08-04-20	Celtics -3 v. Heat		106-112	Loss	-105	6 h 33 m	Show
The Celtics have been playing well during the restart, but we have yet to see a breakout game from them. We think we will see that tonight. Miami has won and covered in the last three meetings this season, and we expect to see a motivated Boston club after a mediocre performance to start the NBA back up again. We think there’s a great chance they win this one by 7+.
08-04-20	Magic v. Pacers +1.5		109-120	Win	100	5 h 3 m	Show
Both teams are in strong form, but we think the Pacers are the better ballclub, and we had them favored in this game by 2+ in our handicapping. So there is nice value here getting points with the team we expect to win. Both clubs have faced pretty easy opponents, but at least Indiana showed us a lot in beating the Sixers as underdogs, while the Magic have wins over Brooklyn and Sacramento, two of the worst clubs in The Bubble. The Pacers have won each of the last two meetings, and we expect them to make it three in a row today.
08-04-20	Mavs -5.5 v. Kings		114-110	Loss	-107	2 h 33 m	Show
Dallas hasn’t played well to begin the restart and they have had some bad luck, but this feels like a “get right” game to us. The Kings defense has been one of the worst in the restart, and the Dallas offense should have a big day today. The Kings are giving up around 130+ per game during the restart. Dallas will be focused here and we think this one could be a total blowout.
08-03-20	Lakers v. Jazz +6.5	Top	116-108	Loss	-105	9 h 36 m	Show
We are getting used to these slow starts from Utah. They are winless in the restart thus far and haven’t played to near their potential. But we think they will be ultra motivated to get that win tonight. Their place in the postseason is secure, but they need some momentum heading into the postseason, and a win here would erase the two losses that proceeded it on a mental level. The Lakers are all but guaranteed the No. 1 seed and this finish to the regular season is meant only as practice time for the playoffs. We just don’t see them being that motivated for wins now, while Utah really needs this game more. And the Lakers are always a public team that gets shaded odds from the bookies, and that is even more so with the restart as bettors have been starved for action and are very active (the Lakers/Clippers game on opening night of restart was by far the biggest bet NBA game of the season). We expect a close game here and will gladly take the points on this inflated number.
08-02-20	Mavs -6 v. Suns		115-117	Loss	-110	9 h 0 m	Show
We just think this one is a mismatch and we are surprised the line here is not 7 or more. It might move to that as the bettors seem to also like Dallas here, so don’t wait to place your bet. This is another situation where a very good team doesn’t want to start 0-2 in the Bubble. Dallas did just about everything right in their first game and had control of that one against Houston before faltering late and losing in OT. The Mavs are built to win now, while the Suns are at least a year and a couple players away. We think Dallas will take out their frustrations from the Houston loss on the Suns here.
08-02-20	Blazers v. Celtics -4		124-128	Push	0	4 h 31 m	Show
Boston had about the toughest first game back that any team in the Eastern Conference could face as they lost to Milwaukee. They played pretty well in that matchup, however, and we just don’t see them losing their first two games to open this restart. In a very unique situation like this, coaching can make a big difference, and for our money, Boston has some of the best coaching in the league. And we think Boston will be motivated in this one after playing well in Game 1 yet getting the loss.
08-02-20	Wizards +3.5 v. Nets		110-118	Loss	-106	2 h 1 m	Show
We faded the Nets in their first game back, and we will continue that trend until their play shows us otherwise. This just seems like the one NBA team that doesn’t really want to be here in the NBA bubble. The Wizards are WAY behind the Nets in the standings, as Brooklyn currently holds down the No. 8 seed. But they have a real chance to make up some ground here on the team with the best chance to totally falter in the bubble. Washington has issues of their own. But they should be more motivated. And we had this game handicapped at PK, so there is some nice value in getting points here. Washington has also won and covered in three straight meetings.
08-01-20	76ers v. Pacers +6	Top	121-127	Win	100	6 h 15 m	Show
This looks like a very public line to us. Philly is the more popular team here, but these teams have identical records. But bettors like Philly more, hence the big line here. Oladipo was active in the shootaround this morning and there are indications he could play tonight. He’s Indiana’s best player and would give the team a huge boost. But the main reason we like this pick is because the Sixers have been so bad away from home this season. In the friendly confines of their home arena they are 29-2. On the road they are 10-24 this season. These are some strange circumstances, but we just can’t trust the Sixers to be laying this many points against a comparable team when we haven’t seen if they can shake their funk of playing away from home. The Pacers are 13-6 ATS in the last 19 meetings, and we think they could challenge for the outright win here.
07-31-20	Magic -6.5 v. Nets	Top	128-118	Win	100	2 h 14 m	Show
Of just about any team in the Bubble, Brooklyn seems like one that really doesn’t want to be there. They have tons of defections and injuries, and this team is a skeleton crew in Orlando. They are currently the No. 7 team, and Orlando is No. 8, so this is a great chance for the Magic to jump the Nets and avoid a first-round matchup with Milwaukee. That is plenty of motivation in this game. This isn’t a standard home game for the Magic with the Pandemic, but they should be more comfortable here in their home city. Orlando was playing well before the hiatus, and this team has a much more stable roster. We think the oddsmakers will adjust on Brooklyn and they will be almost double-digit favorites in most of the games they play. We thought this line should be double digits, and there is some nice value here.
07-30-20	Jazz v. Pelicans -2	Top	106-104	Loss	-105	5 h 1 m	Show
All the motivation lies with the Pelicans here as they need to win to punch their playoff ticket. This team has a lot of talent and they are a good bet to make the postseason. But they have no time to wait to ease into this bizarre bubble situation. They have to win. Utah is in and they can spend their 8 games left in the regular season getting prepared for the postseason. Zion is a gametime call today. The odds will change whether he plays or not. But lock in at this number as this is a solid one even without the rookie.
03-11-20	California +10 v. Stanford		63-51	Win	100	10 h 43 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #647 California over Stanford (9p.m., Wednesday, March 11 PAC12N) This Bay Area battle should be closer than the experts believe. The Bears beat the Cardinal once this season and despite having the least talent in the league they managed to win 11 conference games this season. The underdog is 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings between Cal and Stanford. The Cardinal is 4-9 ATS in their last 13 neutral site games.
