be motivated to get the win over the Sharks here knowing the Sharks have been in a huge skid and they can break out of their own funk. The Golden Knights came close to winning the other night but lost it in OT. I think they are going to tighten up on defense here to make sure they don't blow another lead. Vegas is also a lot better than the Sharks just in general, Vegas will be in the playoffs this year and the Sharks will not be. I like Vegas to break out of their funk here and win this game over the Sharks. T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Golden Knights. |

02-20-22 | Marquette v. Creighton -1 | 82-83 | Push | 0 | 8 h 56 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Creighton. I like Creighton to cover the spread against Marquette in this game on Sunday. Creighton has won 4 games in a row now and they have looked really good in those games. They have won their 3 most recent games by 10+ points and I think they are continue playing great in this game too. They have looked great at home this year at 9-3 and they have been climbing up the standings lately with their surge that they are on. I think Creighton can get the win here on their home court, especially when Marquette has a road record below .500. Marquette just won their most recent game but they had lost 2 in a row before getting that win and both of those losses were in road games too. They have lost 3 road games in a row now and I think they are going to continue struggling in road games here. Creighton has looked a lot better lately and they have been winning their games by big margins. I think they can come away with a win over Marquette since Marquette has been giving up a lot of points lately. They have given up 80+ points in 2/3 of their previous 3 games and they have done it in their 2 most recent road games too. Creighton has been putting out a very good defensive effort lately, they have given up 70+ points in 1/4 of their previous 4 games and they even gave up less than 60 points in 2 of those games. Marquette has been up and down lately and I think they will struggle in this road game like they have for most of the year. Creighton is surging at the moment and with the season winding down they will come to play their best basketball here. I like Creighton to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 77-69 Creighton. |
|||||||
02-20-22 | NJIT -1 v. Maine | 61-65 | Loss | -115 | 6 h 56 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: NJIT. I like NJIT to cover the spread against Maine in this game on Sunday. NJIT hasn't been having a good year but they have looked a lot better in their games lately. They have won 3/4 of their previous 4 games and I think they can win another here. NJIT hasn't been great in their road games this year but they haven't been terrible either at 5-6. They have also struggled in their conference play but so has Maine who is occupying the last place spot in their conference. NJIT won their most recent road game too and even though they haven't had things go their way this year, they still have 11/24 wins this year while Maine only has 5/25 wins this year. Maine has been terrible this year and they can't even catch a break in their home games sine they are 4-7 this year. NJIT is at least a respectable 6-8 in conference play too but Maine is 2-12 and they can't get anything going for them. Maine has lost 2 games in a row now but they only have 1 win over their previous 8 games and I think they are going to lose another game here. Both of their 2 most recent losses were by 10+ points and 1 of the games was even on their home court. They have actually lost 3 home games in a row and all of those losses were by 10+ points. I think Maine is the worst team in this conference by far and I expect NJIT to come into their building and pull off the win. I like NJIT to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 69-63 NJIT. |

02-19-22 | Ducks v. Canucks UNDER 5.5 | 7-4 | Loss | -105 | 14 h 32 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Ducks/Canucks UNDER. I am on the under in the Anaheim Ducks vs Vancouver Canucks game on Saturday. The Ducks haven't looked good lately losing 4 games in a row and they haven't been scoring much in these games either. Their defense has been terrible though and they have given up 4+ goals in 3 games in a row. This is going to be the 3rd game of a road trip through Western Canada for them and with 2 losses already, I expect them to tighten up on defense here and try to come away from their road trip with some sort of points. This is the worst team that they will see on their road trip too so this is the best chance they are going to get. The Canucks have won 2 games in a row but they have just returned from San Jose and I think they are going to be due for a bit of a let down here in their 1st game back at home. The Canucks have looked great on defense though and I think this is a game where they will play more defensively since their team could be a bit tired from the travel and the OT game in their most recent one. I'm expecting an underwhelming performance from both teams scorers here and I think this will be a game that the defense and goalies play well in. These teams are very close in the standings too so I don't think either team will be so quick to let in a goal tonight. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Canucks. |
|||||||
02-19-22 | Colorado v. Stanford -2.5 | 70-53 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 29 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Stanford. I like Stanford to cover the spread against Colorado in this game on Saturday. Stanford has looked shaky in their games lately but i think they can stop the bleeding here and get a win over Colorado. Stanford is 10-4 in home games this year and their defensive play has looked a lot better in their games lately. They haven't given up 70+ points to the opposing team in 3 in a row now and I think they can keep that going here. They have only played 1 home game over their previous 3 but that game ended in a win for them. I think they will give a good defensive effort here on their home court and they will be motivated to put an end to the streak Colorado is on. Colorado has won 4 games in a row but they are only 4-4 in road games this year. Also, all 4 of those wins were against the worst 3 teams in their conference and I think they are going to have a much tougher challenge here with Stanford. Colorado has also played their 2 most recent games on the road and I think this 3rd road game in a row against a much better team than what they have seen lately is going to get to them. I think Stanford will give a good defensive effort here being on their home floor and that should be enough to edge out Colorado here who can get derailed quickly if their shooting goes cold. Colorado's previous 3 losses were all game where they couldn't put up more than 60 points and I think this will be another one of those games where they will struggle. I like Stanford to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 71-62 Stanford. |

02-19-22 | Georgetown +20.5 v. Villanova | 66-74 | Win | 100 | 8 h 29 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Georgetown. I like Georgetown to cover the spread against Villanova in this game on Saturday. Georgetown has lost 15 games in a row and they don't have a single win in conference play this year but it is highly unlikely that will stay like that until the end of the year, statistically speaking. They only have 5 games left and not much opportunity to get a win but I think they will be more motivated than ever to play their tails off here and try to get that 1st win in conference play. They haven't looked terrible in their games lately either, they have lost 4 games in a row by 10+ points but none of those losses were by more than 14 points. I think they are going to play hard here and I expect them to keep this game close at least even if they still lose. The last time they played Villanova they were leading for most of the 1st half but collapsed in the 2nd half and ended up losing by 11 points. Villanova hasn't been playing their best lately anyway. Villanova has won 4 games in a row but their 3 most recent games have all been wins by less than 10 points. Even at home their previous 3 wins were not by more than 11 points in any of them. I think Georgetown is going to play desperate in this game and with how Villanova has looked lately, Georgetown should be able to keep this game close at least even if they don't win it. I like Georgetown to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 77-67 Villanova. |
|||||||
02-19-22 | Clemson v. Louisville +1 | 61-70 | Win | 100 | 6 h 28 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Louisville. I like Louisville to cover the spread against the Clemson in this game on Saturday. Louisville has lost 7 games in a row but I think they are going to stop the bleeding here. Their 2 most recent games they have looked much better in and have kept those games closer with good defense too. I think Louisville will have a better time playing well on defense on their home court here and Clemson is actually lower in the standings than they are. Louisville has lost 4/5 of their previous 5 games to teams that are in the top 4 of this conference at the moment. I think they will catch a break here with Clemson and they should be able to get this win. Clemson is 2-7 in road games this year and they actually have a worse record than Louisville does in conference play. Clemson hasn't looked great lately either losing 5 games in a row and 2/3 of their previous 3 losses were by 10+ points. Clemson has also given up 75+ points to the opposing team in 4 games in a row and I think their lack of defense here will be the nail in their coffin. Louisville will play better on their home court and their defensive play has also been a lot better and I think that will give them an edge in this game. I like Louisville to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 73-65 Louisville. |

02-19-22 | Texas Tech v. Texas -3 | Top | 61-55 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 0 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Texas. I like Texas to cover the spread against Texas Tech in this game on Saturday. Texas has won 3/4 games of their previous 4 and they just won their most recent game. They have looked really good at home this year at 15-1 and I think they can get the win over Texas Tech on their home court here. They have won 4 games in a row on their home court and have even won 2 of those over ranked teams. I think Texas has looked really good with their defense lately too and I think they will get some key stops and turnovers here to get the edge in this game. They are giving up less than 60 points per game and I think their defensive play is going to be key for them in winning this game. Texas Tech hasn't been great in road games this year either at 2-5 and I think Texas will get the better of them on their home court here. Texas Tech has won 2 games in a row but both of those wins were at home and their last loss came in a road game by 10+ points. Texas Tech hasn't looked as good as Texas with their defense and I think Texas is going to be able to put up more points on them. Texas also lost in a road game to Texas tech at the beginning of this month so that loss will still be on their mind in this game. I expect Texas to come motivated to play here and I think they can get the win here. I like Texas to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 72-66 Texas. |

02-18-22 | Wright State v. Oakland -4 | 78-74 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 19 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Oakland. I like Oakland to cover the spread against Wright State in this game on Friday. Oakland has won 2 games in a row now and I think they are going to make that 3 games in a row here. Oakland has been having a great year in their conference play, they are 12-4 in conference play and have the 2nd place spot at the moment but a win here can tie Cleveland State in conference record for 1st place. Oakland is a perfect 8-0 in their home games this year and they just won their most recent game by 15+ points on their home court. Of those 8 home games this year, only 1 of them was not won by 10+ points and I think Oakland is going to do what they usually do on their home court and win this game by 10+ points here. They have looked really good on their home court all year and the opposing team here, Wright State, is just a measly 6-6 in road games this year. They are still 12-6 in conference play this year but most of their wins have been in conference play since they are only 15-12 overall this year and I think Oakland is just a much better team. Wright State has lost 2 games in a row and I don't think they are going to turn things around here in this road game when they haven't looked that great lately. They have a loss to Milwaukee in their previous 2 games, who is having a terrible year, and their most recent loss was against Northern Kentucky who is playing very well this year but Oakland has been performing even better than them. I think Oakland is building up 1 final run here with few games left in the season and I expect them to play hard here to try and win out the rest of the year. Wright State had a good run but they look like they have been running out of gas lately and I can't trust them to play well here in this road game when Oakland has looked really good lately. I like Oakland to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 75-64 Oakland. |

02-18-22 | Stars -145 v. Blackhawks | Top | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 15 h 53 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dallas Stars. I like the Dallas Stars to win this game against the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday. The Stars have looked good lately and they only have the 1 loss in their previous 4 games. That loss was against Avalanche but they got their revenge on them 2 days later, beating them 4-1 in a road game after getting shut out 4-0 by them on home ice in their game before. The Stars responded well in that game and I think they are going to continue playing at a high level here. The Stars have looked ridiculously good in their road games lately winning 5 road games in a row and their 3 most recent road games have all been won by 2+ goals. The Blackhawks have lost 2/3 games of their previous 3 but they have not looked good all year and this season is going to end in failure for them since they have been 1 of the worst teams in the West this year and are 10+ points out of wild card spot, and they have even played more games than most teams in the West. They are on the lower end of the scale when it comes to goals for in the NHL this year but even in the games that they do score a lot of goals in, their defense can't even hang in there for them. Their most recent game was a loss to the Blue Jackets, who aren't going to be a playoff team this year either, but even in a game where they scored 4 goals they gave up 7 to the Jackets, and they have had their own issues with scoring in some of their games this year. The Stars are definitely destined for the playoffs this year, they have a really good team with lots of talent but right now they are on the outside looking in and they need to start stringing some wins together to get in better position. I think the Stars are going to start going on a run here and I like how they have looked in their road games lately. I like the Stars to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Stars. |

02-17-22 | Canucks -110 v. Sharks | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 17 h 54 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Vancouver Canucks. I like the Vancouver Canucks to win this game against the San Jose Sharks on Thursday. The Canucks have been alternating between wins and losses over their previous 8 games but they just won their most recent game over the Leafs and I think they should have some momentum after that win, carrying it over into this game. The Canucks held the Leafs to 2 goals in that game and they have looked a lot better on defense lately, keeping more pucks out of their net now than when they under their old coach. The Sharks have had a rough year and they are back near the bottom of the standings where they belong. They haven't looked good lately, losing 4 games in a row and they were just shut out on home ice in their most recent game by the Oilers who haven't been playing that great either. The Sharks have not been able to score goals lately and I think that is going to be a major problem here. They have only scored 3 goals in their previous 3 games and if that's all they can do here then they are not winning this game since the Canucks have looked a lot better defensively in the new year. I don't think the Sharks can score in this game with how bad their offense has been lately and it also doesn't help that they are missing their star on defense Erik Karlsson. I think the Canucks will have no problem scoring goals on the Sharks here and rolling all over them in this road game while the Sharks continue their scoring troubles into this game. I like the Canucks to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-0 Canucks. |

