01-31-20 | Flyers v. Penguins -160 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 39 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on the Pittsburgh Penguins. "Revenge" is a powerful motivating factor and it's one that I always look at when making a pick. Sometimes the "revenge angle" is meaningless for various reasons and other times it does in fact mean a lot. And that's the case here in my opinion. Both teams return to the ice for the first time since the All Star game, but in their last game before the break, the Flyers scored the 3-0 win at home. "Revenge" is a dish best served cold and I look for the now rested Pens to use it as motivation here to bury the Flyers. Key Trends: - Philadelphia is 10-13-2 on the road this year, while Pittsburgh is 18-5-3 at home. - The Flyers are ranked 30th in the NHL in goals allowed per game on the road and 19th in goals scored per contest. - Pittsburgh is ranked ninth in the league in goals scored per game at home and seventh in goals allowed per contest. The verdict: Look for Sidney Crosby and company to get their revenge and lay this price with confidence! |

01-30-20 | Hornets v. Wizards -3.5 | Top | 107-121 | Win | 100 | 12 h 55 m | Show |
My 10* BLOWOUT ULTIMATE OF THE ULTIMATE is on the Washington Wizards. Off a home win over the Knicks, I expect the Hornets to predictably struggle on the road in the nation's capital. The Wizards come in focussed on the task at hand as they enter off a double-digit loss to Milwaukee. Despite the win last time out, note that the Hornets have averaged fewer than 100 points over their last five. The Wizards' deplorable defense catches a break here today facing this stagnant Hornets' offense. Key Trends: - The Wizards are 4-1 ATS in their last five at home. - Charlotte is only 1-4 ATS in its last five vs. the division. - The Hornets are already just 3-7 ATS this season after successfully covering the spread in two or more straight outings. The verdict: I think the home side has the distinct advantage here, as I expect a double-digit blowout once it's all said and done; lay the short points! |
|||||||
01-29-20 | Lightning -1.5 v. Kings | 4-2 | Win | 131 | 30 h 14 m | Show | |
My 8* BIG TIGER is on the Bolts PUCK-LINE. I like the Lightning to win big here after their loss in Dallas to open the second half. The Kings have lost four straight and have nothing at all to play for here. Overall Tampa Bay averages 3.57 GPG and it allows 2.86 (the Lightning power-play is converting 26.8%, while the penalty kill sits at 83.5%.) LA averages just 2.50 GPG, while conceding 3.12 (power play is converting 16.2%, while the penalty kill is atrocious at 73.4%.) Key Trends: - The Kings are interestingly just 5-21 in their last 26 vs. the Atlantic division. - The Lightning are still 7-3 in their last ten as a road favorite. The verdict: I think we'll see the Kings come out sluggish after the long lay off, while the Lightning have the advantage of having already played. Lay the 1.5 goals for the nice return! |
|||||||
01-28-20 | Villanova v. St. John's OVER 143 | Top | 79-59 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 40 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the OVER Nova/St. John's. I'm expecting a faster paced affair and I look for this total to eclipse the posted number sooner, rather than later. Villanova comes in red hot by going 6-1 in its last seven conference games. St. John's not so much though, going just 2-6 in conference play, but coming off a huge 79-66 win over DePaul (Nova beat Providence 64-60 in its last action.) Villanova averages 74.3 PPG and it allows 66.2. St. John's averages 75.5 PPG and it allows 69. Key Trends: - Nova has interestingly seen the total go over the number in 16 of its last 25 after six or more consecutive SU victories. - St. John's has seen the total eclipse the posted number in four of its last five after having lost six or seven of its last eight games SU. The verdict: I expect a faster paced affair tonight and when the final horn sounds, look for these two offenses to then be the main story lines in tomorrow's summaries; play the over! |
|||||||
