11-10-22 | Southern Illinois v. Oklahoma State OVER 137.5 | 61-60 | Loss | -110 | 28 h 35 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Southern Illinois/OK ST OVER I am on the OVER in the Southern Illinois Salukis vs Oklahoma State Cowboys game on Thursday. While both teams were able to win their opening games pretty comfortably, I believe that both teams will have early and often success scoring in this game. Southern Illinois was able to put up 94 points in their game on Monday. Although they scored that many points, they spread the scoring around and didn't have a really main bucket getter. That should cause some troubles for the Cowboys defense that gave up 44 points in the 2nd half to a Texas Arlington team that isn't the greatest. However, OK ST comes into this game as nearly a double digit favorite and I expect guard Bryce Thompson to lead the Cowboys to a 2-0 start. Expect lots of points here. T.M. Prediction: 79-68 OK ST | |||||||
11-09-22 | IUPU-Indianapolis v. Drake UNDER 131 | 48-80 | Win | 100 | 27 h 8 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: IUPUI/Drake UNDER I am on the UNDER in the IUPUI Jaguars vs Drake Bulldogs game on Wednesday. While this game should be a blowout, I believe that Drake's defense will completely shut down this Jaguars team here. In their first game of the season on Monday, IUPUI was able to only put up 39 points in a 49 point loss. Now, they'll go up against Drake who is the favorite to win the Missouri Valley Conference. Although Drake loves offense, they are bringing in the 5th oldest team in NCAA Div 1, into this season. That should help them slow the game down slightly. When the Bulldogs are up huge, expect them to pull their starters and for this to stay UNDER in total. T.M. Prediction: 77-36 Drake. | |||||||
11-08-22 | Georgia Southern v. San Jose State UNDER 134.5 | Top | 48-63 | Win | 100 | 25 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Georgia Southern/San Jose State UNDER I am on the UNDER in the Georgia Southern Eagles vs San Jose State Spartans game on Tuesday. Georgia Southern has some very talented defenders on their team. A season ago, they gave up just 65.62 ppg and had some very low scoring games. SJSU has also seen a lot of UNDER's in the past. Last season, the Spartans only averaged 64.29 ppg. Now San Jose St might be the favorite in this game, but I think that the Eagles are going to shut down their offense and for this to be a low scoring battle on Tuesday night. T.M. Prediction: 59-56 Georgia Southern | |||||||
10-28-22 | Rockets v. Blazers OVER 228.5 | Top | 111-125 | Win | 100 | 28 h 12 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rockets/Blazers OVER I am on the OVER in the Houston Rockets vs Portland Trail Blazers game on Friday. Both of these two teams are very offensive minded and don't have the greatest defenses. Although the Portland TraiL Blazers will be without Damien Lillard for a week or two, they still have really good offense with Simons, Nurkic and Grant. The Rockets run their fast face offense pretty much throughout the game and look to get their youngsters lots of time with the ball. Expect a back and forth high scoring game here tonight. T.M. Prediction: 119-110 Blazers. | |||||||
06-13-22 | Celtics v. Warriors OVER 210.5 | 94-104 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Celtics/Warriors OVER. I am on the over in the Boston Celtics vs Golden State Warriors game on Monday. The Warriors evened up the series at 2 in the 4th game and their offense looked a lot better in that game than it did in game 3. The Warriors had a much better start in that game and kept up with the Celtics in the 1st half, turning on the jets in the 3rd quarter and then pulling away in the 4th. Brown and Tatum both had 20+ points in that game but they didn't dominate the game the way they did in game 3 and I expect them both to have a much better offensive effort in this road game to try and take a series lead back home with a chance to win the championship there. The Warriors did look much better offensively in game 4 though and I expect them to continue that effort in this game on their own home court here to take an all important series lead going back to Boston for game 6. This is a very important game in the series so I expect both teams to come with their best effort here and I see both putting up a lot of points early in this game to try and take the lead and pull away, putting pressure on the other team to come back. I don't think either team will want to trail here and play from behind in this game so I expect them both to push each other to put up more and more points on the board. I expect a big offensive game here from both teams, I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 117-112 Warriors. | |||||||
05-26-22 | Mavs v. Warriors OVER 215 | 110-120 | Win | 100 | 10 h 58 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Mavericks/Warriors OVER. I am on the over in the Dallas Mavericks vs Golden State Warriors game on Thursday. The Mavericks looked really good in the previous game, taking control of that game early and dominating it for most of the way. They have put up 100+ points in 3 games in a row now, despite losing 2 of those games, and I think this is going to be another high scoring game where they have to match the Warriors and exceed their effort to stay alive in this series. This will be a difficult game for the Mavericks with this being a road game for them so they will need to come with their best effort here since the Warriors will be at their best on their home court here. I expect to see the best effort from the Mavericks here too though with this being an elimination game for them, I think they are going to be desperate here and come with their best effort too. The Warriors have looked great in every game of this series except for the previous game, and even then they still made a bit of a comeback in the 2nd half. They have put up 109+ points in every game of this series and they have done it in 5 games in a row now going back to their previous series. I think the Warriors are going to play a lot better on their home court here and I expect them to shoot a lot better from the arc too. I think the Mavericks will be forced to keep up with the Warriors in this game by putting up more points and I see this turning into a high scoring game. I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 121-110 Warriors. | |||||||
05-23-22 | Heat v. Celtics UNDER 208 | 82-102 | Win | 100 | 11 h 56 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Heat/Celtics UNDER. I am on the under in the Miami Heat vs Boston Celtics game on Monday. The 1st 3 games of this series have been on the higher scoring end but they have been decreasing in total points in each game and they just had their lowest scoring game of the series in their most recent game. I think the scores of these games are going to continue to get lower as we get deeper into the series and I expect both teams to come with a better defensive effort in each game. The Celtics lost the 3rd game of this series on their home court and I expect them to give a better defensive effort here to win this game and even up the series at 2. The Celtics looked great defensively in the 2nd game since they were able to hold the Heat to 102 points on their own floor. Kyle Lowry came back in the most recent game for the Heat and he really contributed to the Heat's defensive effort in that game which helped them keep such a big lead over the Celtics in that road game. I think the Celtics are going to make some adjustments now that they have seen the Heat back at full strength and with both teams getting most of their players back healthy now, I think the games are going to be a lot more defensive now. The deeper we get into the series I expect both teams to turn it up on defense since defense is what wins championships and both of these teams have already had some really low scoring affairs in their previous series'. These games already keep decreasing in score and I expect this game to follow suit here. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 98-92 Celtics. | |||||||
05-19-22 | Celtics v. Heat UNDER 207.5 | 127-102 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 45 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Celtics/Heat UNDER. I am on the under in the Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat game on Thursday. The Celtics looked really good defensively for the 1st half of that 1st game against the Heat but they started to fall apart in the 2nd half which led to their loss in that game. They still had a very good defensive effort in the 1st half and were making it very difficult for the Heat to score. I think they are going to work hard to have that same defensive effort in this game but I also expect them to keep it up for the entire game since they saw how it could get away from them when they started to slip on defense. Marcus Smart should be returning for this game too and he is the best defensive player on the team so I think their defensive effort will be even better in this game than it was in the 1st game. The Heat ended up winning that 1st game with a dominant effort in the 2nd half but they didn't look very good in the 1st half and were trailing big the whole time. They played a lot better on defense in the 2nd half though and were able to make their comeback, taking the lead and never looking back. I think the Celtics are going to try harder here to not let that happen again, blowing a 10+ point lead like that and I think they would have had a better chance maintaining it with Smart in their rotation like he should be here. I think he is what they need to keep this a defensive game and defense is the strength of the Heat so I expect them to match the defensive effort by the Celtics on their home court here. I see this being a much lower scoring game now that the 2 teams know what they are playing againt in this series and I expect a great defensive effort from both teams here. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 99-92 Heat. | |||||||
05-18-22 | Mavs v. Warriors OVER 214.5 | 87-112 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 53 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Mavericks/Warriors OVER. I am on the over in the Dallas Mavericks vs Golden State Warriors game on Wednesday. The Mavericks looked really good in their road games against the Suns in the previous round. They put up 109+ points in 3/4 of their road games in that series and I think they are going to play with a more offensive mindset in this game too. The Mavericks have looked good on defense in this postseason but they have also looked a lot better on their home court with their defensive play, resorting to a more offensive effort in their road games where they are trying to put up more points. They won't have the advantage here in this road game so I expect them to come with a more offensive effort to keep themselves in this game and keep the score close against this very strong team that plays their best basketball on their home court. The Warriors looked great in their previous series too, taking out the 2nd seed in only 6 games. They put up 100+ points in all 3 of their home games too, even putting up 140+ points in 1 of those games. I think they are also going to play more offensively here and try to jump out to an early lead where they can try to bury the Mavericks here. I don't think the Mavericks are going to go down that easily though, especially after that impressive performance in Phoenix in game 7 of their previous series. I expect the warriors to win this game on their home court but I think the Mavericks will put up a good fight to keep this a close game and I see the Warriors scoring a ton of points here to try and win this game. I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 121-115 Warriors. | |||||||
05-11-22 | Bucks v. Celtics UNDER 214 | 110-107 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 7 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Bucks/Celtics UNDER. I am on the under in the Milwaukee Bucks vs Boston Celtics game on Wednesday. This has been a really low scoring series in the 1st 3 games, the most recent game had a bit more scoring in it but this has been a really defensive series so far and I think that is going to continue in this game. The 1st 2 games of this series saw only 1 team put up 100+ points in each of those games. Both teams looked a lot better in the previous 2 games with both putting up 100+ points in each game but the 3rd game still went under and I think both teams will try to be more defensive here the deeper this series goes. The Celtics did a good job defending the Bucks in their previous game since he didn't get a lot of help on offense in that game and I think with the Celtics being on their home court here, they will bite down on defense and try to suffocate the Bucks here to take a series lead going back to Milwaukee. Tatum still had a big game for the Celtics but so did Horford unexpectedly and I think the Bucks will give a better defensive effort in this road game to make sure that doesn't happen again so they don't find themselves down in the series going home. The 1st 2 games of this series were blowouts but the previous 2 games were a lot closer in score and I think that this series will stay close as they go deeper and I expect both teams to turn it up on defense to win those 2 games to close out the series. I expect this game to be more defensive so I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 104-99 Celtics. | |||||||
05-06-22 | Suns v. Mavs OVER 219 | 94-103 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 27 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Suns/Mavericks OVER. I am on the over in the Phoenix Suns vs Dallas Mavericks game on Friday. The Suns have already taken the 1st 2 games of this series and both of those games had 220+ total points in them. I think this game is going to be no different and I'm expecting the Mavericks to have be even better offensively here on their home court. The Suns have been hot lately, winning 4 games in a row in the postseason now and they have put up 110+ points in all of those games. Their defensive effort hasn't been great though, they have given up 109+ points in their 3 most recent games and the Mavericks have been a lot better on their home court this year in their games. The Mavericks were a lot better on the defensive end in their previous series, winning most of their games against the Jazz with good defense in low scoring games. They have scored 109+ points in their previous 2 games though and I think they are still going to struggle on the defensive end here against the Suns, even on their own court. The Suns have looked great, Chris Paul has been carrying this team and Booker has jumped right back into action after his injury like he never missed a beat. I think both of those players are going to have another big night leading the Suns, and I expect Doncic to step up here and put up a ton of points for his team to keep up in this game. I think both offenses will keep pushing the other to score more and I'm not expecting a lot of defense in this game. I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 121-114 Suns. | |||||||
05-03-22 | Warriors v. Grizzlies OVER 227.5 | 101-106 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 44 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Warriors/Grizzlies OVER. I am on the over in the Golden State Warriors vs Memphis Grizzlies game on Tuesday. The Warriors have already taken the 1st game of this series in Memphis but that was a really close game that they only won by 1 point and the game was very high scoring too, with both teams reaching 115+ points in that game. I think this game is going to be another high scoring affair here since the Warriors struggled on defense in that game and the Grizzlies have a very high powered offense. Draymond Green did get ejected in that game which was a huge blow to the Warriors and their defense but the Grizzlies were winning the game at that point and the Warriors had to make a comeback in the 2nd half anyway. I think the Grizzlies have too many talented players that can score and I think it is going to be tough for the Warriors to shut them down here with defense. The Grizzlies don't play a lot of defense in their games either so if they fall behind here they will be resorting to a heavy offensive effort to try and tie the game up. If the Grizzlies do jump out and take a lead than the Warriors will start to pour on the points and with a team like Memphis that doesn't play defense well, it will be too easy for Curry and company to score points in this game. I think this is going to be another high scoring game just like the 1st game. I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 121-117 Grizzlies. | |||||||
04-23-22 | Grizzlies v. Wolves OVER 232 | 118-119 | Win | 100 | 13 h 37 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Grizzlies/Timberwolves OVER. I am on the over in the Memphis Grizzlies vs Minnesota Timberwolves game on Saturday. The Grizzlies have looked great in their previous 2 games since losing the 1st of this series and they have been putting up a ton of points in their games still whether they win or lose. The Grizzlies have put up 100+ points in all 3 games of this series, including the 1st game that they lost they still scored 117 points. They have looked better on the defensive end in their previous 2 games since they didn't even give up 100+ points in either game but the Timberwolves also didn't look that great in both of those games and they should score more points here with a better effort from their star players in this game. Towns has had 2 bad games in a row now and I think he is going to step up here and make some plays to help his team try to even the series. The Timberwolves don't want to go back to Memphis down 3-1 in the series so I see them giving a good effort in this game to keep it close and try to hold a lead here as they have the best chance of winning on their home court. Before the playoffs started, the Timberwolves looked great on offense and they had scored 100+ points in 24 games in a row. They don't really give a great defensive effort in their games so they will need to put up points in this game to win and they have already been giving up a lot to the Grizzlies, even in the game they won. I think this is going to be a much closer game than the previous 2 and I expect the Timberwolves to play a lot better and have more offensive contribution from their star players which they have been lacking in their 2 most recent games. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 126-124 Timberwolves. | |||||||