03-11-20	Boston University v. Colgate -7		64-61	Loss	-110	8 h 10 m	Show
5 Unit Play. Take #308374 Colgate over Boston (7:30p.m., Wednesday, March 11 CBSSN) The top two teams in the Patriot League are set to do battle tonight on the home floor of the Raiders. Colgate has beaten Boston twice this season and both of those wins have come over tonight’s posted number. The Terriers are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games. The Raiders are 20-8 ATS in their last 28 games against teams with a winning record. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
03-11-20	Iowa State +6.5 v. Oklahoma State		71-72	Win	100	8 h 41 m	Show
3 Unit Play. Take #663 Iowa State over Oklahoma State (7p.m., Wednesday, March 11 ESPNU) The Pokes played their best game of the season last time out and I just do not believe they can shoot it that well again on Wednesday. The Cyclones are struggling down the stretch without Tyrese Haliburton but I just believe that they will put up a fight in this game. But this play is more about going against OK State. Iowa State is 9-4 ATS in their last 13 neutral site games as an underdog. Iowa State is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games after a victory in their previous game.
03-10-20	Nets +10 v. Lakers		104-102	Win	100	9 h 13 m	Show
This is a real sandwich game for the Lakers. They are coming off their big win over the Clippers on Saturday in probably their biggest win of the season. They beat the best team from the East before that in a win over the Bucks. Now they got out of conference again for the Nets, who have no hope this season. This isn’t a big game for LA. However, their next three games are against teams they could see in the postseason: Houston, Denver and Utah. Just don’t think the focus will be there for them tonight and this is an inflated line to begin with.
03-10-20	Clippers v. Warriors UNDER 226.5		131-107	Loss	-100	9 h 10 m	Show
The Clippers are rounding into playoff form and they have been playing some of the best defense in the NBA lately. We think there is a possibility this game is a blowout, which would fare well for the under. The Clippers have gone under in three straight and in six of their last eight, and we don’t think the oddsmakers have adjusted yet to how strong this team has been on the defensive end. Five of the last eight for GSW have gone under as well, and we think this is another inflated total.
03-10-20	Suns v. Blazers -4.5		105-121	Win	100	9 h 43 m	Show
We think that revenge is overrated in the NBA as a handicapping angle, but we do think it comes into play when the teams have met recently. That’s the case here as the Blazers lost by 10 on Friday in the desert. The Blazers are in hot pursuit of a playoff spot and losing to a team like the Suns twice in a week would be a disaster. We think they come to play tonight, and we think they are the better team.
03-10-20	Northeastern +2 v. Hofstra		61-70	Loss	-105	8 h 48 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #613 Northeastern over Hofstra (7p.m., Tuesday, March 10 CBSSN) The Pride have never made the NCAA Tournament as a member of the CAA and this is the game that trips them up. Hofstra is 2-0 against Northeastern this season, but both games were close and I just do not believe they are good enough to beat this team three times in one season. This game will go down to the wire and expect the Huskies to win it straight-up. The underdog is 15-7 ATS (1 push) in the last 23 games between Northeastern and Hofstra.
03-09-20	Bucks v. Nuggets UNDER 222.5		95-109	Win	100	8 h 2 m	Show
These are two Top 10 defensive teams and we think this total is a tad too high. We had this one handicapped at 217, so we think there is some nice value here. The Bucks are trending to the under lately with a 6-1 mark in their last seven games. They are on a back-to-back here, and the under is 5-0 in their last five on the second leg of a B2B. We think both teams will be amped up for this game and there should be a lot of intensity on the defensive end.
03-09-20	Delaware v. Hofstra -3		61-75	Win	100	7 h 33 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #866 Hofstra over Delaware (6p.m., Monday, March 9 CBSSN) The rubber match between Hofstra and Delaware takes place Monday night in Washington D.C. Hofstra is the No. 1 seed and I believe they will win this game convincingly. They have won 10 of their last 11 games including a 16 point victory at Delaware a few weeks ago. The Blue Hens had a difficult game yesterday against a solid Charleston team and I do not expect them to have much left in the tank for this game. Hofstra advances to the CAA Championship Game and we collect with them in a big way. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
03-08-20	Northeastern v. Towson +2		72-62	Loss	-105	9 h 13 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #854 Towson +2 over Northeastern (8:30p.m., Sunday, March 8) The Tigers are the underdog in this game despite finishing higher in the standings and beating them last in the last game each team played. This is the rubber match as both teams won games as the visitor during the regular season. The underdog has covered the spread in 5 of the last 6 meetings between Northeastern and Towson. The Huskies are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games as a favorite. The Tigers are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games following a victory in their previous game.
03-08-20	Lafayette v. Colgate -10.5		64-89	Win	100	3 h 40 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #308330 Colgate -10.5 over Lafayette (2p.m., Sunday, March 8 CBSSN) The semifinals of the Patriot League take place on the home floor of the higher seed in each game. Colgate gets to host Lafayette and they will win this game by double digits. Just no way the Leopards can beat them three times in one season. The Raiders are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 home games. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
03-08-20	Michigan v. Maryland -4		70-83	Win	100	1 h 49 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #832 Maryland -4 over Michigan (12p.m., Sunday, March 8 FOX) Maryland is playing for a regular season Big 10 Championship and despite losing two straight games I expect them to come on strong on Senior Day. Maryland has the better offensive team in this match-up and sooner or later they will make jump shots and playing at home is always a huge advantage in the Big 10. Michigan is 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games as a road underdog.
03-07-20	76ers v. Warriors -1.5		114-118	Win	100	7 h 10 m	Show
We can’t underscore the fact of what positive results Steph Curry brings to this team. He is one of the all-time greats and makes everyone around him better. His minutes will be restricted, but the time he is on the court will make a big difference for this team. And just being on the bench when he is rested will pump up his teammates. The Sixers have been better on the road lately, but we aren’t convinced they have their road woes figured out yet. We think Curry will lift his team to victory tonight.
03-07-20	Hawks v. Grizzlies -6.5		101-118	Win	100	7 h 40 m	Show
Both teams are coming in on a back-to-back, but Memphis is the better team and at home, and they are the more motivated club as well. And we like to back a good team off a bad loss and that is certainly the case here with Memphis getting embarrassed in a 25+-point blowout in Dallas. But they take a big step down in competition here. The Hawks have won only six road games all season. We like that this line is under the NBA key number of 7, and we think the home team cruises to victory tonight.
03-07-20	Jazz v. Pistons UNDER 210.5		111-105	Loss	-106	6 h 41 m	Show
Utah comes in on a back-to-back and this is their fourth road game of the current trip. We don’t see them putting up too many points tonight. Their point total has decreased in each of the last four games, and it hit under the century mark last night in a win at Boston with 99 points scored. This team expended a lot of energy in that game and we don’t think they will have much left here in Detroit. The Pistons aren’t a very good team, but they are much better defensively than on the offensive end.
