40* NBA TNT GAME OF THE WEEK Miami Heat -2 Not all trends mean the same or are relevant, but there are a few key trends that I really focus on in the NBA. This game features almost all of them. These include how teams perform after big wins/losses, scheduling spots, being tired, home/road splits, and offensive performances. Miami is coming off a double digit loss and they bounce back well. They are 6-1 ATS in this spot. They are also 12-4 ATS at home. Chicago is now in the AWFUL back to back, 3 in 4, and 5 games in 7 nights set. They are 5-11 ATS on the 2nd of a back to back and have failed to cover the spread in 4 straight games after scoring 100 points. This shows that this team doesn't put solid back to back offensive games together and now this makes it even worse since they are tired. The big story line here is Dwayne Wade. Most will view this game as Wade laying out some punishment to his former team. I expect the Heat to prove that they don't need Wade and they will come out fired up. Miami is also well rested with this just being their 2nd game in 5 nights. |

20* Phoenix Suns +3.5 Tough spot here for Portland playing on a back to back, following a shootout against the mighty Warriors. The Blazers have failed to cover the spread in 10 of their last 12 games after scoring 100 points. The Suns are starved for a win but have played well (2-2 ATS.) They have also done great following a spread and blowout loss. They have covered the spread in 8 straight following a spread loss and are 38-16-2 after a double digit defeat. |

20* Dallas Mavericks +4.5 Looking for a letdown here from the Jazz. Not many teams can say they got a W from the Spurs at home. Although it is their home in Utah, they have to play a back to back in the altitude. Dallas has always been a great team, against the number, on the road against winning competition. They have also gotten the money in 4 of the last 5 meetings in Utah. |

50* NBA BLOWOUT MAX BET Indiana Pacers -6.5 Just from a Power Ratings standpoint, I have the Indiana Pacers as the 2nd best team in the East and the Nets as the worst team in the NBA. We also have our BEST BET of the NBA season win totals on the Pacers OVER 44.5 wins and a future on the Pacers +3000 to win the East. As long as Indiana makes the Conference Finals, we can hedge for a huge payday. Indiana should win this game by double digits if then give a full 48 minutes of effort. The Pacers have covered 10 of the last 14 meetings in Brooklyn. Indiana has the advantage in every aspect of the game. Their starting 5 in fantastic at EVERY position and their bench is deep. The Brooklyn Nets lineup is just a bunch a guys holding on to still be able to play in the NBA. |

50* NBA GAME OF THE MONTH Los Angeles Clippers ML -128 What more do we have to say than "Playoff revenge?" The Trailblazers knocked out the Clippers last season, in the 1st round, but it was mainly due to the injuries the Clippers suffered. When the Clippers were healthy, they destroyed Portland. You know LA is going to come out fired up and what better way to get revenge then to beat this team on their home floor. They have also won 13 of the last 19 meetings. I believe Portland's success last year was an aberration and they will regress this year. All it takes is for Lilliard or McCollum to go cold and they're in trouble. Portland is also 1-8 ATS after scoring 100 points in their previous game and are 2-7 ATS following a win. This team is a good fade after a solid performance. |

50* NBA PLAYOFFS GAME OF THE YEAR Oklahoma City Thunder ML -149 If you don't want to lay the juice, consider buying the hook at -2. Personally playing 3% on money-line and 2% on -2 (-120) For all intents and purposes, this is Game 7. The winner of this game is going to win the series. Well, obviously if OKC wins tonight they clinch the West. However, if GS somehow pulls this one off, they're not losing Game 7 at home. This line is telling on who should win this game. Both games in OKC this series, they were 2 point home underdogs. Now they are 2 point home favorites, and this line is going to continue to climb. This team gets an insane lift from their crowd and teams clearly benefit from some home cooking from the referees in the playoffs. OKC winning Games 3 and 4 were not a fluke. It's not like they were close games that one play/call changed the entire outcome. The Thunder DESTROYED the Warriors by an average of 26 points per game. Role players usually perform 1000 times better at home as they feed off the energy of the crowd. That is what makes this OKC team so dangerous, with their role players coming up big when all the focus is on Westbrook and Durant. This is a terrible spot, ATS wise, for the Warriors tonight. They are now 0-4 against the number following a straight up win; where the Thunder are 13-3 ATS following a straight up loss. Golden State has also failed to cover the spread in 6 straight meetings in Oklahoma City. The length of OKC has simply been too much for the Warriors to handle. Westbrook isn't going to start off shooting the ball horrendously here at home. I expect the Thunder to be celebrating the West Title (and eventually the NBA Title) tonight. Best of luck to us and remember to always use proper money management. Don Anthony: TheBetterBettors.com |

