06-11-21	76ers v. Hawks +1.5	Top	127-111	Loss	-110	26 h 9 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks +1½ -110 The Hawks (+1.5) are worth a look as a slim home dog in Game 3 against the 76ers on Friday. Atlanta showed they are not overmatched in this series by taking Game 1 on the road. As you would expect the 76ers responded in Game 2, but I see no reason why the Hawks won't hold serve at home. Play the Hawks +1.5!
06-10-21	Nets v. Bucks -3	Top	83-86	Push	0	33 h 6 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -3 -104 The Bucks (-3) are worth a look as a small home favorite in Game 3 against the Nets on Thursday. Milwaukee is primed for a big bounce back performance after that embarrassing loss in Game 2. The series shifting to Milwaukee is definitely a big plus for the Bucks. Playing in front of the home fans should be a big boost for the role players. The Nets also figure to cool off a little offensively. Play the Bucks -3!
06-09-21	Nuggets v. Suns UNDER 223	Top	98-123	Win	100	12 h 11 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets vs Suns under 223 -113 The UNDER (223) is worth a look in Game 2 between the Nuggets and Suns on Wednesday. These two teams combined for 227 in Game 1 and that was with both teams shooting it well. Denver hit 47% from the field and the Suns shot 54.1%. Both teams will have a better understanding of what the other is trying to do offensively. I also don't think the Nuggets had the right defensive mindset in Game 1. Play the UNDER 223!
06-08-21	Hawks v. 76ers -5	Top	102-118	Win	100	33 h 40 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -5 -105 The 76ers (-5) are worth a look in Game 2 against the Hawks on Tuesday. Atlanta jumped all over Philly early in Game 1, as they shot lights out. Even though the Hawks were able to hold on for the win, I was impressed with how the 76ers came back in that game. I also love that Embiid was able to play. Philly will turn it up a notch to avoid going down 0-2 at home. Play the 76ers -5!
06-07-21	Bucks v. Nets UNDER 233.5	Top	86-125	Win	101	20 h 59 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks vs Nets under 233½ +101 The UNDER (223.5) is worth a look in Monday's NBA playoff action that has the Bucks visiting the Nets for Game 2 of their series. These two combined for just 222 points in Game 1 and that was with that ridiculous total of 240. Books have adjusted quite a bit not only from that game but also Brooklyn losing Harden. Still, I think the number here is way too high. As much fire-power that these two have offensively, they are really strong defensively. Play the UNDER 233.5!
06-06-21	Mavs +6.5 v. Clippers	Top	111-126	Loss	-110	32 h 26 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs +6½ -110 The Mavs (+6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced road dog in Game 7 at the Clippers. This series has been backwards from the start, as the road team has won each of the first 6 games. Why not make it 7? Either way I like the Mavs to keep it close. Dallas was right there with a chance to win in the 4th quarter in Game 6 and that was with Doncic not playing his best and Khawi going off for 45 on 18 of 25 shooting. Play the Mavs +6.5!
06-05-21	Bucks v. Nets -3.5	Top	107-115	Win	100	29 h 51 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -3½ -104 The Nets (-3.5) are worth a look as a slim home favorite in Game 1 of their series with the Bucks. This just feels like a discount to back Brooklyn. The Bucks are a great team, but the Nets are special with 3 of the best players in the game in Durant, Irving and Harden. I don't see them losing this series or any series for that matter. This line indicates these two would be close to a pick'em on a neutral floor. I'm not buying it. Play the Nets -3.5!
06-04-21	Clippers v. Mavs +2.5	Top	104-97	Loss	-102	28 h 11 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs +2½ -102 The Mavs (+2.5) are worth a look as a small home dog against the Clippers in Game 6 Friday night. Everyone is still saying the Clippers are the better team, but I disagree. Luka Doncic is the best player on the floor in this series and I think the home team finally wins one in this series and the Mavs advance. Play Dallas +2.5!
06-03-21	Suns v. Lakers OVER 207.5	Top	113-100	Win	100	33 h 19 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Suns vs Lakers over 207½ -103 The OVER (207.5) is worth a look in Game 6 on Thursday between the Lakers and Suns. I think we are going to see Phoenix score in that 110-115 range like they did in Game 5 at home. Key here is I see a big uptick offensively from LA at home in this one. I think the Lakers easily got to 100 and that should easily get us over this low mark. Play the OVER 207.5!
06-02-21	Wizards +7.5 v. 76ers	Top	112-129	Loss	-112	26 h 1 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards +7½ -112 The Wizards (+7.5) are worth a look as a near double-digit road dog against the 76ers in Game 5 of their first round series on Wednesday. It looked like this series was over after the 76ers went up 3-0, but a recent injury to Joel Embiid has given Washington life. Wizards might just pull off the unthinkable and win 3 in a row. Either way I like them to at least make a game of it tonight. Play the Wizards +7.5!
06-01-21	Lakers v. Suns -4	Top	85-115	Win	100	33 h 2 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -4 -111 The Suns (-4) are worth a look as a relatively small home favorite against the Lakers in Game 5 on Tuesday. This is just too good a price to pass up on Phoenix. Los Angeles will be without Anthony Davis and he's the one guy outside of LeBron they couldn't afford to lose. He's not only a huge loss offensively, but defensively too. Chris Paul and the Suns know now is the time to strike at home with the Lakers at less than 100%. Play Phoenix -4!
05-31-21	76ers -7.5 v. Wizards	Top	114-122	Loss	-107	25 h 8 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -7½ -107 The 76ers (-7.5) are worth a look as a big road favorite in Game 4 against the Wizards on Monday. This thing is over with. Washington has no answer for Philadelphia and I don't see them finding one with Russell Westbrook at less than 100%. Washington just doesn't matchup well. 76ers have scored at least 120 in all 3 games so far in the series and are shooting 54.5% from the field. Play Philadelphia -7.5!
05-30-21	Suns +7 v. Lakers	Top	100-92	Win	100	31 h 16 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Suns +7 -102 The Suns (+7) is worth a look as a decent sized road dog against the Lakers in Sunday's NBA action. Phoenix won Game 1, but has lost the last two. Not surprised to see LA respond with back-to-back wins to take back control of the series, but this feels like the spot for Phoenix to bounce back and at least make a game of it. You also have to factor in Anthony Davis being at less than 100% with a knee injury. Give me the Suns +7!
05-29-21	Bucks v. Heat +5	Top	120-103	Loss	-105	27 h 17 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Heat +5 -105 The Heat (+5) are worth a look as a home dog in Game 4 against the Bucks. I think most have written Miami off. So have I. They got not chance of coming back from a 3-0 deficit. With that said, I don't think this team goes down without a fight. They got to start making shots at some point. Will be interesting to see how the Bucks respond to losing starting guard Donte DiVincenzo. Perfect spot for Milwaukee to come out fat and happy and lose a game they shouldn't. Play the Heat +5!
