03-23-19 | Maryland v. LSU -2.5 | 67-69 | Loss | -114 | 1 h 51 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #842 LSU over Maryland (12:10p.m., Saturday, March 23 CBS) The Tigers are one of the most talented teams in the tournament and should be able to defeat the Terrapins by 6-8 points. The line is low based on the distractions surrounds the LSU program but on paper they are a much better team than this young Maryland team. Maryland is 1-7 ATS in their last 8 NCAA Tournament games. LSU is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games against Big 10 teams. | |||||||
03-22-19 | Ohio State +5.5 v. Iowa State | 62-59 | Win | 100 | 57 h 31 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #813 Ohio State over Iowa State (9:50p.m., Friday, March 22 TBS) Iowa State is the hot public betting team now since they are coming off a Big 12 Conference Championship, but I feel they are being overvalued. Both teams are similar in how they played to close out the regular season but Ohio State got back their best player and I feel that they can take this game down to the wire. Iowa State is 1-4 ATS (1 push) in their last 6 games against Big 10 teams. | |||||||
03-22-19 | UCF v. VCU | 73-58 | Win | 100 | 56 h 29 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #799 UCF over VCU (9:40p.m., Friday, March 22 CBS) The Golden Knights have flown under the radar most of the season despite having the tallest player in college basketball. The AAC was a much better conference than the A-10 this season and UCF just played better competition over the last two months of conference play. UCF is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games. VCU is 1-6 ATS (1 push) in their last 8 games played on Friday. | |||||||
03-22-19 | Spurs +6 v. Rockets | 105-111 | Push | 0 | 8 h 31 m | Show | |
The Spurs had their long winning streak snapped last time out vs. Miami. We predicted that loss after a win over the Warriors and with this game upcoming. We think the Spurs were probably looking ahead to this one. We think they will put their best foot forward. They are playing some of their best hoops so far this season right now, and I think all of the teams at the bottom of the playoff standings in the West want to keep winning to avoid the No. 8 seed and a dreaded matchup with Golden State in the first round. | |||||||
03-22-19 | Clippers -6.5 v. Cavs | Top | 110-108 | Loss | -103 | 7 h 6 m | Show |
Past Clippers teams would be scary to trust in situations like this. They had more talent than the current club for sure, but they didn’t play like a team and they would often underwhelm against bad teams on the road. But this current squad plays like a team, and they are one of the biggest surprises in the NBA this season. They are also getting possibly the best coaching job from Doc Rivers in his career. This team is 12-7 ATS on the road against sub-.500 clubs. They have covered four straight in this series. They are playing some of their best basketball of the season right now and they seem to want to improve their playoff standing as the season winds down, so we don’t see them overlooking the Cavs tonight. | |||||||
03-22-19 | Thunder +2.5 v. Raptors | 116-109 | Win | 100 | 7 h 1 m | Show | |
OKC has lost four straight and they need this game badly. These teams just played Wednesday in Toronto and the Raptors won in OT. It is extremely hard to win consecutive games over the same team like this, and it is pretty rare for one team to get the sweep. OKC is 12-5 ATS in the last 17 meetings in Toronto.. Lowry is out here for the Raptors. This Toronto team seems like one that is content to ride out the rest of the regular season while the Thunder really need a win here, so the road team should have all the motivation tonight. | |||||||
03-22-19 | Georgia State v. Houston -12 | 55-84 | Win | 100 | 54 h 7 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #816 Houston over Georgia State (7:20p.m., Friday, March 22 TBS) Houston is the best team in the country not coming from a power conference. They get it done on both sides of the floor and will win this game by double digits. The Panthers are not as strong of a team as their past NCAA Tournament teams and I just do not see them developing any magic this March. Houston is 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games against teams from the Sun Belt. | |||||||
03-22-19 | Oregon v. Wisconsin -1.5 | 72-54 | Loss | -107 | 52 h 33 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #826 Wisconsin over Oregon (4:30p.m. Friday, March 22 TBS) We will go against the public in this game, as Oregon is the hot pick after winning the PAC-12 Conference Tournament. Wisconsin just does not match up well with Michigan State, but playing a different team from a different conference should get them back on track. Wisconsin has won 4 of their last 5 games and played much better competition throughout the year compared to Oregon. Wisconsin is 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games against PAC-12 teams. | |||||||
03-22-19 | Cal-Irvine v. Kansas State -3.5 | 70-64 | Loss | -109 | 3 h 34 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #828 Kansas State -4 over UC Irvine (2p.m., Friday, March 22 TBS) | |||||||
03-22-19 | Northern Kentucky v. Texas Tech -13 | 57-72 | Win | 100 | 48 h 18 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #820 Texas Tech over Northern Kentucky (1:30p.m., Friday, March 22 TNT) Texas Tech laid an egg against West Virginia in the Big 12 Tournament but that may have been a blessing in disguise. This is the best team in the league, and I believe they have a good chance to win this region. They have still won 9 of their last 10 and most of those games have not been close. WKU is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following an ATS win in their previous game. Texas Tech is 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games vs teams with a winning record. | |||||||
03-22-19 | Montenegro +0.5 v. Bulgaria | 1-1 | Win | 100 | 2 h 35 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #234049. Competition: Euro Cup Qualifiers - Take Montenegro +0.5 (-155) over Bulgaria (Friday @ 1:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. As per your selection on Montenegro, we are going to bank on their recent away form as the Balkan side is currently on a run of just 4 defeats in their last 10 competitive away fixtures. We also like the face that Bulgaria has failed to keep a clean sheet in 9 out of their last 10 games and we believe that this Montenegro side can exploit the leaky Bulgarian defense and score at least two gaols. In half of Montenegro's last 10 away games, the side has scored at least two goals. Bulgaria, on the other hand, comes into this game after failing to win their last three Nations League fixtures. Their is cause for concern amongst fans and within the squad, as they just do not look the side who is confident and playing good soccer. We will take Montenegro in this spot to at least grab a point and cash our ticket. | |||||||
03-21-19 | Pacers +11 v. Warriors | Top | 89-112 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 22 m | Show |
The Warriors have been one of the worst ATS teams all season. They just don’t give a crap about the regular season and their lines are always inflated. That certainly looks like the case tonight. After a rough patch the Warriors kind of flexed their muscles a bit and they have covered in three of the last four games. But we don’t think they will keep it up. They can give a subpar effort tonight and still win this game. Revenge doesn’t play a huge role in our NBA handicapping, but in certain situations we think it does come into play. And we have no doubt that the Pacers remember the 32-point beatdown they received at home to these Warriors earlier in the season. Every team wants to give Golden State their best shot, and we feel they will play strong defense tonight and give an all-out effort. Going to sprinkle 1 unit on the moneyline. | |||||||
03-21-19 | Pacers v. Warriors UNDER 219 | 89-112 | Win | 100 | 9 h 22 m | Show | |

