Dave Price offers you his free pick on the Pacers/Nets tonight:

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Indiana Pacers -1.5
Indiana put an 18-point pounding on the Nets when they visited the Pacers on November 8th and I like the Pacers to prevail with another comfortable win because of its deadly three-point shooting. New Jersye is 11-23 ATS versus teams who attempt 18 or more 3 point shots/game on the season over the last 2 seasons and 14-28 ATS versus teams who make 6 or more 3 point shots/game on the season over the last 2 seasons. The Nets are also just 5-15 ATS in home games first half of the season over the last 2 seasons. The Nets have lost 4 of their last 5 and will have to take another setback tonight.

The Black Widow bites hard with a winner on the Celtics/Hawks:

1* on Atlanta Hawks +10.5

The Atlanta Hawks continue to get no respect tonight. All the Hawks have done is win their first six games of the season for a 6-0 record. This is a team looking to get revenge on the Boston Celtics after they were knocked out of the playoffs in a 7th game over the summer. Atlanta is the real deal this year and they are getting great contributions across the board. Al Horford recorded a career-best 27 points and 17 rebounds in a 113-108 win over Chicago on Tuesday. But with guys like Mike Bibby, Josh Smith and Joe Johnson leading the way, it�s easy to see how the Hawks have been so dominant to star the season. Atlanta has won the majority of their games away from home, making their undefeated record even more impressive. The Hawks are 4-0 on the road this season where they are limiting their foes to just 89.2 points per game. This kind of defensive effort gives Atlanta a good chance to keep it close, and perhaps pull off the upset tonight over the defending NBA Champs. Take Atlanta and the points.

Overall #1 Handicapper John Martin gives his opinion on the Kings/Clippers Wednesday:

Martin’s Wednesday Free Play:

1 Unit on L.A. Clippers -7

The L.A. Clippers are finally healthy and you will now see this team start to play up to their potential. Marcus Camby and Baron Davis are back on the floor after missing some time early in the season due to injury. It all came together for the Clippers in a 103-92 home win over the Dallas Mavericks in their last game on Sunday. The Clippers have now had a couple days to get ready for tonight’s home game with the Sacramento Kings, who are really banged up right now. After losing to the Pistons 100-92 at home last night, the Kings are now asked to play on back-to-back nights when they travel to L.A. Wednesday. The Kings will be asked to try and be competitive tonight despite playing without 3 of their best players in Kevin Martin, Quincy Douby and Francisco Garcia. This trio makes up the Kings’ best 3 scorers and Sacramento will not be competitive tonight without them. The Kings are 0-4 on the road this season, getting outscored by 20.0 points/game. Sacramento hasn’t even showed up when they’ve traveled away from Arco Arena. This game will be a blowout from start to finish where a banged-up Kings’ team has no chance of competing against a healthy Clippers’ squad led by Baron Davis. Cash in with the Clippers as the favorite.

Good luck tonight and all of this week!
