Baylor +3 They are undefeated. Kansas State did just blow out undefeated Missouri but Baylor should be alerted and ready. Just a small play as it should be a great game.
La Salle -4.5 They are on fire right now having won 10 of the past 11 games. UPenn will get beat on the boards.
Florida State/Virginia Tech over 123 Both teams average 70 points per game. Florida State should look to bounce back after a pitiful offensive display in a 20 point loss at Clemson. Va Tech will look to do the same after only putting up 55 in a 3 point loss to Wake Forest. The total between these 2 teams in a regular season match up has not been under 120 points in a single game since Va Tech joined the ACC. Look for the trend to continue.
Vanderbilt -4(PYOD) They are the better team. They are coming off a loss. They will win.
Oklahoma City Thunder -3 They are better than the Grizzlies even when the Grizzlies have Randolph. With Randolph gone, I don't think the Griz can keep up offensively with Durant & company.
Dallas Mavericks -6 A battle of 2 teams who love getting blown out. I like the "better" team Dallas to deliver the pain. Who knows, though, they could end up losing instead by 20. Been a wild early season.
BOL everyone. Feel free to fade away . Longer write-ups to come tomorrow.

Baylor +3 Baylor is loaded with NBA calibur talent. K-state?...not so much. The Wildcats managed to upset Mizzo but like I said that should just make Baylor much more on alert and be able to pull this one out. K-state has a great coach and they need no added motivation in this one. They are also at home. However, Baylor is undefeated this year, including 5-0 on the road. K-state has dominated them of late, but this year's Baylor team is from a completely different mold. Just like La Salle, Baylor holds the edge in basically every single statistical category, including defense. Like I said, this will be one hell of a game.
La Salle -4.5 They have won 4 in a row against UPenn. The game before that where the lost was a 1 point loss in a shootout. La Salle has been deadly from behind the 3 point line and they hold their opponents to under 40% shooting (on average). They are better on rebounding, points against, steals, etc, etc (everything except FT percentage). In a numbers game, La Salle wins outright. They have been pretty decent on the road this year, posting a 3-1 record. UPenn has been mediocre (3-3) at home.
Vanderbilt -4 They are 7-3 in their last 10 games against the Gamecocks. They are also a great 4-0 against the spread this year away from home. Vandy can score more, rebound better, steal better, shoot 3's better. They are too much for this South Carolina team. They also hold a nice recent quality win on the road against Marquette. South Carolina's only chance is to shoot lights out and pray Vandy is ice cold. That's not a good recipe. My play of the day for sure.
I believe my Florida St/Va Tech write up is sufficient already.
NBA write-ups to come soon. Also considering the following leans:

NBA write-ups to come soon. Also considering the following leans:
Mavericks -6
They are 5-1 against Detroit the last 6 times they have played them.
Detroit has a tendency to get blown out against better teams.
Unfortunately, the Mavs this year seem to like not showing up too. Mavs
have 2 full days rest while the Pistons just got blown out yesterday at
Chicago. I don't see how Dallas doesn't show up in this one. Pistons
probably won't lay down completely, but they "should" be outmatched
against the defending champs.
Thunder -3
Like I said, the Griz can't keep up with the Thunder offensively. They
already played once this year in Memphis, Randolph played in that game,
and the Thunder won by 3. Now they play again in Memphis, and Memphis
doesn't have it's best player, and the spread is still 3 .
Something seems fishy to me. Thunder have lost backup PG Maynor for
the year but have serviceable backups, including moving Harden to point
while Westbrook takes a breather. The Griz frontcourt is hurting,
especially with Randolph out and Arthur out for the year. Pretty
confident play for me.
Rockets -3
The Bobcats suffered a tough loss in NY last night, while the Rockets
come in rested. The Rockets are winless on the road this year, and I
think they will come out with intensity and hunger for that first away
victory. Last time they played the Bobcats, they blew them out. They
are also 9-2 against them the last 11 times they played. Lowry is
returning, which should give them a much needed spark.
Warriors/Heat under 196
The Warriors have yet to place an "over" at home this year. They claim
to be focusing more on defense and we already know the Heat can play D
with the best of them. I'm hoping for a grind it out game where points
will be hard to come by (at least for the Warriors). I envision Miami
winning 100-87 or something of that sort. This is just a "fade the
Warriors over at home" play until they manage to get it done.
