12-26-19 | Grizzlies +6 v. Thunder | Top | 110-97 | Win | 100 | 4 h 40 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON: Memphis Grizzlies +6 @ Oklahoma City Thunder, 8PM ET The situation really couldn’t be any better to play on the Grizzlies tonight as they are off an embarrassing loss to the Spurs in which they gave up 145 points AND recently loss to OKC on Dec 18th. In that game the Grizzlies held a 21-point advantage that the Thunder eventually overcame to win by 4-points. Memphis held a decisive advantage on the boards, but Oklahoma City benefitted from some ‘home cooking’ with plus +12 free throw makes. OKC also received 20-points, 3-rebounds and 3-assists from Danilo Gallinari who is listed as doubtful for tonight’s game, yet the line is the same as a week ago. OKC has an average margin of victory is +5.1PPG at home this season which is not enough to get the money in this game plus they are in a bad schedule situation. The Thunder recently beat this team, are off a big upset win of the Clippers and have the Mavericks on deck. Memphis has covered 4 of the last five meetings and should cash another ticket tonight. |

12-23-19 | Packers v. Vikings -4 | Top | 23-10 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 36 m | Show |
ASAwins 10* PLAY ON Minnesota -4 over Green Bay, Monday at 8:15 PMET The Packers have been treading on thin ice for quite some time and now and we think it catches up with them here. They are 11-3 on the season but they have been outgained by their opponents 371 YPG to 336 YPG. They rank 21st in the NFL in total offense and 23rd in total defense. Those simply aren’t the numbers of an 11 win team. Last week a struggling Bears offense outgained Green Bay by 123 yards but the Packers pulled out an 8 point win. That was the 7th time this season GB has been outgained yet still won the game. Aaron Rodgers is barely completing 50% of his passes over the last 3 weeks and Green Bay has been held to 24 points or less in 5 of their last 6 games. It’s really tough to keep winning when you’re getting consistently outplayed on the stat sheet. Especially on the road vs a solid team. Minnesota is 6-0 at home with all but one win coming by at least 10 points. Their average margin of victory here in Minneapolis is 13.5 points. In the first meeting the Vikes rolled up 421 yards and held GB to just 335 but the Packers squeaked out a 21-16 win. Minny QB Cousins, while most wouldn’t expect it, is having a better year the Rodgers. He’s completing 70% of his passes (63% for Rogers), with 3,481 yards (Rodgers slightly less at 3,463), 25 TD’s (24 for Rodgers) and a rating of 111.1 (Rodgers is at 100.4). If the Vikings lose here they give Green Bay the NFC North title. A win by Minnesota extends us to next week to determine who wins the division. The fact is the Vikes are better on offense (ranked 9th to 21st for GB), better on defense (14th to 23rd), and the better scoring team (7th to 14th for the Packers). They are also a terrific home team winning 16 of their last 19 home games with 15 of those 16 wins coming by at least a TD. Under Zimmer the Vikings are 28-10 ATS as a home favorite of 7 or less. This has been a tough place for Green Bay to play as their last win in Minnesota was back in 2015. Lay it with the Vikings here. |

12-22-19 | Nuggets v. Lakers -3.5 | Top | 128-104 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 59 m | Show |
ASA Play on: LA Lakers -3.5 over Denver Nuggets, 9:30PM ET – We typically like playing on teams in their first game when a superstar is sitting out. Veteran or even young guys that are bench players get a rare start or extended minutes and typically rise to the challenge. We have no problem with LeBron sitting out for load management, err…a sore rib cage as they still have a top five player in the league that will get more touches. Anthony Davis is one of just a few players in the entire NBA that can carry a team himself and a guy that can get 50 on any given night. The Lakers also get Kyle Kuzma back in the lineup so don’t expect a scoring drop-off here. Add in a veteran PG like Rondo and we don’t expect the Lakers to suffer from not having LBJ in the lineup. Don’t get me wrong, LeBron’s absence would be felt over time, but not in today’s game. The Lakers have the 4th best home differential in the NBA at +11.8PPG and have won 6 of their last seven at home. Denver is just 6-5 SU on the road this year and have an offense that ranks 18th in offensive efficiency at 1.084 points per possession compared to the Lakers 6th ranked OEFF at 1.117PPP. Defensively these two teams are essentially even with the 2nd and 3rd ranked defensive efficiency units. The Lakers have covered 4 of the last five at home against the Nuggets and will get a win here tonight even without Bron. |

12-22-19 | Cardinals +9.5 v. Seahawks | Top | 27-13 | Win | 100 | 5 h 9 m | Show |
ASAwins 10* PLAY ON Arizona +9.5 over Seattle, Sunday at 4:25 PM ET The Seahawks continue to win but also continue to play close games with 10 of their 11 wins coming by 8 points or less. Their miniscule +26 point differential means they have an average winning margin of +2 PPG. Seattle’s injuries are also mounting and we think this will be a very tough game for Seattle. Starting DE Clowney and starting safety Diggs are both doubtful. Starting DT Woods has also just been suspended for 4 games for violating the league’s PED policy. The Seahawk defense ranks 27th overall and 30th in pass defense and we have no doubt that Arizona will be able to score points and keep up in this one. The Cards picked up some confidence last week putting up 38 points vs Cleveland in a win with QB Murray hitting 9 different receivers for receptions. Seattle won the first meeting but the stats were almost identical with each team running 55 offensive snaps and the Seahawks outgaining the Cards by just 19 yards. Arizona is now 4-1-1 ATS this year as a road dog while Seattle is just 4-2 SU at home this year with their wins coming by 1, 1, 6 in OT, and 7 points. Their once vaunted home field advantage has dissipated as the Seahawks are just 10-11-1 ATS their last 22 home tilts. Seattle has a massive game with San Francisco so while a win is needed, a look ahead is not out of the question. This NFC West division game stays close |

12-21-19 | Purdue v. Butler -2 | Top | 61-70 | Win | 100 | 3 h 47 m | Show |
ASAwins 10* PLAY ON Butler -2 over Purdue, Saturday at 2:30 PM ET Two in-state heavyweights to at it on a neutral court in Indianapolis today. While it’s obviously a big game for Purdue, we feel it’s even bigger for Butler as they are often overlooked and get to face off against their in-state big brother. Both teams are fantastic defensively which is why the total on this game sits below 120. However, the Bulldogs are the better shooting team hitting almost 50% of their shots (18th nationally) while Purdue ranks close to 200th in that same category. The Bulldogs have only one loss on the season and that was by a single point @ Baylor who ranks 10th in Ken Pom’s power ratings. They already have 5 outstanding wins over Florida, Stanford, Missouri, Ole Miss, and Minnesota, all ranked in the top 100. The Boilers already have losses vs Marquette, Florida State, Nebraska, and Texas and Butler ranks higher than all 4 of those teams (11th in the power rankings). The one thing that Purdue has the advantage is rebounding but that will be tempered today as starting center, 7’3 Matt Haarms, looks like he will sit with a concussion. Haarms is also their 2nd leading scorer. We definitely like Butler to win today and with the line sitting at just -2 we like the Bulldogs. |

12-19-19 | Rockets v. Clippers -4.5 | Top | 122-117 | Loss | -105 | 6 h 8 m | Show |
ASA play on: LA Clippers -4.5 over Houston Rockets, 9:35PM ET – We are on the Clippers here minus the points in this Western Conference showdown. Clearly these are two of the best offensive teams in the NBA ranking 3rd (Houston) in offensive efficiency at 1.114 points per possession while the Clippers are 7th at 1.114PPP. The Rockets get their points by shooting over 45 3-pointers per game (1st) while the balanced Clippers get 49PPG in the paint (7th). Defensively is where these two teams are drastically different with the Clippers holding the 7th best defensive efficiency rating allowing just 1.043PPP compared to the Rockets 16th ranked DEFF allowing 1.092PPP. Los Angeles holds opponents to 34.2% shooting from beyond the arc which is 11th best in the NBA. Houston is 22nd in the NBA at points allowed in the paint per game so you can see the Clippers have several key advantages. This will be the third meeting of the season as the home team has won both thus far. Houston has played the much easier schedule, yet the Clippers have the better overall statistics. The Clippers have covered 4 in a row at home as a chalk, 5-0 after tonight. |

12-19-19 | Coastal Carolina -4.5 v. Troy State | Top | 59-77 | Loss | -105 | 4 h 39 m | Show |
ASAwins 10* PLAY ON Coastal Carolina -4.5 over Troy, Thursday at 7 PM ET We head to the Sun Belt conference for our next college basketball winner and will play on the visiting Chanticleer’s of Coastal Carolina. We got to the metrics for support on this wager as our math model has them projected to win by 12-points. Troy is ranked 316th out of 353 schools by our standards and they’ve played one of the softest schedules in all of college basketball (332nd). Despite playing a tougher schedule Coastal Carolina is better in offensive efficiency AND defensive efficiency ratings and laying a marginal number here. C of C will take advantage on the offensive end of the floor with a team that shoots 42.15% from beyond the arc which ranks them 6th in D1 hoops. Troy does not defend the 3-point line well at all allowing opponents to hit 36.82% which ranks them 289th. The porous Trojans defense gives up 70PPG which is 207th in the nation while Coastal averages 84.2PPG which is 8th best. Those numbers are significant as Troy is 0-5 SU this season when allowing at least 72 points in a game this season. You can bet C of C is getting to 72+. This game will have more meaning than usual for the Chanticleer’s as their last game of the season a year ago was a loss to Troy by 7-points on their home court. The Trojans haven’t bounced back off a loss this year with an 0-4 ATS run in that situation while C of C on 4-0 spread run on the road against a team with a winning home record. Coastal Carolina by 12-points. |

12-18-19 | East Tennessee State +9.5 v. LSU | Top | 74-63 | Win | 100 | 3 h 50 m | Show |
ASAwins 10* PLAY ON ETSU +9.5 over LSU, Wednesday at 7:00 PM ET This is a very dangerous game for this young LSU team (327th nationally in experience) that returns only 2 of their top 6 players from last season. The Tigers are coming off 3 blowout wins at home vs poor competition so they may come in a bit overconfident so to speak. They haven’t played a game in 11 days which can ruin a team’s rhythm. There is also a strong possibility this LSU team is peaking ahead to a huge game @ USC this Saturday, their first true road game of the season. That would be a mistake. ETSU is a very good team that starts all upperclassmen. The Buccaneers return all 5 starters from a team that went 24-10 last year. Head coach Steve Forbes is one of the best in the business although it goes unrecognized by most. In his 4 years at the helm for ETSU Forbes has never won fewer than 24 games and his career record here is 109-41. They are 9-2 on the year and gave Kansas all they could handle in Lawrence this year losing by 12 in what was a 6-point game with under 5:00 remaining. They are a solid shooting team (47% overall and 37% from deep) that knows how to get it done on the road winning 20 of their last 29 true road games. LSU has played a very easy schedule to date facing only 3 top 100 teams. They are 1-2 in those games with a 13-point win over Delaware and losses to Utah State and VCU. Now they face their 4th top 100 team and we think ETSU will give them all they can handle. This game should be tight and we take the points. |

12-16-19 | Eastern Illinois v. Western Illinois +2 | Top | 85-47 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 1 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Western Illinois +2 over Eastern Illinois, Monday at 8 PM ET This line opened with EIU favored by 2 points and with a massive 86% of the tickets coming in on that side, the line dropped to -1.5 at many spots. That says that despite only 14% of the tickets in on WIU, heavy money came in on that side to move the number. We agree with the move. Western Illinois is just 2-6 yet they’ve been competitive in all but one game and that was @ Indiana to open the season. The remainder of their losses were all decided by 7 points or less. The Leathernecks are playing their best basketball right now. They are 2-2 over their last 4 games with one loss coming by a single point and the other by 4 points @ Evansville who is 8-3 and won @ Kentucky this year. Also 3 of those 4 games were on the road. They haven’t played a home game since November 23rd and they’ve had 10+ days to get ready for this big home revenge game. They lost 2 games to EIU last year and both went to the wire losing by 2 in OT and by 7. Four of the five starters for Western in that game are back and they’ve been waiting for this one. While they’ve been resting and preparing for this game, Eastern Illinois is off 2 huge wins at home vs UWGB last week and vs UW Milwaukee on Saturday. While we like this EIU team quite a bit this year, this is a tough spot in a quick turnaround situation. Despite their record, Western Illinois is very solid fundamentally as they rank 5th nationally in turnover percentage, 11th in 3 point shooting percentage, and #1 in FT percentage hitting nearly 89% as a team. We like WIU to win this one at home so we’ll take the points here. |

