Indiana at Cleveland 6:10 ET Pacers (+) over Cavaliers- The surprising Cavaliers are facing their first tough stretch as they have dropped their last three after reaching a season high 7-games over .500 their best standing since LeBron left. Indiana is also on a three game slide and are off a 108-106 buzzer beating loss to Chicago Friday night but are happy to be in Cleveland. The Pacers have won the last five meetings SU and are 23-10-3 ATS in the last 36 meetings and 14-5 ATS in their last 19 games as underdogs. Take INDIANA! |

01-01-22 | Warriors v. Jazz -4.5 | Top | 123-116 | Loss | -115 | 11 h 3 m | Show |
Golden State at Utah 9:10 ET Jazz (-) over Warriors- I feel like I'm going to the dentist each time I play against Golden State because I'm in fear that I will get 'drilled' by the best shooter I have ever seen and that of course is Steph Curry. I mean really how can you play against him...I know, get his teammates riled about some obscure issue and Draymond Green a great player but a rabble rouser and has his mates concerned with the rescheduling of postponed games. Meanwhile, Utah has won six straight and aims to continue their fine play against the warriors going 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings. Take UTAH! |

01-01-22 | Clippers v. Nets -12 | 120-116 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 24 m | Show | |
L.A. Clippers at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Nets (-) over Clippers- Despite having the best record in the Eastern Conference Brooklyn's play by most accounts have been inconsistent not that with all the traffic and drama surrounding their Diva's actions. But, their no questioning their talent just their motivation at times and their fragile egos. The Clippers are a mess as once again start players have taken to lay-back LA genre and now to New York City where they eat Californian's for lunch and the Nets will chow down on the Clippers here. Over the past two weeks, almost the entire Nets roster entered the protocol, forcing the team to scramble to fill roster spots and resulting in three postponements. One of the hardest-hit teams the Brooklyn Nets and will be at relatively full strength Saturday night. Take BROOKLYN! |
|||||||
01-01-22 | Bulls v. Wizards +2 | 120-119 | Win | 100 | 9 h 0 m | Show | |
Chicago at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over Bulls- Both of these clubs have been dealing with COVID issues as the Wizards welcome the return of Bradley Beal form protocol. Chicago despite their issues (Lonzo Ball is out) have won six straight games while Washington is off a win at Cleveland. The Bulls have been point spread wonders and are 20-7 ATS in their last 27 games as favorites 8-1 ATS in their last nine trips to DC but, they hate Saturday's going 14-29 ATS while the Wiz are 5-1 ATS on Saturday's. Take WASHINGTON! |

12-31-21 | Hawks +1 v. Cavs | Top | 121-118 | Win | 100 | 9 h 19 m | Show |
Atlanta at Cleveland 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Cavaliers- This 'price' sticks out like I just don't know what but it drew my attention. Here is Cleveland is the best point spread team in the NBA and the Hawks are racked with COVID have lost three straight and 10-of14 and this game is a virtual pick-em. It doesn't make sense to me that the Cavaliers should be such short favorites at home against a sick team that is struggling and is 0-5 ATS in their last five trips to the Erie based city of Rock and Roll. The Cavs lost Ricky Rubio for the season with an injured ACL and fall here. Take ATLANTA! |
|||||||
12-31-21 | Bulls v. Pacers +4.5 | 108-106 | Win | 100 | 5 h 16 m | Show | |
Chicago at Indiana 3:00 ET Pacers (+) over Bulls- It just seems to get better a s the season rolls along with Chicago as they have just won their fifth straight game shooting 62% against Atlanta Wednesday night. Indiana on the other side has dropped their last tow and 3-of-4 and will be without Malcolm Brogdon and three other in COVID protocol along with Bulls coach Billy Donovan. These two have split a pair of meetings this season but the Bulls are just 5-11 ATS in the last 16 meetings including 3-7 ATS in Indiana. Take the PACERS! |

12-31-21 | Suns v. Celtics +4.5 | Top | 108-123 | Win | 100 | 4 h 37 m | Show |
Phoenix at Boston 1:00 ET Celtics (+) over Suns- The struggling Celtics have lost three in-a-row and eight of its last 11 games and are off one of the worst shooting nights in the season losing at home to Oklahoma City 115-97. Boston may be a bit short handed here as Jason Tatum is expecting to come of COVID protocol list and Marcus Smart will be ready. Phoenix has had their way ATS in Boston because for the most part previously the Suns were bad and the Celts good. Boston is 22-9-1 ATS in their last 32 games as home underdogs. Take BOSTON |
|||||||
12-30-21 | 76ers +5 v. Nets | Top | 110-102 | Win | 100 | 10 h 6 m | Show |
Philadelphia at Brooklyn 7:00 ET 76ers (+) over Nets- The Nets welcome the return of Kyrie 'Flat World' Irving and at this time any kind of warm body will do as Brooklyn has had three games postponed and have five players coming out of COVID protocol. Irving will be joining James Harden who returned last week to action. 76ers are 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven games as road underdogs and the Nets are 1-7 ATS in their last eight home games and 0-7 ATS as home Favorites. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

12-29-21 | Mavs v. Kings +2.5 | Top | 94-95 | Win | 100 | 12 h 31 m | Show |
Dallas at Sacramento 10:30 ET Kings (+) over Mavericks- A pair of struggling clubs both of rare wins go at it in Sacramento where the Kings will host Dallas who are off a win at Portland but had lost four of their previous five. The Kings ended their own three game slide with a 117-11 home win over the Thunder last night. The Mavericks won the first meeting in Texas 105-99 on October 31 but the Kings swept the series last year including a pair of wins at home. Take SACRAMENTO! |

