Cleveland at Brooklyn 7:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Nets- For a pair of clubs that ended the NBA season with identical records (44-38) and Brooklyn is considered the superior team by far with the likes of Irving and Durant. Cleveland is a surprise to many and could have had an even bigger season if not for serious injuries to multiple players. These two met in NYC on Friday with the Nets running away with it 35-19 the fourth quarter but the Cavaliers bounced back with a 133-115 win at Milwaukee.

Boston at Memphis 7:00 ET Celtics (-) over Grizzlies- In the final days of the NBA regular season we see an number of oddities and in the line and this game is one of them. Memphis is the second seed in the West and just totally annihilated the Pelicans last night looking as good as they have all season. Boston and Philadelphia are tied for the second spot in the East with the Celtics owning the tie-breaker and need only to win today.

04-09-22 | Pelicans +6.5 v. Grizzlies | Top | 114-141 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 60 m | Show |
New Orleans at Memphis 6:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Grizzlies- When I first saw this matchup I thought that I would be all over the Grizzlies as I had used with the Pelicans as a Megabucks winner and against Memphis with great success of late and felt the 'natural' vibe was to take the Grizzles. But, the first line I saw was transposed and had New Orleans the favorite (-5) and at the No. 2 seed in the West. I figured that Memphis would be playing no one. Then, I saw that they were actually 5-point dogs, I felt that the points were where they should be. Memphis is locked into their spot and should have little motivation while the Pelicans are hot and are playing for an improved play-in spot. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

Indiana at Philadelphia 1:00 ET 76ers (-) over Pacers- As long as Joel Embiid believes that he should be voted the league's MVP and his number certainly back him up and as long as has a chance to be named the MVP he will be on a mission. Indiana has lost eight in-a-row straight-up while the Sixers are off a late loss at Toronto. But these two met on Tuesday a 131-122 Brotherly Love win. I expect to win this one going away...take PHILADELPHIA! |

Atlanta at Miami 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Heat- There is something wrong in Mudville as the Heat who need just one win to clinch the top seed in the Eastern Conference are a virtual pick-em affair at home against the Hawks after winning their last game against Charlotte by 30-points. Atlanta has won six of seven and have clinch a spot in the play-in round and most likely would face the Heat in the playoffs and are 6-1 ATS in those games.

New Orleans at Sacramento 10:00 ET Pelicans (-) over Kings- Here I go again and I hope that I am not reading some in the line that isn't there. New Orleans has clinched a spot in the play-in games and probably can;move out of the ninth spot but they can push the Lakers even further back if not even eliminate them with a win here. This is the Kings final home game of the season and the Pelicans are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 road games.

The Pelicans are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 road games while LA is 4-9 ATS in their last 13 home games as favorites. The Pels have the Clips 'number' and are 38-16 ATS in the last 54 meetings.

The Bucks are on a roll of their own winning 10 of their last 12, 8-2 ATS in last 10 games and have won the lone meeting this season 126-114.

With his game on the road the team will have all personnel available and if the season ended today these two would meet in the opening round of the playoffs. Miami had a 'heated' exchange between players and coach as they have dropped their last two at home and they are 15-5 ATS in their last 20 games as underdogs and Brooklyn is 8-22 ATS in their last 30 games as favorites.

New York at Miami 8:00 ET Knicks (+) over Heat- Hey, I remember when these two clubs had such a fierce rivalry that fisticuffs occurring more than once and even coach Jeff Van Gundy was holding on to Alonzo Mornings' leg for safety. Now, a days the Heat just fight with each other while the Knicks barely communicate with each other. But, I thing Miami's problem might be deeper that of New York's. The Heat are coming of a loss a 'bad loss' to a Warriors team that sat three starters including Curry, Green and Thompson and I look for them to play angry. The Knicks are emerging and are 7-0 ATS as road underdogs. Take NEW YORK! |

The Kings have lost four straight and 9-of-11 while Chicago's DeRozan slumps and they are 1-6 ATS in their last seven overall and 0-4 ATS on the road.

