20* GEORGE WASH/UMKC CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on UMKC vs George Washington over 122½ -110

My money is on the OVER 122.5 in Friday's early afternoon clash between George Washington and UMKC. This is just too low a number. UMKC's defense comes in allowing a mere 58.6 ppg, but those are skewed because of their two games against non-D1 teams in Avila and Bacone, where they allowed 49 and 38 points. Their last game was against Bacone and that's important to note as the OVER is 9-1 in UMKC's last 10 after allowing 65 or less in 2 straight game. OVER is also 13-3 in their last 16 against teams who shoot 42% or worse. BET THE OVER 122.5! 

20* PELICANS/SUNS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pelicans +6 -110

My money is on the Pelicans to cash in a cover here as a 6-point dog against the Suns. New Orleans comes in with some confidence as they have won 2 straight. Pelicans are starting to healthy too and injuries have played a big part of their poor 5-9 start. Suns have lost 3 of 4 and they are now dealing with the injury bug, as their two big free agent pickups in Ricky Rubio and Aaron Baynes are both out. BET THE PELICANS +6! 

20* TEXAS/GEORGETOWN CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Texas -4 -108

My money is on the Longhorns to cash in a win and cover against Georgetown, as the two will face off at Madison Square Garden in the opening round of the Empire Classic. I think Shaka Smart has put together a really good team in Austin this year and are going to surprise some people. They are 4-0 and should no problem pulling away from what I think is a pretty average Hoyas team that already lost by 15 at home to Penn State. BET THE LONGHORNS -4! 

20* SPURS/WIZARDS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wizards +2 -110

My money is on the Wizards to cash in a win at home against the Spurs. I just don't get why San Antonio keeps getting so much love. The Spurs are just 5-9 overall and have lost 6 straight. They are also just 1-5 on the road where they are allowing 113 ppg. Wizards are just 3-8, but one of the best in terms of covering with a 8-3 ATS mark. Washington should be poised for a great effort here playing on 2 days rest. BET THE WIZARDS +2! 

15* JAMES MADISON/OLD DOMINION CBB SHARP WINNER on Old Dominion -9½ -108

My money is on the Monarchs to cash in an easy win and cover at home against James Madison. This is just not a good matchup for the Dukes who really rely on their ability to score in transition. ODU is one of the best in the country at not letting teams exploit them on the fast break. I just don't see James Madison being able to score enough to keep this within single digits. BET THE MONARCHS -9.5! 

20* N KENTUCKY/BALL ST CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Ball State -7½ -108

My money is on the Cardinals to cash in a win and cover at home against the Norse. I just think Northern Kentucky will have a hard time keeping this close without starting point guard Jalen Tate. They were able to win last time out against Coppin State without him, but that's an awful team. Ball State has started out 3-1 with their only loss coming at Evansville. Most recently they routed Indiana State by 14 as a mere 2-point favorite. The game before they rolled Illinois Chicago on the road by 19 as a 4.5-point favorite. Books just haven't caught up to this team. BET BALL STATE -7.5! 

20* WYOMING/DETROIT CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Detroit PK -108

My money is on the Titans to cash in a win and cover as a pick'em on the road against Wyoming. Detroit has started out 0-2, but that was to be expected, as they opened the season with road games at NC State and Clemson. While they did fail to cover in either game, they were able to keep both somewhat respectable. Wyoming is just not a good team and have already lost twice at home, including a 7-point loss to CS-Fullerton as a 3-point favorite. BET DETROIT PK!

20* WARRIORS/GRIZZLIES NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Grizzlies -4½ -110

My money is on Memphis to cash in a win and cover at home against the Warriors. Golden State's season just can't get any worse. Having already lost their two best players in Curry and Thompson, they now must find a way to make things work without D'Angelo Russell. Memphis might seem like a team they can compete against, but the Grizzlies are playing well with 3 wins in their last 4. BET MEMPHIS -4.5! 

