6* Pacers +1.5
The Key: The fact Indiana is coming off a loss is of no concern. The Pacers have 8 losses on the season and have followed up each of the first 7 defeats with wins. Going back to last season, the Pacers are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a loss.

6* Mavericks -129
The Key: A 15-point loss to Minnesota last month puts the reigning NBA champs in a great spot. Dallas is 8-0 ATS in road games when out to avenge a loss of 10 points or more to an opponent over the last 2 seasons. It's winning by an average of 8.5 points in this situation.

7* NBA *HEAVY HITTER* on Nets +2.5
The Key: The Pistons are 5-17 ATS in their last 22 games as a home favorite of 4.5 points or less, 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games as a home favorite and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as a favorite. Also, often undervalued on the Friday night stage, the Nets are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 Friday games. Bet the Nets.

6* Suns -3.5
The Key: The Suns are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 home games against the Rockets. The have won the last 4 at home in this matchup by 6.5 points on average.

7* NBA *HEAVY HITTER* on Lakers +3.5
The Key: I'm not sold on Boston, whose best wins are Orlando and Indiana. The Lakers have wins over Denver (when the Nuggets were at full strength), the reigning NBA champion Mavs, and the Clippers. Plus, they played the Bulls to a 1-point game (Boston lost to the Bulls by 9 at home). Off back-to-back defeats, the Lakers will clearly be up for this game. They've won 3 in a row and five of their last six in Boston during the regular season. Take LA.

6* Mavericks +1.5
The Key: The underdog is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings. The Mavericks are 13-3-1 ATS in their last 17 games as an underdog and 59-29-1 ATS in their last 89 games as a road underdog of 4.5 points or less.

6* Grizzlies -8
The Key: The Timberwolves are 0-5 ATS in the last 5 meetings and 0-4 ATS in the last 4 meetings in Memphis. The Grizzlies are 35-17-1 ATS in their last 53 home games, 24-9 ATS in their last 33 games as a favorite and 20-8 ATS in their last 28 games as a home favorite.

6* Hawks -3
The Key: The home team is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings. The Pacers are 2-6 ATS in the last 8 meetings and 0-4 ATS in the last 4 meetings in Atlanta. Also, the favorite is 16-5 ATS in the last 21 meetings.

6* Cavaliers +7
The Key: The home team is 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings. The Clippers are 2-8 ATS in the last 10 meetings and 0-5 ATS in the last 5 meetings in Cleveland. The underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings.

7* NBA Non-Conference Game of the Year on Bucks -7
The Key: The Bucks are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 home games when matched up against a a team with a road winning percentage of less than .400 while the Suns are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 road games when up against a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600. The Suns are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 games overall and 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games as an underdog of 5.0-10.5 points. Also, the favorite is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings. Lay the points as the rested Bucks handle the Suns at home.

7* NBA *HEAVY HITTER* on Grizzlies -1
The Key: San Antonio is 1-5 SU and ATS in its last 6 meetings at Memphis. In addition, the Grizzlies are on a 10-2-1 ATS run in the 13 overall meetings in the series. The Spurs snapped a 5-game skid in Memphis a week ago, but the Grizzlies are an impressive 25-10 ATS in their last 35 when out for revenge for a same season loss. Take the Grizzlies.

6* Rockets -6.5
The Key: I'm fading the Suns on the road against a motivated Rockets squad that will be hungry to end a 2-game skid. The Suns are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games overall, 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a home winning percentage greater than .600 and 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games as an underdog of 5.0-10.5 points. The Rockets are 8-4 ATS at home this season and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games as a favorite of 5.0-10.5 points.

7* NBA Line Mistake Game of the Month on Grizzlies +9
The Key: Odds makers have overinflated this line because the Grizzlies just played last night, but this team has been the best in the NBA in back-to-backs, going 20-4 ATS when playing on back-to-back days over the last 2 seasons. The fact Memphis has lost the first two meetings in the season series also bodes well for us considering it is 18-8 ATS when playing with double revenge since the beginning of last season. As you recall, OKC knocked Memphis out of the playoffs last year. The Grizzlies will be looking to make a major statement here and should be able to keep this one easily within the generous number.

6* Raptors -4.5
The Key: The Raptors fit perfectly into a system that has been money in the bank the last 5 seasons. Playing on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points (TORONTO) that are out for revenge for a road loss of 10 points or more to a foe, and are coming off a road blowout loss of 20 points or more, are 24-5 ATS the last 5 seasons. We'll take the Raptors.

