MIKE'S MAVS/KNICKS NBA TOTAL BOOKIE BU$TER The Dallas Mavericks have seen their last four games go under the total, and I think this number looks a bit high again when they visit the New York Knicks Thursday night. The Knickerbockers are bruised up big time; Julius Randle (shoulder), OG Anunoby (elbow) and Quentin Grimes (knee) will sit out while Jalen Brunson (ankle) is listed as questionable, and the Mavs are far from healthy as well. Under is 9-0 in Mavericks last 9 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. Under is 7-1 in Knicks last 8 games as a home underdog. 3* PLAY ON THE UNDER.

5* MAX BET ALERT - WOLVES/SIXERS NBA GAME OF THE WEEK The 20-5 Minnesota Timberwolves have a better record than the 18-8 Philadelphia 76ers, but I think regression is coming the Wolves' way. The 76ers are 22-6 ATS in their last 28 games as a favorite of 0.5-4.5 and 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games as a home favorite of 0.5-4.5. The Timberwolves are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog. 5* PLAY ON THE 76ERS.

MIKE'S 4* SUNS/BLAZERS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Phoenix Suns won 120-107 when they hosted Portland about a month ago, and I think they're undervalued by the betting market here after going 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games. The Blazers covered the spread in a 118-114 loss to Golden State on Sunday, but they are still only 6-20 ATS in their last 26 games as a home underdog and the Suns are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a losing home record. 4* PLAY ON THE SUNS.

The Spurs are 1-9 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up win and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS win.

The under is 5-1 in Suns last 6 games as an underdog. The under is 5-1 in Lakers last 6 games as a favorite. 5* PLAY ON UNDER.