02-17-22 | Wizards v. Nets OVER 218 | Top | 117-103 | Win | 100 | 14 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Wizards/Nets OVER. I am on the over in the Washington Wizards vs Brooklyn Nets game on Thursday. The Wizards have been putting up 100+ points in 5 games in a row now and their defensive effort hasn't been that great in those games either since they have given up 100+ points in 4 of those games. They just lost their most recent game to the Pacers who don't have a lot of talent left on their team after being a big seller before the trade deadline passed and I think that loss is rubbing them the wrong way. They are on a B2B here and I think that will help them put that loss in the rear view mirror and focus on the Nets here who have been having their own issues lately. The Wizards made a trade for Kristaps Porzingis to help them with their defense but he is still out with an injury and until he returns I don't see the Wizards playing well on defense and forcing turnovers when they need them. The Nets just won their most recent game making it 2 in a row for them and they were even down by 20+ points in that game before making a comeback and winning over the Knicks. The Nets have been putting up 100+ points in 4 games in a row but their defense has been terrible and it has been a problem for them all year. The Nets have given up 100+ points to every opposing team except for 1 in all of their games going back to December 7. Their defensive effort has been terrible all year and I think the Wizards will be able to put up a ton of points on them here and I expect them to be motivated to win after that loss to the Pacers. It took a lot for the Nets to come back against the Knicks and they are also on a B2B here, I think the Nets will be tired from that Knicks game and I expect the effort they put out on defense to suffer because of it. The Nets will also put up points though since this is a revenge game for them after losing to the Wizards on Feb 10 113-112 and the Wizards have been blowing a lot of leads lately so I don't expect them to have a good effort on defense either. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 124-120 Nets. |

02-17-22 | East Carolina v. South Florida | 65-57 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 20 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: South Florida. I like South Florida to cover the spread against East Carolina in this game on Thursday. South Florida has lost 3 games in a row now and I think it is time for them to end that losing skid with a win here on their home court. South Florida hasn't been great this year but neither has East Carolina and I think this is a good spot for South Florida to win a game. East Carolina has been struggling in their conference play just like South Florida and they are 3-9 this year. East Carolina has also had issues in their road games though and they are 1-5 in road games this year. East Carolina did win over Tulsa over a week ago, giving them their 1st road win this year, but they have still lost 7/8 games of their previous 8 and they haven't looked good lately. The win over Tulsa isn't impressive since Tulsa is the only team in their conference that is lower in the standings than both East Carolina and South Florida. Their 3 most recent road games were all losses by 10+ points and 2 of those losses were even by 20+ points. Both of these teams have been bad all year but South Florida has a much better chance of winning this game on their home court and I think they are due for a bounce back win here. East Carolina has had issues in road games lately and those issues have gone on all year, I don't see them playing well in this road game since they haven't in most of their road games. I like South Florida to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 67-62 South Florida. |

02-16-22 | Jazz v. Lakers +5 | 101-106 | Win | 100 | 17 h 57 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: LA Lakers. I like the LA Lakers to cover the spread against the Utah Jazz in this game on Wednesday. The Lakers have lost 3 games in a row but their 2 most recent games were both very close losses by 2 points and I think they are going to be looking to bounce back in this game. They looked really good in their previous game against a healthy Golden State team but just fell short in that game losing by 2 points. Both of those close losses by 2 points were in road games but I think the Lakers should have an easier time here on their home court. They also played their previous game on Saturday and I think with the older players on their team that will help them come out faster and stronger in this game. I expect the Lakers to set the tone early in this game with LeBron and Davis and these are the types of teams they need to beat if they are going to make a run in the playoffs once they get there. The Jazz have won 6 games in a row but all of those wins were home games and they have actually lost 5 road games in a row now. They also played a lot of bad teams and good teams with injured players in these home wins. I think the Jazz are going to underperform in this road game like they have been lately and I think the Lakers will be motivated to get this win after 2 close losses. The Lakers have been a lot better on their home court this year and I think they can pull off an upset in this game. I like the Lakers to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 117-113 Lakers. |

02-16-22 | Pittsburgh v. North Carolina -13 | 76-67 | Loss | -115 | 15 h 48 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: North Carolina. I like North Carolina to cover the spread against Pittsburgh in this game on Wednesday. North Carolina looked a lot better in their most recent game after 2 bad ones and I think they will be able to beat up on Pittsburgh here on their home court. North Carolina have looked even better on their home court this year and most of their games there have been big wins for them. They are 13-1 in home games this year with 12 of those wins coming by 10+ points and the 1 loss they suffered at home was to Duke who is 1 of the best teams in the country. Every other home game in conference play that they have played this year ended as a win for them by 10+ points too. Pittsburgh is not 1 of the better teams in this conference and I don't think they will be able to keep up with North Carolina in this road game. Pittsburgh has struggled in conference play this year with a 5-10 record but even worse they are 2-8 in road games. They have won 2 games in a row now but they haven't really played any of the good teams in this conference during that time and North Carolina is a top 3 team at the moment. Pittsburgh has also lost most of their road games in conference play this year by 10+ points too. I think North Carolina will continue to play well on their home court here and I expect them to get a blowout win here to get back into their groove while Pittsburgh continues to have issues in their road games. I like North Carolina to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 87-67 North Carolina. |

02-16-22 | Panthers v. Hurricanes -128 | 3-2 | Loss | -128 | 14 h 22 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Carolina Hurricanes. I like the Carolina Hurricanes to win this game against the Florida Panthers on Wednesday. The Hurricanes just lost their most recent game to the Wild 3-2 but they were down 3-0 in that game before making a comeback just to fall short anyway. They haven't been winning many games lately losing 3/4 of their previous 4 games but all 3 of those losses were by 1 goal and I think it is time for them to bounce back here. The Hurricanes are still a top team in the league this year and they have been playing great for most of the year, just hitting a mini slump now. I think they can break out of their funk with a win on home ice over the Panthers though. The Panthers are also 1 of the top teams in the league this year but lately they have not looked good in their road games. They just lost their last game to the Rangers 5-2 and 2/4 of their previous road games have been losses. They even lost 1 of those games to the Kraken who are 1 of the worst teams in the league. I think the Panthers will struggle in this road game against another top team in the league and I think the Hurricanes will be hungry to win after a few close losses by 1 goal. The Hurricanes are too talented to keep losing this many games and it is only a matter of time until they break a game open with their potent scoring offense and get a win going back on a roll. I think that roll can start here with a win on home ice for them against a Panthers team that has had issues in road games lately. I like the Hurricanes to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Hurricanes. |

02-15-22 | Arkansas v. Missouri +7.5 | 76-57 | Loss | -107 | 8 h 19 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Missouri. I like Missouri to cover the spread against Arkansas in this game on Tuesday. Missouri has looked a lot better in their games lately and I think they have been improving a lot in those games. They are only 7-5 in their home games this year but they have looked really good in a lot of those games and even the games they have lost in have only been by a few points in a lot of them. I think they can keep up with Arkansas on their home court and they have looked a lot better winning 2/3 of their previous 3 games. They have been great on their home court in conference play too, they only won 2/5 games but the 3 games they lost 2 of them were by 1 point and the other was by 3 points. Arkansas has looked really good in their games lately too, putting together a huge win streak that was ended by Auburn but they haven't looked great in their road games this year and I think they will struggle against Missouri here. Arkansas is only 3-3 in road games this year and all 3 of their losses have been in conference play. They just lost their most recent game by 1 point to Alabama and that was a road game too. Arkansas has not blown out many teams in their road games this year and I don't think they will be able to here with an improving Missouri team coming their way. I think Missouri will keep this game close at home, I like Missouri to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 72-68 Arkansas. |

02-15-22 | Grizzlies v. Pelicans +4.5 | 121-109 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 28 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: New Orleans Pelicans. I like the New Orleans Pelicans to cover the spread against the Memphis Grizzlies in this game on Tuesday. The Pelicans made some moves before the trade deadline last week to acquire some good players to try and make a playoff push and they really showed up in their most recent game. After struggling in their 1st few games together, the Pelicans looked a lot better last night when they beat the Raptors by 30 points on their home court. They are on their home court again in this game and I think the Pelicans have a chance to even win here now that their team is starting to mesh together on the court. I think the Pelicans made some good moves to help them make it to the playoffs this year in 1 of the final spots and I expect the results to start showing soon. They are catching the Grizzlies at a very good time here since Ja Morant will likely miss this game and that should put a bit of a damper on things for the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies have already won 5 games in a row but their most recent game was a win over the Hornets in a road game and that was their 1st win on this win streak that wasn't by 10+ points. They were also trailing in that game and had to make a comeback before finally taking the lead and keeping it. This is the last game of a road trip for the Grizzlies too and I think they will be tired and underperform in this game after their performance last time out. The Pelicans are going to start to get hot soon and I think that has already started with their win over the Raptors last night. I think the Pelicans can win this game so I like them to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 114-109 Pelicans. |

02-15-22 | Bruins v. Rangers -140 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 6 h 22 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: New York Rangers. I like the New York Rangers to win this game on Tuesday against the Boston Bruins. The Rangers have won 2 games in a row and I think they are going to continue winning games with another win on home ice over the Bruins here. The Rangers are in 3rd place in their division but it is a very tight race at the moment and they are clearly 1 of the best teams in the league this year. They should have a lot of confidence since they just won on home ice by 3 goals over the Florida Panthers who really do look to be the best team this year in the league and have the most points in the East. The Bruins are on the outside looking in at the moment for a playoff spot in their division but they have only won 2/5 games in their previous 5. They just won their most recent game 2-0 in Ottawa but the Senators are 1 of the worst teams in the East and that win really isn't impressive at all. When put up against much more respectable teams lately, the Bruins have fallen short with losses to the Hurricanes, Penguins, and Stars. They only lost to the Penguins 4-2 but their other 2 losses were 6-0 and 6-1 against the Hurricanes and Stars and I think they are going to be in for the same here in a road game against the Rangers who are just as good as those 3 teams mentioned before. The Rangers have been rebuilding for years and now that they have a good team that can compete, they have their sights set on nothing less than a Stanley Cup. The Bruins are not the same team that they have been in the past years and they will have a much better and younger team get the best of them here. I like the Rangers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Rangers. |

02-14-22 | Oilers -138 v. Sharks | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 17 h 14 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Edmonton Oilers. I like the Edmonton Oilers to win this game against the San Jose Sharks on Monday. The Oilers finally snapped out of their funk lately with a win in their most recent game. They had lost 2 games in a row but just beat the Islanders on home ice 3-1 and their defense was impressive in that game. They looked a lot better overall and I think the Oilers will start to get back on track and win some more games again. The Sharks started the year off strong but they have been slipping in the standings a lot lately and are now in 2nd last place in their division, right above the Kraken. The Sharks have lost 3 games in a row now, all of those losses were by 1 goal but their scoring has dried up a bit lately and I think they aren't going to be able to score on this Oilers defense which looked a lot better in their previous game. The Sharks have actually not been playing well for a while now and they only have 1 win in their previous 6 games. They haven't been scoring a lot of goals in most of those games either and I think that will come back to bite them here. The Oilers looked better on defense in their previous game so I think they can continue that in this game making it difficult for the Sharks to score but they have already been struggling to score goals lately and I think this game could be a recipe for disaster for them. The Oilers will have some confidence after their previous win and I think the frustration is building up for the Sharks losing so many close games lately. These teams are in completely different stages, the Oilers are supposed to be a very good team that belongs in the playoffs every year while the Sharks have been rebuilding and have nowhere near the talent that the Oilers have. I like the Oilers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Oilers. |

02-14-22 | Blazers v. Bucks -15 | 122-107 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 51 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Bucks. I like the Milwaukee Bucks to cover the spread against the Portland Trail Blazers in this game on Monday. The Bucks have looked good in their games lately but they just lost their most recent game and I think that they are going to bounce back in a big way in this game. They had won 4 games in a row before losing that game and it was a pretty big loss for them too. They lost to the Suns by 20+ points and were completely dominated for 3 quarters of that game. I think that loss was quite the embarrassment for them and I think they will be motivated to get it back here and play much better in this game. The Bucks have been climbing the standings slowly over the last few weeks and as the season starts to wind down now, I expect them to start going on big runs and get themselves into a good position going into the playoffs. They just played the Blazers last week too and they destroyed them in that game, winning by 29 points and scoring 130+ in the game. The Blazers have been having a terrible year and they just gave up a few of their players at the trade deadline that could have been helping them win more games. I think the Blazers are going to start slipping even more and will not end up making the playoffs in one of those final spots. The Blazers have won 2 games in a row but both of those wins were home games and they were both against teams that have been struggling lately such as the Lakers and the Knicks. The Blazers had lost 6 games in a row before winning those 2 and I think they are going to get back to their ways of getting blown out in games here. The Bucks are going to be looking to take out their anger from their bad loss to the Suns here and I think they will be too much for the Blazers to stop. I like the Bucks to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 134-109 Bucks. |