12-15-19 | Vikings v. Chargers +1.5 | Top | 39-10 | Loss | -110 | 28 h 8 m | Show |
ASAwins 10* PLAY ON LA Chargers +1.5 over Minnesota, Sunday at 4 PM ET This line opened Vikings -3 and the vast majority of bets have come in on Minnesota this week (currently 77%) yet the line dropped off the key number of 3 down to -2.5. That tells us that despite the heavy tickets on the Vikes, the heavy money has come in on the Chargers and we agree LA is the play here. Let’s not forget this Charger team is much better than their 5-8 record and they were in the AFC Championship game last year with many of the same players on the team this year. They are +71 YPG on the year and +0.8 YPP. Their point differential is also +38 on the year which makes them one of only 2 teams with a losing record that is plus in the point differential (Indy is +1). They have outgained each of their last 5 opponents and all of their 8 losses have come by 7 or less. They are off a confidence boosting 45-10 win @ Jacksonville last year. Their last 2 home games they whipped Green Bay 26-11 outgaining the Packers by 258 yards and a 7 point loss vs KC in a game they outgained the Chiefs by 130 yards. Minnesota is coming off a division win over the Lions and they have a gigantic game vs the Packers on deck. It is their 2nd trip to the west coast in the last 3 weeks (lost by 7 @ Seattle two weeks ago). Minnesota has been great at home (6-0 record) but they are just 3-4 on the road with their wins coming against the Giants, Lions, and Cowboys, all losing teams. While the Chargers are also a losing team, we feel they are the top below .500 team out there and this is a dangerous spot for Minnesota. We think LA wins this game outright. |

12-14-19 | Heat v. Mavs -8 | Top | 122-118 | Loss | -103 | 9 h 52 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON: Dallas Mavericks -8 vs. Miami Heat, 8:30PM ET The Hear will have a hard time getting back up for this game after their marquee game against the Lakers last night at home. Miami hasn’t won a game this season when playing without rest and have lost those games by an average of 17PPG. The Heat are basically an ‘average’ team on the road with a 7-6 SU record and an average differential of -2.6PPG (16th in the NBA). Dallas is rested and lost their most recent home game so expect a focused effort here. The Mavs have the second-best average home point differential in the league at +9.1PPG and are the most efficient offense in the league at home. The Mavericks have covered 9 of their last ten as a favorite while Miami comes into this game 0-5 ATS their last five when playing without rest. Lay the points. |

12-14-19 | Oregon v. Michigan -3.5 | Top | 71-70 | Loss | -104 | 2 h 24 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Michigan -3.5 over Oregon, Saturday at 12PM ET Great spot for the Wolverines here. They are coming off a loss @ Illinois on Wednesday and they are now back at home where they are 5-0 winning by an average margin of 88 to 69. They’ve played an extremely tough schedule (10th most difficult in the nation so far) and they’ve already beaten 5 top 60 teams including Gonzaga, North Carolina, Iowa, Iowa State, and Creighton. Their only losses on the season were @ Illinois and @ Louisville. They play host to the Ducks here in what will be Oregon’s first true road game of the season. They’ve played a few neutral site games including losses to North Carolina & Gonzaga in the Bahamas, the same 2 teams Michigan beat in that tourney. The Wolverines are shooting 52% at home this year including 41% from beyond the arc. That gives Michigan is huge advantage here as they are obviously comfortable playing and shooting at home facing a team that has yet to venture onto an opponent’s home court. The Ducks have been a solid shooting team but in their 3 neutral site games they shot just 40% from the field and lost 2 of those games as we mentioned above. Defensively Michigan should have the edge as well ranking 16th nationally in defensive efficiency (vs a very tough schedule) compared to Oregon’s 52nd in that same category. It’s tough to win on the road period, much less vs a top notch opponent that will be extra motivated coming of a loss. Oregon has won 20+ games in each of the last 2 seasons yet they are just 9-14 SU on the road. We like Michigan in this spot. |

12-11-19 | Winthrop +12 v. TCU | Top | 60-70 | Win | 100 | 6 h 17 m | Show |
ASAwins 10* PLAY ON Winthrop +12 over TCU, Wednesday at 8:00 PM ET Winthrop comes in with a 4-5 record but they have played one of the tougher schedules in the nation (45th ranked SOS) and they’ve been very competitive. 4 of their 5 losses have come by 3 points or less and their other loss was by 13 points @ Duke. In that game the Blue Devils were +10 made FT’s and shot 58% from beyond the arc to just 28% for Winthrop and it was STILL a competitive game. Duke led by 7 at half and it was still a 7 point game with just over 3:00 minutes remaining. In their 4 games vs top 130 teams, the Eagles beat St Mary’s on the road, lost @ Fresno by 3, lost at East Tennessee State by 3 and lost @ Duke by 13. They are a dangerous team because they make 3’s at 9.3 per game (45th nationally) and tonight they face a TCU defense that ranks 332nd in 3-point percentage allowed at 39.2%. The Frogs also allow their opponents to score 35% of their points from beyond the arc which is the 65th most in the nation. The Frogs have played only 2 top 100 teams and lost to both (Clemson on a neutral site and USC at home). Their most recent game vs USC on Friday the Frogs rallied from an 18 point second half deficit only to still lose by 2. A lot of physical and mental energy was used in that come back and we expect them to be flat vs an opponent they may not get the motor going. That would be a mistake. Beyond their 2 losses, TCU has played only 2 other teams ranked between 100 & 200 beating UC Irvine at home by 1 & Illinois State at home by 12 which was their largest lead of the game (TCU led by just 6 with less than 4:00 remaining). Winthrop is one of the better mid major programs (6 straight winning seasons) and they will be ready here as they have been all season vs big conference opponents. They are rested as they’ve played only 1 game since December 1st and if TCU comes in flat at all, they could be in trouble. Take the 12 points as we expect a tight game here. |

12-10-19 | Knicks +9 v. Blazers | Top | 87-115 | Loss | -104 | 8 h 37 m | Show |
ASA PLAY ON: NY Knicks +9 over Portland Trailblazers, 10PM ET – The Knicks have one of the worst records in the NBA but they’ve clearly underachieved based on the marginal talent on the roster. New York has a solid core of vets with Randle, Gibson, Morris and younger talent in Barrett, Ntilikina Portis and Payton. The players did not buy in with former head coach Fitzdale’s system and should relate to new coach Mike Miller. New York played well in a 1-point loss to Indiana in Miller’s first game and should continue to get better. Considering the change, we predict for the Knicks going forward this line is not what it should be. New York was just a +9.5-point underdog in Toronto who is better than this Portland team. Speaking of underachieving, let’s talk about the 9-15 SU Blazers. Last season the Blazers won 53 games in the regular season with the 7th best average scoring differential in the NBA at +4.2PPG. Portland had the 3rd best average home differential last year at +8.4PPG which won’t cover tonight’s spread. Portland is just 4-6 SU at home this season with a negative average differential of -1.3PPG. The Blazers have been 9 or more-point home chalks twice this season and they barely covered in overtime against the Hawks and lost outright to the Warriors. Considering the defense been has been horrible their last five games it’s an easy call to take the points and the Knicks here. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Hofstra -4 over Stony Brook, Tuesday at 7 PM ET Hofstra was 27-8 last year and while they lost leading scorer Justin Wright-Foreman they do return a number of key players from last season including 3 starters and their top reserve. They have started slower than they expected with a 6-4 record, however they have played only 3 home games on the season. In fact, their last home game was nearly a month ago on November 15th. They have won 20 of their last 22 home games and they are coming off an embarrassing 73-45 loss @ St Bonnies on Saturday so we expect a big effort here. Stony Brook comes in with a 7-3 record but 6 of their wins have come against teams ranked 235th or lower. Their lone decent win came against North Dakota State (ranked 157th) winning by 7 on a neutral court. The Seawolves have also been very shaky on the road this year where they are 2-2 with their wins coming vs Wagner (ranked 330th) by 3 points in OT and vs Texas A&M Corpus Christie (ranked 305th) by 5 points. They are shooting just 39% from the field in those 4 road games. Hofstra is shooting over 47% in their 3 home games while averaging 85 PPG. They have 9 days off after this so absolutely no look ahead, plus they’ve been away from home for a month as we mentioned. Stony Brook, on the other hand, is coming off 2 easy wins at home vs weaker competition and they have a huge game on deck with Providence this weekend. Getting a very solid Hofstra team at home in this spot with a manageable number is very nice value. |

12-09-19 | Giants +10.5 v. Eagles | Top | 17-23 | Win | 100 | 7 h 44 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON NY Giants +105 over Philadelphia, Monday at 8:15 PM ET We anticipate the Giants rallying around QB Eli Manning who steps in for his first start since September 15th. He had fairly solid numbers in those 2 starts with 556 yards passing, 63% completion rate (vs Cowboys and Bills). The organization, however, was ready to move on and see what Daniel Jones could do. Jones looked decent early but he has now lost 8 in a row (2-6 ATS) as defenses have figured him out. He’s also been a turnover machine with 21 giveaways in his 11 games. Manning will be an upgrade tonight as he is rested and ready to go. The Eagles are way too inconsistent to be laying double digits in this game. They have lost 3 in a row to drop to 5-7, including a 37-31 setback @ Miami last week. The Eagles have been outgained in 6 of their last 9 games and they’ve been held to 22 points or less in 5 of their last 7 games. Those numbers make it tough to see them as nearly a 10 point favorite here. This is also a division game which we feel favors the big dog here. Looking at Philly’s last 18 wins over NY, only 6 have come by more than 10 points. Take the points here. |

12-08-19 | Seahawks v. Rams +1 | Top | 12-28 | Win | 100 | 33 h 15 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON LA Rams +1 over Seattle, Sunday at 8:20 PM ET This line opened with the Seahawks favored by -2.5 and has dropped despite nearly 70% of the tickets coming in on Seattle. We agree with the move and like the Rams here. Seattle is on a short week coming off a 37-30 home win over Minnesota. Seattle is now 9-1 SU this year in one score games so they are far from a dominant team despite their 10-2 record. In fact, if you line these two teams up on a point differential and YPG differential basis, they are almost identical despite the 3 game difference in the standings. The Rams are +33 points on the season and +43 YPG on the year while the Seahawks are +36 PPG and +21 YPG on the season. The Rams have a HUGE edge defensively allowing just 4.9 YPP (4th in the NFL) to Seattle’s 5.8 YPP allowed (24th in the NFL). Seattle has a slight edge offensively (5.9 YPP to 5.8 YPP) but the Rams seemed to get their momentum back offensively last week putting up a season high 550 yards @ Arizona. These two met earlier this year and the Rams were +2 in that game @ Seattle and now the spread is in the same neighborhood at home. The gives us value on LA here. IN that first meeting the Rams outgained Seattle putting up 477 yards but missed a FG as time expired in the 30-29 loss. LA has outgained 10 of their 12 opponents and they are better than their record. They are also 11-4 SU at home in division games since Sean McVay took over as head coach. This is a much bigger game for the Rams who are fighting for their playoff lives currently 1 game out of the final wildcard spot. We like the Rams to win this game. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Oakland +3 over Tennessee, Sunday at 4:25 PM ET This line just a few weeks ago would have had Oakland favored and now, because of recent results, they are getting a full FG at home. The Raiders won 3 consecutive home games in beginning in early November before taking the road and losing @ NY Jets & @ KC the last 2 weeks. Last week’s 40-9 loss was extremely misleading as Oakland actually outgained the Chiefs by 73 yards (5.8 YPP to 4.4 YPP) and held the potent KC offense to less than 300 yards of total offense. Three first half turnovers led to 14 KC points and put Oakland in a quick 21-0 hole which they couldn’t climb out of. They catch an overvalued Tennessee team coming off a huge division win @ Indy last Sunday. The Titans were outgained by the Colts and the game swung on a blocked FG returned for a TD with the game tied at 17-17. Tennessee has won 5 of their last 6 but they’ve been outgained in half of those games (3). Because of the Titan’s run, we are getting solid value here. Just a few weeks ago Tennessee was +3.5 @ Carolina who is rated almost dead even with Oakland in our power ratings and now the Titans are laying a full FG. Both teams are fighting for the playoffs and only one game separates them with Oakland at 6-6 and Tennessee at 7-5. The fact is Oakland has been very good at home this year with a 5-1 record and their only loss here coming vs Kansas City. They catch the Titans in a perfect sandwich spot off a huge division road win, on the road for the 2nd straight week and a game with division leader Houston on deck. We like the Raiders to win this one outright so we’ll take the points. |