20* Oklahoma City Thunder +7 I know this might be a trap but I don't care. You can't watch the last 2 games of this series and think that Golden State is the better team. The Thunder can do whatever they want, when they want. They're making the Warriors spectacular defense look like the 76ers. They have dropped 70+ in the FIRST HALF of the last 2 games. Yes, Golden State is going to get a HUGE boost from their fans at home but 7 points!? Come on now. I wouldn't be shocked to see OKC win this game outright. In order for Golden State just to WIN this game (not cover) they're going to have to shoot a ridiculous percentage from 3. In order for them to cover, OKC might just have to quit or someone get injured. From what we're seeing in this series, the Thunder look like world beaters and world beaters should not be getting 3 possessions in ANY game. |

05-25-16 | Raptors v. Cavs -11 | 78-116 | Win | 100 | 5 h 12 m | Show | |
30* Cleveland Cavaliers -11 Also lean over here. I'm expecting another repeat of Games 1 and 2 here. The Cavaliers simply took their opponent for granted. They'll get a huge boost from their home crowd tonight and their 3's should start to fall. Home court advantage means so much to these squads as the home team is now 7-0 ATS the last 7 meetings. Toronto is a poor road team against the number and Lowry is a delicate flower. He has shown he doesn't have the mental fortitude to play on the road and he is KEY for this team's success. Look for Cleveland to frustrate Lowry all night and for Lebron to take over and drive all night to the rim. |

40* NBA VEGAS INSIDER Golden State Warriors ML -147 Multiple guys I trust have GOY type plays on GSW tonight. The Warriors are still the team to beat and should win the NBA Finals. A lot of talk about Cleveland now and OKC being able to compete. I think Game 1 was a fluke. When Golden State is fully focused and doesn't go ICE cold from the floor, they can blowout ANYONE. Getting Golden State just to win on any night is worth the shot. The Warriors know what it takes to win the in playoffs and you simply can not go down 2-1 in a best of 7 series. History shows that only 30 teams have ever won the series after losing game 3, when tied up at a game a piece. GS does not want to have to be forced to win 3 out of 4. Albeit they are capable of doing it, but that's a lot of pressure, where a win tonight gives HFA right back to the Warriors. |

05-19-16 | Raptors v. Cavs OVER 196 | Top | 89-108 | Win | 100 | 40 h 48 m | Show |
50* NBA Playoffs TOTAL OF THE YEAR Toronto Raptors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers OVER 196 Game 1, some how, went under the opening number of 201. However, if you did bet 5 minutes before tip off, you won as the closing number was 198. But for all intents and purposes, Game 1 went under. This has caused the oddsmakers to adjust the total down now. If you watched this game, you would know that there was no shortage of offense. There was 110 points at the half and 162 at the end of 3. A 37 point fourth quarter is what made that game go under and it was because all the scrubs/bench players were in the game, due to the enormous blowout. Although the Cavs should win Game 2, Toronto should make this game more competitive, so we shouldn't have to worry about another dreadful 4th quarter. The Cleveland Cavaliers have been offensive juggernauts. They have scored 100 points in EVERY game this post-season. Going back into the regular season, they have eclipsed the century mark 19 straight times, 23 of their last 24, and 30 of their last 33. Cleveland also shoots a ton of 3 pointers and have been historically successful. If the trends are any indication, this game should FLY over. The Toronto Raptors are 24-5 to the over after a double digit straight up loss and the Cavaliers are 5-2 to the over after a double digit win. The over has also cashed in 5 of the last 6 meetings between these two clubs. When looking a the stats of last game, Toronto shot just above 40% and 20% from distance. Cleveland did shoot 55% but was just 7-20 from beyond the arc and this game still managed 199 points. Both teams manage to get fouled a lot, which is great for overs, as points are on the board with the clock stopped. As long as each team doesn't shoot abnormally bad and it's one of those games where it looks like there's a lid on the rim, this game should soar over the posted total. Best of luck to us and remember to always use proper money management. Don Anthony: TheBetterBettors.com |

