7 games tonight, and the parlay streak ended last night. Going for a big one tonight. Utah the risk.


Tonight’s Best Pick:

Boston Celtics @ Milwaukee Bucks – Boston WIN @ +115 – WIN


Sacramento @ Charlotte

Points +/-

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Sacramento 103.0 105.8 -2.8
Charlotte 105.2 103.5 +1.7

Last 5

26.01.16 – Charlotte Hornets 129 @ Sacramento Kings 128 – OT
24.11.15 – Sacramento Kings 122 @ Charlotte Hornets 127 – OT
21.03.15 – Charlotte Hornets 91 @ Sacramento Kings 101
12.03.15 – Sacramento Kings 113 @ Charlotte Hornets 106
05.01.14 – Charlotte Hornets 113 @ Sacramento Kings 103

Picks –

Best Bet: Charlotte WIN @ -294 – The Kings don’t have the worst record on the road and the Hornets are coming off a B2B. These teams like a battle and Charlotte came up just short to New York last night that could give them the edge to get a W at home tonight.

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Over 209.0 points @ -110 – Regardless of the last 2 games between the two ended in Overtime, the matchup still boast a high scoring encounter.


Detroit @ Miami

Points +/-

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Detroit 100.6 101.3 -0.7
Miami 99.2 102.2 -3.0

Last 5

02.01.17 – Detroit Pistons 107 @ Miami Heat 98
24.11.16 – Miami Heat 84 @ Detroit Pistons 107
13.04.16 – Miami Heat 99 @ Detroit Pistons 93
06.04.16 – Detroit Pistons 89 @ Miami Heat 107
23.12.15 – Detroit Pistons 93 @ Miami Heat 92

Picks –

Best Bet: None – Miami are riding the same wave the 76ers have been on the last 2 weeks and would back themselves in again tonight, on the proviso Whiteside is available to give Drummond a hard time.

Feeling Lucky: Miami WIN @ +151 – The Heat have won 6 straight while still being second last in the East for now (I’m sure Pat Reilly is trying his hardest to be happy and not happy at the same time considering the draft implications.) Ride with them again?


Boston @ Milwaukee

Points +/-

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Boston 108.0 105.6 +2.4
Milwaukee 104.6 104.5 +0.1

Last 5

09.04.16 – Milwaukee Bucks 109 @ Boston Celtics 124
26.02.16 – Milwaukee Bucks 107 @ Boston Celtics 112
10.02.16 – Boston Celtics 111 @ Milwaukee Bucks 112
11.11.15 – Boston Celtics 99 @ Milwaukee Bucks 83
16.04.15 – Boston Celtics 105 @ Milwaukee Bucks 100

Picks –

Best Bet: Boston +2.5 @-110 – The Celtics are in striking distance of the 2nd seed with the Raptors struggling and have controlled this matchup in recent times. Not to mention, the Bucks have lost 7 out of their last 8 and since the Greek Freak was named an all-star, the team haven’t been the same.

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Over 218.0 – First game of the year for these two East teams. Horford missed the last game and is said to be available tonight.


LA Clippers @ Golden State

Points +/-

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
LA Clippers 108.0 103.0 +5.0
Golden State 117.5 104.8 +12.7

Last 5

08.12.16 – Golden State Warriors 115 @ Los Angeles Clippers 98
05.10.16 – Los Angeles Clippers 75 @ Golden State Warriors 120
24.03.16 – Los Angeles Clippers 98 @ Golden State Warriors 114
21.02.16 – Golden State Warriors 115 @ Los Angeles Clippers 112
20.11.15 – Golden State Warriors 124 @ Los Angeles Clippers 117

Picks –

Best Bet: Golden State WIN @ -909The Warriors have owned this matchup winning the last 6 times. Highlighting the last 3 games where they have kept the Clippers under 100 points – well below their season average this year.

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Under 224.5 @ -110 – No Chris Paul, Blake is fresh from injury, will the Clippers be able to score and does history have it right with their struggles in Oakland?


Brooklyn @ Minnesota

Points +/-

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Brooklyn 106.0 114.9 -8.9
Minnesota 103.5 104.6 -1.1

Last 5

09.11.16 – Minnesota Timberwolves 110 @ Brooklyn Nets 119
06.03.16 – Brooklyn Nets 118 @ Minnesota Timberwolves 132
21.12.15 – Minnesota Timberwolves 100 @ Brooklyn Nets 85
17.03.15 – Brooklyn Nets 122 @ Minnesota Timberwolves 106
06.11.14 – Minnesota Timberwolves 98 @ Brooklyn Nets 91

Picks –

Best Bet: Brooklyn +11.5 @-110 – With a 2-20 record on the road, there is really no way that the universe could deliver a win for the Nets in Minnesota tonight, especially on a back to back.

With a league worst 9-37 record the Nets have little chance against a TWolves team with a days break, that are out for redemption following some recent close, winnable losses.

They don’t win big though.

Feeling Lucky: Minnesota 1-10 @2.74 (+174) – As stated above, the Wolves will win, but blowouts are non-existent in recent history.


Denver @ Phoenix

Points +/-

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Denver 110.1 111.1 -1.0
Phoenix 106.5 111.8 -5.3

Last 5

27.01.17 – Phoenix Suns 120 @ Denver Nuggets 127
28.11.16 – Denver Nuggets 120 @ Phoenix Suns 114
17.11.16 – Phoenix Suns 104 @ Denver Nuggets 120
11.03.16 – Phoenix Suns 98 @ Denver Nuggets 116
24.12.15 – Denver Nuggets 104 @ Phoenix Suns 96

Picks –

Best Bet: Nope –  Jokic will sit for the Nuggets following a hip injury as Denver overcame Phoenix 127-120 at home. This matchup follows on tonight in Phoenix, and the loss of Jokic, who is one of 5 players averaging 20 ppg and 10 rbg in January will be a big loss.

Coin toss.

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Under 232.5 @ -110That line is just too high to ignore at the -110 price. Perhaps just steer clear of this.


Memphis @ Utah

Points +/-

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Memphis 99.9 99.7 +0.2
Utah 99.4 95.4 +4.0

Last 5

09.01.17 – Utah Jazz 79 @ Memphis Grizzlies 88
19.12.16 – Utah Jazz 82 @ Memphis Grizzlies 73
15.11.16 – Memphis Grizzlies 102 @ Utah Jazz 96
05.03.16 – Utah Jazz 88 @ Memphis Grizzlies 94
03.01.16 – Memphis Grizzlies 87 @ Utah Jazz 92 – OT

Picks –

Best Bet: Utah -7.0 @-110 – With a day’s break the Jazz have us licking our lips with this line. Last night the Grizzlies fell to the Blazers in Portland, and the back to back will be too much. Video game addict Gordon Hayward has become the Jazz’s first All-Star in 6 years.

Veteran Grizzlies center Marc Gasol has averaged 32.6 points over his last five games. Watch the player props for the big guy.

Feeling Lucky: Utah Jazz 1-10 @2.35 (+135)