San Antonio at Miami 8:00 ET Spurs (+) over Heat- I've said it time and again that it is difficult to get past this Miami team and yet I look to take them down when the situation calls. The Heat is off a relatively easy win in New York last night while the Spurs were in a double-overtime game in Washington and took a late night flight to Miami. San Antonio has won 4-of-5 and are 6-2-1 ATS in their last nine games in Miami and 9-3 ATS in their last 12 road games against winning teams. While the hot Heat have won 7-of-8 they are just 1-5 ATS this season with no rest. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

02-26-22 | Grizzlies +2 v. Bulls | Top | 116-110 | Win | 100 | 11 h 57 m | Show |
Memphis at Chicago 8:00 ET Grizzlies (+) over Bulls- Memphis who at times looks like the best team in the NBA has dropped their last two and now face the hottest player in the league in DeMar DeRozen who has scored 30 points or more in nine straight games as Chicago enters this contest winners of their last six. The Grizzlies have won the last three meetings and are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games after an ATS loss and they are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 as underdogs. Take MEMPHIS! |

02-26-22 | Raptors +3 v. Hawks | 100-127 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 25 m | Show | |
Toronto at Atlanta 7:00 ET Raptors (+) over Hawks- The Raptors took an extended break after the All-Star game taking the night off against Charlotte last night losing 125-93 and at one time trailing by 41 points. And they are 9-1 ATS after a loss. Toronto has won the two meetings this season and are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 as underdogs and for some reason (maybe hard Fridays) the Hawks are just 1-7 ATS in their last eight Saturday games. Take TORONTO! |

02-25-22 | Clippers v. Lakers | 105-102 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 8 m | Show | |
L.A. Clippers at L.A. Lakers 10:10 ET Clippers (+) over Lakers- Let's go back in our minds to the season's opening week could you have imagined the Lakers at home favorited by less than a field goal over the Clippers (be it they both play at the Staples Center). The amazing part of this is that the Clips are under .500 and you would think they would be getting more points be the Lakers are 4-games under the watermark and just can't cut it. Take the CLIPPERS! |

02-25-22 | 76ers v. Wolves +3 | Top | 133-102 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 10 m | Show |
Philadelphia at Minnesota 8:10 ET Timberwolves (+) over 76ers- With or without James Harden all of a sudden the 76ers are a team to fade. When and where Harden plays with Philadelphia the mindset has changed for the core of the team but for the newcomer it will be more of the same. Break a teams offensive flow so that you can show your skills which just don't seem to click when it counts most. The T'wolves are 'comers' and with Karl-Anthony Towns leading the way they are a threat. Take MINNESOTA! |

02-25-22 | Heat v. Knicks +6 | 115-100 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 39 m | Show | |
Miami at New York 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Heat- It's the old adage...'addition by subtraction.' The Knicks saw the light early and the re-birth of Kemba Walker just was not to be and he was given the rest o the season to recover from the Ben Simmons Syndrome (when you realize that you can't play). The last time out New York blew a 28-point lead to crippled Brooklyn and lost whimpering as they left the court. Miami once again is one of the toughest outs in the league and when Jimmy Butler is healthy they can be unbeatable. As good as the Heat can be and they have won six of seven but it's time for the Knicks to lick their wounds. Take NEW YORK! |

02-24-22 | Warriors v. Blazers +9.5 | 132-95 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 16 m | Show | |
Golden State at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Warriors- Most of us saw it or at least saw the high-lites of Stephen Curry's performance in the All-Star game and that kind of thing stays with out. But, what wasn't staying with Curry in that gala event was another other player. No defense was played last Sunday and it will be a little different here. The Blazers have a 'new' look with their mainstay guard both missing as Lillard out with an injury and McCollum traded. Warriors are just 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 road games and 1-4-2 ATS as road favorites while the Trailblazers are 4-0 ATS in their last four games overall. Take PORTLAND! |

02-24-22 | Grizzlies v. Wolves +3 | 114-119 | Win | 100 | 11 h 27 m | Show | |
Memphis at Minnesota 8:00 ET Timberwolves (+) over Grizzlies- Memphis has won two of the three meetings between these two and they have emerged as a force with the league as they possess the third best record in the NBA. Ja Morant is leading the No. 2 ranked offense scoring at a 113.8ppg clip and will be facing one of the league's newest stars in Karl-Anthony Towns. The Timberwolves are playing their best right now and are 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven home games. Take MINNESOTA! |

02-24-22 | Hawks +4.5 v. Bulls | Top | 108-112 | Win | 100 | 11 h 28 m | Show |
Atlanta at Chicago 8:00 ET Hawks (+) over Bulls- Things change although they may appear to be the same. Chicago has won five straight riding the coattails of DeMar DeRozan who has scored 35 or more points in seven straight games and all while shooting over 50% from the floor. But, the Bulls who defeated the Hawks at home as a -7.5-point favorites 131-117 are now despite the hot run are favored by 3-points less. Atlanta who has won their last two before the break is doing what they did last year, in that they were below the .500 mark and then they put it together in the second half. Playing better the Hawks are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 games. Take ATLANTA! |

