Coming later

I had the Mavs in game 1 and they should have covered and honestly they looked like the better team here.  Porzingis got ejected in the 3rd and they still hung tough.  I think that speaks volumes to this team.  Also I heard was how good the Clippers defense can be.  Luka drops 40 on them without his 2nd best player.  Mavs are a another live dog tonight

I was on the. Sixers in game 1 and they should have covered and even had chances to sneak one out.  The big thing now is that Hayward is out for Boston and to me that is huge.  It puts a ton more on Tatum and Brown's shoulders.  The Sixers know the importance here of game 2 I wouldn't be shocked if they won this outright

Let’s bounce back here with the Magic first out today.  Is Orlando going to win a game this series?  Probably not but getting 12.5 is a ton of points.  The Magic have some retesting young pieces here even without Isaac.  Here is also another case where everyone loves the Bucks and will have no problem laying the points.  With 4 favorites yesterday you need to be careful. I like the Magic

We all know everyone loves the Clippers rightfully so.  If you are watching hockey playoffs we have seen some weird things happen in series and I think the NBA will be the same way.  There is no advantage plain and simple so I think you have to be careful laying points in the playoffs.  This Mavs team is a scary one as they have a ton of firepower lead by Luka.  I keep hearing Clippers will easily make the Finals, I think this series is going to be a tough one for them.

I love this Celtics team and actually think they pose the biggest threat to the Bucks in Eastern Conference but this is a lot of points here for them to be laying.  Yes, I know Simmons is out for Philly but he's overrated in my eyes and I like the way the ball moves better for the Sixers.  They have a huge advantage down as well.  I think this line and the general public are overreacting here to Simmons being out.  I see this series being extremely close the whole way

The Nets have been quite the surprise honestly as literally no one expected them to win more than 2 if not 1 game during the bubble.  Well they are 5-2 since the restart with literally no one playing.  Getting double digits you have to ride them here.  I have back Portland here recently in several wins but now is the time to back off as I think they know they can win this game not going all out 

Had a winner the other night with Portland over the Sixers.  Let's ride them again tonight as they are showing me a lot trying to get the final spot.  They are 4-2 in the bubble with the two losses both being very close to Boston and Clippers both very good teams.  Mavs are locked into a spot now with their most recent win.  Give me the desperate Trailblazers. 

I’m actually quite surprised this line is this high.  The Lakers are 2-4 since the restart and why wouldn’t they be.  They have the 1 seed locked up.  Denver on the other hand is playing for the 2nd seed which they would love to have to avoid the Lakers in the second round.  Nuggets effort will be here tonight

Blazers let one slip away last night against the Clippers.  I think they bounce back here with a big effort and that’s because they are fighting for the playoffs.  They simply can’t afford to lose this game tonight.  Sixers I don’t see them have much interest here

I think the wrong team is favored here in this game.  Both of these teams are undefeated and have covered every game.  I just think the Suns are riding high here coming of wins against Dallas and Clippers.  No one is giving them a shot but they legit have a chance for the final spot.  I like the way the Suns are trending here and will take the points with them

I had the Rockets in a winner last game as they were a dog and beat the Bucks straight up.  I just wonder how much that took out of them.  This game also means so much more to the Blazers as they are fighting for the playoffs here.  We get a max effort here and I think an outright win

I'm going to take the Hear here in this game.  I know they played yesterday in a battle and lost.  They have such a hard schedule here during this re start that I am looking to back them early as opposed to later on.  Boston is in the 3 spot and the Heat are in the 4 and Miami if nay hopes of passing them needs this win and I think that's the motivation edge here tonight

Bucks simply have zero motivation here as they have the 1 seed locked up.  Rockets are still playing for something and I think playing with a chip a no one considers them a contender in the West.  They are dangerous and I like them here in this spot

Portland answered the call in their first game and I always love a desperate team especially when a dog.  They are hungry to make the playoffs and Celtics coming off a tough loss to the Bucks

The Bucks are this heavily priced on a neutral court?  This is a big time overreaction here.  I also question how much interest the Bucks have here since they have the 1 seed wrapped up.  Celtics on the other hand can grab the 2 seed or even drop to 4.  So this means a lot to them.  Bucks missing a couple players with Covid.  I like Boston quite a bit here tonight

I'm actually surprised this isn't higher.  Portland if they want any shot at the playoffs they have to win this game and they know that.  I think given the fact we get a big time effort here from there.  They are also healthy for the first time in forever as well.

