MIKE'S HAWKS/HEAT NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

Miami is a superior team to the Hawks who rely on Trae Young way too much. The Hawks did well against the spread during the regular season, but now when it really matters they do not have the depth to compete with a team like the Heat. 

8* PLAY ON MIAMI HEAT. 

MIKE'S WARRIORS/BLAZERS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

Same reasoning as when we won with the Blazers as an underdog last night. 

The Blazers have not been winning games with their young lineup, but they're competing and covering spreads. The Warriors need a win and a Clippers loss to clinch the No. 5 seed in the West, but their motivation to win gives the bookmakers a reason to shade the line as squares will still line up to back the Warriors. no matter the number.

Warriors are 17-38-1 ATS in their last 56 road games.

8* PLAY ON PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS. 

MIKE'S NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Blazers have not been winning games with their young lineup, but they're competing and covering spreads. The Clippers can finish as high as the fifth seed by winning the last two games, but their motivation to win gives the bookmakers a reason to shade the line as squares will still line up to back the Clippers. no matter the number. 

Trail Blazers are 3-0 ATS in their last three and I think their young guns will keep fighting and keep this relatively close. 

8* PLAY ON PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS. 

MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* NBA TOTAL PLAY OF THE DAY

The injury-riddled Charlotte Hornets are giving their young guns a lot of playing time down the stretch, which has hurt their offense. In their last three games, the Hornets have scored 91, 108 and 100 points. 

Under is 40-19-1 in Hornets last 60 home games. Under is 6-1 in Rockets last 7 road games vs. a team with a losing home record. Under is 19-7 in Rockets last 26 vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Under is 13-3 in the last 16 meetings in Charlotte.

10* PLAY ON UNDER. 

MIKE'S CAVS/MAGIC NBA TOTAL BOOKIE BU$TER

We saw a total of 230 points scored when Orlando hosted the Cavs Tuesday night, but I think we'll see fewer points scored in tonight's game. 

Under is 10-4 in Cavaliers last 14 vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Under is 6-2 in Magic last 8 vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Under is 13-4 in the last 17 meetings.

8* PLAY ON UNDER. 

MIKE'S KINGS/MAVS NBA TOTAL BOOKIE BU$TER

Reports have suggested that the Mavs are considering shutting down Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving for the rest of the regular season to help their NBA draft lottery odds, but no such decision has been made yet. That being sad, if they fall behind here to the Kings, there's a chance they could opt to give their stars a break, which would hurt their scoring.  

Under is 17-7-1 in Kings last 25 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Under is 30-12-1 in Mavericks last 43 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

For the season, NBA games with a total of 240 points or higher are 41-29 to the under. 

8* PLAY ON UNDER. 

MIKE'S 10* NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Knicks are riding a four-game winning streak through which they have averaged 121.5 ppg. Indiana's defense has been below par all season, but particularly bad in recent games with 130.2 ppg allowed over their last five. 

Over is 12-5-1 in Knicks last 18 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Over is 36-16 in Pacers last 52 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

10* PLAY ON OVER. 

MIKE'S 10* NBA WEST TOTAL OF THE YEAR

The Warriors are 42-33-4 to the over for the season, and the Thunder are 45-33-1 to the over, but this is way too high of a total IMO. Under is 19-7 in Thunder last 26 vs. a team with a winning straight up record and  6-1-1 in Warriors last 8 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. Under is 15-3 in the last 18 meetings at Chase Center.

10* PLAY ON UNDER. 

MIKE'S 10* SIXERS/BUCKS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY

This looks like a great spot to back the Bucks to bounce back from a humiliating 41-point loss to Boston. The Bucks are 13-5 ATS in their last 18 games following an ATS loss and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up loss. They're 1.5 games behind Boston for the No. 1 seed in the East and I think they'll snap back with a big game tonight. 

10* PLAY ON MILWAUKEE BUCKS. 

MIKE'S SUNS/THUNDER NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Suns are coming off four straight wins while the Thunder are 0-6 ATS in their last six games, but I expect a strong effort from an undervalued OKC side here. The Thunder are getting more points than they should due to recency bias and public perception. 

Thunder are 33-9 ATS in their last 42 Sunday games and the Suns are 1-5 ATS in the last 6 meetings in Oklahoma City.

8* PLAY ON OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER. 

MIKE'S RAPTORS/HORNETS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Raptors are 43-34 to the over for the season, but under is 8-3 in Raptors last 11 road games vs. a team with a losing home record and 4-1 in Raptors last 5 Sunday games. Under is 36-15-1 in Hornets last 52 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400. Under is 22-6 in Hornets last 28 after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game.

8* PLAY ON UNDER. 

