03-17-18 | Pistons +8.5 v. Blazers | Top | 87-100 | Loss | -107 | 12 h 46 m | Show |
At 10:05 pm, our selection is on the Detroit Pistons + the points over Portland. The Blazers have won 11 in a row, and have covered their last eight. But don't be surprised if Detroit gives them a run for their money on Saturday night. Detroit has won and covered five straight vs. the Blazers (by an average of 13 ppg), including a 20-point blowout win 40 days ago in Motown. Even worse: Portland falls into a negative 64-132 ATS system of mine which goes against certain teams off 7+ ATS wins. Take Detroit + the points. NBA Elite Info Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

03-11-18 | 76ers -6 v. Nets | Top | 120-97 | Win | 100 | 12 h 14 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia 76ers minus the points over the Brooklyn Nets. Brooklyn's a poor 21-45 on the season, but did pull off an upset win in its previous game, 125-111, at Charlotte. One of the things I love to do is play against bad teams off wins. And Brooklyn's upset win has placed Kenny Atkinson's men in a negative 36-94 ATS system of mine which fades certain bad teams off upset wins. Meanwhile, Philly's off an upset loss to the Miami Heat. But the Sixers have cashed 75% ATS over the past five seasons off an upset road loss. And they're also 54-29 ATS the last three seasons off any road defeat. Take the 76ers minus the points. NBA Division Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-06-18 | Heat v. Wizards -5 | Top | 113-117 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 16 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Washington Wizards minus the points over Miami. The Wizards play this game with revenge from a 3-point home loss to their division rival earlier this season. But I love them to avenge that defeat tonight, as the Wizards come into this game off an upset loss here, at home, to the Indiana Pacers. And Washington is a spectacular 10-0 ATS off an upset loss when matched up against an unrested foe. With Miami having to play last night vs. Phoenix, we'll take Washington tonight to blow out the Heat. Lay the points. NBA Elite Info Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-02-18 | Wolves v. Jazz -7 | Top | 108-116 | Win | 100 | 11 h 58 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the Utah Jazz minus the points over Minnesota. Utah lost the first two meetings this season to its division rival. But I love the Jazz to avenge those defeats, as it falls into a 96-41 ATS revenge system of mine. Additionally, Utah is 48-27 ATS at home when playing with double-revenge, provided it was not an underdog of +4 or more points in the current game. Take the Jazz. NBA Payback Payday. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-02-18 | Warriors -12.5 v. Hawks | Top | 114-109 | Loss | -113 | 12 h 53 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Golden State Warriors minus the points over Atlanta. The Hawks upset the Indiana Pacers, here at home, on Wednesday, but have a big step-up in class tonight. Golden State owns the 2nd best record in the league, and will be motivated to blow out the Hawks, as they're fighting Houston for the overall #1 record. Since 1990, double-digit home underdogs have covered just 12 of 51 games off an upset home win. Take the Warriors. NBA Road Warrior Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-28-18 | Rockets -8 v. Clippers | Top | 105-92 | Win | 100 | 11 h 15 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the Houston Rockets minus the points over the Los Angeles Clippers. Last night, the Clippers went into Portland, and upset the Nuggets, 122-120. Unfortunately, they won't have the benefit of a night off when they take on the high-octane Rockets tonight. And unrested home teams, off upset road dog wins, have cashed just 33% since 1990 vs. rested foes off back-to-back SU/ATS wins. Take Houston to win its 14th straight game, and to blow out Los Angeles. NBA ROAD WARRIOR WINNER. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-26-18 | Rockets v. Jazz +2.5 | Top | 96-85 | Loss | -116 | 18 h 34 m | Show |