03-21-19 | Old Dominion +13 v. Purdue | 48-61 | Push | 0 | 57 h 48 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #759 Old Dominion over Purdue (9:50p.m., Thursday, March 21 TBS) Just not sold on this Purdue team being this big of a favorite. The Boilermakers won the Big 10 but lost 2 of their last 3 games down the stretch and have a very streaky start player in Carsen Edwards. He can be a volume scorer and seems to force the action when his shot in not going. The Monarchs are still not getting much respect from the odds makers despite winning the regular season and conference tournament in CUSA. They were an underdog in the championship game, and I feel they will be able to keep this game in single digits. Old Dominion is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 nonconference games. Purdue is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games against teams with a winning record. | |||||||
03-21-19 | Baylor v. Syracuse -2 | Top | 78-69 | Loss | -110 | 57 h 39 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #788 Syracuse over Baylor (9:57p.m., Thursday, March 21 TRUTV) Just do not believe Baylor can go very far in this tournament without Tristan Clark. The Bears have lost 4 straight games and were not competitive in their last game out. This will be a battle of teams that like to play zone and I believe Syracuse will have the edge from the 3-point line. Baylor is 1-8 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 11 games overall. Syracuse has covered the spread in 4 straight NCAA Tournament games. | |||||||
03-21-19 | Blue Jackets -135 v. Oilers | 1-4 | Loss | -135 | 10 h 4 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. #047. Take Columbus -135 over Edmonton (Thursday, March 21 at 9:05 p.m.) As per your selection on the Columbus Blue Jackets, it's essentially playoff time for them as they are currently clinging to a one-point lead over the Montreal Canadiens for the final wild card spot. Games like these against teams out of the playoff race are games that the Jackets must win and we believe they get the job done tonight. Look, Columbus comes in riding a two-game losing streak, but they've been in both of those games against Boston and Calgary - not the worst two teams to lose to. Now they get to take on an Edmonton team who is playing out the string and plays absolutely no defense what so ever. It's imperative that the Jackets play well and earn both points in this matchup as this game is the type of game that should help the star players bust out of whatever slump they are in and produce points. The Jackets will have the edge in goal tonight with Bobrovsky over Koskinen and we believe they will turn in a full 60-minute effort and skate away with the win. | |||||||
03-21-19 | Nuggets v. Wizards +8.5 | 113-108 | Win | 100 | 6 h 52 m | Show | |
The Wizards won’t be making the playoffs. They would need a miracle for that to happen. But they are not mathematically eliminated, and we think they will play hard tonight. They have covered in three of the last four meetings in this series. They played a dud game last night as they went to OT at Chicago. But this team is a lot better at home and we don’t see them rolling over tonight. This looks like an inflated line, and we will take advantage of the extra points against a Denver team that is average on the road. | |||||||
03-21-19 | Florida v. Nevada -2 | 70-61 | Loss | -110 | 54 h 32 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #778 Nevada over Florida (6:50p.m., Thursday, March 21 TNT) Florida really struggles to score points on offense and I believe the experience of Nevada will allow them to emerge victorious I this game. This may be a defensive grinder, but unless Florida shoots much better from the three point lie than their average, they will not win this game. Nevada has faced huge spread all season long and they have just 4 losses on the season. Nevada is 30-3 after a loss under Eric Musselman and 19-6 ATS (1 push) in their last 26 games following a loss as well. Florida is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games following a loss. | |||||||
03-21-19 | Northeastern v. Kansas -7 | 53-87 | Win | 100 | 51 h 1 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #784 Kansas over Northwestern (4p.m., Thursday, March 21 TNT) This is not a typical Kansas year, as injuries and suspensions have taken its toll on this game and they did not win the Big 12 this year. But they are still talented and if they can make it to the Sweet 16, they will get to play in Kansas City, giving them a huge home crowd edge. Kansas is 39-18 ATS (3 pushes) in their last 60 games following a loss. | |||||||
03-20-19 | Loyola Marymount -1.5 v. California Baptist | 56-55 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 19 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #745 Loyola Marymount over Cal Baptist (10p.m., Wednesday, March 20) One of these teams play in a much better conference and we will side with the Lions tonight. LMU is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games. Generally, the favorite does well in these lesser tournaments and expect that to be the case on Wednesday. | |||||||
03-20-19 | Arizona State v. St. John's +115 | 74-65 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 53 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #714 St Johns over Arizona State (9:10p.m., Wednesday, March 20 Tru TV) Everyone is on ASU tonight and thus the value lies with the more talented Red Storm. St. Johns did not perform well down the stretch but making it to the First Four will lift a weight off of this team. They are the better offensive team and I believe that will be the difference tonight in Dayton. ASU lost this game last year and do not feel they are better in 2018-2019. ASU is 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games against Big East teams. St Johns is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS loss in their previous game. | |||||||
03-20-19 | Heat +6.5 v. Spurs | Top | 110-105 | Win | 100 | 8 h 39 m | Show |
The Spurs are more secure in their playoff seeding right now and there is a lack of drama in the Western Conference playoff race. But Miami is in the No. 8 spot in the east and only 1.5 games secure in that spot. They need every win they can get, and the playoffs essentially start early for them if they want to keep this seeding. This is a sandwich game for the Spurs after their win over the Warriors last time out and with the Rockets on deck after this game. This looks like the perfect spot for a letdown game for the home team. Miami is one of the best betting teams on the road at 22-11 ATS this season. We think they will play some great defense tonight in a low-scoring affair. The only meeting this season, way back in November, saw the Heat win 95-88. | |||||||
03-20-19 | Heat v. Spurs UNDER 210.5 | 110-105 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |

03-20-19 | Celtics +3 v. 76ers | 115-118 | Push | 0 | 6 h 8 m | Show | |
Boston matches up well here. They have covered in four straight meetings and in seven of the last eight. This line looks a little fishy as you would expect the Sixers to be favored by more points tonight and we think the sportsbooks are trying to get the public to load up on the home team here. But Boston has a strong history in this series and we think they will want to win this game coming off a loss last time out. | |||||||
03-19-19 | Loyola-Chicago +9.5 v. Creighton | 61-70 | Win | 100 | 9 h 28 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #689 Loyola Chicago over Creighton (9p.m., Tuesday, March 19 ESPNU) This is a lot of points to be giving for a team that is somewhat disappointed to be here. With a total in the mid 130s we will grab the points in this game. If the Ramblers can control the pace of this game they should be able to take it down to the wire. The Bluejays are 6-14 ATS in their last 20 games following an ATS loss in their previous game. | |||||||
