01-31-23 | Lakers v. Knicks UNDER 238 | Top | 129-123 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 27 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Lakers vs Knicks under Bet the UNDER (238) in Tuesday's NBA action between the Knicks and Lakers. There's going to be plenty of offense with how these two teams struggle defensively, but I just feel that the total here has been inflated to the point that there's now value on the UNDER. Knicks will be playing on 2 days of rest and that's key, as the UNDER has gone an impressive 17-4 in New York home games when they are playing on 2 days or more of rest the last 3 seasons. UNDER is also 5-1 in the Lakers last 6 off a SU loss, 8-3 in their last 11 overall and 7-3 in their last 10 vs a team with a winning record. Play the UNDER 238! |

01-30-23 | Wizards -5.5 v. Spurs | 127-106 | Win | 100 | 13 h 46 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Wizards Bet the Wizards (-5.5) as a small road favorite against the Spurs in Monday's NBA action. Washington is riding a 5-game winning streak, where they have covered the spread in all 5 games. This hot stretch has coincided with the Wizards getting healthy. I just don't feel they are being priced right here against a bad Spurs team that has lost 5 straight and 10 of their last 11. Of those 11 losses, 8 have come by more than 5 points, with the majority being blowouts. Just too low a number to pass up a play on San Antonio. Play the Spurs -5.5! |
|||||||
01-30-23 | Warriors -3.5 v. Thunder | Top | 128-120 | Win | 100 | 14 h 28 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors Bet the Warriors (-3.5) as a small road favorite against the Thunder in Monday's NBA action. Golden State has had their struggles on the road this year. Warriors are just 6-18 SU and 8-16 ATS away from home this season. I just feel that's being factored a little too much into this line. Some of that is the respect that OKC has gained over the last couple of weeks. Thunder are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games, going 8-3 SU during this run. Just feel like the Luguentz Dort loss is going to be a factor here tonight. Play the Warriors -3.5! |
|||||||
01-29-23 | Heat -5.5 v. Hornets | Top | 117-122 | Loss | -105 | 18 h 4 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Heat Bet the Heat (-5.5) as a short road favorite against the Hornets in Sunday's NBA action. Miami has been playing much better basketball in the 2nd half of the season. Heat are riding a 3-game winning streak and going back to the day after Christmas are 12-5 SU. Charlotte is off a win over the Bulls, but this is a team that can't get anything going consistently in the right direction. Hornets are just 9-18 ATS as a dog of 3.5 to 9.5 points this season and 7-15 ATS in home games. Miami should have no problem covering the number here. Play the Heat -5.5! |

01-23-23 | Hornets +8 v. Jazz | Top | 102-120 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 28 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Hornets Bet the Hornets (+8) as a big road dog against the Jazz in Monday's NBA action. I like the price with Charlotte in this one. Hornets come in off back to back road wins and covers. They beat the Rockets 122-117 as a 2.5-point favorite and the Hawks 122-118 as a 7.5-point dog. Utah had won 4 of 5, before a 106-117 loss at home to Brooklyn. Jazz have failed to cover in 20 of their last 53 against a team with a losing record and are just 7-15 ATS as a favorite this season. Play the Hornets +8.5! |

01-17-23 | Nets v. Spurs UNDER 235 | Top | 98-106 | Win | 100 | 12 h 27 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
01-14-23 | Mavs v. Blazers -1.5 | Top | 119-136 | Win | 100 | 26 h 24 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
01-13-23 | Warriors -8 v. Spurs | Top | 144-113 | Win | 100 | 12 h 17 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
01-13-23 | Hawks v. Pacers +3 | 113-111 | Win | 100 | 11 h 45 m | Show | |
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! |
|||||||
01-10-23 | Cavs -3 v. Jazz | Top | 114-116 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 6 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
01-10-23 | Thunder +4.5 v. Heat | 111-112 | Win | 100 | 12 h 5 m | Show | |
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! |
|||||||
01-09-23 | Lakers +9.5 v. Nuggets | Top | 109-122 | Loss | -115 | 23 h 45 m | Show |
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! |