02-14-22 | Duquesne v. Davidson -12.5 | 61-72 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 40 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Davidson. I like Davidson to cover the spread against Duquesne in this game on Monday. Davidson just lost their most recent game to Rhode Island but that game was on the road and they had won 4 games in a row before that loss. Davidson has looked a lot better in their home games lately than in their road games and I think they will play a lot better in this game. They are leading their conference with a 10-2 record in conference play and they have been a stout 9-1 on their home court this year. Their previous 3 home wins in conference play were all by 10 points or less but they were also all north of 7 points and I think Davidson should be able to handle Duquesne, who is the worst team in the conference at the moment, pretty easily on their home court here. This is still the same team that put together a 15 game win streak earlier this year and right now they are in the driver seat since they have a clear path to their conference title. I expect them to beat up on a bad team here on their home court and take advantage of what should be an easy conference win for them. Duquesne not only has the worst overall record in their conference, but they are also in last place with a 1-9 record in conference play and they have been just as bad in road games winning 1/7 this year. They won their very 1st game in conference play this year but have lost 9 in a row now and haven't been able to pick up another conference win this year. Duquesne has been blown out in their previous 3 road games and I think they won't be able to match up with Davidson in this game. I like Davidson to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 79-57 Davidson. |

02-13-22 | Rams v. Bengals UNDER 48.5 | Top | 23-20 | Win | 100 | 201 h 7 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rams/Bengals UNDER. I am on the under in the LA Rams vs Cincinnati Bengals Super Bowl game on February 13 this year. The Rams are known for their very heavy offense that loves to put up a lot of points in their games but the Rams also have a great defense and a lot of talented players on that side of the ball too. They showed that they can battle it out in a low scoring and more defensive game with their 20-17 win over the 49ers in the NFC Championship game. The 49ers have a very good defense and they were able to hold the Rams to 20 points in that game. I think that this game will also be more defensive since both teams have looked good on defense lately. The Rams have already held 2 different playoff teams to less than 20 points in these playoffs alone. The game that they didn't was the game they won over the Buccaneers but their defense had the clamp down on the Bucs offense for 3 quarters of that game. The Bengals have a very good offense but Joe Mixon will have a hard time running into Donald and Miller all game. They could also attack through the air with Ja'Marr Chase but he has to deal with Jalen Ramsey and all the other talented players they have lurking in the secondary. I don't think the Bengals offense is going to be doing much against the Rams defense here and the Bengals offense hasn't even been putting up a lot of points in their games lately. Their defense has also been stepping up in their games like in their previous game they stepped up in the 2nd half and only allowed 3 points by the Chiefs. I think the Bengals defense is going to continue to step up here and get some big stops in this game for them but I also think the Bengals are not good enough on offense to put up a lot of points on this defense. I think this is going to be a game that doesn't have a ton of points in it so I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 21-14 Rams. |

02-13-22 | Hawks +6.5 v. Celtics | 95-105 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 26 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Atlanta Hawks. I like the Atlanta Hawks to cover the spread against the Boston Celtics in this game on Sunday. The Hawks have lost 3/4 games in their previous 4 and they just lost in their most recent game to the Spurs by 15 points and that was on their home court. I think they are going to be looking to bounce back in a big way after that embarrassing loss on their home court to 1 of the worst teams in the West. The Hawks are in 10th in the East and I think they are going to start turning on the jets now. They have a few teams right on their tail for that final play in spot and after making the playoffs last year, anything short of another trip to the postseason would be a failure of a season for them. The Celtics have won 7 games in a row but the last team that they lost a game too was the Hawks. They haven't had any success against the Hawks lately and they are 0-2 against them this year. The Celtics have started to fade a bit with their play lately, they were winning a lot of their games by impressive margins but they just won their most recent game on their home court by 6 points and against the Nuggets who haven't looked that dominant in their games lately. I think this big run for the Celtics is coming to an end soon and I think the Hawks are the perfect team to try and end it since the Celtics haven't been able to beat them yet this year. I think the Hawks are going to snap out of their funk here and even if they don't pull of an upset here, they will keep the game close. I like the Hawks to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 109-106 Hawks. |

02-13-22 | Sabres v. Canadiens +107 | 5-3 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 51 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Montreal Canadiens. I like the Montreal Canadiens to win this game against the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday. The Canadiens have lost 9 games in a row and they are the worst team in the league at the moment. They are the only team in the league that doesn't have 10+ wins yet and the situation has gotten so bad that they just fired their coach. I think this could be the turning point for the team and usually a coaching change will shake things up like when the Canucks fired their head coach earlier this year and have been much improved since then. I think the Canadiens are going to play much better now and I expect them to break out of their funk here on home ice. The Sabres are right above them in the standings and they haven't been having a good year since they are also 1 of the worst teams in the league this year. The Sabres have lost 3 games in a row themselves and they have lost 4/5 of their previous 5 games with their only win coming against the Coyotes who are the worst team in the West. They haven't been scoring a lot of goals in their road games either and they have only scored more than 2 goals in 1/4 of their previous 4 road games. This is also an afternoon start time and I think that will make both teams a bit slow and sluggish to start this game. I expect the Canadiens to be hungry to end their skid here and take advantage of the slumping Sabres off to a slow start. I think this is the best chance for the Canadiens to get a win and start turning the page here on home ice. I like the Canadiens to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Canadiens. |

02-13-22 | Robert Morris v. Youngstown State -7 | 73-68 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 17 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Youngstown State. I like Youngstown State to cover the spread against Robert Morris in this game on Sunday. Youngstown State has won 6 games in a row now and they have looked good in those games lately. They just won their most recent game by 10+ points and 3/4 of their previous 4 home games have been won by 10+ points too, with the other being a win by 7 over Oakland. I like the defensive effort that they have been giving in their games lately too, they have only given up 70+ points in 1 game of their previous 4. They have also looked good in most of their home games this year and their games in conference play. I can't say the same for Robert Morris though, they have been terrible in conference play this year and even worse in their road games. They are 4-12 in conference play and 2-11 in road games and I don't think they are going to have much of a chance on the road against Youngstown State who has looked really good lately. Robert Morris has lost 2 games in a row, only 1 of those games were lost by 10+ points but they were both at home too. Their most recent road game was a win over IUPUI who doesn't even have a win in conference play this year but their 4 road games before that were all losses and most of them were not even close. I think Youngstown State has been rolling lately and I don't think Robert Morris is going to be the team that is going to slow them down with how bad they have been this year. I like Youngstown State to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 75-64 Youngstown State. |

02-12-22 | Magic v. Suns UNDER 225.5 | 105-132 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 24 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Magic/Suns UNDER. I am on the under in the Orlando Magic vs Phoenix Suns game on Saturday. The Magic are 1 of the worst teams in the East this year and they haven't looked good at all lately. They have put up 100+ points in just 1/3 games in their previous 3 but all 3 of those games had 1 team score less than 100 points in the game. I think that is going to continue here since the Suns are the best team in the league at the moment and they play defense well in their games. I don't see the Magic putting up a lot of points on the Suns in this game and the Suns don't really need to score a ton of points themselves in their games so I think this will be a lower scoring game. The Suns have been putting up a lot of points lately but that is because they have been playing some of the best teams in the league but I don't expect that to happen here. They just destroyed the Bucks in their most recent game 131-107 but that was revenge for them from the NBA Championship and I think they put a lot of effort in that game to make a point of blowing them out. I expect them to be more tired from their effort in that game and I think they will play a slower game here. I don't think the Magic are going to go on a ton of scoring runs in the game either so I don't see the Suns scoring a lot of points here to keep up in this game. They should jump out to an early lead on their home court here and cruise the rest of the way once their lead gets to 10+ points. I expect another Suns blowout here but with a lot less resistance and I don't see the Magic even getting to 100 points here. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 111-89 Suns. |

02-12-22 | Ole Miss v. Missouri -1.5 | 68-74 | Win | 100 | 13 h 44 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Missouri. I like Missouri to cover the spread against Ole Miss in this game on Saturday. Missouri hasn't looked great lately winning 1/6 games in their previous 6 and they just lost their most recent game by 8 to Vanderbilt. Ole Miss hasn't looked any better though and I think Missouri can get a win here on their home court in this game. They have not been having a good year but they are above .500 in their home games this year and I think this is their best shot to win a game and start to build some momentum in this final stretch of the year. They have lost 3 home games in a row but they have looked really good in those games and were very close to beating some very good teams. All 3 of those losses were within 3 points and 1 of those losses was even by 1 point against Auburn who was ranked 1st in the country at the time. They have even upset Alabama on their home court this year. Ole Miss is lower in than the standings than Missouri is and they have struggled a lot in conference play this year winning just 3/11 games. They have also looked terrible in their road games with wins in 1/5 road games this year. They have lost 2 games in a row and I think they are going to continue to skid here in a hostile environment against a team that has looked good on their home court and has been able to compete with some really good teams on their home floor. I think Missouri is playing better and I like them to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 76-70 Missouri. |

02-12-22 | Hurricanes -105 v. Wild | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 18 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Carolina Hurricanes. I like the Carolina Hurricanes to win this game against the Minnesota Wild on Saturday. The Hurricanes just lost 2 close games in Canada losing by 1 goal in both games but they bounced back in their most recent game with a 6-0 slaughter of the Bruins in a road game. Now that they have the taste of winning again and are coming off such a strong performance, I think the Hurricanes can start building their win streak again and I expect them to get the win in Minnesota here. The Hurricanes are in 1st place in the Metropolitan Division but they have been 1 of the strongest teams in the league for years now. The Bruins are not a bad team and it takes a lot of skill to shut them out on their home ice but the Hurricanes still did and they put up 6 goals in the game too just to add some salt in the wound. The Wild had won 6 games in a row but they just lost their most recent game to the jets and they were shut out in that game. This is their 1st game back from a road trip too and I expect them to come out a bit slow and sluggish in this game. I think the Wild has lost a lot of their momentum from their big run of 6 wins in a row and I think they are going to go into a mini slump before breaking out and winning again. The Wild have looked very good on home ice lately but they have also been playing some really bad teams and I think they aren't going to be able to handle what the Hurricanes bring their way in this game. The Hurricanes are on a mission to finish with the most points and I see them starting to roll for the rest of the year. They are built much stronger than the Wild are and they should have no trouble winning this game. I like the Hurricanes to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Hurricanes. |

02-12-22 | Delaware State v. Howard -18.5 | 72-85 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 15 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Howard. I like Howard to cover the spread against Delaware State in this game on Saturday. Howard has won 3 games in a row and they just won their most recent game by 50+ points on their home court. They held the opposing team to less than 40 points and I think they can continue to play great defense in this game too. They haven't given up 70+ points to the opposing team in 4 games in a row and I think their great defense will be what helps them pull away in this game and cover the spread here. They just played Delaware State less than 1 week ago and they only won that road game by 5 points. I think they can do much better when they're on their home court again and I expect them to lay a beating on Delaware State here. Delaware State is the worst team in their conference and they are only 2-18 overall this year. They haven't won a game in conference play yet losing all 7 and they have been terrible in road games too losing all 8 of their road games. Delaware State has only won 2 games this year but they have lost 16 games in a row since that previous win. They don't put up a lot of points either and have only put up 60+ points in 1 game of their previous 3. I think Howard can take advantage of them here on their home court and I expect a Howard to pull away early in this game. I like Howard to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 75-47 Howard. |

02-12-22 | Lafayette v. Lehigh -3.5 | 73-69 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 16 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Lehigh. I like Lehigh to cover the spread against Lafayette in this game on Saturday. Lehigh has lost 2 games in a row now but I think it is time for them to bounce back here. They just lost their most recent game to Colgate by 15+ points on the road and I was on Colgate in that game but now I like Lehigh to bounce back from that loss and pick up a win here on their home court. They haven't looked terrible in their games lately, they have lost 3/4 of their previous 4 games but some of those games were really close. They did get 1 win during that time but the other 2 losses they suffered were by 6 points at home to Boston U and by 2 points in a road game against Holy Cross. Lehigh hasn't been great this year but they have played their best on their home court and have managed to stay at least .500 with a 6-6 record on their home court. They even have a conference record above .500 at 7-6 and that is more than Lafayette can say since their record in conference play is 4-7 this year. Lafayette has also looked terrible in their road games this year winning 3/11 games. Lafayette had won 2 games in a row in their previous 3 but both of those games were on their home court and once they went to play in a road game they got destroyed, losing to Navy by 20+ points and Lafayette didn't even put up 50+ points in that game either. Lafayette has been terrible in road games all year and I expect that to continue here when they play Lehigh. Lehigh has looked a lot better on their home court and I think they can get break out of their funk with a win here. I like Lehigh to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 74-62 Lehigh. |

