20* SHARP PLAY on Nets vs Spurs under

Bet the UNDER (235) in Tuesday's NBA action between the Spurs and Nets. This to me is just too high a total with Kevin Durant sidelined for Brooklyn. The Nets have scored fewer than 110 points in each of their last 4 games and in the first two games without Durant they managed just 98 at home vs the Celtics and 102 at home vs OKC. I know the Spurs defense is maybe the worst in the league, but Brooklyn could score 120 in this game and these two still could struggle to get to 235. Nets are a good defensive team. They have held 7 of their last 8 opponents to 112 or fewer points. I think this total is a good 5-7 points too high. Play the UNDER 235!

20* SHARP PLAY on Blazers

Bet the Blazers (-1.5) as a small home favorite against the Mavs in Saturday's NBA action. This is a play against Dallas coming off of Thursday's 2OT win against the Lakers. You could see the fatigue set in for both of those teams in the second OT period. Mavs did get yesterday off, but I don't think that's enough time to recover, not with them in the middle of a road trip. Dallas will be playing their 4th straight on the road. They also got to think about limiting minutes with these two teams set to turn around and play each other again on Sunday. Blazers have been painfully close to getting this thing back on track. This couldn't be a better spot for them to get the ball rolling. Play the Blazers -1.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors

Bet the Warriors (-8) as a big road favorite against the Spurs in Friday's NBA action. I like Golden State to make easy work of San Antonio in this one. Warriors should be highly motivated to play well after losing their last 3, all as home favorites of 6.5 or more. You might be thinking, how do we trust this team on the road laying this kind of number? That's just how much of an advantage they have on this Spurs team, especially with Golden State being fresh having the last two days off. Play the Warriors -8! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Pacers

Bet the Pacers (+3) as a small home dog against the Hawks in Friday's NBA action. Indiana has been hit hard with the injury bug coming into this game. Arguably their best player, Tyrese Haliburton is out at least a couple of weeks. Myles Turner, Aaron Nesmith and Oshae Brissett are all questionable to play. I still think this Pacers team has enough talent to win at home against a Hawks team that isn't exactly lighting it up. Atlanta is just 2-6 SU in their last 8 games and a mere 8-13 SU on the road this season. Pacers are 15-7 SU at home this year. Indiana scores 118.5 ppg at home and Hawks allow 118.9 ppg on the road. Play Indiana +3!

20* SHARP PLAY on Cavs -3 -110

Bet the Cavs (-3) as a slim road favorite against the Jazz in Tuesday's NBA action. This to me is just too good a price to pass up on with Cleveland. Cavs come in having won 4 of their last 5 with the only loss coming at Denver. Utah on the other hand is in a complete free-fall after their strong start to the season. Jazz are just 3-9 SU over their last 12 games. Utah will have the homecourt edge, but will be playing their 3rd game in 4 nights, as they were at Chicago on Saturday and then at Memphis on Sunday. Cavs are one of the best defensive teams in the league. Utah has given up 114 or more points in 6 straight and 110 or more in 13 straight. Play the Cavs -3! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nebraska +3½ -110

*All CBB picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

15* SHARP PLAY on Thunder +4½ -110

Bet the Thunder (+4.5) as a small road dog against the Heat in Tuesday's NBA action. Just when it feels like Miami is starting to get this thing turned around, the injury bug comes back to bite them. Kyle Lowry has been ruled out for this game with a knee injury and Duncan Robinson is out with a finger injury. Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro are both listed as questionable. Heat are just 6-13 ATS at home this season and 4-12 ATS last 16 as a home favorite. OKC is 20-10 ATS as a dog this season, 18-6 ATS last 2 seasons in road non-conference games and 8-0 ATS last 8 when revenging a loss by 3-points or less (lost 108-110 at home to Miami back on Dec. 14). Play OKC +4.5!

