20* SHARP PLAY on Suns +4½ -105

The Suns (+4.5) are worth a look here as a road dog in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. I think the perception here is that Milwaukee is going to get this game with the series shifting to their home court, but I think it's pretty clear that the Suns are the better team. Phoenix just has a much better rhythm offensively than Milwaukee. They also have a lot more guys who can contribute, where the Bucks really only got Holiday and Middleton outside of Giannis. If all 3 of those guys aren't great, they are in trouble. I like the Sun to  win this one. Play Phoenix +4.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -5½ +101

The Suns (-5.5) are worth a look as a home favorite against the Bucks in Game 2 of the NBA Finals. I know the Bucks gave Phoenix a better game than the 13-point margin, but there's no question in my mind that the Suns are the better team. Chris Paul has been waiting his entire NBA career for this moment. He will refuse to let his team lose. Milwaukee couldn't contain Paul and Booker in Game 1. I also think Giannis is playing at less than 100%. Play the Suns -5.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -5½ -110

The Suns (-5.5) are worth a look as a home favorite against the Bucks in Tuesday's Game 1 of the NBA Finals. Really an easy play here on Phoenix with Milwaukee expected to be without their star player Giannis Antetokounmpo. Even with a healthy Greek Freak, I still think the Suns are the more talented team. I also think Phoenix matches up a lot better defensively against the length of the Bucks. Something the Hawks really struggled with in the Eastern Conference Finals. Play the Suns -5.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -2½ -102

The Bucks (-2.5) are worth a look as a small home favorite in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Most will be hesitant to back Milwaukee in this one, as they will be without Antetokoumpo. Much like we saw from Atlanta in Game 4 without Trae Young, look for the other Bucks to step up in a big way. There's also a decent chance the Hawks will still be without Young. Play the Bucks -2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -1 +103

The Suns (-1) are worth a look as a small road favorite against the Clippers in Game 6. Hats off to LA for staying alive with a convincing road win in Game 5, but I don't see them being able to repeat that performance, even at home. Clippers got about as good a game as they could get out of Paul George. Reggie Jackson, Marcus Morris and DeMarcus Cousins also had games they are unlikely to repeat. Those 4 guys shot 39-62 (63%) from the field, while accounting for 9 of the 10 made 3's for LA. Play the Suns -1! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -6 -114

The Bucks (-6) are worth a look as a decently priced road favorite against the Hawks in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals. I just have a hard time seeing Atlanta keeping this close. Trae Young may not even play and if he does, he doesn't figure to be close to 100%. With how easy it is for Milwaukee to score on the other side, Atlanta needs Young to be great to make a game of it. I just don't see Young going off for 30+ on a bum foot. Play the Bucks -6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -5½ -102

The Suns (-5.5) are worth a look as a home favorite in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals. My money is on Phoenix to finish off the Clippers and punch their ticket to the NBA Finals with a win and cover tonight. It wasn't pretty for either team in the two games in LA, but the poor shooting on the road was to be expected for Phoenix. No way Chris Paul and Devin Booker shoot as bad as they have in the last two games. This just isn't a fair fight for the Clippers without Kawhi. Play the Suns -5.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks +4 +102

The Hawks (+4) are worth a look as a small home dog in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Most will be quick to take Milwaukee after how they dominated Game 2, but I almost thought that was to be expected. Atlanta got what they wanted in a split and should be much more focused and ready to go in Game 3 at home. Play the Hawks +4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Clippers +1 -110

The Clippers (+1) are worth a look as a small home dog in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals. It's almost like LA prefers to be down 0-2 in a series. Clippers dominated the 2nd half in their 14-point home win against the Suns in Game 3. They really made some nice adjustments defensively against Booker since his Game 1 explosion. I just don't think LA should be getting points in this one. Play the Clippers +1! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -7½ -109

The Bucks (-7.5) are worth a look as a home favorite in Game 2 against the Hawks in the EC Finals. No way Milwaukee is going down 0-2. Look for the Bucks to make some adjustments defensively on Trae Young. People overlook the fact that he put up 48 points and the Hawks probably should have lost that game. Atlanta has no answer for Giannis and they nearly won Game 1 with Middleton only scoring 15 points. Play the Bucks -7.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -1 +103

The Suns (-1) are worth a look as a slim road favorite against the Clippers in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals on Thursday. Phoenix is up 2-0 and will be getting back Chris Paul after he missed the first two games. LA will still be without Kawhi Leonard. I know the Clips have responded well to adversity so far in the playoffs, but they are just not good enough without Leonard to win this series. Play the Suns -1! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks +7½ -105

The Hawks (+7.5) are worth a look here as a road dog in Game 1 against the Bucks. This is a tough spot for both teams, as they are each coming off a win on the road in a Game 7 against a team they weren't suppose to beat. I just think it will be a little tougher for Milwaukee to recover mentally from that win over the Nets. Atlanta has been a good road team in the playoffs and I wouldn't be shocked if they won outright. Play the Hawks +7.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Clippers +6 -110