04-21-22 | Grizzlies v. Wolves OVER 236 | 104-95 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 6 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Grizzlies/Timberwolves OVER. I am on the over in the Memphis Grizzlies vs Minnesota Timberwolves game on Thursday. The Grizzlies just tied the series up 1-1 in their most recent game and they shut down the Timberwolves in that game, not even giving up 100+ points to them. They looked a lot better with their defensive effort in that game but their offense wasn't slowed down at all since they still put up 120+ points in that game. I think their defensive effort will not be as good in this game though with it being a road game and I expect them to resort to more offense to win this game. The Timberwolves put up 130 points in the 1st game of this series and I think their offense will be firing in this game on their home court. The Grizzlies haven't really played great defense all year and I think their defensive effort will be lacking in this road game. The Timberwolves have already shown they can put up points on the Grizzlies and that was in a road game, I expect them to put up a ton of points here playing a better game on their home court. I still think the Grizzlies are going to keep up in this game and I expect this to be a close game until the end. I think both offenses are just going to keep putting up points here trying to regain the lead as it goes back and forth and I see there being very little defense from either team in this game. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 125-121 Grizzlies. | |||||||
04-19-22 | Wolves v. Grizzlies OVER 240 | 96-124 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 18 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Timberwolves/Grizzlies OVER. I am on the over in the Minnesota Timberwolves vs Memphis Grizzlies game on Tuesday. The T-Wolves took the 1st game of this series 130-117 and that was a very high scoring affair but there was also no defense from either team in this game. Considering that both of these teams have been involved in a lot of high scoring affairs lately, I expect this game to be no different after that offensive showing in the 1st game. The Grizzlies really couldn't get much going in that game and they ended up trailing most of the time on their own home court but I think they are going to play a lot harder here since they won't want to go into Minnesota down 2-0 in the series. I expect Ja Morant to step up more in this game and I think he will get more offensive contribution from the rest of his team too. The T-Wolves have given up 100+ points in 9 games in a row now but 7 of those games saw them giving up 120+ points to the opposing team. They still put up 100+ points themselves in all 9 of those games and they won a majority of them too so they were putting up enough points to outscore the opposing teams. The Grizzlies are good on the offensive end and I expect them to come out stronger in this game down 1-0 in the series after a home game. The Grizzlies have put up a ton of points in their games this year and they have had 100+ points in 34 games in a row. The Grizzlies are going to get their points in this game and we already know from the 1st game that the Timberwolves can score points on them too. Neither team looked good on the defensive end in game 1 and I expect that to be the same here as the offenses will dominate in this game. I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 132-127 Grizzlies. | |||||||
04-18-22 | Jazz v. Mavs OVER 205.5 | 104-110 | Win | 100 | 11 h 59 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Jazz/Mavericks OVER. I am on the over in the Utah Jazz vs Dallas Mavericks game on Monday. The Jazz took the 1st game of this series and that was a really low scoring game that neither team even hit 100 points in. I think that will be different in this game though and I expect this game to go over the total. The Jazz looked good in that 1st game and Mitchell had a very good night. I expect him to have another good night here and help his team put up more points in this game. He didn't get a lot of help in that game as he and Bogdanovic really carried the team but I expect some more offensive contribution from players like Conley and Gobert in this game. The Mavericks are already down 1-0 on their home court here and I think they will come out a lot more aggressive in this game. They can't go into Utah down 2-0 in the series from their home games so I think the Mavericks are going to leave it all out on the floor here trying to tie up the series. I think they are going to need a lot more offense here and I expect Brunson to step up and carry a lot of that weight. The Mavericks hung around in that 1st game and I think they can stick around in this game too. I see this being another close game but I think the Mavericks are going to need more offense to have a chance in this game and with the total so low here, I like this game to go over. T.M. Prediction: 112-107 Jazz. | |||||||
04-17-22 | Nets v. Celtics OVER 223.5 | Top | 114-115 | Win | 100 | 8 h 12 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nets/Celtics OVER. I am on the over in the Brooklyn Nets vs Boston Celtics game on Sunday. The Nets have looked really good in their games lately and they have had a lot of high scoring affairs too. There has been 220+ total points in 3 games in a row for them now and I think this will be another high scoring game. The Nets haven't really looked good on the defensive end this year and I expect this to be another game that they give up a lot of points in. I think Tatum and Brown are playing too well at the moment and I don't see Durant stopping them that easily with his defensive effort here. He looked good with his defensive effort against the Cavs but they still gave up 108 points in that game and the Celtics have a much stronger scoring offense for them to stop here. I expect the Celtics to put up points here and I think the Nets are going to have to put up a ton of points themselves to keep up with the Celtics in this game. The Celtics have also looked really good lately and they have been really good in their home games. They have had 230+ total points in 4/5 of their previous 5 games and they put up 120+ points themselves in 4 of those games, including their 2 most recent games. Their defensive effort hasn't been that great either and they have given up 100+ points in 7/8 of their previous 8 games. I expect this offense to score with Tatum and Brown playing the way they have been but Durant and Irving have also been hot and I think they will have no issues putting up points with the way the Celtics have looked on defense too. I'm expecting a high scoring game here with a ton of points from both teams, I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 122-118 Celtics. | |||||||

T.M. Selection: Hawks/Cavaliers OVER. I am on the over in the Atlanta Hawks vs Cleveland Cavaliers game on Friday. The Hawks have been involved in a lot of high scoring affairs lately and that continued the other night in their 1st game of this play-in tournament. They put up 130+ points on the Hornets in that game but that has been a common theme for them in their games lately. They have put up 100+ points in 22 games in a row with both teams scoring 100+ points in all of those games. They have also put up 130+ points in 2 games in a row now and I think they will put up a ton of points in this game too. The Hawks have been a heavy offensive team all year and they don't really play defense in their games since they rely on their offense and 3 point game to carry them to wins. The Cavaliers have been good all year though and I think they will give the Hawks a very good challenge on their home court in this game. The Hawks have given up 100+ points in 35 games in a row now and I expect the Cavaliers to be right there with them all night. The Cavaliers have been involved in a lot of high scoring affairs themselves lately and have put up 100+ points in 9 games in a row now, with both teams putting up 100+ points in all of those games. Their defense hasn't been great lately either though and they have given up 115+ points in 4 games in a row. The Cavs just played the Hawks in Atlanta a few weeks ago and the Hawks on that game 131-107. I still think the Hawks are going to put up a ton of points on them here in this road game like they did in that previous game but I expect the Cavaliers to be better on offense here on their home court and with neither team playing great defense, I expect to see a ton of points from both sides. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 127-124 Hawks. | |||||||

T.M. Selection: Hornets/Hawks OVER. I am on the over in this Charlotte Hornets vs Atlanta Hawks game on Wednesday. The Hornets have been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately and I think this is going to be another one for them. They have been putting up a ton of points in their games lately, putting up 100+ points in 28 games in a row with a majority of those games seeing them score 120+ points. Even in their 3 most recent games they have put up 120+ points in all of them but their defensive effort has been terrible and they have been giving up a lot of points too. They have given up 100+ points in 18 games in a row and their defensive effort has been so bad in games lately that 2/5 of their previous 5 games have seen them give up 140+ points. The Hawks are not really the type of team to play good defense either and they have been giving up a ton of points in their games too. They have given up 100+ points in 34 games in a row and they keep having to put up a ton of points themselves to match in these games because their defensive effort in games is non-existent. They have also put up 100+ points themselves in 21 games in a row and I think they are going to put up a ton of points here. Neither team plays defense here and the Hawks have looked a lot better lately. They are on their home court for this game and they have looked a lot better in their home games this year. I think they are going to put up a lot of points on the Hornets here since they don't really play defense but neither do the Hawks and I don't think the Hornets will have issues trying to match the Hawks with their scoring to keep up in this game. I think both teams will push each other to score more points here and I am expecting a high scoring game from these 2. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 131-128 Hawks. | |||||||
04-06-22 | Wizards v. Hawks OVER 230.5 | 103-118 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 48 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Wizards/Hawks OVER. I am on the over in the Washington Wizards vs Atlanta Hawks game on Wednesday. The Wizards have been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately. They have had 230+ points total in 4 games in a row now and in all of those games there was 1 team that put up 125+ points themselves. The Wizards have been putting up 100+ points in 4 games in a row and they have also done it in 7/8 of their previous 8 games. I think this is going to be another game that they put up a ton of points in since the Hawks don't really play defense that great. The Wizards have given up 100+ points in 6 games in a row themselves and in 18/19 of their previous 19 games. The Wizards have also been terrible with their defensive effort this year and they have blown a few 20 point leads over the past few weeks that just shows how bad their defensive effort really is in their games. They have also looked a lot better in their games lately though, winning 3/4 of their previous 4 games and scoring 125+ points in all 3 of those wins. I think they are going to continue playing hot here and put up a lot of points on the Hawks who won't offer a lot of defensive resistance. The Hawks have also been involved in a lot of high scoring games themselves lately, playing 18 games in a row with 220+ points total and a majority of those games were games where there was 230+ points total. The Hawks have put up 120+ points in 6 games in a row and they have given up 110+ points in 8/9 of their previous 9 games. Both of these teams have been pouring on the points in their games lately and partly because neither team really plays defense in their games so they both have to keep putting up points to stay in the games they are in. I see there being a lot of points in this game too. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 132-125 Hawks. | |||||||
04-05-22 | Cavs v. Magic OVER 221 | 115-120 | Win | 100 | 7 h 24 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Cavaliers/Magic OVER. I am on the over in the Cleveland Cavaliers vs Orlando Magic game on Tuesday. The Cavaliers have been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately with 220+ points in 4 games in a row now. They have also put up 100+ points in 5 games in a row now and have given up the same amount in those games. I think the Cavs are going to keep on that pace here and put up a ton of points on the Magic here who are 1 of the worst teams in the league as we near the end of the regular season. The Cavs have also looked a lot better in their games lately with a big win over the Knicks in a road game and a very close loss by 4 to the 76ers in a home game. I think they have also had a tougher schedule lately and I see their offense putting up a ton of points here as they still try to chase the Raptors for an actual playoff spot and not just a spot in the play-in games. The Magic haven't been a team that focuses on defense either and their defensive effort has been terrible in their games lately. They have given up 100+ points in 6 games in a row but they also had put up 100+ points themselves in 4 of those games. I think the Cavaliers are going to show no mercy here and just keep on putting more and more points in this game while the Magic struggle to keep up but are forced to put up more points with the lead continuing to grow throughout the game. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 122-101 Cavaliers. | |||||||
04-04-22 | North Carolina v. Kansas OVER 153 | Top | 69-72 | Loss | -110 | 38 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UNC/Kansas OVER. I am on the over in the UNC vs Kansas game on Monday. UNC has looked good in this tournament so far, knocking off some really good opposing teams this year and they have been putting up a ton of points in the process. They have won 5 games in a row in this tournament and they have knocked off the 2nd seeded Duke, 4th seeded UCLA, and 1st seeded Baylor. I think they are going to continue on their hot streak here in the finals and I expect their offense to be on point like it has been throughout the entire tournament. They have put up 90+ points 2 times in their 5 games, 1 of those times was against the 1st seeded Baylor, and they just put up 80+ points in their most recent game against Duke in the final four. They have been able to hold down the offenses of the lower seeded teams in their games, keeping a few of them at low scores, but they struggled on the defensive end in their 2 games against the 2nd seeded and 1st seeded teams they faced. I think UNC is also going to struggle to keep Kansas off the board here and they are going to have to resort to their offense to keep up with Kansas in this game. Kansas has looked really good on defense in their games lately and they just held Villanova to 65 points in their most recent game but Kansas still managed to put up 80+ points in that game. As a 1st seeded team, Kansas hasn't had to face a lot of really good teams on their journey to this game and UNC is probably the best team they will have faced, other than Villanova. Villanova was a very defensive team though and UNC is the opposite focusing more on their offense in games and putting up a ton of points in those games. I think Kansas is going to struggle on the defensive end here to keep UNC off the board and I expect them to put up more offense to keep UNC down in this game. Kansas has also been really hot from the 3 lately and I think that is going to help surge them into a bigger lead which will force UNC to put up more offense to make a comeback. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 85-79 Kansas. | |||||||
04-02-22 | Villanova v. Kansas OVER 132.5 | 65-81 | Win | 100 | 61 h 43 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Villanova/Kansas OVER. I am on the over in the Villanova vs Kansas game on Saturday. Villanova hasn't been involved in a lot of high scoring affairs lately and they have really been turning up the heat on defense in their most recent games but I don't think this will be a game where Villanova will be able to dominate the game with their defensive abilities. They have done a good job holding their opposing teams in this tournament to less than 60 points in their 2 most recent games and even in the game before that they held Ohio State to just 61 points but I think Kansas is the strongest team they will have seen yet and I expect Kansas to take over this game with their offense like they did against Miami in the 2nd half of their previous game. Villanova does have a good offense and can put up a ton of points when they need to. They have very good shooters on their team and I think they can try to keep up with Kansas on the offensive if the pace picks up a bit in this game. Kansas has already had 3/4 of their tournament games here where they put up 75+ points in the game but they weren't really blowing teams out by 10+ points either and they have been giving up almost as many points as they have been scoring in a lot of their games. Kansas was trailing at the half in their most recent game but they managed to outscore Miami in the 2nd half 47-15. I think Villanova will find ways to put up points on them in this game but I also think they are going to be chasing Kansas for a majority of this game. With the stakes so high now and the Championship game just around the corner here, I don't see Kansas doing what they have done in their previous few games and I expect them to come out strong right from the start here. I see their being a lot of points in this game so I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 79-71 Kansas. | |||||||
