40* NCAA-B TOTAL OF THE WEEK Cincinnati vs. Memphis OVER 119 Most of this play is solely based on the number. Less than 120 means if each team reaches 60 points, we cash. Also, this is the lowest totaled line for a Memphis game this year by 7-8 points. This game is being played at Fed-Ex Forum tonight, so these teams should focus more on offense and try for more spectacular plays. This should be a close game, which could mean the free throw game in the final minutes, which should help the point total as well.

The Clippers are one of the worst road teams in the league, especially when playing the better teams of the league. They have just ONE win on the road against a team with a winning record on the season. They are also just 1-7 ATS on the road against the good teams this season. The Clippers have LeBron James on deck and they could be looking ahead to that contest. Portland is as close to a sure thing at home as their is in the NBA and we'll lay the short number here tonight.

50* NCAA-B SEC GAME OF THE YEAR Alabama +2.5 The Tide have some serious revenge from getting beat last year at home by the Vols. Alabama is much improved and the Vols have declined. Alabama does a ton of work from the foul line and is very good at it. A very important factor for taking underdogs is how well they shoot free throws. Same goes with taking road teams and the Tide is one of the best. Tennessee should come out flat in this game. They haven't played anyone good lately and when they played a team with any talent early in the season, they got beat. Bama is battle tested recently destroying the Aggies and losing a nail biter to the Shockers by just one point, and that was on the road. I expect Alabama to win this game outright and will place some of my wager on the money line when it comes out in the morning.

JaVale McGee is injured so Faried is going to be forced into a lot of minutes. DeMarcus Cousins should have a field day in the post. The Kings come off a very impressive win against OKC last time out and now they are playing their second straight home game. Good spot here for the Kings as they should take care of business tonight against the Nuggets.

Phoenix is at their best for overs on the road and San Antonio is at their best at home. The Spurs are 11-2 to the over their last 13 home games and Phoenix is 6-1 to the over their last 7 road games. Phoenix plays with incredible pace and is one of the fastest teams, according to PACE, in the league. On the other hand, their defense is suspect and is towards the bottom of the league. Each team shouldn't have any problems scoring above the century mark tonight and making this game go over the total.

Both teams shoot a ton of threes and can get out and run. If they are knocking down their three balls, this goes over with ease. What's strange about these two teams is that Atlanta scores a ton of points against the bad teams of the league and Detroit score a ton when playing the good teams. The Hawks are 7-1 to the OVER and Detroit is 10-4 to the OVER.

40* NBA BAILOUT SLAMDUNK Oklahoma City Thunder -7 OKC got blown out last time out against the Golden State Warriors and now they are 1 game below .500 on the season. A good situation in the Pro sports is when a team is one game below .500 they usually give a very solid effort their next game to get back to even on the season and not have a losing record. We get OKC in 2 solid situations here and they are also playing a very bad Sacramento Kings team. The Kings are the worst team ATS in the league of late. This team has just 1 spread win in their last 12 home games, and are just 1-11 and 1-12 following a SU and ATS loss respectively. Sacramento doesn't play team basketball and if Durant and Westbrook can get on a roll, this should be a complete blowout.

50* PRE NBA ALL STAR GAME OF THE YEAR
Milwaukee Bucks -6
I absolutely love this play now since Milwaukee lost last night so I believe they will not look pass Philadelphia here. Milwaukee has been playing very good ball of late and they are starting to hit a groove. They recently were -7 favorites on the road against the New York Knicks and they blew them out. I believe we are getting a ton of value here with this number only at -6. How is this number one point LESS with Philly than New York. Philadelphia always has the ability to get blown out on any given night. What makes this play even better is that the 76ers finally got their first home win of the season. I believe they take a sigh of relief here and come out in this game flat. Milwaukee is 17-5 ATS their last 22 road games and Philadelphia is just 1-5 ATS their last 6 games. The Bucks should tear apart this weak 76ers team and bounce back nicely from their loss last night. side note: I personally played a moneyline parlay with Milwaukee and Oklahoma City for -130 odds.

They are 7-0 vs. the Western Conference, 6-0 on the road and 6-0 on the road vs. teams with winning records. They have knocked off practically every good team in the league so far this season. The Hawks are 10-1 against teams with a winning record and they are 9-1 playing on 1 day rest. The Clippers, on the other hand, are horrendous ATS this season. They don't reel off ATS wins together as they are just 1-5 following a spread win and they are just 1-6 playing a team with a winning record. To sum all this up, Atlanta plays lights out against good teams and Los Angeles lays an egg against the good ones. Los Angeles M.O. recently has been that they only beat up on the weaker opponents. This is just way too many points to be giving this Atlanta team that has a great chance of winning this game outright.