The Clippers (+6) is worth a look as a decently priced road dog against the Suns in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals. While Phoenix won and covered Game 1, that one could have gone either way. No team has been better at making adjustments against a team in the playoffs than these Clippers. I just don't trust the Suns without Chris Paul and will take my chances that we don't see Booker have quite the impact he did in Game 1. Play the Clippers +6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -4 -110

The Suns (-4) are worth a look as a slim 4-point home favorite in Game 1. Phoenix won't have Chris Paul, but LA will be without Kawhi Leonard. The spot here also heavily favors the Suns, who have had a week off to rest after their sweep of the Nuggets. LA just played a grueling 6-games series against the Jazz after a grueling 7-game series with the Mavs. Not to mention the energy the Clippers had to use to rally from way back in their Game 6 win over Utah. Play the Suns -4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks +1 -105

The Bucks (+1) are worth a look in Saturday's Game 7 between the Nets and Bucks. Brooklyn just isn't the same without a healthy Kyrie Irving and James Harden. Irving won't be available and Harden is playing at like 65%. Milwaukee simply has more fire-power offensively and as long as they can keep Durant from going off for 50, they should win here rather easily. Play the Bucks +1! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks +3 -104

The Hawks (+3) are worth a look as a small home dog in Game 6 against the 76ers. It's hard to explain how Atlanta came back to win Game 5 after trailing by 20+ with less than 15 minutes to play. Either way it gave this Hawks team all the momentum going into Game 6 at home. All the pressure is on the 76ers and I'm not so sure they are equipped to handle it. Losing in this fashion is also what Doc Rivers' coached teams seem to do in the playoffs. Play the Hawks +3! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets +5½ -101

The Nets (+5.5) are worth a look as a decently priced road dog against the Bucks in Game 6 on Thursday. This is just too many points for Brooklyn to be catching in this spot. Nets have all the momentum after their huge 2nd half rally to steal Game 5 at home. It will not be easy for the Bucks to bounce back from that loss. Look for Durant to be great again and for Harden to play a much bigger role offensively than he did in Game 5. Play the Nets +5.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -6 -108

The 76ers (-6) are worth a look as a decently priced home favorite against the Hawks in Game 5 on Wednesday. Atlanta was able to steal Game 4 103-100, rallying from double-digits down, to even the series 2-2. Great win, but I still think Philly is by far the better team. Look for the 76ers to have their way back at home, much like they did in their convincing win at home in Game 2. Play the 76ers -6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks vs Nets over 218½ -110

The OVER (218.5) is worth a look in Tuesday's Game 5 between the Nets and Bucks. These last few games in this series have been extremely low scoring, which I think has created some value with the OVER at 218.5. Keep in mind Game 1 of this series had a total of 240. Both teams are due to make some shots. Play the OVER 218.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz +5 -104

The Jazz (+5) are worth a look as a small road dog in Game 4 against the Clippers on Monday. I think we are getting some value here with Utah coming off that ugly loss in Game 3 at LA. That was to be expected with the Jazz up 2-0 and the Clippers basically playing to keep their season alive, as no team has come back from a 3-0 deficit. Look for a much better showing from Utah tonight, as I think they win this one outright. Play the Jazz +5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets vs Bucks over 228½ -110

The OVER (228.5) is worth a look in Sunday's Game 4 between the Bucks and Nets. As difficult as it may be to back the OVER after what we watched in Game 3, where neither team managed to score 90 points, no way these two shoot as poorly from the field as they did in that matchup. The two teams were a pathetic 14 of 63 from behind the 3-point line and both shot under 38% from the field. Look for the offense to pick up and for this one to go over the mark. Play the OVER 228.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz vs Clippers over 223 -100

The OVER (223) is worth a look in Saturday's Game 3 between the Jazz and Clippers. These two barely stayed under the total of 222.5 in Game 1, finishing with 221. The OVER hit in Game 2 with the two combining for 228 and a total of 222. I don't think the series shifting to LA is going to keep the scoring down. These are two of the best offensive teams and 3-point shooting teams in the league. They also got guys who can get to their spots and score at will. Play the OVER 223! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks +1½ -110

The Hawks (+1.5) are worth a look as a slim home dog in Game 3 against the 76ers on Friday. Atlanta showed they are not overmatched in this series by taking Game 1 on the road. As you would expect the 76ers responded in Game 2, but I see no reason why the Hawks won't hold serve at home. Play the Hawks +1.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -3 -104

The Bucks (-3) are worth a look as a small home favorite in Game 3 against the Nets on Thursday. Milwaukee is primed for a big bounce back performance after that embarrassing loss in Game 2. The series shifting to Milwaukee is definitely a big plus for the Bucks. Playing in front of the home fans should be a big boost for the role players. The Nets also figure to cool off a little offensively. Play the Bucks -3! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets vs Suns under 223 -113

The UNDER (223) is worth a look in Game 2 between the Nuggets and Suns on Wednesday. These two teams combined for 227 in Game 1 and that was with both teams shooting it well. Denver hit 47% from the field and the Suns shot 54.1%. Both teams will have a better understanding of what the other is trying to do offensively. I also don't think the Nuggets had the right defensive mindset in Game 1. Play the UNDER 223! 