*All CBB picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Lakers +9½ -115

Bet the Lakers (+9.5) as a big road dog against the Nuggets in Monday's NBA action. LA is playing to well right now to be catching close to double-digits. Lakers have won and covered each of their last 5 games. All 5 of those coming as underdogs, with 3 of those as dogs of 6.5 or more. Nuggets won the first meeting in the series, but LA has came back and won the last two by double-digits. Denver comes in off two big wins and covers at home vs the Clippers and Cavs, but are just 2-13 ATS over the last 3 seasons off back-to-back wins by 10 or more. Play the Lakers +9.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on New Mexico -4½ -110

*All CBB picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Clippers -4 -105

Bet the Clippers (-4) as a small home favorite against the Hawks in Sunday's NBA action. This to me is a good spot to jump on LA, despite the fact that they come in having lost 5 straight. Clippers should have all their key guys on the floor for this one and their rough stretch can be attributed more to playing 4 of their last 5 games on the road. Atlanta has lost 5 of their last 6 and have to be a little worn down going into this one with it being their 4th straight on the road on the west coast. Atlanta is just 8-19 ATS last 27 on the road after playing each of their previous two games on the road and just 12-27 as a road dog over the last 2 seasons. Play the Clippers -4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Manhattan +3 -110

*All CBB picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Lakers +9 -110

Bet the Lakers (+9) as a 9-point road dog against the Kings in Saturday's NBA action. I get LA is playing on no rest on the road, but it's not like it was a long trip to Sacramento. Lakers clearly seem to be motivated to make a run for a playoff spot as they have won 4 straight. Books have been slow to adjust, as the Lakers are 4-0 ATS during this win streak. Just last night they were a 3-point dog at home against the Hawks and won the game 130-114. No way should be getting anything close to double-digits. Play the Lakers +9! 

20* SHARP PLAY on San Jose State +2 -110

*All CBB picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

15* SHARP PLAY on Pelicans +4½ -110

Bet the Pelicans (+4.5) as a small home dog against the Nets in Friday's NBA action. Brooklyn just lost at Chicago in a very similar spot, losing 112-121 as a 5-point road favorite. This might seem like a short number for Brooklyn to be laying given they had won 12 straight prior to the loss to the Bulls and New Orleans is without two of their best players in Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram. Pelicans are a deeper team than they get credit for and I think playing at home will give them enough of a boost to win this game outright. Always tough to bounce back from a loss after a long winning streak and there's some regression coming for Brooklyn. Play the Pelicans +4.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Raptors -3 -106

Bet the Raptors (-3) as a small home favorite against the Knicks in Friday's NBA action. Good time to buy low on Toronto, who is just 3-10 over their last 13 games and sell-high on the Knicks, who have won 3 straight. Raptors struggles have come as a result of an absolutely loaded schedule. Quite possibly the toughest stretch of games they will have bunched together all season. This team is hungry for a win. Knicks 3-game win streak have come against the Spurs, a struggling Suns team and the Rockets. Prior to that New York had lost 5 straight and are playing without one of their best players in Barrett. Play the Raptors -3! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Blazers vs Pacers over 231½ -110

Bet the OVER (231.5) in Friday's NBA action between the Pacers and Blazers. No need to overthink this one. Indiana is a big time OVER team right now. Pacers are lighting it up offensively, scoring 128.6 ppg over their last 5. Indiana is a much deeper team than people give them credit for. The scoring does not dip when the reserves come in. Pacers are also very bad defensively, allowing 122.6 ppg in their last 5. This is a Blazers team than can go score for score with a team like Indiana. Play the OVER 231.5!

Bet the Grizzlies (+6.5) as a decently priced road favorite against the Hornets in Wednesday's NBA action. Memphis is rolling into this matchup against a struggling Charlotte team and I don't see them having any problem winning and covering this number. Grizzlies are 11-4 SU and 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games. Hornets are just 3-13 SU in their last 16 games and 4-9 ATS in their last 13 (1-4 ATS L5). Hornets just don't play enough defense to contain Morant and this Grizzlies offense and Memphis is too good defensively for them to keep pace. Play the Grizzlies -6.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards +8½ -115

