Game Gauge: 7-3 L 10

As the game gauge shows I am heating up in my last ten hitting 70% and doing well in the NBA and tonight I have a huge card!

One unit: Detroit -7

Revenge is a dish best served cold and the Pistons are ready for the Magic this time around. "When you have younger teams and they are looking to try and climb that mountain and get to the top, they have to go through certain people," Detroit's Chauncey Billups said after Monday's game. "We are one of those teams. We have been for a long time and we are going to be there for a long time." When DETROIT team played as a -6.5 to -9.0 Home Favorite - After a conference game - Coming off a 8-11 point win they are 7-4 ATS

Clippers +10

The Clippers responded to a challenge by the coach in the last game and today they have double revenge going against the Hornets. The Hornets are on a huge winning streak but can easily look past the Clippers with the Spurs on deck. When NEW ORLEANS team played as a Home team - with 1 day off - Total is between 185 to 190 - Coming off vs Western conference opponent they are 6-18-2 ATS.



Two Units: Kings +7.5

The kings fell down to the Clippers in the last game but they are finally healthy and can play with some of the better teams in the west. Sacramento is 15-5 ATS as an underdog of 3.5 to 9.5 points. When SACRAMENTO team Played as Road team as a Underdog - Before a conference game - Last 5 years - Coming off 1 game road stand they are 10-2-2 ATS. The kings match up well against the Jazz and should have a good shot at winning tonight.
Three Units:

Seattle +2.5

Atlanta is 4-16 ATS Away playing with same season revenge and Seattle is 9-0 ATS at home off 6+ losses. The Hawks are on a losing streak and have had a very tough time on the road this year. The Sonics have played better of late and just missed out winning against Houston. They play well in games with plenty of running and have always done well against the Hawks.


Cleveland +2

The Cavs are a solid wager tonight against the Suns. The Suns are in the dog end of a long road trip and because of the style of basketball they play long road trips take their toll. This was never more evident than in the last game when they lost outright to lowly Minnesota. Cleveland is 12-1 ATS at home off BB covers as favorite. When CLEVELAND team played as a pk to 3 Home Underdog - After a non division game - Coming off 2 overs they are 8-2 ATS.
I went into the lab to crunch numbers on the Suns at the end of a road trip and this is what I found. The Suns are 88-98 ATS in road games when playing in the third game in four nights. When they are coming off a loss in the last game the number drops to 32-44 ATS and finally when they are a PK to 3 point favorite that are just 9-17 ATS covering at just a 35% clip.

Four Units: Charlotte +3

The cats have revenge against the Bulls and catch them at a great time as the Bulls have been hampered with injuries to great players. The Bulls pulled together for a big win without their injured players against the Pacers but will be hard pressed to do that again tonight. Charlotte is 27-13 ATS off BB ATS losses and Chicago is 4-12 ATS off a SU win. When CHICAGO team played as a Home team - playing on Friday - with 1 day off - Coming off a Home win they are 2-9 ATS. When CHARLOTTE team Played as Road team as a Underdog - Vs Central opponent - After a non conference game - Scored 95 or less points FOR in their last game they are 8-2 ATS

TNT Holiday Hoops

Game Gauge: 4-6 L 10 (40%)

The game gauge shows my picks getting a little cooler of late but hopefully that will turn around with the tripleheader on TNT.

Detroit / Orlando over 192

I like this game to go over and quite easily. Orlando has an advantage down low that will allow them to score easy buckets and the same can be said for the guard play of the Pistons. This one has the potential to go down to the wire and that will allow for points with no clock movement.

When DETROIT team Played as Road team as a Favorite - Last 4 years - Coming off 1 under the over is 20-9-1



Miami +3.5



When is national television going to stop showing the Miami Heat? Shaq and Wade are marketable but come on already, they are almost a shoe in to miss the playoffs but they always show up on prime time. In defense of the Heat they are starting to play much better than when they started the season and Shaq looks young again. They know they have to win now if they want a shot at the last playoff spot so I will play on the home team to get the win.





When MIAMI team Played as Home team as a Underdog - After a conference game - Scored 85 or less points FOR in their last game they are 15-6 ATS



When CLEVELAND team played as a Road team - Before a conference game - After a non conference game - Coming off a Road win they are 2-8 ATS



Lakers -3.5



If the Lakers are going to cover against any team even with injuries it’s the Nuggets. They are exactly what the Dr. ordered in this case because they play a run n gun type of hoops and the big man game can be passed on and a good performance could still be the result!



When LA LAKERS team played as a -3.5 to -6.0 Home Favorite - Last 5 years - Coming off 1 under they are 11-4 ATS

Monday NBA

One Unit: Boston -11.5

The Celtics are going against Washington again after getting upset by them and get a quick shot at revenge. They won’t sleep walk into this one and will be ready to go.

When BOSTON team Played as Home team as a Favorite - with 1 day off - Scored 80 or less points FOR in their last game they are 8-2 ATS

Four Units: Milwaukee +10


Bet at Wagerweb


The Jazz are wrapping up a very successful home stand where they defeated talented teams like Phoenix and Orlando. The Bucks are ATS monsters of late cashing in on five straight and they finally have a healthy Redd back in the lineup. The Jazz will not be fired up to play this team since they dominate them at home and they have played tougher opposition of late. The Jazz have played off-key against these types of opponents, with a 10-21 ATS mark, when playing against a marginal losing team (Win Pct. 40% to 49%) over the last two seasons. Milwaukee plays in an abundance of shootouts since they rank 28th in field goal defense in the league and are 24-11 ATS after a game where both teams scored 105 points or more.