I'm a sucker here for this game but TCU should be laying more than 1.5. They are just much better here than Kansas St who picked up their first win since Jan 29.  I think the Wildcats have packed it in for the season plain and simple.  

I totally expect this line to go up here.  I really love UNC today and not surprised they are favored.  This team is now a lot healthier and you know from yesterdays game they would love nothing more than to win this ACC Tournament.  Cuse is down this season and I see UNC having no trouble here tonight with a chip on their shoulder.

This is honestly NC St's do or die game here.  I think if they grab the win they lock up an at large bid.  Lose and their going to the NIT.  NC St did handle business both meeting vs Pitt in the season and see no reason why they can't tonight.  

Missed a better number here but still like the Nuggets.  This is a tough road trip here for the Bucks to begin with and now throw in the fact that they are without Giannis.  This is about a tough of spot as you can find for a team.  

I know this isn't ideal to take the Jazz here with their first game back on the road.  I just think this is a tougher game to ask the Raptors as they finish up this 5 game road trip.  They have won 3 straight but only covered 1 of those games.  The Raptors also embarrassed the Jazz in Toronto.

I think Bradley is the play here for the MVC title.  This has been a crazy tournament to say the least but Bradley has been a consistent team this season finishing 3rd in the league.  Each of these teams have split during the regular season, but from what I saw yesterday I just think Bradley is deeper and overall better.  

Let's take Maryland here in this game.  This is a big game for them as they could fall to the 4 seed in the conference tourney.  Also they have lost 3 of their last 4 games so I think they will be really motivated here to go into next week on a high note. 

No choice but to take Xavier here.  This is another team playing for their tournament lives.  They need this win today and I believe they get it done. Butler has been terrible on the road with a 7-6 SU record.  In fact they only have one road win going back to the first part of January.  

This line simply makes zero sense at all.  Texas AM should be favored here in this game.  Let's look at the last their last couple games.  They were only a 4 point dog @ LSU meaning they would be a slight favorite over them @ home and LSU is better than Arkansas.  2 games ago they were -3 over Kentucky.  Clearly something is off here but have to take the Aggies. 

I really think they messed this line up here. Virginia should be a bigger favorite here plain and simple.  They are playing their best ball of the season winning 7 straight games.  Louisville has hit a bump in the road.  They are 3-3 SU their last 6 games but all 3 losses were on the road.  I think this line climbs big time so grab now

Let's grab USC here at this price.  Everyone and I mean everyone is talking about the red hot Bruins which will definitely play into peoples mind here.  USC is playing well right now also covering 7 of their last 8 games.  They play very well at home with a 13-2 home record.  Too much love on the Bruins for me right now

I really like Texas Tech here in this game today.  They are playing for their tournament lives right now as they have had 3 straight losses.  They took Kansas down to the wire @ KU and actually let that one slip away.  I think this is is a great match up here for Tech as well.  They have had all week off after Monday following that tough OT loss @ Baylor. I think they win this outright 

Good spot here to go against Baylor.  They still have a chance to tie for the conference if Kansas losses today but I simply dont see them winning this game tonight.  Baylor has lost 2 fo their last 4 games and could have easily lost a third winning in OT vs Texas Tech.  WVU has slipped up the 2nd half of the season but they are still 13-2 @ home this season.  I think they get a big time win here today.

Kentucky already has the SEC title wrapped up so you do have to question the motivation angle a little bit here.  Florida is starting to play their best ball of the season as they are 5-2 SU with both losses being on the road one @ Kentucky and the other @ hot Tennessee.  They took Kentucky down to the wire in the first meeting and think they rally here and get the so called upset.

I like Tennessee to get the job done here today.  They are playing with a ton of confidence coming off a home win over Florida and then a road win @ Kentucky.  They also have the revenge angle on their side and this is one of those ranked dogs on the road that I love to fade.  Auburn has lost their last 3 road games. 