04-01-22 | Raptors v. Magic OVER 216 | 102-89 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 35 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Raptors/Magic OVER. I am on the over in the Toronto Raptors vs Orlando Magic game on Friday. The Raptors have been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately and they have been putting up a ton of points in these games. They are playing the Magic here who have been 1 of the worst teams in the league all year and I think the Raptors are going to put up a ton of points on them here with how good they have looked in their games lately. The Raptors have won 4 games in a row and have put up 115+ points in all of those games. They haven't been giving a great defensive effort though and they have given up 100+ points in 3/4 of their previous 4 games. I think the Raptors are going to continue on their run here since they are occupying the 6th place spot at the moment and they would much rather keep that spot than have to play in a play-in game. The Magic have been terrible lately and have been giving up a ton of points in their games since they don't really play any defense. They have given up 100+ points in 4 games in a row and they have been doing it against teams that are just as bad as them and are near last place in the league. I think the Raptors offense has looked great lately led by Siakam and VanVleet and I don't think the Magic, who don't play any defense in their games, are going to be able to stop them here. The Raptors haven't been great with their defensive effort lately either and the Magic have still put up 100+ points in 4 games in a row. I think the Magic will put up a lot of points themselves but because they will be chasing the Raptors all night and I expect there to be a lot of scoring here. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 121-109 Raptors. | |||||||
03-31-22 | Bucks v. Nets OVER 238.5 | 120-119 | Win | 100 | 14 h 5 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Bucks/Nets OVER. I am on the over in the Milwaukee Bucks vs Brooklyn Nets game on Thursday. The Bucks have been involved in a lot of high scoring affairs lately but they have been putting up a ton of points themselves in these games. The Bucks have been putting up 100+ points in 25 games in a row and a majority of those games they actually put up 120+ points. The last time the Bucks even had a game where they didn't score 100+ points was back in January and it's only 1 game sandwiched in between a bunch of games where they put up 100+ points. I think they are going to continue putting up a ton of points in their games here and they have only been getting better as the playoffs approach quickly. Giannis has looked really good too lately and has scored 30+ points in their 2 most recent games. I think the Bucks will have to keep up their heavy offensive production here since they haven't been playing well on the defensive end this year and this will also be the 1st time this year that they have to play the Nets in a road game where they will have both Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving playing in the game. The Nets have looked a lot better themselves lately and have started winning a lot more games now, putting up a ton of points in those games. The Nets have also been involved in a lot of their own high scoring affairs lately and have put up 100+ points in 14 games in a row. They have put up 110+ points in most of those games too and just like the Bucks, they haven't looked good with their defensive effort this year and has been giving up a lot of points in their games too. Both of these teams have really good offenses and don't really like to play hard on defense in their games. I expect a lot of scoring in this game. I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 131-127 Bucks. | |||||||
03-28-22 | Coastal Carolina v. South Alabama UNDER 138 | 69-68 | Win | 100 | 12 h 47 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Coastal Carolina/South Alabama UNDER. I am on the under in the Coastal Carolina vs South Alabama game on Monday. Coastal Carolina has looked good on the defensive end in their games lately and I think they are going to keep this a low scoring game. They haven't scored 70+ points in 3/4 of their previous 4 games but their defensive effort has been great in these games. They have held opposing teams to less than 70 points in 5/6 of their previous 6 games and I think they are going to continue with their great defensive effort in this game. South Alabama has played in some higher scoring games lately but for most of the year they were a low scoring team that looked good on the defensive end too. Their final 3 games to end the regular season were all low scoring games where neither team reached 70 points and only 1 team in any of those games put up 65+ points. These 2 teams also play in the same conference so they are familiar with each other and they did play each other 1 time earlier this year. South Alabama won that game 71-68 and that was a road game for them. South Alabama is home here and I think they will dominate the game on their home floor a bit more than they did in that game and I think they are going to shut down Coastal Carolina's offense more on their home court here. I expect both teams to play a more defensive style in this game so I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 66-61 South Alabama. | |||||||
03-27-22 | St. Peter's v. North Carolina OVER 136.5 | Top | 49-69 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Saint Peter's/UNC OVER. I am on the over in the Saint Peter's vs UNC game on Sunday. Saint Peter's has looked really good in their games lately and they have made it to the elite 8 as a 15th seeded team for the 1st time in NCAA history. They have put together a great run that has shown off their great defensive effort but not every one of their games are won like that and they have had to put up a ton of points in a few of their games already to compete and stay alive in this tournament. In the round of 64 they put up 85 points to take Kentucky out in OT and in the round of 32 they put up 70 points to upset Murray State too. Their most recent game only had a total of 131 points in it but they were playing Purdue in that game who is a more defensive team than some of what they have seen so far but UNC is definitely not a defensive team and I think Saint Peter's is going to have to put up more points here just to keep up with them. They have the story and the cinderella magic behind them though and I expect them to use that momentum to put up a good fight here and keep this game close like they have been in every game they have played in this tournament. UNC has also looked good lately in their games, they are a much higher seed at 8th so their run hasn't been as special as Saint Peter's has but UNC has still taken down some very good teams and have upset the opposing team in their 2 most recent games. They have put up 90+ points in 2/3 of their 3 games in this tournament and they still put up 70+ points in their most recent game. I don't think Saint Peter's defensive effort will be able to hold down the offense of UNC for too long so I expect Saint Peter's to put up points here to keep up. UNC hasn't held any teams to less than 60 points in the tournament this year and I think Peter's won't have a tough time trying to put up their own points here. I expect a ton of scoring from both here, I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 77-72 UNC. | |||||||
03-26-22 | Houston v. Villanova UNDER 128.5 | 44-50 | Win | 100 | 14 h 51 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Houston/Villanova UNDER. I am on the under in the Houston vs Villanova game on Saturday. Houston has looked really good with their defensive effort in their games lately. They were putting up a ton of points in their games before this tournament started but a lot of those games that they were scoring 80+ points in were games that they were also blowing out the other team in. I don't think that is going to happen here and I expect this game to be much closer in score. Houston has really buckled down on defense in their 2 most recent games and I expect them to continue playing with that style since it has been working for them lately. They held Illinois to 53 points in the round of 32 and then they held Arizona to 60 points in the sweet 16. That is really impressive since Arizona was a number 1 seed and they have a very strong offense that is averages 80+ points per game so to hold them to just 60 points is very impressive, especially in a game that means so much. I think Houston is going to give another great effort on defense in this game and I expect them to shut down Villanova here. Villanova has also looked really good on defense in their games lately and they play a very defensive style of basketball in their games too. They haven't given up more than 61 points in any of their NCAA tournament games this year and I think this is going to be another game where they give a great defensive effort since Houston does have a strong offense that can put up points. Villanova's shooting was also terrible in their most recent game and if they continue to shoot like that here, they won't be able to score many points on Houston here. I think this is going to be a close defensive battle that both teams try to grind out to a win with a hard effort here. I expect this to be a low scoring game like many of the games both teams have been involved in lately. I am on the under here. T.M. Prediction: 62-57 Houston. | |||||||
03-25-22 | Iowa State v. Miami-FL UNDER 133.5 | 56-70 | Win | 100 | 17 h 30 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Iowa State/Miami UNDER. I am on the under in the Iowa State vs Miami-FL game on Friday. Iowa State hasn't been involved in many high scoring affairs lately and a big part of that is due to their great defensive play. They have made it through 2 rounds of this NCAA tournament and they haven't given up 55+ points in either game. They aren't scoring a lot of points themselves either since they haven't even put up 60+ points in either game yet. Iowa State is not a very strong team and they probably shouldn't have made it as far as they have this year but their strategy is very clear and it seems to be one that has been working for other teams too since the teams that keep progressing happen to be teams that play good defense and give a very good defensive effort in every game. I think Iowa State is going to have to give another great defensive effort here if they want to make it past Miami but Miami is not really a powerhouse kind of team either. Miami also gives a really good defensive effort in their games too and I think both teams are going to play hard on the defensive end here. Miami hasn't given up more than 66 points in either NCAA tournament game and they didn't even put up 70+ points themselves in 1 of those games. I think Miami will play hard defensively here and will put a stop to the already weak offense of Iowa State. Iowa State hasn't been an offensive team all year though so they will play true to themselves here and give a great defensive effort because they know that is the only way they win this game. I don't think either team is really strong offensively and I expect the defensive plays to take over in this game. I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 63-59 Miami. | |||||||
03-25-22 | North Carolina v. UCLA OVER 141.5 | Top | 73-66 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UNC/UCLA OVER. I am on the over in the UNC vs UCLA game on Friday. UCLA has been putting up a lot of points in their games lately but they are also the kind of team that has played up and has played down to their level of competition all year. They put up 70+ points in their most recent game, blowing out Saint Mary's as UCLA finally found their groove in the tournament. They won their game in the round of 64 by only 4 points though and they only put up 57 points in that game since they held Akron to 53. This has happened before though and even in their conference tournament final this year, UCLA lost 84-76 to Arizona and that was a game that they were leading in the 1st half and then had multiple lead changes in the 2nd half. I think UCLA looked a lot better in the round of 32 and now that they have the taste of the sweet 16 in their mouth, I expect them to put up a lot of points here and try to keep themselves alive. UNC has looked really good lately too and they just knocked out the 1st seed Baylor in their most recent game. They have been putting up a lot of points in their games too, putting up 90+ points in both of their games in the NCAA tournament so far. UNC has looked great on offense and I think this will be another game where they come out hot and try to put up a lot of points. I expect UCLA will match their energy and put up a lot of points themselves to match UNC but UNC hasn't looked good on the defensive end in their games and letting Baylor come back from 20+ points in their previous game really exposed that. I think that the lack of defense by UNC will be the difference here and I think UCLA will take control at some point causing UNC to put up more points to keep up. Either way, I see this game having a ton of points in it from both teams. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 83-77 UCLA. | |||||||
03-25-22 | Mavs v. Wolves OVER 227.5 | Top | 95-116 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 24 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Mavericks/Timberwolves OVER. I am on the over in the Dallas Mavericks vs Minnesota Timberwolves game on Friday. The Mavericks have been putting up a ton of points in their games lately. They have put up 100+ points in 5 games in a row now and their 2 most recent games they actually put up 110+ points in both. They haven't looked good on the defensive end lately though and I think the T-wolves will have no issues putting up the points on them. The Mavs have given up 100+ points in 4/5 of their previous 5 games and most of those games they gave up 110+ points in. The T-wolves have looked really good themselves lately and I think they will have a big offensive night here. The Timberwolves have lost 2 games in a row now and I think they will be looking for a bounce back win here badly. They just lost their most recent game to the Suns by 9 on their own home court and they even had a 10+ point lead themselves for a lot of that game. Their other loss came to the Mavs in Dallas the other night and they lost a really close game to them by 2 points. I think the T-wolves will want to get that game back here but they don't really play hard on the defensive end either so I see both teams putting up a ton of points in this game to outscore the other and win the game that way. Their previous meeting was a very close game in the end and I expect this game to be very similar in competitiveness but I see there being a lot more points with the T-wolves being on their home court here. The T-wolves have put up 100+ points in 15 games in a row but a lot of those games were games where they were scoring 120+ and even 130+ points themselves. Both of these teams are strong on offense but don't give a good defensive effort in their games. I see this being high scoring so I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 133-128 Timberwolves. | |||||||
03-24-22 | Texas Tech v. Duke UNDER 137.5 | 73-78 | Loss | -110 | 58 h 17 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Texas Tech/Duke UNDER. I am on the under in the Texas Tech vs Duke game on Thursday. Texas Tech can put up a lot of points in their games when they want to but they usually only do it against teams they outmatch heavily. They put up 90+ points on Montana State in the round of 64 but when faced with a much tougher team in the round of 32, they kept a low scoring game winning 59-53 and they mainly won that game with their defense like they have in a lot of their games this year. Texas Tech always gives a great defensive effort in every game they play and I expect them to give their best effort in this game. Duke is the toughest team they will have faced in the tournament so far but they are also a very beatable team as we have seen many times this year and I think Texas Tech will play very hard on defense to keep Duke from scoring and they will try to shut them down that way. Duke does not get involved in a lot of low scoring games but they will when faced with a good defensive team. The last time they had a low scoring game was during the regular season when they beat Virginia 65-61 but Virginia would have been the only team since that game that gives as good an effort as Texas Tech does on playing defense. I think Duke will struggle to put up points in this game and I think Texas Tech will try to keep their offense pinned down this whole game. Texas Tech will not let this game get out of hand offensively and I think they will control the pace of play here keeping this a low scoring game. I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 67-61 Texas Tech. | |||||||
03-24-22 | Cavs v. Raptors OVER 214 | 104-117 | Win | 100 | 13 h 8 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Cavaliers/Raptors OVER. I am on the over in the Cleveland Cavaliers vs Toronto Raptors game on Thursday. The Cavaliers have been involved in some high scoring affairs lately and they have been putting up a ton of points themselves in their games. The Cavaliers have put up 110+ points in 5 games in a row now and I think that will continue in this game too. They haven't looked great on defense in those games though since they have also been giving up a ton of points too. They have given up 109+ points in 5 games in a row and they just got crushed at home by 10+ points against the struggling Lakers and they gave up 130+ points in that game too. I think they will be looking to bounce back after that bad game and I expect them to pour on the scoring here since the Raptors are missing some important players to their rotation. The Raptors haven't been putting up a lot of points in their games lately but they tend to play a lot better in their home games. The Raptors have been putting up more points in their home games this year but they have also been giving up more points too. Their previous 10 home games have seen both teams putting up 100+ points in 9 of them. I think the Raptors will play a lot better on their home court here putting up more points in this game and I also think they will ease up on the defensive effort like they have in their previous home games. The Raptors also lost their most recent game and will be looking to bounce back here too. I think both teams are going to put up a ton of points in this game, I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 114-109 Raptors. | |||||||