12-07-19 | Indiana v. Wisconsin | Top | 64-84 | Win | 100 | 19 h 58 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Wisconsin (pick-em) over Indiana, Saturday at 4:30 PM ET Huge value with Wisconsin here in our opinion. It this game was played 2 weeks ago, Wisconsin is favored by 3 to 4 points. Now after a few losses, we’re getting them at an even game at home. This becomes a huge home game for the Badgers who have lost 3 in a row to Richmond, New Mexico, and NC State, all top 100 teams away from home (or neutral). They shot absolutely horribly in those 3 losses (2 in NY and 1 @ NC State) and now that they are back in the Kohl Center we expect a much better shooting performance. They made less than 20% of their 3 pointers combined in those 3 losses but they are hitting 37% behind the arc and averaging 75 PPG at home this year. That includes a 16 point win over Marquette, the highest rated team they’ve faced this season. Indiana is undefeated on the year but they have yet to play a road game, not even a neutral site game. They have played only 2 top 100 teams on the season and their current strength of schedule ranks 338th out of 351 teams. The Hoosiers are solid but they are a young team (2 freshmen starters) that we expect to struggle in their first road game. The Badgers have DOMINATED this series winning 19 of the last 22 meetings with IU’s only wins coming by 1, 2, and 2 points. Wisconsin will be in desperation mode at home after 3 straight losses and all they have to do is win this game to cover. Take the Badgers. |

12-04-19 | Ohio State v. North Carolina -3 | Top | 74-49 | Loss | -106 | 5 h 51 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON North Carolina -3 over Ohio State, Wednesday at 9:30 PM ET Ohio State comes in undefeated however they have yet to leave Columbus. All 7 of their games this year have been in the friendly confines of Value City Arena. They are a young team (6 underclassmen averaging 10+ minutes per game) that may experience some growing pains on the road at times and we expect that in their first road game tonight @ the historic Dean Dome. UNC has one loss but they’ve played the much tougher schedule, especially as of late. The Heels are coming off games vs Alabama, Michigan, and Oregon last week all on a neutral site. OSU has not played a top 100 team since November 13th with their last 4 games coming against Stetson, IPFW, Kent, and Morgan State. Now they take a HUGE step up in competition and on the road. We’re not sure they’re quite ready for that. The Heels also got a boost last week when senior Brandon Robinson returned after missing their first 4 games due to an injury. Robinson showed no signs of a slow start with 34 points in his 3 games while averaging nearly 30 minutes per game. Super Frosh Cole Anthony (20 PPG) has a banged up ankle for UNC but he has been able to rest it since last Friday and he practiced on Tuesday and appears ready to go. OSU has struggled on the defensive glass despite their easy slate and UNC is one of the best offensive rebounding teams in the nation so we expect a big advantage on the boards. It’s obviously very tough to walk into the Dean Dome and beat the Tar Heels. They are 58-6 SU their last 64 home games AND 56 of those 58 wins have come by at least 4 points which would cover tonight’s number. We like North Carolina to hand OSU their first loss of the season. |

12-04-19 | Pacers v. Thunder +1 | Top | 107-100 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 2 m | Show |
ASA 10* play on: Oklahoma City Thunder +1 over Indian Pacers, 8PM ET – At first glance the Indiana Pacers streak of 6-1 their last seven games is impressive but lets take a closer look. In that seven game stretch the Pacers have beaten Memphis twice, Atlanta, Orlando and Brooklyn, none of which have a winning record. You can argue that Oklahoma City is in that same scenario with a losing record, but they’ve played a top ten strength of schedule and Indiana has played one of the easiest. The Thunder have won back to back games against the Pelicans but are just 4-6 SU their last ten games but take peek at who the loses have come against. Portland the Lakers twice, Clippers, this Pacers team and the Bucks. OKC has had a dominating home record in recent years and has a loyal following at home. The Thunder are 92-48 SU at home since 2016 with an average margin of victory of +5.1PPG. The Thunder were recently +1.5 points at Indiana so the line adjustment isn’t what it should be with them the home team. Playing with same season revenge we like the Thunder here by double-digits. |

ASA play on: #550 Denver Nuggets -2 vs. LA Lakers, 9PM ET We will play on the Denver Nuggets here minus the points at home over the Lakers. Los Angeles is certainly the media darling and has garnered a lot of attention with their 17-3 start. But the reality is the NBA set them up with one of the easiest schedules possible to start the season to ensure TV ratings early on and promote them as the team of destiny this season. On a side note, it hasn’t worked as NBA ratings are down this season but that will change as the season heats up. Back to basketball, the Lakers roster is an impressive one, but they’ve played the softest schedule to date and of their 20 games, ONLY 6 have been against teams with winning records and they are 3-3 in those games. The Lakers lofty offensive (8th) and defensive (4th) efficiency numbers are skewed as a result of the schedule. Denver on the other hand has faced much stiffer competition and is 1st in the NBA in DEFF and 20th in OEFF. The Nuggets at home have already beaten Boston, Houston, Philadelphia and Miami who are some of the league’s better teams. Even with that schedule the Nuggets still have an average margin of victory at home of +6.4PPG. Again, the Lakers are 1-1 on the road against winning teams this year yet only have an average margin of victory of +4.3PPG playing their weak schedule. The oddsmakers are begging us to bet the public Lakers here and we won’t bite. Denver has covered 5 straight against the Lakers on this court. Bet the Nuggets. |

12-03-19 | Butler v. Ole Miss -1 | Top | 67-58 | Loss | -105 | 4 h 17 m | Show |
ASA's 10* PLAY ON Ole Miss -1 over Butler, Tuesday at 7 PM ET These two met last year @ Butler and Ole Miss led by 5 with around 5:00 minutes remaining and lost by 7. That should motivate them for this rematch. Not only that, the Rebels, who are 5-2 on the season, are coming off an embarrassing effort in Kansas City facing Oklahoma State. The Rebs were favored by 2 in that game and lost 78-37. Yes you read that correctly. It was simply a horrible performance as Ole Miss made 29% of their shots overall and made ONE 3-point shot in 20 attempts! After the game head coach Kermit Davis called it “embarrassing” and we expect them to come out with some fire tonight at home. They were playing well entering that game beating a very solid Penn State two days prior to this debacle and nearly topped #15 Memphis on the road a few days before that losing by 1- point. Butler is 7-0 on the season and ranked 24th yet they are an underdog here against t team that just lost by 39 points? That’s why the vast majority bets are coming in on Butler yet this line is not moving. Ole Miss is still a favorite. This is the Bulldogs first true road game and they have a huge revenge game on deck as they host Florida on Saturday, a team that beat them 77-43 last season. Butler is solid but this situation sets up very nicely for an Ole Miss team that brings a number of key performers back from last year’s NCAA tourney team. All they have to do is win at home and we feel they will give Butler their first loss of the season. Take Ole Miss. |

12-02-19 | North Carolina Central +16 v. Wofford | Top | 59-77 | Loss | -111 | 3 h 41 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON NC Central +16 over Wofford, Monday at 7 PM ET NCCU, out of the MEAC, is a very solid program that has been to the NCAA tournament 3 straight seasons. They have gotten off to a slow start (2-5 record) but were picked by most to win the MEAC again so we feel they are undervalued right now. They have a very solid backcourt with Perkins & Miller, both returning starters from last year, and the additions of Boston College transfer Ty Graves & Wichita State transfer CJ Keyser. They shoot the 3 very well (115th nationally) and they are facing a Wofford team that defends the arc very poorly (315th nationally). Wofford is simply a poor defensive team in general allowing their opponents to shoot almost 49% on the year. The Terriers were a fantastic story last year going undefeated in the Southern Conference and making it to the Big Dance. However, they lost many of their key players off that team including sharp shooter Fletcher Magee and big man Cameron Jackson who graduated along with starter Keve Aluma who transferred to Va Tech. Speaking of Va Tech, the Terriers also lost their coach Mike Young who took over the Hokies program. With so many changes from last year, they’ve struggle to find their way this year having already lost 4 games which is almost as many as they lost all of last year (5). This team is overvalued right now due to last year’s success. We like NC Central to score enough to keep this within this number which is too high in our opinion. |

11-29-19 | Iowa State v. Seton Hall -2 | Top | 76-84 | Win | 100 | 6 h 23 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Seton Hall -2 over Iowa State, Friday at 7:00 PM ET This line is light according to our power ratings. We have Seton Hall favored by -4.5 so we’re getting a full possession of value here. The Pirates are 5-2 on the year but their 2 losses have been down to the wire affairs vs Michigan State & Oregon (both top 15 teams according to Ken Pom). The Pirates could easily be 7-0 as they led Michigan State by 5 with under 2:00 minutes remaining (lost by 3) and led Oregon by 19 (lost by 2). Both teams are playing their 3rd game in 3 days here in the Bahamas and with that depth is very important and Seton Hall is absolutely the deeper team (26th nationally in bench minutes while ISU is 222nd in that category). In their 2 games vs Oregon & Southern Miss, the Pirates were able to distribute double digit minutes to 10 players in game 1 and 9 players in game 2. Iowa State (4-2 with losses to Oregon State & Michigan) really goes only 7 deep so we could be looking at a tired team here in the 2nd half. This is a favorable match up for the Hall. They rank higher in offensive efficiency, higher in defensive efficiency and they are the better rebounding team. They also shoot the 3 very well (31st nationally at nearly 40%) and ISU’s defensive weakness is defending the arc (294th nationally). The Pirates have found their groove from deep in this tourney hitting nearly 50% (24 of 51) in their 2 games and they should do the same today vs the Cyclones. They also have the best player on the court in Myles Powell who is averaging 23 PPG and making over 40% of his 3 point attempts and 83% of his FT’s. As we mentioned this line is too short in our opinion and we like Seton Hall to cover this one. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Dallas -6.5 over Buffalo, Thursday at 3:30 PM ET Dallas is much better than their 6-5 record in our opinion. They lead the league in yards per play differential at +1.4 and their offense is actually #1 in the NFL in total yards per game (433) and YPP (6.6). Those are better numbers than the red hot Baltimore offense! The only team that outgained Dallas this year was New Orleans and that was by just 9 yards. Despite their 6-5 record, Dallas has the 2nd best point differential in the NFC at +85 trailing only San Francisco. Last Sunday the Cowboys took New England to the wire on the road before losing 13-9. They outgained the Pats by 40 yards despite running fewer offensive plays. Buffalo is not as good as their 8-3 record would indicate. Their offense is pedestrian averaging just 18 PPG if you subtract their 2 games vs Miami. Last week they topped Denver 20-3 but still have beaten only 1 team this year that currently has a record above .500 (Tennessee). The Bills strength of schedule ranks dead last in the NFL at 32nd. The teams they’ve beaten so far this year have a current winning percentage of .239 or just less than 24%. The Cowboys running game which averages 4.6 YPC (8th in the NFL) matches up very well with Buffalo’s defensive weakness and that is allowing 4.4 YPC (21st in the NFL). That should open up the Dallas passing game and we expect them to play very well on offense. We don’t see Buffalo’s offense keeping up in this game. Lay the points with Dallas. |

11-25-19 | Thunder -6 v. Warriors | Top | 100-97 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 52 m | Show |
ASA PLAY ON: Oklahoma City Thunder -6 over Golden State Warriors, 10:30PM ET – The Thunder already own a pair of wins over the Warriors this season and there’s no reason they can’t beat them again by more than this spread. The Thunder have some solid efficiency numbers their last six games when you factor in the teams they’ve faced. OKC played the Lakers twice, the Clippers, Philadelphia, Indiana and Milwaukee. The Thunder lost to the Bucks by 2-points, beat Philly, lost to both L.A. teams by a combined 10-points. OKC has a negative point differential of minus -0.7PPG this season but they’ve faced the third toughest schedule. The roster is solid with veterans Chris Paul, Gallinari and Adams along with Gilgeous-Alexander who is playing great. Dennis Schroder and Terrance Ferguson round out the top six. The same can’t be said for Golden State who look like the walking wounded. The Warriors dressed just 8-players the other night in Utah due to injuries. GST has the worst overall average point differential in the NBA at minus -10.4PPG and the worst home differential at minus -9.0PPG. The line on this contest is slightly inflated but we feel Vegas is trying to keep us off Oklahoma City here. Lay the points. |

11-25-19 | Stanford v. Oklahoma -4 | Top | 73-54 | Loss | -118 | 7 h 2 m | Show |
ASA 10* CBB PLAY ON Oklahoma -4 over Stanford, Monday at 9:30 PM ET on ESPN2 Both these teams come in undefeated but all records are not created equal. OU has beaten 2 top 75 teams (Minnesota & Oregon State) both by 8 or more points and both on neutral courts. The Sooners are experienced returning 3 starters from a team that won 20 games and gave Virginia a run in the round of 32 in the NCAA tourney last year before falling to the eventual National Champion. Stanford is the opposite as far as experience. They are young starting 2 freshman including point guard Tyrell Terry. The Cardinal have yet to leave their home arena this season and we’ll see how this young team adjusts to a different environment. We know Oklahoma can adjust as we mentioned with 2 solid win not on their home court. On top of that, Stanford has not yet played a team ranked higher than 134th and 5 of their 6 games have come against teams rated 200th or lower. This will be by far the best defense Stanford has faced with Oklahoma ranking 29th nationally in defensive efficiency. Prior to this the Cardinal have not faced a team ranked inside the top 125 in defensive efficiency. The Sooners are a very well coached team under Lon Kruger and it shows in their key stats where they are very good defensively, they turn the ball over very little (5th best turnover ratio in the country), they get to the FT line and make them when the do get there (81% as a team), and they don’t foul very much with their opponents getting only 8.7% of their points from the line which is the lowest mark in the NCAA. Kruger has his teams playing well early in the season with a 27-2 SU record in November & December since the start of the 2017 season. We’ll lay this small number with Oklahoma on Monday night on a neutral court in Kansas City, a venue they are very familiar with as the Big 12 tourney is played here. |