50* One & Only NBA GAME OF THE YEAR San Antonio Spurs ML -140 I refuse to believe that the greatest coach of all time and the San Antonio Spurs are going to lose 3 games in a row in the playoffs. This series has been played very tightly and these games could have gone either way. What's been really bad has been the officiating. The Spurs finally came out after that Game 5 defeat saying these refs need to wake up. Between that non call on the sidelines with Dion Waiters, the non call when Kawhi INTENTIONALLY fouled Westbrook, to the CLEAR trip by Steven Adams (that gave Durant the go ahead FTs) OKC has been practically handed two games. Look, I know that blaming referees is childish for losses and you had plenty of chances to win before that, but calls very late in the game mean something. I'm sure with all the spotlight on these referees now, I can see them swallowing their whistles more and ANY 50-50 call going the Spurs way. It's still early and most action doesn't come in until the day of the game, but as of me writing this, the public LOVES the Thunder to close it out. 75% of the tickets are on OKC. The Spurs are favored on the ROAD for a reason here folks. This is a veteran team that has been here before and they won't go down without a fight. All the pressure is on OKC now for them to win this series on their home floor. Big time trouble if they lose this game tonight, having to go to San Antonio for a Game 7. The Spurs know that this series is far from over and my strongest bet of the season is banking on the best coach ever to figure out a way for his team to win a game after two tough losses. Best of luck to us and remember to always use proper money management. -Don Anthony: TheBetterBettors.com |

05-10-16 | Thunder v. Spurs -7 | Top | 95-91 | Loss | -108 | 5 h 25 m | Show |
40* NBA TOP PLAY BEST BET San Antonio Spurs -7 I expect this game to be just like Game 1. A dominating performance by the Spurs. This series is tied up 2-2 but the line sits at -7. This shows how much better the Spurs are with that line alone. San Antonio has been outstanding coming off a loss. They are 18-6 ATS. The Thunder are the opposite coming off a win. They are 1-4 ATS. I expect a huge showing from Tim Duncan. He got 4 quick fouls in Game 4 and was held scoreless for the first time in his career. This obviously benefited the Thunder greatly in the 4th quarter. Spurs are close to invincible at home and they have the best coach in the game. I look for a huge 2nd half run where the Spurs completely shut down the Thunder with their defense and use a 12-2 runs to blow this game open. |

20* Toronto Raptors vs. Miami Heat OVER 192 This line has jumped because of Valanciunas and Whiteside being ruled out. Both teams will be able to play faster and take the ball to the rack with more success without the tall trees down low. I expect a much faster pace and for Miami to have a much better game offensively as they are much better at home scoring. |

50* NBA TOTAL MAX BET Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Atlanta Hawks UNDER 199 One has to believe that the Cavaliers are due for a regression shooting the rock tonight. They made an NBA record, 25 three pointers in Game 2. Atlanta has got to put full focus on the defensive end tonight and I'm sure 100% of their preparation has gone into that. They have been much better on the defensive end at home. The under has cashed in 5 of the last 6 home games for Atlanta and the under has also hit in 7 of the last 8 games they have given up 100+ points in their previous game. This shows that they are well coached and able to step it up defensively after a poor performance. This game is very similar to the Miami Heat vs. Charlotte Hornets series. Miami had 2 fantastic offensive games in a row and blew out the Hornets in Game 1 and in Game 2. The Hornets stepped it up big time in Game 3 by winning a low scoring affair. I expect a similar result here. Not sure if Atlanta is going to win this game, but I fully expect a low scoring ugly basketball game tonight. |

40* NBA VEGAS INSIDER Cleveland Cavaliers -7.5 This is just like our Spurs bet and Warriors bet. Taking the home team in Game 1 with rest. The first two teams mentioned crushed their opponents and this game shouldn't be any different. The Cavaliers have owned the Hawks. This Hawk's front court is too soft for these Cavaliers. No one on this team is going to be able to stop all the threats the Cavaliers have. JR Smith, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Love have been lights out from distance. We all know LeBron can do whatever he wants and when he drives and dishes to wide open looks, these guys will drain them. The Cavaliers need to send a message right away to try and deflate any confidence the Hawks have and end this series quickly. They know they need all the rest they can get leading up to the Finals to be able to compete with the winner from the West. |

