The Matadors lost a emotional roll coaster at home last Saturday. After leading by as many as 18 points in the second half, the Matadors were unable to hold off Portland down after the stretch as the Pilots came out with a hard fought  80-77 victory at The Matadome. Now in a emotional letdown spot Im betting Tennessee State takes advantage of this hosts low energy levels  and get us a victory and a winning ticket. 

TSU is 1-0 in the all-time series versus CSUN, beating the Matadors in overtime 75-72 at a tournament in Las Vegas, Nov. 2006.

Tonight we have a tilt at Madison Square Garden, that has mismatch written all over it and the lines-makers have followed suit by making the Portland Trail Blazers 8 point road chalk,   vs their hosts the  New York Knicks this Tuesday. However from a contrarian perspective, Im betting taking points with the home dog is prudent bankroll expanding choice vs a Portland team on tired legs as they play their 4th road game in less than a week. I know its not easy backing a rebuilding /struggling team like the Knicks that continue to give younger players minutes, but from a advantage players viewpoint, this line is slightly bloated and offers value according to my power rankings numbers.

NBA Underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points (NEW YORK) - in non-conference games, off 3 or more consecutive road losses are 30-8 ATS L/5 seasons for a 79% conversion rate for bettors.

Now they will go against a very hungry and rested Miami team , desperate to get a win, after getting hammered by the LA Lakers on Sunday night  ( 113-97) for their fourth straight home loss. The media is attacking the team for their lack of grit, and believe me say pros do not like to be embarrassed and will be hell bent on getting some redemption tonight.

Orlando enters this game with a hot hand from the field converting at more than 50% with their FGs in their L/3 games, but in the past this has been a signal for downturn in offensive efficiency and production as is evident by the following trend: ORLANDO is 13-3 UNDER in home games after 3 straight games where they made 50% of their shots with a combined average of 193 ppg scored. Meanwhile, Toronto enters this game off a fine defensive performance last time out, allowing the Bulls just 83 points, as they paid alot of attention to their stopping abilities  in transition .  That stronger defensive performance stemmed from criticism they received after suffering a previous loss to the Celtics, that saw some in the media call them soft defensively  and portray them as reverting back to their old ways under former HC Casey. The truth is the Raptors are a solid defensive team  ranking 6th in the league in efficiency, and With that said, Im expecting more of the same stopping action from the Raptors in the spot vs a Magic team ranked 21st in offense in the league behind a 21 st ranked pace..  

TORONTO is 17-4 UNDER  in road games vs. poor rebounding teams - outrebounded by opponents by 3+ per game over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of 202.1 ppg going on the board. ORLANDO is 24-12 UNDER  versus good passing teams, averaging 23  or more assists/game over the last 2 seasons with a combined average of 211.7 ppg getting scored.

Arizona 3-0 is undergoing a massive roster overhaul and is unranked in the AP preseason poll for the first time since 2010-11, but underestimating their talent levels is not something I care to do, as this class is still chalk loaded full of top tier players.UA  admittedly does have a  lack of depth up front, but  has a great deal of versatility and  are quicker defensively via a smaller sized group. Iowa State also 3-0 should also be better this season , but are currently short handed  playing without four potential rotation players, including preseason all-Big 12 guard Lindell Wigginton,  .

The Hawks are struggling  (3-13)  as they enter this game on a  seven-game losing streak on Monday when they start a four-game home stand against the Los Angeles Clippers (10-5) at State Farm Arena. . Thanks to their ineptness and inability to garner wins  of late, we are getting an exaggerated line to bet into with the home dog Hawks. I know the Clippers are playing well and we have a matchup of  teams playing at the proverbial opposite end of the performance spectrum, but desperation and being back on their own home court  after a 4 game road trip against strong teams ( Indiana, Golden State, Denver, Lakers) makes the Hawks battle tested and  a viable wagering option as they play in desperation mode.

MYRTLE BEACH INVITATIONAL - Final Rnd - HTC Center - Conway, SC

The Demon Deacons needed a late 10-0 run to slip past Fullerton 66-59 last time out, but Im betting they wont be so lucky here vsValparaiso. Im betting it will be Vals D, that is the difference maker here. In their last game they suffocated Monmouth  allowing them 54 points, and holding them to 39.6 percent shooting from the field and 4-of-18 shooting from 3-point range .