11-24-19 | Akron +18.5 v. Louisville | Top | 76-82 | Win | 100 | 5 h 23 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Akron +18.5 over Louisville, Sunday at 6 PM ET This is a unique situation early in the season as these two teams have already played 3 common opponents. With that, we have a pretty solid comparison. Each has played USC Upstate, Youngstown State, and NC Central. Both are 3-0 vs those common opponents and the results have been fairly similar. Akron has beaten those teams by an average of 21 points while Louisville has beaten them by an average of 26 points. Akron is a veteran team that can shoot the ball well from deep. That plays into Louisville’s weakest part of their defense as they rank 145th in 3-point defense. Teams that have good guard play and can hit from deep are always a threat as a big underdog. Akron also plays very good defense which is another big factor. They rank 4th nationally in eFG% defense and that’s no fluke as they ranked 14th in that category last season. Akron’s only loss this year was a 10-point setback @ a very solid West Virginia team in a game that the Zips shot only 38%. They impressed us on the boards in that game getting out rebounded by just 1 against a WVU team that is consistently among the top rebounding teams in the nation. Akron proved last year they can hang with top notch opponents as they took Clemson to the wire (lost by 3) as well as a 29-5 Nevada team (lost by 6). This number is too high as we expect the Zips to be competitive here. |

11-24-19 | Broncos +4 v. Bills | Top | 3-20 | Loss | -107 | 20 h 51 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Denver +4 over Buffalo, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET As we’ve said many times this season, Denver is much better than their 3-7 record. Last week we thought they were in a terrible spot @ Minnesota, who tends to destroy teams at home, with a QB that had never started a road game. We took the Vikings thinking a 2 TD win for the host was probable. Denver proved us wrong losing just 27-23 and they actually led Minnesota 20-0 in the first half. QB Allen played solid (240 yards passing) and the defense continued to play very well holding a potent Minnesota attack to just 320 yards. Denver actually outgained Minnesota by 73 yards and played very well in one of the tougher environments in the NFL. Now they head to Buffalo in a game they can absolutely win. The Bills are a bit of a farce at 7-3 as only one of their wins came against a team with any type of a pulse (14-7 win vs Tennessee). Their other wins have come against Miami (twice), Washington, NY Giants, NY Jets, and Cincinnati. Those 4 teams have combined for a 6-34 record and that makes this Bills record a bit misleading. While Denver only has 3 wins, as we discussed they are underrated and much better than any of those 4 teams mentioned. Despite their record the Broncos are +11 YPG and +0.2 YPP on the season. Those are the stats of a .500 type team. Buffalo struggles to score. If you take out their two games vs Miami they are only averaging 17 PPG. Now they face one of the better defenses in the NFL (Denver 9th in defensive efficiency) and we expect the Buffalo offense to struggle. The Broncos have played close games all season long with 7 of their 10 games being single score contests (8 points or less). Four of their seven losses have come by 4 points or less. We look for a low scoring game and we give Denver a great shot at winning. Take the points. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON: Denver Nuggets -5 over Boston Celtics, 9PM ET – In our opinion Brad Stevens is one of the best coaches in the NBA so it’s hard to believe his record off a SU loss is just 20-18 SU since the start of last season. Boston has gotten off to a fantastic 11-3 start this season but depth is a concern, especially in this situation with it being their 5th straight road game and the higher altitude of Denver. The Celtics have struggled with their shooting of late and we feel it catches up to them here. Boston has hit less than 42% from the field in four straight games. The Nuggets defensive efficiency rating is 4th best in the NBA and they are holding foes to under 43% shooting in their last five games. Denver got off to a slow start but are hitting their stride with wins in 7 of their last eight games which includes home wins over Miami, Philly and Houston who are all comparable to the Celtics. Denver is 44-12 SU at home since the start of last season with an average margin of victory of +9.2PPG. Lay the points. |

ASA play on: Houston Texans -3.5 over Indianapolis Colts, 8:20PM ET – This is a huge game for both teams as it may decide the AFC South. From a situational standpoint we must take the Texans, at home, on a short week and playing with same season revenge as they lost in Indy a few weeks ago. Not too mention, the Texans are off a HORRIBLE showing against the Ravens last week. But this game will be different as they don’t face a mobile QB like Lamar Jackson who threw for 222 yards, 4 TD’s and rank for another 86. The Colts are off a big win against Jacksonville at home with Jacoby Brissett throwing for just 148 total yards, 1 passing TD and 1 INT. These two teams have played nearly identical schedules yet the Colts net yards per play differential is minus -0.3 while the Texans is even. Houston relies heavily on QB Watson who has 8 TD’s and zero INT’s in his last two home games with 705 passing yards. We like the home team here and will lay the points. |

ASA 10* play on: Toronto Raptors -3 over Orlando Magic, 7:30PM ET – These two teams have met on this floor already this season with the Raptors coming out on top by 9-points as a 5-point favorite. That was the 5th straight time the Raptors have beaten the Magic and there is no reason to think that streak ends tonight. Orlando hasn’t won a road game this season and have a negative differential of minus -5.5PPG when away from home. Historically the Raptors have had some of the best numbers at home and this year their average point differential of +13.8PPG is second in the league. Much has been made of the Magic’s improved defensive efficiency numbers that rank them 9th in the NBA but Toronto has a better points per possession defense allowing just 1.030PPP which ranks them 5th. Orlando isn’t nearly as good as the Raptors on the other end of the court as Toronto ranks 10th in offensive efficiency, Orlando 24th. Yes, the Raptors don’t have Kyle Lowry in the lineup but VanVleet and Powell will pick up the slack in the backcourt. Lay the points with Toronto tonight. |

11-18-19 | Appalachian State v. NC-Greensboro -9 | Top | 41-55 | Win | 100 | 8 h 31 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON UNC Greensboro -9 over Appalachian State, Monday at 7 PM ET UNCG is one of the favorites this year in the Southern Conference and we catch them here off a loss to Montana State as a 15 point favorite. Greensboro took 29 more shots in the game but simply shot poorly hitting only 36% while Montana State hit 52%. It was just one of those games where the ball was not going in the basket for UNCG. It was also a poor defensive effort from a team that has been very good on that end of the court ranking 26th nationally in defensive efficiency 2 years ago and 74th last season. Many of the key components are back from a team that finished 29-7 last year and this program has won 25+ game three straight seasons. They finished 14-1 at home last year with their only loss coming at the hands of Wofford who was 30-5 a year ago. Now off a rare home loss we expect them to have a huge bounce back and play very well in this game. In a round robin type format, UNCG is hosting App State, Tennessee Tech, and Montana State. They played Tennessee Tech on Friday (won by 34) and Montana State on Saturday (upset 1 point loss). App State played both teams as well here in Greensboro (lost to Montana State & beat Tenn Tech) so they each will be playing their 3rd game in 4 days. Advantage goes to the home team for sure in that situation. Unlike UNCG, App State has not been a successful program with their last winning season coming back in 2011 (16-15 record). They hired a new coach Kerns from Presbyterian and he is trying to turn this program around. While he may just do that, it won’t happen this season. Greensboro plays pressure defense creates turnovers at a high rates ranking in the top 30 in defensive turnover rate each of the last 3 season. It’s early in the season but they are at it again turning their opponents over 28% of the time ranking them 12th nationally. App State ranks 254th so far this season in offensive turnover rate. This isn’t a great match up for the Mountaineers and they will be facing an angry Greensboro team that is used to winning at home. UNCG wins by double digits. |

11-17-19 | Texans +4.5 v. Ravens | Top | 7-41 | Loss | -103 | 16 h 34 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Houston +4.5 over Baltimore, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET Baltimore has become a bit too public since beating New England a few weeks ago and we feel this line is too high. Houston is coming off a bye and they absolutely are good enough to win this game outright and the points at +4.5 are giving us some nice cushion if Baltimore does win. Houston is 3-1 in road games including a win @ KC when the Chiefs had QB Mahomes at 100%. The Texans dominated that game outgained the potent Chiefs by 163 yards. The Houston defense allows just 84 YPG rushing (3rd best in the NFL) which matches up very well with what Baltimore likes to do on offense and that is run the ball. In order to beat this Baltimore team, you need to slow down their running game and force QB Lamar Jackson to try and win through the air. We think Houston can do just that. Baltimore has been very good in the underdog role but they are just 2-4 ATS this year when favored. Let’s not forget that before they beat New England, the Ravens lost at home to Cleveland by 15 points and picked up close wins vs both Cincinnati & Arizona. The Texans are 3-1 ATS as underdogs this year and they’ve won all 3 of those games outright. Even when Houston loses, it tends to be a close game. In fact, since Deshaun Watson took over as the starting QB in 2017, Houston has lost 11 games with him under center and all were by 8 points or less. We think this one goes to the wire and we’ll take the generous points. |

ASA play on: Cleveland Cavaliers +4.5 over Miami Heat, 6PM ET - *Note early tip time* We love the Cavs here who are a team lumped together with some of the worst teams in the league, but are better than expected. Let’s talk line value first. The Cavs are catching a similar number at home as they were against Boston and Dallas recently who are both better than this Miami team as of this writing. Injuries: The Heat have suspended Dion Waiters, Justise Winslow is out and they have health concerns with Dragic, Johnson, and Herro who are all questionable tonight. The Cavaliers have played the 8th toughest schedule when it comes to efficiency ratings and yet they have the 17th average point differential of minus -0.9PPG. Miami is 3-3 SU on the road this season with a differential of minus -2PPG. Cleveland is 2-2 SU at home and their differential is minus -2.2PPG so in both those scenarios (Miami away, Cavs home) the Cavs are within the spread tonight. Let’s not forget the Cav vets are playing hard to showcase their talents for other teams in the league before trade deadline when this team gets blown up. Take the home dog here and the points! |

11-13-19 | Clippers +2.5 v. Rockets | Top | 93-102 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 27 m | Show |
ASA play on: LA Clippers +2.5 over Houston Rockets, 7:30PM ET – Obviously the biggest game on the card tonight is this one and we are betting the Clippers. These two teams are both 7-3 SU on the season and have some similarities when it comes to general statistics but the biggest advantage the Clippers have is defense. Let’s compare both teams: The Clippers are 8th in offensive efficiency ratings, the Rockets are 3rd. Los Angeles is 11th in defensive efficiency, Houston is 20th. To summarize the Rockets, have a slight edge offensively and the Clippers hold the advantage defensively. But the Clippers numbers have come against the 3rd toughest schedule to date while the Rockets stats have come against the SECOND EASIEST! Houston has one quality win on their resume which was at home against the Bucks. The Clippers on the other hand have beaten Toronto, Portland, San Antonio, Utah and the Lakers. After facing the much tougher schedule the Clippers average point differential is +5PPG while the Rockets are +1.9PPG against a weak one. L.A. has covered 5 straight, the Rockets are 0-4 AGTS their last four against a team with a winning record. The better defensive team wins outright. Play on: LA CLIPPERS |

11-10-19 | Vikings +3.5 v. Cowboys | Top | 28-24 | Win | 100 | 10 h 4 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Minnesota +3.5 over Dallas, Sunday at 8:20 PM ET You couldn’t ask for a better situation for a wager on the Vikings as they are off a disappointing loss, while the public Cowboys are off a big TV win on Monday night. That makes this a short week for a Cowboys team that is vastly over-rated by playing the 31st easiest schedule in the NFL. The Cowboys have played five games against teams with a combined 7-36 SU record and are the five worst teams in the NFL. Dallas has an average margin of victory this year of +10.6PPG but if you eliminate the previously teams that differential shrinks to just +1.6PPG. They’ve already lost to a pair of comparable teams to the Vikings in New Orleans (without Brees) and home against the Packers. Despite the disparity in scheduling the Cowboys yards per play differential (1.6YPPL) is barely better than the Vikings (1.0YPPL) and a tougher schedule. The Vikings have an average differential of +8.4PPG and have played a much better schedule than Dallas. Minnesota has a 2-3 SU road record this year, but the losses have come against Green Bay, at Chicago when the Bears were decent and then last week in Kansas City. Vikings head coach Zimmer is 17-3-1 ATS when coming off a loss and playing a non-division opponent and a remarkable 40-16-3 ATS when facing a non-NFC North team. |