Memphis at Sacramento 6:00 ET Kings (+) over Grizzlies- Both teams off losses as Memphis has dropped their last three including a 113-104 at Golden State Wednesday while Sacramento has dropped their last two including a 108-89 home loss to the Clippers on Tuesday. Stumbling, the Grizzlies are 1-4 ATS in last five as favorites and Kings are not only 23-5 ATS playing with three days rest and 5-2 ATS after a double-digit loss. Take SACRAMENTO! |

12-25-21 | Nets v. Lakers +1 | 122-115 | Loss | -107 | 29 h 48 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at L.A. Lakers 8:00 ET Lakers over Nets- As I stated before their blowout loss 138-110 to San Antonio the Lakers are a mess and to me it all revolves around the acquisition of Russell Westbrook who commits turnovers at an incredible rate. Los Angeles has lost four straight and ranked 27th on defense as Westbrook in attempts to make steals leaves the basket unguarded. Brooklyn is another banded up crew that is playing a number of people that shouldn't even be in the league. But, this night I expect LeBron James to be something special as he raises to the occasion. Take the LAKERS! |
|||||||
12-25-21 | Warriors v. Suns -5.5 | Top | 116-107 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 49 m | Show |
Golden State at Phoenix 5:00 ET Suns(-) over Warriors- Arguably the two best teams in the league square off here as Golden State enters Phoenix as only a half game separates the two. The Warriors are 10-4 SU on the road but juts 7-6-1 ATS while the Suns are 15-2 SU at home and 9-8 ATS. This 'number' seems a bit strong and the Warriors look inviting with the points, but they are 5-12 ATS in their last 17 games as underdogs. The surprise stat is not that Golden State is No. 4 on offense but No. 1 on defense allowing just 101 PPG. Suns 5-2 ATS in their last seven games at home. Take PHOENIX! |
|||||||
12-25-21 | Celtics +5.5 v. Bucks | 113-117 | Win | 100 | 23 h 17 m | Show | |
Boston at Milwaukee 2:30 ET Celtics (+) over Bucks- Neither of these clubs have found their way as of yet and both have been affected by injuries and COVID as they enter their Christmas Day encounter. With the return of Jalen Brown the Celtics are 3-1-1 ATS in their last five and seem to be meshing better than in the early season. Milwaukee has been inconsistent for the most part this season and is 2-6 ATS after a SU win and struggle against the Celtics as Boston is 13-6 ATS in their last 19 trips to Milwaukee. Take BOSTON! |
|||||||
12-25-21 | Hawks +6.5 v. Knicks | 87-101 | Loss | -101 | 21 h 47 m | Show | |
Atlanta at New York 12:00 ET Hawks (+) over Knicks- Kemba Walker get his second start and scores 44 points...Oh my, nut the Knicks still lost. I'm sure the return of Toppin scares me but this team is a mess (not as bad as the Lakers but floundering away. Hawks flying high after win over 76ers and ole 'Mo' will carry him here. Take ATLANTA! |

12-23-21 | Spurs +1.5 v. Lakers | 138-110 | Win | 100 | 8 h 49 m | Show | |
San Antonio at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET Spurs (+) over Lakers- The Lakers are a mess, such a mess that even LeBron James can't make it right. They can point to the injuries and covid and whatever reason they want about why they can't put it together and the answer is so easy but no one will say it. In a word or name Russell Westbrook! He's a one man 'team' killer...Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
12-23-21 | Hornets +2.5 v. Nuggets | 115-107 | Win | 100 | 12 h 13 m | Show | |
Charlotte at Denver 9:00 ET Hornets (+) over Nuggets- This is the sixth and final game of a game road trip for the Hornets and they are 1-4 needing a win to return to .500. Denver (15-15) is having covid issues and injuries have depleted their firepower as their offense has dropped to 21st in the league whole Charlotte is No. 2 in scoring averaging 115 PPG as they are hitting 38% of their 3-point attempts. The Hornets are 6-1 ATS after a SU loss and 12-5 ATS as underdogs while the Nuggets are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games. Take CHARLOTTE! |

