Games after the Ravens and Steelers play are always low scoring.  Add in this matchup and the weather and I think you have the makings of a big UNDER.  Good luck.

YTD (NBA): 37-21-2 ATS (BIG PLAY!!!: 5-3 ATS)

Split the two games last night, really bummed that ATL/GSW game didn't go over after it started out so quick.  It's just so hard to take any game Atlanta is involved in as they have a revolving door of injuries and Trae Young is really the only star they have.  In my opinion, they need to trade him and start over.  Their defense is atrociously non-existent and then they end up getting blown out.

Tonight is a similar story as I really like the TOTALS and think we can have a 3-0 night:

UNDER 221.5 (DET/CHA):  I had played this a month or so ago and while I don't expect that easy of a cover as last time out, the last 5 between these two in Charlotte have gone under the number

OVER 225.5 (MIN/TOR):  Minnesota has been covering the total to the over on the road and the same can be said for Toronto at home, having covered 11 of their past 12 to the over when playing in Canada.

OVER 224 (UTAH/SAS)...BIG PLAY!!!:  The over is 16-5 the last 21 times these two have played in SA.  With the way the Jazz are handling their defense and the way the Spurs can run I think this is easily a big play.

I almost made all of these BIG PLAYS but really want to be a bit selective with those. It's just a random Thursday night in the NBA so no need to press.  But I do really like all three.  As always, do your own research and, tail or fade, good luck to all...

Can't get that character at the end of the posting removed even after trying to edit it.  Finally got a new computer today as mine has to be sent out for repair so maybe it's something related to that.

YTD (NBA): 36-20-2 ATS (BIG PLAY!!!: 5-3 ATS)

One play, one loss last night.  Moving on to tonight:

LAC (+4):  I believe the Clippers are something like 18-3 SU vs. the Magic in the past 20, not even sure what that looks like on their home court.  

OVER 239 (ATL/GSW):  This game has gone over in 5 out of the past 6 times these two have played and 4 out of 5 when they play in SF.  Not to mention two of the higher scoring teams and, without sounding like a broken record, Atlanta hemorrhages points.  No reason they don't get over 240 here.

Resisted making either of these a big play as I want to get another 2-0 night under my belt before putting more units on the line.  As always, tail or fade, good luck to all...

yes only one play no reason to reach for plays that I have no feel for personally. If anything else comes up I will add them but for now I’m sticking with one and done. 

YTD (NBA): 36-19-2 ATS (BIG PLAY!!!: 5-3 ATS)

Not a ton of time taking my computer to get fixed finally.  No idea what goes on in these threads or what I have done to anyone out there.  Legit..moderators do nothing and I have a 5-0 night and am getting harassed?!?  More puzzlingly over a record that is accurate with other fools doing no research as to the veracity of the libel and jumping on the bandwagon.  So I'm just going to keep doing my thing and hopefully the wins will quiet the others.

Here is what I am personally playing tonight:

UNDER 221.5 (NO/DAL):  Dallas is 23-8 to the UNDER in their past 31 home games.  Pretty solid if you like unders.  The Pels have gone under in 5 of their last 6 games.  The H2H doesn't tell us very much or else this would have been a big play.  As it stands, it's my only play for the night.

Hoping everyone is having a strong start to your week.  Let's keep the good times rolling and stay positive.  As always, do your own research, tail or fade, good luck to all...

Why not 3-0?  I went 5-0 last night so totally doable.  Solid sides keep up the good work 

Moderators do nothing.  The UNRANKEDCHUMP also spews falsehoods.  No idea what I ever did to the bottom dweller.  Record is spot on, even went back yesterday to ensure.  

Was 30-17-2 going into the games a few nights ago- still can't believe the NYK didn't get over that game but they didn't.  Was a big play so I took a 2 unit loss.  But the Houston/Chicago game sailed over so I do get to count the win there too.  BIG PLAYS are worth two units.  Simple math.  1 unit for W and 2 units for L.  That comes out to 31-19-2 as stated in my record.

Things changed after the sweep last night and the big ML hit, this after a miserable NBA season last year.  But NBA has been, over the past 10+ years posting on here, one of my best sports. Even though I have a winning record in all of them, NBA was not so kind last year.  Obviously this is a new year and I'm happy to get off to a good start but I know there will be rocky times as well.  Happy if I have helped anyone that's why I come on here and do it.

