12-27-20 | Suns v. Kings +3 | 116-100 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 40 m | Show | |
The Suns are 1-1 with both games seeing them score below 110 points and the loss on the road where they play today. Sacramento is looking for a weekend sweep of the Suns who are scoring 10 points less than their season average last year. The Kings crushed them on the boards and with the Suns yet to get it together on offense I'll go with the Kings who have won both of their games and are rebounding like demons getting over 50 in both wins. Take Sacramento | |||||||
12-27-20 | Celtics v. Pacers +2.5 | 107-108 | Win | 100 | 10 h 41 m | Show | |
Boston is 1-1 with their win in a hard fought 122-121 over Milwaukee and followed that up giving up 125 points toe NJ and losing by 26 as they were held below 100. Indy has won both their games scoring over 120 in both and are at home where they play their best. They won both games by double digits so Indy at home against Boston who hasn't figured out their defense yet is where I make my play today. Take Indiana | |||||||
12-27-20 | Mavs v. Clippers -4.5 | 124-73 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 12 m | Show | |
LA has won their 2 first games winning by at least 7 and scoring at least 116 points in each. The Mavs lost their first 2 games and gave up 138 points in their last game. Dallas has played terrible getting hammered on the boards and in their last game allowed 35 second chance points while getting none of their own. LA is playing well with George and Leonard who should continue to do so against a Maverick team that hasn't gotten off the ground yet. Take Los Angeles | |||||||
12-25-20 | Nets -2.5 v. Celtics | 123-95 | Win | 100 | 30 h 6 m | Show | |
Boston beat Milwaukee in a close 122-121 game last night and now take on the Nets who scored 125 points but gave up just 99. The Nets beefed up their lineup with Irving and Durant and have become one of the better offensive teams in the league. Boston will have a hard time after their tough game last night against Milwaukee which might leave them tired for an offensive team like the Nets. NJ has a chance to make this season a playoff bound trip if they play their cards right. Take New Jersey | |||||||
12-23-20 | Spurs v. Grizzlies -2 | 131-119 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 23 m | Show | |
The Spurs were 0-3 in preseason and have on e of the oldest rosters in the league. The coach wants to change their offensive style of play adding speed to a team that was more patient on offense. It didn't work out well in preseason as they gave up 120 points a game while scoring just 1-4. With syhe youngest roster in the NBA the Grizzlies not only were 3-1 in the preseason but scored 118 points a game while holding opponents to 104. They are at home for their opening game where they won more than half their games. Look for Memphis to keep an older Spurs team worn down in a road game where they were 13-24 last season. Take Memphis | |||||||
12-17-20 | Warriors v. Kings -2 | 113-109 | Loss | -107 | 12 h 47 m | Show | |
The kings have a 2-1 record scoring 112 points a game. This is the preseason so we'll go with them at home. | |||||||
12-17-20 | Wolves v. Mavs -6 | 129-127 | Loss | -101 | 11 h 8 m | Show | |
The Mavs are 2-0 and finally get to play at home against 0-2 Minnesota who have both of their losses at home. With the regular season not that far away Dallas is averaging 120 points a game while Minnesota scores just 104 but allows 115. Dallas is playing well and should take care of a Minnesota team that hasn't got it together on offense or defense. Take Dallas | |||||||
12-17-20 | Hawks v. Grizzlies -2 | 106-128 | Win | 100 | 11 h 39 m | Show | |
It's still preseason but Memphis is 2-0 and average 115 points while allowing 104. They are at home where Atlanta will be playing their 1st road game. Atlanta has allowed over 110 points on average and the Grizzlies with home court advantage should be able to handle this team. Take Memphis | |||||||
09-30-20 | Heat v. Lakers -5 | 98-116 | Win | 100 | 59 h 34 m | Show | |
Both the Heat and the Lakers are 12-3 in the playoffs and have beaten 3 teams to get to the 1st game of the Finals. Most people expected LA to be here but the Heat may have been the 3rd or 4th choice in the East behind Milwaukee, Toronto and the Celtics wo all had better records than Miami in the East. The Lakers not only had the best record in the West but the 2nd best record in the NBA. Miami doesn't have that 1 player like a Jordan or Bird or a Shaq that takes over a game to lead their team to a win. They have won playing as a team with 3 or 4 players being the hero in any given game but LA has James who many people argue is as good as or better than Jordan. He only has a few years left and he's won Championships with Cleveland and Miami with only 2 players winning championships