12-23-21 | Wizards +1 v. Knicks | 124-117 | Win | 100 | 4 h 24 m | Show | |
Washington at New York 7:30 ET Wizards (+) over Knicks- Both these clubs are off snapping losing streaks as the nicks stopped at five straight losses with a win at MSG over the Pistons while Washington ended a four-game losing streak with a win over Utah on Saturday. New York is having all kinds of chemistry troubles and COVID has put seven players on its list the past week and Derrick Rose down with an ACL. Knicks swept all three game last season but it's a new year. Take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
12-22-21 | Cavs v. Celtics -5.5 | 101-111 | Win | 100 | 9 h 23 m | Show | |
Cleveland at Boston 7:30 ET Celtics (-) over Cavaliers- These two have already split a pair of games both of which were played in Cleveland and the Celtics got the money in both encounters. That in itself is amazing as the Cavaliers are 24-7 ATS on the season and they have won 13 straight games against the 'number.' Yep that's right! So here is Boston who has lost 4-of-6 a strong favorite over the No. 2 defensive team in the league allowing just 101.1 PPG. But, the Cavs who are 10-1 ATS on the road in their last 11 away games are just 1-4 ATS in Boston while the Celtics are 3-1-1 ATS against teams with winning records. The Cavs last game was postponed on Sunday as they had seven players listed on the COVID protocol list and that is most likely by the Celts are favored the way they are. Take BOSTON! |
|||||||
12-21-21 | Pacers -2.5 v. Heat | 96-125 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 56 m | Show | |
Indiana at Miami 7:30 ET Pacers (+) over Heat- Miami under coach Eric Spoelstra have always played tough but with so many player entering COVID protocol even the best coached teams struggle to maintain their high quality of play and the Heat are most predominate among those clubs. They will be without Butler, Adebayo, Herro, Martin, Morris and Oladipo who all missed Sunday's loss to lowly Detroit. When the regulars have been available in recent seasons the Pacers went 7-3 ATS in Miami as underdogs. The difference here is that the Pacers are favored where they are 0-6 ATS on the road. Still, the protocol is the clue. Take INDIANA! |
|||||||
12-19-21 | Lakers +6.5 v. Bulls | 110-115 | Win | 100 | 6 h 19 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at Chicago 8:00 ET Lakers (+) over Bulls- Los Angeles may be with Anthony Davis for awhile but the Bulls will be without seven players and the Lakers five including coach Frank Vogel. One of the key components for Chicago and their success this season is the play of Zach LaVine and he will be sidelined for the Bulls. This is the first action for Chicago in eight days and they have dropped their last two. Chicago won the first meeting in Mid-November as the Lakers were without LeBron James. James is back and will be the difference here. Take LOS ANGELES! |
|||||||
12-18-21 | Clippers v. Thunder +4.5 | 103-104 | Win | 100 | 12 h 17 m | Show | |
L.A. Clippers at Oklahoma City 8:00 ET Thunder (+) over Clippers- The over-rated Clippers started the season playing 19 of their first 28 games at home and must now face playing 20 of 30 on the road where they are 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven games. Oklahoma City has dropped 13 of 16 including a 73-point loss to Memphis but are 11-5 ATS after a loss and 7-2 ATS against the Clippers at home. Take OKLAHOMA CITY! |

12-18-21 | Magic +1.5 v. Nets | Top | 100-93 | Win | 100 | 12 h 48 m | Show |
Orlando at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Magic (+) over Nets- The Nets are a depleted squad but Kevin Durant is making his bid for MVP as he is averaging 37.5 points over the past four games picking up the slack of all those that are absent. Orlando on the other hand is 1-14 in their last 15 but with this line being what the oddsmakers have made it tells me that the Nets are in trouble here. Brooklyn is 21-8 SU on the season but are just 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games as favorites including 0-6 ATS as at home. The Magic are 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings including 5-1 ATS in Brooklyn. Hold your breath and take ORLANDO! |

Milwaukee at New Orleans 8:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Bucks- After a slow start to the season the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks have won 13 of 16 and have been playing short-handed a portion of the time. New Orleans who started the year 3-16 has now won six of their last 11 games behind Brandon Ingram who is averaging 27.9 points over the past eight games. The Bucks seem to play to the level of their competition as they are 7-16 ATS in their last 23 games against teams with losing records and are 1-4 ATS as favorites and 1-5 ATS after a SU win. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

12-17-21 | Warriors v. Celtics +3.5 | Top | 111-107 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 14 m | Show |
Golden State at Boston 7:30 ET Celtics (+) over Warriors- After breaking Ray Allen's 3-point shooting record in New York the Golden State Warriors and Stephen Curry will play in Boston where Allen set his NBA record. On Monday the Celtics took down Milwaukee with the return to the lineup by Jaylen Brown ending a 3-game losing streak. Boston is 7-4 SU at home this season and are 22-9 ATS in their last 31 as home underdogs. The first place Warriors are 1-4 ATS after a SU win and 1-4 ATS in their last five games in Boston. Take the CELTICS! |

Philadelphia at Brooklyn 7:30 ET 76ers (+) over Nets- With the best record in the East the Nets will host their closest challenger Philadelphia who trails Brooklyn by six-games in the loss column. The Nets were down to eight healthy bodies last time out and just relied on Kevin Durant to carry the load and he responded like a true champion (although he has never won an NBA championship. Philadelphia enters Brooklyn losing 3-of-4 with losses to Memphis and Miami after defeating Golden State on Saturday. The Nets are just 1-5 ATS after a SU win and are 0-6 ATS in their last six home games. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

12-15-21 | Wolves +4.5 v. Nuggets | 124-107 | Win | 100 | 12 h 32 m | Show | |
Minnesota at Denver 9:00 ET Timberwolves (+) over Nuggets- This series record between these two has to be considered when handicapping this matchup as the Wolves have lost 12 straight to Denver. The Nuggets have swept the season series that past three seasons against Minnesota but the Wolves are 21-6 ATS in the last 27 meetings in the Mile High City. D'Angelo Russell has been a huge plus for Minny as they are 0-5 without hime and 12-10 with his and he has returned after missing three games with an ankle sprain. Take MINNESOTA! |