05-01-16 | Blazers v. Warriors -8.5 | Top | 106-118 | Win | 100 | 11 h 22 m | Show |
50* NBA 2nd Round GAME OF THE YEAR Golden State Warriors -8.5 A system that I love in the NBA Playoffs is playing on the home team in Game 1 on rest. San Antonio blasted Oklahoma City in that spot and I am expecting a very similar result in this one. Most people are going to see that Portland beat this team once this year and that there is no Curry, so they can keep this one close. In my opinion, the Trailblazers aren't that good of a team, especially on the road. The Clippers trounced them in the first 2 games of the 1st Round but we all know injuries gave them life and they got extremely lucky to move on. Portland relies way too heavily on the 3 ball and if they are not falling, they can get destroyed. Without Steph Curry, the Golden State Warriors are still one of the best teams in the league. When this team gets to play in front of their home crowd, it's really fun to watch. Even when they are locked up in a battle for 3 quarters, they still go on a serious run in the 4th and win by 20. We have seen it time and time again. They have now covered 5 straight games at home, all with huge spreads. Bottomline here is that this is a gigantic mis-match. Portland is terrible in their current spot and Golden State is dynamite in their situation. The Trailblazers are just 7-21 ATS at Golden State and have covered the spread just 8 times on the road, out of 29, facing a team with a winning record at home. |

50* NBA MAX BET Portland Trailblazers -10 Well the Clippers are finished. They had a slim chance at winning the series if they could've grabbed Game 5 at home, but now all hope is lost. Portland is simply too good on their home floor and the Clippers have nothing left in the tank. They know their playoffs hopes are over. I expect little to no life coming from these players. If Portland jumps out to an early lead, I can see LA simply quitting. The Clippers have been dreadful in this spot (and this was when they were healthy) going 1-6 ATS after a loss and just 1-4 ATS on the road. Say goodnight to the Los Angeles Clippers as that franchise continues to have horrible luck. |

04-29-16 | Heat v. Hornets -121 | Top | 97-90 | Loss | -121 | 18 h 48 m | Show |
50* NBA MAX BET Charlotte Hornets -121 It looks like the Charlotte Hornets have solved the Miami Heat. It seemed like they were dead in the water with 2 straight blowout defeats but now they have new life. They have a chance to win 4 straight and upset their division rivals. ALL the momentum is on their side. Although the Heat are the higher seed, they have the same record as the Hornets. This isn't your typical #3 vs. #6 matchup. The Hornets were a tiebreaker away from being the division winners. The Charlotte Hornets have been outstanding at home this season, going 32-11. It's extremely tough to beat this team on their home floor. This doesn't bode well for the Heat as they have been awful against the number on the road. Miami has covered the spread just once in their last 9 tries on the road. It's hard to imagine the Hornets letting this series slip through their fingers. They know this is a must win because you cannot go back to Miami and give D Wade and company hope. We all know the NBA history of home teams in Game 7 as they simply DO NOT lose. Look for Kemba Walker to take over this game and as long as the bench doesn't go ice cold from the floor, the Charlotte Hornets are moving on. |

50* NBA PLAYOFFS TOTAL OF THE MONTH Charlotte Hornets vs. Miami Heat OVER 193 Going back to Miami is the key here for this total. In the first two games of this series, the Miami Heat looked like the Golden State Warriors on offense. They put up 123 and 115 points at home but could not find an answer on the offensive end on the road. This has now given us value on the total with 2 lower scoring games in a row. I expect all focus in practice and all adjustments to be on the offensive side of the ball. Note that Miami is 4 points better at home than on the road. The Hornets have not done well playing defense on the road. They are 4 points worse on the defensive end on the road, giving up nearly 104 a game. The Hornets have gone over the total in 5 straight road games and in the last 26 meetings against the Heat, the number has eclipsed the total 19 times. |

20* Los Angeles Clippers ML -158 If -158 is too much juice for you, consider a money-line party with the OKC Thunder Taking the points out of the equation here. I don't see the Trailblazers winning another game in this series. Portland does have great HFA but that only gets you so far. LAC is simply better at every position. The only way Portland can win is when their backcourt of McCollum and Lilliard shoot lights out and go off. Basically a perfect game. LAC just need to play about 75% of their potential and they'll dominate with veteran talent and length. |

One of these games is due for an offensive explosion. We saw what happened in Game 3 of the Thunder game and I expect a similar result here. This is how we are going to attack the rest of this series. Game 4: 1% bet on the OVER 194 (if Game 4 stays under, this total will drop yet again) Game 5: 2% bet on (projected O/U 190-192) OVER (if Game 5 stays under, again the total will decrease) Game 6: 4% bet on (projected O/U 189-191) OVER Once the over hits, you stop wagering with a 1% profit (feel free to wager more, this is just an example) |