20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -5 -105

The 76ers (-5) are worth a look in Game 2 against the Hawks on Tuesday. Atlanta jumped all over Philly early in Game 1, as they shot lights out. Even though the Hawks were able to hold on for the win, I was impressed with how the 76ers came back in that game. I also love that Embiid was able to play. Philly will turn it up a notch to avoid going down 0-2 at home. Play the 76ers -5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks vs Nets under 233½ +101

The UNDER (223.5) is worth a look in Monday's NBA playoff action that has the Bucks visiting the Nets for Game 2 of their series. These two combined for just 222 points in Game 1 and that was with that ridiculous total of 240. Books have adjusted quite a bit not only from that game but also Brooklyn losing Harden. Still, I think the number here is way too high. As much fire-power that these two have offensively, they are really strong defensively. Play the UNDER 233.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs +6½ -110

The Mavs (+6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced road dog in Game 7 at the Clippers. This series has been backwards from the start, as the road team has won each of the first 6 games. Why not make it 7? Either way I like the Mavs to keep it close. Dallas was right there with a chance to win in the 4th quarter in Game 6 and that was with Doncic not playing his best and Khawi going off for 45 on 18 of 25 shooting. Play the Mavs +6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -3½ -104

The Nets (-3.5) are worth a look as a slim home favorite in Game 1 of their series with the Bucks. This just feels like a discount to back Brooklyn. The Bucks are a great team, but the Nets are special with 3 of the best players in the game in Durant, Irving and Harden. I don't see them losing this series or any series for that matter. This line indicates these two would be close to a pick'em on a neutral floor. I'm not buying it. Play the Nets -3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs +2½ -102

The Mavs (+2.5) are worth a look as a small home dog against the Clippers in Game 6 Friday night. Everyone is still saying the Clippers are the better team, but I disagree. Luka Doncic is the best player on the floor in this series and I think the home team finally wins one in this series and the Mavs advance. Play Dallas +2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns vs Lakers over 207½ -103

The OVER (207.5) is worth a look in Game 6 on Thursday between the Lakers and Suns. I think we are going to see Phoenix score in that 110-115 range like they did in Game 5 at home. Key here is I see a big uptick offensively from LA at home in this one. I think the Lakers easily got to 100 and that should easily get us over this low mark. Play the OVER 207.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards +7½ -112

The Wizards (+7.5) are worth a look as a near double-digit road dog against the 76ers in Game 5 of their first round series on Wednesday. It looked like this series was over after the 76ers went up 3-0, but a recent injury to Joel Embiid has given Washington life. Wizards might just pull off the unthinkable and win 3 in a row. Either way I like them to at least make a game of it tonight. Play the Wizards +7.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -4 -111

The Suns (-4) are worth a look as a relatively small home favorite against the Lakers in Game 5 on Tuesday. This is just too good a price to pass up on Phoenix. Los Angeles will be without Anthony Davis and he's the one guy outside of LeBron they couldn't afford to lose. He's not only a huge loss offensively, but defensively too. Chris Paul and the Suns know now is the time to strike at home with the Lakers at less than 100%. Play Phoenix -4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -7½ -107

The 76ers (-7.5) are worth a look as a big road favorite in Game 4 against the Wizards on Monday. This thing is over with. Washington has no answer for Philadelphia and I don't see them finding one with Russell Westbrook at less than 100%. Washington just doesn't matchup well. 76ers have scored at least 120 in all 3 games so far in the series and are shooting 54.5% from the field. Play Philadelphia -7.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns +7 -102

The Suns (+7) is worth a look as a decent sized road dog against the Lakers in Sunday's NBA action. Phoenix won Game 1, but has lost the last two. Not surprised to see LA respond with back-to-back wins to take back control of the series, but this feels like the spot for Phoenix to bounce back and at least make a game of it. You also have to factor in Anthony Davis being at less than 100% with a knee injury. Give me the Suns +7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Heat +5 -105

The Heat (+5) are worth a look as a home dog in Game 4 against the Bucks. I think most have written Miami off. So have I. They got not chance of coming back from a 3-0 deficit. With that said, I don't think this team goes down without a fight. They got to start making shots at some point. Will be interesting to see how the Bucks respond to losing starting guard Donte DiVincenzo. Perfect spot for Milwaukee to come out fat and happy and lose a game they shouldn't. Play the Heat +5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -7 -108

