This line will jump during the day.  We should be getting a pissed of Pistons team here after losing back to back games vs the Hornets.  Pistons are much better than they have been playing so far and I would imagine now healthy they have a fire under them.  The Spurs are down and that is no surprise.  They are coming off a huge effort in beating the Clippers and Alridge is out here today as well

I like the home and home game situations.  The Pelicans lost a hard fought game @ the Thunder last time out by only 4.  They shot horrible from the outside though in 28% from three.  You have to expect that to turn around here on their home court.  

This is clearly a big time game but I think it means more for the Pelicans because of the trade situation that had happened with Davis.  I think the former Lakers will definitely play with a chip on their shoulder here.  The Lakers were just favored by less @ Spurs who are a worse team and the Pelicans.  

Good spot here for the Rockets too re group.  They have lost 3 straight and were just ran of their own court vs the Mavs.  Now, they have had a couple days off and I think will be ready here.  Heat are getting a ton of respect as they are the best ATS team so far.  Jimmy looks like he's out tonight as well

With what the Pacers are doing without Oladipo it has been very impressive.  This line is telling you now that Gobert is going to be out for the game for Utah.  Pacers have been great at home with a 7-2 record while the Jazz have struggled just 3-5 SU

I definitely think the betting public will be all over the Rockets here in this game.  The Clippers have failed to cover 4 of their last 5 and the steam from the beginning of the season has worn off on them as a public team.  Houston already handed them a loss and Clippers get revenge tonight

I had the Nuggets as my top play winner last game vs the Rockets and will back them again here in this spot.  The Celtics are on a long road trip here playing their 5th straight and coming off a tough OT loss @ Clippers.  I'm a big fan of this Nuggets team and think they get it done tonight against a tired squad 

I always like to take there home team here in the dog role when they are playing the 2nd of a home and home situation.  The Thunder took them too the wire the other night and will be motivated to come away with a win.  Clearly the Lakers are getting tons of love because of their hot start. Thunder are worth a shot here

This seems like a pretty cheap price here to back the Suns considering they were just favored by 2.5 to 3 over the Celtics.  Yes, the Pelicans are playing better after a slow start to the season but this is too much respect here.  I know Rubio is doubtful and that is why we are getting a cheaper price, but I think the Suns respond here as they are a very much improved team

So we know the Rocket are the hottest team in the league right now and the betting public will love them catching points tonight.  This line will also go up during the day so grab it now.  The Nuggets though have won 6 of their last 7 games and are still one of the top teams in the West, so this line shouldn't surprise anyone.  I love the Nuggets here tonight 

This is just crazy here that the Bucks are favored by this much.  Yes, we know they are a good team but suggesting they would be -17 @ home is nuts.  This Hawks team had a rough road trip for sure, but they will bring it tonight at home and I'm not sure how interested the Bucks will be here as they have had a lot of travel themselves 

Kyrie is out here in this game again, as he was out last game.  I think we get a really good effort here from the Nets as they are coming off an ugly ugly home loss to the Pacers.  The Hornets have over achieved big time so far and I think we see them come down to earth here tonight

Let's take the vastly improved Suns here tonight.  The Celtics just lost their 2nd game of the season last night in a big effort @ Sacramento.  I like the rested Suns here with 3 days off and now the Celtics playing their 3rd game in 4 days with travel.  The line is clearly indicating this as well

I had the Bulls last week 2 Milwaukee and they really played them tough losing by 9 but the Bulls lead a lot of that game.  I always like these quick revenge games here as the betting public will still side with the Bucks.  I wouldn't be shocked if the Bulls won outright

I missed the better number here but still like the Knicks in this spot.  They definitely have this game circled here as a big time revenge spot from more than a week ago where the Cavs destroyed them @ the Knicks. 

I like the Mavs here tonight to get one a nice big win.  This will be the Raptors 5th straight road here  and its already been a winning road trip for them and this is a flat spot no doubt.  Mavs are just 1-3 Cus their last 4 but I think we get a good effort here following an ugly loss to the Knicks.