03-19-19 | Maple Leafs +113 v. Predators | 0-3 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 36 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #011. Take Toronto over Nashville (Tuesday, March 19 at 8:05 p.m.) Note* We will bounce-back in a big way from this mini-slump. We have revamped the selection process and are eager to put it to the test. As per your selection on the Toronto Maple Leafs, we know what's been said about them because everywhere you look, someone is talking about how bad defensively they are. This is true, but the fact of the matter is that they still remain an elite offensive team with three superstars leading the attack, a Norris Trophy Candidate on defense and a Vezina candidate in net. The Leafs are also very well known for playing up or down to the level of competition and we believe they will welcome the opportunity to get back on the road and play a simple road game against a Nashville team that is coming off a 5-day Western road trip where they took two of three. The Predators struggle to score goals as they sit 17th overall in the league and we believe that the stars of Toronto can get going and generate plenty of offense against an overmatched Nashville squad. The Leafs are 7-1 in their last 8 Tuesday games and are 14-2 in their last 16 games playing on 2 days rest. They've also won 4 of the last 5 meetings in Nashville. | |||||||
03-19-19 | 76ers v. Hornets +2 | Top | 118-114 | Loss | -115 | 6 h 18 m | Show |
Philly has won all three meetings this season, but two have gone to overtime and one was decided by two points. In fact, all three Philly wins were by a combined six points for all three games. Charlotte matches up well here, and they will not want to get swept in the season series. The Hornets are 2.5 games out of a playoff spot, so this game is a must-win tonight, and we think this team will be focused on the task at hand. And Embiid is out of the lineup for the Sixers. This game is sandwiched between games against Milwaukee and Boston for the Sixers, and there’s no doubt they care more about those matchups than they do this one. Philly has been just average on the road this season, while the Hornets are very strong at home. | |||||||
03-19-19 | Hofstra +9.5 v. NC State | 78-84 | Win | 100 | 7 h 30 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #673 Hofstra over NC State (7p.m., Tuesday, March 19 ESPN2) The Wolfpack feel that they got snubbed and are not that excited about playing in this game. The Pride are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 nonconference games. NC State is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games following an ATS loss in their previous game. | |||||||
03-19-19 | Fairleigh Dickinson -1.5 v. Prairie View A&M | 82-76 | Win | 100 | 7 h 11 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take Fairleigh Dickinson over Prairie View A&M (6:40p.m., Tuesday, March 19 TRUTV) Both teams have been covering machines of late, but we will side with the favorite. The line keeps moving their way despite 52% of the money coming in on the underdog. The Knights are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games. The Panthers are 0-4 ATS (1 push) in their last 5 nonconference games. | |||||||
03-18-19 | Canucks v. Blackhawks -226 | 3-2 | Loss | -226 | 10 h 35 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #573. Take Chicago over Vancouver (Monday, March 18 at 8:35 p.m.) As per your selection on the Chicago Blackhawks, we are going to continue to ride them as the regular season closes out since they are ever so close to reaching that final wild-card spot in the west. The Blackhawks have been one of the best teams in the NHL over the last half of the season and they are currently on a 5-game winning streak, as they are scoring plenty of goals and getting timely goaltending, none more evident than Corey Crawfords 48-save shutout at the Bell Centre vs Montreal on Saturday. Now the Hawks return home to face a Vancouver team that has won just 4 of their last 10 games and a team that has trouble scoring goals. The Canucks will also be playing on B2B nights and that's a spot they don't fare too well in as they are just 3-13 in their last 16 games while playing on 0 days rest. The Hawks meanwhile are 10-2 in their last 12 vs a team with a losing record and the h home team is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings between these two teams. Take Chicago in this spot. | |||||||
03-18-19 | Warriors v. Spurs +2.5 | 105-111 | Win | 100 | 7 h 54 m | Show | |
Golden State is one of the three worst ATS teams in the NBA this season. And they keep getting the benefit of the doubt of the oddsmakers. Every now and then they flex their collective muscle and play a playoff-type game, but mostly they are just going through the motions waiting for the playoffs while they get their best effort from opponents on a nightly basis. The Spurs have won eight straight and we think there’s a good chance they will keep that winni9ng streak going tonight. | |||||||
03-18-19 | Jazz v. Wizards +6 | 116-95 | Loss | -109 | 6 h 59 m | Show | |
Almost every game from here on out is a must win for Washington if they want to make the postseason. This team played pretty well at home, while the Jazz are just average on the road. Washington has covered in seven of their last eight games and they are playing well above their handicap from the oddsmakers lately. We expect a close game here and think the home team will put their best foot forward. | |||||||
03-18-19 | Pistons v. Cavs +7 | 119-126 | Win | 100 | 6 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a bad spot for the Pistons and an inflated number also. They are coming in on a back-to-back and playing their third game in four nights. They also had one of their biggest games – and wins – of the season on Sunday with a home win over Toronto. They probably won’t be able to emotionally get up for this game like that one. And this is the start of a five-game road trip for the Pistons, and we just think they will get out of the gate slow here. Cleveland has won their last two home games. Going to sprinkle a little on the moneyline here as well. | |||||||
03-17-19 | 76ers v. Bucks -6 | Top | 130-125 | Loss | -104 | 4 h 54 m | Show |
We just think that when push comes to shove that the Bucks are a much stronger and deeper team than are the Sixers, and we think that if both teams flex their muscles on national tv here that the Bucks will come on top with a comfortable win. Milwaukee has covered in three of the last four meetings and in five of the last seven, and we think they will match up well again here today. Nice line value here, in our opinion. | |||||||
03-17-19 | St. Louis +2 v. St Bonaventure | 55-53 | Win | 100 | 2 h 50 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #647 Saint Louis over St Bonaventure (1p.m., Sunday, March 17 CBS) This is a winner take all game with the A-10 Champion going to the NCAA Tournament. The Billikens are starting to peak at the right time and should be able to win this game on Sunday. Saint Louisa is 24-7 ATS (1 push) in their last 32 games played on Sunday. | |||||||
03-16-19 | Western Kentucky v. Old Dominion +2 | 56-62 | Win | 100 | 9 h 3 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #636 Old Dominion +2 over Western Kentucky (8:30p.m., Saturday, March 16 CBSSN) The Monarchs are the clear-cut best team in the league this year and should be able to finish it off in the conference tournament tonight in Frisco, TX. ODU has already beaten WKU twice this season and they need to win this game as well to make the NCAA Tournament. The line has been over adjusted and expect them to take care of business tonight in Frisco. | |||||||
03-16-19 | Blazers +2.5 v. Spurs | Top | 103-108 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 58 m | Show |
We like this price for the underdog tonight for what we think is the better team. The Blazers have a shot to win this one outright. They were off on Friday and have played a light schedule lately while the Spurs enter on a back-to-back. The Spurs are 3-8 straight up in the second half of back-to-backs. The home team has been dominant in this series lately, but we think the Blazers flip the script tonight and we think they have a chance for the outright win. | |||||||
03-16-19 | Flames +115 v. Jets | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 34 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. #43. Take Calgary +110 over Winnipeg (Saturday, March 16 at 7:05 p.m.) As per your selection on Calgary, we believe they are one of the best teams in the league and it's not more evident than when they are scoring goals in bunches for fun. We aren't concerned about them playing on B2B nights tonight as they easily dispatched of NYR last night and should be fresh given the fact they had three days off prior to that game. They now get to take on a Jets team who has runt he gauntlet over the last handful of games taking on the likes of Nashville, CBJ, TB, Car, Wash, SJ, and Boston. That's a list of good teams and now they have to find the energy to play 60 minutes against one of the highest powered offense in the league. We don't believe they have anything left in the tank and we believe Calgary walks away with the two points tonight. | |||||||
