MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY How Can Joel Embiid possibly top his 70-point performance in Philadelphia's 133-123 win over the San Antonio Spurs on Monday? Well, he's had two days of rest since, and I think we'll see a hungry and super-focused Sixers side looking to avenge a 132-126 home loss to the Pacers back in November. The Pacers are 24-21 for the season, but they've dropped five of their last six games. 76ers are 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 games as a road favorite. 76ers are 25-12-1 ATS in their last 38 games following a straight up win. Pacers are 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games as a home underdog of 5.0-10.5. 4* PLAY ON THE 76ERS.

GAME OF THE YEAR ALERT - 5* CAVS/BUCKS MAX BET The Milwaukee Bucks are coming off two lackluster wins against Detroit, but I think they'll come out fired up tonight as they look to avenge a 135-105 beatdown in Cleveland from a week ago. The Cavs have since recorded dominant wins in Atlanta and Orlando and they'll likely be running out of steam. All things considered, this is a fantastic spot to back the Bucks. 5* PLAY ON THE BUCKS.

MIKE'S CHIEFS/BILLS NFL NO BRAINER Both the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs had their struggles during the regular season, but they both looked solid in the Wild Card round. The Bills have heated up lately, winning each of their last six games, a winning streak that started with a 20-17 win at Arrowhead, but I like the Chiefs to cover the number and possibly also win outright here in the divisional round. While Buffalo's defense has stepped up in recent weeks, I just think the Chiefs' D is on another level and as much as I respect Josh Allen, how can you go against Patrick Mahomes in a playoff game? 3* PLAY ON THE CHIEFS.

MAX BET ALERT - 5* BUCS/LIONS NFL DIV ROUND GAME OF THE YEAR I find it absolutely ridiculous that the Detroit Lions are asked to cover just under a touchdown against this Tampa Bay team that demolished the Eagles in the Wild Card round. The Lions meanwhile were outgained by almost 100 yards in their 24-23 win over the Rams. Sure, you're never as good as your best game and never as bad as your worst, but I am more than happy to take the points on the Bucs in this game. 5* PLAY ON THE BUCS.

MAX BET ALERT - 5* GB/SF DIV PLAYOFFS TOTAL OF THE YEAR The Green Bay Packers put up 48 points against the Cowboys in Dallas in the Wild Card round, but they'll face a much tougher defense here against the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Playoffs. The Niners have the third-best scoring defense in the NFL holding opponents to 17.5 points per game, and I think they'll be able to take an early lead and then start to bleed clock. I would lean to the 49ers to cover the spread as long as it's under 10, but I'm worried about the backdoor cover and feel that the under is a much better play. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER.

The Pels' play on the defensive end of the hardwood is underrated, and situational trends indicate that this game will go under the total. Under is 8-2 in Pelicans last 10 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. Under is 7-2 in Suns last 9 games as a road underdog.

If either of these three is out, the total will drop and I like the under in this game. The Mavs won 127-125 with a total of 235.5 when these two teams battled it out in Dallas last month, but the previous four meetings had all gone under the total.

Houston rookie QB CJ Stroud has been stealing most of the headlines from the rest of the team (and deservedly so), but the Texans defense has been sneaky good. The Texans limited the Titans to three points last week; the under is 5-1 in Texans last 6 games after allowing less than 15 points in their previous game and 9-3 in Texans last 12 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. 4* PLAY ON THE UNDER.

The Gators lost back-to-back games to close out November but have won six in a row since, including an impressive 106-101 win at Michigan.

MIKE'S 4* SPURS/BLAZERS NBA TOTAL PLAY OF THE DAY The San Antonio Spurs are 20-9 to the over on the season, but I think the bookmakers are overestimating how many points we'll see when they visit Portland on Thursday night. Sure, both teams have struggled on the defensive end of the court all season, but they're also among the worst when it comes to scoring. The under is 5-1 in Trail Blazers last 6 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. 4* PLAY ON THE UNDER.

MAX BET ALERT: MIKE'S 5* CBB GAME OF THE WEEK The Cal State Northridge Matadors are 9-3 SU and 9-1 ATS on the season. The bookmakers will adjust eventually, but I think they're undervalued once again here for this matchup against Cal Poly Mustangs. They defeated UCLA as a 17-point road underdog on Dec 19 and this Cal Poly is not nearly as good as the Bruins. 5* PLAY ON CSU NORTHRIDGE.

I expect the Wolves to bounce back with a strong outing and they should be able to take advantage of tired Mavs legs. The over is 4-1 in Mavericks last 5 games playing on 0 days rest. 3* PLAY ON THE OVER.

MIKE'S KRAKEN/FLAMES NHL MONEYLINE The Calgary Flames have won eight of nine meetings with the Kraken, and I like them to come through for us with a strong outing after taking a 5-3 loss to the Kings in their last game. Seattle is coming off a pair of wins and defeated Anaheim 3-2 in its last game, but note that the Kraken are 2-8 in their last 10 after allowing 2 goals or less in their previous game. 3* PLAY ON THE FLAMES.

The West Virginia Mountaineers on the other hand couldn't be happier to be here and I think they'll get the win and cover. 4* PLAY ON WEST VIRGINIA.

MIKE'S 4* GUARANTEED RATE BOWL BOOKIE BREAKER I like the UNLV Rebels to cover the spread against Kansas in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl on Tuesday. UNLV has been undervalued by the oddsmakers and bettors all season, going 10-3 ATS while covering the spread by an average of 7.3 points. The Rebels lost some momentum down the stretch but I have no doubt they'll show up again here in their first bowl appearance since the 2013 season. 4* PLAY ON UNLV.
