Both of the last two meetings went over 139, and we see this one going into the 130s also. Cleveland has been one of the best defensive teams in the NBA, but they have fallen off in that department recently or are at least very inconsistent. They allowed 120 last time out to Dallas, one of the lower ranked offensive teams in the NBA. Atlanta’s offense is clicking big time and they have scored 120+ in three straight. They are very good offensively at home. We expect both teams to be competitive here and both will get their points to put this one over the posted number.

The Rangers have scored 14 goals in their last three games, so their offense is playing well at the moment. Pittsburgh exploded for 11 goals last time out against Detroit, and sometimes goals come in bunches as a team gets hot and can find the back of the net more easily. The over is 18-5-3 in the last 26 meetings, so this series has a long history of high scoring games. These teams played last week and we saw six goals scored, and we think we could see more than that tonight.

They went into Saturday’s game having won three of four, so they are in nice form right now, and they have played in quite a bit of one-goal games recently. The Kings have been back and forth and haven’t been super consistent lately and they have had some problems on offense and we think the Kraken will bring their A Game in this revenge spot.

This is more of a fade of Miami than a statement about Sacramento. Miami is in a freefall right now and this is a very public number. Miami has dropped four straight and they have covered only one of their last nine. They had that very public blowup on the sideline last week, and that is the type of thing that can linger for a long time. Can the Heat win this one and get back on track? Absolutely. But we just don’t see this team getting back on track in a big way with a blowout. The Kings enter having won two straight. They have covered three in a row as they also lost to the Suns in OT. So they are playing well right now. The Kings are 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings so they normally get up for this opponent.

Duke shot the ball well in the second half against Texas Tech and look for that to carryover into this game. Arkansas may cover the number, but they are not winning this game.

They rank among the worst in the league in offensive and defensive goals scored. They have been losing by multiple goals regularly lately, and we think a rested Kings team that hasn’t left the West Coast in a couple weeks will be ready to put a beatdown on the Blackhawks.

Coach K has a great record in this round 16-9 and I do not believe this is the type of team that can take out Duke Texas Tech is a great defensive team, but they struggle at times on offense, and I am not sure they will be able to score enough to keep pace with Duke. They also have a first-year coach with them who did not have any success in his previous stop as a head coach. I am not sure I trust him in a close game against the greatest coach in college basketball. Everyone wants to see a Duke – Gonzaga Elite 8 game and I feel that will happen. Duke has a national fan base, and they will be well represented in this game that takes place in San Francisco. Texas Tech is 8-20 ATS in their last 28 games played on Thursday.

They have covered in eight of those games, so despite lots of respect from the oddsmakers they are still getting the job done in a big way. They have motivation as well as they will want to get that No. 1 seed, and they are currently a couple games back of Miami. Washington is mathematically still alive, but who are we kidding. This team will be eliminated soon, and right now they are probably just playing out the string. If their last game was any indication, that is exactly the case as they lost to the Rockets by 18. This team is getting blown out on a regular basis, and we don’t see the Bucks breaking too much of a sweat to win this one by double digits.

We just think this is a big letdown spot for Orlando and this team doesn’t deserve to be a road favorite over any team in the NBA. OKC is one of the best ATS teams in the NBA at 43-25-4 on the season. They have dealt with a lot of injuries but they still manage to play above oddsmakers expectations, and they probably have the best player on the court right now in Alexander. OKC has covered in six of the last seven meetings. OKC has had a very tough schedule. If they are to end the losing streak, this is the game to do it.

The Greek Freak should be back here as he is probable, and he is well rested after missing the Minnesota game.

This is getting down to the nitty gritty with the postseason in sight and we don’t see the Mavs dropping three straight, and they are back home for this one. Both these teams are close together in the standings and this is a crucial game for the Mavs as they need to fend off the charging Wolves but also avoid dropping down into the play in seedings. They have won eight of their last 11 so we aren’t to worried about those two losses. They are in fine form overall. And the Wolves have had some nice wins for sure but their recent run is a bit deceiving as they have faced teams with missing stars and many bad teams. They will face a very motivated team tonight and one that is the better club, and this line is more than fair. Dallas has a strong betting history against the Wolves as they are 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Dallas and 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings overall.

Utah will be missing some key pieces here as they have two starters out, including their best player, and some key role players.

They already had their letdown game against Orlando and that is the only game they didn’t cover in the last nine. The Lakers are always one of the worst ATS teams in the league every year even when they are a dominant team, but they have been one of the worst ATS teams again this season and they are once again being given too much credit by the oddsmakers as we had this game handicapped at -13 and think the home team had tremendous value here.

The Nets haven’t had any stability in the roster this season, and that has led to some disappointing results on the court for the team that was favored entering the season in the East. There are some very wacky trends out there that are meaningless, but this one fits the Nets perfectly: they are 1-9 ATS in their last 10 games where they won by 10 or more points. So they normally follow up a good game with a dud, and they won by double digits against Charlotte last time out. Philly is just quietly getting the job done and they have won eight of 10 and when they win they normally cover. We think the home team has a great chance for a 7+-point win here.