03-16-19 | Iowa State v. Kansas -1 | 78-66 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 38 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #626 Kansas -1.5 over Iowa State (6p.m., Saturday, March 16 ESPN) The Jayhawks may have more to play for in this game, as a win may get them into the Midwest Region and games in Kansas City. Iowa State was in a terrible slump to close out the regular season losing three straight games. They got to play Kansas State without Dean Wade but Kansas has been playing with this same team for the last couple of weeks. | |||||||
03-16-19 | Tennessee v. Kentucky -1 | 82-78 | Loss | -114 | 4 h 51 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #612 Kentucky -1.5 over Tennessee (3:30p.m., Saturday, March 16 ESPN) Kentucky will be able to knock off Tennessee for the second time in three tries this season. Getting Reid Travis back is big and should help them inside against this veteran Tennessee team. The Vols have not been the same team on the road as they are when playing in Knoxville. Kentucky is 32-15 ATS (4 pushes) in their last 51 neutral site games. | |||||||
03-16-19 | Wisconsin +6 v. Michigan State | Top | 55-67 | Loss | -110 | 2 h 36 m | Show |
7 Unit Play. Take #605 Wisconsin +6 over Michigan State (1p.m., Saturday, March 16 CBS) Conference Tournament Game of the Year. Wisconsin should be able to keep this game low scoring and take it down to the wire. Wisconsin has won 4 straight games and played Michigan State tough in the only meeting this season. Michigan State still has an eye on getting the job done in the NCAA Tournament and does not care as much about winning this conference tournament and likely playing Michigan again on Sunday. Michigan State is 2-7 ATS in their last 9 neutral site games. The Underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Expect this to a 3-point game either way and we will collect with whoever comes out on top. | |||||||
03-15-19 | Duke -3 v. North Carolina | 74-73 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 32 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #841 Duke over North Carolina (9:30 p.m., Friday, March 15 ESPN) Just do not believe North Carolina can beat this Duke team three times in one season. Zion looked good last night after a long layoff and if Duke can make anything from the 3 point line they should win this game by 6-8 points. North Carolina is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 neutral site games. | |||||||
03-15-19 | Ducks v. Avalanche -185 | 5-3 | Loss | -185 | 10 h 4 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #30. Take Colorado over Anaheim (Friday, March 15 at 9:05 p.m.) As per your selection on the Colorado Avalanche, we are just going to keep it simple and fade the Ducks after they lost 6-1 to Arizona last night. Heading to altitude now with a season that is gone down the tube is not a good spot and the Avalanche will be waiting to take advantage of them. | |||||||
03-15-19 | Knicks +13.5 v. Spurs | Top | 83-109 | Loss | -104 | 8 h 33 m | Show |
The Spurs are 2-10 ATS when laying more than seven points this season. In the past you could trust this Spurs team to run up the score on clubs and they would try to give opponents the dagger when up big late. But this just isn’t the same team this year, and this team doesn’t have the same killer instinct. We think this line is a few points too high and we think the Spurs will do just enough to get the job done but we don’t expect them to win in a blowout. | |||||||
03-15-19 | Bucks v. Heat +5.5 | 113-98 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 3 m | Show | |
This game is much more important for the Heat than it is for the Bucks. The Heat hold a 1.5-game lead for the final playoff spot in the east. They have won and covered in six of the last seven meetings between these clubs. This is the last game of a three-game road trip for the Bucks and they have Philly on deck at home on Sunday, and we think this may be a letdown spot for them Friday night. | |||||||
03-15-19 | Golden Knights v. Stars +127 | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 5 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #26. Take Dallas over Vegas (Friday, March 15 at 8:05 p.m.) We are going to side with the Stars here in this spot as they are in a groove right now and we don't believe the B2B games will affect them tonight against a Vegas team that is not very good on the road. Look, Dallas is fighting for their playoff lives and they can ill afford to drop any more points. We expect Vegas to come out rusty after being off for 5 days, while the Stars are in the groove of things right now, having won 6 of their last 7 games. Now they return home to a place where they are 21-11 and have revenge on their mind after losing to Vegas 4-1 on Feb 26. | |||||||
03-15-19 | Suns +13.5 v. Rockets | 102-108 | Win | 100 | 7 h 58 m | Show | |
This is a letdown spot for the Rockets after their big game against Golden State last time out. This line looks inflated by a couple points to us. The Suns are playing some of their best basketball of the season right now and this looks like a team that wants to enter the offseason with some momentum as opposed to some tanking teams out there. They have covered six of their last eight games overall, including an outright win over Golden State. | |||||||
03-15-19 | Lakers +11.5 v. Pistons | 97-111 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 59 m | Show | |
This is just too many points for the Pistons to be laying tonight. This team has gotten blown out the last two games, and they scored only 74 and 75 points in those contests. They failed to cover those games by almost 60 points! They are just not in good form right now. This is probably a good spot for them to bounce back, but we don’t see them winning by double digits. The Lakers are 4-1 ATS when getting nine or more points this season. | |||||||
03-15-19 | Hornets +3.5 v. Wizards | 116-110 | Win | 100 | 6 h 58 m | Show | |
Charlotte hasn’t been playing well lately, but we think this is a very winnable game for them. Despite their similar records, we think the Hornets are the better team in this matchup. They are the more likely team to make the playoffs if either of these teams were to make it, and we think this is a must-win game for them in order to push themselves closer to that goal. They have won the last two matchups, and we think they match up well here. | |||||||
03-15-19 | Central Michigan v. Buffalo -12.5 | 81-85 | Loss | -108 | 7 h 23 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #836 Buffalo over Central Michigan (6:30p.m., Friday, March 15 CBSSN) The Bulls are far and away the best team in the league and should have no problem taking care of business tonight in Cleveland. Buffalo is 19-6 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 27 neutral site games. The favorite is 5-1 ATS (1 push) in the last 7 meetings between Central Michigan and Buffalo. | |||||||
03-14-19 | Mavs v. Nuggets -11.5 | Top | 99-100 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 43 m | Show |
The Mavs are flailing as the season wears on. At the trade deadline they made a bunch of moves with an eye towards the future, and they pretty much took a flier on this season. They have lost six straight and 11 of 12 entering this contest. Not only that, but their plane into Denver was delayed because of weather problems. And star rookie Doncic is dealing with an injured knee that he has been playing through and Mavs Coach Carlisle admits he has been playing the rookie too many minutes. We think there is a good chance he plays very limited minutes here in this one. Denver played great last time out in their big win over the Wolves, and we think that positive momentum will carry over here. Plus, Denver goes for the season sweep tonight, and the first two games were both decided by double digits. Bad matchup for Dallas here. | |||||||
