Thursday, Feb 2 2017 - Game Picks

                                      NBA
Atlanta/Houston OVER 223 (2U): (23-8, 3-1) (39-19, 6-4)
San Antonio (1H) -8.5: (104-52, 1-0) 
Golden St/LA Clippers OVER 227: (66-29, 17-10)

Atl/Hou OVER involves a RD off a blowout road div loss. Also a team off a blowout win as a HF that handled the ball very well, playing a team that just lost on the road going over.   San Antonio the same situation they were in the other night when they covered the 1H. Dubs/LAC OVER is a home team that got blown out by the opp last time they played.

The Dubs fell out of a play when they went to -9, they are a play up to -8.5. I was extremely tired getting these out before I went to bed, and didn't notice the odds filter.  Its not an awful play at -9, but its officially a pass. If you already played it, its not awful to keep it. 

Atl/Hou OVER is a 2U play. A couple very nice angles, with the first angle having gone OVER 13 out of the last 15 times its popped up. Atl/Hou OVER is tonight's Best Bet and 2U play. 


                                      NCAAB
Southern Mississippi +9: (39-15, 7-4)
James Madison +7: (66-25, 7-4)
Illinois Chicago/Wisc GB UNDER 159: (92-35, 32-16)
Southern Utah +18.5: (168-71, 0-1)
UTEP +6: (34-8, 2-0) (54-14, 3-2)
BYU +10: (54-14, 3-2)

So Miss is a situation where we are fading a RF/small dog that averages a lot that just lost in a blowout. James Madison is the RD/poor ATS vs a good ATS team. The UNDER play is the pace play. So Utah is fading a big HF that just played at home, vs an opp off a big loss. UTEP a HD off a blowout win vs a team that has scored a lot recently, Also, fading a RF that scores a lot/shoots well overall and has shot it very well recently, vs a team that shoots it pretty well also. BYU is the same situation as the second situation for UTEP, fading the RF.

Tonight's Best Bet/2U play is on UTEP. That HD angle has been great the past several years, and its playing on a team that is playing well.  It is on a crazy 26-2 run. Home Dogs are always a tough out in the NCAA, so let's make UTEP the Top Play.

This is the final play list. I have a Best Bet in both the NBA/NCAAB and I will try to list a BB every night for each. They have done very well lately and I will continue to try and target games that look better than the rest. I know some people like to target specific games, so I will try and find this plays. 

Have a great day and as always, good luck with your action.
