Connecticut is no wall flower when it comes to offense either as they average 79 PPG ranking No. 29. Although the Zags defense isn’t what it should be they will play up to their opponents talents and the Huskies do play defense allowing a mere 64.8 PPG playing that east coast basketball. The contrast in styles could not be more on display then what you will see here Saturday night. Play UNDER!

The Warriors went 5-0 during the preseason while the Lakers were 0-6 and this contest might prove that once again those game are just practice sessions. LA added Russell Westbrook to play side-by-side with LeBron James, Anthony Davis and the likes of Carmelo Anthony, Rajon Rondo, Dwight Howard and DeAndre Jordan and the results remain to be seen.

Money Game L.A. Clippers at Dallas 9:30 ET Clips/Mavs (UNDER)- It's the old adage go 'be careful what you wish for.' The Clippers tanked their final two games (disgracefully) so that they could avoid playing the Lakers and draw the Mavericks. But, Dallas is a group of professionals that had their pride injured and responded with a pair of wins at Los Angeles and take a 2-0 advantage into Game 3. Instinct tells us that the desperate and favored Clippers will post a win here but I'm not so sure. What I am most confident in is that this game should stay under the total. LA is 7-1-2 Under is their last nine playoff games and the Under is good 5-1 in the last six meetings and here's the kicker, the Mavs are 21-5 Under when playing as underdogs and 15-7 Under at home.

Auburn vs Kentucky 2:20 ET Tigers/Wildcats- (Under) Defense is key in these most important of conflicts and when that is a teams mantra it's difficult to swim up steam so to speak. I mean look at these stats...Kentucky is 13-3 Under in their last 16 NCAA tournament games, they are 10-3 Under against the SEC in the last 13 and they are not only 19-7 under in their last 26 overall and they are 12-3 under in their last 15 meetings! ...DUH...Play UNDER!

Purdue vs Virginia 8:50 ET Boilermakers/Cavaliers (Under 126)- Big games have a way of tightening things up as not only the scores but more importantly the players performance. This is the deepest Purdue has been in NCAA action since 1980 and the rim might seem a little 'tighter' as well. And a veteran defense that is at the top of their game. Play this one to stay...UNDER!

Golden State at Houston 8:00 ET Warriors/Rockets UNDER- Seven-of-last-10 meetings have gone under. You know it doesn't take much for one or more of these guys to be 'off' their game, and then they work harder on defense. (How did that sound?) Seriously, when these 'big guns' come out to play the NBA Playoffs pressure is more likely to shorten up their stroke a bit (Think 76ers!). The Rockets know they have a 'rap' for being lax on defense, but they know how good Golden State is and that the Warriors will eat them alive if the don't clamp down on the World Champs. Both teams will run when the can but the majority of possessions with be under control. Play the UNDER!

Teams that are down 3-0 in NBA playoff history are 0-129 and Philadelphia know what they are up against. Brad Stevens knows that defense is key on NBA Playoff action and he has the Celtics playing intense pressure on the ball.

The Sixers defensive average is three points better at home and the Celtics offensive score is four points on the road. Take UNDER!

Once again, I understand that Lebron had a 'bad' night 26013-17 and we all expect him to bust out again but so what his supporting cast (Ha, supporting) gives him very littler. It's still and five man game and this once comes down to guarding your opponent. Play the UNDER!

Chip's NBA Playoff 'Total' (Jazz/Rockets) Jazz/Rockets (UNDER)- Last night it took five extra minutes of play in overtime to take our 'Under' total (Cavs/Raptors) over and that is the biggest risk at times when playing the 'Under.' Tonight the Jazz will once again be without catalyst Rickie Rubio and they will adjust on offense and try and slow to Rockets offense down a bit. Rudy Gobert is a Defensive Player of the Year candidate who failed to block a shot for the first time this season in Game 1 will have a stronger presence tonight. lPay the UNDER!

The Raptors will run and gun while the Cavaliers will slow it down and miss plenty of shots. Play the UNDER!

Utah at Houston 3:30 ET Jazz/Rockets UNDER- Utah's offensive catalyst Ricky Rubio will not play in Game 1 of this playoffs series and that will negatively effect the Jazz ability to match scores with Houston and dictate the pace of play. They will depend on 7-foot-2 Rudy Gobert to close down the middle as he is one of the top three shot blockers in the league. Without Rubio the Jazz offense has been known to bog down a bit.

San Antonio at Golden State 10:30 ET Spurs/Warriors UNDER- What has happened here is I looked at all-three games and compared just the 'totals' between each matchup. The first thing I saw was that the lowest number was on this game...does that make any sense. Then, I noticed this is the 'smallest' total posted in this series despite the Over being 4-0-1 last five at home and 6-1-1 in the last eight meetings between the two have gone OVER. And now they give you a chance to bet it at a lower price. I think it is a 'trap.' Play UNDER!

I expect Michigan to pressure the 'ball' no matter who has it when Villanova is on offense and they will stop the ball in the back court to avoid break-away baskets. The Wolverines are not the best shooting free throw team and probably will be below their average tonight. Play the UNDER!

Michigan is a notoriously weak foul shooting team having only one good offensive game in the tourney when the routed Texas A&M and scored 99 points but other then that it has been 61, 64 and 58. Loyola's highest out put was last time out with 78 against Kansas State but otherwise it's 69,63 and 64. This game stays UNDER!