02-11-22 | Lightning v. Coyotes OVER 6 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 16 h 20 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Lightning/Coyotes OVER. I am on the over in the Tampa Bay Lightning vs Arizona Coyotes game on Friday. The Lightning have been alternating between wins and losses over their previous 4 games with all of those games ending with a 3-2 final score but I think it's time that comes to an end. They have had to play playoff teams in 2/3 of their previous 3 games and they have been really tight games but the Coyotes are the worst in the West and I think this is a game that the Lightning can break open with a lot of scoring. They have still been scoring 2+ goals in 5 games in a row and I expect them to score more in this game since the Coyotes have a terrible defense. The Coyotes lead the West in goals against this year with 176 goals against, that is the 2nd worst in the entire NHL behind the Montreal Canadiens. The Lightning have 159 goals for this year and although that isn't at the top of the league, it is still top 10 for goals for and they are tied for 2nd in the East with goal for. The Coyotes have even played 3 games in a row now where there was 6+ goals in the game. They just scored 5 goals in their most recent game and they should have a bit more confidence with scoring in this game on their home ice but I don't expect their defense to hold up well against the Lightning. The Lightning have been held down by good teams lately and I think they are waiting to have a game where they bust it open with their scoring. I think they can do that here against the Coyotes and I expect there to be a lot of goals in this game. I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Lightning. |

02-11-22 | Northern Kentucky -6 v. Green Bay | 71-62 | Win | 100 | 15 h 46 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Northern Kentucky. I like Northern Kentucky to cover the spread against Wisconsin-Green Bay in this game on Friday. Northern Kentucky has lost 1/10 games in their previous 10 and they have looked really good lately. That loss just happened last weekend against Detroit but they responded to it well and bounced back in their next game, beating Wisconsin-Milwaukee by 30+ points while holding them to less than 40 points in that game. They played great defense in that game and that was a road game for them too, I expect them to carry over that great defensive play into this game too. Green Bay is even lower than Milwaukee is in their conference standings and they have struggled in conference play this year winning just 3/14 games. Those 3 wins in their conference play came a while ago though and they have lost 6 games in a row since their last win. They lost 4 of those games by 10+ points, including their previous 3 games, and I think they are going to continue that here. Green Bay is already near the bottom of the conference and I think they are going to have a hard time keeping up with Northern Kentucky who has been playing well in conference play this year. I think Northern Kentucky's defense is what's going to separate them here and I expect them to put up a similar performance. Their defense was so good in their most recent game, not only did it allow them to pull ahead and keep adding on to their lead, but they held the opposing team to 39 points and that is really hard to do even against some of the lower division schools. I don't think Green Bay is going to put up a lot of points here and I expect them to fall behind by a lot early in this game. I like Northern Kentucky to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 72-44 Northern Kentucky. |

02-11-22 | Thunder v. 76ers -13 | 87-100 | Push | 0 | 14 h 56 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Philadelphia 76ers. I like the Philadelphia 76ers to cover the spread against the Oklahoma City Thunder in this game on Friday. The 76ers just lost their most recent game against the Suns and I think they are going to bounce back here. Losing to the Suns is understandable since they boast the best record in the league this year and I think it is time for the 76ers to get back on a roll. They have lost 3/4 games in their previous 4 but before that they had won 5 games in a row and I expect them to get back to that now. The 76ers have looked great lately and they have taken over the 1st place spot in their division from the Nets. It is also very exciting in Philadelphia at the moment since they have finally dumped Ben Simmons trading him to the Nets for James Harden. Harden won't be able to play in this game but I don't think they are going to even need him here to lay a beating on the Thunder. The 76ers were already playing very well but now they will be even better as they search for an NBA title this year. I think the 76ers are going to have a lot of confidence and momentum on their side in this game due to that trade and the atmosphere it brings along with it. I expect the 76ers players to play more energized tonight knowing that news and that their team just got even stronger. The Thunder have started to skid again anyway losing 3 games in a row and I expect them to continue losing games. They had a bit of a hot streak over a week ago but now that has faded and until they get Gilgeous-Alexander back in their rotation, they look like a team that struggles to compete every night. I don't even think the 76ers would need that trade to go through to win this game by 20+ points but the news alone brings energy to the entire organization. I'm expecting a strong performance for the 76ers here, I like them to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 124-99 76ers. |

02-10-22 | Murray State -14.5 v. Tennessee State | Top | 73-62 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 11 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Murray State. I like Murray State to cover the spread against Tennessee State in this game on Thursday. Murray State is leading their conference at the moment with a 22-2 record and they are a perfect 12-0 in their conference play this year. They are also 7-1 on the road this year and I think they will be extending that to 8-1 after this game. Murray State has looked really good this year and they are surprisingly the best team in the conference at the moment. They have won 12 games in a row and even though they were all in conference play, they have still played some good teams this year like their win over Belmont who was the favorite to win the conference at the beginning of the year. Murray State was about a 7 point dog in that game and they upset Belmont on the road by 20+ points. They have also won over Tennessee State earlier this year, they played them in a home games and won by 20+ points but I don't see Murray State struggling against them in this road game and I think they are going to repeat what they did to them in that 1st meeting. They just won their most recent game but they had lost 2 in a row before that and they haven't looked good against the really good teams in their conference. Their most recent home game was against Belmont and they lost that game by 20+ points. Belmont is definitely on the same level as Murray State and those 2 teams are the most competitive teams in their conference. Belmont just destroyed Tennessee State in a road game and Murray State did the same thing to Belmont earlier this year. Murray State is leagues above Tennessee State here and I don't see any reason why Murray State won't win this game by 20+ points. I like Murray State to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 88-64 Murray State. |

02-10-22 | Nets +2.5 v. Wizards | 112-113 | Win | 100 | 14 h 10 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Brooklyn Nets. I like the Brooklyn Nets to cover the spread against the Washington Wizards in this game on Thursday. The Nets have lost 9 games in a row now and I think it is time for them to end their losing skid here with a win over the Wizards. The Nets have been in deep hot water ever since losing Kevin Durant to injury. They have been losing even more lately since they have been missing James Harden too who is also injured now. They are on the road here though and I think this is their best shot to end their skid and get a win since they will at least have Kyrie Irving back in their rotation. The Wizards have been struggling in their own way lately, they have had a huge issue with taking big leads in games, usually 10+ points, and then blowing those leads to end up losing the game. Not only have they looked terrible lately blowing all of these leads, but they are also missing arguably their best player in Bradley Beal who is out due to injury. This is really going to be more of a game that has almost no stars playing in it because of all the injuries and since that's the case I expect the Nets to win this game since they still have Irving playing along with supporting role players and a bunch that is stronger than the players the Wizards have. The Wizards have lost 2 games in a row and they have only won 1/9 games in their previous 9. Their games haven't been close either and lately they have been losing by 10+ points in a lot of their games. I think the Nets can take advantage of the struggling Wizards here and I expect them to end their losing skid with a win here. I like the Nets to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 110-107 Nets. |

02-10-22 | Blue Jackets -105 v. Sabres | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 14 h 45 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Columbus Blue Jackets. I like the Columbus Blue Jackets to win this game against the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday. The Blue Jackets have looked a lot better in their games lately and they are starting to win a lot more after going through a pretty big slump. They have wins in 3/4 games of their previous 4 and they just won in their most recent game too. Their only loss during that time was to the Panthers who are by far 1 of the strongest teams in the league this year. Luckily for the Jackets, the Sabres are 1 of the worst teams in the East and they just beat up on some other bad teams in the East like a 6-3 win over the Canadiens. I think the Jackets are going to play well on home ice here and I expect them to keep winning more games now that they have built up some momentum in their previous games. The Sabres haven't looked good in a lot of their games this year but they are really banged up lately and have a ton of players missing from this game. They have lost 2 games in a row and both of those losses were by 3 goals. This is also their 1st game back from a trip of 4 games on the road and I think they are going to come out slow and sluggish in this game from all of that travel along with their team being shorthanded. This is also their only home games and then they go right back on the road after to play Montreal. I think this 1st game back from their road trip is going to be a let down and the Jackets have looked good lately. They are a lot healthier than the Sabres are and I expect the Jackets to pounce on this chance to get another road win. I like the Columbus Blue Jackets to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 3-0 Blue Jackets. |

02-10-22 | Old Dominion v. Middle Tennessee -5.5 | 48-63 | Win | 100 | 14 h 41 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Middle Tennessee State. I like Middle Tennessee State to cover the spread against Old Dominion in this game on Thursday. Middle Tennessee State has looked very good in their games lately, they have 6 wins in their previous 7 games. They just lost a game last Saturday on the road but they were play UAB who is a very good 8-2 in conference play this year. They have bounced back since that loss with a win over UTSA in their most recent game and I think they are going to go on another run here. They have looked very good in home games this year and they are a perfect 10-0. Not only are they 10-0 at home and have looked great in those games, but 8/10 of their home games this year have been won by 10+ points. They only won their most recent home game by 9 points and they gave up 75 points in that game but in most of their home games this year, their defense has looked great and they have not given up 70+ points in many games on their home court. Old Dominion has lost 2 games in a row and I don't think they are going to come close to breaking that funk here. Both of their losses were by 20+ points and they have struggled in a lot of their games this year. They haven't looked good in conference play this year since they are below .500 in those games but they have also looked bad on the road too winning 3/10 games played on the road this year. They have lost by 20+ points in 2 games in a row and they have also lost by 20+ points in 2/3 of their previous 3 road games. I think Old Dominion is going to continue struggling here and I think Middle Tennessee State will breeze through them on their own home court here. I like Middle Tennessee State to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 81-67 Middle Tennessee State. |

02-09-22 | Warriors +2.5 v. Jazz | Top | 85-111 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 45 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Golden State Warriors. I like the Golden State Warriors to cover the spread against the Utah Jazz in this game on Wednesday. The Warriors have won 9 games in a row and are 1 of the best teams in the league this year. I think the Warriors can upset Utah in this game and take home the win with how good they have looked lately. The Warriors are going to be missing Klay Thompson in this game but they have been destroying teams all year since the start of the season so missing Thompson in this game doesn't really impact the team that heavily since we've seen they can get themselves into this position as the 2nd place team in the West without him. Curry will still be playing though and I think he will be enough to lead his team to a win against the Jazz here. The Jazz have won 3 games in a row and they have looked a lot better lately ever since getting Donovan Mitchell back but they haven't really played a team like the Warriors in their previous 3 games and I think they are going to struggle against them even with Mitchell back in the rotation. The Jazz have won 3 games in a row but none of the teams they played were impressive to win against. During this run, they barely scraped by a Nuggets team without Jokic by 4 points, they beat up on an injured Nets team missing both Durant and Harden, and they won their most recent game at home over the Knicks who have been falling apart for a while now. I think the absence of Rudy Gobert for the Jazz is going to play a large role in them losing this game and I expect the Warriors to clean up on a lot of the rebounds. I think the Warriors have looked a lot better than the Jazz this year and I expect the Jazz to struggle against the Warriors while still missing some star players. I like the Warriors to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 112-104 Warriors. |

02-09-22 | Blackhawks v. Oilers -1.5 | 4-1 | Loss | -100 | 15 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Edmonton Oilers -1.5. I like the Edmonton Oilers puckline against the Chicago Blackhawks in this game on Wednesday. The Oilers are playing on a B2B at home here and they lost their game last night against Vegas getting shut out 4-0 in that game. To lose 4-0 on home ice is very embarrassing, especially for a team like the Oilers who look at themselves like 1 of the best teams in the league with all of their talent. I think they are going to play angry in this game being on home ice again and I expect them to bounce back with a huge win here. Any time a team in the NHL gets shut out that team usually makes it a point to score a ton in their next game to make up for a bad game. Well I think the Oilers are going to do that here and they are getting Chicago here who roll into town losing 3 games in a row. Not only have they lost 3 in a row but they have also lost 6/7 in their previous 7 games. The Blackhawks are 1 of the worst teams in the league this year and they have not looked good in any of their games really. I think they are going to keep struggling all year and I expect the Oilers to pounce on this opportunity to get a bounce back game and beat up on a very bad team. This is the 1st game back for the Blackhawks since Feb 2 and I think the Oilers have the advantage here having played a game last night. They will be warmed up and I expect the Oilers to come out fast and take the lead early in this game. I think Chicago will be a bit slow and sluggish to start after that layoff and I expect the Oilers to capitalize. I like the Oilers puckline here to win this game by -1.5 goals. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Oilers. |

