01-31-22 | Heat +3.5 v. Celtics | Top | 92-122 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 59 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY Great spot to back the Miami Heat to snap back from a disapointing triple overtime loss to the Raptors at home on Saturday. Heat are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss, 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog and 9-2 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Boston. The Celtics just rebounded from a bad loss themselves, by winning 107-97 at New Orleans on Saturday. They've been inconsistent all season, and 3-12-1 ATS in their last 16 games following a ATS win. 10* play on Miami Heat. |

01-30-22 | Jazz v. Wolves +1.5 | Top | 106-126 | Win | 100 | 13 h 48 m | Show |
MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Utah Jazz have lost four in a row and eight of their last 10. In their last game, the Jazz took a 119-109 loss at Memphis. They are only 3-14-2 ATS in their last 19 after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game and 8-18-1 ATS in their last 27 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. The Wolves will be looking to snap back from a pair of underdog losses at Golden State and Phoenix. The Wolves are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up loss and 13-3 ATS in their last 16 Sunday games. |
|||||||
01-30-22 | Blazers v. Bulls -6 | 116-130 | Win | 100 | 7 h 52 m | Show | |
SUNDAY AFTERNOON BLAZERS/BULLS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER This looks like a great spot to back the Bulls to rebound from a 131-122 loss at San Antonio while Portland is in a potential let down spot coming off a 15-point win at Houston. The Bulls will have to do without Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso, but the Blazers are far from full strength as well and they're simply not a very good basketball team without Dame Lillard on the floor. Trail Blazers are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 games as a road underdog. Bulls are 23-11-1 ATS in their last 35 games as a favorite. Bulls are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 Sunday games. 8* play on Chicago Bulls. |

01-27-22 | Lakers v. 76ers -2.5 | Top | 87-105 | Win | 100 | 11 h 14 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* SIXERS/LAKERS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Philadelphia 76ers took a 117-107 loss as a double-digit favorite against New Orleans in their last game. They are perfect 6-0 ATS in their last six games off an ATS loss and 9-2 ATS in their last 11 after failing to cover the spread by 10 points or more. The Lakers are coming off a 106-96 win at Brooklyn, but they are still only 6-14 ATS in their last 20 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and they're 1-5 ATS in the last six meetings with the Sixers. 10* play on Philadelphia 76ers. |
|||||||
01-26-22 | Grizzlies -4 v. Spurs | 118-110 | Win | 100 | 11 h 16 m | Show | |
MIKE'S GRIZZLIES/SPURS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER Great spot to fade the San Antonio Spurs following a 30-point blowout win against Houston last night. While the Spurs are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games playing on 0 days rest, they are also 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS win and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games as a home underdog. The Grizzlies have had two full days of rest and recovery and plenty of time to mull over a 104-91 loss at Dallas on Sunday. They are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 2 days rest, 21-7 ATS in their last 28 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points, and 13-3 ATS in their last 16 road games. Grizzlies are 5-1-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings in San Antonio. 8* play on Memphis Grizzlies. |

01-23-22 | Nets v. Wolves -2.5 | 125-136 | Win | 100 | 11 h 42 m | Show | |
MIKE'S NETS/WOLVES NBA BOOKIE BU$TER The Brooklyn Nets have won three of their last four games, but this looks like a tough spot as they close out a four-game road trip. In their last game, Brooklyn won 117-102 as a one-point favorite at San Antonio. The Nets are 5-16 ATS in their last 21 games following a ATS win and 3-14 ATS in the last 17 meetings in Minnesota. The Wolves will be looking to snap back from a 134-122 loss at Atlanta. They are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up loss and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. 8* play on Minnesota Timberwolves. |
|||||||
01-23-22 | Lakers v. Heat -4 | Top | 107-113 | Win | 100 | 17 h 42 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* LAKERS/HEAT NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Los Angeles Lakers put a 116-105 beating on Orlando Friday night, but they are only 6-21 ATS in their last 27 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 5-13 ATS in their last 18 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. The Miami Heat will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing 110-108 loss at Atlanta. The Heat are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up loss and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a ATS loss. 10* play on Miami Heat. |
|||||||
01-22-22 | Grand Canyon v. Sam Houston State | Top | 56-58 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 38 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* CBB PLAY OF THE DAY Great spot to back Grand Canyon after getting humiliated in a 71-46 loss at Stephen F Austin in their last game. Antelopes are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss. Antelopes are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss. The Sam Houston St. Bearkats are getting too much respect after covering the spread in four straight games, and I think the market has overadjusted. In their last game, the Bearkats put a 71-46 beating on New Mexico State. Bearkats are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games after allowing less than 50 points in their previous game. Bearkats are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win of more than 20 points. 10* play on Grand Canyon Antelopes. |
|||||||
01-21-22 | Heat +1.5 v. Hawks | Top | 108-110 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 55 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* HEAT/HAWKS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Atlanta Hawks have answered a 10-game homecourt losing streak with a couple of solid home wins against Milwaukee and Minnesota, but I think they're in for a tough game when hosting Miami Friday night. The Hawks are only 6-13 ATS in their last 19 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record, and they'll face a hot Miami team that has won six of its last seven straight up and has covered the spread in seven of its last eight games. The Heat are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog and they've won each of the first two meetings with Atlanta this season. 10* play on Miami Heat. |
|||||||
01-21-22 | Thunder +10 v. Hornets | 98-121 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 51 m | Show | |
MIKE'S THUNDER/HORNETS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER This looks like a great spot to fade the Charlotte Hornets. They've been hot lately winning six of their last seven SU and ATS, but they've been underdogs in almost all those games. Now the Hornets are asked to cover a near double-digit spread, and they'll face a Thunder team that is 25-10-1 ATS in their last 36 games as an underdog and 17-7-1 ATS in the last 25 meetings with the Hornets. Also, I expect a big effort from OKC after losing by 22 points at San Antonio in their last game. 8* play on Oklahoma City Thunder. |

01-20-22 | Pacers v. Warriors -10.5 | Top | 121-117 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 12 m | Show |
NBA MAJOR WAGER - MIKE'S GAME OF THE MONTH This looks like a great spot to fade the Indiana Pacers who will be playing on no rest after winning as an underdog at LA Lakers last night. The Pacers are 22-31 ATS off an ATS win and 4-7 ATS off an upset win on the road, both trends dating back to the start of last season. They'll face a Warriors side that is 19-6-1 ATS in their last 26 games as a home favorite. 10* play on Golden State Warriors. |

