9-2 last 3 nights. Looking to continue the hot streak. These are leans so far.
Boston +5 - Yes the Celtics just played last night but they want to get back on the winning track. Atlanta has a few injuries which are game time decisions. Boston just won in Atlanta this month as an underdog and I believe they at least keep it close. Take the points.
Detroit +9.5 - Yes they play the Heat but the Heat haven't been playing their best or blowing opponents out. Detroit also has been playing well and should keep this game close.
Jazz + 5 - Lakers get too much love for how bad they have been playing. Maybe I will start to consider them once they show they can win and blow out teams like they should
New Orleans under 200.5 - I was considering the over at first but then thought how bad the Rockets have been playing. Also the public is all over the over and it went down instead of up. Considering the under now.

I would love to hear any thoughts, comments, or plays. But I don't want any spam.

Best time to play Boston imo - after everyone saw them lose last night. Good value on that line... Detroit + looks nice as well.

Like Houston, as desperate as they are, to win. And Dallas +1 (Spurs without Duncan) and Dallas is hot right now.

Best

Under 200.5 

The line is definitely not moving in favor of the Jazz..

Detroit

Boston +5? Seems a lot of points to give...

Like that Boston play alot actually. I think they're gonna grind down ATL's offense and cut them off in the mid court.

With all of the shots they missed yesterday I see them connecting today. KG gonna bang down low after last night. I see him going double double for sure 20-24pts, 10-12 rebounds. Not having to worry about Melo and J.R. smith perimeter presence is gonna make Pierce's life a lot easier too. Solid play my man, everyone's all over ATL again...they're STILL on my top 5 fade list right there with HOU.

I actually might change my mind on the Jazz play. I think the Lakers and Kobe get it done tonight. If the Lakers want to turn their season around they gotta start tonight at home. If they cant win at home tonight versus a Jazz team that's below average on the road then their season is done. Halfway thru the season now the Lakers have to step it up and do it big!!

I might like the Hornets over now looking at the numbers now. They played twice already this month and both games went under and the line is still the same as the last game. I feel like Houston will show up tonight and score 100+. If they score 100 the Hornets won't have a problem keeping up with them and breaking the century mark.

Dont overthink your plays man...do you really think LAL can win straight up the way they've been playing?

I dont think they have the guts to beat UTAH after getting their confidence broken the last week. Even if Kobe drops 50 they still lose straight up in a blowout...let alone giving up 4 points.

But then again...I'm no expert.

Yeah maybe you are right forbes. I can't overthink my original feelings on a game. Until the Lakers show they are ready to be playoff contenders i don't think I can side with them

Don't think they get blown out. Think the Lakers win tonight. Friday night in LA. Yeah, they'll get the win. Will they cover? Not sure. But they will win.

Lots of bettors like to go with a team that covers... until it doesn't. Or against a team that doesn't cover, until it does. Not many teams that follow that trend consistently... and if there are - the linesmaker is quickly adjusting.

Just because it's not popular doesn't make it wrong.

Their season is done.  They know it, we all know it, but their is still dignity to be salvaged, and that's very important, too.  I think the Lakers will cover tonight from start to finish.

Why's that?  They got in at 4 AM EST after the Knicks game, and are playing against an Atlanta team that is playing hungry again and has a solid D

Really a gut feeling. The Celtics are a great team with the starting 5 on the floor. Making my assumption on the law of large numbers. They should average out to their true shooting percentage over the course of time. In a microcosm; yesterday they missed an incredible amount of makeable shots...the chances they repeat that is not very likely today.

Again...I'm no expert.

Boston is looking great tonight. Being down 19 after 1 quarter is hard to come back but made the Boston play look great