02-09-22 | Lehigh v. Colgate -12.5 | 62-78 | Win | 100 | 14 h 35 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Colgate. I like Colgate to cover the spread against Lehigh in this game on Wednesday. Colgate has looked really good in their games lately and I think they will continue to play that way in this game. They have won 4 games in a row now and all of those wins were by 10+ points. Their most recent win was actually by 20+ points at home and I expect them to the same here since they have won their previous 5 home games by 10+ points. They have also put up 80+ points in 3 games in a row now and they have looked a lot better on their home court this year. They have only lost 1 game at home all year and they have been dominant in their conference play too winning 8/10 games this year. They did have 1 of those losses come against Lehigh earlier in the year though. Colgate lost to Lehigh on the road by 4 points, 85-81, but Colgate has looked much better lately and I think this will be a huge revenge spot for them on their home court here. Colgate is a better home team, they scored 80+ points on the road against Lehigh in their previous meeting and I think they will do the same on their home court here but i also think their defense will be a lot better and I don't expect Lehigh to score as many points as they did last time. Lehigh is below .500 over their previous 5 games and both of the games they played on the road during that time were losses. Lehigh has been terrible in road games this year going 3-9 and I don't see them putting up much of a fight here when they just lost in their most recent game and on their own home court. I like Colgate to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 84-61 Colgate. |

02-08-22 | Golden Knights v. Oilers +102 | 4-0 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 15 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Edmonton Oilers. I like the Edmonton Oilers to win this game against the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday. The Oilers have finally started to look a lot better in their games lately. They were on a huge losing streak and were really struggling to win games with a lot of injuries and even a few covid cases on their team but they have been getting healthy and have looked a lot better lately. I think they can win this game since they have been getting very hot leading up to the All Star break. They have 1 loss in their previous 6 games and they went into the All Star break with a win in their most recent game. They have been scoring a lot of goals again in their games and have scored 3+ in all of those wins. They will need that offense against Vegas who can also score a lot of goals in their games but I think the Oilers are going to outscore them here on their home ice. The Golden Knights have won 2 games in a row but they have even struggled to win both of those games. They won their most recent game over the Sabres but they had to go to a shootout to beat the Lightning right before that game and they had also lost 2 in a row before those 2 wins. The All Star game was also in Vegas this year and their previous game was at home so they have been relaxing at home for over a week now. I think the long layoff, coupled with the travel to Canada where players don't like to come because of the covid restrictions, is going to hurt Vegas in this game and I think the Oilers can get the win here and continue their hot streak lately. The Oilers were only struggling because of their missing players but now that they are almost at full strength again they should get back on track and win more games now. They are also getting 1 of their goalies back for this game too since they have been playing with their 3rd string. I like the Oilers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Oilers. |

02-08-22 | Rockets v. Pelicans OVER 227.5 | 97-110 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 21 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Rockets/Pelicans OVER. I am on the over in the Houston Rockets vs New Orleans Pelicans game on Tuesday. The Rockets have been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately and I think that run is going to continue into this game. They have put up 100+ points in 11 games in a row and they have even lost a majority of those games which means that the opposing team has been scoring even more than they have in most of these games. They have given up 100+ points in 33 games in a row and they are letting it happen against some of the worst teams in the league like the Pistons for example. The Rockets lead the league in points scored against them this year averaging around 117 points per game given up this year. The Rockets don't play defense at all in their games and this has been happening all year not just lately. I don't expect them to start playing defense now especially when they will be looking for revenge against the Pelicans who just beat them in their previous game 120-107 and the Rockets lost that game at home. I think they are more likely to focus on their offense than their defense in this road game and I expect them to keep running up the score trying to catch up since they don't really play defense well. Even the Pelicans have put up 110+ points in 3 games in a row and they have given up 100+ points in those games too. The Pelicans have looked a lot better since getting players like Ingram and Valanciunas back in their rotation and I think they are motivated to keep winning games to try and make a playoff push. The Pelicans don't play great defense in a lot of their games either and I expect there to be a lot of scoring in this game. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 128-117 Pelicans. |

02-08-22 | Wisconsin v. Michigan State -4 | 70-62 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 11 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Michigan State. I like Michigan State to cover the spread against Wisconsin in this game on Tuesday. Michigan State just lost their most recent game on the road to Rutgers and they were embarrassed in that game losing by 20+ points. They had won 2 games in a row before that loss though and I think they are due for a bounce back here on their home court. Michigan State has looked really good in most of their games lately, their 2 most recent losses both came in road games but they have looked much better on their home court. I think they will play a lot better here at home and I expect them to take out some anger on Wisconsin here from MSU's terrible loss in their previous game. Michigan State has already beaten Wisconsin earlier this year by 10+ points and that was a road game for them so i think they will have an even easier time imposing their will on them in this game on their own home floor. Wisconsin just won their most recent game but they won at home by 2 points over Penn State and that is not exactly an impressive win considering Penn State is in the lower half of the standing in the Big 10. They even lost their game before that win over Penn State, losing by 10+ points on the road to Illinois and they did not look good in that game as they really fell apart in the 2nd half. This is a huge game for Michigan State because they are in 4th place in the conference currently but a win puts them level with Wisconsin who are in 3rd place just the 1 game above them. Michigan State already won the 1st meeting this year on the road by 10+ points and I think they can do it again here and they should play even better than last time being on their home court for the game. I like Michigan State to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 84-74 Michigan State. |

02-08-22 | Manchester United -161 v. Burnley | 1-1 | Loss | -161 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Manchester United. I like Man U to win this game against Burnley on Tuesday. Man U has looked really good in their games lately and I think they can beat up on Burnley in this game. Man U just lost their most recent game in the FA Cup and I think they are due for a bounce back after that disappointment. They hadn't lost a game in 4 in a row before that loss and 3 of those games were wins for them too. Man U is in 4th place now and if the season ended today they would be going to Champions League. They are 1 point ahead of West Ham for that spot and they have a game in hand of them so I think Man U will be motivated to win this game and keep their lead over West Ham for a top 4 spot. Burnley is the worst team in the Premier League this year and they are the only team with just 1 win all year. They haven't won a game in 10 games in a row now and they haven't even scored in their 2 most recent games either. Man U doesn't have a lot of their star players sitting out for this game either and I expect their offense to be led by Ronaldo and Rashford here. They shouldn't struggle to score goals on the worst team in the league here and I expect Burnley to have a lot of trouble since they haven't scored in 2 games in a row now. Man U has also won 3 games in a row against Burnley and I expect them to make it 4 in a row here. They are a way better team and should be motivated to get back into Champions League at the end of the year. I like Man U to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-0 Man U. |

02-07-22 | Kansas v. Texas +1 | 76-79 | Win | 100 | 15 h 24 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Texas. I like Texas to cover the spread against Kansas in this game on Monday. Texas just won their most recent game by 20+ points over Iowa State. They have had a very tough schedule lately though and they have had to face 3 ranked teams in a row. They won 2/3 of those games and the only game that they lost during that time was the game on the road. They have looked very good on their home court this year and they only have the 1 loss all year. I think Texas can escape with a huge win over Kansas here. Kansas has had an even tougher schedule than Texas has lately, Kansas has had to play 4 different ranked teams in a row and these teams are ranked much higher than the teams Texas faced. Kansas won 3/4 of those games but they just destroyed Baylor by 20+ points in their most recent game. I think that playing all of these tough opposing teams is going to start to take a toll on Kansas since they would've had to exhaust a lot of energy to win even 3 of those games. Now they have to travel to Texas for this game and go beat a team that has only lost 1 time in 15 home games this year. I like Texas to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 76-71 Texas. |

02-07-22 | Raptors v. Hornets OVER 225 | 116-101 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 35 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Raptors/Hornets OVER. I am on the over in the Toronto Raptors vs Charlotte Hornets game on Monday. The Raptors have been hot lately and scoring a lot of points in their games. They have won 5 games in a row and they have taken down some good teams in the process. They have also put up 100+ points in 9 games in a row and their 2 most recent games they scored 125+ points in both. The Raptors were not supposed to be a good team this year, they were projected to be 1 of the worst teams in the East and they are in 6th place at the moment with a record 5 games above .500. I think they have looked a lot better lately and I think a lot of that is thanks to their team staying healthy and having players like Siakam and VanVleet on the court every night putting up 20+ points a game. Their effort on defense has taken a hit though and they have given up 100+ points in 11 games in a row, giving up 110+ points in their previous 2 games. The Hornets are definitely not a low scoring team and they have looked a lot better in their games on their home court this year. They haven't been playing well lately either with 4 losses in a row but I think they will be trying very hard to end that skid here so I expect them to run up this score on their home court here. They also lost to the Raptors back on Jan 25 and I think they are going to be out for their revenge in this game. Their previous meeting ended with the Raptors winning 125-113 and I think there will be just as many points in this game. The Raptors haven't even been playing defense that well anyway but I think they will have an even tougher time on the road in Charlotte and I expect them to keep putting up points in this game to keep up. I don't see Charlotte playing any defense here either and I think they will score a lot on their home court here. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 127-124 Hornets. |

02-07-22 | Devils v. Senators -130 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 28 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Ottawa Senators. I like the Ottawa Senators to win this game against the New Jersey Devils on Monday. The Senators are on home ice for this game and that is a major advantage for them. Besides the fact that there will only be roughly 500 fans in the building for this game, most of the players in the NHL are beginning to hate travelling to Canada for games with all of the covid restrictions they have in place since it is a major inconvenience to them. This works out for the Senators since they have been a better team on home ice this year and lately they have looked a lot better in their home games. I think they have the advantage here coming off of the long layoff, both teams will be a bit rusty at 1st but the Senators will have the comfort of not having to travel and there will be some Devils players that simply don't want to be here. I think this can help out the Senators a lot here but I also think they will win this game since the Devils have been terrible leading up to the All Star break. The Devils have lost 6 games in a row but their 2 most recent games were just embarrassing. The Devils lost B2B games against the Leafs, 1 at home 1 on the road, but the way they did it was just terrible and I can't back a team that plays like this. In the 1st of their 2 meetings the Devils had a 4-2 lead over the Leafs going into the 3rd period and the Leafs had not scored a goal in the 2nd period at all so they weren't even hot or gaining momentum in the game. The Devils collapsed in the 3rd letting the Leafs score 4 unanswered goals to win that game 6-4. Then the Devils had another chance on their home ice to redeem themselves and instead they let the Leafs plaster them 7-1 on their own home ice. I understand that both of these teams are very bad this year but I can't back a team that pulled off what the Devils did in their previous 2 games and I need to see some improvement from them before they can be trusted again. I feel much better going with the home team here who doesn't have to travel and even won their previous game at home. I like the Senators to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Senators. |

02-06-22 | Bucks v. Clippers UNDER 228 | 137-113 | Loss | -108 | 10 h 11 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Bucks/Clippers UNDER. I am on the under in the Milwaukee Bucks vs LA Clippers game on Sunday. The Bucks have had 6 games in a row with a lot of points from both teams in their games but I think this is a good spot for that to end. The Bucks are on the road in LA and they are playing the Clippers who will offer more resistance to them than some of the other teams they have played lately. The Bucks have seen the Blazers, Nuggets, Wizards, and Knicks in their previous 4 games and these aren't exactly teams that focus heavily on defense. The Clippers do have some good players on their team that focus most of their efforts on defense and they do it well. I think the Bucks are going to have trouble putting up all those points in this game on the road with the defense they will encounter here. The Clippers have been missing Kawhi all year but lately they have been missing Paul George too so outscoring their opponents with the players they have in their rotation does not seem like a viable strategy on a night to night basis. They have a lot of good players that can play defense well though and that is how they have been staying relevant and still winning games. They may not be able to do enough to win this game and completely shut down the Bucks here but i think they are definitely good enough on defense to force some turnovers and slow the Bucks offense down with some missed shots. I see a lower scoring game here and this total is huge so I like this game to go under. T.M. Prediction: 107-102 Bucks. |

02-06-22 | Pelicans v. Rockets +5.5 | 120-107 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 11 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Houston Rockets. I like the Houston Rockets to cover the spread against the New Orleans Pelicans in this game on Sunday. The Rockets have won 1/6 games in their previous 6 but I think they have a chance to upset the Pelicans here. The Rockets won their most recent home game over the Cavaliers who are having a very good year and they won that game by 10+ points. I think they can keep that energy up on their home floor and they about to face a team that has been 1 of the worst teams in the league this year so to the Rockets, they are on an even playing field in this game since the Pelicans haven't been great. The Rockets also lost their most recent game too, they were on the road but they lost to a Texas rival team and by a lot of points. They lost on the road to the Spurs by 20+ points and the Spurs have been terrible this year too. There is no way that they are sitting on that loss happily, especially with the margin they lost by, and I expect the Rockets to give a much better effort here to make up for that terrible performance against another bad team. I think they are going to be angry here and I expect them to take that loss out on the Pelicans here on their home court with the mindset that they need to beat up on a bad team now. The Pelicans have won 2 games in a row but those wins were against the Pistons who are 1 of the worst teams in the league this year too, and the other was against the Nuggets as the Pelicans caught them in the middle of a slump. The Pelicans had actually lost 4 games in a row before those 2 wins and I don't see why they won't just revert to that in this game. I think the Rockets can win this game outright. I like the Rockets to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 121-117 Rockets. |