01-19-22 | Pacers +4.5 v. Lakers | 111-104 | Win | 100 | 15 h 27 m | Show | |

The Lakers won outright as a 5.5-point underdog to Utah in their last game, but they are only 5-10 ATS coming off an ATS win on the season. 8* play on Indiana Pacers. |

MIKE'S GRIZZLIES/BUCKS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER The Memphis Grizzlies have won their past six games away from home dating back to Dec. 26 and they are a solid 14-6 SU on the road for the season. They are 12-1 ATS in their last 13 road games and 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog. The Bucks have lost back-to-back games outright as favorites and they are 0-5 ATS in their last five games as favorites. 8* play on Memphis Grizzlies. |

01-17-22 | Pelicans +6.5 v. Celtics | 92-104 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 53 m | Show | |
SUPER EARLY PELICANS/CELTICS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER The Boston Celtics are coming off a 114-112 win against Chicago but, they failed to cover the 7.5-point spread. The Celtics are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. The New Orleans Pelicans took a 120-105 beating at Brooklyn in their last game, but they had covered the spread in four straight games prior to that outing. 8* play on New Orleans Pelicans. |

01-16-22 | Suns -11 v. Pistons | Top | 135-108 | Win | 100 | 5 h 8 m | Show |
MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY Great spot to fade the Pistons coming off an upset win as 9-point underdogs against Toronto.

MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* PLAY OF THE DAY The Brooklyn Nets are 1-8 ATS in their last nine games overall and 4-18 ATS in their last 22 games as a home favorite. They took a 130-109 home loss to the Thunder a couple of nights ago and I think the New Orleans will put them to the test again here on Saturday. The Pels have covered the spread in four straight games. 10* play on New Orleans Pelicans. |
|||||||
01-13-22 | Thunder +10 v. Nets | 130-109 | Win | 100 | 15 h 9 m | Show | |
THUNDER/NETS SIDE This looks like a potential flat spot for the Nets after destroying the Bulls in their own building last night. . Nets are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 0 days rest, 4-17 ATS in their last 21 games as a home favorite and 3-14 ATS in their last 17 games following a ATS win. The Thunder are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games as a road underdog. Under is 5-1 in Nets last 6 games playing on 0 days rest.

MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY This is a really bad spot for the Washington Wizards who will play their third game in four nights and are on the second leg of a back-to-back after defeating OKC 122-118 Tuesday night. The Wizards still failed to cover the spread. They are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games as a favorite and 1-11-1 ATS in their last 13 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. The Orlando Magic are losers of nine straight games, but they are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a road underdog and 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings with the Wizards. 10* play on Orlando Magic. |

MIKE'S WOLVES/PELICANS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER The New Orleans Pelicans have lost four of their last five games, and now they'll face a Minnesota team that has been playing great basketball since getting their star players healthy. The Wolves are coming into this game riding a four-game winning streak, and they have put up 135 and 141 points in their last two games. Timberwolves are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Timberwolves are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a road favorite.

TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a huge let down spot for 9-30 Pistons who are coming off back-to-back wins, the most recent a 126-116 triumph as a 10.5-point underdog against Utah last night. The Pistons are 14-35-2 ATS in their last 51 games following a straight up win and 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. The Chicago Bulls will be looking to bounce back from a 113-99 loss at Dallas on Sunday.

MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Chicago Bulls are arguably the hottest team in the league. The Bulls are heading to Dallas riding a nine-game winning streak and they are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 games as a road favorite. The Mavs have won five in a row, but they are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a winning road record and the Bulls are 9-3-1 ATS in the last 13 meetings in Dallas. 10* play on Chicago Bulls. |

01-07-22 | Cavs -4 v. Blazers | Top | 114-101 | Win | 100 | 19 h 40 m | Show |
MIKE'S CAVS/BLAZERS TGIF NBA MONEYMAKER The Portland Trail Blazers have lost five of their last six, and failed to cover the spread in each of the losses. They'll have to do without their starting backcourt in Damian Lillard (abdomen) and CJ McCollum (lung) for the time being, and I think they'll struggle with the Cavs here Friday night. Cleveland has dropped four of its last five games (0-4-1 ATS), but the Cavaliers are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 road games and still a solid 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a straight up loss. The Trail Blazers are 3-13 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog and 2-9 ATS in their last 11 home games. 8* play on Cleveland Cavaliers. |

CBB BIG BET ALERT - TEXAS TECH/IOWA STATE GAME OF THE WEEK The Texas Tech Red Raiders have failed to cover the spread in three of their last four games. They have played only one true road game this season, in which they failed to cover the spread. The Red Raiders are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 road games and here they'll face an Iowa State team that is looking to get back to its winning ways after losing to Baylor as an underdog on its last game. The Cyclones still covered the spread, and they are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. 10* play on Iowa State Cyclones. |

01-05-22 | Warriors -6 v. Mavs | Top | 82-99 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 41 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a good spot to fade a Dallas Mavericks team coming off three straight wins. They covered the spread as a home favorite against Denver in their last game, but the Mavs are only 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as a home underdog and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS win. The Warriors defeated Miami by seven points as a 10-point favorite in their last game. Steph Curry was held to a season-low nine points, but he and the rest of the Warriors should have a big night from behind the arc here with Dallas allowing opponents to shoot 35.3% from three-point land. Warriors are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games following an ATS loss. Warriors are 17-7-2 ATS in their last 26 games as a favorite. 10* play on Golden State Warriors. |

MIKE'S PROVIDENCE/MARQUETTE NCAAB BOOKIE BLA$TER The no. 16 Providence Friars are 13-1 SU and 10-4 ATS on the season, but this will be just their fourth true road game. The Friars are 3-13 ATS in their last 16 games as a road favorite and now they'll face an angry Marquette team looking to snap a four-game skid. 8* play on Marquette Golden Eagles. |

TOP-RATED 10* GRIZZLIES/CAVS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Memphis Grizzlies looked sharp in a 118-104 win at Brooklyn last night. They'll be playing on no rest here in Cleveland Tuesday night, but I don't think fatigue will be an issue. Grizzlies are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games as an underdog, and the Cavs have failed to cover the spread in each of their last four games. 10* play on Memphis Grizzlies. |
|||||||
01-03-22 | Nuggets +3 v. Mavs | 89-103 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 3 m | Show | |
MIKE'S NUGGETS/MAVS NBA MONEYMAKER Tough spot for the Dallas Mavericks who will be playing their third game in four nights, and on no rest after defeating the Thunder on the road last night. They also return home from a long road trip. The Mavericks are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 home games following a road trip of 7 or more days and 6-18 ATS in their last 24 games following a straight up win. The Nuggets are missing some players and their coach due to health and safety protocols, but this is more a fade of Dallas than a play on Denver. 8* play on Denver Nuggets. |

TOP-RATED 10* GRIZZLIES/NETS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Memphis Grizzlies have been money as underdogs, going 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games as an underdog.