01-27-20 | Lightning v. Stars +120 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 120 | 26 h 46 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on the Dallas Stars. Tampa had won five straight in this series before a 4-3 OT win over the Lightning in December. Tampa has won 12 of its last 14. Dallas is 7-3 in its last ten, however it comes into the second half having lost two straight, including a humiliating 7-0 setback to the Wild in their last action. Both teams sport similar offensive and defensive numbers, but I don't think that the home ice advantage can be overlooked as a very real deciding factor tonight. Key Trends: - The Stars are 7-2 in their last nine home games following a three days or longer rest. - Tampa Bay is just 2-5 in its last seven non-conference road games as the favorite. The verdict: I believe the Bolts' chemistry takes a hit here with the extended time off, while conversely, I look for the Stars to come out fired up here after the back-to-back losses. As Bob Barker used to say: "The Price Is Right!" |
|||||||
01-26-20 | Pacers v. Blazers -1.5 | Top | 129-139 | Win | 100 | 14 h 53 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on the Portland Trail Blazers. I think the home side digs deep and finds a way to get the job done in front of the home town crowd. Indiana is 13-11 away from home, which isn't great. But compared to the Blazers sub-par 10-11 home record, it's much better. This is game five of a five game road trip for Indiana and I think it's going to struggle to find energy vs. this desperate home side. Portland is currently on the outside of the playoff picture looking in. This is the third game of a four-game home stand. The Blazers have just two wins in their last five games. Key Trends: - Indiana is a poor 0-2 ATS off two straight road wins by ten points or more. - Portland is 6-1 ATS in its last seven after allowing 110 points or more for four straight games (including 3-1 ATS this season.) The verdict: I think the Pacers come out flat in their final game of this trip and I expect the Blazers to play with a sense of urgency from start to finish; lay the short points! |
|||||||
01-26-20 | Ohio State v. Northwestern +6.5 | 71-59 | Loss | -115 | 23 h 50 m | Show | |
My 9* BEWARE OF DOG is on Northwestern. I think that the hungry home side will push the visitors to the brink here. Ohio State has lost two straight, while Northwestern has dropped eight of its last eight, including three straight conference contests. Clearly both teams are "hungry," but I'll argue that the home side is much more so. Ohio State has allowed over 70 points per game over its last nine games and I think it'll have its hands full again here. The Buckeyes offense has struggled during conference action as well. The Wildcats are averaging 67 PPG, led by leading scorer Miller Kopp (13 PPG). Key Trends: - Ohio State is 0-5 ATS in its last five following a SU loss. - Northwestern is 7-3 ATS in its last ten home games following a three games or more conference losing streak. The verdict: Clearly Northwestern has plenty of issues of its own, but it catches the perfect team now to get untracked against. Outright win?! Very possible, but in the end let's grab the points! |
|||||||
01-26-20 | San Diego State v. UNLV +8 | Top | 71-67 | Win | 100 | 20 h 21 m | Show |
My 10* CLASH-OF-THE-TITANS is on UNLV. SDSU is 20-0, while UNLV is 11-10. I think the Aztecs are going to have a fight on their hands from start to finish and in a contest which I think'll be decided in the final moments, I'm going to grab up the ample points. The Aztecs are 9-0 in MWC play, while the Rebels are 6-2. Most recently the Aztecs come in off a 72-55 win over Wyoming at home. Malachi Flynn led the way with 18 points. Overall SDSU averages 74.7 PPG and it concedes 56.7. UNLV comes in off a loss to Nevada and it'll be eager to get back on track here at home and to try and snap the Aztecs perfect record. UNLV averages 71.9 PPG and it allows 69.7. Key Trends: - SDSU is 7-2 ATS in its last nine home games following a SU/ATS loss. - SDSU is only 3-4 ATS in its last seven after a 15 points or higher home victory. The verdict: I don't think SDSU is going to run the table and despite having a key injury to its point guard, I believe UNLV will give the Aztecs their "best shot" this afternoon; grab the points! |