with 3 different teams. It's the last great achievement that would help seal his legacy and separate him from other Hall of Famers. The first game in any Finals sets the tone for a Championship series and James and the Lakers want this one bad, As good as Miami has played they might be wearing down as they are 2-2 in their last 4 games and have allowed opponents to score more than in previous games barring OT games while LA has scored over 110 points in 7 of their last 8 wins. Both teams know the 1st game sets the tone in the series so I think LA and James with his surrounding players will be too much for Miami after the tough series the had with Boston as they are 6-3 in their last 9 games and LA is 8-1. Take Los Angeles | |||||||
09-25-20 | Heat +3.5 v. Celtics | 108-121 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 3 m | Show | |
Miami can close out the series today with a win and my thinking hasn't changed much since we had Miami in the last meeting. This is what I said last time. --"Boston has been vulnerable losing 5 of their last 8 games and 2 of their last 3 against Miami. They are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Conference Finals and that must be playing on their minds. The Heat know that a win today is probably the biggest win so far. Boston cannot afford to fall behind 3 games to 1 which is a very difficult deficit. But they have played like that all through the playoffs-- playing come from behind. I don't think the Heat will let them do that in today's game. In their last 10 games the Heat have been the dog twice covering both times" The one difference is Miami takes the series if they win today and what could be more important. Have to do it again! Take Miami | |||||||
09-23-20 | Celtics v. Heat +3.5 | 109-112 | Win | 100 | 14 h 28 m | Show | |
Miami jumped out to a 2-1 lead in the series led by their defense which has held opponents below their scoring average in 75% of their games. They are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 games holding opponents 10 104 points or less in 5 of their last 8 games. They have fallen behind i their games with Boston and had to play catch up. They need to take control of the game in the earlier stages as to not wear at the end. Boston has been vulnerable losing 5 of their last 8 games and 2 of their last 3 against Miami. They are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Conference Finals and that must be playing on their minds. The Heat knw that a win today is probably the biggest win so far. Boston cannot afford to fall behind 3 games to 1 which is a very difficult deficit. But they have played like tat all through the playoffs-- playing come from behind. I don't think the Heat will let them do that in today's game. In their last 10 games the Heat have been the dog twice covering both times. Take Miami | |||||||
09-08-20 | Heat -3 v. Bucks | 103-94 | Win | 100 | 10 h 1 m | Show | |
REASONS FOR 8* PLAY Nobody wants this series to end today as Miami. They have shown all year and especially in the playoffs that as a team they can play with anybody in the league and win. This is all because of a defense when on just might be 2nd to none. With the Bucks top player and scorer hurting, they might get 10 minutes out of him like in the last in the last game. The Heat let down their guard with a comfortable lead in the 4th quarter and it resulted in an OT loss they don't want to see repeated. They have won 7 of their 8 playoff games and held the highest scoring team in the league below their scoring average in 3 of the 4 games with the Bucks having to reach it with the help of OT. Miami is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 overall. 4-0 ATS in their last 4 as a favorite - 23-8 ATS in their last 31 after a loss - and 20-8 in their last 28 as a playoff favorite. The Bucks are 10-25-1 ATS in their last 36 playoff games as a dog - 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 following a win and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 ATS against teams with winning records. For my money it points in 1 way. Take Miami | |||||||
09-07-20 | Celtics v. Raptors +2 | 111-89 | Loss | -108 | 11 h 42 m | Show | |
REASONS FOR 9* PLAY Toronto has come back to tie the series 2-2 after falling behind 2-0. Boston might have been playing over their heads and Toronto not up to their potential. They are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games as a dog and 6-0-1 in their last 7 as a playoff dog. They are also 14-5-1 in their last 20 home games against teams with a road winning record of .600 or better and 11-4-1 in their last 15 after scoring at least 100 points. They are 5th in the league in scoring % where Boston is 11th with the Raptors also leading the league in defensive scoring. They also hold an edge over Boston in scoring, rebounding and 3 point %. At this point the biggest advantage they have is momentum. Take Toronto | |||||||