At 9:05 pm, our selection is on the Utah Jazz over the Houston Rockets. The Rockets have won 12 straight, but that streak will be put to the ultimate test tonight. And that's because Houston will be on the road against a Jazz club which has won 12 of its last 13 games. And Utah's hot stretch has included victories against Golden State, Toronto and San Antonio so it's stepped up against the best opponents. Tonight, the Jazz will get the additional benefit of playing with rest, while Houston will be unrested following a game in Denver. And unrested teams are an awful 137-172 ATS vs. the Utah Jazz in Salt Lake City, when Utah's rested. Even worse, the Rockets are playing two games in two nights in two high-altitude cities (Denver, Salt Lake City). And NBA teams that played in those two cities back to back games, have covered just 23% in the 2nd game, if they were off a win, and playing a rested opponent. Likewise, the Jazz are 78-53 ATS at home when rested, and playing an unrested foe off a win, including 27-14 ATS as an underdog. Take Utah. Western Conference Game of the Month! Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

02-25-18 | 76ers v. Wizards -1.5 | Top | 94-109 | Win | 100 | 14 h 52 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Washington Wizards minus the points over Philadelphia. The Wizards were upset by Charlotte in their last game. But Washington is a terrific 89% ATS at home the past three seasons at home off an upset loss by double-digits. Even better: the Wizards are playing tonight with double revenge from losses in November + February to the Sixers. And NBA favorites have cashed 62% in the regular season since 1990 off upset losses, if they were playing with double-revenge. Take the Wizards on Sunday. High roller winner. |
|||||||
02-24-18 | Thunder v. Warriors -9.5 | Top | 80-112 | Win | 100 | 7 h 56 m | Show |
At 8:35 pm, our selection is on the Golden State Warriors minus the points over Oklahoma City. The Thunder upset Golden State in each of the two previous meetings this season. But with double-revenge, I look for the Warriors to rout OKC tonight, as Golden State's 11-0 ATS its last 11 when playing with same-season double revenge vs. .700 (or worse) foes. Take the Warriors. NBA Payback Payday. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-22-18 | Clippers v. Warriors -10.5 | Top | 127-134 | Loss | -102 | 16 h 27 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the Golden State Warriors minus the points over the Los Angeles Clippers. These two teams met here in Oakland back on January 10, and the Clippers upset the Warriors, 125-106, as a 12-point underdog. But that was a rare win for Doc Rivers’ squad against Golden State, as the Clippers had lost the previous 12 meetings, and gone 4-8 ATS in those games. I look for things to get back to normal on Thursday, and for the Warriors to blow out the Clippers, as Golden State is 18-7 ATS in the regular season when playing with revenge vs. a foe whose win percentage is greater than .415. Additionally, the Clippers are on a two-game win streak, including a 129-119 upset win over the Celtics before the All-Star Break, while the Warriors lost to Portland in their last game. That doesn’t bode well for Los Angeles, as NBA teams off back to back wins that scored more than 116 points in their previous game are a poor 95-134 ATS vs. foes off a loss. Finally, in their first game after the All-Star Break, home teams off a loss that were playing with revenge have gone 63-42 ATS since 1991. Take Golden State. NBA TV Game of the Month! Good luck, as always…Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-15-18 | Lakers v. Wolves -10 | Top | 111-119 | Loss | -105 | 16 h 29 m | Show |
At 9:05 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Timberwolves minus the points over the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are in a tough spot in this ballgame, as it’s their last game going into the All Star Break. And, even worse for the Lakers, they’re on the road, they’re playing without rest, and their opponent — the Minnesota Timberwolves — are off a loss. That doesn’t bode well for the Lakers, as unrested NBA teams playing on the road, in their final game before the break, are an awful 30-53 ATS vs. foes off a loss. Take the Timberwolves. Good luck, as always…Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-14-18 | Pacers v. Nets +4.5 | Top | 108-103 | Loss | -105 | 17 h 50 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Brooklyn Nets + the points over Indiana. The Pacers are off a high-scoring, 121-113 win over the Knicks in their last game (their 2nd straight win, overall). But off those two games, we'll fade Indy on the road, as NBA teams off back to back wins are a soft 93-133 ATS if they scored more than 116 in their previous game, and their opponent is off a loss. Even worse: Indiana is a poor 13-24 ATS on the road off a win, while Brooklyn is a solid 17-5 ATS as an underdog vs. a foe off a win. Take the Nets + the points. NBA Roadkill Winner. Good luck, as always....Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-14-18 | Hawks v. Pistons -8.5 | Top | 98-104 | Loss | -105 | 17 h 6 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Detroit Pistons minus the points over Atlanta. These two teams met just three days ago, and the Hawks upset the Pistons, 118-115, as a 4-point home underdog. (Detroit then followed up that loss with a home loss to the Pelicans.) But I love Detroit to avenge that defeat tonight, as the Hawks are an awful 26-55 ATS on the road when playing a rested, revenge-minded foe which Atlanta upset in the previous meeting, including 5-23 ATS since 2007. That doesn't bode well for Atlanta. And neither does the fact that the Pistons are 32-21 ATS their last 53 off an upset defeat. Take Detroit. NBA Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-11-18 | Knicks +9 v. Pacers | Top | 113-121 | Win | 100 | 6 h 35 m | Show |
At 5:05 pm, our selection is on the New York Knicks + the points over Indiana. The Knicks were blown out, 113-88, three days ago by Toronto. That was their first game since their All-Star, Kristaps Porzingis, was injured. And it also was their third straight ATS defeat. But I look for the Knicks to snap their losing streak this afternoon, as rested NBA road teams off back to back ATS defeats are 166-118 ATS as underdogs of 8+ points vs. foes that covered by 10+ in their previous game. With Indiana, indeed, off a double-digit cover on Friday vs. Boston, we'll fade the Pacers today. Take New York. NBA High Roller Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-11-18 | Cavs +5 v. Celtics | Top | 121-99 | Win | 100 | 12 h 53 m | Show |
At 3:35 pm, our selection is on the Cleveland Cavaliers + the points over Boston. The Cavaliers' front office orchestrated some great trades to not only shed the team of several players who just weren't working out (Isaiah Thomas, Derrick Rose, Jae Crowder), but also to bring in a great mix of young (Larry Nance, Jr.; Jordan Clarkson; Rodney Hood) and veteran (George Hill) talent. The Cavs were able to hold a practice yesterday on their off day to work on the integration of the new players. All of the players will be available today, though Cleveland's starting lineup should be similar (with one exception) to the one used in its last game, a blowout win over Atlanta. Thus, I expect LeBron James, Cedi Osman and Tristan Thompson to start in the frontcourt, with JR Smith and newcomer George Hill in the backcourt. Once Kevin Love returns, Cleveland will once again be the team to beat in the Eastern Conference. But even without Love, I give them the edge this afternoon vs. Boston. Take the Cavs + the points. NBA Game of the Week. Good luck, as always....Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-10-18 | Clippers v. 76ers -3 | Top | 98-112 | Win | 100 | 8 h 36 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia 76ers minus the points over the Clippers. The 76ers have won and covered eight straight games here, at home, including a 100-82 beatdown of New Orleans last night. And Philly is 31-15 ATS at home since January 1, 2017. That bodes well for the 76ers tonight. Also, Philly is a solid 21-9 ATS after covering the spread by 10+ points in its previous game. Lay the points with the Sixers. NBA High Roller. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-09-18 | Pacers +4.5 v. Celtics | Top | 97-91 | Win | 100 | 8 h 35 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Indiana Pacers + the points over the Boston Celtics. Interestingly, both of these teams come off of games vs. the Wizards. Boston had to go to overtime last night to defeat Washington, so will be a bit tired tonight vs. the Pacers. That doesn't bode well for Boston, as it will be facing a very well-rested Pacers team which has had the last 3 days off following its home loss to the Wizards on Monday. Even better: Indy will be playing with revenge tonight from a 1-point loss suffered in their previous meeting, in December. And the Pacers are 131-71 ATS off a loss when rested, and playing with revenge vs. an opponent off a win. Take Indiana. NBA Elite Info. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-07-18 | Spurs -9.5 v. Suns | Top | 129-81 | Win | 100 | 11 h 27 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the San Antonio Spurs minus the points over Phoenix. The Spurs have lost their last three games against the point spread. And that bodes well for the Silver and Black tonight, as they're 32-8 ATS as road favorites of -10 or less points, if they're playing a .520 (or worse) opponent. Phoenix will be without its best player -- Devin Booker -- tonight, so that bodes well for the Spurs. Moreover, the Suns have the worst defensive efficiency rating in the NBA, so the Spurs' offense should get back on track. Lay the points. NBA Elite Info Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
