Dallas have lost 7 straight on the road (2-14 overall, ouch), however coming off a victory last night against the Raptors, there may be a touch of swagger in the group tonight.
Cannot back the Mavs on the road. Both teams poor defensively, take the overs with confidence.
Best Bet = Over 204.5 and Indiana ML

Knicks 2-10 on the road doesn’t instill much confidence, and after imploding late down the stretch against the 76ers on Christmas Day, we’re off the wagon.
Bulls ML tonight and Overs.
Best Bet = Over 208.5

The T-Wolves have won 4 straight and now fully healthy are starting to show what we thought they would earlier in the season.
Emmanuel Mudiay and Mason Plumlee still sit for the Nuggets.

Danger game here with the Pelicans too short to choose the ML. Like the over considering the Nets were able to put up 97 points against the Spurs.

The Raptors crapped the bed last night in Dallas and failed to resemble a conference leader. Will Roberson take a leaf out of Matthews’ book in stopping DeRozan? Thunder are also streaking with 5 straight.

The Kings are on a B2B with the Cavs being well rested with only 1 game in 6 days. Only risk will be the possible rest of some key players.

Utah’s road record is the complete inverse to the Warriors home record. Golden State had a tough go in Denver and will look forward to returning back to Oracle.
Best Bet = Golden State -12.0

Even though they are on a B2B, the Grizzlies will be fired up after losing on the buzzer last night. Its never a good sign with the Lakers going in as favourites with no real answer for Gasol at either end.
Best Bet = Over 198.5