VALPARAISO is 7-0 ATS  versus poor defensive teams - shooting pct defense of >=45% over the last 2 seasons.

The Mavericks are playing top tier basketball at the moment as is evident by  on their  three-game winning streak  and overall  have won four of five trips to the hardwood. Thanks in part to a strong effort on  defense. Against  Utah  the Mavs held the Jazz to 31.3 percent field goal shooting after keeping Chicago and Oklahoma City under 40 percent in the previous two tilts. Tonight against a banged up Golden State team that looks out of sync of late and  playing without Steph Curry, I feel the Mavs have an advantage here as underdogs . on their own home floor. 

DALLAS is 35-18 ATS  when playing against a team with a winning record over the last 2 seasons. DALLAS is 28-15 ATS as an underdog of 3.5 to 9.5 points over the last 2 seasons. DALLAS is 18-8 ATS  when playing only their 2nd game in 5 days over the last 2 seasons.

My own projections estimate this combined score to eclipse the 160 point plateau. 

Play OVER 

The well rested Charlotte Hornets will be very ready to take down a  Philadelphia 76ers  off a gruelling game against the Utah Jazz last night. The Sixers have played well at home this season , but are just 2-7 on the road, and are fade material in this spot vs a side that was embarrassed by Cleveland last time out . But now on 3 days rest Charlotte will be out looking for redemption and also for revenge for a 133-132 OT  loss last week on the road to the Sixers. That game  showed me that the Hornets matchup well against their opponents as did a 105-103 loss in their first meeting here in Charlotte. 

 CHARLOTTE is 13-0 ATS  versus bad pressure defensive teams - forcing 12 or less turnovers/game over the last 3 seasons.

Drakes D, was exposed to be very weak last time out by the Colorado Buffs as they allowed 101 points in a loss. Today I expect Texas State a  team that is 2-0 on the season and off scoring 97 points last time out  to also do some damage.  Drake  will Im betting reciprocate with some offensive fire works of their own , in the one facet of their game that looks to be decent and that is their offence.  DRAKE is 6-0 OVER after allowing 90 points or more over the last 3 season with the average combined score clicking in at 160 ppg.DRAKE is 6-0 OVER as a home favorite of 3 points or less or pick over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of with a combined average of 150.3 ppg going on the board.TEXAS ST is 16-4 OVER  in road games off a home win with a combined average of 142.4 ppg scored.

Neutral court teams against the total (MICHIGAN) - good team from last season - outscored opponents by 4 or more points/game, after leading in their previous game by 20 or more points at the half are 69-30 UNDER L/5 seasons for a 70% conversion rate for bettors on the blind.

The Little Rock Trojans are coached by former NBA veteran Darrell Walker. Little Rock, like ranked  Nevada, are built  to push the ball in an up-tempo pace. The Trojans are averaging 92 points in their two wins and are no pushovers . Im betting on this tilt eclipsing the Total.

Play OVER 

New Orleans at one point  in the early part of the season lost 6 straight games, and then won three straight. Two of those wins were vs struggling  Phoenix and Chicago,  so Im not going to give them a great deal of accolades. The final  win came against a Raptors team that looked exhausted and did not look themselves. Than last time out the Pelicans lost again, and did not look cohesive vs the Minnesota Wolves on the road. I can't put my finger on it but HC Gentry lead squad just does not seem to make all the moving parts   work in coordination, with Defence, being their key problem point as they rank 27th in the league allowing an average of 115.8 ppg. I know tonights opponent the New York Knicks will not inspire bettors, but their desperate for a win and or  to even stay competitive after 3 straight DD losses, and will be hell bent on not being embarrassed again. The Pelicans in their current form just do not seem like 10 points plus chalk, not even against a struggling Knicks team. With that said, Ill take the points with the lesser of two evils.

Pelicans are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 1 days rest.Pelicans are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss.Pelicans are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game. Knicks are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings in New Orleans. NEW ORLEANS is 2-12 ATS  in home games after having won 3 of their last 4 games over the last 2 season.