01-08-23 | Hawks v. Clippers -4 | Top | 112-108 | Loss | -105 | 27 h 45 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
01-07-23 | Lakers +9 v. Kings | Top | 136-134 | Win | 100 | 14 h 6 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
01-06-23 | Nets v. Pelicans +4.5 | 108-102 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 15 m | Show | |
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! |
|||||||
01-06-23 | Knicks v. Raptors -3 | Top | 112-108 | Loss | -106 | 23 h 33 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
01-06-23 | Blazers v. Pacers OVER 231.5 | 99-108 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 25 m | Show | |
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! |

01-04-23 | Grizzlies -6.5 v. Hornets | Top | 131-107 | Win | 100 | 11 h 23 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies -6½ -115 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! |

01-03-23 | Wizards +8.5 v. Bucks | Top | 113-123 | Loss | -115 | 13 h 45 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
01-02-23 | Raptors +3 v. Pacers | Top | 114-122 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 45 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
12-30-22 | 76ers +2.5 v. Pelicans | Top | 116-127 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 15 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
12-28-22 | Wolves +7.5 v. Pelicans | Top | 118-119 | Win | 100 | 19 h 25 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
12-27-22 | Lakers +4.5 v. Magic | Top | 129-110 | Win | 100 | 14 h 8 m | Show |
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! |
|||||||
12-26-22 | Hornets +6 v. Blazers | 113-124 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 25 m | Show | |
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! |

12-25-22 | Bucks +4.5 v. Celtics | 118-139 | Loss | -110 | 33 h 4 m | Show | |
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! |
|||||||
12-25-22 | 76ers -1.5 v. Knicks | Top | 119-112 | Win | 100 | 29 h 55 m | Show |
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! |

12-23-22 | Grizzlies v. Suns +3 | Top | 125-100 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 6 m | Show |
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! |

12-19-22 | Hornets +10 v. Kings | Top | 125-119 | Win | 100 | 19 h 24 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Hornets +10 -110 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! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics -9½ -110 Bet the Celtics (-9.5) as a big home favorite against the Magic in Sunday's NBA action. 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! |

12-16-22 | Pacers v. Cavs UNDER 224 | Top | 112-118 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 55 m | Show |
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! |

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! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Thunder +3 -110 Bet the Thunder (+3) as a small home dog against the Heat in Wednesday's NBA action. Miami has been one of the more overrated teams in the league to start the season. Heat are just 13-15 SU and 9-18 ATS. OKC is just 11-16 SU, but are 16-11 ATS. Thunder come in having covered 5 of their last 7, while the Heat have failed to cover 4 of their last 5. Miami is just 5-13 ATS as a favorite this season and 2-10 ATS off a SU win.

20* SHARP PLAY on Raptors -4½ -115 Bet the Raptors (-4.5) as a home favorite against the Kings in Wednesday's NBA action. Sacramento just lost by 20-points at the 76ers last night. Kings are going to be playing on no rest, as they continue on their 6-game road trip. It will be the 3rd road game in 4 nights for Sacramento, who is just 1-3 SU and 1-3 ATS over their last 4 games. Toronto is coming in off an ugly 99-111 loss at Orlando on Sunday, which came two days after losing 109-113 at Orlando. I believe it's created value with the Raptors as they return home. Toronto is 13-3 ATS last 16 at home off an upset loss as a favorite, winning in this spot by over 10 ppg. Play the Raptors -4.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Kings +5½ -110 Bet the Kings (+5.5) as a decently priced road dog against the 76ers in Tuesday's NBA action. Love the value here with Sacramento. Philly is getting a ton of love due to the big numbers that Embiid is putting up, but let's not overreact to a couple huge offensive showings against the Lakers and Hornets. Prior to beating those two teams, they had lost 3 straight, falling by 28 at Cleveland, by 8 at Memphis and by 10 at Houston. Kings are coming off a 99-112 loss at New York, which was their worst offensive showing of the season. Prior to that Sacramento had gone 4-1 SU and 4-1 ATS. There's also a good chance they get back star point guard De'Aaron Fox from injury in this one. Play the Kings +5.5! |

