THE RUB
The Heat will be without superstar free agent signing Jimmy Butler and get one of the toughest gigs in basketball….. trying to stop the Greek Freak Giannis.
With the height that the Bucks can throw on the court, the young Miami squad will be a team of boys against men.
OUR PICK – Milwaukee -10.0

It will be a bit like Space Jam tonight with the Tune Squad facing the Monstars.
Andre Drummond has started the season on fire but will come up against a very, very tall opponent and will need a Michael Jordan to get close to a win.
OUR PICK – Philadelphia -5.5

THE RUB
Orlando got the job done on opening night against a very inexperienced Cavs lineup. Coming of their playoffs birth last season, they are pretty much rolling with that winning formula.
Trae Young really came out with a bang and got the Pistons on a B2B. If the Magic can limit his influence, they will come home with the W.
OUR PICK – Orlando -2.0
BOSTON @ NEW YORK
Trends
- Under is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in New York.
- Celtics are 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings in New York.

THE RUB
Both teams are coming off a B2B although the travel will be minimal for the Knicks playing in Brooklyn last night. In both games New York have played this season, they have been in winning positions in the last quarter.
Something for the Celtics to be wary of, still their line up and talent should get the job done. If you aren’t keen, take the Under.
OUR PICK – Boston -5.0
TORONTO @ CHICAGO

THE RUB
The Bulls were very close to being 0-2 after just getting over the line against Memphis on the road. A lot of expectation on this young team, the pressure maybe getting to them.
Tonight they will really need to straighten up with the Raptors in town. Even without Kawhi, the defending Champs still have the talent and experience that can’t be under estimated.
OUR PICK – Toronto -3.0
INDIANA @ CLEVELAND

- Pacers are 21-8-1 ATS in the last 30 meetings.

THE RUB
After a disappointing home loss on opening night to the Pistons, the Pacers get a mulligan in the shape of the Cavaliers tonight.
Should be able to bounce back although there is a doubt on Jeremy Lamb lining up for Indiana. Still a win for us.
OUR PICK – Indiana -5.0
NEW ORLEANS @ HOUSTON

THE RUB
The Pelicans have shown early that they like to run and score. On the road to Houston on a B2B, we hope the scoring continues with the Rockets looking for their first win of the season. High scoring or a blow out.
OUR PICK – Over 237.5
WASHINGTON @ SAN ANTONIO

THE RUB
Not thinking too much into this contest just based on what we already know.
Washington are on a road B2B and are up against a very formidable team with rest. An easy get for the Spurs again.
OUR PICK – Under 218.0
LA CLIPPERS @ PHOENIX

THE RUB
The Clippers are looking very strong early on and have answers for everything so far. Once Kawhi hit the bench, they sub in Lou Williams and Montrezl Harrell and their opponents can’t get a break.
2x 10+ point victories already, liking the spread again where the Suns are on a B2B in OT.
OUR PICK – LA Clippers -9.0
SACRAMENTO @ UTAH
Trends
- Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings.

What do we know about the Jazz, they love low scoring encounters and we will mention it again, both teams are on a B2B.
OUR PICK – Under 223.5