Two teams vying for supremacy on the Eastern Conference go head to head tonight as the Toronto Raptors visit the Boston Celtics tonight.Toronto started their campaign 12-1 but have suffered back to back losses at home to the Pelicans and Pistons and are just 3-2 on the road . Truth is the Raptors did not pace themselves out of the gate, and could easily be in pause mode, as they recuperate from exerting to much energy. Meanwhile, Boston has not always looked consistent in the early going this season, but are still a fine team, especially in the defensive end of the court where they rank 2nd in the league allowing just 101.9 ppg. Tonight Im betting their D, and home court advantage will be the difference maker in what Im also betting will be a Celtics win and cover. 

Celtics are 14-2 ATS in their last 16 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.Raptors are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600.

NBA teams where the line is +3 to -3 (TORONTO) - after 2 or more consecutive losses, a top-level team (75% or better) playing a team with a winning record are 4-22 ATS  L/22 seasons for a go against 85% conversion rate for bettors.

Play on the Boston Celtics 

The Boston Celtics and the Toronto Raptors are front runners for a Eastern Conference championship, and when these two hard nosed competitors meet this evening, Im expecting a very physical affair  that will base alot of action on each team focusing on  transitional defence. The Raptors rank 9th in defensive efficiency while the Celtics rank 1st in Defensive efficiency.  Im betting on  a post season type affair that will not be very free flowing and a end result of a combined score that remains on the low side of the Total. None of the L/5 meetings in this series have eclipsed the total.

TORONTO is 16-5 UNDER in road games after having lost 2 of their last 3 games over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of 200.9 ppg scored.  

NBA Road teams where the total is 210 to 219.5 (TORONTO) - good team - outscoring their opponents by 3+ points/game, after 4 straight games where both teams scored 100 points or more are 4-0 UNDER this season and  36-14 UNDER  L/22 seasons for  a 78% conversion rate for bettors.

The Philadelphia 76ers just do not look cohesive of late, and now with big ego Jimmy Butler in the lineup after a trade with Minnesota might still have problems going forward. Yes, I know how talented Butler is, (all you have to do is ask him) but there are reasons why he didn't want to be in Minnesota and its not because of the cold weather .In my humble opinion Butler at this point in his career is not a team player, and Im betting at least for the foreseeable future will be a negative influence on Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid and how well this team plays as a group especially in key situations. Time will tell if Im wrong, but for tonight Im betting a Jazz team off an embarrassing effort last time out vs Dallas, shooting just  31.3 percent from the field and 17 percent from 3-point range, will be primed for a bounce back redemption filled effort vs a  over rated  76ers team .

***It must be noted that Utah owns a +0.11 SRS while, Philadelphai has -0.58 SRS. ( Simple Rating System; a rating that takes into account average point differential and strength of schedule. The rating is denominated in points above/below average, where zero is average)

  BAHAMAS SHOWCASE - Round 1 - Kendal Isaacs Gym - Grand Bahama Island

This steamed up to 155 after the opening and is now inflated enough for me to recommend we  make a under wager here. Not sure where all the initial action came from but it was bolstered by public money and very little if any sharp money. Perceptions lead to irrational exuberance, as both these teams have come gang busters with offensive explosions in their games, but both actually key their successes and failures on playing good D, and thats what Im expecting here today.

GA SOUTHERN is 7-0 UNDER  in road games after scoring 80 points or more 2 straight games over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of 135.9 ppg scored.FLA ATLANTIC is 6-0 UNDER  off an upset win as an underdog over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of 136.2 ppg scored.

My own projections based on system vs systems analysis, suggests this total should be closer to 131. Thus giving us value on this line to the under. UC Irvine is a defence first team that has allowed 64.7 ppg so this season in 3 tilts. Meanwhile, Santa Clara scored 64 points in their lone game, vs Grand Prairie and should struggle again vs this D. Im betting on a methodical approach here from Santa Clara, in an effort to stay competitive.  This will result in a low scoring affair.

UC-IRVINE is 13-3 UNDER (+9.7 Units) in road games when playing against a team with a losing record over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of 126.8 ppg scored. SANTA CLARA in their L/8 home game where the total is 130 to 139.5 over the last 2 seasons have seen a combined average score of 131.4 ppg scored.

