I like Sacramento where they are for the only reason of being at home. The point difference is 1 point. The game will be too close to have gone for a larger spread. at -1 Sacramento is a great pick here. You are basically picking the moneyline of who is to win.

Had this been in Minnesota, i would go for the Twolves int his one to break out of a 6 game slump. If Love was 100%, I would pick the Twolves. But Evans should ride momentum in this game from his last 4 where he is averaging 21 pts on 55% FG. Not many guards for Minny that can slow him down.

I would say Houston but they don't have their head coach tonight because his daughter passed away, which some could argue would be a motivating factor for the Rockets but the Raptors are a different team with Lowry which makes me vere away from this. If the spread was right around 3.5 or 3 I would probably hop on Houston for the night but tonight I will go ahead and pass.

But instead tonight I am going to go with...

Sacramento ML (-115)
The biggest reason for me taking this pick is because of what Tyreke Evans has shown me the last couple games and he is really starting to find his shot. Aaron Brooks continues to make circus shots left and right giving the team and crowd energy. Minnesota is just in a funk right now, Kevin Love isnt himself since coming back from the injury and the chemistry just hasn't been there yet. I do however expect them to find it sometime soon but they have got to get things together on the defensive end for me to pull the trigger on Minnesota, they have given up over 101 the last 4 games and that is big considering the Kings are starting to find their identity offensively. 

Risking $34.61 (10% of $346.08) to win $30.10

Thanks again for all of the support on this thread. Remember just because I went 10-3 doesnt mean I am going to go 11-3. Prepare to win, expect to lose, don't go big on any bet and we'll do just fine together. 

Best of luck tonight Gentlemen

stay smart.


Nice brah! Kings are playing some good ball. Let's just hope Cousins doesn't ejected from the game.

Seems the oddsmakers have no shortage of respect for the visiting Twolves in this one when they list the game at a pickem between the home court Sacramento Kings and Minnesota. One would think the hometown Kings would have been somewhat of a slight favorite considering the fact that the visiting Timberwolves enter the contest on the heels of a 5-gm losing skid. Bol tonight.

Good Luck with the Kings, Tonight, SM.

Since Love's return, the Wolves have played ahead of their opponent in the 1st H, only to lose in the 2nd half which correlates with your points on their current state of disarray.  I may go with a 2nd half bet to avoid in the 1st H.  Then again, sometimes better not to over-analyze and just go for the FG.

Thanks for the write- up- excellent as always,

Money - thanks buddy I'm still not sold on Love being back, he was even surprised that he was able to play. Seems to me that they were in a funk after losing so many guys that they wanted to rush him into the lineup. A healthy Love would make this a no play but I like the way Tyreke has been playing lately for the Kings. Good luck tonight bud. 


Viktory - cannot agree more my friend 


WPFD - thanks for the support buddy, hopefully it'll hit again tonight 


dr - like this spot for the Kings and the way they have been playing lately.  good luck tonight buddy


rustie - thanks buddy 


Efini - hahah no kidding man, dudes on my fantasy team such an emotional wreck sometimes. Lets hope they continue to play well 


zizou - thanks buddy lets keep the train rollin 


weasel - thanks buddy, a lot of good guys on the forum. Haters will always hate but they don't get my attention. 


bven - I personally hardly ever play totals so I dont really have a say on it. 10% works for me but if your not comfortable risking that much scale it down to 5 or 2.5% or whatever works for you. 10% really is quite a bit but its what I'm comfortable with. 


manutd - as always buddy, good luck. 


davo - 


pinball - agree 100% buddy.  good luck tonight if anything sticks out to you.


DM21 - thanks brother, personally think they forced Love's return out of desperation, he'll be fine over time and so will the T-wolves but tonight I like the Kings and the way they've been playing.

Rolled the dice on Dallas on an outright win, lost that one today. They played it close, but the oddsmakers had it dead on with the game less than 3.5 points.

Watching SAC/Minny game. Typical Cousins, trying to take over and slowing offense down. wants to be prove he should have been on USA instead of Love. He is getting his points, but killing the offensive flow. Sac's offense so much better when it goes through Evans. I did pic Sacramento but it looks like its slipping away, down by 10 in the 3rd

Vik - just one of those nights man, game isn't over yet by any means but Kings can't seem to get anything going offensively. It happens.