20* Indiana Pacers +1.5 This line looks a trap. The #2 seed is pick em' to the #7 seed. That is pretty rare folks. Indiana is a veteran playoff team with a great head coach and Raptors still have the stigma of struggling in the playoffs. These two teams are polar opposites in their current spot. Toronto has been dreadful coming off a SU + ATS win and Indiana has been fantastic coming of a SU + ATS loss. The Raptors are just 3-7 ATS coming off a SU win and 2-6 coming off an ATS win. The Pacers are a 8-2 ATS coming off a SU loss which includes going a perfect 4-0 ATS following a loss of double digits. Indiana really bounces back well after a poor performance. They are also 16-5 against the number playing on 2 days rest. These stats and trends show that this team prepares extremely well and that they are well coached. Look for Indiana to get it done tonight in front of the home fans. |

04-21-16 | Thunder v. Mavs OVER 196.5 | 131-102 | Win | 100 | 16 h 40 m | Show | |
THUNDER VS. MAVERICKS *BEST BET* We have now arrived at Game 3 of this series and it has been a surprise to many that this series is knotted up at a game a piece. What’s intriguing here is not the side actually, it’s the total. Game 1 opened at 213 and closed at 206. That game went way under with the final score, 108-70. Game 2 then opened at 200 and closed at 203. Nearly a 13 point adjustment and yet again, the game stayed way under at 85-84. Of course the oddsmakers are forced to drop this line even more and now we are at 195.5 for Game 3. This is nearly a 20 point drop off since the beginning of the series. Where I am going with this is that eventually ONE of these games has got to go over. There is a great chance for Game 3 to go over as I am expecting a huge bounce back performance on offense from KD. He was a horrendous 7-33 in the Game 2 defeat and had some great looks at the end of the game to win. This series now has to go 5 games. I recommend we attack the total like this: Game 3: 1% bet on the OVER 195.5 (if Game 3 stays under, this total will drop yet again) Game 4: 2% bet on (projected O/U 191-193) OVER (if Game 4 stays under, again the total will decrease) Game 5: 4% bet on (projected O/U 189-191) OVER Once the over hits, you stop wagering with a 1% profit (feel free to wager more, this is just an example) With a possibility of a 25 point adjustment over just a few games, this seems like money in the bank for us as these NBA players are too good offensively to be shut down over and over again. There’s always at least 1 game in a series where each team is clicking on all cylinders on the offensive end. In all honesty, O/U 190 isn’t even a great offensive output. I have extreme confidence for this system in this series. |

04-20-16 | Pistons +10.5 v. Cavs | Top | 90-107 | Loss | -115 | 42 h 11 m | Show |
40* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK Detroit Pistons +10.5 Plain and simple. I don't think the Cavaliers should ever be laying double digits to the Pistons. The Cavaliers continue to be backed heavily by the public and they have been burning up money, especially in this spot. Cleveland is known for failing to cover the spread following a straight up win. They are just 3-8 ATS their last 11 tries and have been even worse against Detroit at home. Cleveland is just 2-9 ATS against the Pistons at the Q. Detroit showed that they can compete with the Cavaliers and that was when "The Big 3" all had stellar games. Kevin Love played out of his mind and Detroit still had a 7 point lead in the 4th quarter. I think a big key here is Van Gundy calling out the referees and rightly so. Although he was fined 25K, the referees in this game will definitely be thinking about the bias and some calls may go Detroit's way, where we know if nothing was said, ALL the calls would go Lebron's way. The Pistons have been outstanding lately against the number and have covered 5 straight following a straight up loss. As long as Detroit doesn't have a poor performance from the perimeter, they should be able to keep this one close late in the game and stay within double digits. |

04-19-16 | Grizzlies +18 v. Spurs | 68-94 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 40 m | Show | |
20* Memphis Grizzlies +18 I know it seems a bit crazy to back this awful Grizzlies team. But historically speaking, teams that have been blown out in Game 1, have done exceptionally well in Game 2 covering the number. They've covered 65% of the time in the last 25 years. The Raptors, Mavs, and Rockets all lost by double digits Game 1 and they all covered the spread in Game 2. The Mavs looked like the biggest joke in Game 1 in the playoffs and they bounced back and won outright as 13 point dogs. Now let's be real. I'm not saying the Grizzlies can win this game outright, but 18 points a ton of points to be laying in the playoffs. Even if the Spurs jump out to a huge lead, I can see them pulling starters and taking their foot of the gas, allowing the back door cover for the Grizz. |