By now you guys should know that I love to follow joey Crawford and he is the referee tonight. He now has cashed 5 straight for us and we'll go for number 6 tonight.

The Pacers have played 9 unders in their last 10 home games. The Heat are not the offensive team as they used to be with LeBron. They have old legs and aren't hitting the 3's their accustomed to. Indiana plays exception defense and this should be a half court defensive battle today.

40* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK Detroit Pistons -110 Ever since the Pistons got rid of Josh Smith, this team has been playing a lot better. This was eye opening for players and they have responded well. This game has a little extra motivation for Detroit's coach, Van Gundy, as he was Orlando's coach while Dwight Howard was there. Dwight ran him out of town, even though he won 50+ games every year he was there. I believe that the Pistons will want to win this one for their coach so he can get his revenge for the way they treated him. Orlando had a big win last night against Miami and now they are playing a back to back. Expect Orlando to be a bit sluggish in this game while the Pistons come out hot to win this game for Stan.

If this team just plays team basketball and Rudy Gay doesn't ball hog for an entire quarter, Sacramento blows them out.

50* NBA DIVISIONAL TOTAL OF THE YEAR Chicago Bulls vs. Indiana Pacers UNDER 195 This is the highest lined total between these two teams in a VERY long time. The last 9 meetings have all been lined low with the highest being 182 and the total being lined in the 170's, 6 of those 9 times. That's a 20 point differential and that's way too much of an over adjustment through just one season. Even though these teams have scored a ton recently, these are still defensive minded teams. Chicago gave up 100 points the last time out. When they do that they really step up their defense the following game. Chicago is the 2nd best defense on the road, giving up just 95.2 points a game and Indiana is the second best defense OVERALL giving up just 96.5 points a game. The Pacers have really been struggling to score at home this season only getting 92.5 points a game which is 2nd to last in the entire league. Chicago has been on a roll of late and I see them dictating the pace in this one as they win and cover a defensive struggle tonight.

The Thunder just upset the Spurs yesterday on Christmas day and now have to play on back to back days and this is also their 6th game in 9 days. I don't think OKC prepared one bit for the Hornets as they probably went straight to being "family men" for Christmas before and after the ball game yesterday. The Hornets are well rested and I expect them to be very focused and ready to play one of the top teams in the league. This is a lot of points to be laying for the Thunder especially knowing that almost all the key trends favor the Hornets. Charlotte has covered 4 straight road games and 5 straight off a straight up win.

50* NBA TOTAL OF THE MONTH Washington Wizards vs. New York Knicks UNDER 192 First things first, this game is being played at noon on CHRISTMAS morning. For one, these guys are going to be tired and two, these guys want this game to be over so they can spend time with their families. Typically games played early are lower scoring games and add the fact in that's its Xmas makes it even better. Now for the statistics. New York has gone UNDER the total in 8 of their last 9 home games. They are 27th in the league in scoring and bad news for them they are playing the 4th best defense in the league. The Wizards are also 8-1 their last 9 to the under in their current situation, which is playing on 1 day of rest. Washington does have playmakers but they still are only 17th in the league in scoring. I expect a lot of half court offense in this game. If the Knicks play a lot of ME ball with no team play and throw up bad shots (which they are VERY prone to doing), this game should win with ease.

There's a team in the Eastern Conference like that too, and it's the Atlanta Hawks. Both these teams have been playing lights out recently. Dallas scores a TON of points night in and night out and leads the league in a TON of offensive categories. The OVER is 7-1 in their last 8 games playing on 1 day of rest. Both the Hawks and Mavs are 5-0 to the OVER playing a team with a winning record and 5-1 their last 6 meetings overall. Expect and offensive showcase in this one.

The Spurs are just 1-7 ATS against the Mavericks. If this line came out at 7 or less this would have been a Game of The Year for me. Nevertheless, we'll still take Dallas big here as my top NBA guy absolutely loves this play and we agree with it.

This team also hasn't played well against the Western Conference going just 4-13 their last 17 contest. The Rockets have been a very good team bouncing back this year, going 5-0 after an ATS loss and 6-1 after a straight up loss. Look for Houston to cover this number tonight.

The under has cashed 4 out of the last 5 road games for them. Look at the last time these two teams played, the final score was 71-69! That's only 140 points!

Surprisingly, both teams rank in the Top 10 in points allowed.