When UTAH team played as a Home team - During the month of January - with 1 day off - Coming off 1 ATS lost they are 1-9 ATS

Milwaukee: 30-13 ATS off a combined score of 215+ pointsUtah: 1-8 ATS off a combined score of 215+ points

Wednesday NBA

I really like the NBA card tonight so I am going to get right to it.

Bet at Wagerweb
One unit: Atlanta -2.5

The Cavs are red hot and own Atlanta and the Hawks have had problems winning of late and yet they are 2.5 point favorites? There is a reason for this as the Hawks will be motivated to play after leading the entire game last time out before blowing it late. This will get them to play the entire game wire to wire and get the win and the cover.

When ATLANTA team Played as Home team as a Favorite - playing on Wednesday - After a conference game - Coming off vs Eastern conference opponent they are 11-6 ATS

When CLEVELAND team Played as Road team as a Underdog - After a non conference game - Coming off 2 ATS win they are 4-14 ATS

Two Units: New York +5.5

I love to back an NBA team off a road win as an underdog like the Knicks are tonight. The Knicks have been bad against the number this year but I have done well when I have played them. Tonight I want the trend to continue.

When NEW YORK team played as a 3.5 to 6.0 Home Underdog - Before a conference game - Coming off 1 ATS win they are 7-3 ATS

When HOUSTON team played as a Road team - Before a non division game - Last 5 years - Coming off a 3 game winning streak they are 3-7 ATS

Houston: 4-16 ATS off 3+ SU wins

Miami / Milwaukee Over 189

The one thing the Heat have been doing successfully is not playing defense and they run into Milwaukee a team that plays equally as little defense. This one will reach 200+ giving us a double digit edge in this game.

Miami: 9-1 Over playing their 3rd game in 4 days

When MIAMI team played as a Road team - Last 4 years - Coming off 2 ATS lost the over is 11-5-1

When MILWAUKEE team played as a Home team - Before a non conference game - After a non division game - Coming off 2 game road stand the over is 11-3

Bet at Wagerweb
Three Units: Philly +8.5

The sixers have played with plenty of fire this year and have made a point of keeping games close against some decent talent in the east, and it looks like this line is off by a few points.

Philadelphia: 16-4 ATS off BB ATS losses
Toronto: 13-29 ATS off a home loss

When TORONTO team Played as Home team as a Favorite - Before a conference game - After a conference game - Coming off a Loss over Eastern Central opponent - Coming off a Home loss they are 3-8 ATS

When PHILADELPHIA team Played as Road team as a Underdog - Vs Division Opponent - Last 3 years - Coming off vs Eastern conference opponent they are 11-2 ATS

When PHILADELPHIA team Played as Road team as a Underdog - Last 4 years - Coming off a 4-7 point loss they are 10-3-1 ATS

Four Units: Portland -2

The Blazers are a good team and the secret is out so now you just have to find the right spot to play them and tonight is the one. The Warriors are off a overtime game against the spurs and should be in a tough spot trying to win in the rose garden. Portland: 7-0 ATS off division win

When PORTLAND team played as a Home team - Last 4 years - After a conference game - Coming off 1 game home stand they are 11-6 ATS
When GOLDEN STATE team played as a Road team - During the month of January - Coming off 1 ATS win they are 5-14 ATS

NBA
Small ticket tonight in the NBA but that does not mean there is nothing to take advantage of and make a profit on.

One Unit: Seattle / Phoenix Under 218

These teams play high tempo but they do not play a physical game that goes with it. The players will have no problem shooting jump shots all night and therefore less fouls and I don’t expect a high shooting percentage with this number. I’ll take the under. When ANY NBA Team played as a -12.5 to -15.0 Home Favorite - Vs Northwest opponent - Coming off 1 over the under is 18-9 (PHX)

Two Units: Bulls -3.5
At the start of the year we would have thought the Bulls would be head and shoulders above the Blazers but this young team has surprised and are playing at the same level. The bulls have a history of starting off slow and rebounding and they are starting to play tat a higher level and are better than the Blazers. At home they will rebound and take it to the Blazers. When PORTLAND team Played as Road team as a Underdog - before a division game - Last 4 years - Coming off vs Western conference opponent they are 4-10 ATS When CHICAGO team Played as Home team as a Favorite - Last 2 years - After a non division game - Coming off vs Eastern conference opponent they are 23-13 ATS

Three Units: Nuggets -2
The Spurs go to play Denver and the Nuggets will be looking to exact some revenge after a double digit loss on the road. In that loss to the Spurs the Nuggets were without Martin and Nene but tonight both return specifically for this game showing just how big it is. "Having as much post presence as we can have against the Spurs is needed," Denver small forward Carmelo Anthony said. "We've got everybody back now. I don't want to use that as an excuse (for the last game). But we're going to go out there and bring it, and I'm pretty sure they're going to bring it, too." The nuggets have circled this month and more importantly this month to make some noise. Watch it happen tonight.