MIKE'S 10* KINGS/BLAZERS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Kings are 3-0 to the under in their last three games, but two of those games saw 234 points scored. We saw only 200 points when they defeated Portland 120-80 here at Moda Center Wednesday night, but I expect to see more from the home team tonight. 

Portland has struggled to get easy baskets lately, but pretty much every team in the league can put up big numbers against Sacramento. 

Over is 11-3-1 in Kings last 15 overall and 6-2 in the last 8 meetings in Portland.

10* PLAY ON OVER. 

MIKE'S 10* NBA TOTAL GAME OF THE MONTH

New Orleans is playing a lot better defense than they're getting credit for. In their last five games, the Pels have held opponents to 100.0 ppg and the under is 6-1 in their last seven games and 9-2 in Pelicans last 11 vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Denver is also solid defensively and the under is 6-0 in the Nuggets last six gams and 9-2 in Nuggets last 11 vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

10* PLAY ON UNDER. 

MIKE'S LAKERS/BULLS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Lakers lost to the Bulls as a five-point home favorite last Sunday. They've had two days rest since that loss while Chicago battled the Clippers Monday night. I expect the well-rested Lakers to get revenge tonight. 

Lakers are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 2 days rest. Lakers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following an ATS loss. Lakers are 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings in Chicago.

8* PLAY ON LOS ANGELES LAKERS. 

MIKE'S 10* JAZZ/SPURS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Jazz still have a chance to make the play-in tournament, but after four straight losses there's virtually no margin for error. A date with the Spurs could be just what the doctor ordered to get back to their winning ways. 

Jazz are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a double-digit loss at home. Jazz are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games. Spurs are 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game. Spurs are 7-21 ATS in their last 28 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

10* PLAY ON UTAH JAZZ. 

CAVS/HAWKS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Cavs are a dangerous opponent, but I think Miami is underrated here. The Hawks are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up loss. Hawks are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. Cavaliers are 0-4 ATS in the last 4 meetings in Atlanta.

8* PLAY ON ATLANTA HAWKS. 

MIKE'S BULLS/CLIPPERS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

This looks like a great spot to back the Clippers after getting humiliated by the Pels here at Crypto.com Arena on Saturday. They'll face a Bulls team that will play on 0 days rest after defeating the Lakers 118-108 in this building yesterday. The Bulls are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 0 days rest and 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. The Clippers are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points.

8* PLAY ON LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS. 

MIKE'S 10* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

This looks like a great spot to fade the Wolves who are coming off an upset win at Golden State last night. While the Timberwolves are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 0 days rest, note that they are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS win and here they'll face a Kings team that has been playing very well since the All-Star break. The Kings are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games overall and 7-3-1 ATS in their last 11 home games vs. a team with a losing road record.

10* PLAY ON SACRAMENTO KINGS. 

MIKE'S 10* NETS/MAGIC NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Nets snapped a five-game skid with a 129-100 win at Miami last night. They'll be playing on no rest here in Orlando Sunday night, but I think they'll have enough gas left in the tank to compete and get the win. Nets are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games. Nets are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Magic are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 home games. Magic are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games following a straight up win.

10* PLAY ON BROOKLYN NETS. 

MIKE'S MAVS/HORNETS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Hornets defeated the Mavs 117-109 in Dallas a couple of nights ago. Now the Mavericks are asked to cover a double-digit spread at Charlotte and the way they've played lately I would not be surprised if they lost this one ouright as well. The trade for Kyrie Irving has not played out the way Dallas would have hoped for at all, and the Mavericks are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 road games vs. a team with a losing home record and 7-22-1 ATS in their last 30 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

8* PLAY ON CHARLOTTE HORNETS. 

MIKE'S PELICANS/CLIPPERS NBA BOOKIE BRAEKER

This looks like a good spot to back the Clippers who are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

The Pels are coming off a 19-point win over Charlotte but they are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points, 5-15 ATS in their last 20 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and 7-22 ATS in their last 29 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.

8* PLAY ON LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS

MIKE'S 10* THUNDER/LAKERS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

This looks like a good spot to back the Thunder to bounce back from a blowout loss to the Clippers here at Crypto.com Arena last night. The Thunder are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games following an ATS loss, 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points.

The Lakers are coming off a 122-111 win over Phoenix, but they are only Lakers are 10-21 ATS in their last 31 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. Additionally, note that the Thunder are 7-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings in Los Angeles.

10* PLAY ON OKC THUNDER. 

MIKE'S SUNS/KINGS NBA BOOKIE BOMBER

The Kings have allowed 118, 128 and 132 points over their last three games and the over is 35-17-1 in Kings' last 53 home games. The over is 7-1-1 in Suns' last 9 overall.

8* PLAY ON OVER. 