03-23-22 | Wake Forest v. Texas A&M OVER 146.5 | 52-67 | Loss | -109 | 13 h 27 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Wake Forest/Texas A&M OVER. I am on the over in the Wake Forest vs Texas A&M game on Wednesday. Wake Forest has looked good in their games lately and they have been involved in a lot of high scoring games. They have won 4/5 of their previous 5 games and they have been putting up a lot of points in the process. They have put up 70+ points in 5 games in a row but it would be 9 games in a row if it wasn't for 1 game where they put up 69 points. They have still been scoring a lot lately and I think they will do the same here. Wake Forest has to put up a ton of points in their games because they don't really give a very good defensive effort in their games. They have given up 70+ points in 8/9 of their previous 9 games and they haven't even been playing any great teams during that time. Texas A&M has been very hot lately and I don't see them getting shut down by a team that doesn't play hard on the defensive end. Texas A&M has looked really good in their games lately winning 9 in a row and I think they are going to continue playing the way they have lately. Texas A&M was starting to destroy teams near the end of their regular season and they were regularly putting up 70+ points and even 80+ points in their games. Texas A&M has been hot for a while now and they made a very good run in their SEC tournament just falling short in the finals. I think they will be motivated to win this tournament but Wake Forest is a strong team offensively and I expect them to put up points in this game too. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 82-76 Texas A&M. | |||||||
03-22-22 | Vanderbilt v. Xavier OVER 142.5 | 73-75 | Win | 100 | 15 h 2 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Vanderbilt/Xavier OVER. I am on the over in the Vanderbilt vs Xavier game on Tuesday. Vanderbilt has been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately and they have been putting up a lot of points themselves in those games. They have put up 70+ points in 5 games in a row and a majority of those games had them put up 80+ points. They have also given up 70+ points in 3/4 of their previous 4 games and the 1 game that they didn't give up 70 points in during that time, they still gave up 68 points in it. I think this is going to be another game where they put up a ton of points and Xavier doesn't really give the best defensive effort in their games either. Their star player, Scotty Pippen Jr., was very hot in their most recent game scoring 30+ points himself and I think he is going to stay hot here trying to push his team to a win. I expect him to have another huge game and if he does then Vanderbilt will be putting up a ton of points here. Xavier has also been involved in a lot of high scoring games too and they have also been putting up a ton of points in their games lately. Xavier has put up 70+ points in 4 games in a row now and I think they will do the same on their home court here. Xavier has had to put up a lot of points in their games all year since their defensive effort hasn't been great in their games. Near the end of the regular season, they were giving up a ton of points in their games and gave up 80+ points in 3/4 games to end the season. They are used to putting up a lot of points in their games to win and they should have an easier time scoring on their home court here. Vanderbilt doesn't give a good defensive effort in their games either so I think both teams will put up a ton of points here. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 82-78 Xavier. | |||||||
03-20-22 | Notre Dame v. Texas Tech UNDER 132.5 | 53-59 | Win | 100 | 14 h 32 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: ND/Texas Tech UNDER. I am on the under in the Notre Dame vs Texas Tech game on Sunday. Notre Dame has been on a very good run lately since they had to play their way in to this tournament in the first four games and they pulled off the upset over Alabama in the round of 64 too. They have been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately too but I think this game will be a lot different. Texas Tech has the best defense that Notre Dame will have seen in their past few games. Texas Tech is also 1 of the better teams in the country, in the top 25 before this tournament started, and I don't think Texas Tech is going to let Notre Dame run away with it like they have in their previous games. Texas Tech looked really good in their round of 64 game, winning by 30+ points over Montana State. Notre Dame has been hot lately so there is no way that Texas Tech is putting up 97 points in this game but they could very well hold Notre Dame below 70 points like they did with Montana State and I think defense is going to play a big role in them winning this game. Texas Tech has held a lot of opposing teams to less than 70 points in their games this year and they have even held a few to less than 60 points. They don't normally put up a lot of points in their games because their defense is what has been winning their games for them. I think Texas Tech is going to be in control of this game and I expect them to dictate the pace of the game with their great defensive effort. I don't see either team putting up a ton of points in this game. I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 64-54 Texas Tech. | |||||||
03-17-22 | Texas Southern v. Kansas UNDER 145.5 | 56-83 | Win | 100 | 10 h 21 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Texas Southern/Kansas UNDER. I am on the under in the Texas Southern vs Kansas game on Thursday. Texas Southern has looked very good on the defensive end of the court in their games lately. They have gone 4 games in a row without giving up 70+ points and I expect them to give a very good defensive effort in this game if they want to have any chance of shutting down Kansas here. Texas Southern has a strong offense when it comes to their conference but they don't play in a very strong conference so I don't think they will put up nearly as many points here as they do in those games. Kansas plays very well on the defensive end themselves and I think they will not give up a lot of points to Texas Southern in this game. Kansas does have a strong offense when they need to put up points but I don't think they will need to put up a ton of points in this game to win and they will probably jump out to a big lead early and cruise their way to a win here. I think Texas Southern will still offer a decent amount of resistance to their offense so I don't see Kansas putting up a ton of points here but I don't see Texas Southern keeping this game close either. I think they are going to get blown out in this game and their offense is probably going to struggle against the defensive effort Kansas puts out in this game. Kansas won't need to put up a lot of points to win here and I don't see Texas Southern getting enough to really challenge this total or Kansas for the win. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 76-52 Kansas. | |||||||
03-17-22 | Pistons v. Magic OVER 218.5 | 134-120 | Win | 100 | 7 h 47 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Pistons/Magic OVER. I am on the over in the Detroit Pistons vs Orlando Magic game on Thursday. Neither of these teams play good defense in their games this year and these are also 2 of the worst teams in the league this year. The Pistons just played in a game where they did not put up 100+ points in the game but this hasn't been common for them lately since they have put up 100+ points in 11 games in a row before that most recent game. They have been terrible on defense in their games too, giving up 100+ points in 28 games in a row and a majority of those games they have been giving up 110+ points in. I think there is going to be a lot of points here due to the lack of defense from both teams and I expect the Magic to control the game more on their home court here. The Magic have been in a ton of high scoring games lately and they have put up 100+ points themselves in 4 games in a row. They just gave up 150 points to the Nets in their most recent game too and their previous 3 games they have given up 110+ points in all 3. I think this is a game where both teams think they can win here so both are going to keep shooting and putting up points trying to take the lead from the other. The defensive effort is minimal from both teams and I don't expect them to start playing defense well in this game. I think both teams are going to put up a ton of points on each other as both desperately search for as many wins as they can get before the year ends. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 118-112 Magic. | |||||||
03-16-22 | Bucks v. Kings UNDER 240.5 | 135-126 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 10 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Bucks/Kings UNDER. I am on the under in the Milwaukee Bucks vs Sacramento Kings game on Wednesday. The Bucks have looked really good in their games lately and they have been putting up a ton of points as they are surging at the right time but in their most recent games they have not been scoring as much and I think that will continue into this game too. The Bucks have been putting up a ton of points in games, they have put up 120+ points in a lot of their games lately. Their 2 most recent games they haven't put up that many points though and they didn't even get to 110+ points in 1 of those games. The Bucks have also had a really tough schedule as of late and they have seen a lot of strong teams in the top 5 of each conference over their previous 7 games. I think they are catching a break with the Kings in this game and I expect them to blow them out here. I don't think the Bucks are going to need to put up a ton of points in this game to win it and I think the Kings are going to struggle anyway to put up points on the Bucks here. The Kings have looked terrible in their games lately but when it comes to scoring points, they are a very up and down team that puts up 120+ points on some nights and then barely reaches 100 on other nights. They just played a game where they actually looked good though, winning over the Bulls in their most recent game putting up 112 points while only allowing the Bulls to put up 103. This has happened in a few of their games as of late and most of their games over their previous 7 have even been staying under 230 points. I don't think the Kings are going to offer a lot of resistance here but I don't expect them to drive up this score either and keep up with the Bucks. I think the Bucks will pull away by a lot in this game and then take their foot off the gas with their huge lead since they won't need a ton of points to win this game against the Kings. This total is especially high and even if the game isn't that low scoring, I still expect it to stay under this monster total. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 118-101 Bucks. | |||||||
03-16-22 | Mississippi State v. Virginia UNDER 123.5 | 57-60 | Win | 100 | 13 h 2 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Mississippi State/Virginia UNDER. I am on the under in the Mississippi State vs Virginia game on Wednesday. Mississippi State has not been putting up a ton of points in their games lately and that has been a common theme for them all year. They have put up 70+ points 1 time in their previous 4 games and their 2 most recent games they put up less than 65 points. They have been a low scoring team all year but they have also looked good with their defensive play. They haven given up 70+ points just 1 time in their previous 3 games and this has also been a common theme for them since their defensive play has been good all year. Virginia also hasn't put up a lot of points in their games and they also play a very defensive style in their games. They don't put up a lot of points in their games and they have been putting up even less than Mississippi State has been all year. Virginia has only put up 65+ points in 1/4 of their previous 4 games and their 2 most recent games were really bad for them offensively since they didn't put up 52+ points in either game, still finding a way to win 1 of those games with only 51 points though. Neither team has been good with their shooting lately and they both tend to miss a lot of 3's. I think with all the missed shots and the great effort on defense from both teams, there is not going to be a lot of points in this game. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 59-56 Virginia. | |||||||
03-15-22 | Santa Clara v. Washington State OVER 149.5 | 50-63 | Loss | -105 | 19 h 32 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Santa Clara/Washington State OVER. I am on the over in the Santa Clara vs Washington State game on Tuesday. Santa Clara has been involved in a lot of high scoring games recently and they have been putting up a ton of points themselves in their games lately. They just put up 72 points in their most recent game against St. Mary's but they had put up 89+ points in 3 games in a row before that and this has been a common theme for them all year since a lot of their games have seen them put up 70+ and 80+ points. They do not play a lot of defense in their games though since they have given up 70+ points in 7/8 of their previous 8 games and I don't expect them to start playing defense in their games now. Washington State didn't put up a lot of points in the Pac-12 tournament, putting up 65 and 66 points in those games, but they ended their regular season with 5 games in a row where they put up 70+ points and they even put up 90+ points in 2 of those games. They even won quite a few games to end their year but their wins are usually close and they don't really play good on defense in their games either since the opposing team usually keeps up with them until the end for scoring. I expect both of these teams to hang around with each other the entire game and I don't see either team taking a big lead here. I think both are just going to keep putting up points trying to outscore the other so I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 84-81 Washington State. | |||||||
03-13-22 | Iowa v. Purdue OVER 148.5 | Top | 75-66 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 11 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Iowa/Purdue OVER. I am on the over in the Iowa vs Purdue game on Sunday. Iowa has been a very high scoring team all year averaging 80+ points per game this year but they have had a lot of points put up against them too since they have been giving up 70+ points per game. They have won 3 games in a row now in this tourney and they have been really hot in their games, putting up 80+ points in all 3 of them. They have also been giving up 74+ points in all of those games but this has been a common theme for them all year and it goes back during the regular season too. Iowa really fought hard in their most recent game too, there were multiple occasions where they were down big but they kept pushing their offense and Keegan Murray ended up having a huge day. He put up 30+ points himself and his 3-pointers is what was keeping them in that game. Iowa has been shooting great in their games too and I think they are going to keep that up in this game too. Purdue hasn't been putting up as much points as Iowa has been in their games lately but I think Purdue is the better team here and I don't think their defense will be good enough to stop Iowa here. I expect Purdue to match Iowa on offense in this game since Iowa loves to hit the 3's and this could turn into a huge shootout. Despite the fact that Purdue hasn't put up a lot of points in their games lately, they actually average 80+ points per game and are giving up 65+ points per game. Purdue can put up a ton of points when they need to and I think this is going to be 1 of those games where they will have to outscore the opposing team to win. I expect a lot of points in this game, I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 84-80 Purdue. | |||||||
03-12-22 | Indiana v. Iowa OVER 144 | 77-80 | Win | 100 | 4 h 43 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Indiana/Iowa OVER. I am on the over in the Indiana vs Iowa game on Saturday. Indiana has looked really good in their games lately and they have been playing a lot better over the last while. They lost 2 games to end the regular season but those 2 losses were in very close games and they didn't lose to bad teams in those games either. They have started off this tournament with a bang though, winning 2 games in a row now and they have looked good in those games too. They have been playing with house money having not been a favorite in any of their games but they have put up 65+ points in both games and I think they can put up even more here. Iowa has been putting up a lot of points in their games and I think Indiana will need to match their offense if they want to have a chance at winning here. Indiana has done a good job hanging in their games lately though and I expect them to keep this game close enough to have a chance in it. Iowa has looked even better in their games though and lately they have been on a huge run. They have won 2 games in a row now and have put up 84+ points in both games of this tournament. They have put up 70+ points in 14 games in a row now and they have even put up 80+ points in a majority of those games. Iowa already cracked 100 points in their first game of this tournament and I have no doubt that they will keep up their heavy offense here since they have been shooting great in their games. I expect to see a lot of points put up from both teams here but mainly Iowa. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 88-78 Iowa. | |||||||