11-10-19 | Bills v. Browns -2.5 | Top | 16-19 | Win | 100 | 22 h 15 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Cleveland -2.5 over Buffalo, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET We’re definitely buying low on Cleveland here. Nobody wants to bet the Browns right now after losing @ Denver last week dropping them to 2-6 yet they are favored over the 6-2 Bills here. There is a reason they are favored in this game and we expect a bounce back game for Cleveland. We all know they are a very talented team and now they are backed into a corner with everyone seemingly against them. That’s many times when NFL teams step up and play well. We also don’t mind fading a Buffalo team that we feel is completely overvalued at this point in the season. Their 6 wins have come against teams that have a combined record of 9-41 and none have a .500 record. They have beaten Miami, NY Jets, NY Giants, Washington, Cincinnati, and Tennessee. Last week they beat a terrible Washington team 24-9 but the Bills had just 268 yards of total offense in that game. They have also been at home for 5 of their last 6 games so their schedule thus far has been very much in favor of them. The Buffalo offense is fairly pedestrian ranking 22nd scoring only 19.8 PPG despite playing 4 of the bottom 12 defenses in the NFL this year. Their defense is overrated in our opinion for the same reason as the Bills have faced 6 of the bottom 9 NFL teams ranked in total offense. Their run defense has been exposed a bit over the last 3 weeks allowing 127 yards rushing to the Skins, 218 to the Eagles, and 109 to the Dolphins. Cleveland is one of the better running teams in the NFL (2nd in YPC) and not only will the Browns run Nick Chubb at the Buffalo defense but Kareem Hunt is now eligible as well. We expect the Browns with their backs against the wall hearing from everyone all week how bad they are, to rise up and play very well on Sunday. We spoke earlier about why would a 2-6 Cleveland team be favored over a 6-2 Buffalo team? Here is a very interesting and STRONG stat on that situation. Over the last 25 seasons, this is just the 7th time in week 6 or later a team winning 25% or less of their games (Cleveland) is favored over a team winning 75% or more of their games (Buffalo). The favorite (supposed bad team) that has won 25% or less is 6-0 ATS in those games as a favorite! Again there is a reason Cleveland is favored and we’ll take the Browns on Sunday. |

ASA Play on: Utah Jazz +3 over Milwaukee Bucks, Friday 9PM ET – This is simply a bad number set by the oddsmakers and we’ll gladly take the value with the home team Jazz. Consider this: Utah was just favored by -2.5 points at home over a Philly team that is VERY comparable to Milwaukee and a -7.5 point favorite against the Clippers at home (minus Kawhi). The Jazz won both of those games and are unbeaten at home this season. Last year the Jazz were 29-12 SU at home with the 6th best home point differential at +7.9PPG. Going back further the Jazz are 30-16 their last 46 regular season home games with an average winning margin of +4.8PPG (11th best in the NBA). Milwaukee is clearly one of the best teams in the NBA and have some impressive road numbers including a 27-14 SU record away from home in the regular season last year. The Bucks road differential a season ago was +5.6PPG which was 2nd best in the league but that’s barely better than the spread here. The home team has won and covered 4 in a row in this series and with the vast majority of public money and tickets bet on the Bucks, we’ll go opposite and take the home team Jazz. |

ASA 10* Play On: #552 Denver Nuggets -4.5 over Miami Heat, 9PM ET – We are getting value here with the home team Nuggets who are off to a slow start by the standards set for them this season, while the Heat are over-valued by a hot start. Miami does have a pair of quality wins on their resume against Houston and Milwaukee, but their other three wins have come against Atlanta and Memphis. With a 5-1 SU record and a public team, the Heat will have the Nuggets full attention tonight. Denver is 71-21 SU at home since the start of the 2017 season with an average margin of victory of +7.9PPG. Last season Denver had the second most efficient offense in the NBA at home last year at 1.172PPG and the 5th best defensive efficiency allowing 1.064PPP. Denver was 34-7 at home last year and won by an average of 10.6PPG. The Heat are clearly over-valued tonight considering they were a 7-point dog at a lesser Minnesota and +11.5 points in Milwaukee. This Nuggets team was one of the favorites to win it all this season. Denver lost their last home contest and will send a message tonight. Lay the points. |

11-03-19 | Jazz v. Clippers -4 | Top | 94-105 | Win | 100 | 8 h 28 m | Show |
ASA 10* play on: LA Clippers -4 over Utah Jazz, 9PM ET – The Clippers are the best team in the NBA right now and Paul George hasn’t even seen the floor yet. Here’s what we’ve seen in this small sample size of the NBA. The Clippers have played the 4th toughest schedule to date based on opponents offensive and defensive efficiency ratings, yet they have the 11th best point differential at +4.7PPG. They are unbeaten at home with a point differential of +10.4PPG. Utah is going to be one of the better NBA teams this season, but they’ve played the second easiest schedule and current numbers are inflated. Utah faced the Lakers in Los Angeles earlier this season and were plus +3.5 points so the adjustment by the oddsmakers isn’t enough for the better of the two L.A. teams. Just how good is Kawhi Leonard you ask? He currently leads the Clippers in scoring, rebounding and assists. The Clippers just lost in Utah the other night but Kawhi was rested due to load management. He’ll play here and lead the Clippers to a double-digit home win. |

11-03-19 | Lions v. Raiders -2.5 | Top | 24-31 | Win | 100 | 27 h 42 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Oakland -2.5 over Detroit, Sunday at 4:00 PM ET Oakland is just happy to be home where they have not played since September 15th! They’ve played 5 consecutive games away from home including a game in London a few weeks back. They also had a bye thrown in so 6 full weeks and you can bet the loyal Black & Silver followers will be amped up for this game. The Raiders were 2-3 on their road trip and were quite impressive based on their competition. They beat Indy & Chicago during that stretch with losses @ GB, @ Minnesota, and @ Houston. They actually outgained GB on the road but the game turned on a few key turnovers including one late in the 1st half that turned into a 14 points swing in favor of the Packers. Last week @ Houston the Raiders never trailed until 6:00 minutes remaining in the game in a 27-24 loss and they outgained the Texans drastically averaging 7.1 YPP to just 5.2 for Houston. On that 5 game road swing the Raiders played the 2 best teams in the NFC North and the 2 best teams in the AFC South and presented themselves very well. On top of that, they played KC when Mahomes was a full strength so 5 of their 7 games this season have come against some of the top teams in the NFL. This team is better than their 3-4 record. Detroit comes in with a 3-3-1 record on the season and they are getting outgained by an average of 41 YPG (379 on offense / 420 on defense). Their defense has been very poor ranking 31st in the NFL in total defense ahead of only Cincinnati. The Lions have allowed at least 430 yards in 3 of their last 4 games. They also allow 130 YPG on the ground which is a bad match up here vs an Oakland running game that puts up 131 YPG. That should open things up for QB Derek Carr and we look for the Raider offense to have a big game vs a Detroit defense that has allowed at least 23 points in all but one game this season. Oakland wins and covers at home. |

ASA 10* TOP GAME PLAY ON NY Jets +7.5 over Jacksonville, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET We love the value here with the Jets. This line tells us that If Jacksonville was @ the Jets the line would be around a pick-em with the Jags potentially even favored. We just don’t see that. This line is too high and now with Sam Darnold back at QB we feel these teams are actually pretty close which would make Jacksonville -3 or -3.5 here, NOT -6.5. In this game we get the Jets coming in off an embarrassment on Monday Night football. They lost 33-0 to New England, not a huge surprise, and had 6 turnovers. The Patriots defensive schemes can do that to the best of offenses. We often see teams play much better off games like this. Often you can get some line value coming off a Monday Night game like that as people see a team struggle or get shutout and are reluctant to wager on them the next week. We definitely have that in this game. Let’s not forget a week earlier this NY Jets team, with Darnold back at the helm, beat Dallas. Now they play a so-so team in Jacksonville who comes in with a 3-4 record and trending downward in our opinion. We look for the Jets offense to play much better in this game. They are off a game facing a New England defense that has been historically good this year and now facing a Jacksonville defense that ranks in the bottom half of the league in most key stats (total defense, Yards per play defense, rush defense, and pass defense). They will also be without 3 key LB’s in this game and that means Jacksonville is down to 1 LB who’s played more than 1 snap this season. Those are key cluster injuries to a very important position. Most wouldn’t know it but the Jets have a top 10 defense on a yards per play basis allowing just 5.3 – Jags allow 5.9. The Jets offensive stats are very poor but not reflective of the current offense. They are a completely different offense with Darnold at the helm and the play calling reflects that. He has played in just 3 games but has led NY to all but one of their TD’s on the season. Also remember, that 2 of those games came against New England and Buffalo, two of the top three defenses in the NFL in total yards allowed. They are facing a Jacksonville team that won 27-17 @ Cincinnati (who’s now 0-7) last week but were trailing 10-9 in the fourth quarter and the Jags were the beneficiary of a pick 6 for 7 of their 27 points. QB Gardner Minshew was the talk of the NFL in his first few starts but now that there is film on him, he’s come back down to earth a bit and the defenses have adjusted. In his last 2 games, Minshew has completed just 29 of his 61 pass attempts (47.5%) with only 1 TD and 1 interception. He also had his two lowest QB ratings in those 2 most recent games. In their last 2 games vs the Saints & Bengals, the Jaguars had 22 total offensive possessions and Minshew led them to ONE touchdown. That’s it. He’s struggling and if that means Jacksonville has to rely on their running game, they are facing a Jets defense that ranks #2 in the NFL allowing only 3.3 yards per carry. We see this as a tight game throughout and one the Jets can absolutely win. Getting +7 or more here is worth a solid play in this one. |

10-26-19 | Pacers -5.5 v. Cavs | Top | 99-110 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 43 m | Show |
ASA 10* play on: Indiana Pacers -5.5 @ Cleveland Cavaliers, 7PM ET These two teams have very different season projections with the Pacers expected to win roughly 48 games while the Cavs season win total is 24. That essentially tells us what these teams are all about, so we have a good team off a loss laying a marginal number on the road. Granted, the Cavaliers are off a loss too but again, they are not a good team. Last season the Pacers were 18-17 SU off a loss, Cleveland was 15-47. Last year the Pacers were favored by -9.5-points and -7-points, so we have some value in today’s spread. Indiana had the 10th best road differential in the NBA a season ago with a top 10 road defensive efficiency ratings. The Cavs last season had the 3rd worst home point differential at minus -7.3PPG and were last in home defensive efficiency ratings. In the 4 meetings last season the Pacers won by 8 or more points. The Pacers have covered 5 of the last six meetings on this court. Lay the points. |

ASA PLAY ON: Boston Celtics -2.5 over Toronto Raptors, 7PM ET – We like the situation and will back the home team Celtics here off a loss in the opener. Toronto is off a home win which was much tougher than it should have been against the Pelicans. The Celtics lost in Philly the other night and the main contributing factor was poor shooting by the C’s. Boston hit just 36.7% of their overall FG attempts and under 27% from beyond the arc. Those numbers are drastically lower than their season averages a year ago and now they are at home in a more friendly shooting environment. Last season Boston had a top 12 team at home in: margin of victory, offensive and defensive efficiency ratings. Granted, Toronto had good road numbers too but that was with Kawhi Leonard who is clearly one of the three best players in the entire NBA. Against a bad defensive team from a year ago, the Pelicans (23rd in DEFF), the Raptors shot just 40% a team and benefited from ‘home cooking’ and +15 free throw makes in their win. Boston is 84-49 SU versus the East since 2017 and 57-26 SU at home as a favorite in that same time frame. With the line where it is, we are basically asking the Celtics to just win this game which they’ll do by more than the spread. Boston has covered four straight at home over Toronto and the host is on a 9-0 spread run. |

ASA PLAY ON: NY KNICKS +10.5 over San Antonio Spurs, 8:30PM ET – It’s a fresh start and the Knicks have a clean slate to start the season after tanking last year. New York doesn’t know how bad they’re going to be this season, so we expect a max effort tonight in San Antonio. In fairness to New York they will win more than 17 games this year with a semi-talented roster that can beat just about anyone in the East on any given night. Julius Randle is coming off his best season with 21PPG, 8.7RPG and 3.1APG and can play at a very high level. The backcourt is athletic with Dennis Smith Jr, Elfrid Payton, Reggie Bullock (out) and RJ Barrett. Marcus Morris and Taj Gibson brings veteran leadership and toughness while Kevin Knox and Bobby Portis have huge upside. New York was a dismal 8-32 SU on the road last season with an average differential of minus -10.8PPG which is essentially tonight’s spread AND that record is with them trying to lose to get the #1 pick in the draft! San Antonio returns a roster of veterans and youth and basically stood pat in free agency. They do get Dejounte Murray back from injury who is a budding star, but he did miss the entire season a year ago. The Spurs were 34-10 SU a year ago at home with an average margin of victory of just +6.7PPG. San Antonio was one of the slowest paced teams at home last year which makes covering larger numbers more difficult with less chances to score for each team. San Antonio was a double-digit home favorite 8 times last year and they only covered twice. New York stays within the number here. Grab the points! |