The Nets (-7) are worth a look as a decently priced road favorite against the Celtics in Friday's NBA playoff action. Brooklyn played poorly and won Game 1 by double-digits. They absolutely dominated in Game 2. I just don't think Boston has the goods without Brown to win a game in this series. With the Nets defense on Tatum, they got to have everything go right just to keep it respectable. Brooklyn is just too good. Play the Nets -7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards +8½ -106

The Wizards (+8.5) are worth a look as a near double-digit road dog in Game 2 Wednesday against the 76ers. Washington lost Game 1 by only 7 points 118-125 and keep in mind that was with the Wizards only on a couple days of rest after clinching the No. 8 seed with a win over the Pacers. Washington actually out shot the 76ers in Game 1, as they hit 56% from the field compared to Philly's 49.5%. If the Wizards can just take a little better care of the ball, they could win this game outright. Play Washington +8.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs +6½ -107

The Mavs (+6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced road dog against the Clippers in Game 2. This is a great price to get Dallas at. The Mavs showed they more than match up with LA after taking Game 1 by double-digits 113-103. I'm not saying Dallas is going up 2-0, but to think it's just going to be a blowout the other way is wrong. Mavs at worse keep this thing close. Play Dallas +6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -4½ -104

The Bucks (-4.5) are worth a look here as small home favorite against the Heat in Game 2 of their First Round matchup on Monday. Milwaukee won Game 1 109-107 in OT. I think the Bucks are going to be a little more locked in after nearly losing the series opener. As for Miami, I think they could have a hard time bouncing back from such a gut wrenching loss. Give me the Bucks -4.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs vs Clippers over 218½ +101

The OVER (218.5) is worth a look in Game 1 of Saturday's Western Conference Playoff action. While the defensive intensity definitely picks up in the postseason, the total here is just too low for the offensive talent on hand in this game. The Clippers are No. 2 in the NBA in offensive efficiency and the Mavs are 9th. This total should be closer 225 than 215. Play the OVER 218.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies vs Warriors over 220½ -110

The OVER (220.5) is worth a look in Friday's Western Conference Play-In matchup between the Warriors and Grizzlies. I just think the total here is too low. Golden State doesn't match up as well defensively with Memphis as they did the Lakers. Grizzlies are also no where close to as strong defensively as what the Warriors just saw in LA. Play the OVER 220.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Pacers vs Wizards under 239½ -110

The UNDER (239.5) is worth a look in Thursday's play-in matchup out of the Eastern Conference between the Wizards and Pacers for the right to the No. 8 seed and first round matchup with the 76ers. Too much emphasis here on what these two teams have done in the regular-season and Indiana going crazy with 144 points in Tuesday's game against the Hornets. Washington is a better defensive team than the numbers show. This total is just too high for this winner takes all matchup. Play the UNDER 239.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors +5 -114

The Warriors (+5) are worth a look as a small dog against the Lakers in Wednesday's NBA Play-In matchup. Most are going to just back the Lakers in this spot, but with how well Steph Curry is playing and LeBron James at less than 100% with that bum ankle, Golden State can win this game. Either way I like them to keep it extremely close. Play the Warriors +5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Hornets +3½ -109

The Hornets (+3.5) are worth a look as a small road dog against the Pacers in Tuesday's 9/10 Play-In matchup. I just don't trust this Pacers team given the injuries they were dealt. The biggest loss being big man Myles Turner. They also could be without Malcolm Brogdon, while several others are expected to play at less than full strength. Hornets simply have the deeper and more talented team. Play Charlotte +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Wolves -1½ -110

The Timberwolves (-1.5) are worth a look here as a small home favorite against the Celtics. There's zero motivation here for Boston, who is locked into the No. 7 seed. All the Celtics focus is on getting their key guys rested up for the play-in tournament next week. T-Wolves should be a much bigger favorite here. Play Minnesota -1.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets -9½ -110

The Nuggets (-9.5) are worth a look here as a big road favorite against the Pistons in Friday's NBA action. Denver is the only team with something to play for here, as they are just 1-game back of the Clippers for the No. 3 spot in the Western Conference. Pistons are way out of it. Detroit is 2-9 SU and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games, having lost and failed to cover each of their last 3. Play the Nuggets -9.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards +7 -110

The Wizards(+7) are worth a look here as a decently priced road dog against the Hawks in Wednesday's NBA action. Washington may be without Beal, but they didn't have him on Monday when they covered easy as a 8-point dog in a mere 1-point loss to these same Hawks. I not only think the Wizards cover, but I think they win this one outright. Play Washington +7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bulls +5½ -110

The Bulls (+5.5) are worth a look here as a relatively small home dog against the Nets in Tuesday's NBA action. Betting public is going to be all over Brooklyn in this one, but I see the value being with Chicago. The Bulls are fighting for their playoff lives and playing with some serious confidence. Chicago has won and covered each of their last 3 games, winning all 3 by double-digits. Nets are the better team, but it just feels like Brooklyn is looking ahead to the postseason and not all that interested in these last few games. Play the Bulls +5.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Pacers -6 -110