04-18-16 | Mavs v. Thunder OVER 200 | 85-84 | Loss | -100 | 20 h 58 m | Show | |
30* NBA Oddsmaker Error Dallas Mavericks vs. Oklahoma City Thunder OVER 200 This total, in my opinion, is now an extreme over adjustment. Game 1 opened at one book at 213 and all the other spots opened at 211. The total did end up settling at 206 at close and we saw the game go way under. Now, the oddsmakers are forced to drop this total 11-13 points. I believe there is solid value on the over now. I will say this. Although I love our chances to cash this ticket, if this game does stay under like Game 1, we are going to have a huge play on the over in Game 3 because this total will drop even further. Dallas comes off just a dreadful offensive performance. They are going to have to make serious adjustments after Game 1. Their game plan changed late in the season to strictly solid defense and it was working. It clearly has zero effect on the speed of OKC. Both teams do like shooting the 3 ball so this works to our advantage. If they are dropping like crazy, obviously that's a bonus. But if they're missing (obviously we don't want most of them to miss) then it leads to easy transition buckets and that's the last thing you want to give the Thunder. As long as this game doesn't turn into an absolute blowout and Dallas can keep it close, with them being down 0-1, the foul game late in the 4th quarter should be prolonged and this could be the deciding factor in sending this game over the posted total. Best of luck to us tonight and remember to always use proper money management. Don Anthony: TheBetterBettors.com |

20* NBA PARLAY Boston Celtics vs. Atlanta Hawks UNDER 204 Sources and other professionals I have spoken with are all over either the Hawks or the under or BOTH. I do strongly agree with the under as it is typically a great bet taking unders in Game 1's. Just look at the Raptors game. We already connected big with that under and I expect a very similar result here. |

40* NBA TOTAL OF THE WEEK Indiana Pacers vs. Toronto Raptors UNDER 195 My top NBA totals guy loves this play and we agree with it. Both these teams have very underrated defenses. In years past, its typically a great bet to take Game 1's UNDER the total and Game 3's over the total, especially if Games 1 and 2 go under. The trends back our selection here as well. The Pacers and Raptors are a combined 12-1 to the under following a spread win. They have also had 2 days to prepare for this game and it's a very early start for these players. This definitely favors the Raptors and if the Raptors are going to win this one, they're going to do it on the defensive end. |

50* NBA BLOWOUT GAME OF THE MONTH Portland Trailblazers -9.5 This play is a bit dependent on the Dallas Mavericks because if Dallas wins (which they should) Portland has to win to be the #5 seed in the playoffs and take on the LA Clippers. They can not afford to drop to 6th and face OKC. Portland has one of the best HFA's (home field advantage) in the game. Denver has not been playing great late in the season and you know the off-season and the summer is on their minds. Coach Terry Stotts (who should be NBA Coach of the year) has mentioned that they will go out in this game to prepare for the playoffs. The Trailblazers have had 3 days off to prepare for this game and they have been great in this spot, going 4-1 ATS. They are also 11-3 ATS following a straight up loss. This team is excellent coming off a poor performance and with 3 days to think about it and to prepare, Portland should blowout an unmotivated Denver squad tonight. |

40* NBA VEGAS INSIDER Philadelphia 76ers +10.5 The Toronto Raptors are the biggest public favorite tonight, yet the line has dropped 2 points in some spots. Nearly 4 of every 5 tickets are on the home squad. The key here is motivation. Toronto is in full rest mode as they are locked into the #2 seed. Yes, the 76ers are an awful team but they have been competitive lately. In their last 5 games, they took the Bucks to OT, beat the Pelicans, and kept it close against the Hornets and Pacers (had a lead late in the game.) They also don't need to tank the last two games of the season because they have already clinched the worst record in the NBA. Philadelphia has been great against the number against the great teams of the league. The 76ers have covered 6 of their last 7 facing a team with a winning percentage above 60% and are 6-2 ATS coming off a loss, where the Raptors are just 1-5 facing a team with a winning percentage of less than 40% and are 1-6 ATS following a straight up win. Although I don't expect Philly to steal the home finale from the Raptors tonight, look for the 76ers to keep it within single digits. |

