This is an 8* play on the Memphis Grizzlies.

The LA Lakers (19-38) comes off a 98-119 loss to the Indiana Pacers last night. Pau Gasol had 22 points and 11 rebounds in the loss. The Lakers lost for the 24th time out of 30 without Steve Nash, Kobe Bryant and Xavier Henry. The Memphis Grizzlies (31-24) comes off a 92-89 loss at Charlotte. Marc Gasol had 15 points, and Zach Randolph had 12 points and 11 rebounds for Memphis, which fell two games behind Dallas in the race for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference. The Lakers having to play the Pacers and then the Grizzlies right after the other is tough enough but having to do it on back to back to nights on the road spells disaster for the injury riddled club. The Grizzlies also come into this game motivated to revenge a four point loss at home to LA back in December when the team was playing poorly. Memphis is 5-2 ATS coming off an upset loss as the favorite. The Grizzlies have won four of five and have played some very solid basketball since the start of the New Year. LA has lost six of seven and is just 10-19 on the road. Lay the points in what will likely be a blowout.

This is a 5* play on the Philadelphia 76ers.

The Cleveland Cavaliers (20-30) finished up the first half of the NBA season with a 93-89 win at Detroit. Tristan Thompson had 25 points and 16 rebounds and Kyrie Irving had 23 points in the win. The Cavaliers have now won four games in row. The Philadelphia 76ers (15-39) is coming off a 100-105 loss at Utah. Evan Turner scored 21 points and Michael Carter-Williams and Thaddeus Young had 19 apiece for Philadelphia. While the Cavaliers are on their nicest streak since LeBron James skipped town I feel there will be a bit of a letdown here on the road Philadelphia. The Cavs are 0-2 ATS as the road favorite this season and just 9-18ATS in all road games where they have managed to win just 7 games this season. The 76ers have not played well we all know that but after the break and the start of the second half I think we see the 76ers show some life as it is a new beginning for a lot of these young players. The biggest factor here just might be the fact that Philly is 4-0 SU and ATS versus the Cavaliers the last three seasons. The Cavaliers have dropped their last five visits by an average of 14.8. After shooting 33.3 percent in a 94-79 loss in Philadelphia on Nov. 8, Cleveland totaled 238 points while hitting 44.1 percent from 3-point range in consecutive home wins in the series.

This is a 10* "DOUBLE REVENGE ATS SUPER BLOWOUT" on the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Denver Nuggets (24-26) is coming off a 80-119 blowout loss at Indiana. The Nuggets also finished with a season-worst shooting percentage (31.5), far worse than their previous low mark (36.4) against the Clippers on Dec. 21. Only three players reached double figures -- Wilson Chandler with 17, J.J. Hickson with 12 and Jordan Hamilton with 11. The Minnesota Timberwolves (24-28) is coming off a 89-107 blowout loss to Houston on the road. Kevin Love led Minnesota with 31 points and 10 rebounds. Chase Budinger had 15 points as a fill-in starter and Alexey Shved scored 11 off the bench for the Timberwolves, who have lost four straight and six of seven. While the T

The Miami Heat (35-14) is coming off a 89-94 loss at Utah. Dwyane Wade had 19 points for the Heat, who missed their last four shots from the field to thwart their comeback bid. LeBron James was 4 of 13 from the field for 13 points. The Phoenix Suns (30-20) come off a 122-109 win at home over Golden State. Goran Dragic had 34 points, Gerald Green added 25 points and P.J. Tucker had 16 points and a career-best 15 rebounds for Phoenix. The Heat couldn

This is a 10* "SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION" on the Toronto Raptors.

The New Orleans Pelicans (22-28) is coming off a 81-93 loss at Brooklyn on Sunday night. Anthony Davis had 24 points and nine rebounds for the Pelicans, who had won seven of 10. They used big fourth-quarter comebacks to win their previous two games, but fell too far behind to come back in this one. The Toronto Raptors (26-24) comes off a 105-118 loss at the LA Clippers. DeMar DeRozan had 36 points and 8 assists in the loss. For the Raps it was it was a disappointing road trip where the team went just 2-3 and I expect that now is that the team is back at home you see it be highly motivated to get a big complete win at home here. The Pelicans had a nice a little stretch of ball but this is a tough spot for the team here in a back to back situation. The Raptors are a perfect 3-0 SU and ATS versus the Pelicans the last three seasons. The Raptors have largely been good at bouncing back at this season against poor performances, judging 7-4 SU and 8-3 ATS record in games after allowing 105 points or more in the previous game. New Orleans is just 9-15 SU in road games this season. Lay the points to get a motivated and rested Raptors team.