05-28-21	Nets -7 v. Celtics	Top	119-125	Loss	-108	28 h 41 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -7 -108 The Nets (-7) are worth a look as a decently priced road favorite against the Celtics in Friday's NBA playoff action. Brooklyn played poorly and won Game 1 by double-digits. They absolutely dominated in Game 2. I just don't think Boston has the goods without Brown to win a game in this series. With the Nets defense on Tatum, they got to have everything go right just to keep it respectable. Brooklyn is just too good. Play the Nets -7!
05-26-21	Wizards +8.5 v. 76ers	Top	95-120	Loss	-106	20 h 2 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards +8½ -106 The Wizards (+8.5) are worth a look as a near double-digit road dog in Game 2 Wednesday against the 76ers. Washington lost Game 1 by only 7 points 118-125 and keep in mind that was with the Wizards only on a couple days of rest after clinching the No. 8 seed with a win over the Pacers. Washington actually out shot the 76ers in Game 1, as they hit 56% from the field compared to Philly's 49.5%. If the Wizards can just take a little better care of the ball, they could win this game outright. Play Washington +8.5!
05-25-21	Mavs +6.5 v. Clippers	Top	127-121	Win	100	24 h 20 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs +6½ -107 The Mavs (+6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced road dog against the Clippers in Game 2. This is a great price to get Dallas at. The Mavs showed they more than match up with LA after taking Game 1 by double-digits 113-103. I'm not saying Dallas is going up 2-0, but to think it's just going to be a blowout the other way is wrong. Mavs at worse keep this thing close. Play Dallas +6.5!
05-24-21	Heat v. Bucks -4.5	Top	98-132	Win	100	22 h 45 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -4½ -104 The Bucks (-4.5) are worth a look here as small home favorite against the Heat in Game 2 of their First Round matchup on Monday. Milwaukee won Game 1 109-107 in OT. I think the Bucks are going to be a little more locked in after nearly losing the series opener. As for Miami, I think they could have a hard time bouncing back from such a gut wrenching loss. Give me the Bucks -4.5!
05-23-21	Wizards v. 76ers UNDER 229.5	Top	118-125	Loss	-105	26 h 19 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards vs 76ers under 229½ -105
05-22-21	Mavs v. Clippers OVER 218.5	Top	113-103	Loss	-100	28 h 59 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs vs Clippers over 218½ +101 The OVER (218.5) is worth a look in Game 1 of Saturday's Western Conference Playoff action. While the defensive intensity definitely picks up in the postseason, the total here is just too low for the offensive talent on hand in this game. The Clippers are No. 2 in the NBA in offensive efficiency and the Mavs are 9th. This total should be closer 225 than 215. Play the OVER 218.5!
05-21-21	Grizzlies v. Warriors OVER 220.5	Top	117-112	Win	100	30 h 2 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies vs Warriors over 220½ -110 The OVER (220.5) is worth a look in Friday's Western Conference Play-In matchup between the Warriors and Grizzlies. I just think the total here is too low. Golden State doesn't match up as well defensively with Memphis as they did the Lakers. Grizzlies are also no where close to as strong defensively as what the Warriors just saw in LA. Play the OVER 220.5!
05-20-21	Pacers v. Wizards UNDER 239.5	Top	115-142	Loss	-110	30 h 53 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Pacers vs Wizards under 239½ -110 The UNDER (239.5) is worth a look in Thursday's play-in matchup out of the Eastern Conference between the Wizards and Pacers for the right to the No. 8 seed and first round matchup with the 76ers. Too much emphasis here on what these two teams have done in the regular-season and Indiana going crazy with 144 points in Tuesday's game against the Hornets. Washington is a better defensive team than the numbers show. This total is just too high for this winner takes all matchup. Play the UNDER 239.5!
05-19-21	Warriors +5 v. Lakers	Top	100-103	Win	100	31 h 36 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors +5 -114 The Warriors (+5) are worth a look as a small dog against the Lakers in Wednesday's NBA Play-In matchup. Most are going to just back the Lakers in this spot, but with how well Steph Curry is playing and LeBron James at less than 100% with that bum ankle, Golden State can win this game. Either way I like them to keep it extremely close. Play the Warriors +5!
05-18-21	Hornets +3.5 v. Pacers	Top	117-144	Loss	-109	32 h 21 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Hornets +3½ -109 The Hornets (+3.5) are worth a look as a small road dog against the Pacers in Tuesday's 9/10 Play-In matchup. I just don't trust this Pacers team given the injuries they were dealt. The biggest loss being big man Myles Turner. They also could be without Malcolm Brogdon, while several others are expected to play at less than full strength. Hornets simply have the deeper and more talented team. Play Charlotte +3.5!
05-15-21	Celtics v. Wolves -1.5	Top	124-108	Loss	-110	7 h 40 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Wolves -1½ -110 The Timberwolves (-1.5) are worth a look here as a small home favorite against the Celtics. There's zero motivation here for Boston, who is locked into the No. 7 seed. All the Celtics focus is on getting their key guys rested up for the play-in tournament next week. T-Wolves should be a much bigger favorite here. Play Minnesota -1.5!
05-14-21	Nuggets -9.5 v. Pistons	Top	104-91	Win	100	13 h 3 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets -9½ -110 The Nuggets (-9.5) are worth a look here as a big road favorite against the Pistons in Friday's NBA action. Denver is the only team with something to play for here, as they are just 1-game back of the Clippers for the No. 3 spot in the Western Conference. Pistons are way out of it. Detroit is 2-9 SU and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games, having lost and failed to cover each of their last 3. Play the Nuggets -9.5!
05-12-21	Wizards +7 v. Hawks	Top	116-120	Win	100	17 h 12 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards +7 -110 The Wizards(+7) are worth a look here as a decently priced road dog against the Hawks in Wednesday's NBA action. Washington may be without Beal, but they didn't have him on Monday when they covered easy as a 8-point dog in a mere 1-point loss to these same Hawks. I not only think the Wizards cover, but I think they win this one outright. Play Washington +7!
05-11-21	Nets v. Bulls +5.5	Top	115-107	Loss	-110	22 h 7 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Bulls +5½ -110 The Bulls (+5.5) are worth a look here as a relatively small home dog against the Nets in Tuesday's NBA action. Betting public is going to be all over Brooklyn in this one, but I see the value being with Chicago. The Bulls are fighting for their playoff lives and playing with some serious confidence. Chicago has won and covered each of their last 3 games, winning all 3 by double-digits. Nets are the better team, but it just feels like Brooklyn is looking ahead to the postseason and not all that interested in these last few games. Play the Bulls +5.5!