03-11-22 | Colorado v. Arizona OVER 148 | 72-82 | Win | 100 | 16 h 1 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Colorado/Arizona OVER. I am on the over in the Colorado vs Arizona game on Friday. Colorado has looked really good in their games lately winning 3 in a row now and all 3 of their wins have been by 10+ points. They have actually won 8/9 of their previous 9 games and a good majority of those wins were by 10+ points too. I think Colorado is going to continue their hot streak here and they just won their 1st game of this tournament over Oregon and they won that game by 10+ points. I think they can carry over that momentum here and put up a ton of points in this game. They have been putting up a ton of points in their games lately with 79+ points in their 3 most recent games. Colorado has won 3 games in a row now but the 1st win that started this run was actually against Arizona and Colorado destroyed them on their home court winning that game 79-63. I think Colorado can put up a lot of points on them again but I also expect Arizona to put up a lot of points too and play much better in this game . This game is not on Colorado's home floor so Arizona should have a better game here and they did dominate their conference all year too, winning 18/20 games in conference play. Arizona has been putting up a lot of points in their games lately too. They have put up 80+ points in 4 games in a row and they have done it 8/9 of their previous 9 games with the win game they didn't being their loss to Colorado, the only loss for them during that time too. That loss is still fresh in their minds and they should be coming into this game with a vengeance. Both teams have been very hot and I think this is going to be a game where neither side plays any defense and they just keep shooting trying to outscore the other team. Both teams have been putting up a ton of points lately and I see this game going the same way. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 84-78 Arizona. | |||||||
03-11-22 | Clippers v. Hawks UNDER 229 | 106-112 | Win | 100 | 15 h 40 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Clippers/Hawks UNDER. I am on the under in the LA Clippers vs Atlanta Hawks game on Friday. The Clippers haven't looked good in their games lately and they haven't been putting up a ton of points in their games lately either. They do have the odd monster game where they score a lot but lately they have been losing games and staying under 100 points in them. They have lost 2/3 of their previous 3 games and stayed under 100 points in both of those losses. Their defensive ability has still been good in their games though, whether they are winning or losing. They have not given up 120+ points to any of the opposing teams in their previous 12 games. They have put up a wide range of scored themselves but whether they but up 130+ or fail to reach 100, they keep their opposing team low scoring due to their great play on the defensive end of the court. Not many teams in this league play defense in their games but the Clippers are 1 of those teams and I think they can keep this game under just by slowing down the Hawks' offense a bit. The Hawks haven't looked great themselves this year and they are barely even holding onto a play-in playoff spot at the moment. They haven't been putting up a ton of points in their games lately either and they haven't even scored 120+ points in their 3 most recent games. I still think the Hawks are going to win here and they might even pull away in this game since the Clippers have not been good offensively but I think their defensive effort is the best chance they have to stay in this game and I expect their defense to show up in this game. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 112-96 Hawks. | |||||||
03-10-22 | Cal-Riverside v. Hawaii UNDER 126.5 | 67-68 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 42 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: UC Riverside/Hawaii UNDER. I am on the under in the UC Riverside vs Hawaii game on Thursday. UC Riverside hasn't been involved in a lot of low scoring games lately but they have been in some very close losses. Their 2 most recent games are both games where they lost by less than 3 points and both teams put up 70+ points in both games but neither team got over 75 points in those games either. I think this is going to be a close game just like those but I expect it to be a lower scoring game since Hawaii plays great on the defensive end and I think they are the better team here. I expect Hawaii to dictate the pace of this game with their defensive play and I don't see either of these putting up more than 65 points in this game. Hawaii has looked really good lately with 3 wins in their previous 4 games and they have only put up 65+ points in 1 of those games too. They are a very low scoring team and have been in most of their games this year but it is their defensive ability that is winning them games. They have given up 68+ points in 1/7 of their previous 7 games and they have even been keeping the opposing teams under 60 points in a lot of these games. The 1 time that they faced each other this year was also a low scoring game, UC Riverside won on their home court 64-59 but even in a loss they kept UC Riverside from scoring a lot of points in that game. I expect this game to be similar to that game but I think Hawaii will play better here since UC Riverside is on their home court this time. I think Hawaii will turn it up a notch on defense now that this is tournament play and I expect to see a great performance form them on the defensive end. I think they will control the pace here and keep this game low scoring. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 62-57 Hawaii. | |||||||
03-09-22 | Syracuse v. Florida State OVER 145.5 | 96-57 | Win | 100 | 7 h 52 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Syracuse/Florida State OVER. I am on the over in the Syracuse vs Florida State game on Wednesday. Syracuse has been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately. Syracuse has been putting up a lot of points in their games as of late, they have put up 70+ points in 3 games in a row and they have also done it 5/6 of their previous 6 games with the 1 game that they didn't being a game where they scored 69 points. Despite scoring all these points lately, they have still been losing a lot of their games and it's because they don't really play well on defense and they have been giving up a ton of points in their games. They have given up 70+ points in 5 games in a row and in 2/3 of their previous 3 games they have even given up 88+ points. Syracuse hasn't really been playing defense in any of their games lately and I don't see any reason why that would change now. Florida State hasn't been in a ton of high scoring games lately but they have put up 74+ points in their 2 most recent games and they just scored 89 points in their most recent game. I think Florida State will have no issues putting up points in this game and I expect them to keep scoring more and more in this game since they will not be met with a lot of resistance. This is also the last chance for Syracuse to make it into the NCAA tournament so I don't expect them to just lay down and die in this game. I think Syracuse will fight hard until the end in this game and I expect them to put up a lot of points here to keep up with Florida State. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 84-78 Florida State. | |||||||
03-07-22 | Bulls v. 76ers OVER 229 | 106-121 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 49 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Bulls/76ers OVER. I am on the over in the Chicago Bulls vs Philadelphia 76ers game on Monday. The Bulls haven't looked good in their games lately losing 4 in a row now but they have still been putting up a ton of points in their games lately despite losing a lot. They have put up 110+ points in 6/7 of their previous 7 games and they have been putting up 99+ points for 19 games in a row, only scoring 99 in 1 of those games. Their offense has looked great lately and I think with all of the losses piling up lately, they are going to come out strong in this game to try and break out of their funk so I expect them to put up a lot of points here. They have been putting up a lot of points but they have still lost 4 games in a row which means they have been giving up even more points than they are scoring. They have given up 100+ points for 20 games in a row now and they have even given up 110+ points in 15/20 of those games. Their defensive effort has been terrible lately and the 76ers are a very good team on their home court, especially now that Harden has been rolling for them so the Bulls are going to need to once again abandon their defense here and keep putting up points in this game just to keep up. The 76ers were also involved in a lot of high scoring games lately too, they had 5 games in a row where both teams put up 100+ points before their most recent game where their offense was completely stunted losing by 17 points and only putting up 82 in the game. I think they will be looking to bounce back on their home court and after a very bad offensive game like that, I expect the 76ers to respond by putting up a ton of points here. I think both teams aren't going to play defense that well in this game and I see there being a lot of points put up by both teams. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 126-120 76ers. | |||||||
03-06-22 | NJIT v. Vermont OVER 130 | 59-98 | Win | 100 | 8 h 15 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: NJIT/Vermont OVER. I am on the over in the NJIT vs Vermont game on Sunday. NJIT hasn't looked good in their games lately with 4 losses in a row to end their year but they have been putting up more points in their games near the end of the regular season there. In their 2 most recent games, they put up 60+ points in both games which isn't a lot but it's a lot for them with the way they have played this year. They don't score a ton of points in their games but they have been scoring more now and their defensive effort has been really bad in their games too. They have given up 80+ points in 3 games in a row and I think they are going to continue to do so in this game since that has been a common theme for them this year. I think they are going to give up a ton of points here but with their offense playing better and this being a tournament game, I expect NJIT to give their best effort here and put up as many points as they can to keep up in this game. Vermont can score a ton of points in their games and both times that NJIT faced Vermont this year, they lost and gave up 80+ points in both games, even giving up 90+ points in the road game. This is a another road game for them too and I expect there to be a lot of points again. Vermont dominated this conference this year winning 17/18 games in conference play. They finished the year winning 5 games in a row and they have been putting up 70+ points in most of their games. They have been putting up a lot more points in their home games though and when they have been on their home court they usually score in the high 70's or 80+ points. I expect this to be another game where they put up a ton of points on NJIT again but I think NJIT will play a bit harder and put up more points to try and keep up. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 80-65 Vermont. | |||||||
03-05-22 | Warriors v. Lakers UNDER 225 | 116-124 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 34 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Warriors/Lakers UNDER. I am on the under in the Golden State Warriors vs LA Lakers game on Saturday. The Warriors haven't looked good in their games lately and they have lost 3 games in a row. They have been losing a lot lately and their issues stretch back even further than their previous 3 games. They have been dealing with a lot of injuries to their key players and Klay Thompson has had some issues with his shooting lately. The absence of Draymond Green has heavily impacted their games too and I think this is going to be a game where others start to step up on defense. They need to stop the bleeding with a win and the only way to do that with how they have been playing is by playing some good defense and forcing turnovers in this game. Luckily, the Lakers have also been dealing with their own injuries and issues, and they will also be shorthanded in this game. The Lakers have lost 4 games in a row now but they haven't put up more than 111 points in their previous 5 games. They are still missing Anthony Davis in this game and I think without him in their rotation, this is a very vulnerable lineup that Russell Westbrook and LeBron James can't carry on their own. The Lakers have been letting the opposing teams they face run away with the games lately and they have been giving up a ton of points too. I think they are looking to stop the bleeding too and I expect both teams to give a better defensive effort in this game, especially the Lakers knowing they are going up against the 2nd place team in the league. I think this is going to be a lower scoring game so I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 109-103 Warriors. | |||||||
03-05-22 | Texas v. Kansas UNDER 138 | Top | 63-70 | Win | 100 | 9 h 56 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Texas/Kansas UNDER. I am on the under in the Texas vs Kansas game on Saturday. I expect this to be a low scoring game since both of these teams play well on the defensive end of the court. Texas has scored a variety of different point ranges in their games this year but on offense they only average less than 70 points per game. They don't need to put up a lot of points in their games though since they give a great defensive effort and they have been giving up less than 60 points per game this year. Lately, they've been letting their games get a bit out of hand but they still have 2 games in their previous 4 where neither team put up 70+ points in the game, and both of those games were their 2 most recent games against another ranked opposing team. They just lost on their home court in their most recent game 68-61 to Baylor, and the other was a loss on their home court to Texas Tech where they lost 61-55. The previous time they met with Kansas, they won on their home court in a higher scoring 79-76 game. I don't think they will put up as many points in this road game though and I expect Kansas to dictate play a bit more in this game. Kansas will be seeking revenge for that loss earlier this year and I think they will play with some extra motivation to win here. I also think that with that extra motivation to play here will come a very good defensive effort on their part and I think they can force some turnovers in this game. Kansas, just like Texas, plays great on the defensive end but they have been giving up more points than Texas while also scoring more points than them. I think Kansas won't be able to put up a ton of points in this game with Texas' defensive effort but I also think Kansas will give their own defensive effort to win this game and I really think Texas will struggle in this road game to put up points since they have not been great in road games this year. I expect this to be a low scoring game, I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 66-60 Kansas. | |||||||
03-04-22 | Bucks v. Bulls OVER 238 | Top | 118-112 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 58 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bucks/Bulls OVER. I am on the over in the Milwaukee Bucks vs Chicago Bulls game on Friday. The Bucks have been putting up a ton of points in their games lately and they have been starting to look a lot better in their games too. They have won 2 games in a row now and they have put up 120+ points in 5 games in a row. They have been scoring a lot in their games for a while now, they have consistently put up 100+ points in 13 games in a row and 9 of those games they put up 120+ points in. They have been a scoring machine lately and considering that the Bulls are the team that lead their division at the moment, I expect the Bucks to come in full force here. Even though they have been putting up a lot of points in their games, their defensive effort is really the reason why. The Bucks lack a huge defensive presence on the floor so they have to keep putting up the points in their games to keep up with the other team or to keep ahead in the game since they really don't play defense at all. They have given up 100+ points in 10 games in a row and again, in a lot of those games they were giving up 120+ points to the opposing team. The Bulls have also been a team that is putting up a ton of points lately. They have put up 100+ points in 17/18 of their previous 18 games but again, with a lot of those games they have been putting up 120+ points. The Bulls have been no slouch this year and they defend their home court really well. These 2 teams are fighting for the 1st place spot in the Central Division and I expect the Bulls to put up a very good challenge for the Bucks here. Neither of these teams have really been giving a good effort on defense in their games but they both put up a ton of points. I expect this to be another game where neither team really gives a good effort on defense and I expect both teams to keep driving the score up with each other, looking to put up more and more points all night. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 127-124 Bucks. | |||||||
03-04-22 | North Carolina A&T v. Longwood UNDER 137 | 65-79 | Loss | -105 | 6 h 18 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: North Carolina A&T/Longwood UNDER. I am on the under in the North Carolina A&T vs Longwood game on Friday. NC A&T won in the 1st round of this tournament against Radford but they had finished their year off with 4 losses in a row and they looked really bad in most of those games. Their final 3 games to end the regular season were all losses where they didn't even put up 65+ in any of the games, and they failed to even reach 60 points in the 2 most recent games to end off the regular season. They did put up 78 points against Radford but I think they are going to have a much tougher time trying to score in this game. Longwood won the conference this year and they have been dominating in their conference play too, winning 15/16 games in conference play this year. Longwood hasn't played in almost a week now so they should be well rested for this game. They ended their year off winning 5 games in a row but they never put up 80+ points in any of those games. Longwood has been putting up around the low 70's in points lately but it has really been their defense that has been winning their games since they have looked great on the defensive end lately. They haven't given up 70+ points in 6/9 of their previous 9 games but even in the games they did, the most the opposing team ever got to in 1 of those games was 72 points. Longwood was the best team in their conference all year and I don't see why they are going to let off the gas now, especially when their defensive play has been so good. I expect them to give another great defensive effort in this game and keep the opposing team from scoring a lot of points. I don't think they are going to need to put up a lot of points to win this game either so I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 70-57 Longwood. | |||||||