12-15-21 | Hornets +3.5 v. Spurs | 131-115 | Win | 100 | 11 h 8 m | Show | |
Charlotte at San Antonio 8:30 ET Hornets (+) over Spurs- This is the Spurs fifth straight home game and they are off a 112-97 win over the Pelicans raising their home record to just 6-8. The Hornets have had four player in COVID protocol in their 120-96 loss at Dallas on Monday but will have Terry Rozier, Mason Plumlee and Jalen McDaniels will return tonight. Charlotte is 5-1 ATS in their last six games as underdogs and are 4-0 ATS after a SU loss. Tae the HORNETS! |
|||||||
12-15-21 | Pacers v. Bucks | Top | 99-114 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 43 m | Show |
Indiana at Milwaukee 8:00 ET Pacers (+) over Bucks- Milwaukee just finished a four-game road trip where they defeated a pair of games against sub-500 teams and lost to a pair of clubs with winning records. Indiana is off a 102-100 loss to Golden State but have won three of their last four at home and now go on the road where they are 3-10 SU. Doesn't it seem a bit off that the Bucks would be such a meager favorite at home against a team that has struggled away from home especially against a team that they defeated 118-100 at Indiana in their last meeting and is 0-6 ATS in their last six meetings in Milwaukee. Maybe because the Bucks are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 as home favorites. This is BOGUS...take the PACERS! |
|||||||
12-14-21 | Suns v. Blazers +3.5 | Top | 111-107 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 5 m | Show |
Phoenix at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Suns- These two have split a pair of meetings each holding serve at home with the Suns off a loss against the Clippers in Los Angeles last night. Phoenix is playing without Devin Booker and center Deandre Ayton while the Trailblazers have lost five straight and 8-of-9. The Suns are 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games and are 1-5-1 ATS playing without rest while Portland is 3-0-1 ATS at home against teams with winning records. Take PORTLAND! |

12-14-21 | Warriors v. Knicks +3.5 | 105-96 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 29 m | Show | |
Golden State at New York 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Warriors- If he couldn't get it done at home with 16 3-pointers in one game what better setting but to make just two 3-pointers at Madison Square Garden. Stephen Curry the NBA's 3-point shooting GOAT will surely pass Ray Allen to move to the top of the list of long distance shots made. New York will be a bit strapped as Obi Toppin and RJ Barrett are in COVID protocols but Alec Burks returns. Knicks just 7-14 SU since their 5-1 start and are 0-4 ATS in their last four games at home but rise for this event. Take NEW YORK! |

Milwaukee at Boston 7:30 ET Celtics (+) over Bucks- Milwaukee who has won 12-of-14 cruised yesterday at New York Sunday never trailing and leading buy more than 20-points in the second quarter. Boston has just returned from their West coast trip and won just one of five and should be looking forward to returning to 'Bean Town.' The Celtics played all five of those road games without All-star Jaylen Brown who returns to action tonight. The Bucks have struggled against the Celts and are 3-9 ATS in the last 12 meetings in Boston and are 0-4 ATS in the last four meetings. Take BOSTON! |

12-12-21 | Pelicans +2.5 v. Spurs | 97-112 | Loss | -108 | 8 h 21 m | Show | |
New Orleans at San Antonio 7:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Spurs- New Orleans has established that they are better than the Pistons by defeating Detroit 109-93 on Friday. But, all the news surrounding the Pelicans is not good. All-Everything Zion Williamson who has not played yet this season has had a set back and is not out indefinitely. So, now they realize that it is them against the world without their superstar. San Antonio is just a shell of champions past and most likely will be left out of the postseason playoffs. Spurs played last night at Charlotte losing outright as a 5-point favorite and are just 1-4-1 ATS in the second of back-to-back games. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

Milwaukee at New York 12:00 ET Knicks (+) over Bucks- After a quick start start to the season New York has taken a step back while the Champion Bucks who started slow have picked up the pace. The Knicks has lost five of six and have benched the guy the signed to help a struggling offense. Milwaukee is off a win at Houston Friday after their second loss to the Heat on Wednesday. These two have split a pair of games already this season with the nicks holding MVP Antetokounmpo below his average in both games. Take NEW YORK! |

Golden State at Philadelphia 8:30 ET 76ers (+) over Warriors- And 'the beat goes on' as the Warriors' Stephen Curry assaults the NBA 3-point scoring records. The 'greatest' shooter in NBA history (my personal opinion) Curry is drawing the attention of not only the public and media but of other players in the league and some aren't so happy about it...like his opponents! Philliy is 3-1 since the return of Joel Embiid since his bout with COVID and he is ready to go. Warriors are 3-11 ATS in their last 14 meetings in the 'Liberty Bell City' and they fall here. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

Utah at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over Jazz- Utah is at it again! Last season they ran of 18 straight wins and 'covered' most of those victories and now they have won six in-a-row straight-up while covering the last two on the road. The Jazz currently have the No. 2 offense with 115 PPG and are ranked No. 3 on defense at 104.4 PPG allowed. Tough numbers to beat but that's what the Wizards did twice last year against the Jazz winning both matchups. Known for their home court advantage Utah is 7-19-1 ATS against teams with winning home records and the Wiz are 5-0 ATS as home underdogs. Take WASHINGTON! |

Boston at Phoenix 10:00 ET Celtics (+) over Suns- Phoenix responded well after having their 18-game won streak stop by the Warriors with a win Monday over the lowly Spurs. Boston dropped their third of four against the Clippers 114-111 Wednesday night getting the money as they dropped to 7-9 SU on the road. The Celtics are 6-2 ATS in their last eight after a straight-up loss and are 5-2 ATS in their last seven as road dogs. Suns are 3-7 ATS 9in their last 10 as favorites! Take BOSTON! |