05-10-21	Pacers -6 v. Cavs		111-102	Win	100	12 h 57 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Pacers -6 -110 The Pacers (-6) are worth a look as a modest road favorite against the Cavs. Indiana has had their struggles in the 2nd Half, but this is not only a mismatch in talent but also motivation. Pacers are clinging on to the 10th and final spot in the Eastern Conference. Cleveland threw in the towel on this season a long time ago and have shown no interest in competing down the stretch. Indiana should roll to a double-digit win here. Play the Pacers -6!
05-10-21	Wizards v. Hawks -6.5	Top	124-125	Loss	-110	13 h 58 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks -6½ -110 The Hawks (-6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced home favorite against the Wizards. Washington has been on an incredible run, but this looks like an awful spot for Washington. The Wizards will not only be playing this one without Bradley Beal, this will be their 4th road game in 6 days. Atlanta on the other hand is as fresh as any team off a full 3 days of rest. Hawks still have plenty to play for, as they fight for the No. 4 seed. Play the Hawks -6.5!
05-09-21	Thunder v. Kings -9.5	Top	98-126	Win	100	23 h 31 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Kings -9½ -110 The Kings (-9.5) are worth a look here as a big home favorite against the Thunder in Sunday's NBA action. Laying a big number like this on a team like the Kings who are out of the playoff picture can be difficult. The thing is, OKC is just that bad. Thunder have scored fewer than 100 points in 5 of their last 6. Kings have allowed under 100 in 3 of their last 4. OKC is also giving up 126.4 ppg over their last 5. Time for the Kings to have some fun and win this game going away. Play Sacramento -9.5!
05-06-21	Lakers v. Clippers -7.5	Top	94-118	Win	100	22 h 48 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Clippers -7½ -110 The Clippers (-7.5) are worth a look as a home favorite against the Lakers in Thursday's NBA action. With LeBron downgraded to out, the Lakers are in a really tough spot here. Not only are they missing LeBron, but Dennis Schroder is also out and Horton-Tucker is questionable. There's plenty of motivation for the Clippers to take advantage of the short-handed Lakers. That's because the Lakers sit tied with the Mavs for 5th place. Clippers are currently 4th. A win could increase the chances that the Clippers won't have to play the Lakers in the 1st round. It also could play a role in moving the Lakers down to No. 7 and into the play-in tournament. Play the Clippers -7.5!
05-05-21	Suns -1.5 v. Hawks	Top	103-135	Loss	-112	19 h 12 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -1½ -112 The Suns (-1.5) are worth a look here at basically a pick'em on the road against the Hawks. Phoenix might be on no rest after playing an OT game last night at Cleveland, but I think that's been baked into the number. This is still an exceptional price to get the Suns. They are easily the better team and every win is huge to them, as they fight for the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference. Play the Suns -1.5!
05-04-21	Nets +2 v. Bucks	Top	118-124	Loss	-110	12 h 40 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nets +2 -110 The Nets (+2) are worth a look here as a small road dog against the Nets in Tuesday's NBA action. Brooklyn should be locked in here after two straight losses, including a loss to these same Bucks in Milwaukee on Sunday. A game they just barely loss 114-117, despite only shooting 43% and the Bucks shooting 49%. Nets get their revenge and win this one easy. Play Brooklyn +2!
05-03-21	Knicks v. Grizzlies -2.5	Top	118-104	Loss	-112	22 h 6 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies -2½ -112 The Grizzlies (-2.5) are worth a look here as a slim home favorite against the Knicks in Monday's NBA action. Knicks have been great for weeks now, but I believe it has them overvalued here against a Grizzlies team that has also been on a late season surge. I also think it's a really good spot to back Memphis coming off that ugly loss to Orlando, where they just didn't show up with the right mindset or energy. Grizzlies will be 100% locked in for this one, as they need every win they can get down the stretch to make the playoffs. Play the Grizzlies -2.5!
05-02-21	Knicks -8 v. Rockets	Top	122-97	Win	100	21 h 37 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Knicks -8 -110 The Knicks (-8) are worth a look here as a decently priced road favorite against Houston. The Rockets are in a complete free fall, while New York is playing as well as any team in the league right now. I just don't see Houston keeping this one close, as they are on no rest after a game last night against Golden State. Knicks on the other hand have had the last three days off. Play New York -8!
04-28-21	Blazers +2.5 v. Grizzlies	Top	130-109	Win	100	22 h 19 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Blazers +2½ -109 The Blazers (+2.5) are worth a look here as a small road dog against the Grizzlies in Wednesday's NBA action. Portland got the monkey off their back, snapping their 5-game losing streak with a 133-112 win at Indiana last night. Most will look to fade the Blazers here on no rest against a good Memphis team, but I see Portland building off that win and taking down the Grizzlies tonight. Play the Blazers +2.5!
04-27-21	Mavs v. Warriors -0.5	Top	133-103	Loss	-110	13 h 54 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors -0½ -110 I'm going to take the Warriors (-0.5) as a slim home favorite against the Mavs in Tuesday's NBA action. This is just too good a price to pass up on Golden State at home. Steph Curry has put this team on his back with some of his best basketball of his career. Warriors have won 7 of their last 9 with 4 in a row at home. Mavs just aren't playing great basketball right now. Play the Warriors -0.5!
04-26-21	Suns v. Knicks +2	Top	118-110	Loss	-110	23 h 49 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Knicks +2 -110 The Knicks (+2) are worth a look as a home dog against the Suns in Monday's NBA action. This isn't about New York being the better team, but there's no reason the Knicks should be a dog at home in this spot. Not with how well they are playing right now. Especially not with the Suns being in their 5th straight road game on no rest after playing the Nets last night, which followed 3 huge games at Milwaukee, Philly and Boston. Phoenix has to be running on fumes right now. Play the Knicks +2!
04-25-21	Celtics v. Hornets UNDER 216.5	Top	104-125	Loss	-109	6 h 3 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics vs Hornets under 216½ -109 The UNDER (216.5) is worth a look in Sunday's NBA matchup that has the Celtics visiting the Hornets. I just don't see either team having a lot of energy for this game. Boston just played a back-to-back where they hosted the Suns on Thursday and were at the Nets on Friday. Charlotte has really been lost offensively without Hayward, Monk and Ball. Play the UNDER 216.5!