MIKE'S WISCONSIN/PURDUE BIG TEN MONEYMAKER The Purdue Boilermakers have failed to cover the spread in five of their last six games, and I think they'll come up short once again here against Wisconsin on Monday. The Badgers are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 road games vs. a team with a winning home record, and they've had a game to get back into it following a two week break due to COVID cancellations. 8* play on Wisconsin Badgers. |

12-31-21 | Suns -3.5 v. Celtics | Top | 108-123 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 22 m | Show |
SUPER EARLY SUNS/CELTICS NEW YEAR'S EVE NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY Both teams are decimated due to NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, but I think Phoenix has an edge with superstar Devin Booker available. The reeling Celtics have lost three in a row and eight of their last 11 games. They made only 35-of-101 shots (34.7%) from the floor in a 91-82 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday. It's not easy to get good looks against Phoenix, and I like the Suns to run away with this game. 10* play on Phoenix Suns. |
|||||||
12-27-21 | Grizzlies v. Suns -8.5 | 114-113 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 28 m | Show | |
GRIZZLIES/SUNS BOOKIE BLA$TER I expect to see a big effort from the Phoenix Suns here after taking a home loss to Golden State on Christmas Day. The Suns had won five straight prior to that game, covering the spread in four of the wins. The Memphis Grizzlies will be playing the second leg of a back-to-back after a win against Sacramento yesterday. I don't think they'll have the legs to keep this close. 8* play on Phoenix Suns. |

12-27-21 | Jazz -6 v. Spurs | Top | 110-104 | Push | 0 | 19 h 8 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* JAZZ @ SPURS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a great spot to fade the San Antonio Spurs after three straight wins, the most recent a 144-109 blowout of Detroit last night. The Utah Jazz meanwhile may have won three in a row, but they've failed to cover the spread in five straight games, which the betting market is very much aware of. Solid sell high, buy low spot, and it's worth pointing out that the Jazz are 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings. 10* play on Utah Jazz. |

12-23-21 | Bucks -4.5 v. Mavs | Top | 102-95 | Win | 100 | 16 h 13 m | Show |
NBA MAJOR WAGER - MIKE'S GAME OF THE MONTH (SIDE) The Milwaukee Bucks will be playing this game on the second night of a back-to-back, but fatigue should not be an issue after cruising to a win against Houston last night. Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is in the NBA's Covid-19 protocols, but they're fairly healthy otherwise unlike the Mavs who will be missing at least six players due to the health and safety protocols, including Luka Doncic and Tim Hardaway Jr. The Mavs defeated Minnesota on Tuesday, but I don't think they'll have enough talent on the floor in this game to keep up with the Bucks. 10* play on Milwaukee Bucks. |

12-22-21 | Clippers -5.5 v. Kings | Top | 105-89 | Win | 100 | 11 h 5 m | Show |
CLIPPERS @ KINGS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a great spot to back the Los Angeles Clippers who will be looking to get back on track following three straight losses. They're relatively healthy, unlike the Sacramento Kings who have seven players in the NBA's health-and-safety protocols. This is a big revenge spot for the Clippers after losing the first two meetings of the season. 10* play on Los Angeles Clippers. |

12-21-21 | Suns -7 v. Lakers | 108-90 | Win | 100 | 13 h 38 m | Show | |
LATE-NIGHT SUNS @ LAKERS NBA MONEYMAKER The Los Angeles Lakers are coming off back-to-back losses, and they'll be severely shorthanded here as they could have as many as 10 players missing due to Covid-19 protocols or injuries. The Phoenix Suns meanwhile are a lot healthier, and they just got leading scorer Devin Booker back from a nearly three-week absence because of a hamstring injury. Lakers are 6-13 ATS in their last 19 home games. Suns are 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings. 8* play on Phoenix Suns. |

12-18-21 | Cavs v. Bucks | 119-90 | Win | 100 | 14 h 23 m | Show | |
SATURDAY NIGHT CAVS @ BUCKS NBA MONEYMAKER The Cleveland Cavaliers have quietly emerged as a beast in the East, coming into this contest with the fourth-best record in the conference while riding a five-game winning streak. The Milwaukee Bucks are in a tough spot, missing several key players due to injuries and the league's health and safety protocols, and they'll be playing on no rest after taking a 116-112 overtime loss to the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday. Cavaliers are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Bucks are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games playing on 0 days rest. 8* play on Cleveland Cavaliers. |

MIKE'S TGIF BUCKS @ PELICANS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Milwaukee Bucks were without two-time NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo and six other players when they faced Indiana on Wednesday. They still managed to defeat the Pacers by double-digits, and I think they have enough talent on the floor to take care of business against a Pelicans team that won only one of the last six head-to-head meetings. The Bucks are shooting 36.2% from three-point range (7th), and the Pels are allowing opponents to shoot 36.9% from behind the arc (27th). 10* play on Milwaukee Bucks. |

12-16-21 | Wizards +8.5 v. Suns | 98-118 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 31 m | Show | |
WIZARDS/SUNS SIDE Good spot to back the Wizards who are getting no respect from the betting market after failing to cover the spread in each of their last seven games. They took a 119-105 loss at Sacramento last night, but it's worth noting that the Wizards are 28-11-2 ATS in their last 41 games playing on 0 days rest. The Suns will be without star guard Devin Booker (hamstring) for a seventh straight game and they've covered the spread in only two of their last six. 8* play on Washington Wizards. |

TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Philadelphia 76ers will be playing on no rest after taking a loss at Miami Wednesday night, but I think they'll bounce back here against a severely shorthanded Brooklyn team. The Nets had only eight players available against the Raptors on Tuesday, and while they won that game, I think they'll be too gassed to keep up with Philly in this one. In addition to Philadelphia winning and covering the spread, I also like the under as neither team is likely to push the tempo. 10* play on Philadelphia 76ers. |

12-15-21 | Hornets v. Spurs -3.5 | Top | 131-115 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 57 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The slumping Charlotte Hornets have won only two of their last 10 games. While they've covered the spread in the majority of those games, I don't think that will be the case here against a fairly well-rested Spurs team that has has two days off since a 112-97 win over New Orleans on Sunday. This will be the finale of a five-game homestand for the Spurs, and they need a win here to get out of it with more wins than losses. Spurs are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games as a favorite. Hornets are 8-19 ATS in their last 27 games as a road underdog. Spurs are 10-4 ATS in the last 14 meetings at AT&T Center. 10* play on San Antonio Spurs. |