09-04-20 | Bucks v. Heat +5.5 | 100-115 | Win | 100 | 10 h 28 m | Show | |
REASONS FOR 9* PLAY The Heat have shown the NBA tat they definitely belong among the elites. They have won all 6 of their playoff games including their first 2 games in the series against the Bucks. Not only have they won all 6 playoff games but are 6-0 ATS as well. Their defense has stepped up holding 5 of their last 10 0pponents to 101 points or less Milwaukee was 1st in scoring during the regular season with 118.7 average and led the league in point differential at +10.1, the only team in the league with a positive double digit differential. Things have changed in the playoffs. Their scoring is down and haven't reached their season average in 4 of their 7 games. They are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 against teams with a winning home record, 0-4 ATS in their last 4 against teams with a winning record and 0-4 ATS against teams with a winning home record greater than .600. One more thing. They have had their heads involved with all the unrest in the country and one of the leaders in the NBA in action and protests. This has to be a distraction on some level. Take Miami | |||||||
09-02-20 | Thunder +6 v. Rockets | 102-104 | Win | 100 | 12 h 36 m | Show | |
REASONS FOR 8* PLAY Each team is 3-3 in this series with the 7th and deciding game today. Houston covered when the spread was 2 points or less twice and once when it was 5 OKC covered twice when the spread was 3 or less and once when it was 5.5. This isn't just any playoff game but the deciding 7th game. This is also the most the spread has been all series. Bothe teams should be playing very hard and I would expect a close game considering how close they are in stats except that OKC has the better defense. Because of that defense Houston has been forced into more TO's and that led to losses as OKC has won 3 of the last 4 games. Take OKC | |||||||
08-31-20 | Heat +5.5 v. Bucks | 115-104 | Win | 100 | 11 h 46 m | Show | |
REASONS FOR 8* PLAY Miami has won 4 straight and those were against a pretty good Pacer team. Each win was by at least 9 points and they covered the spread in all 4 as well. They were 1 of 3 teams that beat the Bucks during the season meetings winning 2-1 in the 3 games played. Miami is 5-2 AS in their last 7 overall and the Bucks are 4-2-1 ATS in their last 7. In Miami's last wins, they held 4 of those opponents to 101 points or less and under 100 points in 2 of them. The Bucks held just 1 opponent to less than 106 points in only 1 of their last 10 games. The Bucks were 1 of the teams who lead the protests that postponed some games and may have led to them being the only team not to sweep all 4 games in the 1st round off the playoffs. Miami knows they can beat this team and matchup very well with them in a bunch of offensive and defensive categories. Take Miami | |||||||
08-30-20 | Celtics v. Raptors -2 | 112-94 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 49 m | Show | |
REASONS FOR 9* PLAY Toronto has won 4 straight and 9 of their last 10 overall. They lead the NBA in defense while their offense has won by double digits in 3 of the 4 and scoring at least 117 points in 5 of their last 6 including a crushing 150 point performance in their last game. They are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 playoff games as the favorite and 22-8-2 in their last 32 games against teams with road records of at least .600. Boston is 2-5 in their last 7 as a playoff dog and 0-4 in their last 4 Conference Semi Finals. They have been held their 113 point scoring average in 4 of their last 5 games. They are a very good team but today are playing a team that has destroyed opponents all year. They need to play almost a perfect game to pull out a win and against Toronto that is a tough task. Take Toronto | |||||||
08-25-20 | Jazz -3 v. Nuggets | 107-117 | Loss | -104 | 13 h 31 m | Show | |
REASONS FOR 8* PLAY It's win or go home for Denver and allowing the Jazz to score at lest 124 points in every game so far is a recipe for another loss. The only game Denver won was the 1st game and they needed OT to do it. The take away is they can't stop Utah from scoring and that is the only way they will win. Donic being injured has made a bigger difference than expected and it looks like he'll sit this one out as well. Dallas is 2-6 in the last 8 meetings and 3 of the losses were in the last 3 games. With the Jazz just 1 game away from ending this, they have the momentum for sure. Take Utah | |||||||
08-24-20 | Rockets v. Thunder +3.5 | 114-117 | Win | 100 | 7 h 44 m | Show | |
GAME OF THE YEAR! Houston is 4-9 ATS in their last 13 as the favorite. They are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 on one day's rest. They are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games after a loss.