04-22-21	Suns v. Celtics +6.5	Top	86-99	Win	100	12 h 58 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics +6½ -114 The Celtics (+6.5) are worth a look here as a home dog against the Suns in Thursday's NBA action. Good spot here to fade the Suns, who have to be running on fumes after a 128-127 win at Milwaukee on Monday and 116-113 win at the 76ers last night. Boston does come in off an ugly home loss to the Bulls, but had won 6 straight prior to that setback. This is just too many points for the Celtics to be catching at home in this spot. Play Boston +6.5!
04-21-21	Warriors -2 v. Wizards	Top	114-118	Loss	-105	27 h 24 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors -2 -105 The Warriors (-2) are worth a look here as a slim road favorite against the Wizards. Both teams come in playing great, but I just think Golden State is without a doubt the better team and the Warriors are going to want revenge from a recent 107-110 home loss to Washington. Steph Curry is also on fire right now. As long as he's playing like he is, the Warriors should continue to play well. Play the Warriors -2!
04-20-21	Clippers -8.5 v. Blazers	Top	113-112	Loss	-110	14 h 52 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Clippers -8½ -110 The Clippers (-8.5) are worth a look as a big home road favorite against the Blazers in Tuesday's NBA action. With LA playing arguably their best basketball of the season right now and Portland playing this game not only without the services of Damian Lillard, but also Jusuf Nurkic, I don't see the Blazers being able to keep this close. Play the Clippers -8.5!
04-19-21	Grizzlies +6.5 v. Nuggets	Top	137-139	Win	100	24 h 55 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies +6½ -110 The Grizzlies (+6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced road dog against the Nuggets in Monday's NBA action. I don't know what the Grizzlies have to do to get some respect from the books. Memphis has covered 4 straight and are a ridiculous 14-3 ATS in their last 17 games. Denver has been playing well, but this is just too many points for them to be laying here. Play Memphis +6.5!
04-19-21	Suns +3.5 v. Bucks		128-127	Win	100	22 h 22 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Suns +3½ -109 The Suns (+3.5) are worth a look here as a small road dog against the Bucks in Monday's NBA action. Books are begging for you to lay the short number with Milwaukee, especially with Phoenix coming off an ugly 85-111 loss at home to the Spurs as a 12-point favorite. Thing is, that's just one bad game for the Suns, who are 14-3 SU in their last 17 games. Phoenix will be locked back in for this game. Suns are 10-2 ATS last 12 off an upset loss as a favorite and 16-4 in their last 20 off a game they failed to cover. Play Phoenix +3.5!
04-18-21	Nets -6 v. Heat	Top	107-109	Loss	-110	19 h 46 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -6 -110 The Nets (-6) are worth a look on the road against the Heat in Sunday's NBA action. These two teams played once already this season and Brooklyn won 98-85 in a defensive battle. With Durant and Irving available for this one, I don't see the Heat putting up much of a fight, especially if Jimmy Butler (Questionable) is unable to play. Miami also comes in not playing great, as they have lost 3 straight, failing to cover all 3. Play the Nets -6!
04-16-21	Blazers -1.5 v. Spurs	Top	107-106	Loss	-105	28 h 31 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Blazers -1½ -105 The Blazers (-1.5) are worth a look as a small road favorite against the Spurs in Friday's NBA action. I think we are getting a great price here on Portland due to the fact that they come in having lost 4 of 5. I just trust the Blazers to figure this out and it's not like San Antonio is playing great. Spurs are just 2-6 over their last 8 games and just lost outright as a 5-point favorite at Toronto, who was missing several key players. Play the Blazers -1.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs -1½ -105 The Mavs (-1.5) are worth a look here at basically a pick'em on the road against the Grizzlies in Wednesday's NBA action. Dallas will be highly motivated here after losing their last two and I think they will have no problem securing a victory against Memphis. Mavs are 18-6 ATS in this spot as a road favorite of 6 or less. They are also 30-18 ATS last 48 on the road with a total of 220 or more more. Play the OVER -1.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Heat +3½ -100 The Heat (+3.5) are worth a look here as a small road dog against the Suns in Tuesday's NBA action. Miami is playing some of their best basketball of the season right now. The Heat have won two straight and 6 of 7 overall. While Phoenix has been rolling, this is not an ideal spot for them, as they will be on no rest, playing their 3rd game in 4 nights and 5th in the last 7 days. Play the Heat +3.5!
04-12-21	Spurs v. Magic +6	Top	120-97	Loss	-110	27 h 16 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Magic +6 -110 The Magic (+6) are worth a look as a home dog against the Spurs in Monday's NBA action. I think we are getting some good value here on Orlando, as they should be highly motivated after getting embarrassed last time out 124-87 at home by the Bucks. On the flip side, San Antonio is primed for a letdown after a hard fought win at Dallas last night. Play the Magic +6!
04-11-21	Bulls -4.5 v. Wolves	Top	117-121	Loss	-105	28 h 34 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Bulls -4½ -105 The Bulls (-4.5) are worth a look here as a slim road favorite against the Timberwolves in Sunday's NBA action. Chicago comes in off a loss and failed cover in a 108-120 setback at Atlanta on Friday. That was just a mere hiccup in the road for this Bulls team, which had gone 3-2 SU and 5-0 ATS in their previous 5 games. Minnesota has lost 4 of 5 and have allowed 140+ points in each of their last 2 games. Timberwolves could have a tough time getting up here with their next 3 games against the Nets, Bucks and Heat. Play Chicago -4.5!
04-09-21	Wizards v. Warriors -4.5	Top	110-107	Loss	-105	30 h 16 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors -4½ -105 The Warriors (-4.5) are worth a look as a short home favorite against the Wizards in Friday's NBA action. With Steph Curry back healthy, the Warriors are primed to go on a little run and no better way to start a winning streak than to knock off the Bucks at home in their last game. Washington also comes in off a 131-116 win, but that was against a tanking Magic team. Wizards had lost 4 straight prior to that win. I also think this is a big flat spot for Washington playing their 3rd straight on the road going from two games in Florida against the Raptors and Magic to flying way out west for a game at Golden State. Play the Warriors -4.5!
04-09-21	Grizzlies v. Knicks +2		129-133	Win	100	23 h 34 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Knicks +2 -109 The Knicks (+2) are worth a look as a small home dog against the Grizzlies in Friday's NBA action. This line screams take Memphis. The Grizzlies come in having won 4 straight and are on a ridiculous 10-1 ATS run. Books clearly don't think Memphis is going to show up with their "A" Game in this one and I agree. This is a tough spot for the Grizzlies in what will be the final stop on their 4-game road trip and a big step down in competition after playing the 76ers, Heat and Hawks the last 3. Knicks are just 1-5 SU in their last 6, but have covered 3 straight. Play New York +2!