12-14-21 | Warriors -3.5 v. Knicks | Top | 105-96 | Win | 100 | 15 h 35 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* TUESDAY NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Golden State Warriors trailed for pretty much the whole game before coming back to defeat the Pacser in Indiana last night. They are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games playing on 0 days rest and 7-2 ATS in their last 9 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400, and they'll face such a team here with the Knicks only 5-9 straight up home at Madison Square Garden. The Knicks are going through a rough patch, having lost six of their last seven straight up and failing to cover the spread in each of the losses. The Knicks are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games as a home underdog and the Warriors are 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings at the Garden. 10* play on Golden State Warriors. |
|||||||
12-13-21 | Warriors -3 v. Pacers | Top | 102-100 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 36 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Golden State Warriors are 18-7-1 to the under on the season, and 8-1 in their last 9 games following a ATS loss. Additionally, the Warriors are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight up loss, and I expect them to snap back here after taking a 102-93 loss at Philadelphia in their last game. Under is 7-1 in Pacers last 8 games as an underdog. 10* play on Golden State Warriors. |
|||||||
12-11-21 | Jazz -5 v. Wizards | 123-98 | Win | 100 | 11 h 52 m | Show | |
JAZZ @ WIZARDS NBA MONEYMAKER The Utah Jazz are on fire, and they're coming into this game looking to close out a four-game road trip undefeated. They are 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings in Capital One Arena, and the slumping Wizards are not playing well right now. The Wizards needed overtime to overcome Detroit as a five-point road favorite in their last game, and they had dropped three straight games prior to that. Washington has major issues on the defensive end, and that'll spell disaster against this sharp-shooting Utah team that is No. 1 for field goal percentage and No. 3 for three-point percentage. 8* play on Utah Jazz. |
|||||||
12-10-21 | Bucks -8.5 v. Rockets | Top | 123-114 | Win | 100 | 14 h 48 m | Show |
Mike's Top-rated 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Houston Rockets opened the season in a disastrous fashion, but they've shown resilience and are now riding a seven-game winning streak. I think that'll come to an end here though, with a blowout loss to reigning NBA champions Milwaukee. The Bucks have split their last four games and they have failed to cover the spread in four of their last five, but I expect a big outing from them here, after taking a 113-104 loss at Miami on Wednesday. 10* play on Milwaukee Bucks. |
|||||||
12-09-21 | Purdue v. Rutgers +13 | 68-70 | Win | 100 | 9 h 27 m | Show | |
PURDUE @ RUTGERS NCAAB MONEYMAKER The Rutgers Scarlet Knights took a big beating at Illinois last Friday, but I think we'll see better focus here against top-ranked Purdue. The Boilermakers just reached the No. 1 spot through a 77-70 triumph against Iowa on Friday, and I would not be surprised if they come out a bit flat here. Scarlet Knights are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games as a home underdog. 8* play on Rutgers Scarlet Knights. |
|||||||
12-08-21 | Celtics +3.5 v. Clippers | 111-114 | Win | 100 | 14 h 57 m | Show | |
LATE-NIGHT CELTICS @ CLIPPERS NBA MONEYMAKER The Boston Celtics took a beating by the Lakers here at Staples Center last night, but I think they'll do better here against the Clippers the following night. Playing on back-to-back nights has not affected the Celtics who are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 0 days rest and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 road games. The Clippers are in a potential flat spot, coming off a 102-90 triumph at Portland. They are 6-14-1 ATS in their last 21 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games as a home favorite. 8* play on Boston Celtics. |

12-08-21 | Nets -6.5 v. Rockets | Top | 104-114 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 5 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NETS @ ROCKETS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Brooklyn Nets will be playing on no rest after defeating the Mavs in Dallas last night, I don't think they need fresh legs to take care of business against this Rockets team. Sure, the Rockets are coming into this contest riding a six-game winning streak, but it's somewhat of a fraudulent heater and they have not played a quality team like Brooklyn during that stretch. The Nets have dominated this series in recent years, and they've had plenty of success against the spread in Houston, going 6-1 ATS over the last seven visits. 10* play on Brooklyn Nets. |
|||||||
12-07-21 | College of Charleston v. Tulane -4 | 86-72 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 11 m | Show | |
TUESDAY NIGHT COLLEGE BASKETBALL BANKROLL BUILDER The Charleston Cougars are 5-3 SU and 6-2 ATS on the season, but I think they're in for a tough one when going on the road to take on Tulane Tuesday night. The Cougars took an overtime loss at Furman in their last game while the Green Wave routed Alcorn State their 85-64 last time out. This is a revenge spot for Tulane who fell 81-77 at Charleston on November 30. The bookmakers have made Tulane a home favorite for a reason, and we can note that the Cougars are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog. 8* play on Tulane Green Wave. |
|||||||
12-07-21 | Nets -2.5 v. Mavs | Top | 102-99 | Win | 100 | 11 h 44 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY - NETS @ MAVS The Brooklyn Nets have won eight of 10 away games on the season while Dallas is only 6-5 SU at home and 0-4 ATS in its last 4 games as a home underdog. I expect a strong performance from the Nets who had won back-to-back games and six of their last seven before taking an 111-107 home loss to the Bulls in their last game. The Mavs are trending in the wrong direction with losses in four of their last five games (all home losses). 10* play on Brooklyn Nets. |