03-07-20	Oklahoma State v. Texas -3	Top	81-59	Loss	-116	17 h 47 m	Show
10 Unit Play. Take #648 Texas over Oklahoma State (4p.m., Saturday, March 7 ESPN2) Texas has had a remarkable turnaround of late and now have a chance to make the NCAA Tournament. They already beat Oklahoma State earlier this season in Stillwater and expect them to complete the season sweep of them Saturday afternoon in Austin. Texas has won 5 straight games and 4 of those games have come against teams better than the Pokes. Oklahoma State has won 2 straight games, but those games came out home against the bottom two teams in the Big 12. Texas wins this game and earns a top 3 seed in the Big 12 Conference Tournament.
03-06-20	Wyoming +16 v. Utah State		82-89	Win	100	11 h 27 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #885 Wyoming +15.5 over Utah State (11:30p.m., Friday, March 6 CBSSN) The Cowboys are two wins away from a 16 seed in the NCAA Tournament but will likely have to face the two best teams in the league to accomplish this feat. The Aggies have not been playing well of late struggling with a bad New Mexico team in their last two games. They were lucky to win last night, and I see them winning tonight but not by the posted number. Wyoming has covered the spread in 7 straight games. Utah State is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 neutral site games. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
03-06-20	Bucks +1.5 v. Lakers		103-113	Loss	-104	9 h 28 m	Show
Just think the Bucks are the superior team here and they will be motivated tonight, so we think it’s great to get points here. We actually had them handicapped as a slight favorite, so we think there is nice value here tonight. The Bucks are 5-1 ATS in their last six against teams with a winning percentage above .600, and we think they bring their A Game here in the marquee game of the night.
03-06-20	Blazers -3.5 v. Suns		117-127	Loss	-107	8 h 54 m	Show
The Suns showed some promise at points in the season, but this team looks to be playing out the string now, as they have lost four straight, all at home. Phoenix didn’t cover in one of those contests. Portland has won and covered two straight, and they have Damian Lillard back in the fold, and he gives the Blazers a chance to win every game. This team has a lot more motivation tonight as they make a push for the playoffs. They are in the No. 9 spot currently so should take every game from here on out as a must win.
03-06-20	Heat v. Pelicans -1.5		104-110	Win	100	7 h 54 m	Show
Miami is a pretty good team this season, but they have been pretty bad overall on the road (13-18 on the season). Miami comes in on a four-game winning streak, but those games were all at home, and we think as a result they are overvalued here on the road Friday night. New Orleans has lost three straight and four of five, but they have had a very tough schedule recently. We think this is a good chance for them to bounce back tonight. Miami has not been good lately on the road against teams with a losing record (1-6 ATS).
03-06-20	Siena v. Monmouth -1		86-72	Loss	-115	7 h 57 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #842 Monmouth -1.5 over Siena (7p.m., Friday, March 6 ESPN+) The one bid regular season MAAC ends today for these teams and expect the Hawks to win 3 straight games and possible move up the standing. 64% of the money is coming in on the home team and Sienna is just 2-10 ATS in their last 12 road games. The Hawks are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games played on Friday.
03-06-20	Yale v. Dartmouth +6.5		72-61	Loss	-103	7 h 56 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #850 Dartmouth +7 over Yale (7p.m., Friday, March 6) The Bulldogs will qualify for the conference tournament next week but are looking for an outright regular season title with two wins the next two days. The Bulldogs are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games. The Big Green is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games. Expect this game to go down to the wire and we will collect with the under.
03-06-20	Georgia Tech v. Clemson OVER 131		65-62	Loss	-117	7 h 54 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #854 Over 131 in Georgia Tech @ Clemson (7p.m., Friday, March 6 ESPN2) Georgia Tech has gone over the posted total in 4 straight road games. Clemson has gone over the posted total in 7 of their last 8 home games. Expect a high scoring game tonight and we will not worry if Clemson can cover the spread and instead just collect with the over.
03-06-20	Western Michigan v. Central Michigan -7		68-85	Win	100	7 h 53 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #858 Central Michigan -7 over Western Michigan (7p.m., Friday, March 6 ESPN3) This is a battle of two last place teams yet the Chippewas are a big favorite to end their losing streak. That is usually a good sign to play the favorite, as they already won at Western Michigan this season.
03-05-20	Clippers +1 v. Rockets	Top	120-105	Win	100	7 h 18 m	Show
Both teams are playing well but the Clippers are healthy and they are the superior team when both teams are at full strength. They have had some problems with the Rockets this season, so they will want to put their best foot forward tonight. The Clippers are streaking right now and the Rockets just lost to the Knicks, so even though that came after a nice winning streak we think LA is in better form right now. We don’t see how Houston will be able to defend the Clippers with this small ball lineup tonight.
03-05-20	Boise State v. UNLV -2.5		67-61	Loss	-105	16 h 5 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #702 UNLV over Boise State (5p.m., Thursday, March 5 CBSSN) The rubber match takes place on the home floor of the Rebels Thursday afternoon in Las Vegas, NV. UNLV beat Boise State two games ago by 10 points in a game that has not remotely close (UNLV led by 27). UNLV has had a good finish under their new coaching staff and they will advance to the semi-finals of this tournament to take on San Diego State. UNLV has not performed well in this tournament in recent years despite being on their home floor and thus it is important for them to win this game to finish the season out on a high note. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
03-04-20	Florida State v. Notre Dame +2		73-71	Push	0	10 h 44 m	Show
6 Unit Play. Take #786 Notre Dame over Florida State (9p.m., Wednesday, March 4 ESPN2) The Seminoles are starting to feel the pressure of winning a regular season ACC Championship and it should last time out at Clemson. Now they are on the road again playing a team that is better than Clemson in a much tougher environment. The Irish got down early last time out against Wake Forest and just could not recover from a poor start. Prior to that they had won 3 straight games and they should be able to win this game straight-up. Playing 3 of 4 games on the road has caught up to the Seminoles and they just are not playing their best basketball of the season down the stretch. Florida State is 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games played on Wednesday. The underdog is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games between Florida State and Notre Dame.
03-04-20	Florida International +9.5 v. Louisiana Tech		73-76	Win	100	8 h 13 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #805 Florida International over Louisiana Tech (7:30p.m., Wednesday, March 4 ) The Bulldogs close out the regular season with two home games. Conference USA is a one bid league and the are pretty much locked into the No. 3 seed for the upcoming conference tournament. This was a 3 point low scoring game in the first meeting and we will grab the points again on Wednesday expecting a similar result. The underdog is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 games between FIU and Louisiana Tech. The Bulldogs are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a favorite.