04-07-21	Hornets v. Thunder +4.5	Top	113-102	Loss	-100	26 h 21 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Thunder +4½ -100 The Thunder (+4.5) are worth a look here as a short home dog against the Hornets in Wednesday's NBA action. I know it's been rough for OKC of late, but this is a game they could and should win against a depleted Charlotte team that is playing right now without Gordon Hayward, Malik Monk and star rookie LaMelo Ball. In their last game the Hornets lost by 30 on the road to the Celtics. Hard to see a big improvement given the injuries and this being their 5th straight on the road. Play the Thunder +4.5!
04-06-21	Grizzlies +4.5 v. Heat	Top	124-112	Win	100	28 h 27 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies +4½ -100 The Grizzlies (+4.5) are worth a look as a road dog against the Heat in Tuesday's NBA action. While Miami has won and covered 4 straight, the level of competition during this stretch was not that challenging. Heat were also showing some value in those games as they had previously lost 6 straight. I just think the price here is a little steep for Miami given how well Memphis is playing. The Grizzlies are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games. While they are just 5-3 SU in his stretch, all 3 losses came against the league's best team in the Jazz. Play Memphis +4.5!
04-05-21	Baylor +4.5 v. Gonzaga	Top	86-70	Win	100	22 h 50 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Baylor +4½ -108 Baylor (+4.5) is worth a look in Monday's National Championship Game against Gonzaga. I not only think the Bears cover the 4.5, but I like them to win the game outright. We saw Gonzaga really struggle against UCLA in the Final Four and the Bears are a much better version of the Bruins. Unlike UCLA, who really relied a ton on one guy, Baylor has a bunch of guys who can cause problems offensively. Play the Bears +4.5!
04-02-21	Lakers v. Kings -4		115-94	Loss	-105	31 h 46 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Kings -4 -105 The Kings (-4) are worth a look here as a short home favorite against the Lakers in Friday's NBA action. It's crazy how much respect the Lakers get playing without both LeBron James and Anthony Davis. No surprise that the way overpriced Lakers have gone just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games. I think they should be a much bigger dog here against a surging Kings team that has gone 7-2 SU and 6-3 ATS over their last 9 games. Play Sacramento -4!
04-02-21	Wolves v. Grizzlies -6.5	Top	108-120	Win	100	29 h 52 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies -6½ -105 The Grizzlies (-6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced home favorite against the Timberwolves in Friday's NBA action. Memphis has lost 3 of 4, but all 3 of those defeats came against the Jazz, who own the best record in the league. Those are the Grizzlies only 3 losses in their last 7 games and they are 6-1 ATS during this stretch. Look for Memphis to make easy work here of a bad Minnesota team. Play the Grizzlies -6.5!
03-31-21	Bucks v. Lakers +8.5		112-97	Loss	-105	28 h 34 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Lakers +8½ -105 The Lakers (+8.5) are worth a look as a big home dog against the Bucks. The perception here is that LA has no shot against a team like Milwaukee while LeBron and AD are both sidelined. Thing is the Bucks aren't playing that great right now. Milwaukee has lost 3 straight. They are also playing their 4th game in 6 days and second straight on the road. LA will also be getting some reinforcements for this game, as big man Andre Drummond will be making his debut. I don't know if it's enough to win, but I like them to keep it close. Play the Lakers +8.5!
03-31-21	Knicks v. Wolves +3.5		101-102	Win	100	26 h 36 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Wolves +3½ -105 The Timberwolves (+3.5) are worth a look as a home dog against the Knicks in Wednesday's NBA action. I know Minnesota has lost 5 of their last 6, but this is a team that has been playing much better since the All-Star break. I also think the Knicks got no business being a road favorite with the way they are struggling to score the basketball. New York has scored 106 or fewer points in 6 of their last 7 games, which is truly awful in this day and age of the NBA. Play the Timberwolves +3.5!
03-31-21	Jazz -7.5 v. Grizzlies	Top	111-107	Loss	-105	26 h 36 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -7½ -105 The Jazz (-7.5) are worth a look as a road favorite against Memphis in Wednesday's NBA action. Utah is going to be without Donovan Mitchell for this game, but I don't think it's going to stop them from winning this by double-digits. Utah has led by 20 or more points in each of their last 5 games. They also look to be catching Memphis a little short-handed. Grizzlies won't have Justise Winslow and good chance they will also be without Grayson Allen. Play the Jazz -7.5
03-30-21	76ers v. Nuggets -4.5	Top	95-104	Win	100	14 h 46 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets -4½ -107 The Nuggets (-4.5) are worth a look as a slim home favorite against the 76ers. Denver crushed the Hawks 126-102 in the debut of Aaron Gordon. He's a really good fit on this team and can really impact the game right away without having to score a ton. As for Philadelphia, they are in a tough spot here. The 76ers are still without Embiid and are playing their 5th straight on the road. A trip that started in New York before flying out west. Play Denver -4.5!
03-30-21	USC v. Gonzaga UNDER 154.5	Top	66-85	Win	100	33 h 14 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on USC vs Gonzaga under 154½ -110 The UNDER (154.5) is worth a look in Tuesday's Elite 8 matchup between Gonzaga and USC. These two have both been impressive offensively in the NCAA Tournament. In USC's 3 games they are averaging 79.7 ppg and Gonzaga is way up there at 89.3 ppg. It will have a lot a people looking to take the over. What people are overlooking is how good these two teams have been defensively. Both have held each of their 3 opponents under 70 points. Both rank in the Top 10 in the country in defensive efficiency and few teams make their opponents work harder to get a shot than USC. Their opponents average poss length is 18.3, which is the 338th longest mark (out of 357 teams). Play the UNDER 154.5!
03-29-21	Arkansas v. Baylor -7	Top	72-81	Win	100	33 h 31 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Baylor -7 -107 Baylor (-7) is worth a look in Monday's Elite 8 matchup against Arkansas. It's been a great run for the Razorbacks, but it's not exactly been the toughest road to the Elite 8 with wins over Colgate, Texas Tech and Oral Roberts. Baylor is simply on a different level than Arkansas. We just saw the Bears beat in a better team than Arkansas in Villanova by 11 in their last game. I look for Baylor to easily win here by double-digits. Play Baylor -7!
03-29-21	Raptors v. Pistons UNDER 219		104-118	Loss	-109	14 h 7 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Raptors vs Pistons under 219 -109 The UNDER (219) is worth a look in Monday's NBA action that has the Raptors visiting the Pistons. Detroit is a huge UNDER team with their lackluster offense, which has really been struggling of late. Pistons are averaging a mere 102.6 ppg over their last 5 and are shooting just 44% from the field during this stretch. Because they play at a slow pace, they also don't give up a lot of points. With Toronto not figuring to be pushing the tempo in the 2nd of a back-to-back and 3rd game in 4 days, this should stay well below the mark. Play the UNDER 219!
