ASA TOP PLAY 10* ON Winnipeg Jets Money Line -115 over Vancouver at 8 PM ET - The Canucks got a 4-0 shutout win yesterday at Winnipeg but the set up was perfect for them and, even in victory, they were outshot 27 to 19 by the Jets.  Going into yesterday's game, Vancouver had 3 full days off since playing on Thursday and the Canucks were highly motivated to end their losing streak of 4 straight games in that one.  They were catching the Jets at the perfect time to do just that.  Winnipeg was coming off an emotional 2-1 OT win over Montreal Saturday.  After back to back wins over the Canadiens, the first of which featured twice rallying from 2-goal deficits, the Jets were likely to be "out of gas" emotionally and physically last night and, sure enough, that proved to be the case.  Last night, the Canucks were proven to be the fresher and hungrier team.  However, now it is payback time for the Jets after that rare loss.  Winnipeg, entering yesterday's game, had won 4 straight games and 8 of their last 11 games.  The Canucks entered last night's game having lost 11 of 13 games.  This was clearly a case of two teams heading opposite directions for multiple weeks now and one game does not change all that.  The fact is that the Jets have been great in bounce back mode this season.  Winnipeg is 6-1 this season when coming off a loss.  Also, the goaltending match-up that is expected in this rematch favors the home side.  The Jets are expected to start Laurent Brossoit.  Even though he is the back-up to Connor Hellebuyck, Brossoit shutout the Canucks in his most recent start and has now allowed a total of just 2 goals in his last two appearances!  He will likely be opposed by Vancouver's Braden Holtby who has been replaced by Thatcher Demko as the #1 guy for the Canucks and this is because of his struggles.  Holtby lost 4 of his 5 starts last month and compiled a 3.86 GAA.  This one will be all Jets as they improve to 7-1 this season when off a loss.  We'll take advantage of the line value here because many would rate Holtby an edge over Brossoit in goal but that is simply not the case based on current level of play for these two.  That said, the lower line on Winnipeg here is an excellent value as this the perfect spot to back a revenging team.  Lay it!  Take the JETS

ASA top play on 10* UNDER 215.5 NY Knicks vs. San Antonio Spurs, 8:35 PM ET - Both teams have favored the Under on the season with a combined 25-40 Under record and tonight they add to that record. These two teams are similar in many regards including poor offense ranking 21st (Spurs) and 29th (Knicks) in scoring in the NBA. When it comes to offensive efficiency the Spurs are 21st in the league while the Knicks are 23rd. It’s also no secret both teams like to play defense. The Knicks allow just 104PPG on the year which is the best overall number in the NBA while the Spurs give up 111.7PPG which ranks 12th. New York has the 2nd best defensive efficiency numbers allowing just 1.081-points per possession, the Spurs give up 1.108PPP which is 11th best in the NBA. The other important factor here is pace of play. The Knicks are the slowest paced team in the NBA at 96.2 possessions per game so playing slow is a priority for New York. The Spurs are 12th in pace of play but they are coming off a game last night so expect them to play at a slower tempo here. In fact, in games that the Spurs have played without rest the average total points scored in those contests is just 205.8PPG. San Antonio is on a 4-1 Under run at home and have stayed Under in 6 of their last eight overall. New York is on a ridiculous 14-3 Under streak their last 17 road games. Bet UNDER in the Knicks vs. Spurs.

#644 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Purdue -1.5 over Wisconsin, Tuesday at 9 PM ET - The Badgers are not living up to expectations this year and they are flat out playing poorly right now. They are just 5-6 SU their last 11 games and their wins during that stretch have come against Nebraska, Northwestern (twice), Maryland, and Penn State. Against the top 6 teams in the Big 10 they are 0-6 SU this season. They haven’t faced Purdue yet, but the Boilers fall into the top 6 category ranking 6th in the league. Offensively UW has been really struggling as they have not gotten to 70 points in a full month. During that stretch they are shooting just 35% as a team. On the road this season the Badgers are hitting just 39% of their shots overall and only 30% from beyond the arc. Purdue has been very tough at home with a 9-1 record and their only loss coming to Michigan, the top team in the conference. How has Wisconsin done when traveling to Purdue? Terrible to put it lightly. The Badgers are 4-41 SU all time at Mackey Arena and their last with there came in 2014, the year Wisconsin went to the Final 4. While the Badgers are struggling, Purdue is playing much better having won 9 of their last 12 games. On offense they have had problems making 3-pointers, however the Boilers are much better at home in this area hitting 35% from deep and the Wisconsin defense has allowed their last 4 opponents to combine to shoot 46% from beyond the arc. Last year Purdue was favored by 4 in this match up at home and won 70-51. Now we’re getting them at a lower number vs a Wisconsin team that is headed in the wrong direction. Purdue wins and covers this one.

#634 ASA FREE PLAY ON Boise State -13.5 over Fresno State, Tuesday at 7 PM ET - Boise entered last week in 1st place in the MWC but lost 2 tight games on the road vs the #1 rated team in the league, San Diego State. They lost the opener @ SDSU in OT and the second meeting by 4. The Broncos now sit in the 4th spot for the upcoming conference tourney but have the opportunity to move up in the standings if they win here and get some help. Boise has a fantastic home court advantage with a perfect 11-0 SU record this year and 23-1 their last 24 here at Extra Mile Arena. The Broncos have won their home games by an average of +17 PPG while making 48% of the shots. They have played 7 games vs the lower half of the MWC and they have won those games by an average of almost +19 PPG including beating this Fresno team by 22 points earlier in the year here at home. Fresno is coming off back to back road game @ UNLV (both losses) and now they hit the road for their 3rd game in 7 days. They are 8-10 in conference play but their road games vs the top half of the conference have not been pretty. They’ve played 5 games on the road vs CSU twice, Nevada twice, and Boise State and the Bulldogs have lost those games by 22, 22, 16, 14, and 22 points. FSU hasn’t even had to face the 2 top rated teams on the league (San Diego St & Utah St) on the road this season. Their offense ranks near the bottom of the MWC in most key categories including 9th in eFG%, 3-point FG%, 2-point FG%, and FT%. The Bulldogs rely heavily on getting to the FT line to score points but Boise allows only 16% of opponents points from the line. They simply don’t foul a lot. The Broncos are a complete team on both ends of the court ranking 2nd in the MWC in offensive efficiency and 3rd in defensive efficiency. They’ve had some bad luck as when teams do go to the line vs Boise they’ve hit 76% of their FT attempts which is the highest in the league. Fresno won’t get to the line much tonight and when they do they only make 65%. This is the home finale for a veteran Boise State team and we get them off 2 losses for extra incentive. They are 15-3 ATS following their last 18 SU losses and this has the makings of a blow out. Take Boise State.