03-14-19 | Texas v. Kansas -2.5 | 57-65 | Win | 100 | 11 h 60 m | Show | |
6 Unit Play. Take #728 Kansas over Texas (9:30p.m., Thursday, March 14 ESPN2) The Jayhawks are banged up but this game is in Kansas City and I still trust Bill Self much more than I do Shaka Smart. Texas beat Kanas in the last meeting but the Jayhawks are a much better team when playing in the state of Kansas. They will have a huge edge in home crowd and Texas is just not that good. We will lay the short number with Kansas and expect them to win by 6-8 points. | |||||||
03-14-19 | Capitals v. Flyers +120 | 5-2 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 17 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #004. Take Philadelphia over Washington (Thursday, March 14 at 7:05 p.m.) As per your selection on the Philadelphia Flyers, we like the fact that Philly has been playing 'playoff hockey for the last two months. Over their last 24 games, they have won 18 times and need to accumulate as many points as possible in order to sneak into the lineup. A desperate team is a team that we want to back. Look, the Caps are have been playing well lately as well, posting seven wins in a row before falling apart last time out against their rival Pittsburgh. We saw a few things that kept into their game until they correct, will be an issue for them moving forward. We believe Philadelphia has the lineup to cause the Capitals problems in this one and at a nice price of +120, we are going to be all over that. The Flyers are getting a boost in goal with Carter Hart returning to action. Hart has played well in limited time this year, posting a 13-8-1 record with a .917 save percentage. The home team is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings and the Flyers are 4-1 in their last 5 games as a home dog of +110 to +150. | |||||||
03-14-19 | St. John's v. Marquette -2 | 54-86 | Win | 100 | 8 h 13 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #686 Marquette over St Johns (7p.m., Thursday, March 14 FS1) Just do not believe St Johns can beat Marquette three times in one season. The Golden Eagles have been struggling down the stretch and lost out on a regular season title they had in their hands. Despite winning last night, St Johns has still lost 3 of their last 4 games and all three of those losses have come against teams that are .500 or below in the Big East. We have seen through the early days in this tournament that chalk and teams with byes have been holding up and expect that to happen once again in this game. | |||||||
03-14-19 | UNLV v. San Diego State +1 | 55-63 | Win | 100 | 7 h 39 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #756 San Diego State over UNLV (5:30p.m., Thursday, March 14 CBSSN) UNLV has had little success in this tournament despite hosting in on their own floor. San Diego State has already beaten them in Las Vegas this season and will beat them for a third time today. The Aztecs must win this tournament to reach the NCAA Tournament and expect them to advance to play Nevada tomorrow night. | |||||||
03-14-19 | Indiana v. Ohio State | 75-79 | Loss | -110 | 43 h 18 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #713 Indiana over Ohio State (12:30p.m., Thursday, March 14 BTN) Both teams need this win, but I just believe Indiana is playing better at the moment. Ohio State will get a boast with Kaleb Wesson back in the line-up, but they will enter this game having lost 3 straight games. The Hoosiers have won 4 straight games including a pair of blowouts in their last two games. They are getting better and healthy each game and will advance to the quarterfinals of the Big 10 Tournament. This line is short and we will grab it in a big way. | |||||||
03-13-19 | Jazz -7.5 v. Suns | Top | 114-97 | Win | 100 | 10 h 7 m | Show |
The Suns have been playing well lately and are coming off the biggest win of the season and probably the biggest win for the franchise in the last few years when they beat Golden State in the Bay Area on Sunday. The Warriors don’t care much about the regular season and they didn’t give full effort in that game. But we think Utah will give full effort tonight. They have lost three of their last four and are in desperate need of a win and some positive momentum. This is just the team to get a big win against. Utah has won the last five meetings all by double digits. The Suns are one of the worst ATS teams in the league, and this is a letdown spot for them after the big win at Golden State. This looks very much like a double-digit win by the road team to us. | |||||||
03-13-19 | Vanderbilt v. Texas A&M -3.5 | 52-69 | Win | 100 | 11 h 33 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #658 Texas A&M over Vanderbilt (9:30p.m., Thursday, March 13 SECN) This is a low number for a team that did not win a game this season during SEC play. Texas A&M won 6 games in SEC play compared Vanderbilt that went 0-18. Vanderbilt is 3-13 ATS in their last 16 neutral site games. The favorite is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings. | |||||||
03-13-19 | DePaul v. St. John's -4.5 | 74-82 | Win | 100 | 10 h 29 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #654 St Johns over DePaul (9:30p.m., Thursday, March 13 FS1) The Red Storm must win this game and I finally believe that can put together a complete 40 minute game. The Blue Demons have always been a bottom feeder team in the Big East and you just cannot count on them to win games consistently in the tournament. DePaul is 6-20 ATS in their last 26 neutral site games. | |||||||
03-13-19 | Nebraska v. Rutgers +1.5 | 68-61 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 23 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #648 Rutgers over Nebraska (6:30p.m., Wednesday, March 13 BTN) Tim Miles days are numbered as head coach at Nebraska. This should have been an NCAA Tournament team but they fell apart once Isaac Copeland went down and will likely be one and done in this tournament. Nebraska was dominated by Iowa for most of their last game before Iowa choked but I do not see them carry that momentum into this game. Nebraska is 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games. Rutgers is 6-1 ATS (1 push) in their last 8 games. | |||||||
03-12-19 | Blazers -2 v. Clippers | Top | 125-104 | Win | 100 | 10 h 20 m | Show |
Portland has covered six of the last eight meetings between these clubs. The Clippers have been playing very well lately, but they are in a tough spot tonight coming in on a back-to-back and after playing Doc Rivers old team in the Celtics last night. This is a tough task facing a Portland team that has had two nights off. After a big winning streak the Blazers have lost two of three, and they should enter this game angry and fired up against a fatigued team. | |||||||
03-12-19 | St. Mary's v. Gonzaga OVER 136.5 | 60-47 | Loss | -109 | 10 h 56 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #616 Over in St Mary’s vs Gonzaga (9p.m., Tuesday, March 12 ESPN) The Gaels cannot tentative in this game if they have any hopes of winning it. They are going to have to score in the 70s and thus expect this game to go over the posted total. This line keeps coming down and now I believe the value lies with the over. Gonzaga has gone over the posted total in 4 of their last 5 games. | |||||||
03-12-19 | Stars -131 v. Sabres | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 59 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #049. Take Dallas -130 over Buffalo (Tuesday, March 12 at 7:05 p.m.) As per your selection on the Dallas Stars, we simply continue to fade the Buffalo Sabres as they have a miserable finish to their season. The Sabres are on a four-game losing streak and have lost 8 of their last 10 games. They now have to host a rested Dallas team without their captain and best player, Jack Eichel. That's a tough proposition and we just don't believe the Sabres have what it takes this late in the season to make up for his absence. Dallas is in the thick of a playoff race as they hold the first wild card spot, but are just one point up on Minnesota and two points up on Arizona who are just out of the wild card spots at the moment. Dallas has been playing well of late winning four of their last five games with the only setback being to Chicago - a team who his on fire right now. We believe the great Dallas defense (3rd in GAA) will limit the Sabres and the offense will do just enough to eek out two points. Take the Stars and enjoy a nice bounce-back winner. | |||||||