12-12-22 | Wolves v. Blazers UNDER 233.5 | Top | 112-133 | Loss | -105 | 24 h 3 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Wolves vs Blazers under 233½ -105 Bet the UNDER (233.5) in Monday's NBA action between the Wolves and Blazers. UNDER is hitting at 65% (80-43) since 1996 in games where you have a total of 230 or more in a matchup of two division opponents and a team (Blazers) is coming off a home win scoring 110 or more. Other big thing is this being a rematch between these two teams, as they just played in Portland on Saturday. That game saw 242 points, but it took both teams shooting well over 50% from the field. Expect some regression, as these two defenses will be much better prepared. Play the UNDER 233.5! |

12-12-22 | Cavs v. Spurs UNDER 223.5 | 111-112 | Win | 100 | 14 h 37 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Cavs vs Spurs under 223½ -110 Bet the UNDER (223.5) in Monday's NBA action between the Cavaliers and Spurs. Not really a lot to think about here, as the books just have had not been able to set a good number on the total in Cleveland games. The UNDER has cashed in 8 straight games for the Cavs and 11 of their last 12 overall. I have a hard time seeing this getting into the 220s with the Spurs figuring to struggle to hit 100 points. SA is averaging just 107.6 ppg in their last 5 and will be facing a Cleveland defense that is only giving up 99.6 ppg in their last 5. Play the UNDER 223.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Magic +7 -105 Bet the Magic (+7) as a big home dog against the Raptors in Sunday's NBA action. Orlando just beat these Raptors 113-109 at home on Friday and now are getting 7-points in the rematch. I'll take it. Orland has covered 3 in a row, while the Raptors continue to be overvalued in the market. Toronto is just 6-10 ATS in their last 16 games. Play Orlando +7! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -1 -110 Bet the Suns (-1) as a slim road favorite against the Pelicans in Friday's NBA action. This to me is a great spot to jump on Phoenix after they were embarrassed on nationally TV in Wednesday's 98-125 loss at home to the Celtics. Suns got Chris Paul back from injury in that game and should be poised to take off with him back in the lineup. Pelicans are a really good team, but they are down two starters right now with Herb Jones and Brandon Ingram both sidelined. Play the Suns -1! |