02-06-22 | Hawks v. Mavs -2 | 94-103 | Win | 100 | 7 h 12 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Dallas Mavericks. I like the Dallas Mavericks to cover the spread against the Atlanta Hawks in this game on Sunday. The Mavericks have looked a lot better in their games lately, just a few weeks ago they were barely scraping the .500 mark but now they are 7 games above .500 and are in good position to get a playoff spot if they continue to surge in the 2nd half of the year now. They have stepped up their play at home too and i think they can do enough to win this game on their home court comfortably. Luka Doncic has been great lately putting up 30+ points in 4 games in a row and I expect that to continue here as he carries his team to another huge home win. The Hawks have not been having a great year, they have the players on their team to succeed but they are still below .500 now going into the 2nd half of the year and they need to start winning some games to dig themselves out of the hole they are in. The Hawks have not played their best basketball in road games this year and I think they are going to have a tough time going into Dallas and coming out with a win. The Hawks only have 1 win in their previous 3 games and they have been even worse in road games winning 1 of their previous 5 road games. I think the Mavericks have been playing better than the Hawks lately and I think the Mavs have the momentum with them here. The Hawks have been very up and down all year while the Mavericks have at least started to show some consistency in their play lately and have been winning games like the playoff team they are supposed to be. I think the Mavericks will continue to surge here on their home court and win more games. I like the Mavericks to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 116-107 Mavericks. |

02-06-22 | Houston v. Cincinnati +6.5 | 80-58 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 4 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Cincinnati. I like Cincinnati to cover the spread against Houston in this game on Sunday. Cincinnati has won 4 of their previous 5 games but they have looked a lot better on their home court this year and I think they will give Houston a very good challenge in this game. Cincinnati has won 3 games in a row on their home court and they have looked really good in a lot of their home games this year. They have only lost 2/13 home games this year and most of their wins at home have been by 10+ points. I think Cincinnati will get up for this game since they have a bit of a rivalry with Houston and I expect them to play them hard here. Houston has won 11 games in a row but they have had a very weak schedule during that time. Most of their games in conference play have been blowouts but they have also not faced any really tough teams and have been feeding on the bottom teams of this conference lately. I think Cincinnati is going to put up a good fight on their home court here and this will probably be the toughest team Houston has played in a while. Houston has even played some of their games in their conference play really close and their schedule has been weak since playing against other ranked teams in non-conference games. I think Cincinnati has their eyes set on upsetting Houston here and handing them their 1st conference loss and I expect them to be highly motivated to win here. I expect Cincinnati to at least keep this game close and give Houston a good score. I like Cincinnati to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 68-66 Houston. |

02-06-22 | Providence v. Georgetown +6.5 | 71-52 | Loss | -104 | 1 h 5 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Georgetown. I like Georgetown to cover the spread against Providence in this game on Sunday. Georgetown has lost 10 games in a row now but I think it is time for them to stop the bleeding here. They are the only team in the Big East that doesn't have a win in conference play yet but they have looked a lot better in their previous 3 games and I think they can keep this game closer on their home court here. They just lost to St. John's by 10+ points but their 2 games in a row before that were losses within 10 points. If Georgetown has any chance to break out of their funk and finally win a game in conference play then I think their best shot would be on their home court here. Patrick Ewing is also on the hot seat so he will be pushing his players to perform better here and get a win. Providence has won 6 games in a row but I think that run is nearing an end in their upcoming games. Their previous 3 games have all been very close winning the game within 5 points and I think it is only a matter of time until they start making some big mistakes which ends up costing them a game. Providence did get a win at home over Georgetown on this 6 game run that they're on but that win was only by 8 points and I think Georgetown will play much better looking to break out of their funk and get their revenge on Providence for their previous meeting at the same time. I expect Providence to start slowing down on their run and I also expect Georgetown to win a game soon since it's just not practical for them to lose every game in conference play. I like Georgetown to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 77-74 Providence. |

02-05-22 | Thunder v. Kings OVER 216 | 103-113 | Push | 0 | 11 h 47 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Thunder/Kings OVER. I am on the over in the Oklahoma City Thunder vs Sacramento Kings game on Saturday. The Thunder just played in a game where neither team put up 100+ points in the game but I don't think that is going to be the case in this game. That has happened to them 2 times in their previous 5 games and both times that it happened they were playing against the Trail Blazers. Their other 3 games during that time all had both teams putting up 110+ points and the games were very high scoring. The Thunder are 1 of the worst teams in the league this year but lately they have looked good and are finding ways to win games winning 3 in a row and they have been doing it without their best player in the rotation. I think they will continue to play well in this game too and I expect them to put up a lot of points to keep up with the high scoring Kings. The Kings are terrible on defense this year and I don't think they are going to play a lot of defense in a game against the Thunder who are also not very good. The Kings have given up 100+ points in 18 games in a row and a lot of those games they also put up 100+ points themselves in the game. They have done so in 4/5 of their L5 games and I think they will put up a ton of points here too. The Kings have been losing a lot of games lately but they will look at this game as a good opportunity to get a win at home against a team that they can matchup against. The Kings also might betting their top scorer back in De'Aaron Fox and I think they will put up a lot more points if he returns. Even if he doesn't return, The Kings aren't going to play defense in this game and they will have to score points to keep up with the Thunder since they have been playing so well all of the sudden. I think this will be a game where neither team really plays defense and the points will just keep rolling in as they keep putting up the points to keep up with each other. I expect a very high scoring game here. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 124-120 Kings. |

02-05-22 | Gonzaga v. BYU UNDER 159 | 90-57 | Win | 100 | 11 h 38 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Gonzaga/BYU UNDER. I am on the under in the Gonzaga vs BYU game on Saturday. Gonzaga has been putting up a ton of points in their games lately. Most of their previous 7 games they have either put up 90+ or in a lot of cases 100+ points. Most of the games that they do that in though are against opposing teams who are not very good and Gonzaga already plays in a much weaker conference than a lot of the other high ranked teams in the country. I think this is a great game for them to go under in since BYU is a much better team than what they have seen lately. BYU hasn't been great in conference play this year but they are still 17-7 overall and they are 10-1 on their home court this year. I think BYU will offer a lot of resistance in this game and I don't expect Gonzaga to walk all over them like they usually do in their conference play. BYU has been a very good team on their home court this year but they have also looked really good on defense in all of their games. BYU has not let either team put up 80+ points in the game in 6 games in a row now. Furthermore, they have only given up and scored 80+ points in a game 1 time in their previous 10 games and that 1 game was against Gonzaga. Gonzaga destroyed BYU on their home court 110-84 but now the game is on BYU' home floor and I expect them to play much better on defense here since they have been great on defense all year and they defend their home court well. BYU is probably sitting on that bad blowout still and I expect them to remember that game and play much harder against them here. Gonzaga has also only played in 2 road games this year and both were in their conference play against teams that are not as good as BYU. I think BYU will keep this game somewhat respectable so I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 79-63 Gonzaga. |

02-05-22 | Kentucky v. Alabama -1.5 | 66-55 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Alabama. I like Alabama to cover the spread against Kentucky in this game on Saturday. Alabama just lost their most recent game by 19 points on the road to Auburn but Auburn just keeps showing us why they really are the best team in the country this year. I think Alabama is due to bounce back in this game after that very poor performance but they still managed to put up 81 points in that game so I have faith that their offense will put up the points needed to win here on their home court. Alabama has been very good on their home court this year only losing 1 of their 11 games there. They have also been really good against ranked teams this year going 5-2 against ranked teams and both of those losses were to Auburn. Kentucky is a top 5 team and Alabama has plenty of experience taking down teams of that quality this year. I think this is a game that the Alabama player will definitely get up for and I expect them to extremely motivated to win this game on their home court. Kentucky has looked good lately winning 3 games in a row but 2 of those wins were against SEC teams that are not very good in the conference. I think Kentucky is going to have a tough time against Alabama in this game and I think Alabama will outscore them with their offense which has been putting up a lot of points lately. Kentucky also has a .500 record on the road this year and I think that Alabama will get the best of them here on their home court. I like Alabama to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 84-78 Alabama. |

02-05-22 | Heat v. Hornets OVER 227.5 | 104-86 | Loss | -107 | 8 h 46 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Heat/Hornets OVER. I am on the over in the Miami Heat vs Charlotte Hornets game on Saturday. The Heat haven't looked too good in their games lately but they have been still putting up a lot of points in those games. They have still been putting up 100+ points in 9 of their previous 10 games and a lot of those games they played without Kyle Lowry and a few without Jimmy Butler too. Butler has been back for 2 games now and Lowry just returned in their most recent game. Lowry did not have much of an impact in that game but his team still put up 112 points without him contributing and I think now that he is playing another game back in the rotation, he should play a lot better here. I am expecting a much larger contribution from him on offense in this game since he only scored 2 points in his return and I think Butler will also play even better when Lowry is getting more involved. The Heat have not looked great on defense though, 4 of their previous 5 games they have given up 100+ points in and I don't think they will be able to hold down the Charlotte offense in this game. The Hornets are pretty much back at full strength for this game and they have been getting very hot in their games lately. They have lost 3 games in a row but before this losing skid they were on fire and putting up a ton of points in their games, including 1 game where they even scored 158 points but gave up 126. They have still put up 100+ points in 5 of their previous 6 games including that 3 game skid and they have also given up 100+ points in all of those games. I think the Hornets are due for a bounce back and I expect them to play hard here on their home court. They may not get the win in the end but I think they will put up a lot of points on their home floor here and I think that the Heat will have to focus on offense to get ahead in this game. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 128-124 Heat. |

02-05-22 | Duke -2.5 v. North Carolina | 87-67 | Win | 100 | 7 h 49 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Duke. I like Duke to cover the spread against North Carolina in this game on Saturday. Duke has won 4 games in a row now and I expect them to extend that to 5 games after this. They have been struggling to get by a few of the opposing teams they have played lately but they just got a big win on the road by 10+ points and I think they can build off that win in this game. Their defense has looked a lot better lately and they haven't let an opposing team put up 70+ points on them in 4 games in a row. Their most recent game they won on the road by 10+ points and they only gave up 43 points in that game. Duke is finally back on top of the ACC and I think they will be extremely motivated to keep their position now that they have it. Duke is trying to send off coach K with a very nice final season coaching and the best way to accomplish that is to win their conference and a national title. I think Duke is going to be motivated to keep surging in their upcoming games and the year is winding down quickly. I think Duke is going to start making a big push now and a win against UNC here would be huge for them since UNC has started to look really good lately and now hold the 2nd place spot in the conference but a win here can tie them with Duke for an 8-3 record in conference play. I don't think Duke is going to allow that to happen and I expect them to get up against their rival school here for a huge win that keeps them on pace to win the conference. UNC has won 4 games in a row but they have not looked that good on defense lately. Their previous 2 games they gave up 80+ points to the opposing team and they weren't even playing anyone that good in the conference. I think defense is going to be key in this game and I expect Duke to play much better on defense since they have been lately and I expect them to get this win. I like Duke to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 79-69 Duke. |

02-04-22 | Thunder v. Blazers OVER 214 | 96-93 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 51 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Thunder/Trail Blazers OVER. I am on the over in the Oklahoma City Thunder vs Portland Trail Blazers game on Friday. The Thunder have been involved in some high scoring games lately. Both teams have put up 100+ points in 3 of their previous 4 games and I think that will happen again in this game. The only game that didn't happen in during that time was in a game against the Trail Blazers from less than a week ago where neither team put up 100+ points in the game. I think that will be different here though and I expect the Trail Blazers to give a better effort in this game. They were blown out by almost 20 points in that game and I think they will respond much better on their home court here. The Thunder have looked a lot better in their games lately though and they have been putting up 110+ points in 3 of their previous 4 games. They have also won 2 games in a row and will have a lot of confidence with their shooting in this game. The Trail Blazers have been terrible on the road this year but they have looked a lot better on their home court and I expect them to put up a lot more points in this game. The Blazers have played in 2 games in a row now where neither team put up 100+ points in the game. Before those 2 games, they had played in 6 games in a row where both teams scored 100+ points in the game and I expect this game to be more like those. I think the Thunder are going to be confident shooters in this game and not play defense as well on the road here and I think the Trail Blazers are going to put their focus on scoring here since they are on their home court and barely put up 80+ points in their last meeting. I think the Blazers will be out for revenge here and I expect the score to get driven up in a game where neither side is focused on defense. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 124-118 Trail Blazers. |