My projections estimate that BYU should score in the upper 70s while Oral Roberts should put in the low sixties on the board. Projected 76-to 79 points for BYU 61-64 for Oral Roberts. We have value here on this number as the combined score should project at or above 148.

  ORAL ROBERTS is 11-2 OVER  after a game where they covered the spread over the last 2 seasons with a combined average of 153.5 ppg scored.ORAL ROBERTS is 14-4 OVER  versus good defensive teams - shooting pct defense of 42% or less over the last 3 seasons.BYU L/6 after game - where they allowed a shooting pct. of 33% or less over the last 3 seasons have seen the followup see a combined score of 153.2 ppg scored.

The Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets will bang heads tonight in what promises to be a physical affair. The Warriors will be without the often injured Step Curry but are expected to  have Draymond Green back in the lineup  but may not play a great deal becasue of a toe issue, which should slow their offensive production and see them more concentrated on sound defensive play. The Warriors as per news reports and obvious on court confrontations among themselves , are showing us what its like when this many big egos are put into the same dressing room. But when the game starts their still a team to contend with and Im betting come out here and play hard as a team. Meanwhile, the Rockets thanks to keeping pretty boy Carmelo Anthony on the sidelines , are a more rugged team , behind a under rated defense continues to improve as is evident by a 6th overall ppg defesnive ranking and a methodical calculated pace that is 29th in the league. 

NBA teams where the total is greater than or equal to 220 (GOLDEN STATE) - average defensive team (43.5-45.5%) against a poor defensive team (45.5-47.5%), after 2 straight games making 9 or more 3 point shots are 73-31 UNDER  L/5 seasons for a 71% conversion rate for bettors.

Portland has gone under the total in 7 of their L/8 games thanks to playing a top tier brand of defence, that has seen them hold 4 different opponents to 93 points or less. The Blazers own the leagues 5th best D ,both in points allowed  106.2 and efficiency 105.9 and will primed to grind the free wheeling Lakers down in this spot and not allow them flow. This Im betting takes a more than enough points off this totals number to seen this score stay on the low side of the digits. Note: Lakers games have had some bloated Totals attached to them which has resulted in 7 of their L/8 games and and 5 in row failing to eclipse the total . The L/7 meetings here in LA between these two teams have stayed under the total.

Milwaukee has played some great ball this season , but lately have alternated wins and losses during their L/6 games, and are of a win last time out. They are getting alot of accolades, but this season is still early and my own rankings and stats analysis show some regression. Meanwhile, Memphis enters this game a little banged up , but its mostly depth players and as long as Conley remains healthy and on the court the other Grizzlies as a whole can feed of his energy. From a matchup perspective Memphis is not an easy team to play against, as they sport the leagues best defence behind the leagues slowest pace and Im betting they can cause problems for a team like the Bucks that needs to run a free flowing system to play at an optimal level. With that said, Im betting we have value taking points here with the visitors.

Grizzlies are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.Bucks are 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 games following a ATS win.

MILWAUKEE is 18-45 ATS L/63 as a favorite of 10 or more points. HC Budenholzer is 3-13 ATS  in home games after 3 consecutive non-conference games in all games he has coached.

UL Monroe is really out classed here by Michigan State , and despite of having some decent cogs in the backcourt, just ant hang with this type of team and will struggle to put points up on the board. With that said, I expect them to try to slow this game down to crawl in order to compete, as they did in their game against the  Texas Longhorns losing by 65-55 count. It must be noted that MSU HC Izzo is troubled that his team is averaging 17 turnovers, leading to 18.5 points per game off them. The first two opponents have shot 45.0 percent overall and 42.9 percent on 3-point tries and Im betting he has his team trying to make sure their defensive issues are worked on vs a lower tier team.LA-MONROE is 18-8 UNDER   as a road underdog or pick over the last 3 seasons. MICHIGAN ST is 11-3 UNDER when playing only their 2nd game in a week over the last 2 seasons.

