Friday November 14th

One Unit: Pistons +9.5

Detroit is 19-6 ATS after 2 consecutive covers as a favorite and is coming off a come from behind win. A.I. is already starting to gel with his new team and they should be ready to give the Lakers fits tonight. Detroit has thrived against Los Angeles, getting the cheddar at an 11-4-1 clip. Prior to Thursday's clash with the Warriors, the Pistons had cashed five of six on the road and six of seven against Western Conference competition. That improved after last night and they keep it close tonight.

Two Unit:

Denver +10

The Nuggets have cashed five of their last six when playing back-to-back. Boston is riding the crest of a six-game winning streak, though the defending champs have failed to get the green in three of four overall and four of five at TD Banknorth Garden. The Nuggets have cashed eight straight against Atlantic Division opponents. Denver is 35-64 ATS AWAY after having won 3 of their last 4 and they keep it close against the Celtics.

Three Units:

Charlotte +4.5

Its always dangerous backing a bad team like the Bobcats but this is more of a play against the jazz then with the Cats. The Jazz are road weary right now and looked bad against the Wizards and should have one eye on Cleveland as they sleep walk through another game tonight. This will be the third road game in four nights and if they lose this one a fade when they play their fourth game in five nights will be in order. The home team has cashed in the last four series clashes and the dog is 6-2 in the past eight. The Jazz are 4-10 ATS when facing Southeast Division competition.

UTAH is 8-21 ATS (-15.1 Units) in road games vs. poor teams outscored by 3+ PPG over L3 seasons. The average score was UTAH 101.6, OPPONENT 101.7 - (Rating = 1*)

I will take the Cats tonight.

Four Units: Dallas -1.5

Dallas is 26-34 ATS against Eastern Conference and need to start putting wins together now. The Magic are off an impressive win in blowout fashion while the Mavericks are off a loss against the Bulls. The Mavericks know they need to start winning at home now and the Friday Night small chalk have always been my favorite!

Carlisle is 18-6 ATS (+11.4 Units) at home vs. very good teams - outscoring foes by 6+ PPG as a Head Coach. The average score was Carlisle 95.9, OPPONENT 91.1 - (Rating = 1*)