This is a 9* "WEST-COAST EXPRESS" on the Phoenix Suns.

The Golden State Warriors (30-20) is coming off a 102-87 win over Chicago at home. Stephen Curry finished with 34 points and nine assists, Klay Thompson scored 22 points and the undermanned Warriors rallied to get the win on Thursday night. The Phoenix Suns (29-20) come off a 108-122 loss at Houston. Goran Dragic had 23 points and eight assists for the Suns, who have dropped two in a row after winning five straight. The Suns have struggled suddenly struggled but this looks to be a good opportunity to get back on track here at home. The Suns are extra motivated in this game after a losing a blowout game at Golden State the last time these teams met. Phoenix is still 3-2 SU in games versus the Warriors at home and is 14-9 ATS in games were it is revenging a loss to an opponent. Golden State got an easy win over Bulls but I expect a letdown here going out on the road. The Warriors are just 7-10 ATS in games after a win by 10 points or more. The Suns are 3-0 ATS in games after a loss of 10 points or more. Phoenix is a profitable 3-1 ATS in home games where the team is a favorite of three points or less. Phoenix is a strong 16-8 SU and 14-9 ATS in home games this season. Lay the short points here.

This is a 9* "ART OF THE GAME" on the Portland Trailblazers.

The Portland Trailblazers (34-14) is coming off a 90-100 loss at Washington. Damian Lillard scored 25 points, and Aldridge had 20 to lead the Trail Blazers, who have lost four straight road games. The New York Knicks (19-29) is coming off a 98-101 upset loss at Milwaukee. Carmelo Anthony finished 13 of 25 from the field and 5 of 10 from 3-point range. J.R. Smith had 30 points and seven rebounds. The Knicks have been very streaky of late and right now we in one of those losing streaks after a bad loss at a very weak Milwaukee. I expect the streak lasts a little longer with a strong Portland team looking to bounce off a rare loss for it. The Trailblazers are 3-1 SU and ATS versus the Knicks the last three seasons. Keep an eye out for Blazers forward Nicolas Batum. Batum has averaged 21.7 points during Portland's three-game winning streak in this series. Note that the Knicks are 0-3 ATS as a home underdog of three points or less this season. In fact the Knicks have struggled at home where they are 11-16 SU and 9-18 ATS. the Knicks are just 4-11 SU and 5-10 ATS in games versus the tough western conference this season. Lay the short points to get Portland to get the win and cover the spread along the way.

This is a 9* "SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION" on the Orlando Magic.

The Detroit Pistons (19-28) is coming off a 96-102 loss at Miami. Brandon Jennings had 26 points and seven assists for the Pistons, who trailed almost the entire game. The Orlando Magic (13-37) is coming off a 79-98 loss at Indiana. Arron Afflalo led the Magic with 20 points but was shut out for the final 23:47. Nikola Vucevic added 16 points, getting only four over the final 19 minutes. The only other Orlando player to reach double figures was Tobias Harris, who finished with 11. The Magic are the underdog here but shouldn

This is an 8* "ATS BLOODBATH" on the Phoenix Suns.

The Chicago Bulls (23-24) is coming off a 70-99 blowout loss at Sacramento. Jimmy Butler had 17 points for the frustrated Bulls, who have lost two straight and three of four. Tony Snell and Taj Gibson each had 11 points. Chicago was outscored 28-13 in the fourth quarter and its point total was the lowest by a Kings opponent all season. The Phoenix Suns (29-18) is coming off a 105-95 win at home over the Charlotte Bobcats. Goran Dragic scored 25 points and Marcus Morris added 15 points for the Suns, who have won five straight games and seven of their last eight. It's the second time the Suns have won five in a row, matching their longest winning streak of the season. Normally I would expect a veteran team like the Bulls to bounce back off a tough loss but unfortunately for them they go against an even tougher opponent the very night after in these Suns. Phoenix is hot and has gone 16-7 SU and 14-8 ATS on home court this season. The Suns also go into this game looking for revenge after a three point loss back in January at Chicago. The Suns are 14-8 ATS and 11-5 SU in a revenge situation this season. While the Suns are a healthy 3-1 ATS as a road favorite of 6.5-9 points the Bulls are just 1-2 ATS as the underdog of that point total. Don

