02-09-21 | Rockets v. Pelicans -5.5 | 101-130 | Win | 100 | 8 h 54 m | Show | |
Houston @ New Orleans 7:35 PM ET Game# 505-506 Play On: New Orleans -5.5 (5*) This will be the Rockets 3rd game in 4 days and they went 0-2 SU&ATS during their previous 2. Those performances coincide with Houston’s loss of center Christian Wood who has averaged an impressive 22.0 points, and 10.0 rebounds per game this season. Houston is coming off an embarrassing 25-point loss at Charlotte (12-13) last night in which they scored an abysmal 7 points in the 4th quarter. Houston will also be without Victor Oladipo (rest) who is averaging 19.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 4.7 assists per game this season. New Orleans is a perfect 3-0 SU&ATS in their last 3 contests and shot 51.1% or better in each of those games. The Pelicans will enter today’s contest playing on 2 days of rest. Bet on New Orleans minus the points for a 5* wager. |

02-07-21 | Kings v. Clippers -8.5 | 113-110 | Loss | -106 | 3 h 51 m | Show | |
Kings @ Clippers 3:05 PM ET Game# 559-560 Play On: Clippers -8.5 (5*) Sacramento has been on a roll of late going 6-1 straight up and 7-0 ATS during their previous 7 games. The Clippers are coming off a home favorite 4-point loss to Boston in their last game. As strange as it might seem to you, I see this as a good situation for the sizable home favorite in this spot. The Clippers have gone 5-0 SU&ATS this season as a favorite of 11.0 or less following a loss in their previous game. The Clippers are also an extremely profitable 7-1 ATS in their last 7 as a favorite of 6.0 or greater. They won all 8 of those contests straight up and did so by an enormous margin of 21.8 points per game. Finally, the Clippers are 10-2 SU&ATS in their last 12 versus Sacramento. Those results against the Kings included 2-0 SU&ATS with victory margins of 38 and 19 points. Bet on the Clippers minus the points for a 5* wager. |

02-06-21 | Nets v. 76ers -4.5 | 108-124 | Win | 100 | 6 h 6 m | Show | |
Nets @ 76ers 8:05 PM ET Game# 537-538 Play On: 76ers -4.5 (5*) The Nets are coming off a controversial home loss to Toronto last night and it all surrounded around Kevin Durant. Durant wasn’t allowed to start the game because of an inconclusive COVID-19 test. A 2nd test was administered and came up negative. However, during the 2nd half action Durant was pulled from that contest and designated under quarantine status stemming from COVID contact tracing protocols. ESPN has reported that Durant didn’t travel with the team to Philadelphia and could possibly miss multiple games. Additionally, since the start of last season, NBA road teams with no rest playing against Philadelphia have gone 0-10 straight up and that includes 0-7 ATS in the last 7. Philadelphia is coming off an embarrassing 121-106 home loss to Portland in their previous. I say embarrassing not only because of the 15-point margin, but because Portland’s starting guards C.J. McCollum and Damien Lillard sat out due to injuries. However, despite that recent defeat, since the start of last season Philadelphia has gone 39-4 straight up at home. Bet on the 76ers minus the points for a 5* wager. |

02-05-21 | Celtics v. Clippers -6.5 | 119-115 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 34 m | Show | |
Celtics @ Clippers 10:05 PM ET Game# 527-528 Play On: Clippers -6.5 (5*) Boston will once again be without 3 key guards tonight. The trio that will be missing are Kemba Walker, Marcus Smart, and impressive rookie Payton Pritchard. That trio has combined to score 35.8 points per game this season. The line has certainly been adjusted as a result. However, and more importantly it lessens Boston’s quality depth considerably. That can’t be ignored when considering the Celtics will be playing in their 3rd game in 4 days. The Clippers come into this contest having won 6 home games in a row. They have also gone 6-0 SU&ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite of 12.5 or less, and there was an enormous winning margin of 25.4 points per game. Bet on the Clippers minus the points for a 5* wager. |

02-05-21 | Jazz v. Hornets +8.5 | 138-121 | Loss | -106 | 6 h 35 m | Show | |
Jazz @ Hornets 8:05 PM ET Game# 513-514 Play On: Hornets +8.5 (5*) Dating back to last season, Charlotte has gone 6-0 ATS during their last 10 games as a home underdog of 5.5-points or greater, and they won straight up on 3 of those occasions. Despite going a red-hot 13-1 in their last 14 games, Utah played last night in Atlanta, and this will also will be their 3rd game in 4 days. Any NBA home underdog facing an opponent coming off a road win by 10 points or greater and has a winning record, resulted in those home underdogs going 45-20 ATS (69.2%) since the 2016-2017 season. Furthermore, those home underdogs went a more than respectable 35-30 straight up in those contests. Bet on the Hornets plus the points for a 5* wager. |