Arizona has one of the worst defenses in the NHL, so Toronto should stay hot. We expect a big night from the home team, which is one of the better over bets in the league this season.

Purdue has great size, but Zach Edey cannot play many minutes and this team is just not that good at playing defense.

Sacramento is 7-22 on the road this season. They are a slightly better team in this matchup but we think this is too many points for them to lay on the road. The Thunder are one of the best ATS teams in the NBA this season. They should be focused here as this is a very winnable game, and we think the home dog has a great chance to cash.

The Canucks are the superior team and we are getting a nice price on the road at plus money. Vancouver has four more wins on the road than the Devils do at home. Vancouver comes in on a back to back but they have had two days off before yesterday and we think they keep their winning streak going tonight.

10 Unit Play. Take #727 South Carolina over Alabama (6p.m., Saturday, February 26 SECN) We have been fading Alabama during much of the conference season and today will be no different. The Tide are not anywhere near as strong as they were last season. They struggle to shoot it well from the arc as well as rebound efficiently. Carolina will enter having won 4 straight games and are starting to play some of their best basketball of the season. The underdog is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 games between Alabama and South Carolina. The Gamecocks have covered the spread in their last 5 games. Alabama is 1-10 ATS in their last 11 home games.

4 Unit Play. Take #717 Wisconsin +2.5 over Rutgers (6p.m., Saturday, February 26 BTN) Just do not believe Rutgers is good enough to beat Wisconsin twice in the regular season. The Scarlet Knights have been streaky this season and now they are on a downward trend having lost two straight games but 9 or more points. They play better at home, but they do not warrant being favored against the top team in the conference. The Badgers are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 road games against teams with a winning home record.

7 Unit Play. Take #616 Detroit -3 over Purdue Fort Wayne (1p.m., Saturday, February 26 ESPN+) Detroit has an impressive 10-6 record at home despite playing 11 of their 16 Horizon League games on the road. They close out the regular season with 4 straight home games and look to make it 4 for 4 with a win today. This was just a two point game when these two teams met earlier this season in Fort Wayne and I expect the Titans to win this game by close to double-digits. Detroit is 10-1 ATS (1 push) in their last 12 games as a home favorite.

The Clippers are the disrespected little brother in their own city, and they normally get up big for this matchup. They are 9-1 ATS in the last 10 when the official road team in this matchup. They should have covered in the last meeting but they fell apart late but still won the game. This Lakers team is a mess and we just don’t think they are good or going to turn it around at any point. Nice value in this line tonight.

Colorado is one of the best offensive teams in the NBA and we see them putting up a big number on offense tonight. They average four goals per game, and we think they get more than that tonight and the Jets will make up the difference. But we expect both offenses to be fluid and the puck should hit the back of the net often.

Boston was in a slump but they have righted the ship and they have won two straight, including a massive four-goal win in Colorado last time out. We think they keep the momentum going here. Seattle has lost five straight, and all but one of those was by double digits. Seems like Boston would be motivated here after the slump.

The Bulls are a much better team overall and the Hawks struggle on the road. We think after the long break that going on the road for the first game back is a bad situation for a team that plays poorly in general away from home. The Bulls were a hot betting team before the break at 5-1 ATS, and we feel they will pick up right where they left off.

These are two of the big surprise teams in the NBA this season. But the difference is that the Wolves are just a surprise but the Grizzlies are a true contender. Memphis has been one of the best betting teams this season and very consistent. Minnesota has been somewhat inconsistent. We think the Grizzlies will put an emphasis on starting off the unofficial second half of the season with a strong performance.

4 Unit Play. Take #796 Georgetown over DePaul (8:00p.m., Thursday, February 24 CBSSN) Georgetown is terrible and Patrick Ewing will likely be fired in March. That being said, I just cannot picture them going winless in the Big East this season and this is their only chance to get a win in their last 4 games. DePaul will enter with just a 3-13 conference record and they just should not be favored against anyone on the road. DePaul is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a favorite. The home team is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 games between DePaul and Georgetown.

Off the extended All Star break these two shaky offenses should struggle to put points on the board. We think that both defenses will have a lot of energy and we expect this one to go well under the posted number. Cleveland played some good offensive teams before the break and had some high scoring games, but we think this situation after the long break presents itself to the under.

Toronto has now lost five of seven games. Yet they are still laying a big number to a very good Minnesota team. We will bite on the underdog here. The Wild are in a bit of a slump as well. But overall they have been in better form than Toronto. Minnesota is 10-4 in the last 14 meetings.

Florida rarely loses at home but we think Columbus will make a game of this. They are one of the hottest teams in the NHL right now and they have been knocking off big favorites left and right. Sometimes confidence is all you need as an NHL team as all the clubs in the league are loaded with talent. We like the value on the plus money puckline here.