20* SIU EDWARDSVILLE/S DAKOTA CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on SIU-Edwardsville vs South Dakota under 144 -109

My money is on the UNDER 144 in Monday's college hoops matchup between SIU-Edwardsville and South Dakota. I just think the total here is too high. I get South Dakota is averaging 81.5 ppg, but Edwardsville is only scoring 63.5 ppg and a mere 58.5 ppg on the road. I have this one handicapped closer to 135. BET THE UNDER 144! 

20* CAVS/KNICKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Knicks -1½ -110

My money is on the Knicks to cash in a win at home against the Cavs. I know New York isn't great, but this is too good a price to pass up with them at home against a Cleveland team that has lost 3 straight and playing in the 2nd game of a back-to-back after hosting the 76ers on Sunday. BET THE KNICKS -1.5! 

15* SETON HALL/ST LOUIS CBB SHARP WINNER on St. Louis +7½ -111

My money is on the Billikens to cash in a cover here as a near double-digit home dog at Seton Hall Sunday. St Louis has started out 3-0 SU and 3-0 ATS, all 3 wins coming by double-digits. There's no denying the Pirates are a really good team, but this is a big letdown spot on the road just 3 days after hosting and losing a heartbreaker at home against Michigan State. BET ST LOUIS +7.5! 

20* CELTICS/KINGS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Celtics vs Kings under 217 -110

My money is on the UNDER 217 in Sunday's NBA action that has the Kings hosting the Celtics. Sacramento has been a UNDER team early, as it's cashed in 7 of their first 11 games. Better defensive play is a big part of that. In their last 5 games they are only giving up 104.6 ppg. Boston is a strong defensive team as well. Celtics are only giving up 102.8 ppg on the road. UNDER is 7-1 in the Kings last 8 vs a team that's won more than 60% of their road games. BET THE UNDER 217! 

20* UCF/ILLINOIS ST CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Illinois State -1 -110

My money is on the Redbirds to cash in a win and cover at home against the Knights. Illinois State has started out 2-0 with a big home win under their belt over Belmont, where they won 79-72 as a 5.5-point dog. Redbirds are 26-13 ATS last 39 as a home favorite of 3 or less. BET ILLINOIS STATE -1! 

15* MINNESOTA/UTAH CBB SHARP WINNER on Minnesota +4 -110

My money is on the Gophers to cash in a win and cover at Utah in Friday's college hoops action. I just think it's a good spot to buy low on Minnesota, who has started out 1-2, but unlike some other teams that just play cupcakes early, two of their games were against Oklahoma and Butler and they were dogs in both, so the record isn't all that surprising. They really couldn't have shot any worse in both those losses and yet they lost both by single digits. I like them to win outright, but will take the points as insurance. BET THE GOPHERS +4! 

20* NBA JAZZ/GRIZZLIES NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Jazz -6½ -110

My money is on the Jazz to cash in an easy win and cover at Memphis Friday night. Grizzlies come in off back-to-back wins and covers as a road dog against the Spurs and Hornets, but neither of those teams are playing well and I feel it has them way overvalued against one of the best teams in the Western Conference. Utah has won 4 straight and 6 of 8 overall and should only get better as the season progresses. BET THE JAZZ -6.5! 

20* NCAAB - W VIRGINIA/PITT CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pittsburgh PK -108

My money is on the Panthers to cash in a win at home against the Mountaineers. Great value with Pitt at a pick'em in this one. Panthers may still have a ways to go to be taken seriously in the ACC, but they should be greatly improved from last year's team that went just 14-19 overall and 3-13 in conference play, especially at home. West Virginia is also a very young team that is relying on a lot of freshmen and sophomores and it's always tough on inexperienced teams in their first true road game of the season. BET THE PANTHERS! 