02-04-21 | Nuggets +5.5 v. Lakers | 93-114 | Loss | -113 | 7 h 40 m | Show | |
Nuggets @ Lakers 10:05 PM ET Game# 509-510 Play On: Nuggets +5.5 (5*) The Lakers are coming off a grueling 7-game in 12-day road trip and won 5 of those 7 contests. My experience has led me to fade NBA home favorites coming off a successful road trip of 5 games or more. That’s especially the case if they are facing a quality opponent like the Denver Nuggets. The Lakers are also just 2-3 straight up and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 at home. Denver will enter tonight’s game with 3-days of rest since defeating Utah in their previous outing. That Denver victory ended a Utah 11-game winning streak. That makes the Nuggets 6-1 SU&ATS in their last 7 games. The Nuggets are also 7-2 straight up in its last 9 road games and covered on 6 of those occasion. The Nuggets will also be playing with big time revenge after losing to the Lakers in last season’s Western Conference Finals in 5 games. Denver is 2-0 SU&ATS versus the Lakers in their last 2 trips to the Staples Center and won by double-digit margins on both occasions. Bet on the Nuggets plus the points for a 5* wager. |

02-04-21 | Rockets +3.5 v. Grizzlies | 115-103 | Win | 100 | 6 h 46 m | Show | |
Rockets @ Grizzlies 9:05 PM ET Game# 507-508 Play On: Rockets +3.5 (5*) Memphis is coming off a 134-116 loss at Indiana on Tuesday which ender their 7-game win streak. After losing their first 5 home games of the season, Memphis has won 3 in a row on its home floor. However, those 3 home wins came by only a combined 11 points. Since the trade of James Harden Houston has transitioned quite nicely. The biggest improvement seems to be on the defensive end. Throughout their previous 5 games, the Rockets have allowed just 102.2 points per contest and held opponents to a pedestrian 32.2% conversion rate from 3-point territory. As a matter of fact, the Rockets rank #2 in the NBA in defensive efficiency this season. They are allowing just 103.6 points per 100 offensive possessions by their opponents. The Rockets are coming off a 104-87 upset loss as a 6.5-point chalk at Oklahoma City last night. That defeat put a halt to a Rockets 6-game win streak. They will be back on track tonight. Bet on the Rockets plus the points for a 5* wager. |

02-04-21 | Warriors +3.5 v. Mavs | 147-116 | Win | 100 | 4 h 12 m | Show | |
Warriors @ Mavericks 7:35 PM Game# 503-504 Play On: Warriors +3.5 (5*) Dallas is coming off a 6-point road win at Atlanta last night which ended a brutal 0-6 SU&ATS stretch. The Mavericks have gone an abysmal 0-5 SU&ATS in their last 5 at home. Dallas has a disappointing season record of 9-13. Dallas is 0-3 SU&ATS in their last 3 games this season when playing with no rest and they lost by a decisive margin of 18.0 points per contest. Golden State is coming off a 4-point home loss to Boston on Tuesday. That dropped their season record to 11-10 (.524) Any NBA road team (Warriors) with a win percentage of .510 to .600 that is coming off a home loss and they’re facing an opponent (Mavericks) with a losing record, resulted in those road teams going 44-22 (66.7%) straight up during the past 5 seasons. The straight up betting angle takes on added significance since it backs the underdog in this matchup. Bet on the Warriors plus the points for a 5* wager. |

Celtics @ Kings 10:05 PM ET Game# 577-578 Play On: Kings +1.5 (5*) The Celtics are coming off a hard fought 111-107 road win at Golden State last night which broke a 2-game losing streak. Each of their previous 3 games have been decided by 4 points or fewer. Sacramento is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games with their last 4 coming as an underdog. They also won 4 of those 5 games straight up. During that 5-game stretch they shot an impressive 48.2% from the field and made 38.2% of its 3-point shot attempts. Throughout that identical stretch, they covered those contests by a combined 39.5 points. Since the start of the 2018-2019 season, NBA non-conference home underdog who were a +35.0 points or greater throughout its previous 5 games has gone 17-7 straight up. Bet on the Kings for a 5* wager. |

Clippers @ Cavaliers 8:05 PM ET Game# 563-564 Play On: Cleveland +8.0 (5*) The Clippers seem to be in a classic letdown spot. They are coming off a 124-120 loss at Brooklyn last night in a hyped TNT nationally televised game. Now they take on Cleveland (10-11) who’s perceived to be a below average Eastern Conference team while doing so with no rest while being installed as a sizable road favorite. This will also be a finale of a grueling 6-game in 9-day road trip for the Clippers. Additionally, it will be their 3rd game in 4 days. Cleveland has gone 4-0 ATS in their last 4 this season as a home underdog and won 3 of those contests straight up. That stretch included beating Brooklyn twice and covering against the Lakers. Bet on the Cavaliers plus the points for a 5* wager. |