12-09-22 | Pistons v. Grizzlies UNDER 227.5 | 103-114 | Win | 100 | 12 h 5 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Pistons vs Grizzlies under 227½ -105 Bet the UNDER (227.5) in Friday's NBA action between the Grizzlies and Pistons. I just don't see these two teams approaching 230 points. You need both teams to put up big numbers to reach a total like this and I just have a hard time seeing the Pistons doing their part. Detroit is just 3-12 SU on the road this season, scoring just 109 ppg on 44% shooting away from home. Memphis is only allowing 106.8 ppg at home and are giving up just 105.0 ppg on 42% shooting in their last 5 games. UNDER is 14-3 in Memphis' last 17 at home after 3 or more consecutive wins and a perfect 8-0 in their last 8 after winning 4/5 of their last 6 games. Play the UNDER 227.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Magic +8 -110 Bet the Magic (+8) as a decently priced home dog against the Raptors in Friday's NBA action. This is a good price to back Orlando at home. Magic are way undervalued right now, as they have gone just 1-9 SU in their last 10 games. They were able to snap a 9-game skid with a 116-111 win at home against the Clippers on Wednesday as a 6.5-point dog. Magic have covered 2 straight overall and are 3-1-1 ATS last 5 off a SU win. Toronto is just 2-6 ATS last 8 vs a team with a losing record and 1-6 ATS last 7 on the road. Play the Magic +8! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors vs Jazz under 239 -110 Bet the UNDER (239) in Wednesday's NBA action between the Jazz and Warriors. There's going to be plenty of offense in this matchup, but the number here is simply too high. I don't see these two getting into the 240s. Not with Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Andrew Wiggins all expected to not play in this game. UNDER has cashed in 3 straight games for the Warriors and is 5-1 in their last 6 off a loss. Play the UNDER 239! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Pacers +5½ -115 Bet the Pacers (+5.5) as a small road dog against the Jazz in Friday's NBA action. Utah comes in off a 125-112 win over the Clippers and Indiana enters off a 114-137 blowout loss to the Kings. Don't let those results fool you. Pacers have been playing the much better basketball of late. Indiana is 11-5 SU and 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games. The Jazz are 3-8 SU and 4-7 ATS in their last 11. This to me should be closer to a pick'em. Play the Pacers +5.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Knicks -4½ -105 Bet the Knicks (-4.5) as a short road favorite against the Pistons in Tuesday's NBA action. This just feels like a good buy low spot on New York, who comes in having lost their last 2 and are just 1-4 SU and ATS over their last 5 games. It's not like these have been horrible losses. The first two defeats came on the road against the Warriors and Suns. The last two have come at home to the Blazers and Grizzlies by a combined 7 points. I like the Knicks to get right here and make easy work of a bad Detroit team. Play New York -4.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -6½ -115 Bet the Suns (-6.5) as a decently priced home favorite against the Lakers in Tuesday's NBA action. Easy play here on Phoenix. LA is simply getting too much respect due to having won and covered 3 straight. I'm not buying this team has figured out anything. Two of those wins were against the Pistons and Spurs. The other was against a dead tired Nets team playing on no rest. Suns just have too much fire-power for the Lakers to keep this respectable. Play Phoenix -6.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Pacers -4½ -115 Bet the Pacers (-4.5) as a road favorite against the Rockets in Friday's NBA action. Easy play here on Indiana, who has been an absolute money-maker of late. The Pacers are 6-2 SU and a perfect 8-0 ATS over their last 8 games. They are taking on a Houston team that is just 3-12 to start the new season. Rockets are off a big road win over the Mavs, but that was an awful spot for Dallas. Look for Indiana to make easy work of Houston in this one. Play the Pacers -4.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Rockets +10½ -115 Bet the Rockets (+10.5) as a big double-digit road dog against the Mavericks in Wednesday's NBA action. I like Houston to keep this within the number, as this feels like a great spot to fade Dallas. The Mavs will be on no rest after a game last night against the Clippers. A crazy game where they got up big and then had to hold on for dear life to pull out a 103-101 win. It's also their 3rd game in 4 nights and 5th in the last 7. Play the Rockets +10.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Spurs +8½ -110 Bet the Spurs (+8.5) as a big road dog against the Blazers in Tuesday's NBA action. Most are going to want nothing to do with San Antonio in this spot. The Spurs are playing on no rest after an ugly 95-132 loss at Golden State last night. They are also facing a Blazers team that has been absolute covering machines to start the year. Portland has covered 4 straight and are 10-2 ATS on the year. I think it all adds up to the Blazers laying a few too many in this one. Play the Spurs +8.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Kings -1½ -115 Bet the Kings (-1.5) as a slim home favorite against the Nets in Tuesday's NBA action. While Brooklyn has been playing better since firing Nash and suspending Kyrie, they appeared to run out of gas in Sunday's 103-116 loss at the Lakers. I don't think 1-day off is going to be enough for this team to refuel, as this will still be their 3rd road game in 4 nights. They are also facing a red-hot Kings team that has won 3 straight and 6 of 8 overall. Sacramento is 7-1 ATS during this stretch. Play the Kings -1.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Kings -2½ -110 Bet the Kings (-2.5) as a short road favorite against the Lakers in Friday's NBA action. Easy play here on Sacramento. LA has looked awful over the first couple weeks of the season and now have to figure out how to stay competitive with LeBron sidelined with a groin injury. Kings may come in with a 4-6 record, but they are 4-2 in their last 6 games with both losses coming on the road by a mere 3-points. Sacramento should be a much bigger favorite in this spot. Play the Kings -2.5! |