Bet the Wizards (+8.5) as a big road dog against the Bucks in Tuesday's NBA action. Washington is rolling coming into this game. The Wizards have won 5 in a row and have gone 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games. They won in Milwaukee Sunday 118-95. Sure they did so with Milwaukee missing some key pieces, but they were a 2.5-point dog in that game. Bucks are just 1-5 SU and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games. I just feel that Washington is playing too well to be getting this many points, even on the road against a team playing with revenge. Bet the Wizards +8.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Raptors +3 -110

Bet the Raptors (+3) as a short road dog against the Pacers in Monday's NBA action. Toronto snapped a 2-game skid with a 113-104 win at home over Phoenix on Friday. Raptors have now covered 4 of their last 6 and I like them to carry over that momentum with a win here. Pacers have won and covered 5 of their last 6, but were a dog in all of those games. I just think Indiana has caught some teams overlooking them and they are too good of a team to not take seriously. Toronto won't be overlooking them, as they need to keep this going with a 16-20 record overall. Books are begging you to take Indiana in this one. We will go the other way. Play the Raptors +3!

20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers +2½ -110

Bet the 76ers (+2.5) as a small road dog against the Pelicans in Friday's NBA action. Philly did lose last time out at Washington, but overall this team is playing some of its best basketball of the season right now. 76ers are 8-1 SU in their last 9 games having gone 7-2 ATS during this stretch. New Orleans does bring a 4-game winning streak into this matchup, but it's come against a soft schedule with wins over the Spurs, Thunder, Pacers and Timberwolves. Pelicans had lost 4 straight prior to this run. The line here also screams to take the Pelicans as a short home favorite, which only makes me like Philly that much more. Play the 76ers +2.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Wolves +7½ -115

Bet the Timberwolves (+7.5) as a decently priced road dog against the Pelicans in Wednesday's NBA action. With Minnesota having lost 3 in a row and New Orleans on a 3-game winning streak, I believe we are seeing an inflated line on the Pelicans in this one. While Zion is expected to be on the floor, he's likely going to be on a minutes restriction as he works himself back in shape. New Orleans is still without Brandon Ingram and Herb Jones is listed as questionable. Despite the losses racking up, Minnesota has continued to shoot the ball well, hitting 47% or better from the field in each of their last 6 games. Hard to put away a team by this many points when they put the ball in the basket roughly 50% of the time. Play the Timberwolves +7.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Lakers +4½ -110

Bet the Lakers (+4.5) as a short road dog against the Magic in Tuesday's NBA action. Most are going to want to be Orlando in this matchup. LA has lost 4 straight and failed to cover 5 in a row, while the Magic have won 8 of 9 and covered 10 straight. As good as Orlando has been playing, they should not be laying this many points against a hungry Lakers team. Magic are just 12-29 (29.3%) ATS over the last 3 seasons in home games when playing a team with a losing record. Bet the Lakers +4.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Hornets +6 -110

Bet the Hornets (+6) as a decently priced road dog against the Blazers in Monday's NBA action. Charlotte is a team that should be showing quite a bit of value right now. Hornets are just 9-24 on the season, but have played the majority of those 33 games with at least one of their top players sidelined. They are as healthy as they have been in a while with the only real significant contributor out being backup point guard Dennis Smith Jr. Doesn't hurt they are facing a Blazers team that has lost 3 in a row and 4 of 5 overall. Play the Hornets +6! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Bucks +4½ -110

Bet the Bucks (+4.5) as a short road dog against the Celtics on Sunday. Most are going to want to lay the short number with Boston in this one, but I like the points with Milwaukee. Bucks have had this game circled on the calendar for quite some time. It's their first shot at Boston since losing to them in the playoffs last year. Defensively I think Milwaukee has what it takes to slow down this Boston offense and this feels like a good time for the Bucks to catch the Celtics, given that Boston is just 2-5 SU over their last 7 games (1-5-1 ATS). Play Milwaukee +4.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -1½ -110