76ers @ Hornets 7:05 PM ET Game# 561-562 Play On: Hornets +7.0 (5*) Philadelphia is coming road wins in each of their previous 2 games played. Philadelphia hasn’t won 3 straight games with all coming on the road since the 2015-2016 season. Despite those previously mentioned 2 road wins, the 76ers are still a dismal 15-29 SU&ATS in away games since the start of last season. Furthermore, during that span the 76ers were a money draining 8-15 ATS as a favorite while losing 11 of those contests straight up. Conversely, they have gone an incredible 39-3 straight up and 27-15-2 ATS on their home floor since the start of last season. It would be accurate if you classified them as a textbook Jekyll and Hyde team. Dating back to last season, Charlotte has gone an extremely profitable 9-2 ATS in their last 11 as a home underdog. That includes a perfect 6-0 ATS if they were an underdog of 5.5 or greater and won 3 of those contests straight up. The Hornets have allowed 105 points or more in ach of their last 5 games. Since the start of last season, Charlotte is 17-5 ATS following 3 straight games in which they allowed 105 points or more, and that includes a perfect 4-0 SU&ATS this season with 3 of those as an underdog. |

Detroit @ Utah 10:05 PM ET Game# 555-556 Play On: Utah -12.0 (5*) I very rarely play on an NBA double-digit favorite, but this is an exception to the rule. Utah is a perfect 10-0 ATS in their last 10 as a favorite and won by an average of 15.9 points per game. Those results include 2-0 ATS as a double-digit favorite with an average victory margin of 22.0 points per game. Utah is 3rd in the NBA in 3-point shooting at 39.9%. The Jazz average making a sizable 17 three-point shots per game. Conversely, Detroit is #28 in the NBA in 3-point defense while allowing opponent to convert on an alarmingly high 39.2% of their attempts. The Pistons are a terrible 1-8 on the road so far this season On the other hand, Utah has gone 7-0 SU&ATS in their last 7 as a home favorite with an average victory margin of 16.4 points per contest.. Bet on Utah minus the points for a 5* wager. |

Furthermore, the Grizzlies are 5-0 SU&ATS during its previous 5 road games and 4 of those wins came as an underdog. Conversely, Indiana is just 3-5 straight up and 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games. The Pacers are also a dismal 2-4 straight up and 1-5 ATS in their previous 6 at home. Bet on Memphis plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager. |

Lakers @ Hawks 7:35 PM ET Game# 531-532 Play On: Hawks +6.0 (10*) The Lakers will be playing the finale of a 7-game in 12-day road trip. They have shown signs of fatigue during their previous 2 while scoring just 92 and 96 points. They will be playing an Atlanta team which will enter today’s game with 2 days of rest. The Hawks are 5-2 straight up and 6-1 ATS throughout their previous 7 contests. Atlanta is 4-1 straight up and 5-0 ATS during its last 5 games at home. Their only straight up loss in that sequence came by 4 points in overtime versus Brooklyn, but they still managed to cover as a 3.0-point home underdog. Bet on the Hawks plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager. |

Denver @ San Antonio 8:35 PM ET Game# 579-580 Play On: Denver -4.0 (5*) I just love the way Denver is playing right now. The Nuggets are 5-0 SU&ATS in their previous 5 games and that includes the last 4 being on the road. Furthermore, Denver is 4-0 SU&ATS during it last 4 as a road favorite and won by a substantial average of 16.0 points per game. San Antonio is a shiny 6-3 on the road this season but a disappointing 4-5 at home. Bet on Denver minus the points for a 5* wager. |

Philadelphia @ Minnesota 8:05 PM ET Game# 577-578 Play On: Minnesota +7.0 (5*) Philadelphia is coming off a huge emotional home win over the defending world champion Lakers on Wednesday night, and they did so as a closing 4.5-point underdog to boot. Now they travel to lowly Minnesota on just 1 day of rest. Every sports psychology book would make a case for the Lakers not to being even close to matching the intensity level they had 2 days ago. Besides, this is a Jekyl and Hyde 76ers team. During the past 2 seasons, Philadelphia has been off the charts good at home while going 39-3. However, road games for the 76ers have been quite the opposite. Specifically speaking, Philadelphia is 6-19 straight up and 5-20 ATS in their last 25 true road games. Bet on Minnesota plus the points for a 5* wager. |

LA Lakers @ Philadelphia 7:35 PM ET Game# 639-640 Play On: 76ers +3.5 (5*) The Lakers are an incredible 10-0 in away games this season. However, they will be facing a 76ers team which has gone a fabulous 38-4 straight up in true home games since the start of last season. That includes 9-1 straight up this season. Their only home loss came against Denver in a game the 76ers roster was depleted by players being unavailable due to COVID-19 protocols. Any time I can get a healthy NBA team with a strong home court as an underdog, and they own a win percentage of .600 or better like Philadelphia (12-6/.666), it becomes solid gold to me. Bet on Philadelphia plus the points for a 5* wager. |