The Rockets have been hot there is no denying that, but now they have some injuries that are making them pretty shorthanded in this game and I think the T Wolves come out on top.  Minnesota wasn't thought of to be a playoff team in the West, but so far they are playing well and I think can handle the Rockets in this spot

Let's take the Pelicans here as this line is inflated with the Heat.  I had the Pelicans last game in a winner over the Clippers and think they can pull the upset here again.  Both teams are battling injuries but Ingram returns for New Orleans and Butler is still questionable.  

I’m going to roll with the Magic here tonight.  This tea is much better than they have performed so far this season.  I like the way it’s going now coming off a nice win over the Sixers.  We all know this isn’t the Spurs team we are a custom to seeing anymore.  Let’s take the Magic here

I like the Bulls here quite a bit tonight.  This team is going to be a sneaky one all season long.  I just think this is a great spot here to back them with the Bucks coming back home for their first game after a long road trip.  Throw in the fact that the Bucks are missing Middleton, I think the Bulls really make this game interesting.  

I like the Pelicans here tonight.  The Clippers have some question marks here and I am willing to take the chance.  We all know that Kawhi and his resting situation which could come into play here as he played last night @ Houston.  This line just seems too high with so much out in the air for this game.

I think most will run to grab the Clippers here as Paul George is going to be making his debut.  Rockets with Harden and Westbrook have managed pretty well after a slower start. The Rockets will be ready for this battle here.  I think they make a statement here tonight 

I will take the points here with the Magic in this game.  The back to back thing here is huge for Philly as we know Embiid doesn't and can't play those.  Even if he does he isn't 100%.  Sixers 3 losses this season have all been on the road.  Magic have had two days rest so the effort level is definitely on their side.

I like the revenge game here with the Bulls who lost as a 2 point favorite at the Knicks not that long ago.  The Bulls remember that ugly 4th quarter performance blowing a second half 18 point lead.  I think we get a pretty motivated team here tonight and will the points with them

Let's grab the ML here SU with the Thunder.  Yes, the Pacers are hot but the books are flat out begging for you to take them.  I think the Thunder are the right side here as the Pacers still have many injuries.  Turner and Lamb are questionable.  I like the spot here for the Thunder to sneak out a victory

Not sure why such the big move here on the Bucks but I will take the Jazz here.  I also think the Jazz won't be a public team here because they have only covered 1 game in their last 5.  3rd straight road game and good spot to go against the Bucks

Let's go with the Pelicans here tonight to get that revenge from the 1st game of the season.  The Pelicans blew that game in OT and should have won outright.  I like the revenge here and the Raptors are a little overrated right now

This is a weird one here tonight.  This will be the 3rd meeting already between these two teams and the Pistons have won both games.  I think the Pacers here play with some extra energy and blow the Pistons out fairly easily.

This line now is getting a little out hand with Kawhi being out for this game.  The Bucks wouldn’t be favored by double digits if this game was in Milwaukee and that is what they are saying here with this line.  Big over reaction here plus without Kawhi @ Utah the line was 6 

I’m going to back the Bulls here aftee both teams played last night and the Hawks pulled a upset

over the Spurs.  The Bulls played the Lakers tough last night.  Also they are begging you to take Atlanta here but the Bulls have better talent and depth right now. 

 I like the Nuggets here to get it done tonight.  The Heat are getting a little too much for love for their start now.  Denver is one of the better teams in the West and should be able to handle their business here.  

Great spot to back the Blazers here tonight.  Sixers have played two road games and shouldn't have won at Atlanta and snuck by Detroit.  This Portland team is no joke and especially on their home floor.  The difference will be the outside shooting here.