10-20-19 | Ravens +3 v. Seahawks | Top | 30-16 | Win | 100 | 28 h 52 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Baltimore +3 over Seattle, Sunday at 4:25 PM ET Seattle comes in with a shaky 5-1 record in our opinion. Four of their five wins have come down to the wire with margins of 1, 1, 2, and 4 points. Their only comfortable win was @ Arizona. All of their 5 wins have come against teams that are currently at or below .500 and again, most were decided in the last few minutes of play. The only team they’ve faced that currently has a winning record, the Saints, beat them here on their home field. Both of these teams come off deceiving results last week. Baltimore beat Cincinnati 23-17 but dominated the game outgaining the Bengals by 250 yards. Seattle was down 20-6 @ Cleveland and had to claw back to pick up a 32-28 win and were aided by 4 Browns turnovers (just 1 for Seattle). The Ravens lead the NFL in total offense averaging 450 YPG and their YPG differential is an impressive +100 (Seattle’s is +40). The Ravens also lead the NFL in rushing at 205 YPG and they are playing into a Seattle defense that allows 4.7 YPC (25th in the NFL). Their balanced attack with QB Jackson mixing in the passing game should keep the Seattle defense that allows 6.0 YPP (25th in the NFL) off balance. Seattle’s once vaunted home field advantage isn’t so great anymore. They are just 9-7 SU their last 16 home games and their ATS mark here is 6-11 their last 17 (0-3 ATS this year). They have not been impressive here this year with a 1-point win over an 0-6 Cincinnati team (Bengals outgained Seattle by 197 yards), a loss to New Orleans, and a 1-point win over the Rams who misses a FG as time expired which would have won the game. Baltimore, on the other hand, thrives in this role with a 6-0-1 ATS mark as a road underdog. We give the Ravens a great shot at the win and if not, we’re guessing it comes to the wire so any points are valuable here. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Detroit +4 over Green Bay, Monday at 8:15 PM ET Green Bay is off a big win @ Dallas but looking at the stats they were quite fortunate. The Cowboys outgained GB by 228 yards and averaged a whopping 8.2 YPP vs the Packer defense. Green Bay’s offense only averaged 5.2 YPP in the game. Dallas had 3 big turnovers which contributed to the Packer win. Green Bay is not quite as good as their 4-1 record might indicates as they are getting outgained by -40 YPG and -0.6 YPP. The defense looked great early but they’ve definitely come back to earth. After completely shutting down a bad Chicago offense in their season opener, the GB defense has allowed an average of 6.2 YPP over their last 4 games. Detroit has a situational advantage here coming off a bye. They have also beaten Green Bay 4 straight times including 2 wins here at Lambeau which gives them confidence coming in. The Lions have played a tough schedule beating the Chargers and Eagles. They blew a big lead @ Arizona to open the season in a game that ended in a tie and their only loss was vs the Chiefs in a game Detroit led with under 1:00 minute remaining. The Lions have scored at least 30 points in each of their last 4 meetings with Green Bay and with the Packer defense not as good as people are making them out to be, Detroit could get there again. All of Detroit’s games this year have been decided by 4 points or less and we see another close one here. Take the points. |

10-13-19 | 49ers v. Rams -3 | Top | 20-7 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 34 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON LA Rams -3 over San Francisco, Sunday at 4:05 PM ET We love this spot for the Rams. They have had a full 10 days to get ready for this one after their 30-29 road loss @ Seattle last Thursday. It was their 2nd of back to back losses after they lost to Tampa the previous Sunday. Now you have the team that was in last year’s Super Bowl sitting at 3-2 in a must win spot at home. The Niners, on the other hand, come in on a short week after beating Cleveland Monday night. So San Francisco is undefeated at 4-0 but they come into this game overvalued in our opinion. The four teams they’ve beaten are all currently under .500 and they have a combined record of just 5-15. Last year when these teams met in LA the Rams were -10.5 favorites and now they are laying only a FG? We realize Niner QB Garoppolo didn’t play in that game and SF looks improved but should this line really be a full 7.5 points off from last season? The value and situation absolutely favor LA here. In the Sean McVay era, the Rams have lost back to back games only twice and the rebounded with win and cover their next game both times. Historically NFL home favorites off Thursday night games (extra prep time) facing teams off Monday night games (short week) have covered 9 of 12 times. San Fran’s defense has looked good this year but let’s keep in mind that all of their opponents have an offense ranked 18th or lower (offensive efficiency via Football Outsiders) and 3 of those teams rank 25th or lower. The QB’s they’ve faced this year are Mason Rudolph, Andy Dalton, Baker Mayfield, and Jameis Winston. This week they take a step up facing Jared Goff. Now to the LA defense. After holding their first 3 opponents to 49 total points, the LA defense wasn’t great the last 2 weeks including last week @ Seattle where they allowed 30 points. However, the Seattle offense ranks 3rd in the NFL in efficiency which is far better than any offense SF has faced. They’ve already faced Russell Wilson, Cam Newton when he was healthy, and Drew Brees who are all far better than an QB the Niners have faced. We expect the Rams defense, which is very talented to play much better at home after two somewhat embarrassing performances. We also look for the offense to play well vs a 49er defense with solid stats because they’ve played weak offenses. This is a much, much bigger game for the experienced Rams and we like them to win by more than a FG. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Cincinnati +12 over Baltimore, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET The Ravens continue to be overvalued by the oddsmakers and the public. This team is simply not very good. Their defense ranks 31st allowing 6.7 YPP and the only team that is worse are the hapless Dolphins. The Ravens wins have come against Miami, Arizona, and Pittsburgh. The Arizona & Pittsburgh wins came down to the wire and last week the game with the Steelers, who were playing their 3rd string QB in the 4th quarter, went to OT. Despite playing an easy schedule, their only double digit win was @ Miami to open the season. The Bengals are 0-5 but they’ve been competitive more often than not with 3 of their 5 losses coming by 4 points or less. They’ve also played much better on the road this year taking Seattle & Buffalo, both better teams than Baltimore, to the wire in 1 and 4 points losses respectively. Cincy was +9 @ Seattle and +6.5 @ Buffalo and now they are getting double digits at division rival Baltimore? The value is absolutely on Cincinnati here. Laying double digits with a poor defense is not a way to get rich quick when wagering on football. Baltimore is already 0-2 ATS as a home favorite this season and just 10-22-1 ATS their last 33 games as a home chalk. Going back to 2010 they are 4-11 ATS as a double digit favorite. Cincinnati has lost by more than 11 points only twice in the last 20 meetings between these two AFC North rivals. The last time a team in this series was favored by double digits was way back in 2001 and the dog has also covered 9 of the last 10. This one should be close. Take the points. |

ASA play on: Cleveland Browns +5 over San Francisco 49ers, Monday 8:20PM ET - When we compare the key stats between these two teams we see some clear advantages on paper for San Francisco but we never just look at the numbers. We dig deeper. The Niners have one of the best rush defenses statistically in the NFL allowing just 3.4 yards per rush which ranks them 3rd. But they’ve played the Bengals (30th), Steelers (27th) and Bucs (24th) who are three of the worst rushing offenses in the NFL when it comes to yards per rush attempt. San Francisco will be tested here by a Browns offense that is 9th in RYPA at 4.9. That’s a big key for Cleveland as a strong running game takes pressure off QB Mayfield and opens up the play action pass. Sticking to that theme, the 49ers defense is ranked as one of the best in the NFL, but again, that’s a byproduct of the poor offenses they’ve faced. The Browns on the other hand are starting to look like a team that was hyped to be a contender in the AFC this season. Cleveland has the 8th most efficient defense in the NFL and have faced two of the best offenses already in Baltimore and the L.A. Rams. Jimmy G and the 49ers are 3-0 on the season but the three wins have come against teams with a combined 3-12 SU record. San Francisco is off a bye but that hasn’t helped them in the past as they are on an 0-6 ATS streak in that scheduling situation. The Niners are 7-17 ATS their last 24 home games and the last time they covered as a home favorite was 2014 with Jim Harbaugh as the coach. In fact, the 49ers are 1-12-1 ATS as a home favorite their last fourteen. Cleveland on the other hand excels as an underdog with a 9-5 ATS record dating back to the start of last season. SF has benefited with 2.3 takeaways per game, but they’ve also turned in over 2.7 times per game which is worst in the NFL. Don’t trust a favorite that doesn’t take care of the football. PLAY ON BROWNS! |

10-06-19 | Broncos +7 v. Chargers | Top | 20-13 | Win | 100 | 29 h 8 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Denver +7 over LA Chargers, Sunday at 4:00 PM ET This line looks fishy to us. The 0-4 Denver Broncos only getting 6.5 points? Shouldn’t this be 7 or higher? A few spots have +7 by the majority are at +6.5. The Chargers were favored by 7 and 7.5 in the two meetings last year. Looks like the oddsmakers are betting people to take the Chargers in this one. We actually like this Denver team. They are much better than their 0-4 record. They’ve lost 2 games on FG’s as time expired to Chicago and Jacksonville. They lost by 11 @ Green Bay in a game that should have been much closer as the yardage was dead even and the Packers scored on a 37 yard TD drive and 5 yard TD drive following Denver turnovers. We’re not sold quite yet on the Chargers. They are very close to being 1-3 with their only win coming vs the hapless Dolphins. Their other win was at home in OT vs the Colts in a game where Indy kicker Adam Vinitieri missed 2 FG’s and an XP. If not for that, the Colts win that game. Even last week vs Miami, it was a 20-10 game entering the fourth quarter and they outgained the Fins by just 157 yards and they were +1.0 yard per play. While that may look impressive, every other team that has played Miami has outgained them by at least 195 yards and were at least +2.8 YPP. LA also has very little home field advantage and we wouldn’t be surprised to see just as many Bronco fans in the seats on Sunday. The Chargers are 0-2 ATS at home this year and just 6-15 ATS their last 21 when playing host. This is a division game so while Denver is 0-4, they’ve been very competitive and we expect them to go all out here. The underdog is 12-4-2 ATS the last 16 meetings in this AFC West rivalry and we’ll call for another underdog cover. |

10-06-19 | Jaguars v. Panthers -3 | Top | 27-34 | Win | 100 | 26 h 2 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Carolina -3 over Jacksonville, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET This is a tough spot for the Jags as this will be their 3rd road game in 4 weeks including last week’s come from behind win @ Denver. Last week Jacksonville fell behind 17-3 @ Denver and had to battle their way back to get the last second win with a FG as time expired. The fact is, the Broncos ran 22 fewer offensive plays in that game and it still took a late FG to win the game for the Jaguars. Denver outgained Jacksonville on a YPP basis 6.9 to 6.0 but the Bronco defense allowed RB Leonard Fournette to run wild racking up 225 yards on the ground. Fournette had not topped 70 yards rushing in any game leading up to that performance so we see that as an outlier. Everyone is talking about the impact that QB Minshew has had on the Jags but how about Carolina QB Allen getting some notice? He gives the Panthers a much better chance to win compared to a banged up Cam Newton who couldn’t throw the ball down the field at all. Allen is now 2-0 as a starter and has thrown for almost 500 yards and 4 TD’s with no interceptions. His QBR is 65.8 which currently would rank him 6th in the NFL if he had enough snaps under his belt. For comparison’s sake, Minshew’s QBR is 47.0 which is 18th in the NFL and while we feel he is a very solid rookie, the hype has become a little much. Minshew also tweaked his knee late in last week’s game and is not 100% and was held out of practice until midweek. His counterpart Allen is not just another guy thrown in under center, he was a 5* QB recruit that actually beat out Heisman winner and Arizona QB Kyler Murray at Texas A&M prompting Murray to transfer to Oklahoma. He’s definitely not just another guy. Another aspect of Carolina’s team that gets overlooked is their defense which is really good. The Panthers currently rank 4th in the NFL in total defense allowing only 287 YPG and 2nd in YPP defense allowing just 4.3. Since losing 30-27 to the Rams in the season opener, Carolina has not allowed more than 20 points. They are very close to being 4-0 rather than 2-2 with close losses to the Rams & an emerging Tampa team. We would argue that if Allen had been under center since day one, this team might be 4-0. Add in the strong ATS stat that has Jacksonville just 4-20 ATS their last 24 games vs NFC team and this one looks solid. Just a very good situation to grab a surging Carolina team at home in this one. |