The Pacers (-6) are worth a look as a modest road favorite against the Cavs. Indiana has had their struggles in the 2nd Half, but this is not only a mismatch in talent but also motivation. Pacers are clinging on to the 10th and final spot in the Eastern Conference. Cleveland threw in the towel on this season a long time ago and have shown no interest in competing down the stretch. Indiana should roll to a double-digit win here. Play the Pacers -6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks -6½ -110

The Hawks (-6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced home favorite against the Wizards. Washington has been on an incredible run, but this looks like an awful spot for Washington. The Wizards will not only be playing this one without Bradley Beal, this will be their 4th road game in 6 days. Atlanta on the other hand is as fresh as any team off a full 3 days of rest. Hawks still have plenty to play for, as they fight for the No. 4 seed. Play the Hawks -6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Kings -9½ -110

The Kings (-9.5) are worth a look here as a big home favorite against the Thunder in Sunday's NBA action. Laying a big number like this on a team like the Kings who are out of the playoff picture can be difficult. The thing is, OKC is just that bad. Thunder have scored fewer than 100 points in 5 of their last 6. Kings have allowed under 100 in 3 of their last 4. OKC is also giving up 126.4 ppg over their last 5. Time for the Kings to have some fun and win this game going away. Play Sacramento -9.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Clippers -7½ -110

The Clippers (-7.5) are worth a look as a home favorite against the Lakers in Thursday's NBA action. With LeBron downgraded to out, the Lakers are in a really tough spot here. Not only are they missing LeBron, but Dennis Schroder is also out and Horton-Tucker is questionable. There's plenty of motivation for the Clippers to take advantage of the short-handed Lakers. That's because the Lakers sit tied with the Mavs for 5th place. Clippers are currently 4th. A win could increase the chances that the Clippers won't have to play the Lakers in the 1st round. It also could play a role in moving the Lakers down to No. 7 and into the play-in tournament. Play the Clippers -7.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -1½ -112

The Suns (-1.5) are worth a look here at basically a pick'em on the road against the Hawks. Phoenix might be on no rest after playing an OT game last night at Cleveland, but I think that's been baked into the number. This is still an exceptional price to get the Suns. They are easily the better team and every win is huge to them, as they fight for the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference. Play the Suns -1.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets +2 -110

The Nets (+2) are worth a look here as a small road dog against the Nets in Tuesday's NBA action. Brooklyn should be locked in here after two straight losses, including a loss to these same Bucks in Milwaukee on Sunday. A game they just barely loss 114-117, despite only shooting 43% and the Bucks shooting 49%. Nets get their revenge and win this one easy. Play Brooklyn +2! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies -2½ -112

The Grizzlies (-2.5) are worth a look here as a slim home favorite against the Knicks in Monday's NBA action. Knicks have been great for weeks now, but I believe it has them overvalued here against a Grizzlies team that has also been on a late season surge. I also think it's a really good spot to back Memphis coming off that ugly loss to Orlando, where they just didn't show up with the right mindset or energy. Grizzlies will be 100% locked in for this one, as they need every win they can get down the stretch to make the playoffs. Play the Grizzlies -2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Knicks -8 -110

The Knicks (-8) are worth a look here as a decently priced road favorite against Houston. The Rockets are in a complete free fall, while New York is playing as well as any team in the league right now. I just don't see Houston keeping this one close, as they are on no rest after a game last night against Golden State. Knicks on the other hand have had the last three days off. Play New York -8! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Blazers +2½ -109

The Blazers (+2.5) are worth a look here as a small road dog against the Grizzlies in Wednesday's NBA action. Portland got the monkey off their back, snapping their 5-game losing streak with a 133-112 win at Indiana last night. Most will look to fade the Blazers here on no rest against a good Memphis team, but I see Portland building off that win and taking down the Grizzlies tonight. Play the Blazers +2.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors -0½ -110

I'm going to take the Warriors (-0.5) as a slim home favorite against the Mavs in Tuesday's NBA action. This is just too good a price to pass up on Golden State at home. Steph Curry has put this team on his back with some of his best basketball of his career. Warriors have won 7 of their last 9 with 4 in a row at home. Mavs just aren't playing great basketball right now. Play the Warriors -0.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Knicks +2 -110

The Knicks (+2) are worth a look as a home dog against the Suns in Monday's NBA action. This isn't about New York being the better team, but there's no reason the Knicks should be a dog at home in this spot. Not with how well they are playing right now. Especially not with the Suns being in their 5th straight road game on no rest after playing the Nets last night, which followed 3 huge games at Milwaukee, Philly and Boston. Phoenix has to be running on fumes right now. Play the Knicks +2! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics vs Hornets under 216½ -109