The Wizards have lost a couple heart breakers here and I think they answer the bell here tonight.  They are in a good spot here with Towns being out from suspension.  Wizards are just 1-3 but have had several close losses.  I like this spot here for them

I was all over the Jazz last night vs the Clippers as they won and covered easily.  Kawhi was a late scratch but is now playing tonight and the Clippers are in a good bounce back spot even though they played last night.  The Spurs have been fairly lucky so far winning 3 close games.  I like the Clippers in an easy winner here

Alright were going back to the Pelicans here tonight as they are still searching for their first win of the season.  I actually think it comes tonight.  The Pelicans will be motivated following that ugly loss to the Warriors where they got off to a terrible start.  The Nuggest are playing their 3rd game in 4 days here.  I just think with the Pelicans having two road games looming we get max effort here

The verdict is still out on the Clippers right now.  I think this Jazz team is a force to messed with in the Western Conference.  I also think the betting public will want nothing to do with the Jazz as they have only covered 1 game so far.  Also the Clippers with who they have and what they have done the betting public loves them.  Jazz grab an easy win

The Thunder as we all know will be taking a step back this season but they still have some good pieces.  I think since they are 1-3 SU most will write them off here against a better known Portland team who has the bigger names now.  Portland is playing their 4th straight road game.  The Thunder have been very competitive and I believe they get the W here.

I think the wrong team is favored here in this game.  I don't think the Bucks can repeat the run they had last year as they were a surprise team for how good they did.  The win at Houston does nothing for me as the Rockets are still trying to figure things out.  I love this Celtics team and they match up well.  I think they snag the victory

Are the Cavs a good team,  of course not but they are playing well so far.   They have covered both games and are 1-1 SU. Bucks are clearly a public team and this line is inflated.  I think the Bucks are looking ahead to the Celtics on Wednesday 

This Warriors team clearly has some issues here depth is pretty bad.  They are struggling big time on defense here and playing a back to back I think they fall short again.  Pelicans are hungry for their first win and I think they snag it tonight easily

This Hawks team is young and exciting.  I actually believe they will make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference this year.  Sixers could be without Embiid here.  I also think the Hawks are better than the Pistons and the Hawks are catching more points at home than the Pistons were against the Sixers.  Wouldn’t be shocked for the upset

Let's not hammer the Lakers too hard for their first game against the Clippers.  Clearly the Clippers are the best team in the league and I feel comfortable saying that after 2 games considering they are missing their 2nd best player.   While the Lakers have some injury issues I think they put on a show here tonight.  I do love this Jazz team going forward but given the spot I will take the Lake Show

I had the Pelicans in their first game @ the Raptors and they should have won SU but lost in OT and in fact didn't cover the game even though they were getting 7.  With what Luka and Porzingis did in their first game I think the betting public will love some Mavs tonight.  I think this line goes up throughout the day 

First top p[lay of the NBA season here. Boston really gagged away the 4th quarter against the Sixers and think they bounce back here.  This line is extremely short here given how much the Raptores have lost.  Also they were very lucky to even beat the Pelicans who were short Zion.  Kemba played horrible and I don't think he does that again.  

Let's take the Warriors here for their home opener.  We all know the betting public will be all over the Clippers here following their win over the Lakers.  I know the Warriors have some injuries with Klay but I still think people are under valuing this Golden St team.  Since Durant has left everyone has wrote them off.  Warriors big effort here tonight 

I will take the Suns here to win outright tonight.  I know the Kings are on everyone's list to watch out for and they should be.  I think this Suns team will be a very tough out this season.  I also like the addition of Rubio for the fact that it helps out with Booker a lot.  Suns win the home opener 

I have to take the Knicks here.  They are already forecasting them to be a terrible team.  Could they end up being a bottom feeder again, of course.  But the thing is this early in the season we know these teams will fight and be hungry.  The Spurs are no longer a top 5 team in the West and quite frankly shouldn't be laying this many out of the gate

I'm going to take the Celtics here.  I actually love the addition of Kemba here and its because of the young youth.  Kyrie caused problems with these young guys last year in Tatum and Brown.  Kemba has brought them together and I think the Celtics have a loaded team even though Horford is gone as well.  Redick is a lot bigger loss than what most realize for the Sixers.  

