I think New York has been playing great basketball the last few games, and I cant believe I even just wrote that but it is true.
However Denver is embarking on a tough trip with 5 games in 7 nights against, NY, BOS, TOR, ORL, and DAL.
I think they will be motivated to put this one away early and I always like teams on the first game of a trip you usually get maximum effort.
The over looks good here as well but I missed the boat at 217 last night and not sure I can buy in at 219.5.
Other leans
LAC +10 (so hard to put my money on them)
IND +4 & ML
Short list of games tonight. How about LAC + 9.5 vs DAL. GL to all.
Washington is back home off a long road trip, a nice let down place
I guess you get to decide which horrible stat you want to fade:
LAC against teams with a win percentage of 60 to 70.
SU: 2-13 (-14.3)
ATS: 5-10-0 (-6.5) avg line: 7.9
O/U: 10-4-1 (4.1) avg total: 200.5
On the road in this spot
SU: 0-9 (-17.6)
ATS: 3-6-0 (-6.8) avg line: 10.8
O/U: 5-3-1 (2.3) avg total: 200.8
So they lose by an average of 14.4 points overall and 17.6 points on the road.
As bad as they are overall at home
SU: 24-11 (1.5)
ATS: 7-27-1 (-6.0) avg line: -7.5
O/U: 21-14-0 (0.9) avg total: 200.8
DAL is almost perfect (and really they are perfect, the one game is an early season anomoly) playing at home against teams with a win percentage below .500
SU: 13-3 (1.4)
ATS: 1-15-0 (-8.4) avg line: -9.8
O/U: 10-6-0 (0.4) avg total: 203.1
Note that the one cover was on 11/03/09 when they played UTA and UTA happened to be 1-2.
So they win by an average of 1.5 points.
Good Luck,
Bart

Clippers at Mavs
Pick: Clippers +10
This is hard to understand. The Dallas Mavericks are 0-26-1 ATS as favorites at home of 4 or more points. Factor in that NBA double digit favorites are just 66-108 ATS this year. Dallas is led in scoring with Dirk Nowitzki and his 24.9 points a game. Guard Jason Terry scores 17 points a game. The Mavericks score 101.6 points a game. Dallas is 5-16-1 ATS after allowing 100 or more points in their last game and they are 0-7 ATS on Tuesday. The Clippers are led in scoring by Center Chris Kaman and his 18.7 points and 9.1 rebounds a game. Shooting Guard Eric Gordon scores 17.1 points a game. Point guard Baron Davis scores 15.2 points and 7.9 assists a game. Shooting guard Rasual Butler scores 12 points a game. The underdog in this series is 4-1 ATS the last 5 meetings and the road team is 4-0 ATS the last 4 meetings. 20* NBA GAME OF THE MONTH PLAY ON LA CLIPPERS +
