^finally the Clips get back on track. Opening up at 9pt favorites against a beleaguered T-Wolves squad says it all. You guys won't like paying the juice but, again, I dont mind paying juice when it's a super-good spot for a team.
Other leans: Celtics, Bulls, Hawks, Thunder
BOL! I'll be back with another pick later...

These are extremely good spots for all three teams. Clippers looking to end 4 game slide vs a team that just isn't that good. Thunder vs a Rockets team that will be dead tired after attending funeral and getting in late to OKC. And then the Hawks against a Bobcats team I'm simply going to fade for a while until they're 10 games under .500

I hate chasing a team when they are on a losing streak but I have to admit that Clippers will get their act together today and win this one large. BOL to you, Slimjim
Why not play a portion of your investment SU and some with spread?

I'd love to parlay these three, but my local bookie has some ridiculous rules on parlays where I would have to pay 20% extra juice on the bet.
I'm confident that all three will hit, but if I were to place a confidence scale of the three it would go OKC, Clips, and then the Hawks.
As for teasers, I simply hate playing any sort of spreads for favorites in the NBA. Too many backdoor hits that ruin the bet imo. That's why you'll only see me bet underdogs w/ spreads and favorites w/ moneylines.

Where are hearing that Rockets team is going to the funeral today? I'm looking for it but can't find link.. I still think this is under no matter what, if its blow out its under if its close its under, its really tough to get mad points back to back and feel like vegas wants us to take over just based on how Rockets have been going crazy latley

Taking the Thunder, for example, against the Hawks earlier this year where they were 10pt favorites at home and lost outright would be an example of a "bad spot" or "trap" game. Those are the ones I try to avoid, at the lulls of the season where favorites are ripe for upsets.
In the case of these three games, though, we have an angle for each:
Thunder - playing vs an extremely tired Rockets team on the back end of a b2b and also attending a funeral this afternoon. Also, playing against former teammate, James Harden, who they definitely want to beat. 10pt favorites against a good Rockets team also suggests Vegas feels they will roll.
Clippers - have lost 4 in a row and are desperately looking for a win. Del Negro ran practice for 2.5hrs yesterday strictly focusing on defense. Chris Paul even stated that they will come out of the gates hard tonight. T-Wolves are also on the second leg of a b2b. And, of course, again the Clippers are almost 10pt faves even after a 4 game losing streak and Kevin Love's return. Vegas is on our side here, as well.
Hawks - Fading Charlotte, plain and simple. Atl has beat Charlotte 9 out their last 10 meetings and I see Charlotte losing almost all road games in the near future. They're a young team that will inevitably fall back to earth. Definitely will not be close to .500 by the All-Star Break.

You could flip all of those with reasoning as well. Playing this heavy NBA chalk is suicidal.
Houston - Will play inspired basketball for the McHale Family, Harden will go off on the team that dumped him
TWolves - Love finally got the protection off his hand and went off for 20+/20+, Clippers are playing exceptionally bad ball right now so "being due" is one way to get creamed in sports betting, Clips lost to Warriors and Cavs back to back at home a couple weeks ago
Bobcats - Still heavily undervalued for a team that is above .500 on the year, they got absolutely crushed last game against the Thunder so they will be looking for redemption tonight
