Wiz's "POD" play

LA Lakers at New York

The Lakers have won six of their last seven and owns the West's best record at 37-9. However, they are just 23-23 ATS, including 10-9 on the road where they are 14-9 SU.Meanwhile, the Knicks have won 6 of their last 7 games (7-0 ATS) and will be looking for their SIXTH straight home win.
Does NY step up considering Vegas is giving them the benefit of the doubt here? Remember, this is the same team that beat the Cavs, Houston, Phoenix and Chicago at home. NY has actually covered 4 of 5 from the Lakers as well. I know it sounds nuts, but I think NY will be very game here.
Keep in mind that this is the 2nd biggest public play today on the Lakers at 76% only 2nd to the Spurs on the road at GS.Which to me it's good to fade the public when a high % is on a particular team(most times).

Memphis at Washington

The Wizards are 13-6 ATS their last 19 as a home favorite of five to 10.5 as they battle the Grizzlies tonight. The Grizzlies are 17-35-1 ATS in their last 53 games as an underdog of 5.0-10.5, and are just 3-8 ATS in their last 11 vs. the Southeast. The Grizz are 0-8 ATS in their last eight games vs. a team with a losing record, and don't be suprised if they (Memphis) get rocked in DC tonight.


Niagara at Iona (consideration play)

The Gaels being favored here? Not sure I agree. Niagara clearly has shown to be the stronger and more consistent team throughout the season, and they have won four of the last five meetings. 7-4 on the road this season for the Purples Eagles, and they come through to keep in contention for the MAAC title.




Wiz's "POD" play is on:New York+10/Washington-1 (tease)