8* play on Maryland. |

12-02-21 | Oregon State v. California -2.5 | Top | 61-73 | Win | 100 | 17 h 54 m | Show |
MIKE'S LATE-NIGHT PAC-12 CBB BOOKIE BREAKER BAILOUT The Oregon State Beavers are 1-6 SU and ATS on the season. The Beavers have lost three games outright as favorites, and tonight they'll face a Cal team that has been undervalued by the bookmakers all season and has covered the spread in five of its last six games. Neither team has looked all that great when on the ball, but note that Cal is averaging 70.5 points per game at home while Oregon State has averaged only 54.0 points per game away from home. 10* play on California Golden Bears. |
|||||||
12-01-21 | Kings v. Clippers -7.5 | 124-115 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 14 m | Show | |
LATE NIGHT KINGS @ CLIPPERS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER We should see a pumped up Clippers team here as they'll be looking to bounce back from a couple of home losses. The most recent one was particularly disappointing as they lost 123-104 as a 7-point favorite against New Orleans. The Clippers are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games following a double-digit loss at home, and the Kings are in a tough spot, playing on no rest after losing to a shorthanded Lakers team Tuesday night. 8* play on Los Angeles Clippers. |
|||||||
12-01-21 | Mavs -2.5 v. Pelicans | 139-107 | Win | 100 | 9 h 43 m | Show | |
MAVS @ PELS SIDE The Dallas Mavericks won the first meeting of the season 108-92 on November 8. I expect them to snap back from back-to-back home losses while New Orleans is in a potential flat spot after closing a three-game road trip with a 19-point win at LA Clippers. Mavericks are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. Mavericks are 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings. 8* play on Dallas Mavericks. |
|||||||
12-01-21 | Rockets v. Thunder -3 | Top | 114-110 | Loss | -105 | 15 h 6 m | Show |
NBA GAME OF THE WEEK - MIKE'S TOP-RATED MAJOR MONEYMAKER The Houston Rockets are coming off three straight wins, including a 102-89 triumph against this very same OKC team a couple of days ago. All those three wins came at home though, and now the Rockets go on the road where they are 0-11 SU on the season. The Rockets are 0-2 ATS away from home when getting spotted less than double-digits, and the Thunder are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 home games. Note that while the Thunder have dropped six consecutive games and eight of their last nine, they've covered the spread in six of their last seven. OKC won 101-89 when they hosted the Rockets on November 17, and I expect them to avenge the most recent loss with a big outing tonight. 10* play on Oklahoma City Thunder. |
|||||||
11-30-21 | Minnesota -2.5 v. Pittsburgh | 54-53 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 53 m | Show | |
CBB GOPHERS VS PANTHERS SIDE The Pittsburgh Panthers are only 2-4 SU and against the spread on the season, and they suffered all four of their four defeats by double figures. The Panthers have struggled immensely to get buckets, averaging only 62.2 points per game (325th). Minnesota has held opponents to 59.6 points per game (43rd) and it has held each of its last two opponents to less than 50 points. 8* play on Minnesota Golden Gophers. |
|||||||
11-29-21 | Blazers v. Jazz -7.5 | Top | 107-129 | Win | 100 | 15 h 57 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY (SIDE) The Portland Trail Blazers have lost nine of 10 road games straight up and they are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games as a road underdog. The Jazz are 5-1 ATS as a favorite of fewer than eight points this season. In their last game, the Jazz put a 127-105 beating on New Orleans, they are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. Portland is one of the worst teams in the league on the defensive end, and I don't see them keeping this one close. 10* play on Utah Jazz. |
|||||||
11-29-21 | Cavs +5.5 v. Mavs | 114-96 | Win | 100 | 12 h 7 m | Show | |
CAVS @ MAVS SIDE The Cleveland Cavaliers are coming off a blowout win against Orlando. They are 8-1 ATS in their last nine games following a ATS win, and I think they're getting too many points to pass up when visiting Dallas Monday night. The Cavs are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games as an underdog, and Dallas has a tendency to disappoint as a favorite, especially at home where the Mavs are just 3-9 ATS in their last 12 outings. 8* play on Cleveland Cavaliers. |
|||||||
11-28-21 | Bucks -2.5 v. Pacers | 118-100 | Win | 100 | 17 h 31 m | Show | |
BUCKS @ PACERS SIDE The reigning NBA champion Milwaukee Bucks are rolling, coming into this contest on a six-game winning streak and covering the spread in three straight games. They are 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings with the Pacers, who while they've also been playing well lately, are unlikely to keep this one within the number. 8* play on Milwaukee Bucks. |
|||||||
11-28-21 | Warriors -2 v. Clippers | Top | 105-90 | Win | 100 | 15 h 57 m | Show |
NBA BIG BET ALERT - MIKE'S WESTERN CONF GAME OF THE MONTH (SIDE) The Golden State Warriors are 17-2 SU and 14-4-1 against the spread on the season. They have the best scoring defense in the league with only 100.9 points allowed per game on average, and the Clippers are averaging only 106.0 points per game. The Clippers have lost three of their last five straight up, despite closing as favorites in each game. In their last game, the Clippers defeated Detroit 107-96 but they are only 6-13-1 ATS in their last 20 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. 10* play on Golden State Warriors. |
|||||||
11-27-21 | Pelicans v. Jazz -12.5 | Top | 105-127 | Win | 100 | 11 h 51 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* LATE-NIGHT PELICANS @ JAZZ BOOKIE BREAKER The Utah Jazz should be highly motivated after taking a 98-97 home loss to this very same Pelicans team only yesterday. The Pelicans are still only 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog, and they're not nearly as deep as the Jazz who I really expect will dominate this game from start to finish. 10* play on Utah Jazz. |
|||||||
11-27-21 | Hornets -6 v. Rockets | 143-146 | Loss | -108 | 10 h 43 m | Show | |
HORNETS @ ROCKETS SATURDAY NIGHT NBA BOOKIE BOMBER Great spot to fade the Houston Rockets who have won only two games all season, one of them on in their last game on Nov 24 when they defeated Chicago. The Hornets are playing well at the moment, having won eight of their last nine straight up and they have covered the spread in seven of those nine games. Hornets are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games as a road favorite, and I think they'll get this one despite playing on no rest after defeating Minnesota Friday night. 8* play on Charlotte Hornets. |
|||||||
11-27-21 | Tenn-Martin v. Western Kentucky -19.5 | 66-81 | Loss | -106 | 12 h 3 m | Show | |
SUPER EARLY NCAAB BANKROLL BUILDER The Tenn-Martin Skyhawks are coming off a 103-43 triumph over subdivision Carver Bible College, but there is a massive step up in competition for today when they'll take on the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers. Western Kentucky played a fairly tough schedule through its first four games, but it beat Alabama A&M by 26 points as an 18-point favorite last time out. I expect the Hilltoppers to steamroll the Skyhawks. Skyhawks are 6-21 ATS in their last 27 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. Hilltoppers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400. 8* play on Western Kentucky Hilltoppers. |

11-26-21 | Bucks -3.5 v. Nuggets | Top | 120-109 | Win | 100 | 12 h 8 m | Show |
BUCKS @ NUGGETS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Milwaukee Bucks are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games as a road favorite and I think they'll be able to take advantage of a shorthanded Denver team. Denver's injury list: Hyland PG Doub Fri - Ankle Jokic C Ques Fri - Wrist Dozier SG out for season - Knee Porter Jr. PF Out indefinitely - Back Cancar SF Out indefinitely - Hip Murray SG Out indefinitely - Knee The Nuggets are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games overall. 10* play on Milwaukee Bucks. |