UPADTED YTD: 36-19-2 ATS (BIG PLAY!!!: 5-3 ATS)

And if you're wondering, I only took ONE unit for the ML hit on the underdog even though it payed out more than that.  Big play gets the 2 units and so the record stands at what is posted above.  Will be back later, thanks for any support.  

It's 31-20.  NO idea what you are talking about.  It's called correct math.

Won the second game as well.  That makes for a pretty profitable night.  No idea what the negativity is for I take time to post and win.  Who are some of you?  

3-0 tonight including a big money line hit on the Bulls and the BIG PLAY.  Hoping the Clippers can hang on here.

Bang!  Solid win with the Bulls.  Some times these trends are so spot on.  Big hit for me personally.

Never easy but you’re having a solid season.  Good luck tonight buddy  

YTD (NBA):  31-19-2 ATS (BIG PLAY!!!: 4-3 ATS)

So frustrated my computer keeps shutting off automatically so I'm taking it to Apple tomorrow but it erased my post and plays for NBA.  Did the same for me in the NFL forum yesterday and of course I went 4-0 unposted.  Which doesnt' help my record.  This machine has a mind of its own as I would have gladly let it shut off for my CFB plays which were brutal this weekend.  So apologies but doing my best and trying to get this up and posted.

CHICAGO (+4.5) BIG PLAY and ML (+150):  Chicago got bulldozed last night but I don't think that's horrible as it still gave Zach Levine time to play and get acclimated after his long layoff.  Tonight will be a different story as Chicago is 9-1 SU in its last 10 games when playing on the road against Detroit and that's not from the Michael Jordan days.  I like them to get a road W here and the line is very generous given the trends.

UNDER 236.5 (ATL/SAC):  There have been extremely solid trends to the UNDER when both of these teams square off and the total is a bit high even given the notion that Atlanta hemorrhages points.  In fact, the total has gone UNDER in 5 of Sacramento's last 6 games when playing at home against Atlanta.  I think tonight is no different.

LAC (+5):  They might very well win tonight.  I think they come to play and if this thing gets into a track meet I like the Clippers chances of at least keeping it close.

That's all I have for tonight, going to make an NFL play too.  Hoping everyone is having a great weekend.  As always, tail or fade, good luck to all...

These have been higher pretty much all day.  Not saying those aren't HIS numbers but you are not wrong with the line movements shooting up.  I didn't even have access to them until this AM when they opened way higher.  Good luck today very strong trends on the Houston/Milwaukee over 

YTD (NBA):  30-17-2 ATS (BIG PLAY!!!: 4-2 ATS)

Had a solid 5-3 night last time out but have had an overall exhausting weekend dealing with a move.  That being said, these are the games I am playing for tonight:

OVER 220 (BRK/NYK)...BIG PLAY!!!:  Somehow the Knicks seem to always be playing to the over and tonight should be no different.  These two teams squared off two nights ago and they went over 240.  The trends also point towards an over in this matchup especially when playing in NYK.

OVER 234 (HOU/CHI):  These teams have very high pace of play and with the trends showing that the total has gone OVER in 8 of Chicago’s last 11 games against Houston.  Additionally, the total has gone OVER in 10 of Houston’s last 14 games when playing on the road against Chicago.  Pretty strong stats for me to put money on.  Just don't want to make every play a big play but this one is a strong play.

That's it for tonight, two totals, one of which is a big play.  I hope everyone had a great Sunday.  As always, do your own research and, as always, tail or fade good luck to all...

OVER 57 (LSU/FL)

YTD (CFB):  35-32-2 ATS (BIG PLAY!!!: 3-6 ATS)

No idea what happened to UCLA in that 4th quarter but it was quite the meltdown.  Once they missed that FG I knew we were in trouble but then going for it on 4th and 20 in your own territory is just asinine.  Still a really great week but lost a unit last night.  Not a lot of time, so posting the few early games I like:

NAVY (+7.5)...BIG PLAY!!!:  I bought a half point here as the juice was -105 so it's almost negliglible.  Both of these teams are having strong seasons but Navy's is more remarkable.  I know that Tulane are really solid on the road with the exception of when they play Navy.  When they do, Tulane are a measly 1-8 SU in their last 9 games and I can get a TD at home so...

UTAH (+13.5):  I don't think we will need the half here but watch me eat my words.  The Utes are still really good and in an early game for both squads I see this being a bit closer than the 13.5 the oddsmakers have this set at.  Add to that the Utes have been excellent vs. the Buffs in Colorado and I'm taking my chances here

OHIO STATE (-28):  Northwestern might not score.  Even at home.  