08-24-20 | Bucks v. Magic +13.5 | 121-106 | Loss | -102 | 5 h 36 m | Show | |
REASONS FOR 8* PLAY The Bucks are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games on one day's rest. They are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games after a win. They are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games after allowing opponents to score over 100 points in the previous game. The Magic are 12-5 in their last 17 ATS after scoring over 00 points in a game. Over their last 10 games, the Bucks only covered the spread in it was under 13 points. In head to head meetings, this is the 1st time the line exceeded 13 points and the Bucks never covered a line bigger than 13 in any of their meetings. Take Orlando | |||||||
08-23-20 | Nuggets v. Jazz -3 | 127-129 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 59 m | Show | |

They are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 on one days rest and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Quarter Final games. Denver is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 against teams with winning records and 1-7 ATS in their last 8 meetings with Utah when Utah has home court advantage. The Jazz are 20-9 ATS in their last 29 games following a win. Utah is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Quarter Final games and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 on one day's rest. They scored at least 124 points in the 1st 3 game of the series and won the last 2 games by at least 19 points each. Take Utah | |||||||

REASONS FOR 8* PLAY Toronto needs one more game to move on and the Net injurie have taken their toll. The Raptors have held NJ below 100 points in 3 of their 3 games and 2 of their 3 wins have been by more than 20 points. The Raptors are 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games overall and 5-2 in their last 7 as a playoff favorite. They are 44-20 ATS in their last 64 games on one day's rest. NJ is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 playoff games as the dog and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 Quarter Final games. Take Toronto | |||||||

REASONS FOR 9* PLAY Doncic is questionable for the game and they need all the help they can get. LA is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall and 6-1 ATS against a team with a winning record. They are 24-9 ATS in their last 33 on one day's rest and 7-0 in their last 7 against teams with a winning home record.

They are 1 of the better defensive teams allowing 108 points a game. Houston doesn't play well when away from Houston. Take Oklahoma City | |||||||

REASONS FOR 10* PLAY Memphis and Portland met once since play resumed and that game went into OT as Portland won 140 -135. Today's game is more critical for Memphis because if they lose they're done but Portland still has another chance as they play another if the Blazers lose. Memphis beat Milwaukee in their last game and have scored at least 107 points in 5 of their 8 games and at least 115 in 4 of them.

REASONS FOR 7* PLAY Portland is 2-1 since play resumed and all 3 games were tough. They went 2-1 with both wins at home including an OT win over Memphis and a hard fought win over Houston. In their loss to Boston they erased a 19 point deficit to finally lose by 4. They are just 11-24 on the road and 1-3-1 in their last 5 games after a win. Denver has won 2 straight and has 1 of the best home records going 25-9, good for 2nd best in the NBA. They are 2nd in the league defensively allowing 108 points a game. Take Denver | |||||||
08-04-20 | Rockets v. Blazers +4 | 102-110 | Win | 100 | 8 h 22 m | Show | |
REASON FOR GAME OF THE WEEK Portland has won 2 of 3 against Houston this year and both were by double digits. The Rockets are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as the favorite. Portland is 1-1 since play resumed and in their last game they lost by 4 to Boston, they came back from a 28 point deficit. Houston can score but they give up over 115 points a game and that's not good against a strong home team like Portland. The Rockets have been relying on Harden and have almost become a 1 dimensional team. Houston has played 2 very tough games in their last 2 as they had to come from behind trailing by 8 in the last 3 minutes in their last game and won 153-149 in an OT game in the prior game. so look for fatigue to play against them tonight. Take Portland | |||||||
08-01-20 | Pelicans +5 v. Clippers | 103-126 | Loss | -104 | 9 h 2 m | Show | |
REASON FOR 7* PICK N.O. went 5-0 in the preseason averaging over 125 points a game. They are healthy while LA will be without Williams and Harrell their 3rd and 4th leading scorers. LA won't have their homecourt advantage where they went 25-7, while the Pelicans played better on the road. The Pelicans are 23-11-1 ATS in their last 35 games overall and 11-4-1 ATS as the dog in their last 16 games overall. Take New Orleans | |||||||
07-31-20 | Celtics v. Bucks -4.5 | 112-119 | Win | 100 | 10 h 56 m | Show | |
REASON FOR 8* PLAY The Bucks have the best record in the NBA. They lead the league in scoring at over 118 points a game. The Bucks have a 25-9 road record 2nd to only the Lakers. Boston's leading scorer will be limited to about 20 minutes playing time. They are 3 games behind the Raptors while the Bucks would love to wrap things up for the playoffs. Take Milwaukee | |||||||