01-25-20 | Lakers v. 76ers UNDER 216.5 | Top | 91-108 | Win | 100 | 26 h 59 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL ULTIMATE OF THE ULTIMATE is on the UNDER Lakers/76ers. Philadelphia has had a couple days off to absorb a double-digit road loss in Toronto. The Lakers are coming off a double-digit win over the Nets, one night after beating the Knicks. Philadelphia doesn't push the pace, and neither do the Lakers. LA is one of the most under-rated defenses in the league in my opinion. Key Trends: - LA has seen the total go under the number in 11 of its last 15 after playing four straight on the road. - Philly has seen the total dip under in 17 of its last 24 after playing two straight divisional contests. The verdict: I expect a hard-fought game, where every possession is contested. I also expect half-court sets from each side as it looks to establish its low post paint game. This number is high, play the under! |
|||||||
01-25-20 | Tennessee v. Kansas OVER 122.5 | Top | 68-74 | Win | 100 | 21 h 22 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL BLOOD-BATH is on the OVER Tennessee/Kansas. This is the Big 12/SEC Challenge and while these two teams are both stout defensively, I believe that we'll see a faster pace and ultimately a higher-scoring affair once it's all said and done. The Vols have won two straight in blowout fashion, having won each by at least 20 points, most recently beating down Ole Miss 73-48. Jordan Bowden leads the nightly charge by averaging 12.3 points along with 3.9 rebounds and 2.5 assists. Kansas is 15-3 and it's coming off an 83-60 destruction of K-State, a contest which ended in an ugly brawl and a number of suspensions. The best way to forget about that game and quickly move on? By winning and winning big of course! Key Trends: - Tennessee has seen the total go over the number in eight of its last 11 non-conference games and on a two-games or more unbeaten streak. - Kansas has seen the total fly over in eight of its last 12 non-conference home games as the favorite. The verdict: The overall situation and the trends all point to the "over" as the correct call in this one! |

01-25-20 | Denver +14.5 v. North Dakota State | Top | 70-82 | Win | 100 | 20 h 23 m | Show |
My 10* BIG TIGER is on Denver. Denver won't be going down without a fight tonight. Last time out it also battled tooth and nail vs. North Dakota on Thursday, but its come-back bid fell short in the 78-71 setback. Ade Murkey was a bright spot in defeat with 25 points, while Jase Townsend added 19. Overall the Pioneers average 67.1 PPG and they've been holding the opposition to 31.5 percent from range, ranked second in the Summit League. It's also ranked third in the league in getting to the charity stripe. North Dakota State averages 72.9 PPG and it concedes 65.4. Vinnie Shahid leads the nightly charge with 16.6 PPG. Key Trends: - Denver is 7-3 ATS in its last ten road games after scoring 70 or more points in its previous outing and still losing SU. - North Dakota State is just 4-7 ATS in its last 11 home games as a favorite in the -9.5 to -15.5 points range. The verdict: I like Denver to keep pace offensively and while I'll stop short in calling for the outright upset, everything points to this one being significantly more competitive than what this spread would suggest; grab the points! |

01-24-20 | Nuggets v. Pelicans UNDER 231 | Top | 113-106 | Win | 100 | 13 h 16 m | Show |
My 10* TOTAL CLASH OF THE TITANS is on the UNDER Nuggets/Pelicans. New Orleans was playing better before Zion Williamson returned to the line-up, but now that he's back, there's finally some excitement going on with the Pelicans. Williamson had 22 points in a loss to the Spurs in his debut. The Pelicans though are only 8-14 at home this year. New Orlean's turnaround of play has been because of its offensive play, but I think the visiting side will slow this one down and look to control the pace whenever possible. The Nuggets average 109.3 PPG and they concede just 106. Denver is 13-8 on the road and it'll look to close out its road-trip with a win here by containing this young Pelicans team. Key Trends: - Denver has seen the total go under the number in five of seven as a road underdog already this year. - New Orleans has seen the total dip below the posted number in five of its last six off an upset loss as a home favorite. The verdict: The Nuggets play at one of the slowest paces in the NBA and I believe this will ultimately help in pushing this total well below this sky-high number; play the under! |