CELTICS @ SPURS SIDE The Boston Celtics are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as a road favorite while the San Antonio Spurs are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as an underdog. The Celtics took a 123-104 beating by Brooklyn in their last game, but they are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up loss. 8* play on Boston Celtics. |
|||||||
11-26-21 | Wizards -7.5 v. Thunder | 101-99 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 11 m | Show | |
WIZARDS @ THUNDER SIDE The Oklahoma City Thunder have covered the spread in 12 of their 18 games on the season, but I think they're in for a tough one here against Washington Friday night. The Wizards are 13-6-1 ATS in their last 20 games as a favorite and 7-0 ATS in their last 7 Friday games. They'll be looking to bounce back from back-to-back losses as favorites. 8* play on Washington Wizards. |
|||||||
11-26-21 | Bulls -8.5 v. Magic | 123-88 | Win | 100 | 10 h 6 m | Show | |
BULLS @ MAGIC SIDE The Chicago Bulls are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games as a road favorite. They're coming off back-to-back losses, including a humiliating loss as a 9.5-point favorite at Houston in their last game. The Magic have lost four straight games and they are 3-13-1 ATS in their last 17 home games. 8* play on Chicago Bulls. |

SUNS @ KNICKS SIDE The red hot Phoenix Suns have won 14 in a row. The New York Knicks are coming off a 106-100 triumph over the Lakers, but they have alternated losses and wins in their last six games. Knicks are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up win. Suns are 14-3 ATS in their last 17 Friday games. 8* play on Phoenix Suns. |

TOP-RATED 10* BLAZERS @ KINGS NBA BAILOUT The Kings are reeling, coming into this game on a four-game losing streak and they have covered the spread in only one of their last nine games. The Blazers on the other hand have heated up lately and they are 5-0-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite. Sure, the Blazers bring a 1-7 away record into this matchup, but note that they are 5-2 ATS in the last 7 head-to-head meetings in Sacramento. 10* play on Portland Trail Blazers. |
|||||||
11-24-21 | Hawks -3.5 v. Spurs | 124-106 | Win | 100 | 13 h 20 m | Show | |
HAWKS @ SPURS SIDE The Spurs are averaging 117.0 points per game home at AT&T Center, but also allowing 115.3 points per game. They're coming into this game on a slide, having lost five in a row straight up and they had failed to cover the spread in four straight prior to just barely covering the number in a loss to Phoenix last time out. The Hawks routed the Thunder last time out. They are 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite. Over is 9-4 in Hawks last 13 games as a road favorite. Over is 7-1 in Spurs last 8 games as a home underdog. 8* play on Atlanta Hawks. |

11-23-21 | Heat -9.5 v. Pistons | Top | 100-92 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 45 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Detroit Pistons have one of the worst records in the league, and they are 3-9 ATS in conference games and 6-14 ATS in their last 20 games as an underdog (dating back to last season). Tonight the Pistons host a Miami team that has been a major positive surprise, and while this is a big number to cover, note that The Heat are 5-1 ATS as favorites of six or more points this season. They've been asked to cover nine or more twice, and covered both times. 10* play on Miami Heat. |
|||||||
11-22-21 | Toledo v. Charlotte +2.5 | 98-86 | Loss | -110 | 1 h 0 m | Show | |
SUPER EARLY TOLEDO VS CHARLOTTE BOOKIE BU$TER The Charlotte 49ers are an undefeated 3-0 on the season, including an outright win as a 2-point underdog at Appalachian State last time out. Toledo took an 80-59 beating at Oakland as a 2-point dog in its last game, and I think the Rockets are in for an another tough game here in the opening game of the Nassau Championship Tourney. Toledo has struggled to get easy buckets, and Charlotte has been solid on the defensive end. 8* play on Charlotte. |
|||||||
11-20-21 | 76ers v. Blazers -5.5 | 111-118 | Win | 100 | 19 h 53 m | Show | |
TOP-RATED 10* SIXERS @ BLAZERS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Philadelphia 76ers just avoided a six-game skid with a 103-89 win at Denver a couple of days ago. This will be the dinged up Sixers' fourth straight game on the road and I think there's a good chance they'll come out flat. The Blazers are playing well at the moment, and they've had two full days of rest since defeating the Bulls on Wednesday. 76ers are 8-24-1 ATS in their last 33 games as a road underdog. Trail Blazers are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games as a home favorite. 10* play on Portland Trail Blazers. |
|||||||
11-20-21 | San Jose State v. Texas -27 | 45-79 | Win | 100 | 17 h 32 m | Show | |
SATURDAY NIGHT NCAAB BANKROLL BUILDER The San Jose St. Spartans are a perfect 3-0 against the spread on the season, including covering the number as a 19-point dog at Stanford, but I don't think they'll be able to hang around with Texas. The Spartans are allowing opponents to shoot 50.0% from the field and 34.8% from behind the arc, and Texas has the talent to make them pay for such sloppy defending. 8* play on Texas Longhorns. |

11-19-21 | Clippers -3.5 v. Pelicans | Top | 81-94 | Loss | -102 | 11 h 55 m | Show |
CLIPPERS @ PELICANS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY (SIDE) The Los Angeles Clippers will be playing on no rest after taking a 120-108 loss to Memphis Thursday night. They are 10-3-1 ATS in their last 14 games playing on 0 days rest, and I don't think they'll have too much trouble against a New Orleans team that has won only two of 16 games on the season. The Pelicans are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as an underdog. 10* play on Los Angeles Clippers. |
|||||||
11-19-21 | Brown +11 v. Creighton | 57-78 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 33 m | Show | |
FRIDAY AFTERNOON COLLEGE BASKETBALL HARDWOOD HAMMER The Creighton Bluejays are an undefeated 3-0 SU on the season but only 1-2 ATS. I think they're in for a tough one here against Brown in the first round of the Paradise Jam. The Bears have won three of four games on the season, and the loss is nothing to be ashamed of, losing by only seven as a 24.5-point underdog at North Carolina. I think they'll feel confident they can keep this close while this Creighton team can have a tendency of looking past weaker opponents, going 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a favorite. 8* play on Brown Bears. |