20* MICH ST/SETON HALL CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Michigan State vs Seton Hall under 143½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 143.5 in Thursday's college hoops matchup between Michigan State and Seton Hall. Spartans put up 100 in their last game, but only saw a combined 131 points in their opener against Kentucky. While Michigan State fell to the Wildcats, their defense held Kentucky to just 38% from the field. I look for their defense to dominate against a Seton Hall offense that won't have it's star player in Myles Powell. This is also a pretty good Pirates defensive team. BET THE UNDER 143.5! 

20* BULLS/BUCKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bucks -11 -110

My money is on Milwaukee to cash in a win and cover at home against the Bulls on Thursday. Chicago is coming off a win and cover, but that was at home against an awful Knicks team. Bulls have been a major disappointment this season and just don't have the talent to keep it close against an elite team like Milwaukee. BET THE BUCKS -11! 

20* RAPTORS/BLAZERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Raptors +4½ -110

My money is on the Raptors to cash in a cover at Portland Wednesday night. I get the Blazers made it to the Western Conference Finals last year, but that was a fluke and it's showed early on. Portland has lost 5 of 6 and are in a horrible rest spot playing in the 2nd game of a back-to-back after last night's upset loss to the Kings, who were missing Fox. BET THE RAPTORS +4.5! 

20* INDIANA ST/LOUISVILLE CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Indiana State vs Louisville over 147 -105

My money is on the OVER 147 in Wednesday's college hoops action that has Indiana State visiting No. 4 Louisville. The Sycamores gave up 86 on the road in their opener against Dayton and I wouldn't be shocked at all if the Cardinals put up 90+ in this one. Key here is that Indiana State can score. They had 81 and shot 47% from the field vs the Flyers. BET THE OVER 147! 

15* ILL-CHICAGO/BALL ST CBB SHARP WINNER on Ball State -3½ -109

My money is on the Cardinals to cash in a win and cover at Illinois-Chicago tonight. Ball State comes in off a 75-79 loss at Evansville as a 1.5-point dog. A defeat that looks a heck of a lot better after the Purple Aces just upset No. 1 Kentucky. Illinois-Chicago barely beat Olivet Nazarene 75-72 in their opener and then were trounced by 46 in a 92-46 loss to Memphis. BET BALL STATE -3.5! 

20* NETS/JAZZ NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Jazz -7½ -115

My money is on the Jazz to cash in a win and cover at home against the Nets. I just don't see Brooklyn being able to keep this close. The Nets are one of the worst defensive teams in the league and the Jazz are one of the best. With the game in Utah and Brooklyn in the midst of a road trip, I see this getting ugly in a hurry. BET THE JAZZ -7.5! 

15* CREIGHTON/MICHIGAN CBB SHARP WINNER on Creighton vs Michigan over 147 -110

My money is on the OVER 147 in Tuesday's CBB matchup between Michigan/Creighton. The Bluejays should have one of the most efficient and explosive offenses in the country. The Wolverines were more of a defensive team under Beilein and I think are going to more offensive attack under Juwan Howard. I think both teams could score into the 80s here. BET THE OVER 147! 

20* PACIFIC/HAWAII CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hawaii -5½ -110

My money is on the Rainbow Warriors to cash in an easy win and cover at home against the Tigers. Pacific just isn't a great team and it's really tough to beat this Hawaii team on their home floor. Warriors did lose last time out, but are 6-2 ATS last 8 off a loss. Tigers have played all 3 at home and are just 5-11 ATS last 16 on the road after 3 straight at home. BET HAWAII -5.5! 

20* DEPAUL/IOWA CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on DePaul +9½ -110

My money is on the Blue Demons to cash in a cover on the road against the Hawkeyes in Monday's college hoops action. I just feel like DePaul is a team to watch out for this year, while Iowa is a team that I think is getting way too much love. It might be tough for the Blue Demons to win this game, but I love their chances to keep it within single digits. BET DEPAUL +9.5! 

