Key Matchups 

Tennessee's Defense vs. Florida's Offense: The Volunteers have one of the best defenses in the nation, allowing only 55.9 points per game. They will need to contain Florida's high-scoring offense, led by Walter Clayton Jr. (18.3 PPG) and Alijah Martin (15.9 PPG)1. If Tennessee can limit Florida's scoring opportunities, they will have a significant advantage. 

Florida's Rebounding vs. Tennessee's Interior Defense: The Gators have a slight edge in rebounding, averaging 38.7 rebounds per game. They will need to dominate the boards, especially on the offensive end, to create second-chance scoring opportunities. Tennessee's interior defense, anchored by Igor Milicic Jr. (10.9 PPG, 10.2 RPG), will be crucial in preventing Florida from capitalizing on rebounds. 

Three-Point Shooting: Both teams have strong three-point shooting capabilities, but Florida will need to be more efficient from beyond the arc to keep pace with Tennessee's scoring. The Gators shot 48.3% from three-point range in their last game against Kentucky, but they will need to maintain that level of accuracy against the Volunteers' defense. 

Heat vs Kings

Now that the Jimmy Butler toxicity running rampant in the locker room and the media outlets appears to be getting Jimmy out of my Miami, I think the team will be able to play a whole more focused and with fewer distractions. The advantage now is the market will price Heat games absent of Butler and will occasionally provide some exceptional value in the pricing.

Stephen Curry: 23 PPG, 42% 3PT, 10 attempts per game 

Jonathan Kuminga: 18 PPG, career-high 33 points in last game against Rockets 

Draymond Green: 8 PPG, 7 RPG, 7 APG 

Houston Rockets: 

Alperen Sengun: 20 PPG, 10 RPG, 4 APG 

Jalen Green: 22 PPG, 4 RPG, 3 APG 

Dillon Brooks: 15 PPG, 3 RPG, 2 APG 

Key Matchup to Watch 

The matchup between Stephen Curry and the Rockets' defense will be crucial. Curry is off to another elite scoring season, despite a slightly erratic shooting season. He remains a significant threat in every game and the Rockets will likely rely on their gritty defenders like Dillon Brooks and Amen Thompson to try and contain him. I do not see this happening and look for Curry to have another big game against the Rockets. 

The Warriors have won the last 15 games against the Rockets and are 12-3 ATS in those wins. This trend has no value to any handicap or predictive model, but it is worth nothing given the historic stretch of wins by the Warriors over the same opponent.

Game Analysis 

Both teams are known for their strong defensive play, with Arkansas and Illinois ranking in the top 10 for defensive efficiency. This matchup is expected to be a low-scoring affair, with both teams excelling at limiting their opponents' scoring opportunities. 

Arkansas will rely on the scoring prowess of Boogie Fland and Adou Thiero, while Illinois will look to Will Riley and Tomislav Ivisic to lead their offense. The key to the game may lie in the battle on the boards and the ability to force turnovers and that favors Illinois based on the model projections. If Illinois’ Ben Humrichous gets hot from beyond the arc, Arkansas will be forcd to spread their defense and open the lane for Illinois.

The following NBA betting algorithm has produced solid results with a 102-12 SU and an 85-29 ATS result for 75% winning bets since 2017. The requirements are: 

Bet on home teams.  

That home team has allowed 105 or fewer points in each of their last two games.  

The opponent is coming off a game in which they scored 120 or more points.  

2017 is a very important date for any query as it is the season in which scoring rose significantly and kept rising to the current scoring levels.  

From the Predictive Model: My model projects that the Celtics will score at least 114 points and have the better assist-to-turnover ratio. In past home games, the Celtics are 102-12 SU (90%) and 85-29 ATS (75%) winning bets when they have met or exceeded these performance measures. 

The Boston Celtics are looking to extend their five-game win streak as they host the Los Angeles Clippers at TD Garden. The Clippers, on a five-game win streak themselves, are coming off a dominant 125-99 victory over the pathetic Philadelphia 76ers. 

The Celtics have been impressive this season, boasting the second-best record in the Eastern Conference. They average 119.9 points per game and shoot 45.8% from the field1. However, they have struggled against the spread, covering in just seven of their 17 games. That fact has served to reduce the Celtic’s price tag in the marketplace and we are getting great value to be the Celtics tonight. Remember, just because there is value in a bet does not guarantee an ATS winner.

The foe is scoring 30% or more of their points from three-point territory. 

The Over has gone 30-12-1 for 71,4% winning bets. No parlay is recommended but I do like betting 3-Units preflop on the OVER and then look for a slower than expected start to the game to get the remaining 2-units bet at 229.5 or fewer points during the first half of action.