02-27-22 | Celtics v. Pacers UNDER 223.5 | 107-128 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 17 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Celtics/Pacers UNDER. I am on the under in the Boston Celtics vs Indiana Pacers game on Sunday. The Celtics have been very hot lately and they have looked good in a lot of their games. They have been winning a lot lately and they even look great with the defensive effort they've been giving in their games. Over their previous 12 games, they have given up 110+ points 1 time, 105+ points 3 times, and the other 9 games they haven't given up 105+ points in but most of those games they even held the opposing team to under 100 points. I think the Celtics will continue to play well on defense in their games and they have really been clicking in all of these games. It helps that their team hasn't been injured at all lately so I think they will keep up their momentum and play at a high level on defense to win their games like they have been lately. The pacers have been in some high scoring games lately but they haven't really been playing any defensive teams. All the teams they have seen lately are teams that put up a lot of points so they have had to keep up in a lot of their games. I don't think that is going to be the case here though. The Pacers do not have a lot of talented players left after the trade deadline and their team is very young and inexperienced now for the most part. I think they will struggle to put up points in this game and I think they are going to run into a wall when they see the kind of defense they are up against here. The Celtics are way more talented than the Pacers here and I don't think the Celtics will even have to score a lot of points in this game to win it. I am expecting a good defensive effort from that which will keep this a low scoring game. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 101-89 Celtics. | |||||||
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. | |||||||
02-25-22 | 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 | 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. | |||||||
02-24-22 | 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. | |||||||
02-22-22 | 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. | |||||||
02-17-22 | 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. | |||||||
02-12-22 | 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. | |||||||
02-08-22 | 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. | |||||||
02-07-22 | 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. | |||||||
02-06-22 | 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. | |||||||
02-05-22 | 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 | 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. | |||||||
02-04-22 | 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. | |||||||

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. | |||||||
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. | |||||||
01-29-22 | Kings v. 76ers UNDER 220.5 | 101-103 | Win | 100 | 15 h 5 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Kings/76ers UNDER. I am on the under in the Sacramento Kings vs Philadelphia 76ers game on Saturday. The 76ers just went under in their most recent game and I was all over that. I think they can go under again in this game and I expect it to be another blowout win for the 76ers. The 76ers have won 3 games in a row and are on a roll now. They have been winning a lot of their games lately with good defense and their defensive effort is even better when they are playing on their own home court. They played great defense in their previous game, holding the Lakers to just 87 points in that win. I think they are going to continue their great defense into this home game too and I don't think the Kings are going to be able to put up a lot of points on them. The 76ers haven't been putting up a lot of points lately either, they haven't put up 120+ points in 4 games in a row now. The Kings have lost 5 games in a row and they haven't looked good in most of those games. They were putting up a lot of points and keeping their losses close lately but that has died out in their previous 2 games and their offense has really taken a toll. Their 2 most recent games saw them putting up 75 points in 1 game while putting up 104 points and the other but they were blown out by 15+ points in each game. Both of their previous 2 games were on the road and I think their issues on offense are going to continue into this game. The 76ers have been great on defense lately and they will make it more difficult for the Kings to put up a lot of points, mix in their scoring trouble and I don't think the Kings are going to put up a lot of points here or stay competitive in this game. I see this game being a 76ers blowout that they keep low scoring with a good defensive effort. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 101-92 76ers. | |||||||
01-28-22 | Wolves v. Suns OVER 230.5 | Top | 124-134 | Win | 100 | 14 h 52 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Timberwolves/Suns OVER. I am on the over in the Minnesota Timberwolves vs Phoenix Suns game on Friday. The Timberwolves have looked really good lately and they have been putting up a ton of points in their games. They have put up 100+ points in 10 games in a row and 8 of those games they scored 110+ points. They have been putting up a ton of points lately but their defense hasn't looked that good in those games. They have given up 100+ points in 9/10 of their previous 10 games and 7 of those games they gave up 110+ points in. The Timberwolves are pretty much fully healthy for this game and they have played well in their games lately. I think they are going to keep putting up a lot of points in their games and they haven't been losing a lot of their games either so I don't see them changing their approach on defense either. I think this is going to be another game where they don't play any defense and rely on their offense to carry the weight here. The Suns have been on a path of destruction lately and they are the best team in the league at the moment. Their offense has looked great lately and they have been putting up a lot of points in their games too. They have put up 100+ points in 7 games in a row and their defense hasn't been any better giving up 100+ points in 5 of their previous 6 games. The Suns have also been destroying teams and winning their games by large margins of victory. I think there is a good chance that they will pull away by a lot on their home court here but the Timberwolves haven't been bad lately so i think they will offer a good challenge and try to catch up. Both of these teams will push each other's offense to score more points all night and i think this will be a game with very little defense in it from both teams. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 127-114 Suns. | |||||||
01-28-22 | Colgate v. Boston University UNDER 136.5 | 72-76 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 43 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Colgate/Boston UNDER. I am on the under in the Colgate vs Boston University game on Friday. Colgate hasn't been putting up a lot of points in their games lately, they have put up less than 70 points in 2 of their previous 3 games. Their defense has looked really good lately though and I think they are going to continue playing great on defense in this game too. Colgate hasn't given up 60+ points in 4 games in a row and I think they can keep that streak up in this game. They haven't been too good on the road this year and I expect them to continue playing good defense in this game since their offense hasn't really been there in their road games. They have only put up 70+ points in 2 of their previous 8 road games and I don't think anything is going to change here. Boston U has put up 80+ points in 2 games in a row but both of those games were against weak opposing teams and I think Colgate will be tougher to score on since they have been good in conference play this year. Before those 2 games of scoring 80+ points, Boston U had gone 3 games in a row where they didn't even put up 60+ points in any of those games. Boston U has also looked good on defense lately though and I think they will play harder on defense after they realize they aren't going to jump out to a big lead quickly against Colgate like they have in their previous 3 games. I think this game will be more tightly contested and I expect both teams to play a lot of defense here. I like this game to go under. T.M. Prediction: 65-61 Colgate. | |||||||
01-27-22 | Colorado v. Washington OVER 137 | 58-60 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 18 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Colorado/Washington OVER. I am on the over in the Colorado vs Washington game on Thursday. Colorado has been struggling lately but they have also had a tough schedule in their past few games. They have lost 2 of their previous 3 games but those 2 losses were to USC and UCLA who are both top 15 teams in the country and they both have been dominating in their conference play. Colorado kept up with both teams in those games though and their biggest loss was only by 6 points. They also won their most recent game on the road over Oregon who was starting to look a lot better in their games before Colorado knocked them off with an 82-78 road win. I think Colorado can keep up their performance in this road game and they are getting a much easier team to face too. I think Colorado will be able to put up points with ease on Washington but I also think they will be a bit fatigued from their tough schedule lately so I don't expect a big defensive effort from them in this game. Washington has looked much better in their games lately and they had won 3 games in a row before losing their most recent game to Oregon. They were embarrassed on the road in that game against Oregon losing by almost 30 points and only putting up 56 in that game. I think they are going to be angry from that loss and I expect them to play with a lot more heart in this game on their home court and put on a much better performance to make up for that last embarrassment. I think Washington is going to put up points here and really go after Colorado and I think Colorado will try to counter by putting up more points of their own. I think these teams are going to push each other to score all night with very little defense and I expect this game to come down to the wire. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 81-77 Colorado. | |||||||
01-27-22 | Lakers v. 76ers UNDER 218.5 | 87-105 | Win | 100 | 9 h 49 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Lakers/76ers UNDER. I am on the under in the LA Lakers vs Philadelphia 76ers game on Thursday. The Lakers just won their most recent game on the road over the Nets and this game saw the return of Anthony Davis after being out for weeks. Davis didn't contribute a lot of offense in his return but there was a great defensive effort from the team, holding the Nets to less than 100 points. The Lakers haven't been putting up a lot of points lately though, they have put up 110+ points in just 1 of their previous 6 games. I don't see the Lakers fixing their scoring problem over night and I don't think they are going to win this game by outscoring the 76ers on the road here. I think the Lakers will need to play some good defense in this game and I think they will be able to play better on defense with Davis back in their lineup. The Clippers have been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately but I think that is not going to be the case here. The 76ers have put up 115+ points in 3 of their previous 4 games but those 3 games were all against opposing teams with records nowhere near to .500. The only team they played during that time that had a record close to .500 was the Clippers and that was the 1 game they lost by a score of 102-101. Before these 4 games, they actually had 5 games in a row where 1 team didn't put up 100+ points in the game, and 4 of those games were against teams with a record near .500 or higher. The Lakers haven't been having the year that they were hoping for but they are still not a bad team and are in the mix for the playoffs. I think now that Davis is back they will start to make a big push for the playoffs and try to go on a big run while everyone is still healthy. I think the Lakers are going to give the 76ers a good challenge in this game and I expect both teams to play good defense here. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 101-97 Lakers. | |||||||
01-26-22 | Knicks v. Heat UNDER 201 | 96-110 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 12 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Knicks/Heat UNDER. I am on the under in the New York Knicks vs Miami Heat game on Wednesday. The Knicks have been very up and down this year but they look like they are going to go from making the playoffs last year with a higher seed to missing them altogether this year with how they have looked and played in some of thier games lately. They have not been scoring a ton of points in their games lately with 2 of their previous 3 games having them score less than 100 points. In their previous 5 games, they have failed to reach 100 points in 3 of those games but they have been giving a much better defensive effort in some of those games. The most points they had given up to the opposing team during that time was 112 and the rest of their games they did not allow 110+ points from the opposing team. I think the Knicks are still going to have trouble scoring a lot of points here but I think they will try to compensate with a better defensive effort which is something that Tom Thibodeau stresses to his team anyway as he is a very defense oriented coach. Their defense has looked much better lately too so I think they can keep that up here and keep this a low scoring game. The Heat have been putting up points but not a ton of points in a lot of their games, in their previous 5 games the most they have put up in a single game was 113 points. The Heat are also missing some important players from their rotation for this game and I think that is going to slow down their pace and ability to put up a ton of points quicker. I expect this game to have more defense in it from both sides and I think the Knicks are going to continue their scoring troubles until something is fixed on that team because they are not moving in the right direction at the moment. I think this is going to be a low scoring game so I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 95-87 Heat. | |||||||
01-24-22 | Jazz v. Suns OVER 221 | 109-115 | Win | 100 | 10 h 9 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Jazz/Suns OVER. I am on the over in the Utah Jazz vs Phoenix Suns game on Monday. The Jazz just lost a close one against the warriors in their most recent game and that was a very low scoring game that ended 94-92. Both teams battled hard on defense in that game and I think the Jazz are going to be exhausted here after that effort and on a B2B game now. I think their defense is going to suffer in this game and I expect there to be a lot more offense from them here. Bogdanovic was the leading scorer for them and he was the only Jazz player to score 20+ points in that game but I expect him to get a lot more help from his teammates here. The Suns have played 4 games in a row now where both teams put up 100+ points in the game. The Suns themselves have scored 109+ points in 5 games in a row and they are rolling hot right now winning 6 in a row. I think the Suns are going to keep up their hot streak here and put up a ton of points in a game where I think there will be no defense in. The Suns have been playing great lately but they have also been shooting well and they almost shot 50% in their most recent game. I think the Suns are going to put up points on the Jazz and their exhausted defensive effort here and I think the Jazz will have to play from behind and force more points to try and catch up the whole game. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 121-114 Suns. | |||||||
01-21-22 | Bulls v. Bucks OVER 227 | Top | 90-94 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 5 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bulls/Bucks OVER. I like the over in the Chicago Bulls vs Milwaukee Bucks game on Friday. I think this game is going to have a lot more offense than defense in it and I expect both team to put up the points here. The Bulls just ended a 4 game losing skid with a win in their most recent game and I think now that they have bounced back and are back on track they should put up a good fight against the Bucks and give them a challenge all night. They just put up 117 points in their most recent game and they have put up 100+ point in 3 games in a row. The Bulls definitely lean more on their offense when they are on the road and their defense has not looked as good in those games. They have given up 110+ points in 4 road games in a row and they have given up 105+ points to the opposing team in 10 games in a row. The Bulls have been 1 of the better teams in the league this year and I expect them to keep this game close with the Bucks but I don't expect them to that with their defense in this game. I think Milwaukee is going to keep scoring points on them all night and I expect the Bulls to be catching up for most of the game and really focused on their offense and getting the points to tie the game. Even if the Bulls are the team leading all night I don't think they will be able to play well enough on defense to slow down their scoring. The Bucks also just won a game that ended a losing skid for them but they still managed to put up points in those games. They just put up 126 points on their own home floor against the grizzlies who have been surging lately. The Bucks have also put up 110+ points in 3 of their previous 4 games and in 3 home games in a row now. I know the Bulls are missing some important players here but they still have a very good roster and DeRozan has become the heart of this team, as long as he is on the court he gives his team a chance to win. I think the Bulls are still going to play with a lot of heart here and stay in this game but I expect the Bucks to outscore them here and I really don't think there is going to be a ton of defense here. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 127-116 Bucks. | |||||||