It's been a rough go for Minnesota of late, as they have lost 5 of their last 6, going just 1-5 ATS during this stretch. I believe it's got the Grizzlies laying a few too many in this one. Memphis has also been overrated coming into this season, as they are just 4-6 ATS. Play the Timberwolves +5.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Rockets vs Raptors over 223½ -110 Bet the OVER (223.5) in Wednesday's NBA action between the Raptors and Rockets. I don't see these two teams having any problem getting into the 230's, as I think there's a really good chance we see Toronto hit 130 points on their own. Houston has allowed 4 of their last 6 opponents to hit at least 124 points. If Toronto can simply hit that mark, we would just need Houston to break 100, which they have done in all but one game all season. Play the OVER 223.5! |

UNDER has gone 25-14 in the Blazers last 39 games vs a team with a losing record and 16-6 in the Hornets last 22 at home vs a team with a winning record. UNDER is also 11-2 in Charlotte's last 13 at home vs teams who are shooting 36% or better from the field. This is also a Hornets team that is struggling to find their offense, averaging just 97.8 ppg and 41.3% shooting over their last 5 games. UNDER is 6-1 in Charlotte's last 7 overall. Play the UNDER 221.5! |

I just think this is a few too many for Dallas to be laying in this spot, as I see the Mavs having a hard time getting up for this matchup. Orlando on the other hand has been playing a little better of late covering 2 of their last 3 games. The Magic have also lost just 2 games all season by more than 10-points with the largest loss coming by 13. This team fights more than they get credit for and I think they could easily be the more motivated team in this one. Play Orlando +7! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Celtics -2 -110 Bet the Celtics (-2) as a short road favorite against the Grizzlies in Monday's NBA action. Boston is starting to get things figured out, as they have won 3 of their last 4. The offense has really come to life during this stretch as they are scoring 120.8 ppg over their last 5. Memphis is 6-3, but have played a really easy schedule to this point. Their 6 wins are against the Knicks, Rockets, Nets, Kings, Blazers and Hornets. The one big test they had was a road game at Dallas and they got destroyed in that game, losing 96-137. Look for Boston to take control of this game early and cruise to an easy win and cover. Play the Celtics -2! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Thunder +2 -110 Bet the Thunder (+2) as a small road dog against the Pistons in Monday's NBA action. Good spot here to jump on OKC, who comes in off back-to-back double-digit losses to the Nuggets and Bucks. Those are both two of the better teams in the league. Prior to those two losses, the Thunder had won 4 straight and covered 6 of 7. Detroit has gone just 1-8 SU since beating the Magic on opening night. Pistons are one of the worst shooting teams in the league, hitting on just 42.7% of their attempts. They also aren't getting it done defensively, allowing opponents on average to shoot 49% from the field. Play the Thunder +2! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies -7½ -110 Bet the Grizzlies (-7.5) as a decently priced home favorite against the Wizards in Sunday's NBA action. Easy play on Memphis at home in this one. Grizzlies are 3-0 SU and 2-1 ATS at home this year. The only non-cover coming in a game where they beat the Knicks by just 3 as a 4-point favorite after blowing a huge lead. Washington is also not playing good basketball right now. Wizards are just 1-4 SU and 1-4 ATS over their last 5 games. Most recently losing 86-128 at home to Brooklyn. Play Memphis -7.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Blazers +10½ -110 Bet the Blazers (+10.5) as a big road dog against the Suns in Friday's NBA action. This to me is a good spot to bet against Phoenix. There's certainly a tax being put on the Suns right now, as they come in being such a public team and have won and covered in each of their last 5 games. Not saying they won't win, but I like Portland to keep it close. While the Blazers are down one of their best players in Lillard, Portland has some other dudes on this team and play hard. Given these two teams turn around and play each other again in Phoenix on Saturday, this is one I think Phoenix will have a tough time getting up. Play the Blazers +10.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Bulls +8½ -110 Bet the Bulls (+8.5) as a big road dog against the Celtics in Friday's NBA actin. This to me is just too many points for Chicago to be catching. Boston is simply not playing up to expectations right now. Celtics are just 1-3 SU and 1-4 ATS. All 3 of those outright losses have come as a favorite. Chicago has also shown they are not overmatched in this matchup, as they beat up on the Celtics 120-102 at home earlier this season. Play the Bulls +8.5! |