Sacramento at Charlotte 7:00 ET Kings (+) over Hornets- Seems a bit odd and very interesting that a below average team Kings that is under .500 (11-14) would be favored on the road against a plus .500 ream that is 7-4 SU at home and 7-0 ATS in their last seven. Such is the case in Charlotte where the Hornets just dropped a pair against the 76ers in back-to-backs. Sacramento has won three straight including back-to-back wins against the Clippers. What makes this 'line' even more perplexing is that the Hornets are the No. 1 scoring team in the NBA but their defense is 30th. Take SACRAMENTO. |

Utah at Philadelphia 7:00 ET 76ers (+) over Jazz- With Philadelphia having won their last three games it bothers me that they have come up the underdog at home even against the Jazz. Utah won by 32 points last night in Minnesota and are 8-3 SU on the road. Philly has had their way against Utah and are 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings including 4-0 ATS as hosts. The Jazz are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games as favorites while the 76ers are 4-1-1 ATS in their last six games as underdogs. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

Denver at New Orleans 8:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Nuggets- New Orleans started the season 3-16 and have turned turn about a bit winning four of their last seven while the Nuggets have lost eight of their last 10 and are a crew of wounded players. Denver is just 3-7 ATS as favorites including 2-6 ATS as road favorites and 2-7 ATS on the road overall. The Pelicans are 8-2 ATS as host against Denver in the last 10 meetings and are 5-2 ATS as home underdogs. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

Chicago at Cleveland 7:00 ET Cavaliers over Bulls- Like the Knicks were last year it looks like the Cavaliers are a team that is just going to get the best of the number night in and night out as they are 18-7 72% ATS on the season and it doesn't seem that the end is in sight. At the same time the charging Bulls have won four straight and are 17-8 both SU and ATS. Cleveland has covered eight straight although they have lost their last two out to Utah and Milwaukee. The Bulls have had the best o the Cavaliers for years but things are moving in another direction. Take CLEVELAND! |

LeBron James was back and played well Friday in the Lakers 119-115 loss to the Clippers as Boston was winning for the third time in four tries and have won 6-of-9.

New York at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Knicks- New York has a completely different look this year as last season's formula for success has been scraped for a more offensive approach. Looking to improve their scoring capabilities the Knicks brought in Kemba Walker and it changed the dynamics of what was the No. 1 defensive team to a team ranked 20th in points allowed. Although the Spurs record isn't so hot they are still 13-9 ATS and are 5-1 ATS against New York in the past six meetings. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

Brooklyn at Dallas 7:30 ET Mavericks (+) over Nets- Brooklyn who has yet to lose back-to-back games as 14-4 SU in their last 18 and have played better on the road than and home. Only 8-5 at home the Nets take well to the road and are 8-2 SU as visitors. Dallas has had a rough go of late losing four of five as both Porzingis and Doncic are ailing and guard Tim Hardaway Jr. is questionable for tonight's action. ATS numbers on both side are weak but the Mavs are 4-1 in the last five meetings. Take DALLAS! |

Cleveland at Milwaukee 8:00 ET Bucks (-) over Cavaliers- This 'new' version of the Cavaliers is a 'covering' machine and have made the cash their last seven times out and are 17-5 ATS in their last 22 games on the year. Unlike their opponent tonight the Champion Bucks are just goin through the motions until the real season starts in April and are just 11-13 ATS on the season. Looking at the stats Cleveland is the obvious choice but the obvious is not always so profitable. They are 8-1 ATS as road dogs while the Bucks are just 3-8 ATS in their last 11 home games but they are 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings at home. Take MILWAUKEE! |

Denver at Chicago 8:00 ET Nuggets (+) over Bulls- Both clubs are off successful trips to New York with the Bulls winning a pair at Brooklyn and Madison Square Garden and Denver off our 'Money Game' win over the Knicks on Saturday. Billy Donovan has Chicago playing at a much higher level this season then in recent past the are protecting the home floor going 8-3 ATS as home favorites and are 16-5 ATS as favorites overall. But, the Nuggets are 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings and 5-1 ATS in their last six trips to Chicago. Take DENVER! |

Denver at New York 1:00 ET Nuggets (+) over Knicks- This one seems a bit strange when one considers what is going on with the Nuggets. To start with they have lost seven of eight games and their MVP is hurting along with three other affected by COVID and Michael Porter Jr. just underwent season ending back surgery. New York is having their own difficulties having changed their chemistry when was so successful last year.