20* GRIZZLIES/SPURS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Grizzlies vs Spurs over 221 -110

My money is on the OVER 221 in Monday's NBA action that has the Spurs hosting the Grizzlies. This is just too good a price to pass up with how these two teams are playing defensively to start the season. Memphis comes in allowing 120.1 ppg and the Spurs are giving up 115.5 ppg at home. Last time out SA gave up 135 to the Celtics at home and last time out for Memphis they gave up 138 at home to the Mavs. OVER is 16-4 in the Spurs last 20 after giving up 120 or more. BET THE OVER 221! 

20* S DAKOTA/HAWAII CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on South Dakota vs Hawaii under 140½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 140.5 in Sunday's college hoops matchup between South Dakota and Hawaii. Rainbow Warriors saw a combined 117 in their opener against Florida A&M, as they shot just 36% from the field while allowing 28%. South Dakota only saw 134 in their opening win at Pacific. These two will struggle to get to 130. BET THE UNDER 140.5! 

20* HAWKS/BLAZERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Blazers -8½ -105

My money is on the Blazers to cash in an easy win and cover at home Sunday night against the Hawks. Portland is going to be a pissed off bunch, as they have started out 0-3 at home this season. They should have no problem putting away Atlanta. Hawks just followed up a 20-point home loss to the Bulls with a 12-point home loss to the Kings. It's not getting any better on the road. BET THE BLAZERS -8.5! 

20* BUCKS/JAZZ NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Jazz +1½ -100

My money is on the Jazz to cash in a win and cover at home against Milwaukee. The Bucks are simply way overvalued right now. No way should they be a road favorite here against the Jazz, especially given the spot. Milwaukee will be playing their 3rd straight on the road and 5th game away from home in their last 6. BET UTAH +1.5! 

20* HARVARD/NORTHEASTERN CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Harvard PK -110

My money is on Harvard to cash in an easy win and cover here as a pick'em against Northeastern. The Crimson annihilated MIT 84-27 in their opener and should have no problem cruising to a victory against a rebuilding Huskies team. Northeastern lost a lot from last year's 23-win team, including leading scorer vasa Pusica and big man Anthony Green, as well as a couple other key role players to the transfer portal. BET HARVARD -110! 

15* OAKLAND/DELAWARE CBB SHARP WINNER on Delaware +5½ -109

My money is on the Blue Hens to cash in an easy cover here against the Grizzlies, as my numbers suggest this should be closer to a pick'em. Delaware is a legit threat to win the Colonial this year, as they got a dynamic backourt returning with Ryan Allen and Kevin Anderson. Also, Blue Hens are a great 3-point shooting team. Oakland won just 16 games last year and were absolutely decimated by transfers leaving in the offseason. They have 5 guys transfer out and could fall back into the bottom half of the Horizon. BET DELAWARE +5.5! 

20* IDAHO ST/AIR FORCE CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Idaho State vs Air Force under 138½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 138.5 in Wednesday's college hoops action that has Air Force taking on Idaho State. The Bengals played on Tuesday at Wyoming and that game finished with a combined 94 points, a full 47 points below the total set of 141. That was with Wyoming shooting 51.4% from the field. Books have not adjusted enough here. BET THE UNDER 138.5! 

20* CELTICS/HORNETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hornets +6½ -110

My money is on the Hornets to cash in a cover at home against the Celtics. Hornets aren't going to get too many prime time games, so we can expect a big effort here with this game being on TNT. Not to mention they are going to be motivated to spoil the return of Kemba Walker. Celtics have won 5 in a row, but are playing their 2nd road game in 3 days and barely held on for a 6-point win at Cleveland last time out. BET THE HORNETS +6.5! 

20* 76ERS/JAZZ NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on 76ers +2 -105

My money is on the 76ers to cash in a big road win at Utah tonight. The books are just begging for you to take the Jazz, which tells me they like Philly's chances of winning this game. 76ers have really looked good early. They did lose their last game at Phoenix, but Embiid was suspended for that one. Utah also just hasn't looked great to start out the season. BET THE 76ERS +2! 