03-12-19 | Pittsburgh v. Boston College +1.5 | 80-70 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 58 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #606 Boston College over Pittsburgh (7p.m., Tuesday, March 12 ESPNU) The Panthers finished at the bottom of the standings in the ACC and we will wade them again on Tuesday. Boston College won the only meeting with Pittsburgh this season by 9 points and they should be able to win this game by 4-6 points. Boston College is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 neutral site games. | |||||||
03-12-19 | Wake Forest +7.5 v. Miami-FL | 71-79 | Loss | -105 | 1 h 57 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #601 Wake Forest over Miami (12p.m., Tuesday, March 12 ESPN2) Miami is not good enough to be laying this many points against any ACC team. Wake Forest played pretty well for most of their last game against Florida State being falling apart in the end. I believe that they can hang with Florida State for all 40 minutes. Wake Forest is 4-1 ATS (1 push) in their last 6 games against Miami. | |||||||
03-11-19 | Celtics -2 v. Clippers | Top | 115-140 | Loss | -108 | 10 h 7 m | Show |
We thought the Celtics would turn the corner at some point and start playing better. They have, and they come into this one having won all three games on the current road trip, including that big win over the Warriors. We think the positive momentum will continue here against a Clippers team that will be overmatched out on the court. The Clippers have won four straight, but the only impressive win was against OKC, and they were on a tough back-to-back. We had this line handicapped at 5.5, so we think there is nice value here tonight. | |||||||
03-11-19 | Hurricanes v. Avalanche -101 | 3-0 | Loss | -101 | 10 h 40 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. #046. Take Colorado over Carolina (Monday, March 11 at 9:05 p.m.) As per your selection on the Colorado Avalanche, we are going to ride their recent home form and bank on them getting the job done tonight vs Carolina. Look, Colorado went through a slump about a month or so ago, but have snapped out of it in a big way, posting a 6-3-1 record int heir last 10. They've also been dominant at home, five of their last 6 home games and outscoring their opponents 23-10. Now they get to face a Carolina team who has been so-so on the road and who is coming off a win against a Nashville team that seems more impressive than it really is given how Nashville has been playing lately. Look, Colorado is in the thick of a playoff race in the Western Conference and they are home and rested and with extra time off after this game, there's no reason to believe they don't come out with a solid and full 60-minutes of hockey. Carolina is playing their third game in four days and playing at altitude in the last game is going to be the crutch that holds them back. Fatigue will set in and they won't have enough left in the tank to deal with the speed of the Avalanche. Colorado has won four of the last 5 meetings vs Carolina and is 10-1 against the Hurricanes in Colorado. | |||||||
03-11-19 | Thunder v. Jazz -3 | 98-89 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 38 m | Show | |
The Jazz slipped up last time out in a poor performance in Memphis, and they have had two days off since to get back into a good state of mind as a team and we think they will be ready tonight. Utah has to remember when these teams met late last month in OKC and the Jazz lost by a point in OT. Revenge is an overrated handicapping aspect for NBA, but it does come into play when teams have recently met. And we think home cooking will get the Jazz over the hump tonight. | |||||||
03-11-19 | Pistons +2.5 v. Nets | 75-103 | Loss | -107 | 7 h 12 m | Show | |
Detroit has won three of four in this series, and the one they didn’t win was last time out, and that was only a one-point loss in OT. Detroit is playing very well lately. They have won eight of nine and covered in seven of their last eight. Brooklyn has been playing well, but they haven’t been covering as the oddsmakers have overvalued this team, and they are 1-5 ATS in their last six. The Pistons have been more reliable lately, and we had this game handicapped as a pickem. | |||||||
03-11-19 | Ball State v. Eastern Michigan -2.5 | 61-43 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 36 m | Show | |
6 Unit Play. Take #782 Eastern Michigan over Ball State (7p.m., Monday, March 11 ESPN+) The Eagles look to sweep the Cardinals three straight times this season. They finished 3 games ahead of the Cardinals in the MAC Standing and playing this game at home should allow them to advance to Cleveland later this week. Ball State is 8-26 ATS in their last 34 MAC games. Eastern Michigan is 18-7 ATS in their last 25 MAC games. The favorite is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports | |||||||
03-10-19 | Wisconsin -2.5 v. Ohio State | 73-67 | Win | 100 | 16 h 52 m | Show | |
7 Unit Play. Take #843 Wisconsin over Ohio State (4:30p.m., Sunday, March 9 CBS) Due to the Saturday results in the Big 10, Wisconsin now must win this game in order to secure a double bye next week in the Big 10 Tournament. Ohio State has been leaking oil over the last few weeks and will enter this game having lost 5 of their last 7 games. Through in the fact that Kaleb Wesson is out for this game and they will have trouble defending Wisconsin in the paint. The Buckeyes will get a boast from senior day, but that will not be enough to allow them to win this game. The favorite is 11-4 ATS in the last 15 meetings. Ohio State is 5-13 ATS in their last 18 games. Wisconsin is 13-5 ATS (1 push) in their last 19 road games. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports | |||||||
03-09-19 | Suns v. Blazers -12.5 | Top | 120-127 | Loss | -102 | 9 h 28 m | Show |
The Blazers have had a very tough schedule lately. They had a massive road trip and then returned home to play OKC to OT in a loss on Thursday. They have lost two straight heading into this game, so there will be no letdown situation tonight. The Suns have actually won three straight. They got a surprise win over the Bucks, but the other two wins were over trash teams. And the Suns are one of the worst ATS teams in the league this season despite getting very generous lines from the oddsmakers. We think this one will be a blowout tonight. | |||||||
03-09-19 | Michigan +3.5 v. Michigan State | 63-75 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 28 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #649 Michigan +3.5 over Michigan State (8p.m., Saturday, March 9 ESPN) A conference title in on the line tonight when Michigan heads to East Lansing to take on the Spartans. Michigan State is really injured, and this is a game Michigan can get. Not sure if the Spartans are good enough to beat the Wolverines twice in one season. Michigan is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games at Michigan State. | |||||||
03-09-19 | Duke +3 v. North Carolina | 70-79 | Loss | -100 | 24 h 55 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #697 Duke over North Carolina (6p.m., Saturday, March 9 ESPN) Just do not believe North Carolina can beat this Duke team twice in one season. They are not favored and have a chance for a No. 1 seed in both the conference tournament and NCAA Tournament. Duke almost lost to Wake Forest at home this week but expect a much better effort on Saturday. We will take the points in this game. | |||||||
03-09-19 | St. John's v. Xavier -2.5 | 68-81 | Win | 100 | 23 h 54 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #608 Xavier over St Johns (5p.m., Saturday, March 9 FOX) Just do not have any confidence in St Johns at the moment. The Red Storm have lost 3 of their last 4 games including an 11 point home loss to Xavier. The Musketeers have creep back onto the bubble and this is a must win game for them to keep those hopes alive. They will enter this game having won 5 of their last 6 games have 3 of those wins have come on the road. Xavier is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games. | |||||||
