Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Spanish LaLiga Take Villarreal over Getafe (10:15 a.m. EST, Saturday February 14) This series has been extremely one sided. Getafe hasn’t won in 14 meetings. Villarreal have nine outright wins in that span. They won 2-1 in their last visit here, and they have won four of the last six visits to Getafe with two draws. Villarreal is by far the stronger team. They have recently experienced a bad run of form. They lost four straight between Champions League and LaLiga action. But their last match indicates to us that they have regained their form, as they earned a resounding 4-1 win Monday over Espanyol. Espanyol was No. 6 on the table. Getafe is No. 18 of 20 LaLiga sides for home form this season. They have only 12 points at home in 11 home matches, and they have scored only eight goals here all season. Villarreal is one of the best road sides in LaLiga. They have earned 17 points in 10 road tilts, with five outright wins. We are getting a nice number here for the road side because of their inconsistent play recently, but we loved what we saw from this side on Monday and we are confident they will walk away with three points here.

Wednesday NBA Free play. My selection is on Golden State plus the points over San Antonio at 10:10 pm et on Wednesday.
We'll grab all the points we can get with the underdog Warriors on Wednesday. The Spurs were in a smash spot against a short-handed Lakers team in Los Angeles last night and predictably rolled by 28 points. While that wasn't an overly taxing affair, I do think they're in a letdown spot in their final game before the All-Star break on Wednesday as they look to extend their five-game SU and ATS winning streak. The Warriors will be missing some key contributors again on Wednesday - most notably Steph Curry. However, they're coming off a win over Memphis two nights ago and will look to head into the break on a positive note. I like the way they've tightened the screws defensively in recent games, holding four straight opponents to 42 or fewer made field goals. Producing shot volume has been an issue offensively but I think they can be dragged along by a Spurs team that has yielded 90 or more field goal attempts in nine of their last 12 games. It's going to be difficult for San Antonio to replicate its last two offensive performances as it connected on a ridiculous 107-of-191 field goal attempts over that stretch. Take Golden State.