01-19-22 | Rider v. Quinnipiac UNDER 143 | Top | 67-73 | Win | 100 | 14 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rider/Quinnipiac UNDER. I am on the under in the Rider vs Quinnipiac game on Wednesday. Rider has not been having a good year and they have been even worse in their road games this year. They have lost 6/7 road games played this year and they haven't been putting up a lot of points in those games either. Rider put up 79 points in their most recent road game, which was also their 1st road win this year, but they lost 3 games in a row on the road before that game and they didn't put up 60+ points in any of those games. They just lost at home in their most recent game and neither team even scored 60 points in that game. I think Rider is going to continue to struggle in road games here and I expect this to be another game where they don't put up a lot of points on the opposing team. Quinnipiac has won 2 games in a row now and they have looked a lot better on their home court this year than on the road. They have won 3 games in a row at home and were able to hold the opposing team to less than 70 points in all of those games but they did not put up 80+ points themselves in any of those games either. I don't expect Quinnipiac to score a ton of points on Rider in this game, Quinnipiac has only put up 80+ points in 2/15 games played this year. Their defense has been better on their home court lately and I'm expecting them to really blow out Rider in this game. They just played each other less than 1 week ago and Quinnipiac won that game on the road 77-70. I think Quinnipiac is going to score around the same amount in this game but I expect them to be better on defense and give up less points to Rider who has been struggling to score in road games lately. I expect this to be a lopsided game and I don't think Rider is going to be able to put up enough points to even make this game close to the total. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 67-53 Quinnipiac. | |||||||
01-18-22 | Canisius v. St. Peter's UNDER 132.5 | 57-65 | Win | 100 | 8 h 16 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Canisius/Saint Peter's UNDER. I am on the under in the Canisius vs Saint Peter's game on Tuesday. Canisius have not looked good this year, they are 5-11 and have lost all 8 of their road games played this year. They are not a high scoring team on the road either and I don't expect them to score a lot of points in this game. They just played a road game where they put up 75 points but that 1 game is the exception and not the rule for them in road games this year. They have only put up 70+ points in 3 road games this year and the rest of them they scored less than 70. They have failed to even put up 60 points in 2 of their previous 3 games though. Canisius hasn't looked good on the road this year and have played in a lot of road games where they haven't really scored a lot. I don't expect that to change in this game against Saint Peter's who also doesn't score a lot in their games. Saint Peter's hasn't played in a lot of games this year with a 5-6 record and they haven't been the best at home either with a 3-2 record in home games this year. They have also put up less than 70 points in 3 games in a row and they just played a game that they won on the road without putting up 60+ points in it. Saint Peter's has had some really good defense in their games lately and I don't expect Canisius to score a lot on them here, especially with the scoring trouble they have had lately. Saint Peter's has put up 70+ point in only 1 game in their previous 7 and they have also given up 70+ points to 1 opposing team in their previous 7 games. Saint Peter's doesn't score a lot in their games and I don't expect them to do so here. I expect them to continue to play defense well and win the game with that. Canisius doesn't score a lot on the road and I think they are going to have a tough time putting up points on this defense. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 59-51 Saint Peter's. | |||||||
01-17-22 | Blazers v. Magic OVER 215.5 | 98-88 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 10 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Trail Blazers/Magic OVER. I am on the over in the Portland Trail Blazers vs Orlando Magic game on Monday. Portland just lost their best player Damian Lillard but they have still looked good in their games without him lately winning 3 games in their previous 4. They have scored 100+ points in 10 games in a row and I expect them to do the same in this game. The Magic don't really play any defense in their games either so I expect the Trail Blazers to keep up their run and put up a lot of points on the Magic here. The Blazers don't play great defense themselves either though. They have given up 105+ points in 3 games in a row and have given up 100+ points in every single game over their previous 20 games except for 1. The Blazers are used to high scoring games though, they have had both teams put up 100+ points in 9/10 games of their L10. The Magic have not been a high scoring team really but lately they have been putting up a lot of points in their games. They have put up 100+ points in 3 of their previous 4 games. They have also given up 100+ points in 4 games in a row and their defense has been terrible all year. The Magic are still missing key players here and I think that is going to be a factor to their defense. The Magic don't play defense well with their starters in so I expect them to be even worse on defense without them in this game. The Trail Blazers are also missing key players so I think they aren't going to play good defense either. I think both of these teams aren't going to defend well enough and I think both are just going to push each other to put up more points as the game goes on. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 117-112 Trail Blazers. | |||||||
01-14-22 | Davidson v. Richmond OVER 143 | Top | 87-84 | Win | 100 | 16 h 6 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Davidson/Richmond OVER. I am on the over in the Davidson vs Richmond game on Friday. Davidson has won 12 games in a row and they have put up 70+ points in all of those games. Their 2 losses this year were the only games that they didn't put up 70+ points in but those 2 losses were right at the beginning of the year and they have been scoring a ton ever since they went on their huge run. They have been stringing a lot of wins together lately but they haven't been getting those wins by playing good defense and I think this is going to be another game where they focus on their offense and try to outscore Richmond on the road here. Davidson has given up 65+ points in 3 games in a row and all of those games were in conference play. Their defense has been a lot worse on the road though and I think that is going to continue here. They have won all 3 of their road games this year but they have given up 69+ in all of those games, giving up 73+ points in their 2 most recent road games. I don't think Richmond is going to get pushed over by them though and I expect them to put up a fight here since they have the extra motivation of being the team that can end Davidson's long win streak. Richmond is also at home here where they have played much better this year and they just won their most recent game at home while putting up 80 points. That was their 1st win in conference play this year and now that they have the taste of winning in their mouths again, I expect a good performance from them on their home court. I think Davidson is going to focus on shooting and scoring in this game and I think it is going to leave plenty of opportunity for Richmond to keep up and even take the lead. These teams are going to be chasing each other all night with their shooting so I like the over in this game. T.M. Selection: 81-78 Richmond. | |||||||
01-10-22 | 76ers v. Rockets UNDER 225.5 | 111-91 | Win | 100 | 15 h 8 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: 76ers/Rockets UNDER. I am on the under in the Philadelphia 76ers vs Houston Rockets game on Monday. The 76ers have been rolling lately winning 6 games in a row. I think they are going to blow the Rockets out here and keep them from scoring a lot with some good defense. The 76ers have performed well on the road this year and they have a winning 14-8 record in those games. They have won 5 games in a row on the road and they haven't given up 110+ points to any of the opposing teams in those games. The 76ers have only scored 120+ points in 1 game of their previous 14 and that game was against the Rockets about a week ago but the 76ers were at home in that game. I don't think they are going to score as much on the road and I still expect the Rockets to put more resistance at home since they have had a majority of their wins happen on their home court this year. The Rockets have been terrible this year, they have won 1/11 games over the past few weeks and they have been giving up a lot of points lately. They have given up 130+ points in 3 of their previous 4 games and lost all of them. The only game they won during that time was a game where they didn't allow either team to get to 120 points. I expect the Rockets to play much better on defense here at home since they have been losing a lot and it is mainly due to their lack of defense. I think they will try to play a lot better and put up more resistance in this game to prevent the 76ers from repeating what they did a week ago. I also think the 76ers aren't going to put up a lot of points on the road and will try to play better on defense to get some turnovers and win this game like that. I don't expect a ton of scoring in this game, I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 114-94 76ers. | |||||||
01-10-22 | Army v. Colgate OVER 152.5 | 57-76 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 59 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Colgate/Army OVER. I am on the over in the Army vs Colgate game on Monday. Army has won 3 games in a row and their offense has looked good in those games putting up a lot of points. Army has put up 75+ points in 4 games in a row now. Their defense has not looked as good as their offense has though. They gave up 55 points in their most recent game but had given up 70+ points in 4 games in a row right before that. They had even given up 89+ points in 3 of those 4 games. Army has not looked good on the road this year and I think they will continue to give up a lot of points in this game. Colgate has lost 5 games in a row and their defense hasn't looked in any of those games. They have also given up 75+ points in 4 games in a row but their offense looked a lot better in their most recent game. They scored 81 points in that game against Lehigh but gave up 85 points to them. Army just played in Lehigh in their most recent game and they won while putting up 77 points in that game. Army hasn't looked good on the road this year but I think they will still be able to put up a lot of points on Colgate here. Colgate also played Lehigh in their most recent game and they gave up 85 points to them so I expect Army to be able to score on them even with this being a road game. Colgate also put up 81 points on Lehigh in that game, Army only gave up 55 points to Lehigh but they were at home in that game and Colgate was on the road for their game. I think Army won't play defense as well on the road and I'm expecting Colgate to score a lot easier on their home court here. Neither of these teams play defense well so I expect this game to have a lot of shooting and a lot of scoring from both sides. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 89-82 Colgate. | |||||||
01-09-22 | Spurs v. Nets OVER 230.5 | 119-121 | Win | 100 | 7 h 24 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Spurs/Nets OVER. I am on the over in the San Antonio Spurs vs Brooklyn Nets game on Sunday. I think this is going to be a high scoring game since neither of these teams play defense well. The Spurs have played in 7 of their previous 8 games where both teams scored 100+ points in the game. The Spurs have put up 99+ points in 20 games in a row, 19 of those games they scored 100+ points, and they have still been losing a lot of those games which means that they have been giving up even more points than they are scoring. This has been a common theme for them all year and part of the reason why they have looked so bad, no one plays defense well on the team and instead they rely on their shooting to win games and try to make comebacks when they are down. I don't think anything is going to change for them here when they are playing a team that has guys like Kevin Durant and James Harden who are both really tough to defend. I think this is going to be another game where the Spurs can't defend the Nets and they are going to try to keep up by shooting a lot and putting up enough points to match the Nets. The Nets have also been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately too. The Nets have seen 1 team score 118+ points in 4 games in a row. The Nets have not been defending well in their games either and they have had both teams score 100+ points in 7 games in a row. The Nets have also given up 100+ points themselves in 13 games in a row. I think this will be a game where neither team plays a lot of defense and I'm expecting a lot of shooting in this game. I think the Nets will take the lead early because the Spurs won't be able to defend them well and that will leave the Spurs chasing the whole game by putting up more and more points to match. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 129-117 Nets. | |||||||
01-08-22 | Knicks v. Celtics UNDER 208 | 75-99 | Win | 100 | 14 h 51 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Knicks/Celtics UNDER. I am on the under in the New York Knicks vs Boston Celtics game on Saturday. The Knicks have been involved in a lot of low scoring games lately. They have had 5 of their previous 7 games have less than 200 points total in them and they have played in the same amount of games in their previous 7 where either 1 or both teams don't even put up 100 points in the game. The Knicks have looked a lot better on defense lately and that has been a key focus of their coach ever since joining the team. The Knicks were known for their great defensive efforts in their games last year and that is what got them to the playoffs at all. Now that their defense looks a lot better and is not giving up as many points in their games, I expect them to continue to play that way since it has been helping them win a lot more games as of late. The Celtics have also been involved in some low scoring games in their previous 2 and their defense has looked good in their games lately too. The Celtics just lost in their most recent game against the Knicks in New York and they had a big lead in that game but blew it. They were winning by 20+ points in that game and they let the Knicks come back and win that game late. I think they are going to tighten up on their defense in this game and play a much tighter game in general after blowing a lead like that. I think they will be able to play their defense and their game in general much better on their home court and I think they will try to avoid a repeat of the other night at all cost. I think both teams are going to play some good defense in this game so I like this game to go under. T.M. Prediction: 97-92 Celtics. | |||||||
01-07-22 | Xavier v. Butler OVER 130.5 | 87-72 | Win | 100 | 15 h 53 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Butler/Xavier OVER. I am on the over in the Butler vs Xavier game on Friday. Butler is not a very high scoring team in their games lately but they are still averaging 60+ points each game over the year. Their defense has been a lot worse than their offense has been though. Butler has been giving 70+ points in 2 of their previous 3 games and both of those teams that they gave up 70+ points to are ranked teams. Xavier is also a ranked team but their offense has looked much better in their games this year. Xavier has been averaging 75+ points each game over the year and they have put up a lot of points in their games lately. They just played in a game that they lost to Villanova and only put up 58 points but they had won 4 games in a row before that putting up 80+ points in all of those games and they had won 6 in a row putting up 70+ points in every game. I think Xavier is going to score a lot of points here, they will be looking to bounce back from that Villanova loss and Butler hasn't looked great this year so I expect Xavier to come out strong and put up a lot of points from the start. Butler doesn't have a terrible defense but I think Xavier's offense is too good for them to stop and I think they will be overwhelmed by Xavier. Butler will have to respond in this game with their own offense just to keep up and I think that will lead to this game going over. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 82-66 Xavier. | |||||||
