I like the Pistons here as they now have something to build off with a good win @ Miami. This Pacers team is simply one you cant trust on the road at all this season. They are just 4-13 SU & ATS on the road. With the Pacers winning and covering their last two games @ home it only adds to the value here with the Pistons.

I like the Bucks here tonight as I believe they are playing very good basketball. The betting public will likely be all over the Thunder and especially since they are coming off a blowout win over the Clippers. If you throw out the two losses to the Cavs on back to backs for the Bucks they are 5-2 their last 7. The Thunder are 5-1 ATS their L6 which is having them over valued and they have also benefited from playing teams with key injuries

The betting public will be all over the Cavs here, but I think the value is with the Hornets who are playing very well as of late. They have won 5 of 6 and want revenge of two losses to the Cavs both at Cleveland from earlier in the year. I'm not sure how much interest the Cavs will have here in this game. Also Kyrie isn't 100% either even though it looks like he is going to play. Hornets are a sneaky good team

This line has dropped from the opener, but in no way can I back the Pistons here. Their only win in the last 7 games was against the Cavs as they rested all the key players. The Hawks are starting to play a little better and I am ready to jump back on board with them. Also the best angle for me here is that the Pistons embarrassed the Hawks winning by over 30 @ Atlanta at the beginning of the month. Hawks will want revenge here no doubt about it

Now is the time to buy on the T Wolves. This team has been frustrating this year to figure out, but they are playing their best basketball right now. They have covered 7 of their last 9 games. During that stretch they have had 3 SU losses by 4 points or less. The Bucks are coming off a blowout win over the train wreck Pistons so I'm not putting much stock into that.

The Pacers are in a primed bounce back spot here against the Bulls tonight. They just lost @ Chicago a few days ago and this will be the last time they play in the year. The home team has covered every game so far this season. Pacers play very well @ home with a 11-5 record and the Bulls struggle on the road with a 6-10 record. Pacers have lost 4 a in row, but I expect a huge effort here tonight.

I'm going to lay the the short number here with the Grizzlies as I expect them to respond with a big effort tonight after dropping back to back road games. The Thunder are being overvalued due to their 4 game winning streak and covering 5 of 6 games. The Thunder are just 2 games SU above .500 on the road and this is a very good home team.

I will take the Raptors here as I think this is a tough spot for the Warriors. They are coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Cavs on Christmas day.

Wizards are on fire right now and the books haven't adjusted much for them. Indiana is one of the worst road teams in the NBA with a 4-12 SU record. Wizards are another team that realyl struggles on the road, but at home it's a different story with a record of 11-6. The Wizards will also want revenge from an earlier loss this season just by 2 @ Indiana.

The betting public will be all over the Thunder here. I just doubt they have much interest at all coming of their Christmas day game. The Thunder were just 5.5 point favorties @ home vs the Heat earlier which suggests this line should be closer to a PK @ Miami. Heat have Winslow back should be getting Ellington back as well.

I'm willing to lay the short price with the Pelicans here as I believe the Mavs are being way over valued here with due to them winning 3 of their last 4 while 2 were big road upset wins.

This is a different Pelicans team when healthy plus the Mavs will be without PG Barea

Clearly the line tells the story here with the Piston being favorites over the Cavs. Simple reason for that is the Cavs are resting players after yesterday. That was a huge win for them coming back from being down 14 in the 4th. They have no interest in playing @ Detroit here. The Pistons will be the motivated team to get back on track. I see a big effort from them tonight given this situation.

The Hawks are still a mess right now and even though I like this team better without Howard, he is a key guy missing when facing a big team like the Nuggets.

This Celtics team burned me the other night with a lucky comeback win in OT @ Memphis. The Pacers have a big break following this game so you can expect a huge effort here.

NBA TOP PLAY! I love the Clippers here in tonight's game as this will be a playoff type of setting. The Warriors are coming off two huge blowouts, but I'm not buying much stock into those performances. The Clippers just won @ the Cavs as point dogs and now are 4.5 underdogs @ home? The Clippers have had two days rest as well which is very important. You know Doc will have this team ready and I see the Clippers winning outright

I see them coming out flat here tonight as they return home for their first home game after a 5 game road trip. Don't let Thomas being out bother you others will step up.

Another great spot here for the Sixers as the Magic started off their road trip with a huge upset win over the Spurs and played a very tough game last night @ Memphis but came up 1 basket short. Now they travel to play Philly where they won't have much interest here. Another key thing worth noting is that the Sixers have had extra time off as they previous game was cancelled.

I am always a little worried about a line that begs for it. I also don't think the markets have adjusted enough right now for the Thunder.

The Knicks right now are red hot winning 5 of 7 and playing their best basketball @ home going 7-2 on the season with wins in a row. That is why this line makes me wonder a hair, but I'm on it.