Bet the 76ers (-1.5) as a slim road favorite against the Knicks on Sunday. Philadelphia comes into this game having won 7 straight and are 6-1 ATS during this run. New York is 8-2 in their last 10, but have dropped each of their last two games. Both at home. The defensive effort just hasn't been there in the last two games. They forced a mere 4 turnovers in each of their last two games, which to me comes down to effort. In this game, I don't think they are going to have an answer for Embiid inside. I expect a monster game from Embiid, who seems to save his best for the big stage and there's not many bigger than Christmas Day at MSG. Just feel like the Knicks are getting a little too much respect in this one. Play the 76ers -1.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Washington State -3 -110

*All CBB picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns +3 -110

Bet the Suns (+3) as a small home dog against the Grizzlies in Friday's NBA action. Phoenix will be playing this game without Devin Booker, but even with him sidelined I don't think they should be a dog in this fight. Memphis will be playing their 3rd straight road game and have lost the first 2 games on their 4-game trip, falling 109-115 at OKC and 91-105 at Denver. Suns have covered 23 of their last 35 with a line of +3 to -3 and are 31-14 ATS in their last 45 off an upset loss as a favorite. Play Phoenix +3! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Spurs +7½ -115

Bet the Spurs (+7.5) as a decently priced road dog against the Magic in Friday's NBA action. I just think San Antonio this is too many points for a team like Orlando to be laying against any team in the league. Yes the Magic come in having won 7 of their last 8 and have covered 9 in a row, but only once during this stretch were they favored to win the game and that was by a mere 1-point in their last game at Houston. It's a lot harder for a bad team like the Magic to switch roles from the underdog to the big favorite and with a much-needed 3-day break after this game, I think we could see Orlando come out flat in this one. Play the Spurs +7.5!

Bet the Hornets (+10) as a double-digit road dog against the Kings in Monday's NBA action. Charlotte made headlines yesterday, giving up 40 points, 27 rebounds and 10 assists to Jokic. One of the greatest statlines ever seen with a triple-double. I just think it has Charlotte a bit undervalued here against the Kings. What people overlook is the fact that the Hornets only lost by a final of 115-119 with Jokic's historic performance. Hornets have quietly gotten healthier of late and should start being more competitive. Play Charlotte +10!

These two teams played each other in Boston on Friday and Orlando won that game 117-109 as a 13.5-point road dog. It was a big flat spot for the Celtics, who had just finished up a grueling 6-game road trip a couple days earlier. Look for Boston to bounce back in a big way and have their way with the Magic in the rematch. Bet the Celtics -9.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Pacers vs Cavs under 224 -110

Bet the UNDER (224) in Friday's NBA action between the Pacers and Cavs. Cleveland comes into this game off a dominant defensive showing in Wednesday's 105-90 win at Dallas. I expect another great effort on that side at home against Indiana. The average score in Cleveland home games this season is just 217.2 points/game. Largely due to the Cavs defense, which is giving up just 103.4 ppg at home. UNDER is 12-2 in Cleveland's last 14 home games after allowing 100 points or less in their last game and 8-1 in their last 9 after a game with a combined score of 205 or less. Play the UNDER 224! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Hornets -1½ +100

Bet the Hornets (-1.5) as a small home favorite against the Hawks in Friday's NBA action. Atlanta is just not playing good basketball right now. The Hawks come into this game having lost 5 of their last 6 with the only win coming by a mere 1-point at home against the Bulls. It doesn't help matters that the Hawks are playing right now without one of their best players in Dejounte Murray. The fact that a Hornets team that has lost 6 games is favored in this one says it all. Play Charlotte -1.5!

*All CBB picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Rockets +4½ -105

Bet the Rockets (+4.5) as a small home dog against the Heat in Thursday's NBA action. Miami doesn't deserve to be this big of a road favorite with how they have been playing. Heat have won their last 2 games, but one was a 87-82 win at Indiana and the other was a 110-108 win at OKC. Houston is playing with confidence right now. The Rockets have their last two, beating the Bucks and Suns at home. Houston has won 5 straight at home overall. The last loss being a 120-127 setback against the Warriors on 11/20. Play the Rockets +4.5!