The UNDER (216.5) is worth a look in Sunday's NBA matchup that has the Celtics visiting the Hornets. I just don't see either team having a lot of energy for this game. Boston just played a back-to-back where they hosted the Suns on Thursday and were at the Nets on Friday. Charlotte has really been lost offensively without Hayward, Monk and Ball. Play the UNDER 216.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics +6½ -114

The Celtics (+6.5) are worth a look here as a home dog against the Suns in Thursday's NBA action. Good spot here to fade the Suns, who have to be running on fumes after a 128-127 win at Milwaukee on Monday and 116-113 win at the 76ers last night. Boston does come in off an ugly home loss to the Bulls, but had won 6 straight prior to that setback. This is just too many points for the Celtics to be catching at home in this spot. Play Boston +6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors -2 -105

The Warriors (-2) are worth a look here as a slim road favorite against the Wizards. Both teams come in playing great, but I just think Golden State is without a doubt the better team and the Warriors are going to want revenge from a recent 107-110 home loss to Washington. Steph Curry is also on fire right now. As long as he's playing like he is, the Warriors should continue to play well. Play the Warriors -2! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Clippers -8½ -110

The Clippers (-8.5) are worth a look as a big home road favorite against the Blazers in Tuesday's NBA action. With LA playing arguably their best basketball of the season right now and Portland playing this game not only without the services of Damian Lillard, but also Jusuf Nurkic, I don't see the Blazers being able to keep this close. Play the Clippers -8.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies +6½ -110

The Grizzlies (+6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced road dog against the Nuggets in Monday's NBA action. I don't know what the Grizzlies have to do to get some respect from the books. Memphis has covered 4 straight and are a ridiculous 14-3 ATS in their last 17 games. Denver has been playing well, but this is just too many points for them to be laying here. Play Memphis +6.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Suns +3½ -109

The Suns (+3.5) are worth a look here as a small road dog against the Bucks in Monday's NBA action. Books are begging for you to lay the short number with Milwaukee, especially with Phoenix coming off an ugly 85-111 loss at home to the Spurs as a 12-point favorite. Thing is, that's just one bad game for the Suns, who are 14-3 SU in their last 17 games. Phoenix will be locked back in for this game. Suns are 10-2 ATS last 12 off an upset loss as a favorite and 16-4 in their last 20 off a game they failed to cover. Play Phoenix +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -6 -110

The Nets (-6) are worth a look on the road against the Heat in Sunday's NBA action. These two teams played once already this season and Brooklyn won 98-85 in a defensive battle. With Durant and Irving available for this one, I don't see the Heat putting up much of a fight, especially if Jimmy Butler (Questionable) is unable to play. Miami also comes in not playing great, as they have lost 3 straight, failing to cover all 3. Play the Nets -6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Blazers -1½ -105

The Blazers (-1.5) are worth a look as a small road favorite against the Spurs in Friday's NBA action. I think we are getting a great price here on Portland due to the fact that they come in having lost 4 of 5. I just trust the Blazers to figure this out and it's not like San Antonio is playing great. Spurs are just 2-6 over their last 8 games and just lost outright as a 5-point favorite at Toronto, who was missing several key players. Play the Blazers -1.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs -1½ -105

The Mavs (-1.5) are worth a look here at basically a pick'em on the road against the Grizzlies in Wednesday's NBA action. Dallas will be highly motivated here after losing their last two and I think they will have no problem securing a victory against Memphis. Mavs are 18-6 ATS in this spot as a road favorite of 6 or less. They are also 30-18 ATS last 48 on the road with a total of 220 or more more. Play the OVER -1.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Heat +3½ -100

The Heat (+3.5) are worth a look here as a small road dog against the Suns in Tuesday's NBA action. Miami is playing some of their best basketball of the season right now. The Heat have won two straight and 6 of 7 overall. While Phoenix has been rolling, this is not an ideal spot for them, as they will be on no rest, playing their 3rd game in 4 nights and 5th in the last 7 days. Play the Heat +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Magic +6 -110

The Magic (+6) are worth a look as a home dog against the Spurs in Monday's NBA action. I think we are getting some good value here on Orlando, as they should be highly motivated after getting embarrassed last time out 124-87 at home by the Bucks. On the flip side, San Antonio is primed for a letdown after a hard fought win at Dallas last night. Play the Magic +6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bulls -4½ -105

The Bulls (-4.5) are worth a look here as a slim road favorite against the Timberwolves in Sunday's NBA action. Chicago comes in off a loss and failed cover in a 108-120 setback at Atlanta on Friday. That was just a mere hiccup in the road for this Bulls team, which had gone 3-2 SU and 5-0 ATS in their previous 5 games. Minnesota has lost 4 of 5 and have allowed 140+ points in each of their last 2 games. Timberwolves could have a tough time getting up here with their next 3 games against the Nets, Bucks and Heat. Play Chicago -4.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors -4½ -105