MIKE'S 10* SIXERS/BULLS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

This looks like a great spot to back the Sixers to avenge a 109-105 OT loss to the Bulls home in Philly a couple of days ago. The Sixers came into that game riding an eight-game winning streak (6-2 ATS) and the Bulls are only 4-9 ATS in their last 13 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

Additionally, the 76ers are 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings and 6-0 ATS in the last 6 meetings in Chicago.

10* PLAY ON PHILADELPHIA 76ERS. 

MIKE'S KNICKS/HEAT NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Knicks gave up 140 points in a loss to Minnesota in their last game. The under is 35-17-1 in Knicks' last 53 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game and 5-1 in Heat's last 6 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

8* PLAY ON UNDER. 

MIKE'S 10* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK MAX BET

The Clippers are coming off a 117-102 win at Portland, but I think they're in for a tougher game here against an OKC team that is an amazing 42-26-3 ATS on the season. OKC has won seven of its last nine straight up and the Thunder are 18-8-1 ATS as underdogs of five points or more while the Clippers are 13-14 ATS when giving five points or more. 

10* PLAY ON OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER. 

MIKE'S CAVS/NETS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Nets are coming into this game on a three-game losing streak SU and ATS. They took a 108-103 home loss to Denver on Sunday, and here they'll face a well-rested Cavs team that has had three days off since its 117-94 blowout win over Washington. The Cavaliers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and I think they'll get the win and cover here in Brooklyn Tuesday night.

8* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. 

MIKE'S PACERS/HORNETS NBATOTAL

The Pacers have been involved in mostly high-scoring games lately, but I think this matchup with the Hornets will go under the total. The Hornets have averaged only 103.6 ppg over their last five games and the under is 16-5 in Hornets last 21 overall. The under is 13-4-1 in Pacers last 18 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400.

8* PLAY ON UNDER. 

MIKE'S BULLS/SIXERS SIDE

This looks like a good spot to back a red-hot Sixers team against a Bulls side that is 9-19 ATS in its last 28 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600 and 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 road games. The 6ers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record and 22-9 ATS in their last 31 home games. Additionally, the Bulls are 1-8 ATS in the last 9 meetings with Philly. 

8* PLAY ON PHILADELPHIA 76ERS. 

MIKE'S BULLS/SIXERS TOTAL

This looks like a good spot to back a red-hot Sixers team against a Bulls side that is 9-19 ATS in its last 28 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600 and 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 road games. The 6ers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record and 22-9 ATS in their last 31 home games. Additionally, the Bulls are 1-8 ATS in the last 9 meetings with Philly. 

I also like the over. I don't see how Chicago will be able to stop a Sixers offense that is firing on all cylinders at the moment, but it's also worth noting that Chicago has averaged 120.4 ppg over its last five games. 

8* PLAY ON OVER. 

MIKE'S MAGIC/LAKERS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Phoenix Suns ended a three-game slide with a win against Orlando Thursday night, but they are 0-4 ATS in their last four games.

The Thunder are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points, 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game and 10-4-1 ATS in their last 15 games following a straight up loss.

They'll be looking to bounce back from a home loss to Philadelphia and the Cavaliers are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games following an ATS loss and 9-4-1 ATS in their last 14 games following a straight up loss. The Wizards are in a potential flat spot after recording a 20-point win over Detroit in their last game. 

10* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS.

8* PLAY ON DENVER NUGGETS. 

WARRIORS/CLIPPERS TOTAL BOOKIE BOMBER

The Warriors are coming off wins over Milwaukee and Phoenix, but they had the homecourt advantage in both those games. On the road, the Warriors are only 7-26 SU on the season and they are 16-34-1 ATS in their last 51 road games. The Clippers are riding a three-game winning streak and they've had plenty of time to rest up since a 106-95 triumph over the Knicks last Saturday. The Clippers are 27-8-1 ATS in their last 36 games playing on 3 or more days rest.

I also like the under as the under is 20-6 in Clippers last 26 home games vs. a team with a losing road record.

MIKE'S LAKERS/PELS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Pels are coming off a dominant win over Portland, but they've not been at their best lately with only three wins SU and ATS in their last 10 games. The Lakers on the other hand have been winning games with or without star LeBron James who has missed six of the last nine games. Lakers are 17-5 ATS in their last 22 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Pelicans are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points.

10* PLAY ON LOS ANGELES LAKERS.

8* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. 

MIKE'S BUCKS/KINGS LATE-NIGHT NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Bucks are 12-5-3 ATS as road favorites on the season, 7-2-1 ATS when giving five points or fewer and 4-1-1 ATS when giving two points or fewer. The Kings are 6-9 ATS at home against opponents with a winning record. 

Bucks are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 road games. Kings are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. Bucks are 11-5 ATS in the last 16 meetings in Sacramento.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is questionable (hand) but I expect the Bucks to get the W either way.