10-06-19 | Patriots -15 v. Redskins | Top | 33-7 | Win | 100 | 26 h 1 m | Show |
ASA 10* NFL PLAY ON New England -15 over Washington, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET Horrible match up for the Skins. It looks like Washington head coach Jay Gruden will be starting rookie Dwayne Haskins at QB or veteran Colt McCoy which is not ideal vs the Patriots top notch defense. Haskins came in last week vs a bad Giant defense and threw 3 interceptions in their 24-3 loss and they were outgained by over 200 yards. McCoy hasn’t taken a snap this season and has had very little practice time with his receivers due to his recovery from last year’s broken leg. If this offense with Haskins at the helm could only score 3 points vs a Giant defense that had allowed at least 28 points in every other game, what are they going to do against a New England defense that has allowed one TD the ENTIRE season. While this line is obviously high, it’s nothing new to the Patriots who have now been favored by more than 14 points three times this season. They controlled the other two games they were tabbed big favorites vs Miami & NY Jets outscoring them by a combined 73-14 and we’d put Washington in that terrible team category at the moment. There are also rumblings of Gruden being fired as early as next week so there are plenty of distractions to go along with this 0-4 team. Expect New England to play very well as they are coming off a poor outing. They did beat Buffalo 16-10 but they were outgained drastically by the Bills and Tom Brady had his worst QB rating in 13 years in that game. The Redskin defense had allowed 30 or more points in every game until the Giants scored 24 last week. The Patriots coming off a poor offensive showing should have a field day against this defense on Sunday. They shouldn’t have to score much to get this cover either. We don’t anticipate Washington doing much of anything offensively so New England scoring 24 or more will probably get this done. Lay it with the Patriots. Our MATH MODEL projects a Patriot 35-10 win giving us an easy cover. |

ASA 10* NFL TOP PLAY ON Philadelphia +4.5 over Green Bay, Thursday at 8:20 PM ET This is simply a huge game for the Eagles. They are currently 1-2 on the season and can’t afford to drop to 1-3 and still feel they have a decent shot at the playoffs with Dallas currently rolling through the NFC East. Their 2 losses came by 4 points @ Atlanta and 3-points vs Detroit so they are fairly close to being 2-1 or even 3-0. On their final possession last week they had the ball in Detroit territory but were unable to get into FG position for the tie. At Atlanta they had the ball inside the Falcon 20-yard line in their final possession but came up short on 4th down. They’ve definitely had their chances. If tonight’s game goes as we expect, it will be another very close game and we’re getting a full +4 to +4.5 points which would have covered or at worst pushed Philly’s first 2 losses. Green Bay is 3-0 but they have been outgained in every game and they are getting outgained by an average of 42 YPG. They have been the beneficiary of a +6 turnover ratio after just 3 games (1st in the NFL). While their defense is vastly improved it’s not like we are talking about a top 5 defense right now. As good as they’ve been, they are still ranked only 13th in total defense. It’s the turnovers they’ve created that are the difference so far this year and we feel that simply doesn’t continue (+2 turnovers per game). The offensive numbers have been poor. They are 3-0 despite scoring only 19 PPG (23rd in the NFL). They are ranked 28th in total offense and 28th in yards per play. The most concerning offensive stat in our opinion is their 3rd down conversion rate is just 25% ahead of only Miami & NY Jets. That ends offensive possessions early and is obviously a drive killer. Philly, on the other hand, is at 56% rate on 3rd down which 2nd in the NFL only behind Dallas. Right now we feel the Eagles are undervalued and Green Bay is overvalued right now. Take the points with Philadelphia. |

ASA 10* NFL PLAY ON Indianapolis (pick-em) over Atlanta, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET This line opened with Indy -3 which is where we thought it should be. The public remains enamored with Atlanta as they get bet hard on a regular basis. That has dropped this line down to -1 and now we’ll jump on the Colts. We were on Atlanta last week as a home dog which was an entirely different situation at home off a loss @ Minnesota. The Falcons picked up that home win over the Eagles and now they go on the road vs an AFC team playing their home opener. While bettors still love the Falcons, the fact it since their Super Bowl appearance in 2016, the Bird have a SU record of just 18-16. Indy comes in 1-1 having taken a very good Charger team to OT in the opener (loss) and then upsetting Tennessee on the road last Sunday. While this team lost Andrew Luck at QB, his replacement Jacoby Brissett is more than capable especially with a very good running game and one of the best offensive lines in the NFL. Brissett is completing 69% of his passes with 5 TD’s and just 1 interception on the season. That Indy running game is averaging 185 YPG (2nd in the NFL) and they are facing a Falcon defense that was gashed for 172 yards in their only road game @ Minnesota. The knew they could control the game on the ground (Minny won 28-12) so much so that they only attempted 10 passes the entire game. The Falcons are 1-8 ATS their last 9 as road underdogs and with the Colts now just having to win at home, we’ll grab them. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Atlanta +2 over Philadelphia, Sunday at 8:20 PM ET Hard to say teams are in must win mode in the 2nd week of the season, however we can put the Falcons in that category. After losing @ Minnesota to start the season (not surprising) they host the Eagles on Sunday night. After this game the Falcons are on the road for 3 of their next 4 games so this game becomes extremely important. In their loss in Minneapolis, the Birds are +9 first downs & +75 yards. However, they turned the ball over 3 times and had a punt blocked as well. All four of those miscues led to Minnesota TD’s which accounted to ALL 28 of their points. Here they face a Philadelphia team that got down 17-0 at home – 20-7 at half – vs a Washington team that was a 10 point dog in the game. They came back to win 32-27 but weren’t overly impressive in their opener. The Philly defense allowed Case Keenum and the Skins to throw for 380 yards and 3 TD’s. Now they face a much more potent Atlanta passing game, especially at home where QB Matt Ryan had a 118 passer rating last year compared to 99 on the road. These two met in last year’s season opener in Philadelphia. The Eagles scored a late TD with just over 2:00 minutes remaining to pull off the 18-12 come from behind win despite getting outgained by the Falcons. Matt Ryan is 10-1 ATS in home openers and he gets another win here. Take the points with Atlanta. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Pittsburgh -3.5 over Seattle, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET the Steelers are coming off an embarrassing performance on Sunday night @ New England and we have a feeling they bounce back and play very well on Sunday in their home opener. Roethlisberger has been unbeatable (8-0 ATS) when coming off a loss of 20 or more points in his career. We suspect he’ll have a big day vs a Seattle defense that allowed Bengal QB Andy Dalton to shred them for a career high 418 yards last Sunday. Seattle picked up the win in that game 21-20 but they were lucky to do so getting outgained by nearly 200 yards. In the game the Bengals averaged 6.1 yards per play to just 4.8 for Seattle. The offensive line looked shaky at best paving the way for only 72 rushing yards while Russell Wilson was only able to pass for 160 yards. Looks like the Steeler defense will be a reprieve this week after facing Tom Brady and the precise New England offense last week. We’ll give the Pittsburgh defense a break last week as they did look terrible but much of that we feel was the New England offense. This is still a defense that finished 6th in total defense and YPP defense last year. They’ll look much better this week and have a chip on their shoulder based on last week’s poor performance. Seattle’s ATS numbers as an underdog are solid, however they have been terrible in their road openers going 2-12 SU / 1-12-1 ATS since 2005. On the other side, when the Steelers are coming off a loss and favored by 3 or more points, they are 18-5 ATS since 2010. This one sets up nicely for Pittsburgh and we’ll lay the points. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Houston +7.5 over New Orleans, Monday at 7:10 PM ET Houston is too good to be getting a full TD in this game. We’re talking about a playoff team from a year ago (11-5 record) that upgraded their weak spot (offensive line) by adding LT Laremy Tunsil, one of the best in the game. They are facing a New Orleans team that might be a bit overhyped entering the season. The Saints are also a notoriously slow starting team going 0-10 ATS and 1-9 SU in their first 2 games of the season (over the last 5 years). They are also 0-5 ATS since 2015 as home favorites in September. Last year if you remember, in the opener the Saints were favored by 10 at home vs a bad Tampa team with Ryan Fitzpatrick at QB. The Bucs won the game 48-40. In their 2nd game, also at home, they barely held on to beat Cleveland by 3 points. Now we have one of the better teams in the AFC getting a full TD? We’ll take that. Houston has a solid defense and with Deshaun Watson at QB, they can definitely score enough points to keep up with the Saints if needed. It’s also been a very solid investment to take Monday Night underdogs during the first week of the season as they are 25-15 ATS since the late 80’s. We think Houston gives the Saints all they can handle on Monday and an outright win wouldn’t be a surprise. Houston and the points here. |

09-08-19 | Steelers +6 v. Patriots | Top | 3-33 | Loss | -120 | 32 h 57 m | Show |
ASA 10* PLAY ON Pittsburgh +6 over New England, Sunday at 8:20 PM ET The Pats are notorious for their slow starts as they tend extend their preseason into the first few games of the regular season so to speak. Head coach Belichick adjusts and tweaks early in the season until he finds the line ups he feels are most effective. Last year the Patriots lost to Jacksonville & Detroit early in the season, two teams that ended the year with losing records. A year earlier New England lost to both Carolina & KC, both games at home, early in the season. They were favored in all of those games and were -7 or more in 3 of the 4. Brady may take some time to adjust without top target Gronkowski in the line up and their offensive line could be a problem this year. Starting LT Trent Brown left in the off-season and he is being replaced Isaiah Wynn who hasn’t played a snap yet in the NFL. They are also starting a guard who is a career back up. Pats will be good but it may take some time this year. We are much higher on Pittsburgh than many. We feel this will be an addition by subtraction situation with RB Bell & WR Brown, two problems in the locker room, now gone. We’re hearing the chemistry for the Steelers is MUCH better right now than it was at any point last year. Roethlisberger is back and he has plenty of weapons offensively. We have the Steeler defense pegged as one of the best in the NFL this year (finished 6th in the NFL last year in YPG & YPP allowed). Roethlisberger has been historically very good as an underdog with a 34-18-3 ATS lifetime record. Even more impressive he has a winning outright record 30-25 SU in those games as an underdog! We realize that New England has done very well vs Pittsburgh, however we think this is a different circumstance. Take Pitt + the points. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Indianapolis +7 over LA Chargers, Sunday at 4:00 PM ET We think the betting market has overreacted to the loss of Andrew Luck for the Colts. This line was at Chargers -3 and now has jumped to -6.5 and some at -7. That’s move is too much in our opinion. While Andrew Luck was very important to this team, the Colts are solid across the board. They were in the top 10 in many defensive categories last year including scoring, total yards, yards per play, and yards per rush. On offense Jacoby Brissett is a more than capable back up and we actually consider him a middle of the pack starter in the NFL. He’s not great, but he’s not bad either. He’ll be operating behind an offensive line that is definitely one of the best in the NFL. They were ranked the 4th best rush blocking unit and 2nd best at pass blocking in the entire NFL last year by Football Outsiders. All 5 starters are back up front so they will be very good again. The LA Chargers are without their top RB Melvin Gordon and their home field advantage is very minimal at their make shift soccer stadium in LA which holds 27,000. In fact, for many of their home games there are just as many opposing fans as Charger fans. They were just 2-6 at home ATS last year. Our word is the Colt players really like Brissett. The locker room is very tight and we feel they will play on Sunday to show everyone this team was and is more than just Andrew Luck. Expect an inspired effort from a very solid Colts team as they give the Chargers all they can handle on Sunday. Take the points. |

ASA 10* PLAY ON Buffalo +3 over NY Jets, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET This line says that the Bills & Jets are rated basically the same and on a neutral field we’d have a pick-em game. We disagree. We have Buffalo rated as the stronger team and we’ll take the points here. We’re getting a strong defensive divisional underdog which always makes us sit up and take notice. Buffalo’s defense was outstanding last year. They finished 2nd in the NFL in total defense behind Baltimore only. They also finished 3rd in YPP defense and #1 in the NFL in pass defense. The Bills split with the Jets last year but a closer look reveals they dominated despite the 1-1 record. Buffalo won at NY 41-10 as an underdog last year and lost a tight game at home 27-23. In those two games combined, the Bills had 820 total yards to just 447 for the Jets. Their defense held NY to 3.6 & 4.7 yards per play. Expect them to stifle the Jets offense again on Sunday. Many discount the preseason but we do make note that Buffalo was 4-0 and looked very good. They have very solid continuity with the entire coaching staff back this year. The Jets, on the other hand, have a new head coach Adam Gase and new coordinators on both sides of the ball. While we expect New York to be improved, there will be a transition period with Gase in charge. There are a few technical points that back the Bills here as well. First, the underdog has dominated this series winning 9 of the last 11 meetings OUTRIGHT. Second, NFL division underdogs in week 1 of the season are a money making 17-4 ATS over the last 5 seasons. Our numbers have Buffalo’s chance of winning outright at more than 50%. We definitely have to take the points with the Bills. |