I really like Indiana here in this spot today.  I think people will make the case for Wisconsin because they have a shot to win the Big Ten believe it or not.  I just Indiana is playing for their tournament lives here and this is simply a must win game.  They have played well going 3-2 their last 5 and one of those losses was by 1 point.  Indiana gets it done on senior day

Late Add

I will roll with Drake here.  Illinois St did recently beat Drake at home but this team away from home has been horrible.  Drake is by far the better team here and will be hungry to bounce back.  I don’t see how Illinois St hangs around

Late Add

I know why this line is low because Long the Rebel PG is out today.  While he is a big part of their hot run here their backup Coleman has plenty of experience.  He actually recorded a triple double this season.  Rebels playing on their home court and playing with confidence let’s take them 

There is no doubt in my mind that the last outing from Rhode Island was the classic look ahead game as they thought they could handle St Louis fairly easily.  The conference title here is over but you know Rhode Island would love nothing more to knock them off here tonight.  

I haven't been a fan of this Nova team all year long.  They are a good team yes but just not the same as we are use to seeing.  Seton Hall is one team I think can win it all and they aren't getting enough credit here for being on their home court.  Does Nova have the revenge, yes they do but I can't pass up this cheap price here with Seton Hall.

This game is a huge game for Indiana as most have them in the tournament but I think its closer than that.  They simply can't afford a loss here.  Indiana should be hungry here coming off back to back losses both on the road.  They already took care of business vs the Gophers and shot the ball terrible that game.  Shouldn't be an issue here tonight.  Also, Minnesota is off back to back heart break losses.

Alright, well Arkansas is out of the tournament as of now but this huge win tonight would really send them in the right direction.  I know things haven't been bright here as of late for them but I do like this spot for them here.  This is senior night here and Arkansas let one slip away @ LSU losing by 2.  I really like Arkansas here to come out on top

Georgia is playing their best ball of the season and you can't ignore them here tonight.  They have won 3 of their last 4 including wins over Auburn and Arkansas.  Florida is in a very tough spot as they are looking forward to their final game this weekend vs Kentucky.  

I will take the bait here with this game.  Temple has lost 3 straight but all 3 were very much winnable as they lost by single digits.  Tulsa is being a little over valued here since they have won 3 straight but all 3 were at home.  The biggest key here is that Temple remembers the loss Tulsa handed them.  Tulsa beat them by 26 and you know Temple want this one

Interesting game and definitely an under the radar game.  Clemson just pulled another huge upset win at home which is no surprise as they have done that this year.  I just don't think they are still that good of a team.  Va Tech is nothing special either but given the spot I believe they are the right side here.

Im actually a little surprised here on this game.  I thought for sure this line would a lot higher like 3 points higher.  Iowa has a sour taste in their mouths if you remember a few weeks back.  Purdue made 11 3's in the first half alone and just routed Iowa.  This is a huge revenge spot here.  Iowa gets it done on senior night

There is zero reason why West Virginia should be favored by this much on the road.  This team is having a collapse for the ages here.  They are just 1-6 SU their last 7.  I know Iowa St isn't anything special but on senior night the crowd will be into it.  WVU also has a huge look ahead game here with Baylor coming to town this weekend.  I wouldn't be shocked if Iowa St pulled the upset 

Let's take the Thunder here in this matchup.  The Thunder have been one of the biggest shocks of the season if not the biggest as this team wasn't pegged as a playoff team.  I think they can give the Clippers all they can handle.  They are 5-1 SU their last 6 games.  Clippers are just an average team on the road with a 16-13 record 

Rutgers needs that one big win here before the tournament starts.  I think they get exactly that tonight.  This team has played great at home with a 17-1 record.  I also think this is a very tough spot for Maryland as they are coming off a tough loss vs Michigan St.  