Golden State played last night in LA vs the Clippers . That  game went into to OT, as they lost by a 121-116 count. Now on tired legs as they prepare to play on back to back nights and with the added inconvenience of being without the often injured Curry in the lineup the Warriors will not be as ferocious as usual, and could easily be over looking this lower level opponent. When your a team like the Warriors that has had so much successes in this league of late, its easy to become a little bit to comfortable . Meanwhile, Im betting on rising star Trae Young to come out flying and inspired tonight in an attempt to upend the champs. Im really expecting two different energy levels here in this spot and getting  points to eventually be golden. 

NBA Home favorites (GOLDEN STATE) - good 3PT shooting team (36.5% or better ) against a poor 3PT defense (36.5% or better ), average rebounding team (+/-3 reb/game) against a horrible rebounding team (5.5 or less  reb/game) are 16-52 ATS L/22 seasons for a go against  77% conversion rate for bettors on the blind.

Meanwhile, Houston showed some life last time out, posting a impressive 115-103 victory over a very deep  Indiana team.  Im betting on the Nuggets issues to continue here tonight and for the Rockets to build off of their last effort.

My own projections estimate we have value on this total right to the 147.5 range. Coastal Carolina has averaged 88 ppg in offence in their first two games, while Tulane looked weak on defence last time out, in their only game allowing 80 points. Im betting on More of the same action here , as Coastal lights up the board vs a unorganized defensive group, and Tulanes response  will be to respond or be blown off the court, which will in turn help this game eclipse the Total.

Macura,  are gone, but this is considered one of the best recruiting classes ever put on the floor by Xavier, so the Musketeers aren't exactly short on talent and have to be respected here in their own building, Yes even against a Big 10 power house like Wisconsin.

Musketeers are 14-2 ATS in their last 16 vs. Big Ten.Badgers are 3-8-1 ATS in their last 12 non-conference games.

The Clippers' own a  defensive-minded backcourt buoyed by  Patrick Beverley and Avery Bradley. This duo and other parts of this team were put together, in part, to  deal with explosive backcourts like the one from the they will play tonight. However, that talented  backcourt of the Warriors has some injuries, and could possibly be without Curry tonight . Tonight Im betting , that the Clippers HC Head coach Doc Rivers  will use two full rotations of players, to be fresh enough to be physical and control the Warriors speed. This should mute some flow from this game, and thus scratch a few points off the expected combined score, in a game Im betting that will result in a under wager cashing for us in this spot.

Kansas States HC Webers system and calling card has always been based on playing a solid brand of defensive ball. But today against a lower tier non conference team ( Denver), I expect the Wildcats to be a little more free wheeling, and for this total to be eclipsed.

These are two teams and coaches  that base their successes and failures on playing top tier defence. 

The Utes have three 7-footers on their roster (Novak Topalovic, Jayce Johnson and Brandon Morley). They rank 19th in the nation in average height (78.4 inches). They use their height well within this system of tough inside play and good rebounding. Minnesota's  physcial Big 10 group will reciprocate with some strong physical action of their own in what Im betting will be a low scoring affair. 

UTAH is 18-9 UNDER when playing against a team with a winning record over the last 2 seasons with a combined average of 141.4 ppg scored. Krystkowiak is 35-22 UNDER  when the total is 140 to 149.5 as the coach of UTAH with a combined average of 142.8 ppg scored.

With the negative influence of Jimmy Butler saga gone now after he was traded to the 76ers on the weekend, the Minnesota  Wolves should feel like they now have a second life, and Im betting will be energized and  thrive here tonight vs the Brooklyn Nets. Yes, the Nets  are up-trending, but are on  tired legs as  they play their 3rd game in 4 nights and off a  extremely exhausting and demanding game vs the Warriors last time out. . The Nets are now   in the unenviable position of playing against a pumped up  team that needs desperately to turn their season around after a ugly 0-5 road trip.

Im betting the Arkansas Razorbacks  are in a emotional  letdown situation after a OT loss to Texas in their first game of the season.  Despite of this being their home opener it will be hard for the Hogs to have the energy levels needed to cover this fairly big number vs the University of California-Davis Aggies. Im not saying the the Razorbacks 44 home opener winning streak is in jeopardy , but rather that the line is inflated to the point where  there is value taking points with the road dog.