04-11-16 | Wizards v. Nets OVER 210.5 | Top | 120-111 | Win | 100 | 21 h 37 m | Show |
50* NBA EASTERN CONFERENCE TOTAL OF THE MONTH Brooklyn Nets vs. Washington Wizards OVER 210.5 If there's one thing we have seen over the past week or so, teams that are out of playoff contention have seen their games soar over the total. This is typically a great angle late in the season in recent years as these teams refuse to play defense and really show off their offensive skills. These games feature a ton of shots and a lot of 3 point attempts. Given the recent performances of both clubs and that they are playing the 2nd of a back-to-back, 3rd game in 4 nights, and 4th game in 6 nights, defense should be an after thought and this game should be a shootout. Brooklyn has been a train-wreck on the defensive end. They have given up an average of 121 points in their last 3 games and 116 points in their last 9 games. They also give up a ton of fast break points as well. As for Washington, they have given up an average of 109 points in their last 10 games and the total has gone over in 4 straight games for the Wiz. These teams just met up a few nights ago and Washington put up 121 points on these Nets. The trends also back our selection here as the Nets have gone over the total in 5 straight facing a team with a losing record and 12-4 their last 16 home games. The Wizards have gone over the total in 11 of the last 15 games playing without rest. |

The over has cashed in 5 straight for the Magic and the over is also 4-1 for the Bucks when their starters combine to play for over 160 minutes. This play is a combination of tired teams and the late season over angle. |

40* NBA VEGAS INSIDER Memphis Grizzlies +6.5 I am personally buying the hook to +7 as this is a very key number. Most will look at this game and think Memphis has nothing to play for and Dallas must win to stay alive in the playoffs. Well so far 3 out of every 4 tickets are on the home team but the line hasn't budged. There is definitely a tax on the Mavericks tonight. All the pressure is on them. We just saw what that can do last night. Houston in the NBA and Philly in the NHL. BOTH teams desperately needed wins and they both lost as huge favorites. I'm not going as far as saying Memphis wins outright, but I do believe they stay inside the number. This game actually does mean something for them as they can't afford to drop to the 6th seed. This would then get them OKC in the first round and not the Clippers. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that you would rather play LA than OKC. Memphis has actually covered 5 of their last 6 games facing a team with a winning record and after tonight, I expect it to bet 6 out of 7. Currently looking at Lakers, Lakers/Pelicans OVER 203, and Denver ML. Checking a few things first and will post if game(s) become official plays. |

30* Los Angeles Lakers vs. New Orleans Pelicans OVER 203 It's usually a good bet to take overs late in the season with two teams that have nothing to play for. Teams don't give a strong defensive effort and put their offensive skills on display.

50* NBA WESTERN CONFERENCE TOTAL OF THE MONTH Houston Rockets vs. Dallas Mavericks UNDER 208 We cashed with Dallas going under the total in a very similar spot recently against the Pistons and we should see a repeat performance again tonight. Like that game, This contest has HUGE playoff implications for BOTH teams. Typically big or important games go under because both teams step of their defensive intensity. Dallas has been phenomenal on the defensive end during their winning streak, not allowing 90 points in any of those 4 victories. They also haven't scored above 97 points in those games as well. The under has cashed in 6 straight games for Dallas following a win. Houston has also been on an under tear. They have gone under the posted total in 4 straight games on the road. Another key stat here is that the under is 6-1 when Houston allows 100+ points in their previous game. This typically means they step up their defense after a poor one. Both teams have had 2 days off to prepare for this game so I expect them to have a terrific defensive game-plan, given the fact this game could be the difference between playing golf or the playoffs. Best of luck to us and remember to always use proper money management. -Don Anthony: TheBetterBettors.com |

50* NBA UNDERDOG OF THE MONTH Brooklyn Nets +15 Both teams don't have much to play for now. The Wizards technically aren't eliminated from the post-season yet, but for all intents and purposes, they're done. Washington is currently 3.5 games out. If they win this game, they would be 3 games out with 4 games to play. They would have to win out and have Detroit lose the rest of their games. That's not happening. Team chemistry is also fragile right now with Beal calling out his players and Gortat immediately taking to twitter saying he disagrees. This is an awful spot for Washington. They are returning home from a 5 game west coast roadie that ended in LA. That's literally all the way across the country to return home. The Wiz went 2-3 on the trip but their wins were against the Suns and the Lakers (who everyone should beat.) I understand that the Nets have been a train wreck but they have known their season was over a long time ago. They now have shut down their top players. Brooklyn will be playing with a lot of "no-names" but I believe they give more effort than the Wizards tonight because these guys will be playing for jobs. Also, they will relish the fact that they don't get a lot of playing time so they will go all out. The Nets are also 12-4 ATS when playing on 2 days rest. Bottomline here is that in order to beat a team by 15+ points, you need to give 100% effort for the entire game. The Wizards are notorious for blowing leads or having terrible shooting quarters. Even if Washington does go up big here, I expect the backdoor to be wide open late in the game. Best of luck to us and remember to always use proper money management. -Don Anthony: TheBetterBettors.com |