The Michigan St band wagon is now full again and I think it's time to fade them.  They are coming off their biggest win of the season @ Maryland and now this is a very tough spot for them.  I know others will argue that Sparty has the revenge angle here but lets no overreact to one game.  Penn St will get it done tonight

I think most will think this is a must win for Miss St as they are on the bubble.  However, these two teams just recently met and South Carolina lost by 3.  I love this quick revenge spots.  South Carolina is also a team on the outside looking in but they can play themselves into the mix and I believe they start with a win tonight 

I was against Texas Tech laying 11 vs Texas and was right.  They lost the game outright but now are catching 8?  This is just crazy to have a team laying double digits to nearly catching double digits after one game especially in Power 5, you never see this. Tech has the athletes to match up here this is simply too many points

I like the Heat here tonight as this game woll certainly attract their attention.  They are catching the Bucks in a good spot here on a back to back.  Bucks also had to play harder than expected last night vs the Hornets.  I like the Heat to win SU so put Some on the ML also

This seems like a pretty cheap price here.  I think everyone will remember the Grizzlies last game blowing out the Lakers and take them here.  The Hawks are quietly playing well winning 4 of their last 6 games.  

The Gophers season ended in a flash last game.  They dominated the game vs Maryland leading the whole way but gave it up at the end and Maryland hit a 3 three with hardly any time remaining to win by 1.  Those types of losses are extremely hard to get over.  Wisky coming off a nice road win I think they take care of business 

Raptors have dropped 2 straight and yes I know odds aren’t with them to lose 3 but I really like this Denver team.  First, it’s a hard spot to play out for a team out of conference.  Also the Nuggets are coming off an ugly loss to the Clippers which I believe they bounce back from

One of the classic unranked  teams favored over the ranked team here.  Colorado is already in the tournament right now.  Stanford needs some more work and this is a great spot for them.  They also will want revenge from an earlier loss @ Boulder. 

This is one I am really surprised isn't like 3-4 points higher.  Maryland is no joke and with a win here will pretty much lock up the Big Ten Title.  I think they take care of business against a Michigan St team who isn't as good as they normally are.  They have only covered 1 game in their last 7.  Maryland already recently beat Sparty @ Sparty and it wasn't like they shot lights out that game.  

Alright we have a Grizzlies team here that should be very focused.  They have lost 5 straight now but still hold the 8th spot for now in the playoff race.  They lost all 4 road games their first game back home was a major let down spot.  I think we get a max effort here obviously with the Lakers coming to town.  Lakers only won by 1 in the first meeting @ Memphis

I think the Wolfpack have a great shot at winning this game outright and would put some on the ML here.  This may seem crazy but all the motivation for the perfect for SDSU is gone now.  This game literally means nothing to them.  While I think Nevada still has a very outside shot of the tournament or at least they believe that.  Nevada has won 6 straight games as well playing their best ball of the season

I'm pretty surprised by this line here actually.  UNI has already at locked up a share of the conference title and sure you can make the case they want this one which they do, but Drake would love nothing more to play spoiler to their in state rival.  Drake really let one slip away at UNI the first meeting so the revenge is a big angle here

I will take a stab here with Virginia.  The Cavs are starting to gel here with 5 straight wins and Duke is now slipping a little bit.  I know Duke is very good but honestly to me they dont pass the eye test. I think Virginia is live here tonight

This is a perfect game for WVU to take out some frustration.  The schedule stretch here for Oklahoma has been very tough and that is a large part of their struggles.  They will be hungry and pissed for a nice revenge spot here.  The Sooners only have one cover their last last 6 road games and the 1 was by half a point.  I think WVU blows them out today

Huge game here for Marquette.  This is actually their final home game and you know Howard will be looking to light it up as the best team in the league comes to town.  Marquette snapped their 3 game losing skid last time out.  I also think Seton Hall is in a tough spot here as they have Nova on a look ahead that can likely decide the conference champion.

This will no doubt be a public play but I have to take FSU here.  This team is quietly playing for a chance at a 1 seed and aren't being talked about enough.  They have big time length and great athletes.  Florida St was favored by 2 @ Virginia who is a lot better than this Clemson team.  I dont see this being a let down spot at all for FSU

Let's take Tennessee here.  The Vols are on the outside looking in here for the big dance but a win here would really move them in the right direction.  I also think this is a major let down spot for Florida coming off that big blowout win over LSU.