03-04-20	Thunder -7.5 v. Pistons	Top	114-107	Loss	-116	7 h 48 m	Show
We went against the Thunder last night and the Clippers dominated that game. Now after a five game winning streak the Thunder have dropped two straight in blowout fashion. Those games were to the Bucks and Clippers, however, two of the favorites to win their respective conference this season. But now they take a big step down in class in what is a game they really need. With two straight embarrassing losses they won’t take this one for granted. The Pistons have lost their two stars and this team is just playing out the string and looking towards next season. This one should be a blowout with a motivated OKC team. The Thunder are 5-0 ATS after a double-digit loss at home and 5-0 ATS against an opponent with a home winning percentage less than .400. We think those trends continue tonight.
03-04-20	Minnesota v. Indiana -3.5		67-72	Win	100	8 h 47 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #752 Indiana over Minnesota (7p.m., Wednesday, March 4 BTN) Indiana has a pair of home games to close out the regular season and they are must win games in each. They should be able to complete the first half tonight, as Minnesota is playing their second straight road game and third in the last four games. The Gophers already lost to Indiana by 12 points in the Twin Cities and this will be the same result tonight in Bloomington. Indiana is 16-6 ATS in their last 22 games against teams with a losing record.
03-04-20	LSU v. Arkansas -2.5		90-99	Win	100	8 h 46 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #760 Arkansas over LSU (7p.m., Wednesday, March 4 SECN) Arkansas must win this game in order to have a chance at an at-large bid into the NCAA Tournament. The are playing better once Isaiah Joe came back from injury and they have won their last two home games. LSU has not beaten many good teams of late and I just do not trust them especially when they are playing on the road. LSU is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following a win in their previous game.
03-03-20	Purdue v. Iowa -4.5		77-68	Loss	-107	10 h 51 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #648 Iowa over Purdue (9p.m., Tuesday, March 3 BTN) Purdue is not making the NCAA Tournament unless they win the conference tournament next weekend. They have lost 4 of their last 5 games. Iowa needs to win out if they have hopes of earning a double bye for the upcoming Big 10 Conference Tournament. Purdue is 2-8 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 12 games as an underdog. Iowa is 9-1 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 12 games against teams with a losing road record. The favorite is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings between Purdue and Iowa.
03-03-20	Clippers -3 v. Thunder		109-94	Win	100	11 h 0 m	Show
The Clippers are healthy and are making their push for the playoffs. They have won four straight and this team is really starting to gel. OKC has been playing well, but they played a real stinker last time out in a 40+-point loss at Milwaukee. That has to be concerning for OKC backers. We think this is a really tough spot for them to bounce back and with LA at full strength they are clearly the superior team here.
03-03-20	Maryland v. Rutgers -1		67-78	Win	100	8 h 50 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #620 Rutgers over Maryland (7p.m., Tuesday, March 3 BTN) Both teams need this game but for completely different reasons. Maryland has a chance to win the outright regular season title with a win. Rutgers needs a win to ensure they make the NCAA Tournament for the first time in what seems like forever. Rutgers have played a brutal schedule of late, but Maryland has been shaky as well laying an egg last time out at home against Michigan State. Maryland is 2-6 ATS (1 push) in their last 9 games played on Tuesday. Rutgers is 10-3 ATS (1 push) in their last 14 home games.
03-03-20	Arkansas-Little Rock v. Georgia State -3		70-89	Win	100	8 h 49 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #608 Georgia State over Arkansas Little Rock (7p.m., Tuesday, March 3 ESPN+) Little Rock has already clinched the top seed in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament and thus this game does not mean much to them. This is a one bid league and that means it will all come down to the conference tournament to who makes it to the NCAA Tournament. The Trojans have lost 2 of their last 3 road games. Georgia State is 13-5 ATS (1 push) in their last 19 home games. The favorite is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings.
03-01-20	Minnesota v. Wisconsin -5		69-71	Loss	-112	7 h 3 m	Show
6 Unit Play. Take #842 Wisconsin over Minnesota (6:30p.m., Sunday, March 1 BTN) Wisconsin continues to get little respect from the oddsmakers despite being in position for a double bye and possible a share of the regular season title. Minnesota is coming off numerous home losses in games they were in control of and should have won. The Badgers have a chance to win their final three games and that will allow them to finish atop the standing. The favorite is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games between Minnesota and Wisconsin. The Badgers are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games played on Sunday. The Golden Gophers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a road underdog. 75% of the money is coming in on Wisconsin and this line is just a couple of points low. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
03-01-20	76ers v. Clippers UNDER 219.5	Top	130-136	Loss	-102	4 h 12 m	Show
The Clippers are paying great basketball and are big favorites here. While we are not too excited about laying this big number, we think this will be a blowout and that will bode well for the under. LA is fully healthy right now and they are rounding into playoff form. They have played three straight excellent defensive games, and the Sixers will be without their two main playmakers tonight.
02-29-20	Rockets v. Celtics -1.5	Top	111-110	Loss	-108	8 h 5 m	Show
Both teams are playing well right now but we think Boston is the better and more well rounded team right now. Boston is one of the best bets in the NBA year after year, and that’s true once again this season with one of the best ATS marks in the league. They continue to be underestimated by the oddsmakers and they play great team basketball and strong defense. They have covered in their last five games and we see another cover at home here tonight.
02-29-20	Michigan State v. Maryland -2.5	Top	78-66	Loss	-115	24 h 2 m	Show
10 Unit Play. Take #706 Maryland over Michigan State (8p.m., Saturday, February 29 ESPN) Maryland is the best team in the Big 10 and they are riding high at the moment. They had no business beating Minnesota last time out, but they did and now see a regular season title well within sight. Michigan State has been one of the biggest disappointments this season and they continue to be ranked based on name recognition only. They lost to Maryland two weeks ago and things will be much tougher tonight in College Park. Maryland has the best starting line-up in the league and a win today will clinch at last a share of the Big 10 Championship. The Terrapins have won 10 of their last 11 games. Too much on the line for Maryland to take this game lightly and expect them to win it by 7-9 points.
02-29-20	James Madison v. Hofstra -12.5		81-97	Win	100	4 h 19 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #678 Hofstra -13 over James Madison (4p.m., Saturday, February 29) The Pride still have a chance to clinch the regular season title on Thursday but laid an egg at home against Towson. That will not be the case today, as the Pride get to face the worst team in the CAA at home. We will lay the big number with them. James Madison is 7-19 ATS in their last 26 games. Hofstra is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games as a favorite. Hofstra is 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games played on Saturday. The Pride will complete the season sweep of the Dukes and get some hardware as well.