They had them beat but unbelievably bad free throw shooting cost them that game. At one point they were 3-13 in the fourth quarter. You should be fined after a performance like that. But anyways, the Jazz just beat these T'Wolves recently so we have the revenge angle here for Minnesota and the Jazz possibly taking them lightly tonight. Minnesota also comes off a blowout loss at home and it's usually good spot to back a team in that situation as they look to bounce back. |

40* NBA TOTAL OF THE WEEK Dallas Mavericks vs. Detroit Pistons UNDER 205.5 This game has huge playoff implications for BOTH teams. Typically big or important games go under because both teams step of their defensive intensity. Another key here is that the Pistons have had 2 days off prior to this game so they have extra time to rest their legs and to prepare. In fact, the Pistons are 5-0 to the under their last 5 when playing on 2 days rest. The Mavericks are a real shaky team on offense. This team takes a lot of jump shots and three pointers. They are notorious for their offensive dry spells. Obviously if Dallas gets hot this could smell trouble for us, but I believe Detroit will knock Dallas off their spots and off the 3 point line given the fact they have some familiarity with the Mavs since playing them recently to a final score of 102-96. |

They come off a dreadful loss in front of their home crowd against the Rockets, where they blew a 20 point lead. LeBron did sit out the game however, so he should be completely rested for this one. You know these players have a bad taste in their mouth and I'm sure LeBron is going to get these guys fired up for tonight's game, especially with having revenge on their minds from an embarrassing loss to the Nets in their last match up a few days ago. Cleveland's hold on on first place in the East isn't as strong now as the Raptors only trail by 2 games with a victory over the Hawks on Wednesday. The Cavaliers need this game badly and I expect 100% focus form them tonight, even though they are playing a terrible team as they can not afford to look past the Nets. |

In fact, the T'Wolves are 0-4 ATS when their starting 5 plays more than 160 minutes combined the previous game.

As you know, we love fading teams coming home from long road trips and the Clips are returning home from a 5 game roadie that includes a back to back at the Golden State Warriors. It doesn't get much worse than that from a situational stand point. Los Angeles has just 1 win against the spread in their last 8 games overall and they haven't covered the number in 6 tries against a team with a winning record. This is also a great public fade tonight as the Clippers are the second highest public favorite tonight, right behind the Cavaliers. |

40* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK Portland Trailblazers -6 Typically in the NBA its a smart bet to play on a team when they lose the first game of a home and home series against an opponent. Portland lost to Dallas a couple days ago in a tough fought OT battle in Dallas. Portland has been exceptional cashing tickets coming off a loss. They have won 20 of their last 27 against the spread. When looking at identical situations and trends for how both teams fare in their current spot, Portland is hot and Dallas is cold. The Blazers are 7-0 ATS following a loss of 10+ points where the Mavericks are 5-11 ATS following a win of 10+ points. Furthermore, Portland is 9-1 ATS playing on 2 days rest where Dallas is just 7-19 ATS with 2 days off. This shows that the Blazers use the time off much better to prepare and even more so coming off a defeat. It's no surprise, the Trailblazers play much better at home and the Mavericks are much worse on the road. Dallas is just 8-22 covering the number facing a team with a winning home record and this is extremely important as the home team in this series is 6-1 against the number in the last 7 meetings. With Portland coming into this contest losing the first two meetings of the season and with Dallas in a possible lookahead spot with Golden State on deck, look for Damian Lilliard and company to get their revenge tonight. Best of luck to us and remember to always use proper money management. -Don Anthony: TheBetterBettors.com |

40* NBA BLOWOUT GAME OF THE WEEK Raptors -9 The public loves the Bulls right now. It looks just way too easy to take Chicago, getting this many points. This is a terrific spot to back the Raptors tonight. They have lost all 3 meetings this season and 8 straight to the Bulls. Massive revenge spot here for Toronto. You could say Chicago just has their number but this isn't the same Chicago team right now. They're riddled with injuries and have zero depth. They have also been flat out awful on the road. They have lost 8 straight and 10 of their last 11 and 8 of those defeats have been by 9 or more points. |