Plug your nose here I know.  Evansville hasn't won conference game but I believe today is the day and this team knows that this game is a winnable one.  I believe they will play extremely hard here given the situation.  Something has to give here as well as Illinois St hasn't won a road game all season

I really like Iowa here tomorrow against Purdue.  Iowa has been great at home all season and now will be back to full strength with CJ Fredrick back in the starting lineup.  This is clearly a huge game and Iowa wants revenge from an OT loss @ Penn St earlier

Texas is quietly playing with some restored confidence here so we will ride them.  I had them last game vs West Virginia as they pulled the upset.  Even though this is a in state rivalry game, I think it means more to Texas right now who are still playing for the NCAA Tournament.  Tech has their two biggest games of the season on deck vs Baylor and Kansas.  I think Texas can keep this within single digits given their recent play. 

Huge game here tonight with USC.  I think this line drops some actually so grab it now.  USC is a team big time on the bubble.  They have 3 games left all home games so they know they need a couple wins.  With that we know the effort will be there.  AZ is coming off a loss but I don’t trust this team at all 

I actually thought this would be a little higher.  I know this is a major let down spot as the Rebels took down undefeated SDSU and I had them in that game.  Rebels will be out for revenge here in the final home game of the season.  They lost by 7 at Boise and UNLV is playing really well right now.  

Big time game here in the SEC tonight.  Florida is in the tournament right now but a loss here wold really hurt them and move them closer to that bubble.  However, I think Florida responds here with a big effort.  They lost by 2 earlier @ LSU.  LSU on the road is nothing special.  They are coming off a road win @ South Carolina but prior to that had 3 straight road losses.  

Arkansas got off the losing skid last game with a double digit win and cover vs Missouri.  I think they will want big time payback here as they lost by over 20 @ Tennessee.  Arkansas is fighting for the tournament and simply can't afford a slip up here in this game.  

I think we see Pitt go off favored here by a few points so grab the best number you can here.  Neither team is playing very well at all.  This is a rivalry game here and Pitt lost the first meeting so I this one should have their attention.  

Im banking on a big effort here from South Carolina coming off back to back losses.  They still believe they have a shot at the tournament here so I think Martin will have them ready tonight.  I don't trust Georgia at all off back to back wins here.  SC routed them the first go around and shouldn't be any different here tonight.  

I have to take the Sooners here who are one of those bubble teams.  They know that and they know the meaning of this game tonight.  A win here IMO wold really give them the upper hand come selection time.  They are on a 3 game skid but you can make a case for all 3 as losing to Baylor and Kansas isn't surprising and then their rival on the road in Oklahoma St.  Oklahoma is live here tonight and believe they get the upset.

I think we see this line continue to go up here.  Miss St has this one circled as they they throttled in the first meeting by 21 @ Bama.  Miss St has a great home court where they are 12-2 on the year.  I also think we are getting a low price here because they have only covered once in the last 6 games.  

That was about as bad of outing as you could have asked for by Iowa St last game.  They were 5 points dogs vs Texas Tech and lost by 30.  They have enough pride here to bounce back.  This is also a game they know they can win.  Plus we are getting the perfect storm here with TCU coming off a huge win over West Virginia and really not caring about this game with Baylor on deck

Sneaky game here tonight for Kentucky.  Thats why we will be taking the Aggies.  Aggies have won 3 straight and 4 of their last 6 games.  Kentucky is in a big time look ahead spot here with Auburn coming to town this weekend setting up for a gamely match up.  I like the way the Aggies are trending so lets ride the hot hand here and take the points 

Let's take a stab here with Texas.  The reason being they need a big time win on their resume.  They clearly haven't thrown I the towel yet as they put forth a great effort @ Kansas St over the weekend.  WVU right now is in trouble, as they have lost 4 of their last 5 games.  2 of them are good losses but @ Oklahoma and @ TCU is not.  Texas was flat out embarrassed in the first meeting and I think they respond with a big effort

Really love the Buckeyes here today.  Maryland is first in the Big Ten but I really like the spot against them here.  Buckeyes are 13-2 at home and we all kno here the betting public will be all over Maryland.  

DePaul has only one conference win right now, but I think they snag another one here today.  G Town is just so banged up right now I think its hard for them to mustard out this one.  

The Rebels gave the Aztecs all they could handle in the first meeting and I think they will put up another fight here.  Yes, SDSU is a very good team but I think the Rebels match up well with them and can create some problems.  I just have a hard time seeing them get routed.