20* VIRGINIA/SYRACUSE CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Virginia vs Syracuse under 127 -110

My money is on the UNDER 127 in Wednesday's ACC hoops action between Virginia and Syracuse. As long as Bennett is the head coach of the Cavaliers, defense is going to be the calling card for that team. With all the offensive talent they lost, it will be even more the case this season. As for Syracuse, they are as deep as they have been in a while and are also a team that really brings it defensively, just in a little different way. BET THE UNDER 127! 

15* CAL-IRVINE/SAN DIEGO CBB SHARP WINNER on Cal-Irvine -2½ -109

My money is on the Anteaters to make easy work and cover the short number at home against the Toreros. San Diego won 21 games last year, but lost a ton from that team, including 3 double-digit scorers. UC-Irvine has 3 guys back, including a couple of senior guards to shoulder the load and get this team to the NCAA Tournament. BET THE ANTEATERS -2.5! 

20* MICH STATE/KENTUCKY CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Michigan State vs Kentucky under 141 -110

My money is on the UNDER 141 in Tuesday's big NCAA Basketball showdown between No. 1 Michigan State and No. 2 Kentucky. Both of these programs really pride themselves with defense and I just think the first game chitters combined with the talent on the defensive end will have this staying well below the number. BET THE UNDER 141! 

15* MICHIGAN ST/KENTUCKY CBB SHARP WINNER on Kentucky +2½ -110

My money is on the Wildcats to pull off the minor upset against the Spartans. I think just about everyone is taking Michigan State because of them being ranked No. 1 and everyone favorite pick to win it all. Even though Kentucky might not have the experience as the Spartans, they definitely are every bit as talented and will be the more motivated side in this one. Give me the Wildcats +2.5! 

20* MAGIC/THUNDER NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Magic vs Thunder under 204 -103

My money is on the UNDER 204 in Tuesday's NBA showdown between Orlando and OKC. Not a lot of explanation needed besides these are two of the better defensive teams and two of the worst offensive teams. I don't see either side getting to 100 points. BET THE UNDER 204! 

20* BUCKS/WOLVES NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wolves +6½ -104

My money is on the Timberwolves to cash in as a 6.5-point home dog. No question Milwaukee is the better team, but winning on the road is never easy in the NBA, especially in a spot like this. Bucks off a big game against Toronto and each of their next 3 are all bigger than this one. Especially with Minnesota playing without Towns. They won by 22 last time out without him and have been one of the big surprise teams early. BET THE T-WOLVES +6.5! 

20* JAZZ/CLIPPERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Jazz +5 -105

My money is on Utah to cash in a cover on the road against the Clippers. The Jazz just beat the Clippers 110-96 at home last week, but because Khawi didn't play they get no credit for that outcome. Most will just take LAC at home in the rematch with Khawi back in the lineup. Not me. The value is with Utah at this price and I wouldn't be shocked if the Jazz won outright. BET UTAH +5! 

20* CAVS/PACERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cavs +8 -105

My money is on the Cavs to cash in a cover on the road against the Pacers. Indiana comes in off a win and cover against the Nets, but let's not overreact to one game. Pacers had lost their first 3, including a double-digit loss on the road to this Cleveland team. Indiana also just lost one of their best players in Myles Turner. Cavs are more than capable of winning this game outright. BET CLEVELAND +8! 

20* SPURS/CLIPPERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Clippers -5 -105

My money is on the Clippers -5 at home against the Spurs. I think we are getting a good price on LAC due to them off an ugly loss last night at Utah, but Kawhi didn't play. Also Spurs getting some love from the books after their 3-0 start. There's just some games that mean more than others and I think Kawhi wants to lay it on his old team. BET THE CLIPPERS -5! 

20* SUNS/WARRIORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors -5 -105

My money is on the Warriors to cash in a win at home against the Suns on Wednesday. Golden State looked awful in their first two games, getting destroyed by 19 at home to Clippers and by 28 at OKC. They responded as you would expect with a 11-point win at New Orleans and I think are showing great value here against an overvalued Phoenix team that is getting a little too much love after their 4-0 ATS start. BET THE WARRIORS -5! 