02-29-20	Notre Dame -2 v. Wake Forest		73-84	Loss	-102	4 h 18 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #682 Notre Dame -2 over Wake Forest (4p.m., Saturday, February 29 ACCNX) We used Florida State last week fading NC State after they beat Duke. We will follow that trend again on Saturday, as Wake Forest is coming off a double overtime victory against Duke last time out. Notre Dame is the better coached and better all-around team. The favorite is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 meetings between Notre Dame and Wake Forest. The Fighting Irish were 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games.
02-29-20	Florida State v. Clemson +3.5		69-70	Win	100	2 h 21 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #634 Clemson +3.5 over Florida State (2p.m., Saturday, February 29 ACCNX) The Seminoles have been living well of late and they cannot continue to get down big in first halves and win games. In their last two games they had to mount a big second half in order to win but that will not be the case if it occurs today against Clemson. The Tigers have some impressive wins at home this season and I believe they will be able to take this game down to the wire as well. The home team is 6-2 ATS (1 push) in the last 9 games between Florida State and Clemson.
02-28-20	Wizards v. Jazz UNDER 232.5	Top	119-129	Loss	-106	8 h 12 m	Show
The under has been a strong trend in this rare series, but over many years it is 15-7 in the last 22 meetings. The Jazz have lost four straight and really need to stop the bleeding. They are big favorites tonight and this is a good game for them to get back on the winning track. We think they really focus on lock-down defense tonight and we think they will get the job done on the defensive end. They have to put in the effort tonight as a loss here would be really bad.
02-27-20	San Diego v. Gonzaga UNDER 149.5		59-94	Loss	-110	10 h 59 m	Show
3 Unit Play. Take #655 Under in San Diego @ Gonzaga (9p.m., Thursday, February 27 ROOT Sports) This game is going to be a blowout and Gonzaga will score points at will. But they same cannot be said for the Toreros, as their goal is just to not get embarrassed. San Diego has gone under the posted total in 23 of their last 33 games (1 push) played on Thursday. Gonzaga has gone under the posted total in 6 of their last 8 games against teams with a losing record.
02-27-20	Towson +7.5 v. Hofstra		76-65	Win	100	8 h 58 m	Show
3 Unit Play. Take #605 Towson over Hofstra (7p.m., Thursday, February 27) The Pride have been on a roll of late winning 8 straight games. They just need 1 victory in their final two games to clinch the regular season CAA standing. I expect this to be a battle tonight and the deficit to be under single digits. Towson has won 3 of their last 4 games. Towson are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games. Hofstra is 15-34 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 51 home games vs teams with a winning road record. The road team is 19-7 ATS (2 pushes) in the last 28 games between Towson and Hofstra.
02-27-20	Wisconsin +6.5 v. Michigan		81-74	Win	100	8 h 57 m	Show
3 Unit Play. Take #614 Wisconsin over Michigan (7p.m., Thursday, February 27 ESPN2) Wisconsin may be due for a blowout but I just do not believe it will happen. Michigan continues to get too much respect from the oddsmakers and I do not believe they are as good as their power ratings warrant. The underdog is 15-5 ATS in the last 20 games between Wisconsin and Michigan. The Badgers are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games played on Thursday.
02-26-20	Celtics v. Jazz -4.5		114-103	Loss	-105	12 h 40 m	Show
2-Unit Play #518 Take Utah over Boston (10 p.m. EST, Wednesday Fab 26) We think the Jazz are in a good spot here to get back on the winning track. They are catching the Celtics on a back-to-back while the Jazz are badly in need of a win. They were embarrassed last time out in a blowout to the Suns, and they have no choice but to put their best foot forward here. We expect them to do just that. We think they will get a comfortable win here in front of the home fans. It should not matter if Walker is in the lineup for Boston or not. --Best of Luck, Doc's Sports
02-26-20	Tennessee v. Arkansas -4.5		69-86	Win	100	10 h 37 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #830 Arkansas over Tennessee (8:30p.m., Wednesday, February 26 SECN) Arkansas is whole again and needs to win game to keep their hopes of an NCAA Tournament bid alive. They have revenge for this game having gotten pounded by Tennessee on 2/11. But that came without Isaiah Joe, who showed no rest returning Saturday to score 21 points after a 3-week layoff. This is the Volunteers second straight road game and they seem to struggle to close out games against good teams. That will be the case again today with Arkansas pulling away to win this game by 7-8 points. Tennessee is 1-7 ATS (1 push) in their last 9 games played on Wednesday. Arkansas is 7-3 ATS in their last 10 home games against teams with a losing road record. The home team is 9-4 ATS in the last 13 matchups between Tennessee and Arkansas.
02-25-20	Celtics -7 v. Blazers		118-106	Win	100	9 h 21 m	Show
Both teams are missing star players here, but the loss of Walker hurts less than the loss of Lillard because the Celtics have a much deeper and more talented team. Boston has been one of the better bets in the NBA the last few years, and that is because of the great team basketball and solid defense they play. Boston has been trending to the over, but we don’t see the Blazers doing anything special on offense tonight and we think this is an inflated total tonight.
02-25-20	Celtics v. Blazers UNDER 223.5		118-106	Loss	-110	9 h 21 m	Show

02-25-20	Nevada v. Wyoming OVER 138		73-68	Win	100	10 h 11 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #642 Over in Nevada @ Wyoming (9p.m., Tuesday, February 25 ATTSN) Nevada is been allowing teams to shoot high percentages against them and expect that to be the case again on Tuesday. A bad shooting Fresno State team shot 40% from the three-point line last Saturday and expect Wyoming to find similar success. Nevada is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games. Wyoming has gone over the posted total in their last 4 games.
02-25-20	Thunder -7 v. Bulls	Top	124-122	Loss	-109	7 h 21 m	Show
The Bulls have a ton of injuries right now and this team wasn’t very good even when more healthy. This team isn’t going anywhere this season and they are playing for pride here, while the Thunder need every win. OKC has been one of the best bets in the NBA on the road, where they have covered in 22 of their last 27 road games. We feel this line is short once again as we see this is a probable double-digit win for the road team. The Bulls got a rare cover last time out but this team is 1-7 ATS after covering their last game. So when they play above expectations they normally follow that up with a stinker.
02-24-20	Suns +8 v. Jazz	Top	131-111	Win	100	9 h 7 m	Show
The Jazz have been very streaky and they are trending in the wrong direction right now. We think this is just too many points for them to be laying right now to a Suns team that has won two of three. We think Phoenix will come in with confidence tonight and we expect a close game.
