Record 12-6
Lox for today:
Jazz ml -165: Jazz are the more reliable team as seen throughout the entire season. They lead the league in limiting opponents ppg and are a top 10 offense efficiency team. The jazz are 8-2 su vs the wolves in the past 10 games. The wolves are still way too unpredictable to back at this point, having just lost to the sixers really doesnt help raise confident in such a young team. I believe the jazz cover the tiny spread, but i rather be safe than sorry, so a little less profit by taking the ml, but more confidence.
Raptors ml -130: Despite the raptors being the better team clearly, the bulls arent exactly good. One thing i will say about the bulls is that they have always been a thorn in the raptors side. Theyve won 9 out of the last 10 games vs the raptors, but i feel like that trend is going to be broken tonight. The bulls are extremely inconsistent and the raptors despite a brief hiccup, have been extremely reliable ats this season, derozan is having an mvp caliber season and i dont really see how the bulls win this one, unless buckets goes off again, but i cant see that.
Hawks ml -125: Its the mavs. That should be enough of a reason to take the hawks. Hawks have been performing more consistent of late. The hawks are 5-0 su last 5 vs dallas and 7-3 last 10. The hawks have won their last 5, dallas has won just 2 in the past 5, and they werent convincing wins, coming off of the lakers, and luckily in my books the wizards. The hawks are 4-1 ats their last 5 and dallas is 0-5 ats last 5 games vs the hawks.
Spurs/hornets over 210: Looking at recent trends, the spurs have put up 110+ their past 5 games, hornets have done almost the same, putting up 108+ their past 4 games. The over has hit 6 out of 7 for the hornets past 7 games and 5 of 6 for the spurs. The absence of batum and zeller will hurt their defense, helping inflate the games total.
Best of luck to those tailing, should be a good night.