I just don't trust Portland to be able to sustain their early season success with Lillard sidelined. Blazers are 5-1 SU and 5-1 ATS thru their first 6 games, having just won and covered without Lillard against a bad Rockets team. This also feels like a good buy-low spot on Memphis, who is coming off back-to-back road losses at the Jazz as a favorite. Play the Grizzlies -3.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks vs Knicks over 228½ -110 Bet the OVER (228.5) in Wednesday's NBA action between the Hawks and Knicks. New York has gotten a reputation as this great defensive team under Thibs, but they have been playing in shootouts so far this season. The average combined score in Knicks' games is 232.5 and that jumps to 239.3 when NY plays at home. Atlanta has seen an average combined score of 232.9 on the season and 241.2 in road games.

20* SHARP PLAY on Wolves +5 -110 Bet the Timberwolves (+5) as a short road dog against the Suns in Tuesday's NBA action. Good time to sell high on Phoenix, who comes in having won and covered in 4 straight. Phoenix just lost big man Deandre Ayton to an injury. While they were able to win without him in their last game at Houston, his absence is going to be felt a lot more against a talented Minnesota team, who has one of the best big men in the game in Rudy Gobert. This is the best defense Phoenix will have faced all season and one that can really get after the 3-point shooters, knowing that they have Gobert to protect the rim. Opponents have only made 30.9% of their 3-point attempts against Minnesota in road games this year. Play the Timberwolves +5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -8 -107 Bet the Nets (+8) as a big home favorite against the Pacers. Brooklyn will be out for revenge, as these two teams played in Brooklyn on Saturday. Indiana was an 11-point dog and won outright 125-116. I still think the Nets should be a double-digit favorite in this matchup. Pacers lived on the 3-pointer in that game. They shot just 42.6% from the field, yet were 23-46 (50%) from behind the 3-point line. Indiana just isn't a good enough team to take a quality opponents best shot an keep it close.