02-04-22 | San Diego State v. Colorado State UNDER 131.5 | 57-58 | Win | 100 | 17 h 43 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Diego State/Colorado State UNDER. I am on the under in the San Diego State vs Colorado State game on Friday. San Diego State has played in some low scoring games lately and a big reason for that is due to the great defense they have been playing in their games. They have looked really good on defense in their games lately and I think that they will play well on defense in this game and keep Colorado State from scoring a lot. San Diego State has kept the opposing team in their games from putting up 60+ points in 8 of their previous 9 games. They have actually played 13 games in a row where 1 team, either them of the opposing team, didn't put up 60+ points in the game. A lot of their games have been really low scoring like that where both teams battle it out defensively and a lot of their other games are just lopsided blowouts where 1 team scores around 70+ and the other less than 60 points. I think that trend will continue into this game and I'm expecting another great effort from them defensively here. This also happened when Colorado State played San Diego State at the beginning of January. San Diego State won that game 79-49 once again using their great defense to pull away in that game. Colorado State will be on their home court here where they have played better this year and I expect them to be hungry for revenge here after that last game against them. I think Colorado State will step up and play well on defense too and I think this game is going to stay a low scoring one with not a lot of points. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 59-53 Colorado State. |

02-04-22 | Celtics -8 v. Pistons | 102-93 | Win | 100 | 15 h 52 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Boston Celtics. I like the Boston Celtics to cover the spread against the Detroit Pistons in this game on Friday. The Celtics have won 3 games in a row now and they have 1 loss in their previous 6 games. They have won 4/5 of those games during that time by double digits and I think they will do the same in this game. The Celtics are only in 9th place in the East but they have been winning a lot more games lately and have been surging to try and get themselves in better position as we roll into the 2nd half of the year. I think the Celtics are getting better as the year goes on and now that they have been at full strength for a while I think this will help them start to go on big runs and win even more games to get into better playoff contention. The Pistons are 1 of the worst teams in the NBA and they have lost 2 games in a row. Both of those losses were by 10+ points too. They have also lost 6/7 games in their previous 7 and most of those losses were by 10+ points too. The Pistons have been bad all year, they have looked a lot better on their home court than on the road but they still have more than twice as many losses at home than they have wins. The Pistons are also on a B2B game here and they just played a high scoring and fast paced game against the Timberwolves where they had to score a lot of points to keep up. I think they will be a bit tired from that game and come out slower here. I expect the Celtics to take advantage of them in this spot and jump out to an early lead. I like the Celtics to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 121-107 Celtics. |

02-04-22 | Green Bay v. Cleveland State -12.5 | 69-85 | Win | 100 | 15 h 42 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Cleveland State. I like Cleveland State to cover the spread against Wisconsin-Green Bay in this game on Friday. Cleveland State has been having a great year and they have looked really good in most of their games this year, even in a few of their losses too. They just lost their most recent game on the road to Northern Kentucky but I think they are due for a bounce back in this game. That loss knocked them out of the 1st place spot in their conference and I think they will be looking to get back on track and bounce back with another conference win here. They had won 4 games in a row before losing that previous game. They have also looked a lot better on their home court this year and I think this is a great spot for them to get back on track since they have been winning a lot of their games by close scored lately. They get a break with Green Bay here who is 1 of the worst teams in the conference and they have lost 3 games in a row now. Green Bay has also looked terrible on the road this year and have lost all 8 of their road games played this year. I think Cleveland State is going to take advantage of them on their own home court here and I'm expecting a blowout from them here. Cleveland State is the better team and they have looked a lot better in all of their games this year. Cleveland State has also been great on their home court while Green Bay struggles on the road with no road wins this year and I don't see that even coming close to changing in this game. I like Cleveland State to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 78-58 Cleveland State. |

02-03-22 | Kings v. Warriors UNDER 221 | 114-126 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 30 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Kings/Warriors UNDER. I am on the under in the Sacramento Kings vs Golden State Warriors game on Thursday. The Kings have not been putting up a lot of points in their games lately and I expect that to continue into this game. They just won their most recent game over the Nets putting up 112 points in that game but they had gone 4 games in a row before that without putting up 105+ points in a game. They have looked a lot better on defense lately though, specifically their previous 3 games. They haven't given up 105+ points in 2/3 of those games and the 2 teams were the 76ers and the Nets who both have some really good offense. The Kings have also been a bit banged up lately and they have been missing their best scorer De'Aaron Fox for a few games now. The Warriors have a lot of good players that defend well on their team and I think the Kings aren't going to be able to put up a lot of points on them here, especially with Fox out. The Warriors have been putting up a ton of points in their games lately but I think this is a great spot to fade that trend here. The Warriors have been banged up lately too and have missing some of their best players in their past few games but they have still been getting the wins and have been great. They will probably be getting some of their players back for this game though like Curry, Thompson, and Green and I think that they will play better defense in this game because of those players returning who are very good on defense. They are also returning from a mini road trip and I think they will get off to a slow start here at home with players returning from injuries. I am expecting this game to have some good defense in it and I don't expect a lot of points from the Kings here. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 106-87 Warriors. |

02-03-22 | UCLA +7 v. Arizona | Top | 66-76 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 19 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UCLA. I like UCLA to cover the spread against Arizona in this game on Thursday. UCLA has looked great in a lot of their games this year and they have worked their way back into the 3rd ranked spot in the country. They have been through a lot this year with covid cases and postponed games but they still have a 16-2 record and are clearly 1 of the better teams in the country this year. I think this team is very resilient with what they have gone through while still maintaining a top spot and they have also looked great in their road games this year winning all 5 that they have played in. UCLA has won 6 games in a row and they even have a win over Arizona during that run, beating them at home by 16 points just over a week ago. Arizona didn't put up much of a fight in that game since they were trailing right from the start and I don't think anything is going to change here on their home court. UCLA's coach Cronin has prepared his team well for big road games and hostile environments and I expect UCLA to go in there and still win this game. Arizona has bounced back since losing to UCLA but they have only played the 1 game since then and that game was on Saturday. I think they will come out a bit slow and sluggish here due to the longer layoff between games and I think UCLA can take advantage of them early in this game again. Arizona has been winning a lot of their games lately by 15+ points but they also haven't been playing any tough opposing teams. UCLA has had a lot of experience going into hostile environments and playing against other ranked opposing teams so I think they are better prepared for this game and I expect them to keep it close if they don't win this game themselves. I like UCLA to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 72-67 UCLA. |

02-03-22 | Western Kentucky -1.5 v. Charlotte | 78-59 | Win | 100 | 15 h 19 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Western Kentucky. I like Western Kentucky to cover the spread against Charlotte in this game on Thursday. Western Kentucky has lost 5 games in a row now and I think this is the perfect spot for them to bounce back and get a win here, their 1st road win of the year too. Western Kentucky is 0-5 in road games this year and 2-6 in their conference play but they have had a very tough schedule lately compared to the schedule that Charlotte has had to play. Western Kentucky has lost 5 games in a row but 4 of those losses were to the top 2 teams from each division of this conference. They have a much easier schedule after this stretch and I expect them to start picking up a lot of wins now starting with this game. Charlotte has played some bottom half teams of the conference in their previous 3 games and they even lost their most recent game to Old Dominion by 16 points on the road after just barely beating them at home by 4 points in their game before that one. Before this stretch of bad quality teams, they had played a team from the top 2 in each division of their conference and they were destroyed by 30+ points in one of those games while losing the other by 10+ points but only put up 51 points in the game. I think Western Kentucky is the better team here and I think their record has been a bit off this year due to their tougher schedule lately in their conference play. I think they will start to look a lot better moving forward and I expect them to start winning a lot of games in this next stretch with the teams that are up next for them. I like Western Kentucky to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 78-72 Western Kentucky. |

02-02-22 | Thunder v. Mavs -11.5 | Top | 120-114 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dallas Mavericks. I like the Dallas Mavericks to cover the spread against the OKC Thunder in this game on Wednesday. The Mavericks have looked a lot better in their games lately and they have been winning a lot, working their way up the standing to the 5th place spot in the West. I think now that the Mavericks have gained their footing a bit this year and have started to win a lot of games and go on big runs, I expect them to keep that up and keep winning games to get a good playoff position as the 2nd half of the season starts to wind down. They just lost their most recent game to the Magic on the road by 2 points but they were so close to winning that game and they must be a bit upset over it. I think they will still be angry over that loss since the magic are not a very good team this year and I think they will be looking to take their anger out on the Thunder here by beating on them here on their home court. I think they are due to bounce back in this game and the Mavericks have looked really good at home lately anyway winning 8 of their previous 9 home games. The Thunder have been having a terrible year and they are the 2nd worst team in the West. They are coming off a much needed win in their most recent game but that was their 1st win in 8 games as they ended a 7 game losing skid with that win. Even worse. They only have 2 wins in their previous 14 games and they have looked a lot worse on the road than at home this year. OKC is also still missing their best player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and without him they really have no chance to win at all in their games. They have been hurting badly without him in their lineup and I think they are going to continue to struggle without him again in this game. I think the Mavericks have been getting too hot with how well they are playing and I think they can destroy the Thunder on their home court by 15+ points. I like the Mavericks to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 127-104 Mavericks. |

02-02-22 | Seattle Kraken v. Islanders -160 | 3-0 | Loss | -160 | 14 h 1 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: New York Islanders. I like the New York Islanders to win this game against the Seattle Kraken on Wednesday. The Islanders just won their most recent game 4-1 at home over Ottawa and I think they can repeat that performance in this game. That win ended a 2 game losing skid but they have looked a lot better in their games lately after having a very rough start to their year. They have also looked really good on home ice, they have been stumbling a bit lately but, I think they can string some wins together now that they have 1 under their belt against the Senators. The Senators are not a very good team this year and it is expected that the Islanders would beat them on home ice but the Kraken are an even worse team and have done nothing but struggle to win games ever since joining the league, and their struggles have been even stronger in their road games. I think the Islanders are going to have a strong physical presence here and I think they can beat up on the Kraken here on home ice. The Kraken have lost 2 games in a row and they are at the bottom of the standings in the West. They have not looked good on the road either, they have lost 2 games in a row on the road and they have won 1/7 road games in their previous 7. The Islanders are simply the better team here and have been playing much better on home ice this year. The Kraken have not been good in their games and they have struggled even more in road games lately. The Islanders should have no troubles in this game so I like the Islanders to get the win here. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Islanders. |

02-02-22 | Notre Dame +5 v. Miami-FL | 68-64 | Win | 100 | 14 h 58 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Notre Dame. I like Notre Dame to cover the spread against Miami in this game on Wednesday. Notre Dame just lost their most recent game to Duke but that ended a string of 4 wins they had put together and I think they can get back to that in this game. Notre Dame has looked really good on the road this year, they have a record above .500 in road games and they have won 4 of their previous 5 road games. They have also been doing much better ever since starting their conference play and they are 7-3 in those games which is not far behind Miami who is 8-2 in conference play. Miami has won 2 games in a row now but I think that run will come to an end here. Both of those wins were against teams in the lower half of the conference and against teams who have been struggling in conference play. Notre Dame hasn't been struggling though, they have been great on the road and in conference play this year and I expect them to put up a good fight here. I think they are due for a bounce back after a very bad performance on their own home court where they only put up a measly 43 points on Duke. I think they will come out stronger in this game and try to take the lead right away. I also think they can put up way more points than they did in their previous game and I expect them to keep this game really close if they don't end up winning it themselves. I like Notre Dame to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 71-69 Notre Dame. |

02-01-22 | Heat +2.5 v. Raptors | 106-110 | Loss | -107 | 9 h 59 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Miami Heat. I like the Miami Heat to cover the spread against the Toronto Raptors in this game on Tuesday. The Heat have lost 2 games in a row now and I think they are due for a bounce back here. This losing skid ended a run of 3 wins they had put together and it all started with a loss to the Raptors on their own home court. They lost to them in OT by 4 points just 3 days ago but they were trailing in that whole game. I think they will be out for their revenge here and they should be healthier for this game too. The Raptors have won 2 games in a row but I think that is going to end here. They just got back from a road trip and this is their 1st game back on their home court, I think they will have a bit of a let down here after returning from their road trip with 2/3 wins. They have also been barely getting by in their games lately winning by very slim margins and I think the Heat can get the better of them here motivated by their loss just a few days ago so it still burns fresh in their minds. The Raptors have been very up and down this year and they have gone through cycles of hot and cold. The Heat may be a bit banged up here but they are still 1 of the best teams in the East and i expect their players to step up and get this win against the Raptors who should not even be in the playoffs this year with how they have been playing. I like the Heat to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 101-94 Heat. |