The Warriors (-4.5) are worth a look as a short home favorite against the Wizards in Friday's NBA action. With Steph Curry back healthy, the Warriors are primed to go on a little run and no better way to start a winning streak than to knock off the Bucks at home in their last game. Washington also comes in off a 131-116 win, but that was against a tanking Magic team. Wizards had lost 4 straight prior to that win. I also think this is a big flat spot for Washington playing their 3rd straight on the road going from two games in Florida against the Raptors and Magic to flying way out west for a game at Golden State. Play the Warriors -4.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Knicks +2 -109

The Knicks (+2) are worth a look as a small home dog against the Grizzlies in Friday's NBA action. This line screams take Memphis. The Grizzlies come in having won 4 straight and are on a ridiculous 10-1 ATS run. Books clearly don't think Memphis is going to show up with their "A" Game in this one and I agree. This is a tough spot for the Grizzlies in what will be the final stop on their 4-game road trip and a big step down in competition after playing the 76ers, Heat and Hawks the last 3. Knicks are just 1-5 SU in their last 6, but have covered 3 straight. Play New York +2! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Thunder +4½ -100

The Thunder (+4.5) are worth a look here as a short home dog against the Hornets in Wednesday's NBA action. I know it's been rough for OKC of late, but this is a game they could and should win against a depleted Charlotte team that is playing right now without Gordon Hayward, Malik Monk and star rookie LaMelo Ball. In their last game the Hornets lost by 30 on the road to the Celtics. Hard to see a big improvement given the injuries and this being their 5th straight on the road. Play the Thunder +4.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies +4½ -100

The Grizzlies (+4.5) are worth a look as a road dog against the Heat in Tuesday's NBA action. While Miami has won and covered 4 straight, the level of competition during this stretch was not that challenging. Heat were also showing some value in those games as they had previously lost 6 straight. I just think the price here is a little steep for Miami given how well Memphis is playing. The Grizzlies are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games. While they are just 5-3 SU in his stretch, all 3 losses came against the league's best team in the Jazz. Play Memphis +4.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Baylor +4½ -108

Baylor (+4.5) is worth a look in Monday's National Championship Game against Gonzaga. I not only think the Bears cover the 4.5, but I like them to win the game outright. We saw Gonzaga really struggle against UCLA in the Final Four and the Bears are a much better version of the Bruins. Unlike UCLA, who really relied a ton on one guy, Baylor has a bunch of guys who can cause problems offensively. Play the Bears +4.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Kings -4 -105

The Kings (-4) are worth a look here as a short home favorite against the Lakers in Friday's NBA action. It's crazy how much respect the Lakers get playing without both LeBron James and Anthony Davis. No surprise that the way overpriced Lakers have gone just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games. I think they should be a much bigger dog here against a surging Kings team that has gone 7-2 SU and 6-3 ATS over their last 9 games. Play Sacramento -4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies -6½ -105

The Grizzlies (-6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced home favorite against the Timberwolves in Friday's NBA action. Memphis has lost 3 of 4, but all 3 of those defeats came against the Jazz, who own the best record in the league. Those are the Grizzlies only 3 losses in their last 7 games and they are 6-1 ATS during this stretch. Look for Memphis to make easy work here of a bad Minnesota team. Play the Grizzlies -6.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Lakers +8½ -105

The Lakers (+8.5) are worth a look as a big home dog against the Bucks. The perception here is that LA has no shot against a team like Milwaukee while LeBron and AD are both sidelined. Thing is the Bucks aren't playing that great right now. Milwaukee has lost 3 straight. They are also playing their 4th game in 6 days and second straight on the road. LA will also be getting some reinforcements for this game, as big man Andre Drummond will be making his debut. I don't know if it's enough to win, but I like them to keep it close. Play the Lakers +8.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Wolves +3½ -105

The Timberwolves (+3.5) are worth a look as a home dog against the Knicks in Wednesday's NBA action. I know Minnesota has lost 5 of their last 6, but this is a team that has been playing much better since the All-Star break. I also think the Knicks got no business being a road favorite with the way they are struggling to score the basketball. New York has scored 106 or fewer points in 6 of their last 7 games, which is truly awful in this day and age of the NBA. Play the Timberwolves +3.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -7½ -105

The Jazz (-7.5) are worth a look as a road favorite against Memphis in Wednesday's NBA action. Utah is going to be without Donovan Mitchell for this game, but I don't think it's going to stop them from winning this by double-digits. Utah has led by 20 or more points in each of their last 5 games. They also look to be catching Memphis a little short-handed. Grizzlies won't have Justise Winslow and good chance they will also be without Grayson Allen. Play the Jazz -7.5

20* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets -4½ -107

The Nuggets (-4.5) are worth a look as a slim home favorite against the 76ers. Denver crushed the Hawks 126-102 in the debut of Aaron Gordon. He's a really good fit on this team and can really impact the game right away without having to score a ton. As for Philadelphia, they are in a tough spot here. The 76ers are still without Embiid and are playing their 5th straight on the road. A trip that started in New York before flying out west. Play Denver -4.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on USC vs Gonzaga under 154½ -110