8* PLAY ON MILWAUKEE BUCKS. 

10* GRIZZLIES/MAVS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

No Ja Morant, no problem. The Grizzlies are coming off back-to-back home wins over Golden State and Dallas, and I think they'll get it done at Dallas as well. The Mavs have injury issues of their own; both Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving missed Saturday's loss to Memphis. Doncic is expected to be out until at least Mar 15 while Irving is listed as a game-time decision for this game.

The Hornets are 6-20-1 ATS in their last 27 games when their starting 5 players combine for more than 160 minutes of the previous day and 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.

The Kings have come out of the All-Star break on fire, recording five straight wins. They'll also play on no rest after defeating the Clippers 128-127 at home last night, but playing at home again will of course be an advantage and the Kings are 13-5 ATS in their last 18 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game.

The Magic took a 139-117 beating at Milwaukee in their last game. The under is 13-3 in Magic's last 16 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points and 4-0 in their last 4 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game. Under is 34-16-1 in Hornets last 51 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400 and 10-1 in their last 11 when their opponent allows 100 points or more in their previous game.

8* PLAY ON UNDER. 

10* CLIPPERS/WARRIORS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

This looks like a good spot to back the Clippers to bounce back from three consecutive losses SU and ATS. For the season, the Clippers are 8-1 SU and 7-2 ATS as road favorites giving five points or fewer. The Warriors are in a potential flat spot after recording three straight wins SU and ATS since the All-Star break. 

10* PLAY ON LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS. 

This looks like a good spot to back the Celtics to bounce back from a 109-94 loss in New York. They had gone 7-1 SU and ATS over their previous eight games and the Celtics are 14-3 ATS in their last 17 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. The Cavs are coming off a blowout win over Toronto but they'll face a much tougher team here.

8* PLAY ON BOSTON CELTICS.

This looks like a great spot to back the Sixers to bounce back from a pair of losses. It's also a revenge spot as they took a 101-99 home loss to Miami a couple of nights ago.

Heat are 5-20-1 ATS in their last 26 games following an ATS win. Heat are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games overall. 76ers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.

Detroit win 118-112 with a closing total of 240.5 when the teams last played each other on February 3. I think this total is way too high.

MIKE'S 10* KINGS/THUNDER NBA GAME OF THE WEEK MAX BET

The Sacramento Kings have come out of the All-Star break on fire, scoring 300+ points over two games. The Thunder are coming off a pair of losses at Utah and Phoenix, and I'm not sure if returning home will give them big enough of a boost against a Kings team that is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record and 12-5 ATS in their last 17 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game. Additionally, the Kings are 9-3 ATS in the last 12 meetings in Oklahoma City.

The Thunder are 25-9-1 ATS in their last 35 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.

Both teams rank in the top 5 for points scored per game, but this is a huge number, especially considering that the teams are likely to be rusty from the nine-day break. 

Under is 9-1 in Thunder last 10 vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Under is 16-5 in Jazz last 21 vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

I expect the Hawks to step up big time on the defensive end here after giving up 144 points to the Hornets in their last game. That was the only game in the Hawks last seven games that went over the number we are getting here. 

10* PLAY ON UNDER. 

10* MAGIC/RAPTORS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

This looks like a good spot to fade the Magic who are coming off an upset win at Chicago Monday night. Orlando is 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games playing on 0 days rest and 2-7 ATS in the last 9 matchups with the Raptors in Toronto.

The Raptors are 4-1 SU in their last game but failed to impress in a 119-118 win against Detroit on Sunday, but I expect a big game here. 

This will be the Raptors fourth straight home game. They are 9-2 SU and 7-4 ATS since the start of last season in their fourth straight game at Scotiabank Arena. Raptors are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400.

MAVS/KINGS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

We won with the Mavs against the Kings Friday night, and I like them to win again here in the second leg of the back-to-back set. This was yesterday's analysis, and the same points are still valid: 

"The Mavs are only 11-17 SU away from home on the season, but they are coming off back-to-back road wins at Utah and LA Clippers. The Mavericks are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. The Kings return home from a seven-game road trip and they are 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record."

I'm not too concerned about the revenge factor and I'm happy to back Dallas again.

The Pacers have lost seven of their last eight games and this looks like a tough spot as they'll be playing the second game of a back-to-back situation after taking a 117-104 loss to Phoenix last night. The Wizards have a big rest advantage as they've had two days off since their win over Charlotte Wednesday night.

The Jazz are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up loss and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. The Raptors are coming off a 112-98 win over the Spurs but they are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points.

Sure, they'll be playing on two days rest but note that the Hawks are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 2 days rest. I have no trends favoring the Pels, but they are desperate for wins.

The Nets meanwhile are coming off a disappointing 130-122 home loss to Detroit.