01-04-22 | Grizzlies v. Cavs OVER 217.5 | 110-106 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 19 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Grizzlies/Cavaliers OVER. I am on the over in the Memphis Grizzlies vs Cleveland Cavaliers game on Tuesday. The Grizzlies have looked great in their games lately and they have been putting up a lot of points. They have put up 110+ points in 4 of their previous 5 games, including their 2 most recent games where they scored 118 points in both. Their offense has been performing so well in their games lately that their defense has been left to rot a bit. They have given up 100+ points to the opposing team in 10 games in a row now. The Grizzlies just won a big game against the Nets in Brooklyn 118-104 and I think that they are going to put up a ton of points in this game too. The Cavaliers are missing some starters that will play a role in their defensive play and I think that this game is going to turn into a shootout as the Cavs try to match the shooting and scoring from the Grizzlies in this game. The Cavaliers have also been having a good season though and they have some good players on their team still that can shoot the ball and put up points. The Cavaliers have been very consistent on offense this year and have put up 100+ points in 19 of their previous 20 games. They have even had some really high scoring games lately, putting up 144 points in 1 of their games from their previous 5. I don't think the Cavaliers will be able to slow down the Grizzlies in this game with their defense so the only way they will be able to keep up is to match their scoring and both of these teams can shoot well and put up the points. I am expecting a high scoring game here with not a lot of defense so I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 119-113 Grizzlies. | |||||||
01-04-22 | Kentucky v. LSU OVER 139.5 | 60-65 | Loss | -109 | 13 h 9 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Kentucky/LSU OVER. I am on the over in the Kentucky vs LSU game on Tuesday. Kentucky has looked great in their games lately and they have been putting up a lot of points in their games too. Kentucky has put up 80+ points in 4 games in a row now and they have put up 90+ points in 3 of those games. Their defense has been great this year too, they have only given up 70+ points in 1 game this year and that game was against Duke, another ranked team. That was really the only ranked team they have faced this year and now they take on a ranked LSU team that only has 1 loss all year. I think that Kentucky is going to struggle to play defense as well as they have been playing all year and I expect LSU to put up some points in this game just like Kentucky. LSU has also had some high scoring games lately, putting up 85+ points in 2 of their previous 4 games. They just lost their most recent game to Auburn, another ranked team, and they gave up 70 points in that game while only putting up 55 points themselves. That was their 1st road game of the year and I expect them to play much better on their home court in this game. I think LSU is going to be upset about that loss since it was their 1st loss of the season and I'm expecting a much better effort on offense in this game as they try to bounce back. I think this is going to be a close game that is high scoring since both of these teams have a good offense and like to shoot a lot. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 80-78 LSU. | |||||||
01-03-22 | Washington v. Arizona OVER 151 | 79-95 | Win | 100 | 14 h 12 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Washington/Arizona OVER. I am on the over in the Washington vs Arizona game on Monday. Washington just played a game where they only scored 52 points but in every other game this year they have put up 60+ points. I think they will probably put up around that many points in this game like they have all year but their defense has not looked great in their games this year and I think Arizona will be able to put up a ton of points on them in this game and Washington will be force to go on the offensive more and put up points of their own. Arizona is a much better team than Washington is and they have already had a few games where they put up 100+ points. Their defense isn't the greatest though so I think Washington will be able to score some points here too. Arizona has given up 60+ points in 6 games in a row but they have given up 75+ point in 3 of their 4 previous games. Arizona has actually put up 70+ points in every game this year and they have put up 80+ points in every single game this year except for 1. Arizona is a very strong offensive team that normally puts up 80+ or 90+ points every night but that is because their defense is not that great and they give up around 60+ and 70+ points to opposing teams in every game. Washington is probably not good enough to keep this game close but they will be able to put up points on Arizona and I think Arizona is going to try to score a lot to make up for that. I think this should be a high scoring game so I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 94-69 Arizona. | |||||||
12-29-21 | Hawks v. Bulls OVER 221.5 | Top | 117-131 | Win | 100 | 10 h 27 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bulls/Hawks OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Chicago averages 110.1 points per game. It's coming off a 130-118 win at Atlanta just two nights ago. Atlanta averages 110.1 PPG as well. The Hawks however have seen the total fly 'over' the number in 7 of their last 10 in trying to revenge a loss against an opponent in which it conceded 130 or more points in. These two teams just played to an extremely high-scoring affair and I don't predict that the shift in venue will have any effect on their pace tonight. With the Hawks out for revenge, everything points to this one eclipsing the posted number as the game comes down the stretch! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
12-27-21 | Brown v. Syracuse UNDER 143.5 | 62-93 | Loss | -109 | 12 h 6 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Brown/Syracuse UNDER. I am on the under in the Brown vs Syracuse game on Monday. Brown is not a very high scoring team this year, they have scored 75+ points in 2 of their previous 9 games. Most of those games though they are barely putting up 70+ points and sometimes they aren't even getting over 60 points. Their defense has looked decent in their games too. They have not let an opposing team score more than 70 points on them in 7 games in a row. Brown does not have a very good shot at winning this game and I think they know that so I'm expecting them to play good defense here to try and stop Syracuse from pulling away in this game. Syracuse hasn't been a high scoring team this year either and they don't really have games in the 80's and 90's for points often. They haven't put up more than 75 points in 3 games in a row now. They have also given up less than 70 points in 2 of their previous 3 games. Syracuse has played some tougher teams this year already, they have had games where they give up a ton of points but they are playing a team that they are a lot better than so I don't see that happening here. Syracuse is going to control this game and I don't think they are going to have to score a lot to win this game. This should not be a game that get's into the 80's or higher for points, there will probably even be only 1 team that reaches 70 points if any do at all. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 67-54 Syracuse. | |||||||
12-25-21 | Hawks v. Knicks UNDER 207.5 | 87-101 | Win | 100 | 2 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Hawks/Knicks UNDER. I am on the under in the Atlanta Hawks vs New York Knicks game on Saturday. The Hawks haven't been having a great year this year with a losing record and they have been healthy for a lot of their games too. They have not put up 100+ points in their 2 most recent games and there has been 1 team that hasn't reached 100+ points in 3 of their previous 4 games. The Hawks have already been struggling this year and now they will be hindered even more here with a lot of their starters out for this game due to covid-19. The Hawks will not have a very strong team out on the court today and I expect them not to score as many points because of that. The Knicks have looked better in their games lately and I think they should be able to stop the Hawks with their defense in this game. The Knicks are also missing a few players for this game too. They will not be missing as many players as the Hawks are though and the Knicks still have a few of their starters healthy for this game. I think that the Knicks will be able to control the pace in this game and I expect them to pull away on a much weaker team here in the current situation and blow the Hawks out without letting them score a lot. The Knicks have not been that great at shooting in a lot of their games though and if they start missing their 3's a lot which they have been then they are not going to score a lot either. I don't think the Knicks are going to need to score a ton here to win this game so I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 99-87 Knicks. | |||||||
12-15-21 | Hawks v. Magic UNDER 224.5 | 111-99 | Win | 100 | 12 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Hawks/Magic UNDER. I am on the under in the Atlanta Hawks vs Orlando Magic game on Wednesday. The Hawks have a few injuries to their starters in this game. Both Hunter and Bogdanovic are going to miss this game and they have already missed a few of their games. The Hawks have lost 4 of their previous 5 games and have not looked that great in their games lately. They are also not very good in their road games and I think they are going to struggle in this game with their missing players. The Magic are also missing quite a few players in this game and that is going to make their lineup a lot weaker than it already usually is. I think that the Magic are not going to be able to keep with their scoring and there is a good chance that the Hawks will pull away in this game. The Magic are not a high scoring team with all of their starters in the lineup and they have stayed under 100 points in most of their games lately. Now they have a weakened starting lineup and I don't think they will be able to do much here to score on the Hawks. I also don't think the Hawks are going to score a lot with their missing players and they probably will have such a big lead that they won't need to score a lot to win this game comfortably. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 107-92 Hawks. | |||||||
12-14-21 | Suns v. Blazers UNDER 217.5 | 111-107 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 43 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Suns/Trail Blazers UNDER. I am on the under in the Phoenix Suns vs Portland Trail Blazers game on Tuesday. The Suns haven't been putting up a lot of points in their games lately. Their offense has really suffered without Booker in the game. They haven't put up 115+ points in any of their games since he went out against the Warriors a few weeks ago. I think their offense is still going to struggle to explode without him in this game since the load will have to be carried by the aging Chris Paul. Their defense has looked good though and that is how they've been winning their games. The Suns have given up 110+ points to their opposing team just 2 times in their previous 8 games. Also, a majority of their previous 6 games and had 1 team stay under 100 points scored in the game. The Trail Blazers looked a bit better in their most recent game with Lillard back on the court for them but they are still missing McCollum and he is a major part of their offense just like Lillard. The Trail Blazers play very well when both of those guys are playing and playing well but usually with only 1 of them in the lineup, the Trail Blazers struggle to score a lot and win games. I think that the Suns are already going to dictate the pace of this game with a more defensive effort and I expect the Trail Blazers to follow suit with the defensive strategy knowing that their offense is not as strong still without McCollum. I don't think Lillard can do enough by himself to drive this score up and I like the way the Suns have been playing defense lately. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 99-94 Suns. | |||||||
12-13-21 | Rockets v. Hawks UNDER 227 | 132-126 | Loss | -120 | 14 h 32 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Rockets/Hawks UNDER. I am on the under in the Houston Rockets vs Atlanta Hawks game on Monday. The Rockets have lost 2 games in a row after going on a 7 game win streak but this is not a good team this year and they only have 8 wins all year. I think that the Rockets are a bit burnt out from stringing all of those wins together, especially since their last win was over the Nets with Harden returning to town. The Rockets are also bad on the road this year, they just won 7 games in a row but most of them were at home because they only have 1 win in 8 road games this year. They have only put up 110+ points in 3 of their road games this year and I think that they are going to struggle to put up points on the Hawks here. The Hawks are a very good home team and they have lost quite a few games lately so I think they will be looking for an easy bounce back game. The Hawks haven't looked great on offense either in their games lately. They are missing some of their starters in this game and lately they haven't been scoring a lot at home, but they have been playing better defense there. The Hawks have only scored 110+ points in 1 of their previous 4 games and they failed to reach 100 points in 2 of those games. They didn't let the opposing team score 100+ points in 2 of those games at home too. I think this is going to be a game that the Hawks win in a blowout and I don't think that the Rockets are even going to reach 100 points in this game. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 112-92 Hawks. | |||||||
12-11-21 | LSU v. Georgia Tech OVER 139 | 69-53 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 21 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: LSU/Georgia Tech OVER. I am on the over in the LSU vs Georgia Tech game on Saturday. LSU has looked great this year and they haven't lost a game yet. Their offense has looked really good in their games lately. They have only scored a bit over 65 points in 2 of their 3 most recent games but they have scored 74+ points in every other game this year. They are also destroying teams that they play and putting up a ton of points in the process. They have won all 8 games this year except for 1 by 10+ points and they have scored 80+ points in most of their games this year. Georgia Tech has not looked as good as LSU this year and they haven't been scoring as much as them either lately. Georgia Tech has still put up 60+ points in every game this year and they have even put up 70+ points in half of their games. Georgia Tech is not as bad as some of these other teams that LSU has faced this year so I doubt that they are going to get blown out by 30+ points like LSU has done in some of their games. I think Georgia Tech is going to put up some points here to keep up but I also think that LSU has a much better offense and will likely put up a lot more points than them still. I think Georgia Tech will score 60+ points in this game and maybe even get over 70. I also think that LSU is going to continue their great play here and put up 80+ points in this game. I think there will be a lot of points in this game with the offense from these 2 teams. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 86-72 LSU. | |||||||
12-09-21 | Jazz v. 76ers OVER 217.5 | 118-96 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 17 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Jazz/76ers OVER. I am on the over in the Utah Jazz vs Philadelphia 76ers game on Thursday. The Jazz have looked good in their games lately and they have been putting up a ton of points in those games. The Jazz have put up 130+ points in 2 of their previous 3 games and they have put up 125+ points in 4 of their 5 previous games, still scoring 100+ points in all of those games. The Jazz are healthy for this game and will have all of their key pieces in the lineup. The Jazz have some great scorers in Donovan Mitchell and Mike Conley so they are going to put up a lot of points to beat a team like the 76ers, and even if they miss their shots they still score a lot because of Rudy Gobert under the net gobbling up all the rebounds. The 76ers have also been healthy for the last week and with all of their starters back from injuries and illnesses all playing with each other on the court again, they have looked much better in their games lately. Their 2 most recent games they looked really good winning both and putting up 110+ points in both games, even getting up to 127 in 1 of those. They have also let their defense go a bit in those games and have given up 100+ points in both, even giving up 124 in 1 of those. The 76ers know they have a good team in front of them with some big bodies and they will need to score points here to win this game. I think this is going to be a faster paced game with a lot of points and very little defense. I like this game to go over. T.M. Prediction: 121-117 Jazz. | |||||||
12-07-21 | Nets v. Mavs OVER 215.5 | 102-99 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 56 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Nets/Mavericks OVER. I am on the over in the Brooklyn Nets vs Dallas Mavericks game on Tuesday. The Nets are trying to preserve their 1st place spot in the East with another win here so I think they are going to come out flying in this game. The Nets have definitely found their scoring lately and they have put up 100+ points in 8 games in a row. They have been scoring a lot more on the road lately though, they have put up 115+ points in 5 games in a row on the road and they have done that in every road game this year except for 2. The Mavericks are on a really bad run at the moment and have lost 4/5 games but I expect them to give a better effort in this game. The Mavericks have been missing some key players but they will be getting Porzingis back in this game and I expect him to help out their offense as it needs a lot of help. I expect him to take the game into his hands for his team and put up a lot of points on a team that they know is going to score on them. Luka Doncic is also questionable but he sat out their previous game and with the way his team has been losing, I expect him to be out there too and putting up baskets for his team. I think the Nets are going to pour it on in this game either way and I think that the Mavericks are going to have to score a lot just to keep up and stay in this game with a chance. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 127-117 Nets. |