02-01-22 | Panthers v. Rangers +1.5 | Top | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 8 h 26 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: New York Rangers +1.5. I like the New York Rangers puckline against the Florida Panthers in this game on Tuesday. The Rangers just ended a 2 game losing skid with a win in their most recent game but they have been playing some good hockey lately and i think they can keep this a close game with the Panthers here. The Rangers have looked really good on home ice this year and they have played some of their best hockey in their own building this year. They have won 5/6 home games in their L6. They have also won 6 home games in their previous 9 and the 3 games that they lost were all by 1 goal. Even when they lose on home ice they keep the game close and I think they will do the same here, both of these teams have been great all year and I think the Rangers could even win this game. The Panthers have won 4 games in a row now but I think that run is going to end here. They are playing a B2B game here on the road and they just scored 8 goals the night before but also gave up 4 goals to the Blue Jackets who have not looked great this year. The Panthers have actually given up 4 goals in both of their previous 2 games and I think they are going to struggle to keep the Rangers out of the net here on their home ice. I also think they are due for a bit of a let down after scoring 8 goals the night before and I think the Rangers can take advantage of them here. The Rangers have a good chance of taking this win on home ice here so I like the Rangers on the puckline +1.5. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Rangers. |

02-01-22 | Kansas -4.5 v. Iowa State | 70-61 | Win | 100 | 8 h 20 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Kansas. I like Kansas to cover the spread against Iowa State in this game on Tuesday. Kansas just had their 5 game win streak ended when they lost in their most recent game to Kentucky by almost 20 points on their own home court. They were dominated on the floor in that game and I think they are going to be due for a bounce back after that bad loss. Luckily, that loss to Kentucky wasn't in their conference play so they are still on course to winning the Big 12 but it did hurt their rank as they were much higher than Kentucky was and I think that Kansas will be focused on a good bounce back game here on the road. Iowa State doesn't have a lot of offense either and that works well with how Kansas likes to play their game. I expect Kansas to keep Iowa State off the board with good defense here and I think they will have plenty of opportunities to extend their lead in this game. Iowa State has won 2 games in a row but both of their opposing teams in those games were not very good and they have struggled a lot in their conference play this year, losing 4/5 games before winning these previous 2. I think Iowa State is going to continue their troubles in their conference play and I think they will have a lot of trouble with a high ranked Kansas team here. I expect Kansas to respond to that loss with a big win here and get back on track. I like Kansas to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 69-61 Kansas. |

01-31-22 | Warriors v. Rockets UNDER 230.5 | 122-108 | Win | 100 | 15 h 15 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Warriors/Rockets UNDER. I am on the under in the Golden State Warriors vs Houston Rockets game on Monday. The Warriors have looked good on defense lately and I think they are going to play well on defense in this game and will stop the Rockets from putting up a lot of points here. The Warriors have kept the opposing team to less than 110 points in 4 of their previous 5 games, and 2 of those games they didn't even give up 100 points to the opposing team. This is also their 1st road game after playing 7 home games in a row and I don't think they are going to put up as many points on the road here, I expect them to play some better defense in this road game. They have actually played 3 road games in a row where 1 of the teams didn't reach 100 points in the game and that has also happened in 5 of their previous 6 road games too. There is a chance that the Rockets won't have Christian Wood for this game and that would be a huge blow to their offense since he contributes a lot to it in their games. Even if he does play, I don't think the Rockets will do enough here to keep up with the Warriors and their scoring. The Rockets have lost 3 games in a row but they have looked terrible in a lot of their games lately and have been 1 of the worst teams in the league all year. The Rockets have put up 110+ points just 1 time in their previous 3 games and same goes for their previous 3 home games. The Rockets played the Warriors on the road over a week ago and that was a low scoring game which finished 105-103. The Warriors were missing even more players in that game though, they won't all be back for this game but they will have some other players that they didn't have in that game and I think these players will offer more defense for the Warriors in this game and will allow for the Warriors to pull ahead by more and extend their lead. I see a good defensive effort from the Warriors here so I like this game to go under. T.M. Prediction: 107-92 Warriors. |

01-31-22 | Colorado State v. Wyoming +1 | 78-84 | Win | 100 | 15 h 4 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Wyoming. I like Wyoming to cover the spread against Colorado State in this game on Monday. Wyoming has been looking good in their games lately and they have won 7/8 games in their previous 8. They have only lost 1 of their games in conference play this year and they have been a perfect 8-0 on their home court too. Wyoming has been grinding out a lot of their wins lately, they have won 2 of their previous 3 games, winning both of those by 2 points, but they have shown more than a few times this year that they can grind out the close games and come away with the wins. Wyoming has played in 7 games this year that have been decided by 5 points or less and Wyoming is 5-2 in those games, they are a 1 point favorite here so if the game comes down to the final play then Wyoming has had plenty of experience winning these types of tight games. I think Wyoming can take a lead and keep it in this game though and I'm expecting them to get another big conference win on their home court here. Colorado State has been having a great year with only 2 losses but both of those losses came in their conference play. They just lost their most recent game to UNLV and they were embarrassed by them on their own court losing by 10+ points. They have also won 2 games in a row on the road but they have been playing weak teams, beating up on San Jose State and Air Force in those games. I think they are going to have a tougher challenge on the road in Wyoming here since Wyoming has been a very good home team this year and has looked good in their conference play too. I think Wyoming will be able to keep up with Colorado State on offense and I actually expect Wyoming to outscore them in this game. I like Wyoming to cover the spread here winning this game. T.M. Prediction: 81-75 Wyoming. |

01-31-22 | Oilers v. Senators UNDER 6.5 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 15 h 38 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Oilers/Senators UNDER. I am on the under in the Edmonton Oilers vs Ottawa Senators game on Monday. The Oilers have been looking a lot better in their games lately winning 4 in a row and they have been winning more games with a good defensive effort lately. They have not given up more than 2 goals in their previous 3 games and I think they will keep that up in this game, shutting the door on the Senators from scoring here. They just scored 7 goals in their most recent game but that was a win against the Canadiens who are the worst team in the league now and I think they will have more trouble scoring in this game since the Senators have been playing good defense lately and have looked a lot better on their home ice this year. The Senators have seen 5 goals or less total in 5 games in a row and that has also held true for their previous 5 home games in a row. They haven't given up more than 3 goals in 5 games in a row but they have only scored more than 2 goals in 1 of those games. The Senators are also missing a ton of players here and some key players too so i think they will continue to play hard on defense and try to win low scoring games with a lot of their offensive power out injured. I don't think the Sens will be able to score a lot on the Oilers in this game since the Oilers have looked a lot better lately and have been better on defense in those games. I also think the Sens have been good on defense though and the Oilers haven't really been their greatest over the last few weeks so I expect the Sens to keep them at bay here and keep this a low scoring game to give themselves a chance. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Oilers. |

01-30-22 | 49ers +3.5 v. Rams | 17-20 | Win | 100 | 79 h 2 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Francisco 49ers. I like the San Francisco 49ers to cover the spread against the LA Rams in this game on Sunday. The 49ers have been a very resilient group in these playoffs so far. They came in as a Wild Card team and dominated the Cowboys in the Wild Card game, then they went into Green bay and took out the number 1 seed with a banged up QB playing in very cold and bothersome weather but still came out with a win when they the only time they had a lead in that game was when they kicked the winning field goal. I think the 49ers fought very hard at the end of the season just to get here and they continued their gritty play in their 2 playoff games too. I think they have the momentum on their side and will continue to play well making it very tough on the opposing team to beat them. Their defense has looked great lately and I think they are going to be a key factor in this game. The Rams have also looked a lot better on offense lately but they haven't really played teams that were surging into the playoffs. Their 1st win in these playoffs was against the Cardinals who went 1-5 in their final 6 games of the season and then they kicked out a Buccaneers team that was losing steam fast as they were nearing the finish line, struggling to beat the Jets in their last game of the regular season and then missing a lot of offensive weapons too making it hard to compete with what the Rams had. The Rams defense has the pieces there to perform well too but time and time again during the season we saw them underperform and even in the last round of the playoffs they had a huge lead and somehow let the Bucs make a comeback and tie it 27-27 which never should have happened. I think the 49ers have been through a lot and will be very tough to stop here with that great defense backing them up playing the way they are at the moment. The 49ers were also 2-0 vs the Rams this year and they are 6-0 against them over the past 3 seasons. The 49ers clearly have the Rams number and nothing they see should be new to them from playing in the same division and seeing them twice a year. The 49ers are 1 team that McVay just can't beat and I think they have a good chance to pull off another upset over the Rams here. I like the 49ers to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 23-20 49ers. |

01-30-22 | Bengals v. Chiefs OVER 54.5 | Top | 27-24 | Loss | -103 | 75 h 23 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bengals/Chiefs OVER. I am on the over in the Cincinnati Bengals vs Kansas City Chiefs game on Sunday. The Bengals have gone on a great run to make it to this AFC Championship game but they haven't had to use a lot of offense to get here. They have been in control of their previous 2 games for the most part and haven't had to put up a lot of points as the offenses they faced struggled in those games. I don't think that is going to happen here though. The Chiefs just had a crazy high scoring game that became very explosive near the end and i think this game will follow suit with that game more than the other games the Bengals have played in. The other 2 teams didn't really challenge the Bengals much but the Chiefs will and I think the Bengals are going to have to put up a ton of points to keep up here. The Bengals haven't had to play from behind yet but there is a good chance they will be playing this game from behind and if that's the case then they will have to throw the ball more and put up a lot of points quickly. The Chiefs have put up 40+ points in both of their playoff games and they have looked incredible on offense in both games. They just won a shootout with the Bills and even when they were down by 3 with 13 seconds left they found a way to sling the ball down the field and tie the game with a FG in those 13 seconds. The Bills have 1 of the best defenses in the league and even they had trouble stopping the Chiefs in that game. I don't think the Bengals are going to have a better chance here of stopping them so they will need to defend this game with their offense to keep it close. They already played each other right before the playoffs started and there was 60+ points in that game, both teams putting up 30+ points. I think this is going to be a high scoring game with a lot of offenses and I think the defenses will not be able to do much to stop these 2 powerful offenses. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 37-34 Chiefs. |

01-30-22 | Bengals +7 v. Chiefs | 27-24 | Win | 102 | 75 h 22 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Cincinnati Bengals. I like the Cincinnati Bengals to cover the spread against the Kansas City Chiefs in this game on Sunday. The Bengals have looked really good with Joe Burrow leading the way for them, they have won their 1st playoff game in 30+ years and they got their 1st ever road playoff win when they knocked out the number 1 seed last week. I think the Bengals have a lot of momentum on their side and the pressure is off of them since the Chiefs are the more established team that has been here many times before over the last few years. The Bengals have the right mindset ahead of this game too, they are not getting cocky or looking ahead to the Super Bowl but in their eyes they still have a lot of work to put in and I think that mentality is going to help them on this big stage. Joe Burrow has won a National Championship in college so he is no stranger to the big stage either and I think he is going to have his competitive drive really come out here to try and take down Patrick Mahomes and the big bad Chiefs. He has already shown that he can beat them since he did beat them earlier in the regular season 34-31 and they were even losing by 11 points at halftime but their defense stepped up in that game and held the Chiefs to 3 points in that 2nd half so they could complete their comeback. The Bengals have already done it once this year and I know they can pull off the upset again over the Chiefs. They may not do it again here but I definitely don't think they are going to get blown out in this game and I expect them to keep this game close the whole time and give themselves a chance to take it. I like the Bengals to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 37-34 Chiefs. |

01-29-22 | Canucks +1.5 v. Flames | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 17 h 27 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Canucks +1.5. I like the Vancouver Canucks puckline against the Calgary Flames in this game on Saturday. The Canucks haven't looked bad in their games lately and even in their losses they have still been playing very well. They just thrashed the Jets on the road in their most recent game winning that one 5-1 and I think they can keep up that momentum going into this game. They had lost 3 games in a row before winning their most recent but they lost 2 of those 3 games by just 1 goal, forcing both of those games past regulation. They have also been playing great defense and their goaltending has been great in their games lately too since they haven't allowed more than 3 goals in 6 games in a row. The Canucks have been playing other Canadian teams very tough this year, they are 5-1 in their L6 against Canadian teams. I think they are going to play tough in this game too and I expect them to give the Flames a good challenge here. The Flames have been a very up and down team all year, winning a lot of their games in spurts, they are really a team that you need to back while they are still red hot and winning games. They were winning a lot of games lately but they have cooled off now and just lost their most recent game to the Blues 5-1. After a bad loss like that I expect the Flames to play much better defense in this game, especially when they haven't given up more than 1 goal in their previous 3 wins in a row. I think the Canucks are going to play hard in this game and even if they can't get the win here, I expect them to keep this game close and force it past regulation again which they have been doing a lot lately. I like the Canucks on the puckline here +1.5. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Flames. |