02-17-22 | 76ers +7.5 v. Bucks | 123-120 | Win | 100 | 12 h 36 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Milwaukee 8:30 ET 76ers (+) over Bucks- Can anyone stop Giannis? We know it won't be James Harden who just disappears on defense but won't play tonight anyway. The 76ers do have a force of their own in Joel Embiid who is averaging 30.3 points and 13 rebounds double-double in six of his last seven games. Philadelphia is off an embarrassing 48-point home loss to Boston Tuesday night but are 5-0 ATS in their last five game as road underdogs. The Bucks are just 2-5 ATS in their last seven home games and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games as home favorites. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

02-17-22 | Mavs v. Pelicans +3.5 | Top | 125-118 | Loss | -107 | 11 h 18 m | Show |
Dallas at New Orleans 8:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Mavericks- The Pelicans picked up an impact player before the trade deadline and CJ McCollum has been a huge contributor since his acquisition averaging 29.7 points in his last three games. Unfortunately for New Orleans they have dropped three of the four games played since his arrival in the 'Big Easy.' Dallas also added personnel from a trade with Washington as Spencer Dinwiddie aided in the Mavericks win over Miami Tuesday night. New Orleans is off their worst 3-point shooting game of the season and I expect them to rebound here against the Mavericks who are 205 ATS on the road against teams with losing records at home. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

02-17-22 | Wizards +4.5 v. Nets | 117-103 | Win | 100 | 11 h 42 m | Show | |
Washington at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Wizards (+) over Nets- Sometimes less is more and the Nets are in that mode as they jettisoned malcontent and malingerer James (I've never won a playoff series) Harden. After having lost 11 straight Brooklyn has posted a pair of wins including a 28-point comeback over the Knicks last night. Washington is just 3-10 in their last 13 games overall but one of those wins was a 113-112 victory over the Nets. The Wizards dropped a 113-108 decision at Indiana last night but are 29-13-2 ATS when playing the second of back-to-back nights. The Nets are 7-20-1 ATS in their last 28 home games and will still play at home without Kyrie (Flat World) Irving. Take WASHINGTON! |

02-16-22 | Jazz v. Lakers +5.5 | 101-106 | Win | 100 | 14 h 18 m | Show | |
Utah at L.A. Lakers 10:00 ET Lakers (+) over Jazz- The Jazz have gone retro as they are back to winning big at home and struggling when not playing in the 'Mile High' environment. Utah is off a six-game home winning streak and now take to the road where they have suffered five consecutive losses. Los Angeles has dropped their last three and 7-of-9 as they have been playing short-handed with both Lebron James and Anthony Davis missing playing time. The Jazz are 2-7 ATS in the last nine meetings and just 1-5 ATS in LA. Take the LAKERS! |

02-15-22 | Grizzlies v. Pelicans +3.5 | 121-109 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 46 m | Show | |
Memphis at New Orleans 8:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Grizzlies- The addition of CJ McCollum has already paid dividends as his 23 points lead six New Orleans players in double figures last night in their 120-90 win over Toronto last night. This is the second meeting of the season between these two with the Pelicans winning the first encounter at home 112-101 back in November, they will meet twice more in Memphis after the All-Star break. The Grizzlies are 0-7 ATS in the last seven meetings including 0-5 ATS in the 'Big Easy.' Take NEW ORLEANS! |

02-13-22 | Hawks +7 v. Celtics | 95-105 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 9 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Boston 2:00 ET Hawks (+) over Celtics- Boston is starting to play the way many expected of them when the season started as they have won seven straight and 9-of-10 and are now tied with Toronto for the second spot in the Atlantic Division behind the 76ers. The Hawks who appeared to be making a 'move' of their own has now dropped three of their last four are off a home loss to San Antonio. Atlanta won the first of two meetings and are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings. The Celtics are just 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games as home favorites and just 2-7 ATS at home against teams with losing records. Take ATLANTA! |

02-12-22 | Clippers +7.5 v. Mavs | 99-97 | Win | 100 | 11 h 18 m | Show | |
L.A. Clippers at Dallas 8:30 ET Clippers (+) over Mavericks- Sometimes less ends up being more and that's the attitude Dallas as taken by trading Kristaps Porzingis who was moved to Washington after playing just 134 out of the last 265 games for the Mavericks. The Mavs have won four straight and are 17-5 in their last 22 games including a 112-105 win over the Clippers on Thursday. This is the second of back-to-back contests as the Clippers are off three straight losses and are 0-5 ATS in their last five games. Despite the current loss L.A. is 9-3 ATS in the last 12 meetings. Take CLIPPERS! |