Georgia is favored here on the road more than what they were @ home.  Always in those cases I have to look at the home team especially.  Georgia is coming off a huge emotional win which is setting up for a big let down.  

Illinois St is just terrible and I have to take Drake here.  Illinois St has just won 1 games in their last 6 here.  Drake won by double digits in the first meeting despite Illinois St hitting 13 threes.  

Have to take Florida St here given the circumstances.  I had NC St their last game as they beat down Duke and won by 22.  That is a very tall task for them to follow that performance up here with another quality team in Florida St.  Seminoles won't be looking past the Wolfpack here

We are gonna take the Cowboys here in this game.  This is obviously a rivalry game and I think the Pokes get revenge here.  They have won 3 of their last 5 and covered 4 of those.  Oklahoma will be up for this but I question how much is left in the tank with games against Baylor and Kansas previously.  

I think the line is telling a story here in this game.  Kansas St has had a really bad year, but Texas hasn't had much better given the talent.  K St will definitely feel like this is a game they can win.Texas has zero interest in this game today while I think K St knows they can handle business. 

This is a line I think will go up more and more so grab it now.  Michigan is playing their best ball right now which is playing into this line.  I also think Purdue needs another big time win to get themselves into the dance.  Michigan is playing back to back road games here which is always difficult.  Purdue has also dropped 3 straight so I think the must win here plays into effect

I just can't believe this line here.  Yes, Dayton is a very good team we all know that and they are a household name now.  Duquesne though is no slouch, these guys can play.  They took Dayton down to the final minute in the first meeting losing by only 4.  Duquesne has players and this number is simply to high

I thought this line would open higher which is a little scary but there is no doubt right now who from top to bottom is the best team and that is Baylor.  The Big 12 as a whole this season is down big time, with these two teams being the best.  Baylor already got the best of Kansas @ KU.  I see zero reason why they dont control this one also 

Auburn needs to put a beat down and I believe they found their victim here.  Auburn off back to back ugly road losses.  Their most recent @ Georgia was just horrible shooting 31% from the field.  They haven't covered 5 straight but I think have no problem here today with a bad Tennessee team

The Thunder have been one of the biggest surprises of the season as no one had them pegged fighting for the playoffs.  I like them here tonight to continue playing well.  Denver is a team they are chasing so they will want this one. 

The T Wolves you could make the case for that they are one of the most disappointing teams in the league.  I definitely think with the trade for Russell though we see them re engerized here.  Boston is clearly a public team.  While I think they win, I also think the T Wolves will fight in this game

Interesting game here tonight.  No one will want much to do with the Magic here but they had a couple wins before All Star Break.  Yes, I know the Mavs have been lights out on the road but that simply won’t continue in the 2nd half.  Magic are better than .500 @ home.  I think they are live for an upset

Dont mind even taking ASU on the ML here.  One of the hottest teams right now in the PAC 12.  They have won 5 straight and 7 of their last 8.  They are trying to sneak into the tournament talk here and a win tonight would really leap frog them here.  Oregon is just 1-3 SU their last 4 road games and the only victory was by 3 points. 

This line does scare me a little since it actually should be around 4-5.  Part of the reason is because of the injuries as well right now for the Hawkeyes.  I just think this team is tough and that was shown last game ending it on a 11-0 @ Minnesota to snatch a win.  Buckeyes are playing well right now but I think they are looking ahead here to top 10 Maryland coming to town this weekend 

UConn is in a bad spot here tonight.  They have been riding high here as of late but this is a major let down spot.  They are off 3 straight emotional games facing Cincy SMU and Memphis.  I doubt the interest level here tonight @ Temple will be like those games.  Temple coming off an ugly performance vs Nova and expect them to bounce back here.  Also Temple was routed @ UConn in the first meeting 

This is big rivalry game here for NC St.  They are for sure a tough team to figure out but we dont need them to win here.  Getting 7 here in this game is simply too many.  Yes, Duke is a very good team we all know that.  They have only covered 1 spread in their last 5 road games and that came down to the final 30 seconds.  I think NC St is actually live here tonight 

This is just an odd game here.  Va tech got off the losing streak last game and Miami is off back to back wins but both at home against bad teams.  At the end of January Va Tech was favored by more @ Miami here and clearly this is a major discount here.  Have to Hokies based on that