02-24-20	Louisville v. Florida State -2.5		67-82	Win	100	8 h 23 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #874 Florida State over Louisville (7p.m., Monday, February 24 ESPN) We hit our top play on Saturday with Florida State and will use them again on Monday in what will likely be a playout game. The loser will struggle to win the ACC Regular Season title and we fully expect that to be Louisville tonight. The Seminoles have already beaten the Cardinals in Louisville and Louisville has lost their last two road games. Both have come against teams that will not make the NCAA Tournament this season. Florida State is 4-1 ATS in their last 4 games.
02-23-20	Rutgers v. Wisconsin -5		71-79	Win	100	2 h 34 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #828 Wisconsin over Rutgers (1p.m., Sunday, February 23 BTN) Rutgers is not a lock to reach the NCAA Tournament and they have been leaking of late. They lost their first home game last time out and now themselves in a place where they have never won. Rutgers has lost 3 of their last 5 games. The home team is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 match-ups between Rutgers and Wisconsin. The Badgers are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games played on Sunday.
02-22-20	Fresno State v. Nevada -6.5		76-78	Loss	-115	10 h 22 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #794 Nevada -7 over Fresno State (10p.m., Saturday, February 22 ESPNU) Fresno State has some size to do damage to Nevada but they have lost every conference game they have played against the top teams in the MWC. The Bulldogs are 0-9 against the conference's top-six teams and 6-1 against the rest. Nevada relies on the 3 for their points and Fresno State does not depend the arc very well allowing team to shot over 35% against them. The favorite has covered the spread in 4 of the last 5 meetings between the Bulldogs and the Wolf Pack. Fresno State is 3-12 ATS in their last 16 games against teams with a winning record. Nevada is 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games as a favorite. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
02-22-20	Oregon v. Arizona -4.5		73-72	Loss	-109	9 h 23 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #792 Arizona -4.5 over Oregon (9p.m., Saturday, February 22 ESPN) Arizona does not lose often at home and I just do not believe Oregon is as good as their ranking is. The Wildcats have won 3 straight games all via blowout and the loser of this game will lose their chance to win the regular season PAC-12 Championship. The Ducks have lost 3 of their last 5 games and their success is dependent on Payton Pritchard. Arizona should have won the first meeting in Eugene and they will win this game by close to double digits. Oregon is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games. Arizona is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games.
02-22-20	Suns v. Bulls OVER 221.5		112-104	Loss	-110	8 h 30 m	Show
We think the Bulls are a team to fade down the stretch. The Suns aren’t a very good team but they have nice potential for the future and we think they are the better team in this matchup. They are being punished too much by the oddsmakers for a back-to-back but these teams are rested after the break and the B2B shouldn’t be a big deal. The Bulls played some of the worst defense in the NBA leading into the All-Star Break, and we think the Suns will put up a massive point total tonight. We think this game has a great chance for a blowout, and we could see the Suns scoring 120+ tonight.
02-22-20	Suns -2 v. Bulls	Top	112-104	Win	100	8 h 30 m	Show

02-22-20	Nets -4 v. Hornets		115-86	Win	100	7 h 31 m	Show
Maybe no Kyrie could be a good thing for this team? Sometimes certain players don’t fit in, and Kyrie has had his problems in other locations. Now he is out for the season, and the Nets played pretty good in an OT loss to Philly right out of the break. Now they take a big step down in competition. The Nets have been good at bounce backs lately with a 4-0 ATS mark after a loss. They are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 meetings in Charlotte. We think they are the much better squad here tonight.
02-22-20	Florida v. Kentucky -4.5	Top	59-65	Win	100	23 h 58 m	Show
10 Unit Play. Take #730 Kentucky over Florida (6p.m., Saturday, February 22 ESPN) Florida has underachieved this season and does not have that many impressive wins in conference play. Kentucky is the best team in the SEC, and they will enter this game having won 5 straight games If Kentucky can make shots from behind the arc they could win a national championship this season. They did so in the second half against LSU and now sit atop the standing by 2 full games. The favorite is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 games between Kentucky and Florida. The Gators just do not have the right chemistry this season despite picking up Kerry Blackshear from Virginia Tech. Kentucky pulls away and wins this game by 9-10 points.
02-22-20	Florida State -1 v. NC State		67-61	Win	100	4 h 24 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #681 Florida State -1 over NC State (4p.m., Saturday, February 22 ACCN) TOP NCAA PLAY OF THE DAY Just expect a letdown for NC State coming off their big win against Duke last time out. Florida State might be the best team in the ACC, and they must win this game in order to win the regular season title. NC State is 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games following a win in their previous game.
02-21-20	Pelicans -5 v. Blazers		128-115	Win	100	10 h 2 m	Show
The Blazers are a walking infirmary right now and we don’t see them having any success tonight against the surging Pelicans. New Orleans is really gelling as a team right now and they have been winning games and covering lines. We think we are getting a good line here since the Pels are on the road. But the injury issues for Portland will be too much tonight, and there’s a great chance the road team could win this one by double digits.
02-21-20	Grizzlies +11 v. Lakers		105-117	Loss	-109	10 h 2 m	Show
Just too many points here tonight. After a slowish start the Grizzlies have been one of the better bets in the NBA. This squad plays team basketball, and they found a real leader and start in Ja Morant. The Lakers are going to get a lot of love from the oddsmakers and betting public as they are the biggest public betting team in the NBA. But we had this game handicapped at 8, so we think there is some very nice value in this double digit line.
02-21-20	Spurs v. Jazz -7		113-104	Loss	-104	9 h 32 m	Show
The Jazz have been hot and cold this season, but they entered the All-Star Break hot with four straight wins and we think they carry the momentum over tonight in their first game out of the break. The Spurs finished strong out of the break but before that lost five straight. This is just a down year for the Spurs, and we think this line is short. When playing their best, the Jazz can blow teams like this out by 10+, and coming out of the break we see no reason why they won’t put their best foot forward.
02-21-20	VCU -2 v. St. Louis		62-80	Loss	-109	9 h 28 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #874 Saint Louis over VCU (9p.m., Friday, February 21 ESPN2) The Rams are banged up and have lost three straight games. They played well against Dayton last game, but I do not believe that they will be able to muster that energy tonight on the road. The Billikens have been struggling as well but they are on their way to receiving an NIT bid if they can win games like this at home. VCU is 2-10 ATS (1 push) in their last 13 games played on Friday. Saint Louis is 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games against teams with a winning record. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
02-21-20	Celtics v. Wolves UNDER 226.5		127-117	Loss	-101	8 h 33 m	Show
Boston has been one of the most reliable bets in the NBA the last few years. They are 32-20-2 ATS this season so they are getting it done at the window once again. This Minnesota team is a mess, and we think with the extra rest after the All-Star Break that Boston has an even bigger advantage in this one. Every team wants to get off to a strong start after the break, and we think Boston brings their A Game here against a very vulnerable opponent. We see them locking down defensively tonight in a blowout win.