#271 ASA 10* PLAY ON Houston Texans (pick-em) over Dallas Cowboys, Saturday at 7:00 PM ET We have been thoroughly unimpressed with Dallas this pre-season. They are without 2 of their top offensive weapons (RB Elliot and WR Cooper) and they have scored just 23 total points in 2 games this preseason. The Boys were beaten by San Francisco in their opener and then struggled to top the LA Rams last week, a team that is playing NONE of their key players this preseason. Dallas was outgained in both of those games. While the 3rd preseason game is normally a dress rehearsal so to speak for the regular season, the Cowboys will be without 5 players who were All Pros last season. Head coach Jason Garrett also showed last year that he doesn’t necessarily view this game as one to get his starters ready for the regular season as he sat many of his key players in their 27-3 loss to Arizona in week 3 of the preseason. Garrett has also proven he has very little interest in the preseason with a 13-22 lifetime record including just 6-16 since 2014. Unlike Dallas, we have been impressed with Houston. Their offense is clicking scoring 56 points in their 2 games topping 400 yards in both. Dallas has yet to get to 300 yards in either of their 2 games. It looks like Houston will take this game much more seriously and we expect their regulars to get solid time in this game. That includes QB Deshaun Watson who has only thrown 7 passes this preseason. Head coach Bill O’Brien wants to get him ready for the opener in a few weeks. The Texans also have a strong rotation behind Watson as Joe Webb has already thrown for almost 500 yards in the first 2 preseason games. Unlike Garrett, Houston head man O’Brien seems to put more emphasis on the preseason as he has a 13-8 record. The Texans are viewed as the little guy in this state behind the Cowboys giving their players and coaches a little extra motivation even if it is just the preseason. The Texans will want to win this game. We’ll side with Houston on Saturday night. |

ASA 10* NFLX PLAY ON Detroit +1.5 over Buffalo, Friday at 8 PM ET Lots of people jumping on 2-0 Buffalo over 0-2 Detroit here. In fact, as of this writing well over 70% of the wagers have come in on Buffalo. We’ll go contrarian here and take Detroit to win their first pre-season game. The Lions are 0-2 but faced 2 of the better teams in the NFL in New England and Houston. Their defense has allowed 61 points in those 2 games, however both of their opponents were top 12 in scoring offense last year. Now they face a Buffalo offense that averaged only 16.8 PPG last year ranking them 30th in the NFL. After struggling the first 2 games we look for Detroit’s defense to play much better at home on Friday. Offensively the Lions looked MUCH better last week. They threw up a stinker in week 1 scoring only 3 points vs the Patriots. Last week @ Houston, the Lions put up 23 points and averaged 6.4 yards per play which was better than the 5.7 YPP put up by the Texans. Back up QB David Fales played very well going 12 of 19 for 226 yards and 2 TD’s. This week we expect starting QB Matthew Stafford to get his first action of the pre-season. While head coach Matt Patricia has not stated that Stafford will play, we can take a look at last year when Patricia had him playing into the 3rd quarter in Detroit’s pre-season week 3 win over Tampa Bay. While most NFL head coaches treat this as a trial run for the regular season, Patricia goes even further as the week leading up to this game is laid out exactly as it would be for a regular season games. That includes film study of upcoming opponent. Buffalo is 2-0 but they have yet to face a starting QB as Indy was without Luck and last week Carolina was without Cam Newton. The Bills are on the road for the 2nd straight week and we have a feeling this has now become a very big game for Patricia and the Lions after starting 0-2. This line opened with Detroit -2.5 which is where our projected line was as well but it now has moved to +1 because most are on Buffalo as we stated above. We like the value and the situation here. Take Detroit. |

In our opinion the biggest factor that favors the Saints is the quarterback rotation as former Vike Teddy Bridgewater will play a large portion of this game and then be followed by Taysom Hill. Bridgewater is a former starter and pro bowl players and should have plenty of success against the Vikings #2’s. Hill has some great preseason statistics and we won’t see a drastic drop-off when he enters the game. The same can’t be said for the Vikings who lack QB depth at this time and will give Sean Mannion, Kyle Sloter and Jake Browning the opportunity to win the back up job. The Viking struggled with their O-line a year ago and have made some changes up front which will take time to mesh as a unit. Minnesota was 18th in offensive efficiency a year ago and won’t be ready until the opener. The same can’t be said about the Saints offense that is deep and coming off a season where they ranked 4th overall in OEFF. Overall the Vikings were a better defensive unit than the Saints a year ago, but the separation isn’t drastic as Minnesota ranked 4th in DEFF, the Saints were 11th. Minnesota has some solid exhibition records under Zimmer but the offensive edge for the Saints later in this game is too much to overlook. Fade the public and bet New Orleans. |

ASA play on: Golden State -4.5 over Toronto Raptors, 9PM ET Friday, Game 4 – There are some key stats that support this wager but in laymen terms it boils down to a great team off a home loss as a favorite. The Warriors were 24-7 SU off a loss this season, 12-2 SU at home off a loss and the last six wins in a row at home off a beat are by an average of 15PPG. More specifically, when Golden State is off a home loss, they are 5-1 SU with wins by 7, 17, 14, 28 and 6 points respectively. The Warriors are 36-7 SU at home the past 3+ years in the playoffs with an average differential of +11.9PPG and only once in that time have, they lost back to back home games. Toronto shot the shit out of it in Game 3 with an effective field goal percentage of 62.8% which is basically unheard of. That is clearly abnormal too as the Warriors EFG % defense was 6th best in the NBA this season at 51%. Granted the Warriors 3-point defense was atrocious in Game 3 and a lot of that has to do with the absence of Klay Thompson and KD. Thompson will be back tonight which should make a difference in how the Warriors defend the Raptors beyond the arc tonight. The Raptors literally had everything go right in Game 3 and we just don’t see that happening in Oakland with the Warriors in a do-or-die situation. As we mentioned, defending the 3-point line will be key and we don’t see Danny Green and Kyle Lowry going 11 for 19 from downtown tonight. Steph Curry is certainly capable of a repeat performance of Game 3, but we must bet the rest of the Warriors play much better than they did in G3. The betting markets are backing Toronto tonight, yet the line is not fluctuating the way the money is flowing. That’s a clear sign to bet on Golden State tonight. |

ASA play on: Toronto Raptors +4.5 over Golden State Warriors, 9PM ET Wednesday – The number on this game is extremely short and typically we wouldn’t like going against the Warriors at home with this low of a line, but we’ll make an exception here. This isn’t the same Warriors team as injuries has taken its toll and there are just too many to overcome or justify betting them here. In Game 2 the Warriors got a HUGE boost with Boogie back on the floor as the logged 27 minutes, grabbed 10 rebounds and added 6 big assists and scored 11-points. But now the Raptors will have a plan in place to counter his presence and take advantage of a hobbled Klay Thompson if he’s able to suit up. The other big loss that’s not being talked about is Kevon Looney who has been a big energy guy and defensive stopper for Golden State. Even with Thompson scoring 25 in the last game before being hurt and shooting 46.3% as a team the Warriors managed just a 5-point road win in Game 2. Toronto had a horrendous shooting night in Game 2 (37.2%) so even if they have a less than stellar performance tonight, they can still cover this number. Toronto already has 4 playoff road wins this post season and that includes wins in Philadelphia and Milwaukee which are as tough a venue as you find. During the regular season this Raptors team had a +4.6 point road differential which was 3rd best in the league. Golden State wasn’t their usual dominate selves at home this year with the 11th best home differential of +6.6PPG (down from +7.6PPG last year, +15.9PPG the year before). The Raptors lost just 9 road games by more than 5-points this season which correlates to their 3rd rated offensive efficiency rating on the road and 4th best DEFF rankings. In closing, even if Klay can play tonight, just how effective can he be on one leg? That’s asking too much of Steph Curry and the rest of the team to overcome. This will be close throughout so we grab the points! |

ASA play on: Golden State +2 over Toronto Raptors, 8M ET – We are betting the more experienced, defending Champions, off a loss here. Toronto again got a huge game from Siakam in Game 1 but don’t count on a repeat performance here as he consistently hasn’t done that all season long. Leonard was again fantastic for the Raptors but he clearly was laboring throughout the game. The high or energy from the Game 1 win won’t be as pronounced for Toronto in Game 2 as they have a win under their belt. The Raptors are 41-11 SU at home this season with a +8.5 point differential. Golden State is 33-17 SU on the road this year with a +6.6 average point differential. Those numbers are some of the best in the league. This comes down to an experienced team that has “been here, done that” before against a team that has zero lottery players on their roster and almost none of them have played on this big of a stage before. The probability numbers we’ve run on this game tell us overwhelmingly to bet the underdog off a loss and the heavy factor against the Raptors is winning 6 straight games against the 2 other best teams in the NBA. Golden State was 23-7 SU off a loss this season, 72-19 SU or 79% since 2015. This Warriors team is a remarkable 44-11 SU their last 55 playoff games and we’re betting they bounce back here with a win in the North. |

ASA play on: Golden State +1.5 over Toronto Raptors, 9PM ET – Thursday Game 1 – The most recent memory in bettors minds right now is the Raptors beating the Bucks in the Eastern Conference Finals and they have bet accordingly. Give credit to the Raptors in that series win and their defense which was the difference. The Bucks literally didn’t make any adjustments in the last four games and tried to stay with their offensive philosophy which allowed the Raptors to essentially play zone defense. That won’t be a luxury against this Warriors team as they have way too many shooters to space the floor. Toronto could play off several Bucks in the last series but can’t here. The Warriors have had extra rest coming into this game and really didn’t miss a beat when Durant went down with his calf injury. In fact, they adapted and morphed into the team they were without him. Draymond Green has been a beast with Durant sidelined and provides another match up nightmare for Toronto. The Raptors were 40-11 SU at home this season with a +8.5 point differential. Golden State was 33-16 SU on the road this year with a +6.6 average point differential. Those numbers are some of the best in the league. This comes down to an experienced team that has “been here, done that” before against a team that has zero lottery players on their roster and almost none of them have played on this big of a stage before. Not to mention the veteran team and defending champion is an underdog. Before we go, we want to leave you with this. Is it more impressive that Kawhi Leonard was able to drag this team and roster to the Finals than the team LeBron took to the Finals with Love and Irving? Yeah, Leonard has been outstanding but even he can’t carry this team past the Champs. Play on Golden State in Game 1. |

Milwaukee Bucks +2 over Toronto Raptors, 8:30PM ET Saturday, Game 6 – The Raptors have had role players step up in big moments this series, but now that the spotlight and expectations are clearly high in this elimination game, we don’t expect the same production. Kawhi Leonard has been ridiculous in this series and I would argue has done more with less than LeBron and the Cavaliers a few years ago when they won their Ship. There is a reason the Bucks head coach Mike Budenholzer has been mentioned as a potential coach of the year and he’ll adjust here. If Giannis is on the floor then Bledsoe can’t be. The Bucks need to surround Giannis with shooters so the Raptors can’t collapse on him. If both Bledsoe and Giannis are on the floor, then Giannis needs to move to the baseline where he can roam behind the D. The Bucks are 10-4 SU in the post season with an overall average differential if +9.8PPG. The Bucks are 62-21 SU as a favorite this season with a 37-17 SU record versus other playoff teams this season. Let’s not forget just how dominate the Bucks have been this season as 52 of their 70 wins have come by double-digits. The Bucks road differential of +5.6PPG was second best in the NBA this season behind only the Golden State Warriors. Milwaukee had the 4th best road offensive efficiency at 1.123PPG and defensive efficiency allowing just 1.068PPP which was best in the league. We won’t ignore the Bucks 22-3 SU record off a loss, 10-2 SU on the road. The clincher for us though with this wager is value. The Bucks were favored by 3-points in the last game on this floor and are now a dog of 2 or more points. That is an over-reaction by the betting public and it’s always best to bet value over “feelings”. This series gets extended to a game 7. |

ASA play on: Milwaukee Bucks -7 over Toronto Raptors, 8:30PM ET Thursday, Game 5 – The Raptors sent a message in the last two games to remind everyone they had the 2nd best record in the NBA this season for a reason. But now that the venue changes and the teams head back to Wisconsin, we can expect Milwaukee to get a resounding win on their home court. Milwaukee had the second-best home record in the NBA during the regular season with a 33-8 SU record and an average differential of plus +12.1PPG. The Bucks are 10-3 SU in the post season with an overall average differential if +11.1PPG which balloons to +14.7PPG at home. The Bucks are one of the best shooting teams in the NBA at 47.4% and shoot 35% from beyond the arc and will find their groove again back at the Fiserv Forum. In Game 4 of this series the Raptors got HUGE production out of their bench and role players but that certainly won’t carry over on the road. Clearly the Raptors rely heavily on Kawhi Leonard and fatigue, along with a nagging knee/quad is becoming a huge factor for the Super Star as the playoffs wear on. The Bucks are 62-20 SU as a favorite this season with a 37-16 SU record versus other playoff teams this season. Let’s not forget just how dominate the Bucks have been this season as 52 of their 70 wins have come by double-digits. The Milwaukee Bucks had some of the best overall efficiency numbers during the regular season, and are the ONLY team left that have BETTER offensive and defensive efficiency numbers in the playoffs compared to the regular season. Nobody said this series was going to be an easy one for the Bucks and winning in Toronto is certainly a tough task, but back at home the Bucks get a much-needed win by a double-digit margin. |