Atlanta who is still looking to get their footing this season at 12-10 are 8-3 SU at home and are 7-3 ATS while Philadelphia is playing better on the road then in past seasons going 7-4-1 ATS. In the past the 76ers would just mail it in when in Atlanta and are 2-7 ATS ij the last nine meetings in Georgia. But, with the return of Joel Embiid form COVID the Sixers are 3-1-1 ATS in their last five road games. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

Toronto is 2-8 SU at home and have lost five straight as hosts while the Bucks have just won eight straight entering tonight's fray. Milwaukee might just be what the Raptors need as they are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings overall while the Bucks are 1-5 ATS when playing the second of back-to-back nights. Take TORONTO! |

Detroit at L.A. Lakers- 9:30 ET Lakers (-) over Pistons- This game just goes to show 'us' how bad some teams are in the NBA. Detroit has won 4-of-21 games and are a double-digit underdogs to a sub-500 (10-11) club that is struggling to find their way. The Lakers have welcomed the return to action by LeBron James but they have yet to show the explosiveness and energy that is expected of a team with this kind of talent. Maybe against one of the league's worst clubs the Pistons whose No. 1 overall draft pick has yet to show any part of his promise is what LA needs to jump start their season. Take the LAKERS! |

Milwaukee at Indiana 5:00 ET Pacers (+) over Bucks- Milwaukee who has found their 'groove' with a six-game winning streak after a slow start that saw them 6-8 two weeks ago. The Pacers have won 3-of-4 doing it with defense allowing only 94, 77 and 97 points in their victories. Bucks still bitten by injuries play down to the level of their competition and are 5-13 ATS when playing time with a losing record. Pacers are 6-1 ATS as home underdogs so I expect some effort here. Take INDIANA! |

Golden State at L.A. Clippers 3:30 ET Clippers (+) over Warriors- I don't know about 'you' but I just love to watch Golden State with Stephen Curry play basketball. Currently the Warriors winners of six straight have the best record in the NBA and 17-2 is very impressive but maybe even more so is that they are 14-4-1 ATS. Clippers have been a bit inconsistent but play well against the Warriors going 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and are 4-1 ATAS as home dogs. Take CLIPPERS! |

Atlanta took out New York in that series and a great deal is expected of them both this year. The Knicks jumped out to a 5-1 start and are just 5-8 since while the Hawks lost nine of their first 13 and are 6-1 since. Although the Knicks are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings they are 7-3-1 ATS in their last 11 games in Atlanta. Take NEW YORK! |

Boston at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Celtics- I just don't think these Boston Celtics are all that good or they are so underachieving that they can only get better but I don't think so. It is said that 'numbers never lie...but they can be very misleading' and still provide valuable information. The Celtics seem happy with just loping down court and throwing out the first 3-point opportunity they come across without a thought of concern for rebound positing or defensive position as they are now defenseless. Spurs need good effort and Boston is the perfect visitor as they are just 1-4 ATS in San Antonio and 5-16-1 ATS in the last 22 meetings overall. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

Minnesota's winning streak comes on the heels of a six game losing streak after starting 3-1. T'Wolves are a respectable 3-3 on the road and have three quality scorers that can get you any night.

L.A. Lakers at Indiana 7:00 ET Lakers (+) over Pacers- According to the oddsmakers the Lakers are the 'bettor' choice' to win the NBA Championship and I think it's time for them to re-think their position. This is a team that is 4-7 without Lebron James on the floor and look totally directionless without the 'King.' If this is who Los Angeles is without James it just should establish that he is the MVP or at least 'Most Impact-full Person'. James returns tonight and adds the stability needed to rein in Westbrook's inconsistent play. Take the LAKERS! |

The Bulls are finishing up a five game road trip where they are 2-2 and are playing in Denver where they have lost 13 straight (3-10 ATS) to the Nuggets. Denver had won five straight before losing to Dallas Monday night and then dropped another to the 76ers last night who had lost six in-a-row.

L.A. Clippers at New Orleans 8:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Clippers- Los Angeles may have one of the best records in the West but they have don't most of their achievements in the Pacific Time zone and are doing it with a skeleton crew as they have seven players no less injured. New Orleans has won just two games and because of that it makes me wonder why this point spread is so low. One factor may be that the Clippers are 1-3-1 on the road against losing teams and the other is the they are 6-20 ATS in their last 26 games in New Orleans. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

But, I expect Charlotte to have a bit of a let down after defeating a pair of division leaders in Golden State and Washington in back-to-back games. The Pacers are 10-2 ATS when playing a team with a winning record and 4-1 ATS in their last five games as underdogs. Take INDIANA! |

This will be Chicago's fourth straight road games and they are off a pair of wins in Los Angeles where they won and covered a pair against the Lakers and Clippers. The Trailblazers are playing well at home have they have won their last six and they are 5-1 ATS as home favorites. The Bulls are just 2-9 ATS in the last nine meetings and 2-5 ATS as road underdogs.

Cleveland at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Nets (-) over Cavaliers- Brooklyn is coming off their worst performance of the year getting blown away by the league's best Golden State last night as Kevin Durant scored a season low 18 points and the Nets shot their worst 38.6 percent. Brooklyn was also out-hustled on the board where they had a 53-38 deficit. Cleveland at 9-6 is off to their best start since LeBron James left the franchise but will be short-handed tonight as starting rookie center Evan Mobley who was injured Monday and Collin Sexton sidelined indefinitely and Kevin Love who is in COVID protocol. Too much for the Cavs to overcome and the Nets REBOUND tonight. Take BROOKLYN! |

New Orleans at Washington 7:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Wizards- After starting 3-9 last season the Wizards have been one of the biggest surprises in the NBA at 9-3 this year. New Orleans ended a nine game losing streak with their first home win (1-6) of the season defeating Memphis 112-101 with the return of Brandon Ingram and he must be the difference as Washington opened a meager 3-point favorite. I expect that number to rise as well as the Pelicans stock after tonight win on the road. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