11-19-21 | St Bonaventure v. Clemson +4 | 68-65 | Win | 100 | 3 h 29 m | Show | |
ST. BONAVENTURE VS CLEMSON NCAAB BOOKIE BU$TER Two undefeated teams will clash here in the semifinal of the Shriners Children's Charleston Classic in Charleston, S.C. with the 4-0 Clemson Tigers taking on the 3-0 St. Bonaventure Bonnies. While the Bonnies had to come from behind to defeat Boise State in the opening round, Clemson made light work of Temple. I think Clemson will have the fresher legs, and we can note that the Tigers are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 neutral site games as an underdog. 8* play Clemson. |
|||||||
11-18-21 | Spurs +2.5 v. Wolves | Top | 90-115 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 57 m | Show |
SPURS @ WOLVES NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY I think we'll ee a reaction from the Spurs after getting beaten quite badly in three straight games. In their last game, the Spurs took a 106-92 loss to the Clippers in LA, but they are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 road games vs. a team with a losing home record, which they are facing here with the Wolves only 3-6 SU at home. Minnesota defeated Sacramento by 10 points in their last game, but they are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win and 0-7 ATS in their last 7 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. 10* play on San Antonio Spurs. |

CBB MAJOR WAGER ALERT - TOP-RATED 10* GAME OF THE WEEK The Marquette Golden Eagles are 3-0 SU on the season, but only 1-2 ATS. They are allowing 71.0 points per game (219th), and here they'll face an Ole Miss team that has scored 87.5 points per game through its first two games of the season. Marquette has struggled with its shooting from behind the arc, complete opposite of Ole Miss who has shot 39.2% (65th) from three-point land. I don't see Marquette keeping up with the Rebels' shooting. 10* play on Ole Miss Rebels. |

11-17-21 | George Mason +10.5 v. Maryland | 71-66 | Win | 101 | 9 h 24 m | Show | |
NCAAB SIDE #1 Maryland is 3-0 SU on the season but only 1-2 ATS. George Mason is 3-0 SU and ATS, and while this will be the Patriots' first game in the role of an underdog this season, I think they'll keep this close. The Terps have struggled to cover large numbers in the early goings, and they are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 home games. 8* play on George Mason. |
|||||||
11-16-21 | Hofstra +5 v. Iona | 74-82 | Loss | -108 | 11 h 37 m | Show | |
TUESDAY NIGHT COLLEGE BASKETBALL BOOKIE BU$TER The Hofstra Pride are 1-1 on the season, covering the spread both times as underdogs. In their last game, the Pride won 73-63 as a 4.5-point underdog at Duquesne, and I think they'll give Iona a big scare here Tuesday night. The Gaels have really struggled with their three-point shooting which will make it tough to pull away, and we can note that the Pride are 9-2-1 ATS in their last 12 games as an underdog and that the underdog is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings. 8* play on Hofstra Pride. |

TOP-RATED 10* MAGIC @ HAWKS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Hawks snapped a six-game losing streak with a dominant 20-point win against the reigning NBA champions Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday. Massive flat spot warning here as they take on a 3-10 Orlando team that is very easy to look past, especially with a tougher opponent in the NY Knicks on deck. I expect to see the Hawks playing down to the competition in this one and that the Magic will keep this close until the very end. 10* play on Orlando Magic. |

11-12-21 | Wolves +3.5 v. Lakers | 107-83 | Win | 100 | 22 h 27 m | Show | |
FRIDAY NIGHT NBA CONTRARIAN CRU$HER The Lakers are severely banged up, and each of their last two games has gone to overtime. I would not be surprised to see them gassed out and coming out completely flat here in this Friday night matchup with Minnesota. The Timberwolves have lost six straight games straight up and they are only 2-8 against the spread on the season, but I think they'll bring their A-game here to take advantage of this shorthanded Lakers team. Lakers are 3-12 ATS in their last 15 games as a home favorite. 8* play on Minnesota Timberwolves. |
|||||||
11-12-21 | Bucks v. Celtics +2 | 113-122 | Win | 100 | 14 h 33 m | Show | |
BUCKS @ CELTICS SIDE The shorthanded Bucks will have to do without star Khris Middleton, Brook Lopez, and Donte DiVincenzo while Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as probable after tweaking his ankle during Wednesday night's 112-100 win over the Knicks. Boston will be without Jaylen Brown who will miss his second straight game with a hamstring strain. The Celtics have been heating up though, winning three of their last four outright and covering the spread in four straight games. The Celtics are 21-9 ATS in their last 30 games as a home underdog and I'm happy to take the points on the home team in this matchup. 8* play on Boston Celtics. |

11-11-21 | Raptors +2 v. 76ers | Top | 115-109 | Win | 100 | 13 h 1 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* RAPTORS @ SIXERS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Raptors will play on no rest, but I think they'll snap back with a strong performance after taking a beating at Boston last night. They came into that game on two days rest, so one could argue that the Sixers are in a tougher scheduling spot as they'll be playing their third game in four nights. Additionally, Philly is shorthanded with several players sidelined, and I think the Raptors have a good chance of winning this one outright. 10* play on Toronto Raptors. |
|||||||
11-10-21 | Hornets +4.5 v. Grizzlies | Top | 118-108 | Win | 100 | 16 h 40 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* HORNETS @ GRIZZLIES NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Charlotte Hornets have dropped five straight games SU and ATS, but I think thye're undervalued here as they wrap up a five-game road trip to the Western Conference. They showed good fight in an OT loss to the Lakers last time out, and the Grizzlies are in a potential flat spot after winning three of their last four SU and ATS. 10* play on Charlotte Hornets. |
|||||||
11-10-21 | Raptors +2.5 v. Celtics | 88-104 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 4 m | Show | |
RAPTORS @ CELTICS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER The Raptors are an undefeated 4-0 on the road this season. They won 115-83 here at TD Garden on October 22, and I think they'll do it again here less than a month later. I think we'll see a reaction from the Raptors after dropping back-to-back home games to Cleveland and Brooklyn. The Celtics had won back-to-back games prior to a 107-104 loss at Dallas on Saturday, but they're still struggling to find their rhythm and note that the Celtics are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as a home favorite while the Raptors are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games as a road underdog. 8* play on Toronto Raptors. |

11-09-21 | Belmont -3 v. Ohio | 80-92 | Loss | -115 | 11 h 13 m | Show | |
COLLEGE BASKETBALL OPENING NIGHT HARDWOOD HAMMER Belmont is returning pretty much all of their key players from last season when they went 26-4. Ohio picked up 17 wins in 25 games last season, but the Bobcats have lost their top overall player in Jason Preston. I don't see Ohio State keeping up with a Belmont team that averaged 81.3 points per game last year, the 13th best scoring average in the nation. 8* play on Belmont. |
|||||||
11-08-21 | Hawks +3.5 v. Warriors | Top | 113-127 | Loss | -105 | 17 h 9 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* HAWKS @ WARRIORS LATE-NIGHT SHOWDOWN The Golden State Warriors are off to a red hot 7-1 straight up and 5-3 against the spread start to the year, and they're coming into this contest riding a three-game winning streak SU and ATS. The Atlanta Hawks meanwhile have won only four of 10 games on the season, and they have dropped each of their last three SU and ATS. This looks like a good spot to back Atlanta to get a W though. The Warriors will be playing on no rest after blowing the doors of the Rockets in a 120-107 triumph Sunday night while Atlanta has had a day off since opening a four-game road trip out west with a loss at Phoenix on Saturday. I think the betting market has overreacted to recent results, the Hawks are not this bad and I think they'll be fired up for this one. 10* play on Atlanta Hawks. |