03-09-19 | Arizona State v. Arizona -1 | 72-64 | Loss | -110 | 22 h 54 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #654 Arizona over Arizona State (4p.m., Saturday, March 9 CBS) The Wildcats have had a miserable year but beating ASU on Senior Day and knocking them off of the bubble would have a great way to close out the regular season. Arizona is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games against ASU in Tucson. ASU is 6-13 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 12 road games. | |||||||
03-09-19 | UNLV v. Colorado State -2 | 65-60 | Loss | -111 | 4 h 29 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #656 Colorado State -2.5 over UNLV (4p.m., Saturday, March 9 ESPN3) | |||||||
03-09-19 | Villanova -3 v. Seton Hall | 75-79 | Loss | -110 | 1 h 56 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #611 Villanova over Seton Hall (12p.m., Saturday, March 9 FOX) Despite having a down year Villanova has a chance to win the Big East Regular Season Title. Seton Hall is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 home games. Villanova is 35-17 ATS in their last 52 road games. | |||||||
03-08-19 | Thunder v. Clippers -2 | 110-118 | Win | 100 | 9 h 27 m | Show | |
The Thunder had a much more important game last night, in Portland, and they prevailed in overtime. So not only are they on a tough back-to-back here, but they played an extra five minutes of hard basketball. The win last night was good, but this team hasn’t been playing well overall. The Clippers are underrated and one of the best ATS teams in the NBA this season, and they seem to be making a playoff push despite selling off some pieces at the trade deadline. | |||||||
03-08-19 | Canadiens -119 v. Ducks | 2-8 | Loss | -119 | 9 h 20 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #077. Take Montreal over Anaheim (Friday, March 8 at 10:05 p.m.) No time for a lengthy writeup today, but as per your selection on Montreal, we believe they are in a great bounce-back spot after losing last night to SJ. The Ducks are just playing out the string, while the Habs are in the thick of a wild-card race. The Habs will start a rested Carey Price in goal and he should make all the difference. Take the Habs and let's back in the win column tonight. | |||||||
03-08-19 | Pistons v. Bulls +4.5 | 112-104 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 60 m | Show | |
Chicago has covered in six of their last nine overall, and they are playing hard almost every night lately. The Pistons have been covering a lot as well, but it didn’t take long for this team to get overvalued, and this spread definitely looks out of whack for Friday. Detroit has covered in only one of their last five visits to Chicago, so they don’t play well here. We expect a competitive game here on Friday night. | |||||||
03-08-19 | Jazz v. Grizzlies UNDER 209.5 | Top | 104-114 | Loss | -113 | 7 h 58 m | Show |
Only in this day and age in the NBA where we will see a total close to 210 for two teams like this, two of the better defensive clubs in the NBA. Bot teams have been trending to the under lately, and we think this is another total that is too high. The under is 28-8 in the last 36 meetings in Memphis, and 16-7 in the last 23 meetings overall. We think the Grizzlies slow the pace down here and this one has a great chance to turn into a defensive slugfest. | |||||||
03-08-19 | Bradley v. Missouri State -2.5 | 61-58 | Loss | -103 | 3 h 51 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #880 Missouri State over Bradley (3:35p.m., Friday, March 8 FSMW) The Braves are not the same team on the road or in neutral sites as they are when playing at home. Missouri State beat Bradley twice this season already and expect them to complete the trifecta on Friday in St Louis. The Bears are 9-4 ATS (1 push) in their last 14 games against the Braves. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports | |||||||
03-07-19 | Thunder v. Blazers -3.5 | 129-121 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 7 m | Show | |
The under has cashed in four of the last five meetings, and this is the highest total these teams have faced during that stretch. This game is on TNT, of course, and we are getting down to the playoff stretch drive of the regular season. We think this game will have a playoff atmosphere, and there will be a more intense level of defense and it won’t be a free-flowing offensive game. We think this total is about 5-6 points too high, and we also expect the Blazers to win this one comfortably as they are in better current form than the Thunder. | |||||||
03-07-19 | Thunder v. Blazers UNDER 233.5 | 129-121 | Loss | -109 | 10 h 7 m | Show | |

6 Unit Play. Take #625 Santa Barbara over Northridge (10p.m., Thursday, March 7) The Matadors are coming off a trip to Hawaii over the weekend and that may affect their performance in this game. The Gauchos won the first meeting by 6 points and that is how I see this one going as well. Santa Barbara is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games at Northridge. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports | |||||||

7-Unit Play. #065. Take Calgary over Arizona (Thursday, March 7 at 9:05 p.m.) As per your selection on the Calgary Flames, it's put up or shut up time for Calgary as they have seen their lead atop the Pacific shrink to just three points over SJ with the Sharks having a game in hand. Calgary has struggled lately to the tune of three straight defeats, but getting to face an Arizona team is going to be exactly the doctor ordered. The Flames have beaten the Coyotes three times this season, outscoring them 18-4 in the process. We understand the fact that this game is a B2B after Vegas, but the Flames are desperate to get back in the win column and going back to work right after a tough loss gives the players a chance at redemption. The Flames are by far the more talented team in this one and they should be able to take advantage of a young Coyotes team. Arizona just laid an egg on home ice against Anaheim and we don't believe they have what it takes to get up for a team like Calgary. The Flames are 6-1 in their last 7 after allowing 2 goals or less in their previous game and 12-4 in their last 16 games as a favorite between -110 to -150. They are also 21-10 in their last 31 games of a third game in four-nights situation. The Flames have beaten the Coyotes 5 out of their last 6 meetings. | |||||||
03-07-19 | Pacers +10 v. Bucks | 98-117 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 42 m | Show | |
The Pacers haven’t been more than an eight-point underdog all season, and we just think this is too many points for the underdog. Milwaukee has been one of the best ATS teams all season, but their lines are starting to get inflated. The Pacers have been a good ATS club as well, but the public bettors haven’t caught on because since Oladipo went down there are no stars on this team. Yet the Pacers are one of the best defensive teams in the NBA, and this is a big game for them. We expect them to be very competitive tonight. | |||||||
03-06-19 | Fresno State v. San Diego State -2.5 | 76-74 | Loss | -108 | 11 h 45 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #820 San Diego State -2.5 over Fresno State (10p.m., Wednesday, March 6 CBSSN) This game will be for third place in the MWC and the chance to avoid the No. 1 seed in the MWC Tournament until the final game. San Diego State has won 6 of their last 7 games including a dominating victory over Nevada. With a return trip to Reno over the weekend this is an important home game for the Aztecs to get. SDSU is 33-16 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 51 home games. Fresno State is 0-3 ATS (1 push) in their last 4 games played on Wednesday. | |||||||
03-06-19 | Celtics -2.5 v. Kings | Top | 111-109 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 11 m | Show |