This is just way too high here for the Raptors to be laying.  They will have an emotional type of game celebrating the Championship from last season.  We all know the Raptors will be taking a step backwards this season with the loss of Kawhi.  Yes, Zion is out for the game, but the Pelicans have a lot of young pieces I like and I definitely think they can hang in this game.  

I love the Warriors here tonight.  Yes, Durant is out, but people are forgetting that he went down in the 1st quarter last game.  That was a damn impressive performance for them to hang on like they did.  This series is going 7 games no doubt in my mind.  I think the Warriors actually make a big statement tonight.

Obviously Durant is a huge question mark here.  I just think the Warriors will show up here tonight.  Their role players are beyond due for a respectable game and now in a do or die situation I think they respond big time.  Klay and Curry each get it going and force game 6

I really love the Warriors here tonight.  There is no doubt the betting public will be all over the Raptors here given last game.  The warriors will figure out even with the guys out tonight.  Curry will put the team on his shoulders here and lead them to a victory 

I had the Warriors in a winner last game and will back them again here.  When they want to they are still by far the best team in the league.  They also have a huge home court advantage and now the momentumn of the series has totally shifted.  Boogie made a difference back in the lineup as well.  

There are a lot of things here in the Warriors favor.  I was against them in game 1 simply because of the long lay off.  I think no they respond with a big effort.  It’s crazy to think but the Warriors have never been down 0-2 in a series since Kerr has taking over.  They know how the importance of this game and I think they will sneak away with a win

I’m going to roll with the raptors here in game 1.  I think the Raptors get this game here due to the fact the Warriors have had so much time off which is tougher than people realize.  The Raptors match up very well with Durant being out 

I have to take the Raptors here in this game tonight.  Based on what we have seen the last 3 games the Raptors have figured out the Bucks.  Kawahi has been the best player in the playoffs and I think he carries them to a victory here tonight.  I actually think this line goes up

NBA Playoffs Game Of The Year!

I love the Raptors here in this spot.  They have failed to cover in the first two games but actually should have won game 1 outright.  gre spot for a much needed win and I think they get it here.  I bel this series goes 6 or 7 anyways.  Raptors all day here!!

Portla let one slip away last game. Clearly this is a do or die Game here now if they want any hope of winning the series.  I do they respond here and get the job done.  CJ is due for a breakout game now and returning home only helps matter. 

Took the Warriors in game 1 in an easy winner and will do so again tonigh.  I think the no Durant has actually motivated this team to prove how good they actually are.  Sure Portland will play better but they have to shoot lights out which I don’t see happening 

I think the betting public will take Portland here based on what we saw last game.  Warriors have had more rest and also people forget that they are still damn good without Durant in the lineup.  I think the Warriors win game 1 fairly easy tonight 

I just think this Toronto team is better than Philly.  Both teams are actually in a different spot here than they are use to, but there is one player in which this isn't new.  That is Kawahi and I am trusting him to come through tonight. 

Denver is 39-9 at home this season.  I think they get the job done tonight.  They are coming off a game where they shot terrible from the field at 38% and were still in the game.  The only reason Denver lost game 2 at home was because they shot 34% and still only lost by single digits.  When this team comes to play they are just better than Portland and we will see that tonight

I like the Warriors here tonight to bounce back after 2 straight losses on the road.  Honestly both of those games were coin flips in the final couple minutes.  I think Durant and Curry step up big time here with a huge effort and actually win this one fairly easy. 

I just really like this Nuggets team.  They took control of the series last game needing that win and I believe they win again here tonight and cover the short number.  They are one of the best home teams in the league and are simply a bad match up for Portland.  