20* HAWKS/HEAT NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hawks vs Heat over 223 -106

My money is on the OVER 223 in tonight's NBA matchup between the Heat and Hawks. Miami in years past has been known for their defense, but all 3 of their games this season have seen at least 121 points and that's with them not allowing a single opponent to shoot better than 44%. I also think defense won't be as big a focus for either team knowing that these two will turn around and play each other on Thursday. OVER is 25-14 in the Hawks last 39 as a dog of 3.5 to 9.5 points. BET THE OVER 223! 

20* BULLS/KNICKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Knicks PK -110

My money is on the Knicks to cash in their first win of the season, as they host the Bulls on Monday. Chicago is a team a lot of people were high on coming into the season, but just haven't looked great early. They shot just 29% and scored 84 points in their home opener against the Raptors on Saturday. Bulls have to be a tired team right now. They are playing for the 4th time in 6 days. They started out the season at Charlotte, then went to Memphis, returned home and now are in New York. BET THE KNICKS! 

20* WARRIORS/THUNDER WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Thunder +1 -110

My money is on the Thunder to cash in a win at home against the Warriors. Warriors got annihilated 141-122 at home in their season opener and the concerns of how this team would look without Thompson, Durant and several other key pieces is legit. Thunder are coming off an ugly loss at home to the Wizards, but I'm confident they bounce back. BET OKC +1 

20* WIZARDS/THUNDER NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Thunder -7 -110

My money is on the Thunder to cash in an easy cover here as a mere 7-point favorite against the Wizards. A lot of people are writing off OKC because they don't have Westbrook or George, but there's more than enough talent for this team to compete for a playoff spot in the west. We saw some of that in their mere 5-point loss as 9-point dogs against a Utah team people are extremely high on. Wizards are one of the worst teams in the league. BET THE THUNDER -7! 

20* CLIPPERS/WARRIORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Clippers +1 -109

My money is on the Clippers to cash in a win and cover at Golden State. Warriors are just not the same team without Durant and Thompson. They don't just not have those two. A lot of their key role players are gone and the depth the Warriors had is what made them so special. Clippers are a team with a ton of depth and already knocked off one of the title favorites in the Lakers on Tuesday. They make another statement tonight. BET LOS ANGELES +1

20* PISTONS/PACERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pacers -5 -109

My money is on the Pacers to cash in an easy win at home against Detroit. Indiana is one of the deeper teams in the east and have a strong home court edge. Pistons don't impress me much and will be without their best player in Blake Griffin. I don't see Detroit being able to generate enough offense to keep this close. BET THE PACERS -5!

20* PELICANS/RAPTORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pelicans vs Raptors over 231 -110

My money is on the Raptors and Pelicans to go OVER the total of 231 in Tuesday's season opener. I got a good feeling this New Orleans team is going to be involved in a lot of high-scoring games with the talent they got offensively, the pace of play they will be playing at and the lack of effort on the defensive end. No Zion will slow them down some, but not enough. Raptors are also a sneaky good offensive team and will get plenty of easy looks at home against this Pelicans defense. Both teams ranked Top 5 pace of play in preseason and NBA scoring just keeps going up with how teams shoot the 3. BET THE OVER 231! 

20* RAPTORS/NETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Raptors vs Nets under 224½ -111

20* ROCKETS/CLIPPERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rockets -4½ -110

20* RAPTORS/WARRIORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors -3½ -105

My money is on the Warriors to cash in an easy win and cover in Game 6 at home. I don't know if Golden State will have what it takes to win Game 7 on the road without Durant, but I like them to get the chance to try. This will be the final game at Oracle and a crowd that has maybe got a little too use to winning is going to be as electric as they have been in years. I think the atmosphere will fuel the Warriors. Bet Golden State -3.5!  