The Memphis Grizzlies (26-20) is coming off a 99-90 win over Milwaukee. Zach Randolph had 23 points and 10 rebounds for Memphis, which has won a season-best six straight and 11 of 12 overall. Marc Gasol scored 19. The Oklahoma City Thunder (38-11) is coming off a 81-96 loss at Washington. Kevin Durant scored 26 points and Serge Ibaka added 12 in a losing cause. The Thunder had its

This is a 10* "SCORPION" on the Golden State Warriors.

The LA Clippers (33-10) come off a hard fought 110-103 win at home over Washington. Blake Griffin led five players in double figures with 29 points as the Clippers won their fourth in a row. Jamal Crawford added 21 points, including two 3-pointers from 29 and 33 feet, and Jordan had 14 points and 17 rebounds for the Clippers. The Golden State Warriors (27-19) is coming off a 84-88 loss at home to Washington on Tuesday night. Stephen Curry scored 23 points before missing a contested left-handed 3-pointer as time expired, and Thompson had 13 points and six rebounds. The Warriors did not look good versus the Wizards on Tuesday but I think we see them come out with a lot of energy here against a conference rival Golden State is 7-5 SU after an upset loss as a favorite. The Clippers are coming off a hard fought win just last night and should be a little weary here having to go on the road and play in a tough environment in Golden State. Golden State is 4-1 SU and 3-2 ATS in games against the Clippers as the host the last three seasons. Lay the short points with Golden State.

This is a 10* "ASSASSIN" on the Detroit Pistons.

The Orlando Magic (12-33) is coming off a 92-100 loss at New Orleans. Led by Arron Afflalo's 25 points, the Magic twice got as close as three points late in the fourth quarter. Victor Oladipo 18 points and five steals for Orlando, while Tobias Harris added 17 points and nine rebounds and Jameer Nelson scored 15 points in a losing cause. The host Detroit Pistons (17-27) is coming off a 106-116 loss at Dallas. Brandon Jennings had 27 points and seven assists in a losing cause. Coming into this matchup, the Pistons are a profitable 3-1 SU and ATS as a home favorite of 6.5-9 points. The Magic is just 2-7 SU and ATS as an underdog of this amount. The Magic have been just horrible on the road this season with a SU record of 3-19 and an ATS of 9-13. The Pistons come in more motivated to win big after losing to the Magic 92-109 in Florida in late December. The Pistons are still 3-1 SU and ATS in meetings with the Magic in Michigan. Lay the points with the motivated home squad.

This is a 10* "ART OF WAR" on the Atlanta Hawks.

The Atlanta Hawks (23-20) is coming off a 112-87 win at Milwaukee. Paul Millsap had 20 points and eight rebounds to lead six Hawks who scored in double figures. The big win came after a massive blowout loss to San Antonio. The Oklahoma City Thunder (35-10) is coming off a 103-91 win at Philadelphia. Kevin Durant continued his hot streak, scoring 32 points grabbing 14 rebounds and dishing out 10 assists to lead the Thunder. Serge Ibaka had 25 points and 11 rebounds for the Thunder. The Thunder is coming off some easy wins on the road but I am expecting the sledding to be tougher against stronger talent in Atlanta. The Hawks have won five of their last eight and come in OKC with some confidence as the team beat the Thunder on the road last season. The value is good here with the Thunder who are getting quite a few points despite only losing by as many as 9 points in the two previous losses to the Thunder. Atlanta is 1-0 this season and 5-3 the past few seasons as a road underdog of 9.5-12 points. OKC is just 1-3 ATS as a home favorite of 9.5-12 points this season. Grab the points with Atlanta.

The Miami Heat (31-12) is coming off a 109-102 win at home over the LA Lakers. Chris Bosh had a 31-point night, LeBron James added 27 points and 13 rebounds and the Heat never trailed in this game. This is a rematch of the thrilling finals from last season and I fully expect the Heat to come out hard for this game. The Heat have been accused of

This is a 10* "ART OF THE GAME" on the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Houston Rockets (29-16) and the Memphis Grizzlies (21-20) played in Houston last night in a game that the Grizzlies squeaked out a 88-87 win. Courtney Lee scored 19 points, Zach Randolph added 15 in the Memphis win. Chandler Parsons scored 34 points in a losing effort. Memphis took care of the really hard part in the first half of the back-to-back and should have all the confidence in the world to take care of business here back at home. The Grizzlies have now won six of seven and are starting to roll with key players starting to get healthy. The Grizzlies are 5-2 in home games where they are labeled the favorite of three points or less. Memphis is a solid 4-1 SU and ATS versus Houston in games played in Tennessee the last three seasons. Lay the short points with Memphis.