02-21-20	Celtics -6.5 v. Wolves	Top	127-117	Win	100	8 h 33 m	Show

02-21-20	Pacers -6.5 v. Knicks	Top	106-98	Win	100	7 h 3 m	Show
The second part of the season is here for the Pacers after the All-Star Break and we think they will be a team to watch down the stretch. This team is healthy and dangerous in the east. This Indiana club plays team basketball and solid defense. That is the recipe for success. Teams always want to play well out of the break but New York had their little hot streak before the break, winning four straight, but then they lost their last two and we just see more motivation and a much better team coming from the visitors locker room tonight.
02-20-20	Rockets v. Warriors UNDER 234.5		135-105	Loss	-110	10 h 45 m	Show
The Rockets have been trending to the under with their last four before the break all going under the posted number. We think these teams could start off rusty with the shooting, and there is a good chance the Warriors won’t get too hot for the entire game. Both teams are athletic and should be fresh for some strong defense. The under is 11-5-1 in the last 17 meetings and 4-1 in the last five meetings in the Bay Area. We think there’s a good chance this one goes decently under this posted total.
02-20-20	Stanford v. Washington -1.5		72-64	Loss	-110	11 h 23 m	Show
5 Unit Play. Take #672 Washington over Stanford (10p.m., Thursday, February 20 PAC12N) It ends tonight! Sooner or later Washington is going to win a game and it will be tonight against a Stanford team that is in a tailspin of its own as well. Stanford has lost 4 straight games including back-to-back home games last weekend against the Arizona schools. The home team is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings between Stanford and Washington. The favorite is 6-2 ATS in their last 8 meetings. Not much good cane be said against Washington but tonight I expect things to fall in line. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
02-20-20	Nets v. 76ers UNDER 216		104-112	Push	0	7 h 11 m	Show
We think the under will trend in a lot of these first games after the all-star break. The players are rested and want to start off the second half of the season with a solid effort on the defensive end. The offenses will probably start off rusty and with these very high totals we are seeing in the NBA, even a couple minutes of a gametime cold spell for shooting by one or both teams can bode very well for the under. Five of six for the Nets went under before the break, and we have a feeling the Sixers defense could lock them down again tonight.
02-20-20	Bucks v. Pistons UNDER 226		126-106	Loss	-110	6 h 11 m	Show
The Pistons are one of the worst offensive teams in the league. They have been particularly bad recently. They scored 92 or fewer points in five of their last eight games. In today’s NBA, that’s really bad. Both teams should be rusty to start off this game on offense. Detroit may never get hot. We think the Bucks can put up a big total and this one will still go under. Both teams should have a lot of energy on defense. The under is 5-1 in the Bucks last six road games.
02-19-20	Michigan v. Rutgers -1	Top	60-52	Loss	-115	21 h 38 m	Show
10 Unit Play. Take #784 Rutgers over Michigan (7p.m., Wednesday, February 18 BTN) Rutgers is not a lock to make the NCAA Tournament and they need more wins to ensure they get there. Rutgers is a much better team when playing at home and expect them to win this game by 6-8 points. Michigan has been playing better of late but most of their damage has come at home. Rutgers does not lose at home and they are coming off a 15-point victory against Illinois last time out. Michigan will need to shoot it well to win this game and I believe Rutgers will match them or beat them from the 3-point line.
02-18-20	Purdue v. Wisconsin -4		65-69	Push	0	7 h 29 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #620 Wisconsin over Purdue (7p.m., Tuesday, February 18 ESPN) Purdue is not the same team on the road and their chances of making the NCAA Tournament have crumbled of late. They have lost two straight games by double-digits and I do not see things getting any better tonight in Madison. The Badgers have won two straight games by double-digits and they have a chance for a double bye as their schedule lightens up some down the stretch. The favorite is 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings between Purdue and Wisconsin. Wisconsin is 3-1 ATS (1 push) in their last 5 games. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
02-17-20	Xavier -1.5 v. St. John's		77-74	Win	100	8 h 55 m	Show
5 Unit Play. Take #861 Xavier over St Johns (6:30p.m., Monday, February 17 FS1) The Musketeers need to complete the season sweep of the Red Storm to stay on the NCAA Tournament bubble. They already beat them once this season by 8 points and now St. Johns is without Mustapha Heron. The favorite is 3-1 ATS (1 push) in the last 5 meetings between Xavier and St Johns. Xavier is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games.
02-16-20	Arizona State -5 v. California		80-75	Push	0	7 h 60 m	Show
2 Unit Play. Take #852 Arizona State over California (6p.m., Sunday, February 16 ESPNU) Arizona State has been creeping up the standing of late winning 4 straight games. All 4 of those wins came against teams that are better than Cal. Mark Fox is doing wondering with this team to get it some wins this year in a rebuilding phase. ASU has too much to lose to take this game lightly and the road team is 23-11 ATS in the last 34 meetings between ASU and Cal. The Golden Bears are 6-21 in their last 27 games following an ATS loss in their previous game.
02-15-20	Seton Hall -1 v. Providence		71-74	Loss	-110	9 h 10 m	Show
7 Unit Play. Take #765 Seton Hall over Providence (8p.m., Saturday, February 15 CBSSN) Seton Hall is coming off a surprising home loss to Creighton last time out. They are still the best team in the Big East and whenever you can get them with a short number you have to take notice. The Friars have talent but they have not played like it as times this season. They are coming off an embarrassing loss to St. Johns this week, as the Red Storm where without one of their key players and still beat them my double-digits. A win tonight will about guarantee the Pirates a share of the Big East regular season title and I feel they will come out ready to make a statement tonight in Rhode Island. Seton Hall has not lost a conference road game this season. Seton Hall is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games. Providence is 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games as a home underdog.
