Seattle at Memphis

The Grizzlies have covered just one of their last six at home as they welcome in the Sonics tonight. Memphis is also a dismal 8-18 ATS their last 26 against Seattle, while the Sonics are 14-4 ATS in their last 18 games against a team with a losing SU record. The Sonics have lost eight in a row SU, while the Grizzlies have lost five in a row SU. Something has to give tonight. The key here is defense, where Memphis ranks 29th overall and Seattle ranks 26th. However, Seattle ranks 13th in field goal percentage on defense while Memphis ranks 29th. I'll take my chances and the points with Seattle today.

Seattle+6

Golden St at Chicago


The Warriors are 5-1 ATS in their last six games following a SU loss, coming off a defeat in Indiana two nights ago. Still, they are winners of three of their last four as they head to Chicago tonight. The Bulls lost by 30 the last time the Warriors visited, and more recently are 1-7 ATS in their last eight home games. The Bulls are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games overall and are 6-21 ATS in their last 27 against the Pacific division. They have covered just three of 16 against the West, and will lose by double digits tonight.

Golden St
-1.5 (a no-brainer)

Charlotte at New Orleans

I'm just expecting a ton of points to be scored in this game. New Orleans is averaging 99 points per game at home while Charlotte allows over 101 points per game on the road. New Orleans should easily reach the century mark in this game if not a whole bunch more.
3 of Charlotte's last 4 games have easily cashed the over and tonight should be no different because they can score points and they don't defend. Take the over here, it should be cake.

OVA 192.5



Philadelphia 76ers (15-24) at Boston Celtics (31-6)

The Celtics bounced back from its back-to-back losses, beating the hot Trail Blazers, 100-90 at home on Wednesday. Look for Boston to be in control tonight at TD Banknorth Garden. The 76ers will be in a tight spot scoring against the big and strong Celtics. Boston has allowed an average of just 87 points per game. The total has gone ‘under’ in ten of the last 14 clashes between these two rivals in Boston.

Unda 185

X-tra's

Toronto-6
NYork+8.5