20* SHARP PLAY on Rockets +6 -110 Bet the Rockets (+6) as a decently priced road against the Blazers in Friday's NBA action. Portland is getting way too much respect here with star point guard Damian Lillard sidelined with a calf injury. Keep in mind Portland is also still without one of their big offseason additions in Gary Payton II. Houston is going to be a bottom feeder, but they are playing hard to start the season and are better than their 1-4 record would suggest. Not saying the Rockets will win this game, but I like them to keep it close right to the finish. Play Houston +6! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets +2½ -110 Bet the Nets (+2.5) as a short home dog against the Mavs in Thursday's NBA action. It's been a bad start to the 2022-23 season for Brooklyn. The Nets are just 1-3 and fresh off a 99-110 loss at Milwaukee last night. No one is going to give Brooklyn any shot at winning on no rest against a Mavs team that has looked good early on. Thing with Dallas, is despite how good they look, they are just 1-2 SU overall and 0-2 SU on the road. Last time out the Mavs allowed a Pelicans team that was down three starters in Zion Williamson, Brandon Ingram and Herb Jones to shoot 58% from the field. I like the Nets to get right and show up with a big effort here as a home dog. Play Brooklyn +2.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -6 -110 Bet the Jazz (-6) to cover as home favorites against the Rockets in Wednesday's NBA action. Big revenge spot here for Utah, as these two teams just played in Houston on Monday, which the Rockets were able to prevail 114-108 for their first win of the season. It was also Utah's first loss of the season as they came in 3-0. The big thing to note with that outcome, is the Jazz were in an awful scheduling spot, playing on no rest after a grueling 122-121 OT win at New Orleans the night before. Look for Utah to win here going away. Play the Jazz -6! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Bulls -7½ -105 Bet the Bulls (-7.5) to cover the number as a decently priced home favorite against the Pacers in Wednesday's NBA action. Easy play on Chicago at home against a bad Indiana team. The Pacers are 1-3 with their only win coming at home against a struggling Pistons team. Indiana just isn't playing good enough defensively to compete with a team like the Bulls on the road. The Pacers have allowed at least 114 points in each of their first 4 games, are giving up 121.5 ppg on the season and rank 28th in the league in defensive efficiency. Play the Bulls -7.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Magic +8½ -115 Bet the Magic (+8.5) to cover as a decently priced dog on the road against the Cavaliers in Wednesday's NBA action. Good spot to buy low on Orlando, who comes into this game winless at 0-4. Magic have been more competitive than their record would suggest, as they are only losing by 8.3 ppg. Orlando should be highly motivated to get that first win of the season, while the Cavs could be looking ahead to Friday's big showdown at Boston after back-to-back double-digit wins over the Bulls and Wizards. Look for the Magic to keep this closer than expected. Play Orlando +8.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards -5½ -105 Bet the Wizards (-5.5) to cover as home favorite against the Pistons in Tuesday's NBA action. Washington is a lot better than they get credit for. The Wizards are an OT loss at Cleveland from being 3-0. Detroit is 1-2 with their only win coming at home against the Magic by 4-points. Their two losses were by 24 at New York and by 9 at Indiana. Pistons have been awful offensively, ranking 25th in offensive efficiency. Washington has held each of their first 3 opponents under 43% shooting from the field and are currently 9th in the league in defensive efficiency. Play the Wizards -5.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets -4 -110 Bet the Nuggets (-4) as a short road favorite against the Blazers in Monday's NBA action. This is way too good a price to pass up on Denver, especially with Portland playing on no rest after yesterday's hard fought 106-104 win over the Lakers. All 5 starters played 30+ mins for the Blazers and they used a mere 9-man rotation. Denver had that shocking loss at Utah to open the season, but have won each of their last two, including that 128-123 upset win over the Warriors on Friday. Play the Nuggets -4! |

10-24-22 | Celtics -4.5 v. Bulls | Top | 102-120 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 29 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics -4½ -110 Bet the Celtics (-4.5) on the road against the Bulls in Monday's NBA action. This is just too good a price to pass up with Boston. Chicago had that impressive road win over the Heat to open the season, but have since lost at Washington and at home by 32 to the Cavs. Bulls have shot just 42.2% from the field in their first 3 games, while allowing their opponents to shoot 51.4%. That's a recipe for disaster against this Celtics team. Boston has the most efficient offense in the NBA early on. I just don't see this version of the Bulls being able to keep this close. Play the Celtics -4.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors -8½ -110 Bet the Warriors (-8.5) as a big home favorite against the Kings in Sunday's NBA action. Great spot here to jump on Golden State, as we should get a big time effort from the Warriors coming off their upset loss at home to the Nuggets on Friday. This is also a good spot to fade the Kings, who will be playing in the 2nd of a back-to-back after a hard fought 109-111 loss at home to the Clippers yesterday. Play the Warriors -8.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Hornets +6½ -115 Bet the Hornets (+6.5) as a decently priced home dog against the Pelicans. Everyone is going to be looking to bet New Orleans after how good they looked in their blowout win at Brooklyn to open the season. No one is going to want anything to do with Charlotte, especially with LeMelo Ball out. I just don't see New Orleans being locked in after how easy it was in their win over the Nets. Look for Charlotte to hang around on their home court and maybe even win this game outright. Play the Hornets +6.5! |