03-29-21	Pelicans v. Celtics -4	Top	115-109	Loss	-104	19 h 7 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics -4 -104 The Celtics (-4) are worth a look as a slim home favorite against the Pelicans in Monday's NBA action. I know there's a couple key guys in question for Boston, but this is just too good a price to pass up. New Orleans has been playing well here of late, but they are just 6-14 SU on the road this season and are a mere 4-11-2 ATS last 17 road games vs a team that's won more than 60% of their home games. Play Boston -4!
03-28-21	Louisiana Tech +1 v. Colorado State	Top	76-74	Win	100	15 h 39 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Louisiana Tech +1 -108 Bet Louisiana Tech (+1) in Sunday's NIT Consolation (3rd Place Game) matchup with Colorado State. Colorado State won their first two games in the NIT Buffalo and NC State, but were then annihilated by 23 to Memphis in the Semifinals. It didn't go much better for La Tech, who lost by 22 to Mississippi St. I just see the Rams as the bigger frauds in this showdown. The MWC has really looked poor in postseason play. Bet the Bulldogs +1!
03-28-21	Suns -6 v. Hornets	Top	101-97	Loss	-105	15 h 34 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Suns -6 -105 Bet the Suns (-6) at home against the Hornets on Sunday. Phoenix might be the most underrated/disrespected team in the league right now. The Suns are 22-6 SU over their last 28 games. A team playing this well should be overvalued and struggling to cover inflated lines, but that's not the case. Phoenix is the exact same 22-6 ATS during this run. Charlotte has won and covered 3 straight, but will struggle to keep playing with rookie LaMelo Ball sidelined. Bet the Suns -6!
03-27-21	Grizzlies v. Jazz -10	Top	110-126	Win	100	30 h 34 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -10 -105 This play is on the Utah Jazz (-10) at home against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Jazz failed to cover at home last night against these Grizzlies, winning by a final of 117-114 as a very similarly priced favorite. Utah was up 16 at the half in that game and just didn't come out very strong in the 2nd half. They are still 15-5 ATS at home this season and have covered 9 of their last 10 at home against teams who shoot 46% or better from the field. Play the Jazz -10!
03-27-21	Memphis v. Colorado State UNDER 143.5	Top	90-67	Loss	-108	33 h 18 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Memphis vs Colorado State under 143½ -108 The UNDER (143.5) is worth a look in Saturday's NIT Semifinal showdown between Memphis and Colorado State. The UNDER is 8-2 in Memphis' last 10 games and 11-4 in 15 road games this season. UNDER is also 8-2 in Colorado State's last 10 games. These two teams scoring averages are 71.5 and 74.3, which is 145.8 ppg, just past the number. However, defensively they give up 62.5 and 65.6, which is just 127.8 ppg. Play the UNDER 143.5!
03-26-21	Grizzlies v. Jazz OVER 227.5		114-117	Win	103	24 h 18 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies vs Jazz over 227½ +103 The OVER (227.5) is worth a look in Friday's NBA action between the Jazz and Grizzlies. Two really good offenses facing off in this one and I just feel they will have no problem reaching 230 points in this game. Memphis is averaging 114.9 ppg on the road, while Utah is scoring 117.8 ppg at home. Utah has scored at least 115 points in each of their last 6 games and 10 of their last 11. Grizzlies have scored 111 or more in each of their last 3. Play the OVER 227.5!
03-26-21	Grizzlies v. Jazz -9.5		114-117	Loss	-109	22 h 58 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -9½ -109 The Jazz (-9.5) are worth a as a big home favorite against the Grizzlies in Friday's NBA action. Utah should have no problem winning this game by double-digits. In their last two games the Jazz have made easy work of Chicago and Brooklyn. They took down the Bulls 120-95 and the Nets 118-88. We know when this team gets going they can be almost unstoppable. Grizzlies won't be able to keep pace. Play the Jazz -9.5!
03-26-21	Pacers v. Mavs -4.5	Top	109-94	Loss	-105	27 h 43 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs -4½ -105 The Mavs (-4.5) are worth a look here as a slim home favorite against the Pacers in Friday's NBA action. This is just too good a price to pass up with Dallas at home. Mavs have really been playing well over the last month. They have won 10 of their last 14, including two straight. Indiana has won 3 of 4, but also lost by 27 to the Bucks during this stretch. I also feel rest could be a big factor in this one. Pacers will be playing their 4th game in 6 days (travel between each game), while Dallas is playing only their 2nd game in 5 days. Give me the Mavs -4.5!
03-25-21	NC State v. Colorado State	Top	61-65	Loss	-110	32 h 23 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on NC State PK -110 NC State (PK) is worth a look as a pick'em against Colorado State in Thursday's Quarterfinal action in the NIT. I just feel the books have completely missed the mark on this game. Colorado State got a top seed in the NIT for what they did in the MWC this year, but after watching the conferences top two teams, San Diego State and Utah State, both lose by double-digits in the 1st round of the NCAA Tournament, you have to wonder if that conference wasn't as good as people thought. I definitely don't think the Rams are on the same level of the Wolfpack. NC State is red-hot having won 6 of 7 with the only loss to Syracuse in the ACC Tournament. Play the Wolfpack PK!
03-24-21	Cavs v. Bulls -5.5		103-94	Loss	-105	27 h 27 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Bulls -5½ -105 The Bulls (-5.5) are worth a look here as a pretty small home favorite against the Cavs in Wednesday's NBA action. I get the records of these two teams aren't all that different, but there's no question who the better team is. Chicago simply has underachieved. Either way, I think the Bulls are showing value here off that 25-point home loss to the Jazz. Cleveland is a team Chicago should beat by double-digits on their home floor. Play the Bulls -5.5!
03-24-21	Mavs v. Wolves +8	Top	128-108	Loss	-105	27 h 27 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Wolves +8 -105 The Wolves (+8) are worth a look as a near double-digit home dog against the Mavs in Wednesday's NBA action. While Minnesota has failed to cover their last two and three of their last four, I like the spot and the value here. Mavs could have a hard time getting up for this game. They are coming off a 40-point blowout win over the Blazers on Sunday. Getting two days off on the road isn't as nice as it sounds with how limited players are with what they can do because of Covid. Add in the Timberwolves not being a team that really gets the juices flowing and it adds up to a game that the Mavs might not show up at all and lose outright. Either way I like the Timberwolves to keep it within the number. Play Minnesota +8!