This is a 10* "SUPER-BLOWOUT" on the New York Knicks.

The Charlotte Bobcats (19-25) come off a 95-91 win at home over the LA Clippers. Al Jefferson had 24 points and 10 rebounds to lead Charlotte to its first win over the Clippers in their last seven tries. The New York Knicks (15-27) come off a 106-110 loss at home to Philadelphia. Carmelo Anthony scored 28 points after a slow start for the Knicks, who were at least competitive after losing the previous four by a combined 75 points. The Knicks have been very unreliable at home this season but I expect they pick it up and finally earn a win after some self admittedly terrible games. The Bobcats are feeling pretty good about themselves after two upset wins as the underdog. I expect a bit of a letdown in this game. Charlotte has really had the run of play here against the Knicks the past few seasons but I think we see the Knicks show some pride here as revenge is likely on the table. The Bobcats are still just 8-13 on the road this season and people are starting to take the team very seriously after some upset wins. Don

This is a 10* "ASSASSIN" on the Philadelphia 76ers.

The Toronto Raptors (21-20) come off a 93-85 win at home over the Dallas Mavericks. DeMar DeRozan scored a career-high 40 points, Greivis Vasquez had 17 and the Raptors snapped a two-game losing streak. The Philadelphia 76ers (14-28) come off a 110-106 win at the New York Knicks. Evan Turner scored 34 points and 11 rebounds while Michael Carter-Williams and Young each added 19 points for the 76ers, who won for just the second time in nine games. The Raptors are finally starting to get some respect at the sports books but I think this is a little bit too much respect on the road. The Sixers are 3-2 SU and ATS when facing the Raptors at home the last three seasons. The Raptors are just 10-11 on the road this season. Since a nice five game winning streak, the Raptors are just 2-3 SU and ATS with losses to the LA Lakers at home at Boston and Charlotte. The 76ers are getting back from a three game road trip and should have a lot of energy back on home court. Thaddeus Young is averaging 18.7 points while shooting 60.0 percent over his last six matchups with Toronto.

This is a 10* "WEST-COAST EXPRESS" on the Denver Nuggets.

The Denver Nuggets (20-20) is 117-103 upset loss at home to Phoenix. Anthony Randolph scored a season-best 19 for the Nuggets, who have lost four of five and were without guard Randy Foye because of a stomach virus. Evan Fournier, Ty Lawson and Wilson Chandler added 17 points apiece for Denver. The Portland Trailblazers (31-11) come off a 97-105 loss at Oklahoma City. LaMarcus Aldridge had 29 points and 16 rebounds, but he went 1-for-8 from the field in the fourth quarter. The Blazers are the favorite in this matchup but this looks to be too many points for them to cover in this situation. The Nuggets are looking to bounce back off a double digit loss at home. Denver is 3-2 SU and ATS as an underdog of 6.5-9 points this season. Denver also comes in extremely motivated thanks to a double digit loss at home to these same Blazers the last matchup between these two teams. Portland is coming off a tough road trip having to play some good teams and I expect a big of a letdown. Portland is 1-4 ATS after three consecutive road games. Also it

Damian Lillard added 24 points and Wesley Matthews had 18. The Oklahoma City Thunder (31-10) comes off a 108-93 win at home over Sacramento. Kevin Durant had 30 points and nine rebounds while Serge Ibaka added 20 points in the win. The Thunder have won three straight now with Durant getting hot and should be plenty motivated to take out a Portland team that beat them 98-94 in OKC just a few weeks ago. Note the Thunder is 3-1 ATS as a home favorite of 3.5-6 points this season. The Trailblazers are in a tough stretch of games here having to play just last night in Houston against a very fast paced Rockets team and now having to play a just as fast paced Thunder team the next night. Houston is just 9-13 ATS versus teams with that score 99 or points. Lay the points with Oklahoma City.