11-05-21 | Nets v. Pistons +10 | Top | 96-90 | Win | 100 | 18 h 46 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NETS @ PISTONS TGIF NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Pistons took a home loss to Philadelphia last night. They failed to cover the spread, which sets up a favorable situation here against Brooklyn Friday night. Home teams that are underdogs of eight points or more and on a three-game losing streak against the spread are 25-15-1 (62.5%) ATS since the start of the 2016 season. Additionally, the Nets tend to play down to lesser competition, going only 5-12 ATS in their last 17 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400. 10* play on Detroit Pistons. |
|||||||
11-04-21 | 76ers v. Pistons +6 | 109-98 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 57 m | Show | |
SIXERS @ PISTONS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER The Pistons are a poor 2-5 ATS on the season, but I like their chances of even winning this one outright as they'll face a shorthanded Philly team that will be playing on no rest after defeating the Bulls last night. Ben Simmons has yet to take the floor for the Sixers this season, and it was announced on Wednesday that Tobias Harris has tested positive for COVID-19. Additionally, they'll be without starting wing Danny Green (left hamstring tightness). I think Detroit is undervalued due to their poor start to the season while one must wonder how much gas is left in the tank for Philly after taking down the Bulls last night. 8* play on Detroit Pistons. |
|||||||
11-03-21 | Pelicans +5 v. Kings | 99-112 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 53 m | Show | |
PELICANS @ KINGS NBA BAILOUT PLAY The Pelicans will be playing on no rest after blowing a 20-point lead in a 112-100 loss at Phoenix last night. I still think they'll be able to regroup and have enough gas left in the tank to challenge the Kings in Sacramento on Wednesday. The Kings tend to do better against the spread as underdogs rather than favorites, and they will also be playing on no rest after battling the Jazz in Utah last night. 8* play on New Orleans Pelicans. |
|||||||
11-03-21 | Nuggets +1.5 v. Grizzlies | Top | 106-108 | Loss | -108 | 13 h 51 m | Show |
NUGGETS @ GRIZZLIES NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Memphis Grizzlies are 4-3 SU and 5-2 ATS on the season, but I think the betting market got the spread for this game wrong. Sure, the Grizzlies defeated the Nuggets 106-97 here at FedExForum on Monday, but it's hard to beat this Nuggets team two games in a row, and they should be able to adjust and have a better plan for how to stop Ja Morant this time around. 10* play on Denver Nuggets. |
|||||||
11-03-21 | Bulls +3.5 v. 76ers | 98-103 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 4 m | Show | |
BULLS @ SIXERS SIDE The Bulls are off to a red hot 6-1 start, including wins at Toronto and Boston. The Sixers are 0-5-1 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600 and I think there's a chance they come out flat here in the final game of a four-game homestand. Joel Embiid is expected to return to the lineup Wednesday after being rested in Monday's 10-point triumph over Portland but they will be without Danny Green (hamstring) and Tobias Harris who is out due to health and safety protocols. 8* play on Chicago Bulls. |
|||||||
11-03-21 | Raptors +3.5 v. Wizards | 109-100 | Win | 100 | 10 h 1 m | Show | |
RAPTORS @ WIZARDS SIDE The Raptors are an undefeated 3-0 on the road this season with wins at Boston, Indiana and New York. They are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as a road underdog, and here they'll be looking to avenge an opening-night home loss to Washington on October 20. They're coming into this game riding a four-game winning streak and they have won four straight head-to-heads in Washington. 8* play on Toronto Raptors. |
|||||||
11-03-21 | Celtics -6.5 v. Magic | 92-79 | Win | 100 | 8 h 32 m | Show | |
CELTICS @ MAGIC SIDE Great spot to back the Celtics to snap back from three straight losses SU and ATS. They've owned Orlando in recent years, winning six straight meetings straight up while covering the spread in five of those contests. The Magic are in a potential flat spot after putting an end to a four-game skid with a blowout win at Minnesota in their last game. Magic are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up win. Magic are 1-9-1 ATS in their last 11 home games. 8* play on Boston Celtics. |
|||||||
11-02-21 | Kings +9 v. Jazz | Top | 113-119 | Win | 100 | 17 h 8 m | Show |
TOP-RATED KINGS @ JAZZ NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Jazz are 5-1 SU and ATS on the season but I think they are asked to cover too many points in this matchup with the Kings Tuesday night. This is a potential flat spot for Utah who is coming off a 107-95 win at reigning NBA champions Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday. Sacramento on the other hand will be looking to snap back from a loss at Dallas. The Kings are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up loss and 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games. 10* play on Sacramento Kings. |
|||||||
10-31-21 | Blazers v. Hornets +1.5 | Top | 113-125 | Win | 100 | 7 h 25 m | Show |
BLAZERS @ HORNETS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY Good spot to fade the Blazers who are coming off a massive revenge win over the Clippers after getting humiliated in LA earlier in the week. The Hornets on the other hand should come out with more motivation after taking a 15-point loss at Miami in their last game. Hornets are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. 10* play on Charlotte Hornets. |
|||||||
10-29-21 | Hornets +5.5 v. Heat | 99-114 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 53 m | Show | |
HORNETS @ HEAT SIDE This will be a very interesting matchup between a Charlotte team that is averaging an NBA-best 121.2 points per game and the best defense in the league. Through their first four games of the season, the Heat have held opponents to 95.0 points per game, but they are allowing opponents plenty of three-point attempts and Charlotte has the players to take advantage. Heat are 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. 8* play on Charlotte Hornets. |
|||||||
10-29-21 | Magic +8 v. Raptors | 109-110 | Win | 100 | 11 h 24 m | Show | |
MAGIC @ RAPTORS SIDE The Magic are only 1-4 SU and ATS on the season, but I think they're getting way too many points to pass on at Toronto Friday night. The Raptors are coming off a 118-100 win over Indiana, but they have looked far from impressive through their first five games, and they are 1-7-1 ATS in their last 9 home games while the Magic are 18-7 ATS in their last 25 road games vs. a team with a losing home record. 8* play on Orlando Magic. |