Furthermore, the Nets are a dismal 0-3 SU&ATS this season as an away favorite of 4.0 or greater and lost by an average of 8.7 points per game. The Nets are 0-2 ATS against Atlanta this season, losing on the road 114-96, and winning at home 145-141 but failed to cover as a 6.0-point favorite. Atlanta has gone 4-0 SU&ATS in their last 4 home and won by an average of 11.5 points per game. The Hawks held 3 of those 4 visiting opponents to less than 100 points. Since the start of last season, Atlanta is an extremely profitable 16-6 ATS at home when facing an opponent with a winning record like Brooklyn possesses.

Denver @ Miami 7:35 ET Game# 541-52 Play On: Denver -6.0 (5*) This isn’t the same Miami team that made to the NBA Finals last season. They have been without the services of Jimmy Butler (quarantine) who missed 8 straight games and Tyler Herro (17.6 PPG) who’s been out for 6 consecutive games with a neck injury. Neither will be available tonight as well. Miami enters today’s game on a 3-game losing streak and scored 85 points or fewer twice. Denver is 4-0 SU&ATS in their previous 4 games and the last 3 were on the road. Denver is an impressive 6-1 straight up and 5-2 ATS in away games this season while making an outstanding 40.3% of their 3-point shots. As a matter of fact, the Nuggets have shot 48.9% or better from the field in 7 of those 8 road tilts. Bet on Denver minus the points for a 5* wager. |

McCollum (26.7 PPG/5.0 APG) and they failed to cover the first 2 without him. Portland is 1-5 ATS this season as a home favorite of 9.5 or less. Through their previous 5 contests, Portland has allowed 116.2 points per game while opponents shot 48.5% and made 38.1% of its 3-point shot attempts. They were also -11 rebounds per game over that same 5-game stretch. Oklahoma City is a perfect 5-0 SU&ATS this season as a road underdog of 8.0 or less and won by 7.4 points per game. The Thunder suffered their 3rd straight loss last night 108-100 to the Clippers. All 3 of those defeats took place on the road and they were a double-digit underdog on each occasion. Any NBA underdog that are coming off road losses in each of their last 3 games, and they’re playing with nos rest, resulted in those underdogs going an extremely profitable 25-3 ATS (89.3%) since 2016.

Boston @ Chicago 9:05 PM ET Game# 515-516 Play On: Chicago +4.5 (5*) The Celtics are coming off a dominate performance in yesterday’s 141-103 home win over Cleveland. That win broke an 0-3 SU&ATS Celtics streak. Nonetheless, Boston is 0-3 ATS as a road favorite this season and lost 2 of those contests straight up. Conversely, Chicago has gone a perfect 8-0 ATS in their last 8 games this season as an underdog of 6.0 or less and won 6 of those contests straight up.

Philadelphia @ Detroit 7:05 PM ET Game# 501-502 Play On: Detroit +6.5 (5*) This is a 76ers team which has gone an incredible 38-4 in true home games since the start of last season. However, dating back to last season, the Sixers are quite the opposite in true road games having gone 3-14 straight up and ATS in their last 17 in that role, and includes 1-3 SU & 0-4 ATS as a favorite. Conversely, Detroit has gone 5-1 ATS in their last 6 this season as a home underdog. The Piston are also a perfect 4-0 ATS in their last 4 conference home games. These teams squared off on Saturday in Detroit and Philadelphia won by 4 but failed to cover as an 8.5-point favorite. I wouldn’t be shocked at all to see an outright upset in this spot tonight but won’t get greedy and take the points. Bet on Detroit plus the points for a 5* wager. |

This will be the first meeting of the season between these 2 teams in Philadelphia. They met twice in Philadelphia last season and the 76ers went 2-0 SU&ATS with an average winning margin of 12.5 points per game. Boston is coming off a dismal 105-75 home loss to the Knicks in their previous game which snapped a 5-game Celtics winning streak. Boston will continue to be without the services of starter Jayson Tatum who is sidelined after testing positive for COVID-19 last week. Tatum has averaged 26.9 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game this season. Bet on the 76ers minus the points for a 5* wager. |

Rockets @ Bulls 8:05 PM ET Game# 565-566 Play On: Bulls +2.0 (5*) The Rockets team chemistry is a mess. The trade of leading scorer James Harden to Brooklyn has magnified that issue even more. The Rockets are a poor 1-4 in away games this season. Chicago is 3-4 straight up in their last 7 games. However, their 4 losses have come by a combined 11 points. With a bit of luck, they easily could be riding a 7-game win streak. I love the way Chicago is competing on a nightly basis of late. Bet on the Bulls for a 5* wager. |