I loved the Rockets last game and they got it done.  I just think the Warriors get it done as they easily could have last game.  Warriors are just so damn good and I don’t think Houston can match them

Really like the Celtics here to get the job done and tie this game up 2-2.  Milwaukee coming off a game shooting 50% I don’t think that continues.  Boston also off back to back bad shooting games and with what is at stake I think they get it done

Let’s get on the Warriors here tonigh.  I think most believe the Rockets were robbed and they will be out for blodd.  All true but I think that motivates the Warriors as well to really put the hammer down on them and leave no doubt.  

I had the Raptors in game 1 and simply don't trust the Sixers here.  This team hasn't proven anything when it comes to the postseason.  Toronto is a bad matchup for them evidence game 1.  I think the Raptors handle them easy again tonight

I think Nuggets showed their true colo last game and will Win easily again tonight.  The Spurs still get respect because of their name but this team is no good on the road.  Denver one of the best  teams will all the momentum 

The Jazz really let that one slip away last game.  I think they have enough pride to still show up and give effort here.  Crazy how much this line has changed.  Give me the Jazz

Grab

Yes this is a big line and simply because odds makers know they whenever a team goes down 0-2 on the road that you can basically back them blind returning home.  While I didn’t want this high of line I believe it’s telling the story.  Thunder can’t shootnas bad as they have 

Will take my chances here on this number.  Sixers losing to the Hawks helps this line.  Bucks aren’t resting Giannis but are a lot of other players.  Bucks have pretty much locked up the 1st seed no motivation for them here

I know the Nuggets are on a back to back coming off the Warriors last night which isn't ideal but I still like them here as they have. in their mind the recent 1 point loss to the Spurs.  Denver is 31-7 at home this season and the Spurs aren't exactly playing great failing to cover in 6 of their last 7 games.

Wouldn't surprise me here if this line flips to the Nets being favored.  This game means zero to the Raptors as they are locked into the 2 seed in the east.  Sure, they have a chance for the one but the Bucks would have to lose out.  Nets are the 7th spot but only 1 game ahead of the Magic who is currently out of the playoffs.

I really like the Pistons here in this game tonight playing Indiana on a 2nd of a home and home situation.  Pacers have been struggling and coming off a game vs Detroit where they shot 55% is hard to follow.  Also all the motivation is with Detroit fighting for a playoff spot. 

Well the Hornets are interesting here.  They com in off a wild win over the Raptors at the final seconds.  I think that carries momentum here tonigh.  Spurs haven’t been a great road team.  Hornets still fighting for playoffs they need this game

I like the Jazz here tonight to get it done.  They are coming off an ugly loss @ Memphis and should be motivated here.  Utah is in a 3 way tie for the 6th 7th and 8th seed so they need to take care of business on their home floor. The thunder aren't playing that well as they are just 2-6 SU their last 8 games 

These teams are fighting for the 6th and 7th spot in the playoffs.  I think the Nets come away this one.  Yes, the Pistons are hot as we know but since they played yesterday and now have travel I am giving the edge to the home team here.  

Perfect spot here for the Spurs tonight.  They have had 3 days off which is huge considering the Bucks are on a back to back situation.  Milwaukee has the 1 seed locked up and wouldn't be surprised to see Giannis sit here.  I think the Spurs who are so good at home with a 25-7 record are clearly the more motivated team as they are fighting for a playoff berth

I just don't think the Pelicans really care about their season anymore.,  Davis is questionable and probably won't go for them.  While the Hawks aren't winning games to say they are still playing tough covering 3 of their last 4.  I think the Hawks despite being on a back to back show up with the effort here

This is a great spot here to take the Clippers.  Thunder are coming off a big win last night in OT and they probably didn’t even get in until this mornin.  I know the Clippers aren’t exactly trying for for the playoffs but given this spot I really like them 

I think this is a show me game for the Warriors.  They are coming off a very ugly loss to the Celtics at home so their focus will be here tonight.  Throw in the fact that they are only ahead of Denver by 1 game I think this is a great spot