Will be back later on to assess the damage. Hoping everyone is having a profitable week and will have a very strong Saturday.  As always, tail or fade, good luck to all...

@GotPhoTai

I realize the error but couldn't go back to edit it.  Thanks for pointing that out though!

Thanks guys.  Lots will change on the record after tonight lol.  A sweep would be ALMOST unimaginable (I say almost b/c I already imagined that happening )

YTD (CFB):  34-30-2 ATS (BIG PLAY!!!: 3-5 ATS)

Been grabbing units this week which is nice but hasn't been an overall great season.  Though I guess winning record in posting in all the leagues so there's something to be said for that.  But with only a few weeks left I'm just trying to have a strong finish and climb towards 60%.  Gonna be tough but the beginning of this week has been kind.  This is what I really like tonight:

UTSA (-2):  So tempting to try and play this one to the OVER as both teams have SMASHED their ATS vs. the OVER but the truth is in the past 10 these teams have played, the over is just 3-7 ATS.  With it set so high I started to look more closely at the game and at the sides in general.  That's when I saw over the past 6 games played at home vs. Texas State the Roadrunners are both 5-1 SU and 5-1 ATS.  With a short line here I was really tempted to also double down on it but the obscurity of this game on a Friday night CFB is keeping it a normal sized wager.

UCLA (+4)...BIG PLAY!!!:  Washington are 5-14-1 ATS in their last 20 games against UCLA.  Add to that one team is playing well and the other isn't and I think the 4 is awful generous even if the Bruins are on the road (where they actually have a better record than at home).  The Huskies are 5-0 at home but when you look at the matchups, they beat teams like Michigan who we now know are not very good, USC, another pretender, and Eastern Michigan.  Oh and they trashed lowly Northwestern.  I'm NOT at all saying that UCLA is better than that grouping, but I will back the Bruins and their 6-3 ATS record and will play this for a sizable return.  Close game.

Hoping everyone is having a solid and profitable week.  Lots of games and lots of money to be made, just do your own research, nobody is perfect.  But at least that way you stand behind your own cash.  As always, tail or fade, good luck to all. 

YTD (NBA):  25-14-2 ATS (BIG PLAY!!!: 3-1 ATS)

Posting this on the earlier side b/c I have a few things to tackle in the next couple of hours and because I like a handful of games so I expect my record to change substantially (for the better) after tonight.  Not going to wait for the inactive at this point.  Hated last night's game so sat it out but tonight is another story:

PHILADELPHIA ML (+120):  Thank you, I"ll take that.  Sure, the Sixers haven't been good at all of late but they are just getting Embiid back and his minutes will slowly increase.  But I think they have the Magic's number here and given they are 7-0 SU in their last 7 games when playing on the road against Orlando and 14-1 SU in its last 15 games when playing Orlando, I'm gladly going to roll with those trends.

DETROIT (-2):  Laughable, right?  Backing the lowly Pistons on the road.  Except they are not so lowly this year and they are 11-2 ATS in its last 13 games when playing Toronto with most those games going over the number when the teams play in Canada.

LAL (-3):  AD should be back tonight to try and defend Wemby.  Both these teams have pretty high pace of play and I think in a game like this the loss of Popovich will be felt.  Additionally they are San 2-8 SU in their last 10 games when playing at home against LA Lakers and while I still drop 3 points, I think that's short enough to get the cover.

LAC (+5)...BIG PLAY!!!:  These two teams squared off a couple of nights ago and I said it just missed being a big play.  Not this time though as I think the notion that the Clippers are 15-6 SU in the last 21 vs Houston, including the loss a couple of nights ago, puts them in a VERY good position to take this victory home.

OKC (-8):  This will unfortunately for Phoenix not be close.  The Thunder will score all over the Suns porous defense and with both Beal and Durant missing, it will be hard for the Suns to keep up.  Almost took the over as well in this game as they have played 8 of the last 9 OVER when squaring off in OKC

MINNESOTA (-1)...BIG PLAY!!!:  At some point the Kings will find consistency and so will Minnesota but for the moment I will back the trends here as the Kings are missing both Monk and DeRozan and I think it's going to be hard for them to come out victorious in a matchup that has seen Minnesota go 5-1 ATS and SU in its last 6 games when playing on the road against Sacramento

By far the biggest slate of the year and might remain that way throughout the season given the angles on the games that are in our favor for tonight.  I encourage everyone to do their own research and please bear in mind I also put cash on these so keep the comments positive.  As always, tail or fade, good luck to all...