The Raptors can run and gun behind an explosive offense , but their defence is under rated and currently ranked 8th in DEF Rating efficiency (106.7 ppg)  behind the 10th ranked pace. Meanwhile, the Pelicans, in the early part of this season were seen as a all out one attacking team, that trys to outscore their opponents on the run. But their last two wins have been predicated by playing top tier brand of defence, that kept those opponents at 99 points or less. Im betting the success of those above mentioned outings and victories will see Gentrys troops alot more focused on playing top tier defence in a unfriendly road environment against a dangerous opponent. Look for an expect a more muted total combined score than the linesmakers number might suggest.

NBA teams where the total is greater than or equal to 220 (NEW ORLEANS) - off a home win by 10 points or more against opponent off an home win scoring 110 or more points are 37-8 UNDER L/5 seasons for a 82% conversion rate for bettors with a 216combined average score of 216 ppg going on the board.

The  Boston Celtics successes  in recent years has been their ability to play top tier  defence, but recently especially on this current road trip they look to be struggling .As a result  the Celtics have lost 3 of their L/4 games and have failed to cover 4 straight games. Meanwhile, Portland their hosts tonight are playing at the proverbial opposite end of the performance spectrum, and have won 3 straight and 6 of their L/7 behind some solid two way basketball that has result in allowing 3 of their L/7opponents to score 93 points or less. With that said, Im recommending we lay the short lumber here with the Blazers.

The Trojans showed how explosive they can be when they took out Robert Morris last time out in a powerful well balanced  83-62 win. The Trojans shot 53.2 from the field and allowed their opposition to convert on a lowly 34.3 % of their their shots. Vandy obviously offers up more talent, but travelling from west to east is never any easy proposition for any team , and it will be a factor in what Im betting will be a road loss for the Commodores.

Milwaukee comes at their opponents with a run and gun take no prisoners attitude, and essentially force any all opponents to partake with some offensive fireworks of their own this  or be blown off the court. The Bucks rank 4th in pace and 2nd in offence (121 .7 ppg) in the league a even though the Nuggets operate at a slower pace, Im betting they will have to up their speed or like I said get crushed by a high flying group. The Nuggets are on a couple days rest so they will be ready . One last thing, I know the thin air of Denver, can take its toll on visiting squads, but the Bucks are one of the leagues best conditioned teams and should have no problems with energy despite of playing last night.

 When you first look at this matchup would might assume that the Magic are the superior side, and deserve to be slight favourites here on the road, because of there better play of late as compared to their struggling counterparts. But according to my power rankings charts, and the Orlandos history of ATS futility I feel we have value on a picket line with the ver hungry home team. I know the Kncisk lost last night to Toronto, but I liked their offensive flow in a 128 -112 loss and feel like it could carry into this game. Note The Magic are 11-23 ATS  when playing against a team with a losing record over the last 2 seasons. Orlando took out the reeling Wizards last time out at home in Central Florida , but are just 3-13 ATS  off an upset win as a home underdog over the last 3 seasons.

The Indiana Pacers currently rank very high on my power ranking charts, while Houston is sinking like a rock, and in their current form look very much like fade material. The Rockets are talented but their seems to be an issue with flow and chemistry right now. Add to that their on tired legs in this spot, after finishing off an extended 5 game road trip that resulted in them losing their last two tilts including one last night in San Antonio . This is actually the Rockets 2nd back to back game scenario in the L/9 days, so Im betting their going to be exhausted. Meanwhile, the Pacers  despite of losing 2 of their L/3 games are a deep team that works at an accelerated pace, and Im betting the Rockets wont be able to handle their speed in their current form.I

The Hornets have consistently proven their not an easy out , as was the case in their last trip to the hardwood vs the Philadelphia 76ers on the road as they lost a heart breaking 133-132 OT decision. Now with rest they come back out looking to rebound vs a inconsistent Detroit team, that just recently ended a 5 game losing streak with a pair of wins vs lower tier teams  Orlando and Atlanta. Tonight against this run and gun and high energy Charlotte group Im betting this Motown crew is at a disadvantage.