10-20-22 | Bucks v. 76ers -3.5 | Top | 90-88 | Loss | -105 | 31 h 16 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -3½ -105 Bet the 76ers (-3.5) at home against the Bucks in Thursday's NBA action. I like Philly to bounce back from Tuesday's ugly 2nd half against the Celtics. The 76ers to me are still one of the better teams in the East. I have to give them the edge at home against a Bucks team that is starting the year without Khris Middleton. I also think having played a game already gives Philly a bit of an edge in this one. The trio of Embiid, Harden and Maxey will be too much for Milwaukee to overcome. Play the 76ers -3.5! |

10-19-22 | Hornets v. Spurs +1.5 | 129-102 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 20 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Spurs +1½ -105 Bet the Spurs (+1.5) as a short home dog against the Hornets in Wednesday's NBA action. Perception is that San Antonio is tanking for the No. 1 pick. They might lack talent, but you have to believe they are going to compete to the best of their ability under Popovich. Charlotte will be without their best player in this game in LaMelo Ball. Preseason can't be taken to seriously, though it is worth noting that Charlotte didn't win a game (0-5). The offense was putrid in those 5 games, scoring just 98.8 ppg. Play the Spurs +1.5! |

10-19-22 | Knicks +6.5 v. Grizzlies | 112-115 | Win | 100 | 25 h 25 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Knicks +6½ -115 Bet the Knicks (+6.5) as a road dog against the Grizzlies in Wednesday's NBA action. The books are begging you to lay the points with Memphis in this one. The Grizzlies were one of the biggest surprises of the the 2021-22 season. The Knicks were one of the biggest disappointments. No one will give New York much of a shot in this game. Keep in mind this game is being nationally televised on ESPN, which means it's going to be heavily bet. The books aren't stupid. There is reason to think the Knicks could revert back to the team from a couple of years ago. I like the addition of Brunson. Other big thing here is Memphis is starting the season without one of their best players in Jaren Jackson Jr. Play the Knicks +6.5! |

10-19-22 | Rockets v. Hawks -9 | Top | 107-117 | Win | 100 | 26 h 27 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks -9 -110 Bet the Hawks (-9) as a big home favorite against the Rockets. I got no problem laying the big number with Atlanta in their season opener. The Hawks had a disappointing season last year. Everyone was high on this team after their run to the Eastern Conference Finals the year before. Atlanta ended up finishing with the 8th best record in the East last year. They advanced out of the play-in portion, but would lose in 5 games in the 1st round to the Heat. I believe it has them coming into this season undervalued, as they made a monster splash by adding Dejounte Murray from the Spurs. The backcourt of Murray and Trae Young could prove to be lethal. Those two should have their way against a bad Rockets team and easily win this game by double-digits. Play the Hawks -9! |

10-18-22 | Lakers v. Warriors UNDER 227.5 | Top | 109-123 | Loss | -110 | 31 h 30 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Lakers vs Warriors under 227½ -110 Bet the UNDER (227.5) in Tuesday's Opening Night action in the NBA between the Lakers and Warriors. I think there's some big time value with the UNDER. Most are going to expect points in this one. Golden State can light up the scoreboard with the best of them. Lakers were an awful defensive team last year and offensively should be better with a healthy LeBron and AD. People overlook how good the Warriors have been defensively. The Lakers may have their dynamic duo, but the rest of the rotation leaves a lot to be desired offensively. I also think that LA is going to be a much improved defensive team. I also think LA is going to try and keep this from being a game played in transition. Play the UNDER 227.5! |