We were confident the Celtics would turn the corner at some point, and sometimes it just takes a confidence-building win to turn things around. They got that last night in Golden State in a 32-point road win, the worst loss for the Warriors at home in the Steve Kerr era. Boston can’t really afford to let up now, and we think the positive momentum from that win will carry over into tonight’s matchup. The Kings have been a great story this season and they have been money for bettors at home, but when both teams are playing their best game the Kings just can’t compete with the Celtics. We might be hesitant to back a team on a back-to-back after a big win like last night, but the Celtics didn’t seem to break a sweat and we don’t see them being in a letdown spot tonight. Plus, they are 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings, and we think they can score a comfortable road win here in this matchup. | |||||||
03-06-19 | Tennessee-Martin -1 v. Eastern Illinois | 78-71 | Win | 100 | 10 h 21 m | Show | |
6 Unit Play. Take #849 UT Martin -1.5 over Eastern Illinois (9:30p.m., Wednesday, March 6) The Panthers are in free fall now and will enter this game having lost 5 straight games and 8 of their last 9 games. Just do not believe the Panthers are good enough to beat the Skyhawks 3 times in one season. UT Martin is 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games. Eastern Illinois is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports | |||||||
03-06-19 | Mavs +199 v. Wizards | 123-132 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 12 m | Show | |
We have been pretty good at identifying solid moneyline underdogs, so we will take a shot on the Mavs here in what we see as a very winnable game for them. They are coming off of two very embarrassing blowout losses, and we think they will want to put their best foot forward here. The Wizards are not a good team. Dallas will have the best player on the court tonight. They have won and covered in five straight meetings in this series. We think this will be a close game and the Mavs have a more than decent chance to pull the upset. | |||||||
03-05-19 | Celtics +8.5 v. Warriors | Top | 128-95 | Win | 100 | 10 h 13 m | Show |
Boston has lost five of six and this team is slumping big time. But we think they play desperate tonight. Golden State always seems to bring out the best in this team, and Golden State has covered in only two of the last nine meetings (one push). Golden State has dropped four of their last seven games, so they are not in top form right now. This team is the worst ATS team in the NBA this season, and the bookies post too-high lines on a nightly basis for this squad. We thought this line should be closer to 5 points. If Boston can win this game then all is right in the world again and the pressure will be off for awhile. We think they put their best foot forward tonight. The Warriors probably don’t care about this game nearly as much as they don’t put much emphasis on the regular season anymore. But for Boston this game means a lot tonight. | |||||||
03-05-19 | Canadiens -130 v. Kings | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 50 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. #039. Take Montreal over Los Angeles (Tuesday, March 5 at 10:35 p.m.) As per your selection on the Montreal Canadiens, we are liking what we heard postgame from the Habs after they lost to the Penguins. They simply weren't ready and playing on back-to-back nights will do that to teams. However, now they get to travel to the West Coast and with rest on their side, we expect them to put in full 60-minute performance and get a crucial two points against a Los Angeles team that is still a very bad hockey team despite beating Chicago 6-3 in their last game. The Kings have won just one game in their last 11 games and we don't expect the momentum to continue in this one against one of the better defensive teams and one of the better goalies in the league in Carey Price. Look, the Habs have a little revenge on their mind as LA went into Montreal early in October and blanked the Habs 3-0. The Habs are going to return the favor tonight and escape Tinseltown with a win and two crucial points of their own. Montreal is 5-0 in their last 5 Tuesday games, 4-0 in their last 4 games playing on 2 days rest and 5-1 in their last 6 as a road favorite. The Kings are a brutal 0-12 in their last 12 vs the Atlantic Division and 15-21 in their last 26 vs a team that's allowed more than 5 goals in their previous game. Take the Habs tonight. | |||||||
03-05-19 | Kentucky -5 v. Ole Miss | 80-76 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 21 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #639 Kentucky over Mississippi (9p.m., Tuesday, March 5 ESPN) Kentucky has not been losing much of late and even when they do it usually comes against the other top teams in the conference (LSU & Tennessee). The Rebels have been going the other way losing 3 of their last 4 games and seeing their tournament status come into jeopardy. That being said Kentucky has much more talent than does Ole Miss and that will become evident again on Tuesday. The favorite is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings. Kentucky is 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games. | |||||||
03-05-19 | Kansas v. Oklahoma | 68-81 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 18 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #633 Kansas over Oklahoma (9p.m., Tuesday, March 5 ESPN2) Just do not think Kansas is going to make it easy on Texas Tech and Kansas State to win the Big 12. A loss by Kansas tonight would eliminate them for the championship for the first time in 16 years. The Sooners are 1-4 ATS (1 push) in their last 6 games following a victory in their previous game. Kansas gets to prolong the streak at least until Saturday with a victory tonight in Norman. | |||||||
03-05-19 | Utah State v. Colorado State +8 | 100-96 | Win | 100 | 9 h 18 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #636 Colorado State over Utah State (9p.m., Tuesday, March 5 ATTSN) Everything is on the line tonight in Fort Collins for the Aggies. A win tonight guarantees them a share of the conference championship. Not sure how much they will have left in the tank after an emotional victory over the Wolf Pack on Saturday. Now they must go on the road in a hostile environment and it will be hard for them to stay up for 40 minutes in this game. The Aggies win but it comes close they the experts believe. | |||||||
03-04-19 | Clippers v. Lakers -4 | Top | 113-105 | Loss | -107 | 10 h 40 m | Show |
The Clippers are building towards the future and they probably don’t even want to make the playoffs this season as they lose their draft pick in that scenario. The Lakers are desperately trying to finish strong and make the postseason, because once they make the playoffs anything can happen with LeBron in the lineup. They currently sit at No. 10 in the west, and there aren’t a lot of games left, so they need every one they can get. This is a very winnable game tonight, and we think the differing motivation will be the difference in this one. | |||||||
03-04-19 | Kansas State v. TCU +1.5 | 64-52 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 14 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #866 TCU over Kansas State (9p.m., Monday, March 4 ESPN2) Does not seem to be much carryover in the Big 12 this year from game to game. TCU looked terrible over the weekend but expect them to bounce back on Monday against a team with a ton of pressure. If the Wildcats win this game, they will be able to clinch the regular season title next Saturday with a very winnable game hosting Oklahoma. That will lockout Kansas from sharing the title for the first time in 15 years. That is a lot of pressure and I just do not believe K-State will be up for the challenge. The home team is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 match-ups. | |||||||
03-04-19 | Hawks v. Heat -8.5 | 113-114 | Loss | -109 | 7 h 40 m | Show | |
It’s not often a team has a letdown spot after playing the Bulls, but that is the case here. On Friday yje Hawks and Bulls played the third-highest-scoring game in NBA history, and this made the headlines in the sports world (yeah, we were on the over in that game). Then they had a rematch last night in a game that was highly-contested almost like a playoff game. So not only did they play a lot of extra basketball on Friday, but they are playing their third game in four nights tonight. This team isn’t going anywhere, so it’s understandable if they take a breather here and we don’t expect to see their best effort tonight. |