The UNDER (154.5) is worth a look in Tuesday's Elite 8 matchup between Gonzaga and USC. These two have both been impressive offensively in the NCAA Tournament. In USC's 3 games they are averaging 79.7 ppg and Gonzaga is way up there at 89.3 ppg. It will have a lot a people looking to take the over. What people are overlooking is how good these two teams have been defensively. Both have held each of their 3 opponents under 70 points. Both rank in the Top 10 in the country in defensive efficiency and few teams make their opponents work harder to get a shot than USC. Their opponents average poss length is 18.3, which is the 338th longest mark (out of 357 teams). Play the UNDER 154.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Baylor -7 -107

Baylor (-7) is worth a look in Monday's Elite 8 matchup against Arkansas. It's been a great run for the Razorbacks, but it's not exactly been the toughest road to the Elite 8 with wins over Colgate, Texas Tech and Oral Roberts. Baylor is simply on a different level than Arkansas. We just saw the Bears beat in a better team than Arkansas in Villanova by 11 in their last game. I look for Baylor to easily win here by double-digits. Play Baylor -7! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Raptors vs Pistons under 219 -109

The UNDER (219) is worth a look in Monday's NBA action that has the Raptors visiting the Pistons. Detroit is a huge UNDER team with their lackluster offense, which has really been struggling of late. Pistons are averaging a mere 102.6 ppg over their last 5 and are shooting just 44% from the field during this stretch. Because they play at a slow pace, they also don't give up a lot of points. With Toronto not figuring to be pushing the tempo in the 2nd of a back-to-back and 3rd game in 4 days, this should stay well below the mark. Play the UNDER 219! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics -4 -104

The Celtics (-4) are worth a look as a slim home favorite against the Pelicans in Monday's NBA action. I know there's a couple key guys in question for Boston, but this is just too good a price to pass up. New Orleans has been playing well here of late, but they are just 6-14 SU on the road this season and are a mere 4-11-2 ATS last 17 road games vs a team that's won more than 60% of their home games. Play Boston -4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Louisiana Tech +1 -108

Bet Louisiana Tech (+1) in Sunday's NIT Consolation (3rd Place Game) matchup with Colorado State. Colorado State won their first two games in the NIT Buffalo and NC State, but were then annihilated by 23 to Memphis in the Semifinals. It didn't go much better for La Tech, who lost by 22 to Mississippi St. I just see the Rams as the bigger frauds in this showdown. The MWC has really looked poor in postseason play. Bet the Bulldogs +1! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -6 -105

Bet the Suns (-6) at home against the Hornets on Sunday. Phoenix might be the most underrated/disrespected team in the league right now. The Suns are 22-6 SU over their last 28 games. A team playing this well should be overvalued and struggling to cover inflated lines, but that's not the case. Phoenix is the exact same 22-6 ATS during this run. Charlotte has won and covered 3 straight, but will struggle to keep playing with rookie LaMelo Ball sidelined. Bet the Suns -6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -10 -105

This play is on the Utah Jazz (-10) at home against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Jazz failed to cover at home last night against these Grizzlies, winning by a final of 117-114 as a very similarly priced favorite. Utah was up 16 at the half in that game and just didn't come out very strong in the 2nd half. They are still 15-5 ATS at home this season and have covered 9 of their last 10 at home against teams who shoot 46% or better from the field. Play the Jazz -10! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Memphis vs Colorado State under 143½ -108

The UNDER (143.5) is worth a look in Saturday's NIT Semifinal showdown between Memphis and Colorado State. The UNDER is 8-2 in Memphis' last 10 games and 11-4 in 15 road games this season. UNDER is also 8-2 in Colorado State's last 10 games.  These two teams scoring averages are 71.5 and 74.3, which is 145.8 ppg, just past the number. However, defensively they give up 62.5 and 65.6, which is just 127.8 ppg. Play the UNDER 143.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies vs Jazz over 227½ +103

The OVER (227.5) is worth a look in Friday's NBA action between the Jazz and Grizzlies. Two really good offenses facing off in this one and I just feel they will have no problem reaching 230 points in this game. Memphis is averaging 114.9 ppg on the road, while Utah is scoring 117.8 ppg at home. Utah has scored at least 115 points in each of their last 6 games and 10 of their last 11. Grizzlies have scored 111 or more in each of their last 3. Play the OVER 227.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -9½ -109

The Jazz (-9.5) are worth a as a big home favorite against the Grizzlies in Friday's NBA action. Utah should have no problem winning this game by double-digits. In their last two games the Jazz have made easy work of Chicago and Brooklyn. They took down the Bulls 120-95 and the Nets 118-88. We know when this team gets going they can be almost unstoppable. Grizzlies won't be able to keep pace. Play the Jazz -9.5!