01-27-20 | Cavs v. Pistons -6.5 | 115-100 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 1 m | Show | |
I give this an 8*rating. Detroit has gone 3-3 in teirlastv6vgmes while the Cave have lost 7 straight and 8 of their last 10n games and 4 of their last 5 on the road. hey are 4-6 against the Cavs with all 4 wins at home. They are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 with meetings and are 6-3 SU in their last 9 meetings. bad spot for Cleveland. Take Detroit | |||||||
01-23-20 | Mavs -4 v. Blazers | 133-125 | Win | 100 | 12 h 25 m | Show | |
I give this an 9* rating. Dallas comes in with an impressive 27-16 record and a very good 14-5 road record. The home team has won 6 of their last 7 meetings but Dallas in 6-1 ATS in the 7 games and have won 4 of their last 5 games overall. They have scored at least 118 points in 6 of their last 8 games and are 10-2-1 ATS in their last 13 games as the road favorite and an amazing 20-6-2 ATS in their last 28 road games overall. When losing a game they have bounced back going 17-6-2 ATS after the loss. Portland used to be known for their winning ways at home but are just 10-10 there and are only 5-5 in their last 10 overall. They are 0-6-1 ATS in their last 7 at home and 0-4-2 in their last 6 as the home dog and against winning road teams, at home are 0-5-2 in their last 7. Defensively only 2 teams allow more points in the Western Conference. This game screams Dallas and I hear it loud and clear. Take Dallas | |||||||
01-22-20 | Nuggets +8.5 v. Rockets | 105-121 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 12 m | Show | |
I give this an 8* rating. Denver has a 30-13 record and has won 13 road games including their last 5. They have won 6 of their last 8 games while going 6-1 ATS in 6 of their last 7 wins. They scored at least 107 points in 6 of their last 7 wins. The Rockets are really struggling having lost their last 4 games and 5 of 6 overall. They are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games and 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games following a win. Harden is typical of the team now as he shot 1 of 17 from beyond the Arc. There is no question that the Rockets are having problems so now is the time to strike. Take Denver | |||||||
01-20-20 | Knicks v. Cavs -1 | 106-86 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 37 m | Show | |
I give this an 8* rating. Both teams are sitting at the bottom of the Eastern Conference and both are in the middle of a losing streak. NY has dropped 3 straight and 8 of 9 overall while the Cavs have lost 4 straight and 8 of 10 overall. NY is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games while Cleveland is 5-2 ATS in their last 7. The Knick offense has struggled lately scoring no more than 102 points in their last 3 games and they are 1-4 ATS as a road dog and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 as a dog overall. The Cavs are 22-7-1 ATS in their last 30 games against teams with records below .400. Take Cleveland | |||||||
01-18-20 | Lakers v. Rockets -2 | 124-115 | Loss | -106 | 8 h 21 m | Show | |
I give this my 10* late lock! The Lakers led by James is 33-8 and just had their 9 game winning streak snapped at home by Orlando. They have to visit Houston as they are just 4-17 in their last 21 meetings with the Rockets. They got 4 of those wins during that winning streak against 4 teams with records at least 7 games under .500. They got 4 of their last 5 losses on the road and are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games against teams with winning records. LA is 2-5-1 ATS in their last 8 games after an ATS loss and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 against teams winning at a .600 clip. Houston is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 at home and 11-2 ATS coming off 2 days rest. This is a short line and a very tough place for LA. Take Houston | |||||||
01-17-20 | Bulls v. 76ers -7 | 89-100 | Win | 100 | 10 h 30 m | Show | |
I give this a 9* rating. Chicago has struggled winning and scoring all season. They are 15-27 with 13 losses on the road. They are ranked 25th in scoring and 25th on the boards. They are 1-5-1 ATS in their last 7 as the dog and 1-6-1 ATS with 1 days rest. They are losers of 7 of their last 9 and didn't cover the spread in 6 of the games. Philly is 26-16 and a great 19-2 at home where they are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 there. Their last 6 losses were road games while their last 4 wins were at home. Take Philadelphia | |||||||