03-23-21	Nets v. Blazers -1.5		116-112	Loss	-110	15 h 51 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Blazers -1½ -110 The Blazers (-1.5) are worth a look here as a small home favorite against the Nets in Tuesday's NBA action. Portland is going to be ready for this one after getting destroyed by 40 points in Sunday's 92-132 loss to the Mavs. I like their chances of rebounding, as the Blazers had won 7- of their previous 9. They are also going to be facing the Nets without Irving or Durant and possibly Harden. Play the Blazers -1.5!
03-23-21	Nuggets v. Magic UNDER 218	Top	110-99	Win	100	22 h 28 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets vs Magic under 218 -109 The UNDER (218) is worth a look in Tuesday's NBA action between the Orlando Magic and the Denver Nuggets. I just don't see these two teams sniffing 220 points, especially with how bad the Magic are struggling offensively. Orlando has scored fewer than 100 points in 4 of their last 5 games. It also helps that the Magic are defending, they are only giving up 105 ppg on 44.5% shooting in their last 5. Denver is a good offensive team, but only the Knicks play at a slower pace. Play the UNDER 218!
03-22-21	Hawks +6.5 v. Clippers	Top	110-119	Loss	-105	30 h 19 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks +6½ -105 The Hawks (+6.5) are worth a look here as a decently priced road dog against the Clippers in Monday's NBA action. Atlanta is rolling right now. The Hawks have won 8 straight games, knocking off the Lakers 99-94 as a 3.5-point dog in their last game. Atlanta is 7-1 ATS during this run. With how inconsistent the Clippers have been, I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Hawks didn't win this game outright. Play Atlanta +6.5!
03-22-21	Ohio +6 v. Creighton	Top	58-72	Loss	-110	39 h 27 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Ohio +6 -110 The Bobcats (+6) are worth a look as they take on Creighton in the Round of 32 on Monday. Ohio pulled off a big upset, taking down Virginia 62-58 on Saturday. Some might see that as a fluke, but it's not. This Ohio team only lost by 2 on the road to Illinois in non-conference. I also don't like what I've seen out of this Creighton team since their head coach Greg McDermott made those plantation remarks to his players. I just don't think they are 100% all on the same page. Good chance the Bobcats win outright. Play Ohio +6!
03-21-21	Bulls -3 v. Pistons	Top	100-86	Win	100	25 h 16 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Bulls -3 -101 The Bulls (-3) are worth a look here as a slim road favorite over the Pistons in Sunday's NBA action. Just too good a price here with Chicago, as they are undervalued off back-to-back losses, while Detroit is way overvalued after back-to-back wins. There's also just something about being on the road for the Bulls, as they are 13-4 ATS this season away from home. Pistons are 3-12 ATS last 15 after scoring 110 or more in 2 straight games and 3-13 ATS last 16 off back-to-back covers. Play the Bulls -3!

20* SHARP PLAY on Wisconsin +6½ -110 The Badgers (+6.5) are worth a look as a decently priced dog against Baylor. I just don't think the gap here is as big as what people think. The Bears have also not looked the same since that long covid break they had in February. Wisconsin was outstanding in their win over North Carolina and if they shoot anything like they did against the Tar Heels from deep (13 of 27), they are going to give Baylor all they can handle. Play Wisconsin +6.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Kings +7 -105 The Kings (+7) are worth a look as a big road dog against the 76ers in Saturday's NBA action. Philadelphia has been rolling, but did have their 6-game losing streak snapped in a 105-109 OT loss at home to the Bucks. I just wonder with Embiid still out and now Seth Curry sidelined, if the 76ers aren't primed for a big letdown here against a bad but hungry Kings team that has won their last 2 games. I like Sacramento to keep it close. Play the Kings +7!
03-20-21	Dayton +4.5 v. Memphis	Top	60-71	Loss	-108	33 h 20 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Dayton +4½ -108 Dayton (+4.5) is worth a look as they take on Memphis this Saturday in First Round action out of the NIT. I just think the Tigers are getting a little too much respect here. Memphis didn't sign all those big recruits to play in the NIT. I just wonder how motivated the Tigers are going to be. Plus, I don't think there's a whole lot that separates these two teams. Dayton is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 off a loss and 21-11 ATS last 32 vs a team with a winning record. Play Dayton +4.5!
03-19-21	Bulls +7 v. Nuggets	Top	127-131	Win	100	27 h 54 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Bulls +7 -105 The Bulls (+7) are worth a look here as a decently priced road dog against the Nuggets in Friday's NBA action. Good spot here to jump on Chicago, as they are going to be undervalued here after that ugly 4th quarter collapse against the Spurs on Wednesday. Bulls are just the team you want to back in this spot. They are 6-2 ATS last 8 games off a loss and 8-1 ATS last 9 as road dog. Nuggets crushed Charlotte 129-104 on Thursday, but are just 6-13-1 ATS last 20 off a win by more than 10 points. Play the Bulls +7!

15* SHARP PLAY on Raptors +5½ -110 The Raptors (+5.5) are worth a look as a home dog against the Jazz in Friday's NBA action. Toronto is going to be close to back to full strength for this game and will be eager to test themselves against a Jazz team that owns the best record in the NBA. Thing is, Utah is in a funk right now and will be playing here in the 2nd game of a back-to-back. No way should the Raptors being getting this many at home. Play Toronto +5.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Loyola-Chicago -4½ -115 Loyola-Chicago (-4.5) is worth a look here against the Yellow Jackets in Friday's NCAA Tournament action. I know Georgia Tech just won the ACC Tournament and are riding a 8-game winning streak, I just think they got a brutal draw here in the Ramblers. They also suffered a big blow with Moses Wright not being available for this game. Loyola-Chicago dominated the Missouri Valley. I really think the Ramblers are way under seeded and will surprise a lot of people with how easy they win this game. Play Loyola-Chicago -4.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Lakers -6½ -107 The Lakers (-6.5) are worth a look here as a home favorite against the Hornets in Thursday's NBA action. LA had their struggles adjusting to life without Anthony Davis, but they seem to have figured out how to make-do without him. After an 0-4 SU and 0-4 ATS run, Lakers have gone 5-2 SU and 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7. Hornets just opened up their 5-game road trip with a 104-129 loss at Denver and with the way this team defends, I think they will have a hard time keeping this close. Play the Lakers -6.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Drake PK -115 Drake (PK) is worth a look here at a pick'em against Wichita State in Thursday's First Four action. These two teams will be facing off as No. 11 seeds and will fight for the right to take on No. 6 USC in the West Region on Saturday. The Bulldogs were one of the biggest surprises in the country this year. They started out 18-0 before finishing 25-4. They will be getting back arguably their best player in ShanQuan Hemphill, who has missed 9 games (3 of their 4 losses). I just think Drake is the much better offensive team and that will carry them to a win. Play Drake PK!