02-15-20	West Virginia v. Baylor -5.5	Top	59-70	Win	100	3 h 57 m	Show
7 Unit Play. Take #694 Baylor -5.5 over West Virginia (4p.m., Saturday, February 15 ESPN+) TOP NCAA PLAY OF THE DAY Just not a fan of West Virginia this year. They struggle to score points when playing away from home and just need to muck up the game to be successful. They will likely not be able to play as aggressive away from Morgantown. Baylor just wins game and has the best defense in the country. Their game against Texas was not as close as the final score would indicate. West Virginia is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games. Baylor is 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games. This will be a grind for 40 minutes but in the end expect Baylor to pull away late and win it by double digits
02-15-20	Wake Forest v. Miami-FL -2.5	Top	54-71	Win	100	18 h 15 m	Show
10 Unit Play. Take #636 Miami (FL) over Wake Forest (2p.m., Saturday, February 15 RSN) Miami has played better than what their 4-10 record would indicate. They are coming off their best performance of the season last time out and expect them to take care of business today against a bad Wake Forest teams. The Demon Deacons have done nothing with Danny Manning as their head coach and this will be there third road game in their last 4 games. The home team is 8-1 ATS (2 pushes) in the last 11 meetings between Wake Forest and Miami. The Hurricanes are the better coached team playing at home and expect them to win this game by 7-9 points giving us the cash.
02-14-20	Davidson v. St Bonaventure OVER 129.5		93-64	Win	100	8 h 32 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #866 Over in Davidson @ St Bonaventure (7p.m., Friday, February 14 ESPN2) This total has been bet way down in the morning hours and now we feel the value lies with the over. The Bonnies have scored at least 72 points in 4 straight games and if they hit that mark tonight, we should be in good shape to collect with the over. St Bonaventure has gone over the posted total in 4 of their last 5 games against teams with a winning record. Davidson has gone over the posted total in 5 of their last 7 games against teams with a winning record. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
02-13-20	BYU v. Loyola Marymount OVER 139		77-54	Loss	-105	12 h 45 m	Show
5 Unit Play. Take #690 Over in BYU @ LMU (11p.m., Thursday, February 13 ESPNU) BYU is well on their way to receiving an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament if they can finish out the season strong. The Cougars have gone over the posted total in 8 of their last 10 games. BYU has also gone over the posted total in 9 straight games following an ATS win in their previous game. LMU has gone over the posted total in 6 of their last 7 games following an ATS win in their previous game. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
02-13-20	Washington v. USC -3.5		56-62	Win	103	10 h 48 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #670 USC over Washington (9p.m., Thursday, February 13 ESPN2) This play is mostly going against Washington, as they have fallen apart having lost 6 straight games. They have thrown in the towel on the 2019-2020 season. USC is also shaky but they do have talent and should be able to get back on track after playing a brutal schedule of late. USC also have revenge on their minds losing to Washington by 32 points earlier this season in Seattle. Washington is 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog. USC is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a loss in their previous games.
02-13-20	Thunder v. Pelicans -2		123-118	Loss	-109	8 h 42 m	Show
We will go with recent form in this one as the Thunder have lost two straight, while the Pelicans have won three straight entering tonight’s game. New Orleans has covered in all of their last five games when favored, and we think this spread is too small tonight. With the All-Star Break looming, you have to like the home teams to finish the first half of the season with some extra momentum while the road teams just want to enter the break, especially if they haven’t been playing well coming into this last game before the break.
02-13-20	Clippers v. Celtics -1.5	Top	133-141	Win	100	8 h 37 m	Show
This Clippers team looks like they are ready for the All-Star Break. Maybe no team in the NBA cares less about the regular season than these Clippers. This is the fourth game on their current road trip and they are probably over it and ready for the break. They have not been playing too well lately and were blown out in Minnesota and also lost by 7 at Philly. This team is still figuring things out and Paul George hasn’t been playing up to the level we expect. And Pat Bev is out tonight also. This looks like a good spot for a comfortable Boston win.
02-12-20	Raptors v. Nets UNDER 223.5		91-101	Win	100	7 h 32 m	Show
Toronto has been trending to the over, but the bookies have posted a too high number here for this Wednesday game. Toronto is a Top 5 defensive team, and there’s a great chance that they hold the Nets to a low total here tonight. The Nets have actually been playing some decent defense lately and as a result, four of their last five games have played under the total. We had this game handicapper at 219 so we think there is some good value here as we leaned to the under even at our handicapped number.
02-12-20	Hawks -1.5 v. Cavs	Top	105-127	Loss	-110	6 h 2 m	Show
The Hawks have covered in five of the last seven meetings here in Cleveland. We think this is a great chance for Atlanta to get a rare road win tonight. Cleveland has lost six straight games and things are not good right now with this team. We just don’t see them playing well here and this team looks like it is ready for the all-star break. Atlanta is one of those bad NBA teams that is playing for momentum for next season while the Cavs are a no hope team right now that is trying to figure out what to do. The Hawks are better poised for success here, and we expect them to win this one comfortably.
02-12-20	South Carolina v. Georgia -2.5		75-59	Loss	-105	8 h 55 m	Show
4 Unit Play. Take #786 Georgia over South Carolina (6:30p.m., Wednesday, February 12 SECN) The Bulldogs have been a massive disappointment this season but it is not for a lack of talent. Georgia has blown big leads the last two games and they will likely have a big lead in this game as well. Carolina got blown out on the road last time out and I see them losing this game by double digits as well. Georgia is 11-2 ATS in their last 13 games after allowing 90 points in their previous game. Anthony Edwards is the best player on the floor and he will be the difference tonight as Tom Crean and company get a much needed win at home.
02-11-20	Bulls v. Wizards -3	Top	114-126	Win	100	7 h 37 m	Show
The Bulls weren’t a good team to begin with, but they are super banged up right now and have an injury report as long as your grocery list. Washington is very healthy in comparison. The Wizards have won three of their last five and this team has been playing well recently. They are on a 6-4 ATS run and the oddsmakers are a bit behind on this team right now. They are coming off a loss but are 4-1 ATS in bounce-back situations and they are also 4-1 ATS in their last five against teams with a record below .400, meaning they are getting the job done against lousy teams. Because of the Bulls injury situation we had this game handicapped at 7, so there is nice value there tonight.
02-11-20	Arkansas v. Tennessee -2.5		61-82	Win	100	9 h 31 m	Show
6 Unit Play. Take #620 Tennessee over Arkansas (7p.m., Tuesday, February 11 SECN) Arkansas has been exhausted of late coming off back-to-back overtime losses in their last two games. They are clearly on the bubble when it comes to the NCAA Tournament and they struggle to score points at times in each game especially without Isaiah Joe. Tennessee is not having good year but they have been competitive in most of their recent losses and this is a game they are the better team in. Arkansas is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games. Tennessee is 13-6 ATS in their last 19 games following a double-digit loss at home in their previous game.