6* Kings +3.5
The Key: Portland has really struggled outside the Rose Garden to the tune of 3-8 SU and ATS. The Blazers are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games as a road favorite and 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games as a road favorite of 4.5 points or less.

6* Timberwolves +6.5
The Key: The Timberwolves are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a road underdog of 5.0-10.5 points.

7* NBA Letdown Game of the Year on Hornets +13
The Key: The Hornets are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as a road underdog and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a SU loss. The Heat are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as a favorite, 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games, 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following an ATS loss, 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following a SU win and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a losing record. Expect the Heat to endure a letdown here following a big win over the Bulls. Take the Hornets.

6* Magic +7.5
The Key: The Magic are 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings, including 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings in Philadelphia.

7* NBA *HEAVY HITTER* on Lakers +1.5
The Key: The Lakers have won 15 in a row against the T-Wolves, and I expect this run to continue Sunday. LA's length has given the Wolves major problems in recent meetings, and I expect it to be the difference again. The Lakers aren't at all happy with the way they've played on the road, and they'll do something about it here against a team they've dominated.

7* NBA Non-Conference Game of the Month on Hornets +4
The Key: It's going to be tough for the Magic to get back up tonight after blowing a 27-point lead in last night's loss to the Celtics. They would rather hide under a rock right now. The Hornets are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a loss and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as an underdog. The Magic are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a losing home record and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 against the Hornets. Take the points.

6* Lakers -3.5
The Key: While the Clippers and Lakers both play at the Staples Center, the team considered the home team has had a big advantage in terms of the point spread. Consider that the designated home side is 7-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings.

7* NBA Western Conference Game of the Year on Warriors -3.5
The Key: The Warriors are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 matchups against the Trail Blazers and 11-1 ATS in their last 12 home matchups against Portland. Also, the Trail Blazers are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog.

6* Kings +6
The Key: This series has been dominated by the home team. In fact, the home team is 7-2-2 ATS in the last 11 meetings.

6* Trail Blazers -5.5
The Key: Portland is 7-1 SU and 6-2 ATS at home, where it is winning by an average of 10.3 points. I expect it to bring Memphis' 7-game winning streak to an end here. The Grizzlies are coming off an emotionally and physically exhausting 1-point win over Golden State in which they had to come back from 20 points down late in the second half. Expect them to come out flat and fall this evening.

6* Magic +3
The Key: Orlando has won 5 in a row against Indiana in convincing fashion (by an average of 13.6 points). Coming off arguably the worst performance in franchise history Monday, the Magic have all the incentive they need to continue their dominance against the Pacers.

7* NBA *HEAVY HITTER* on Warriors -1.5
The Key: The Grizzlies are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games as an underdog and 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog. The home team is 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings.

6* Timberwolves -2.5
The Key: The Rockets are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog.

7* NBA Underdog Game of the Month on Pistons +4
The Key: The Grizzlies are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 road games. The Pistons are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games as a home underdog and 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog of 4.5 points or less. Also, underdogs (DETROIT) - cold team failing to cover the spread in 8 or more of their last 10 and tired team playing 8 or more games in 14 days - are 42-11 ATS the last 5 seasons. Pound the Pistons.

6* 76ers -5.5
The Key: The 76ers are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games overall, 7-1 ATS in their last 8 home games and 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games as a favorite. Lay the number.

6* Mavericks +3
The Key: The Mavericks are 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings and 24-8-1 ATS in their last 33 games as a road underdog.

7* NBA *HEAVY HITTER* on Hornets +10
The Key: Plays on road underdogs of 10 points or more (NEW ORLEANS) - extremely tired team playing their 5th game in 7 days against an extremely tired opponent playing 9 or more games in 14 days - are 27-7 ATS the last 10 seasons. Think Houston is laying a few too many points here given the level of its fatigue.

6* Nets -2.5
The Key: The Warriors have lost 11 of their last 13 in New Jersey, and they are just 2-7 ATS in their last 9 visits to the Garden State.

7* NBA *HEAVY HITTER* on Spurs +6
The Key: Expect the Spurs to show up in a big way following last night's embarrassing loss to Miami. The Spurs are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games following a loss of more than 10 points.

6* Heat -6.5
The Key: The Spurs are 1-11 ATS in their last 12 road games and 0-6 ATS in their last 6 road games when valued as an underdog.

7* NBA *HEAVY HITTER* on Bobcats +12
The Key: The road team has had the overwhelming edge in this series at 10-3 ATS in the last 13 meetings. Plus, the Bobcats are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog of 11.0 or greater and the Magic are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games following a road trip of 7 or more days.