20* WARRIORS/RAPTORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors +4 -110

My money is on the Warriors to cash in an easy win and cover here at Toronto in Game 5. I think the Raptors are going to struggle to match the fire that Golden State is going to bring to this game, with or without Durant in uniform. If Durant plays, this could get ugly, as I think he the Warriors to a whole different level. If he doesn't Curry, Thompson and Green will find a way to at least send this thing back home for Game 6. Bet the Warriors +4! 

20* RAPTORS/WARRIORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors -5½ -105

My money is on the Warriors to cash in an easy win and cover at home in Game 3. Golden State won't have Durant, may not have Klay, but they still got Steph Curry and Draymond Green. Not to mention DeMarcus Cousins appear ready to give a lot more than people were expected. Both of these team also really benefit from their home fans and I think the atmosphere is going to be as good as it's been all season at Oracle tonight. Bet the Warriors -5.5! 

20* WARRIORS/RAPTORS WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Raptors -1½ -109

My money is on the Raptors to cash in an easy win and cover here at home in Game 2 of the NBA Finals. Toronto was way underpriced in Game 1, as they won going away as a small home dog. While they are favored in Game 2, it's not nearly enough with Durant still sidelined for Golden State. Bet the Raptors -1.5! 

20* WARRIORS/BLAZERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors -3½ -105

My money is on the Warriors to cash in a win and cover as they finish off the sweep of Portland and move on to the NBA Finals. Blazers have had their chances, but this thing is all but over with them down 3-0 and Lillard playing at less than 100%. Golden State is all business on their way to a 3-peat and won't be letting their foot off the gas in this one. Bet the Warriors -3.5! 

20* BUCKS/RAPTORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bucks +2½ -109

My money is on Milwaukee to cash in an easy win and cover in Game 3 at Toronto. Most will look to back the Raptors at home in a must-win, but I think we are going to see the Bucks take a 3-0 series lead, as they are simply the better team. Milwaukee came out flat in Game 1 and still managed to win. They were much more focused from the start in Game 2 and won by 22. Toronto might keep it close, but it won't be enough. Bet the Bucks +2.5! 

20* WARRIORS/ROCKETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors +7 +102

My money is on the Warriors to cash in an easy cover in Game 6 at Houston. I get the Rockets have the edge with Durant out, but the Warriors are far from depleted. They still have more than enough fire-power to not only keep this game close but win it outright. Keep in mind all the pressure is on the Rockets in this game, as they are the ones facing elimination. Bet the Warriors +7! 

20* NUGGETS/BLAZERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Blazers -3½ -102

My money is on the Blazers to cash in an easy win and cover at home in Game 4 against the Nuggets. Blazers found a way to win the overtime thriller in Game 3 at home and are now a perfect 4-0 on their home court in the playoffs. No surprise and no reason not to expect that to continue. Give me Portland -3.5! 

20* NUGGETS/BLAZERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Blazers -4 -105

My money is on the Blazers to cash in an easy win and cover as the series shifts to Portland for Game 3. The Blazers held their own in a close loss in Game 1 and rebounded with a 97-90 win in Game 2. Denver's just not shooting the ball well right now and that's a big concern on the road, especially in what will be a very hostile environment at the Moda Center. Bet the Blazers -4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nuggets -3½ -105

My money is on the Nuggets to cash in an easy win and cover as a small home favorite against the Blazers. Denver won and covered in Game 1 and that was with the Nuggets getting just 1-day of rest after securing a Game 7 win at home against the Spurs. I just think Denver is hands down the better team, especially on their home floor and this number should be closer to 7-8 points. Bet the Nuggets -3.5! 

20* CELTICS/BUCKS (GAME 2) WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bucks -7 -110

My money is on the Bucks to rebound from that ugly Game 1 loss at home with a resounding blowout of their own in Game 2. Milwaukee couldn't have played much worse. Not only did Boston disrupt their offense by how they guarded the Greek Freak, the Bucks didn't play anywhere close to their potential on defense (Boston shot 54%). I'm confident Giannis will have a big game and the defensive effort will be there. Bet the Bucks -7! 