01-16-20 | Suns v. Knicks +3.5 | 121-98 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 47 m | Show | |
I give this a 9* rating. The Suns come in with a 16-24 record but 2-3 in their last 5. They are without Oubre who scores over 18 a game while they also are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 as a favorite and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 overall. Their defense is ranked in the bottom 5 in the league and that should help the Knicks who have lost 6 of 7 but are scoring a lot of points. They are also 5-2 ATS in their last 7 at home against teams with losing records. Take New York | |||||||
01-15-20 | Blazers v. Rockets -7.5 | 117-107 | Loss | -112 | 13 h 43 m | Show | |
I give this a 9* rating. Portland comes in with a 17-24 record and an 8-14 road record while going just 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games. They will have problems against a 26-13 Houston team who are 14-4 at home and had their last 3 losses on the road. Defensively Portland allows 114 points a game ranking them 21st and their task is to stop the 2nd best offense in the league as Houston averages over 119 points a game. With Portland 1-7 ATS in their last 8 as a dog and Houston 4-0 in their last 4 as the home favorite and Portland 2-7 ATS in their last 9 on the road, in this looks like a no brainer. Take Houston | |||||||
01-15-20 | Spurs v. Heat -5 | 100-106 | Win | 100 | 11 h 42 m | Show | |
This is my 10* NBA GAME OF THE MONTH! The Spurs are 17-21 and 6-12 on the road while Miami is 17-1 at home. Miami just completed a short road trip where they went 1-2 with the 2 losses in their last 2 games. This is a dangerous spot for the Spurs who allow over 115 points a game ranking them 26th in the league. Not only is the Heat 14-4-1 ATS in their last 19 home games but they are also 12-4-1 ATS as the home favorite. The Spurs are 6-21 ATS in their last 27 games after a win and with the heat hungry for a win after 2 straight losses, Miami is a clear cut choice. Take Miami | |||||||
01-14-20 | Cavs +15 v. Clippers | 103-128 | Loss | -104 | 10 h 34 m | Show | |
01-14-20 | Knicks +17 v. Bucks | 102-128 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 27 m | Show | |
I give this a 10* rating. The Knicks are coming off a 124-121 win over a very good Miami team in their last game and have scored at least 104 points in 6 of their last 7 with 5 over 110. The Bucks are maybe the best team in the NBA and are winners of 3 straight and 8 of 10. But as double digit favorites are 0-3 ATS in their last 3. They have also allowed opponents to score over 100 points in 7 of their last 8. Big spread go with the dog. Take New York | |||||||
01-13-20 | Bulls v. Celtics -10 | 101-113 | Win | 100 | 10 h 8 m | Show | |
I will give this a 9* rating as Boston is coming off a 140 blowout of their opponent. Now a home game against a struggling Bull squad. Chicago has lost a lot of games this season by more than double digits. The Celtics should romp. Take Boston | |||||||

CAVS @ CELTICS Cleveland comes in with a 9-21 record and 4 of their wins were in their last 6 games as they went 4-2in their last 6. They have scored above their average of 104 points as they have scored at least 108 points in 7 of their last 8 games. Boston broke a 2 game losing streak and have won 4 straight games and 8 of 10 overall. They are playing good ball now and have scored under 110 points in only 7 of their last 10 games. They should win the game considering they are at home but this line might be a little to much for them to handle they will take a win no matter the score so I will grab the points and Hopefully the Cavs can hang close. Take Cleveland | |||||||

They are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 as road dogs and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 against teams with winning records. LA has been on fire winning 8 of their last 10 games but are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games against teams with winning road records greater than a .600 record. They are 0-3 ATS in their last 3 meetings with Houston with 2 of them at home. Getting the Rockets with this price seems like a gift. Take Houston | |||||||

They have scored at least 119 points a game in 8 of their last 10 while averaging 121 points a game and having a +12.9 differential in scoring and both of those stats lead the NBA.