Clippers 10:40 ET Heat (+) over Clippers- After a slow start the Clippers have won five straight and are off a 117-109 victory over Portland last night while Miami fell in OT to the undermanned Lakers. Not a long trip for the Heat who are 0-5 ATS in the last five meetings and 4-9 ATS at LA. But this is a tough Miami team that truly has grit and is 5-0 ATS on zero days rest and 9-4 ATS in their last 13 road games. Take MIAMI! |

Indiana at Utah 9:10 ET Pacers (+) over Jazz- Indiana off to a disappointing 4-8 start including 1-6 on the road now have the task of playing the Jazz in Utah where they are 4-0 SU at home home and 7-2 ATS in their last nine as home favorites. The Pacers can man-up and get it done as they Rare 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games as underdogs and are 8-1 ATS against teams with winning records. Take INDIANA! |

Toronto at Philadelphia 7:10 ET Raptors (+) over 76ers- This line seems a bit shallow as the 8-4 at home Sixers are less than a long shot favorite against a 6-6 team. Philly has dropped their last two and maybe they are starting to feel the effects of all the drama surrounding the whole Ben Simmons ordeal. Toronto has played well on the road although not in Philadelphia where they are 0-4 ATS in the last four meetings but otherwise are 6-0 ATS on the road against teams with winning records. Take TORONTO! |

11-10-21 | Blazers +5 v. Suns | 109-119 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 33 m | Show | |
Portland at Phoenix 9:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Suns- Phoenix has bounced back from the 1-3 start and have now whipped off six straight wins while Portland is on a 4-game road trip and they are 0-5 SU on the road this season including a loss at Clippers last night. Some might see this as a revenge or 'get even' and as the Blazers handed the Suns a 134-105 loss in opening week, but I sorta see an opponent that they know they can beat. Bounce back against the Suns. Take PORTLAND! |

Dallas at Chicago 8:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Bulls- Dallas is off to their best start in seven years and at 7-3 they are about to embark play that puts them on the road the six of their next seven games. The start here with a win against the Bulls who they have dropped their last three games against. The Mavericks are warming up to Jason Kidd at the helm and are ready to break through as underdogs (0-5 ATS L-5). Luka Doncic can dominate the floor here. Take DALLAS! |

11-09-21 | Hawks +8.5 v. Jazz | 98-110 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 33 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Utah 9:00 ET Hawks (+) over Jazz- The Hawks were been grounded once again last night at Golden State when Stephen Curry showed Trae Young who's the best shooting guard in the NBA (if not NBA history) by dropping in 50 points making nine 3-pointers. Atlanta has now lost four straight and six of their last seven and are 1-6 SU and 0-7 ATS on the road. These two met in Atlanta last Thursday with the Jazz prevailing 116-98 which was their last win as they have dropped their last two at Miami and Orlando. In a contest where the points may come into play it should be the Hawks. Take ATLANTA! |

11-08-21 | Hornets +2 v. Lakers | 123-126 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 6 m | Show | |
Charlotte at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET Hornets (+) over Lakers- There is something rotten in Denmark and it stinks all the way to Los Angeles where the Lakers host Charlotte. The 'Lake Show' via Russell Westbrook are 5-5 on the season but more importantly (especially to us) they are just 2-8 ATS and have four four straight to the 'number.' The Hornets have been just as disappointing as they have lost their last four as well both SU and ATS and are currently 0-3 on this California road trip losing to Sacramento, Golden State and the Clippers. With all that they come up a 1.5-point underdog in LA meaning that if this game were played on a neutral site that the Hornets would be favored (How about that!). This one smells...take CHARLOTTE! |

11-08-21 | Hawks +3.5 v. Warriors | Top | 113-127 | Loss | -108 | 11 h 44 m | Show |
Atlanta at Golden State 10:00 ET Hawks (+) over Warriors- The gleam and shine from last season's playoff run by the Hawks seems to have faded during the off season as they are off to a 4-6 start and just 3-7 ATS. Golden State seems to gained their previous form leading the NBA with an 8-1 record and are 5-1 SU going 3-0-1 ATS in their last four. This will be their sixth straight home game after such a long stay at home a ream can become a bit stale. Atlanta has dropped 5-of-6 SU and 6-of-7 ATS but are ready to breakout as they are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings overall and 4-1 ATS in their last five at Golden State. Take ATLANTA! |

11-08-21 | Heat v. Nuggets +2 | 96-113 | Win | 100 | 10 h 38 m | Show | |
Miami at Denver 9:00 ET Nuggets (+) over Heat- Miami is one of the teams that improved their lot during the off season and the addition of Kyle Lowry has already shown positive results. The Heat are off a huge home win over Utah Saturday night and Lowry was the fey factor posted a triple-double with 20 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. Denver has dropped 2-of-3 and are 0-3 ATS coming off a 95-94 win over Houston but are No. 1 in defense allowing just 98.9 ppg while Miami is No. 2 allowing 100.2. The Nuggets have had their way I the series between the two as they are 11-5 ATS at home and 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings overall. Take DENVER! |

11-07-21 | Hornets +6 v. Clippers | 106-120 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 35 m | Show | |
Charlotte at L.A. Clippers 9:00 ET Hornets (+) over Clippers- After a slow 1-4 start Los Angeles has won their last three to even up their record at 4-4 but upon closer review we see that they defeated Oklahoma City twice and Minnesota who are a combined 3-11. As Charlotte visits LA it is a homecoming of sorts of LaMelo Ball who played twice on his home town last year against the Clippers and Lakers but without any fans in attendance. The Hornets were blown out 140-110 at Sacramento Friday allowing a franchise record 22 3-pointers. Look for a better effort for the Hornets and for the Clippers to struggle against better competition. Take CHARLOTTE! |