03-17-21	Nets -3 v. Pacers	Top	124-115	Win	100	28 h 46 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -3 -110 The Nets (-3) are worth a look as a slim road favorite against the Pacers in Wednesday's NBA action. This is just too good a price to pass up with Brooklyn against a struggling Indiana team. The Nets have won 13 of their last 14 and are 11-3 ATS during this run. The Pacers are just 2-7 SU and 1-7-1 ATS in their last 9. Indiana will put up a fight, but at -3 we really just need the Nets to win this game. Play Brooklyn -3!
03-17-21	Toledo -1.5 v. Richmond	Top	66-76	Loss	-110	33 h 17 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Toledo -1½ -110 Toledo (-1.5) is worth a look at basically a pick'em in Wednesday's 1st Round action out of the NIT Tournament. The Spiders are a bit fortunate to even get an invite with how they finished the season. Richmond lost their final two regular season games and then dropped their first and only game in the A-10 Tournament. Not only are the Spiders not playing well, their two best players, Blake Francis and Grant Golden are both dealing with injuries that have them questionable to even play. I just trust this Rockets team a lot more to show up for this game. Play Toledo -1.5!
03-16-21	Knicks v. 76ers -6		96-99	Loss	-110	20 h 37 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -6 -110 The red-hot 76ers (-6) are worth a look here as a home favorite against the Knicks. Philadelphia has won 3 straight out of the break and 5 in a row overall. Since the break they have won without Embiid and Simmons, without Simmons and without Embiid. The offense hasn't missed a beat no matter who is on the floor, as the 76ers have shot 52% or better in 5 straight. Philadelphia is the better team and catching the Knicks on the 2nd game of a back-to-back after facing rival Brooklyn in a nail-biter on Monday. Play 76ers -6!
03-16-21	Jazz -4.5 v. Celtics	Top	117-109	Win	100	19 h 18 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -4½ -110 The Jazz (-4.5) are worth a look here as a small road favorite against the Celtics. Most will look to take Boston as a home dog, but Utah is the better team and after a really poor showing on Sunday at Golden State, I look for the Jazz to be 100% locked in for this matchup. Celtics have been playing better, but this still a flawed team. Jazz are 14-5 ATS this season against a team from the Eastern Conference and 23-13 ATS last 36 as a favorite. Play Utah -4.5!
03-15-21	Pacers v. Nuggets -5	Top	106-121	Win	100	30 h 38 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets -5 -105 The Nuggets (-5) are worth a look as a small home favorite against the Pacers in Monday's NBA action. Good spot here to buy Denver, as they are going to be highly motivated coming off a rare home loss to the Mavs on Saturday. Denver was really playing well before losing that game, as they had won 5 straight. Pacers are off a big upset win at Phoenix, but I just feel it now has them getting a little too much respect in this game. Denver is not an easy place to play, especially when playing your 3rd road game in 4 days. Play the Nuggets -5!
03-15-21	Kings +2.5 v. Hornets		116-122	Loss	-100	27 h 38 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Kings +2½ -100 The Kings (+2.5) are worth a look as Sacramento visits Charlotte in Monday's NBA action. Hornets have won 3 straight, including their first two back from the All-Star break. Winning 3 games in a row looks great, but when you look at who it's come against it's really not that surprising. Kings have been showing some life here of late and with the way they are scoring the ball and the way the Hornets defend, I like them to not only cover but when this game outright. Play Sacramento +2.5!
03-14-21	Clippers -5.5 v. Pelicans		115-135	Loss	-105	28 h 1 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Clippers -5½ -105 The Clippers (-5.5) are worth a look here as a small road favorite against the Pelicans. I just don't trust this Pelicans team. New Orleans had that awful 105-135 loss at home to Minnesota in their first game out of the break and then the very next game crushed the Cavs 116-82. This team is all over the place and I'm not buying the defense they put on display against Cleveland. Clippers are going to score at will in this game and are such a good road team that this price is too good to pass up. Play the Clippers -5.5!
03-14-21	Celtics -10.5 v. Rockets		134-107	Win	100	27 h 10 m	Show
15* SHARP PLAY on Celtics -10½ -105 The Celtics (-10.5) are worth a look as a double-digit road favorite against the Rockets. It's sad what has transpired with Houston this season. The Rockets haven't won a game since Feb. 6th. They got guys not playing cause they want out, guys injured and just an overall lack of talent. Who knows who they are going to go with in this one. Celtics could bring their "C" game and cover this number, but I think Boston will show up after losing their first game back from the break against the Nets. Play the Celtics -10.5!
03-14-21	Jazz v. Warriors +6.5	Top	119-131	Win	100	23 h 5 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Warriors +6½ -105 The Warriors (+6.5) are worth a look here as a decently priced home dog against the Jazz on Sunday. Utah's crazy 20-1 run that spanned early Jan to mid Feb is going to have this team overpriced for quite a while. It's just not possible for them to sustain that level of play all season. We have seen them come back to reality here of late, as they have failed to cover 3 straight. Warriors have lost 4 straight, but those were all on the road sandwiched around the All-Star break. I think we get a max effort here from Golden State and just need them to keep it respectable. Play the Warriors +6.5!
03-13-21	Kings v. Hawks -3.5	Top	106-121	Win	100	28 h 44 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks -3½ -105 The Hawks (-3.5) are worth a look as a slim home favorite against the Kings in Saturday's NBA action. Atlanta has finally got something going here. The Hawks won their last two before the break and extended the win streak to 3 with a win over the Raptors on Thursday. The impressive thing is all 3 wins came on the road. It's just too good a price to pass up against this Kings team. Sacramento has won 3 of their last 5, but those 3 wins have come against the Pistons, the Lakers (rested a bunch of guys including LeBron) and a depleted Rockets team. Those are their only 3 wins since Feb. 7th. Play the Hawks -3.5!
03-13-21	Colorado State v. Utah State -4	Top	50-62	Win	100	15 h 58 m	Show
20* SHARP PLAY on Utah State -4 -110 Utah State (-4) is worth a look here as a small favorite against Colorado State in Friday's late night action in the Mountain West Tournament. These two split their two games in the regualr-season, but Utah State won the first meeting 83-64 before losing the rematch a couple days later. It's always hard to beat the same team twice in such a short period. I just think that first game is a better indicator for what we are going to see in this matchup. Play Utah State -4!
