Toronto Raptors @ Philadelphia 76ers -12 Raptors

I have watched the last few Toronto games. They were very unlucky to lose against the Grizzlies. They played great basketball and I would say they outplayed the Grizzlies but they could not shoot the ball at all. They could not buy a three to drop although they were mostly wide open shots. Loved their effort on the glasse and on the defensive end. Toronto shoots a LOT of jump shots. 76ers are terrible at guarding the perimeter and they allow a lot of 3 point shots. That game suits the Raptors perfectly. They are in a good spot starting to play better again and bouncing back from a loss to the Grizzlies. 76ers are getting blown out by pretty much every team and they are also battling with injuries.
My only concern is that the Raptors have already beaten the crap out of this 76ers team twice this year. It doesn't happen often that one team blow out a team three time in a row in this league. But the situation is perfect for the Raptors to do exactly that.

Chicago Bulls @ Dallas Mavericks +7 Bulls

A lot of value here in this line. 2 equally strong teams playing here and to get 7 points for the Bulls is great. They got themselves back to playing good basketball yesterday against the Spurs and I hope they can keep it going today in Dallas. Dallas are a jump shooting team and the Bulls have solid defenders guarding the perimeter and they do not allow a lot of 3 points shots do be made by their oponents. I think this is a solid matchup and I see it going all the way. Dallas will probably win in the end but 7 points is a huge value bet for me.

OKC @Atlanta Hawks -4 Hawks

Two strong teams, one is on fire and the other is starting to play better. The Hawks have a much better defense and that is their biggest advantage in this matchup. They also move the ball great and have good defenders to guard Westbrook and Durant and make it tough for them. OKC on a road trip and Hawks at home rested, it is just a much better situation for the Hawks and they should edge this one if they bring their top play.

Respectfully disagree on the Bulls. They are traveling from chi town to Dallas. They just beat the Spurs in a blowout where pops threw in the towel. Very tough game to win and cover. I honestly see this as a Dallas blowout. But agree on the other two. Good luck

I agree that this play is the riskiest of the 3 but I like the value in 7 points and still think they can keep it close. We will see. BOL

As for playing totals, I played about 7 or 8 total plays at the start of the season and went 3-4 with them I think, they are also included in my record. But I felt I am much more comfortable choosing the sides. I am sure I will come back to totals at some point but not in the very near future.

Noah upgraded from doubtful to Questionable, defense will improve with him if he plays.

The last paragraph jumped to me as well, capping the game, also with Raptors might look ahead for Detroit. At home, I still would take them, but right now...think its a pass.

I got it yesterday itself. Yes it is now at 12 as I have also got this for parlay along with NO-Min under 199. I use Ladbrokes Australia.

I like the write ups.

You asked who isn't on Atlanta I'm not. I think this is a great game for OK to go in and win straight up. They are finally fully healthy and want to move up the charts. they just blew out GS and they have the players to give Atlanta all kinds of fits. What better way for OK to make a statement across the NBA by going in and beating Atlanta tonight I think they have had this one circled for a while

How about Atlanta is going for history tonight with a 15th straight win most ever in Hawks History .... That place is gonna be packed . I think the thunder are one of the few teams who could come in here tonight and ruin the party but I just don't see it . Not as good as Atlanta has been playing . The Thunder are pushing for a run for the playoffs so it will be close . Tough to bet AGAINST the Hawks though

Like the picks. I like the Bulls as well. I am a Bulls fan and i was on them last night. They had a team meeting and are gonna step up there game in 2nd half of season. We did play last night but rested starters in 4th. Also this is a revenge game for a double OT game last month. Bulls had the game in Reg. till Hinrichs dumbass fouled Monte shooting 3 then Monte was unconcious in the OT's. anyways bulls will get revenge i like them straight up but cant argue taking the points. Bulls will D em up too. like last night when the Spurs had 54 points with 5 left in the 3rd.