11-07-21 | Pacers +1.5 v. Kings | Top | 94-91 | Win | 100 | 7 h 39 m | Show |
Indiana at Sacramento 6:00 ET Pacers (+) over Kings- The price of this game has me a little miffed as 5-4 Sacramento and off a pair home wins and 'covers' with the last one by 30-points is hosting the 3-7 Pacers who are 0-5 on the road and yet the Kings are favored by less than a field goal. Add that Indiana is 1-4 ATS in their last five trips to Sacramento makes this even more intriguing. One more strange thing about this Kings squad is that they are not playing Marvin Bagley III who is not listed on the injury list and has played in just one game for 10 minutes scoring only two points. That's more time than Ben Simmons but the Kings are supposedly trying to trade him. Take INDIANA! |

11-07-21 | Nets v. Raptors +3.5 | 116-103 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 7 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at Toronto 3:30 ET Raptors (+) over Nets- Toronto who didn't get to play any home games last season are 4-0 on the road where I guess they feel comfortable and only 2-4 at home. The Raptors last home affair was a 102-101 loss to Cleveland after leading by 15-points in the third quarter but that is the nature of the NBA nowadays. What is surprising about the 6-3 Nets is that their offense has really struggled averaging just 105 ppg which ranks them 20th in the league. This should play into the Raptors hands as they are 4th in the NBA defense allowing just 100.4 ppg. Trends will play against Brooklyn here as they are 1-4 ATS on the road and 1-6 ATS on one days rest as well as 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings. Take TORONTO! |

11-06-21 | Hawks v. Suns -5 | 117-121 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 14 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Phoenix 10:00 ET Hawks (+) over Suns- A pair of clubs that are trending in opposite directions as the Suns who started the season 1-3 have reeled off three straight win and Atlanta who won their first two games have dropped four of their last five. The Hawks last loss was by double-digits while the Suns last win was also by double-digits and there are trends tell us that Atlanta is 52-23 in their last 75 games after losing by 10 or more points and Phoenix is 8-1-1 ATS after winning by 10-points or more but they are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games overall and are 2-8 ATS after scoring 100 points or more the previous game. Take ATLANTA! |

11-06-21 | Celtics v. Mavs -3 | 104-107 | Push | 0 | 7 h 35 m | Show | |
Boston at Dallas 8:30 ET Mavericks (-) over Celtics- It took a closed door 'players only' team meetings to 'straighten out' the Celtics and now after back-to-back victories it's all good again...not hardly. The jury is still out on whether or not Boston coach Ime Udoka has a clue as to what is going on but when there is a 'players only' closed door meeting just five days into his tenure his capabilities must into question. Boston is 1-4 ATS in their last five games as underdogs and just 3-13 ATS in their last 16 games on one days rest. Take DALLAS! |

11-06-21 | 76ers +4 v. Bulls | 114-105 | Win | 100 | 6 h 56 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Chicago 8:00 ET 76ers (+) over Bulls- It is always tough to pull the trigger on the 76ers as the status of Joel Embiid is always a question as they ride a five-game winning streak. Including mental case Ben Simmons Philadelphia is short-handed with six total players out and two others questionable and need Embiid on the floor. Chicago is 6-2 with a 1-point home loss to the Knicks and were beaten on Wednesday in Philadelphia 103-98 as a 2.5-point dog and are 0-4 ATS in the last four meetings. Take the SIXERS! |

11-05-21 | Knicks +4 v. Bucks | Top | 113-98 | Win | 100 | 6 h 50 m | Show |
New York at Milwaukee 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Bucks- New York has gone from the No. 1 defensive team to the bottom third of the pack and I believe that it can all be attributed to the addition of defensively challenged Kemba Walker. The Knicks have dropped their last two while Milwaukee just ended a 3-game slide with a win at Detroit as they deal with a rash of injuries and COVID prodigals. Now, the Knicks throw up 3-point attempts with the best of them and are No. 2 in scoring averaging 113 ppg. Look for New York who is 15-7 ATS in their last 22 road games while Milwaukee is 6-2 ATS as home favorites. The Bucks stops here! Take the KNICKS! |
|||||||
11-04-21 | Celtics +7 v. Heat | 95-78 | Win | 100 | 4 h 11 m | Show | |
Boston at Miami 7:40 ET Celtics (+) over Heat- It looks to me as though Miami is making an early statement while the Celtics have already had a 'players only' team meeting and responded with a win over a weak Orlando team. But, a win is a win and any win is good if you are the Celtics who could easily retreat to their prior form and get crushed by this well coached, hard nose team led by Jimmy Butler and a quality cast to follow. But, Boston needs to win otherwise the panic will start to seeping in. Take BOSTON! |

11-04-21 | Jazz v. Hawks +2 | Top | 116-98 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 21 m | Show |
Utah at Atlanta 7:20 ET Hawks (+) over Jazz- Atlanta started quick with wins in 3 of their first 4 and have mw dropped 3-of-4 including a loss at Brooklyn last night while the Jazz are 6-1 with their only loss coming at Chicago against the then unbeaten Bulls. The trends are difficult to argue with and Utah has all the numbers on their side but Atlanta is an 'upstart' and Hawks have claws too. Take ATLANTA! |