This is a Kings team that will be playing the second night of a home back-to-back games, and Im expecting them to be more tempered in their approach tonight on tired legs. The Kings last 4 home games have stayed under the Total, and it must be noted that SACRAMENTO is 16-4 UNDER versus explosive offensive teams like the Lakers - scoring 110+ points/game over the last 2 seasons with a combined average of 208.8 ppg on the scoreboard. I know the Lakers on a couple days rest should be fresh, and ready to run but with addition of veteran Tyson Chandler into the Lakers lineup I expect the way the Lakers play will be more balanced with a greater respect and attention placed on playing good defence. The Lakers early season defensive inefficiencies and their explosive offensive weapons have seen recent games see high totals attached to their tilts, and as a result these over compensations have seen 4 straight games stay under the total, and tonight Im betting this Total is also to high. 

SACRAMENTO is 14-4 UNDER  after allowing 105 points or more 4 straight games over the last 3 seasons and overall is 24-9 UNDER after allowing 105 points or more 3 straight games over the last 3 season with the combined average score of the home games clicking in at 205.8 ppg. SACRAMENTO in their L/8 home games after allowing 110 points or more 3 straight games have seen a combined average score of 199.2 ppg scored.

Houston despite of their talent level are not playing up to expectations, but from a systems  matchup perspective have an edge here even though they are playing in enemy territory but still not far from home. The Rockets were hammered in their last trip to the hardwood, snapping a 3 game winning streak , losing to the Thunder 98-80. . That loss came in their 4th straight road game, and the team as a whole looked pooched. Now  with some rest  and back in Texas the Rockets will  be out looking for redemption, for that last loss  which gives us a motivated team to back. HOUSTON is 9-0 ATS L/9  in road games after a blowout loss by 15 points or more over the last 3 seasons.

Note: I didn't like the way the Spurs looked last time out in a 95-88 loss to Miami. Coach Popovich essentially insulted his group calling them soft. Im not sure that will ignite them if thats truly what he thinks they are. I personally feel that Pops might have something here, as the Spurs don't seem to like to work inside. The Spurs  shot  a ugly 33% in that loss to the Heat, but made 13 of 32 from beyond the arc preferring to do their work from the outside. In what the lines makers think will be a closely contested affair, Ill take what I for at least now perceive to be tougher clutch team ( Rockets)

HOUSTON is 18-8 ATS L/26  as a road favorite of 6 points or less over the last 2 seasons.

The Rockets took three of the four meetings from the Spurs last season.

 Road teams where the line is +3 to -3 (HOUSTON) - with a winning percentage of between 40-49% on the season, in November games are 75-35 ATS L/22 seasons for a 68% conversion rate for bettors on the blind.

The Sixers played an intense game against Charlotte last night, winning 133-132 in OT and will now be playing their 5th game since Nov 3.  Needless to say the Sixers should be on tired legs and in not way or shape ready to run here tonight and will have to rely to an extent on  their defence to be competitive which is ranked 10th in the league in efficiency   Meanwhile, the Grizzlies are back to being a team that was feared prior to last season, behind a  top tier D , as is evident by having held 5 diff opponents under 97 points and rank No.1 in the league in points allowed   (100.6 ) and 30th in pace . Their  29th  ranked offense tells a story of a methodical side, that bases it successes and failures on defence and tonight Im betting nothing changes.

This is Belmonts first game of the season, and Illinois State did not look all that impressive in their first game taking a 74-66 tilt vs Florida Gulf State. My own projections and early season power ratings suggest that Belmont should be a 7 point fav here thus we have value on a short chalk line.

Yes, their are new faces in the lineup but they have all been recruited to play Rick Byrds system, and Im betting they will do just fine. 

Belmont has won 285 games since 2007 - the most among all NCAA Division I program from the state of Tennessee - including Tennessee, Vanderbilt and Memphis.

Kent according to my power rankings is the superior team here today  vs Cleveland State and my projections make them a 7 point favorite, thus giving us value on this cheaper than expected line.

The incoming class is highlighted by two freshmen in Anthony Roberts and DeAndre Gholston. Roberts is a Highly talented freshman that scored 22.0 ppg, 6.0 rpg at Detroit Henry Ford HS, while Gholston is a wing player that averaged 22.0 ppg and 6.0 rpg at 21st Century Charter.