20* CELTICS/BUCKS (GAME 1) WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bucks -7 -110

My money is on the Bucks to cash in a win at home against the Celtics. I just think Milwaukee is a class above the other 3 powers in the East and will make easy work of Boston in Game 1. Celtics had it pretty easy in the first round against Indiana. I still think there's a lot of flaws with this year's Celtics team and they simply won't be able to keep pace with the Bucks on the road. Bet Milwaukee -7! 

20* WARRIORS/CLIPPERS (GAME 6) WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors -9 -105

My money is on the Warriors to not only clinch their opening round series against the Clippers, but win on the road in LA by at least 10 points. Golden State fell in the trap of just assuming they would roll in Game 5 at home and didn't show up with the right energy and got beat. No way is this team going to keep toying with Los Angeles. Warriors will be 100% locked in tonight and there's nothing the Clippers can do to make a game of it. Bet Golden State -9! 

20* NUGGETS/SPURS (GAME 6) WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Spurs -3 -105

My money is on the Spurs to cash in an easy win and cover as a small home favorite. San Antonio has dropped the last two after taking a 2-1 series lead, but are primed to bounce back on their home floor, where they have dominated all season long. Spurs are 14-5 ATS last 19 at home vs a team with a winning record and Nuggets are 11-23 ATS L34 road games off a home win. Bet the Spurs -3! 

20* CLIPPERS/WARRIORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors -14 -110

My money is on the Warriors to easily win and cover this massive spread at home against the Clippers. Golden State is just too good and will be plenty motivated here. Not only to makeup for blowing a 31-point lead in their last home game of the series in Game 2, but to simply put an end to the series and move on the Western Conference Semifinals. Bet the Warriors -14! 

20* NETS/76ERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on 76ers -7½ -110

My money is on the 76ers to cash in an easy win and cover at home against the Nets. Philadelphia has won 3 straight in the series and are simply the better team. With a chance to close out the series at home, I not only think the 76ers win, I see a similar type of outcome to Game 2, which they won by 22 points. Bet the 76ers -7.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Pistons +12 -105

My money is on the Pistons to do something they haven't done all series, cover the spread. Detroit hasn't really came close to covering in any of the first 3. However, they did put up a much better fight at home in Game 3 and got back their best player in Blake Griffin. Bucks are pretty new to this playoff success and I could see them struggling to play well in their first closeout spot. Not saying they won't win the game, but I like Detroit to keep this within single-digits. Bet the Pistons +12! 

20* BLAZERS\THUNDER NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Blazers +6 -109

My money is on the Blazers to cash in an easy cover in Game 4 against the Thunder. As you would expect, OKC came out with a purpose in Game 3 after losing both games in Portland. I don't know if they will be able to pull out the win, but I'm confident they will at least keep it close and cover the number. BET THE BLAZERS +6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Pistons +8½ -105

My money is on the Pistons to cash in an easy cover here as a near double-digit dog against the Bucks. Milwaukee absolutely dominated the first two games in this series at home and to no surprise with Detroit playing without one of their best players in Blake Griffin. While Griffin is doubtful to suit up for Game 3, I do think the home court edge and lack of interest by Milwaukee will be enough to allow the Bucks to hang around and at least cover. Bet Milwaukee +8.5! 

20* CELTICS/PACERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pacers -3 -105

My money is on the Pacers to cash in a easy win and cover here as a small home favorite. Indiana had their chances in both Game 1 and Game 2, but ended up losing both. I'm confident the Pacers will regroup and find a way to win Game 3 at home. Indiana has gone 15-4 ATS last 19 at home after losing 3 of 4. Bet the Pacers -3! 

20* 76ERS/NETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nets +3 -105

My money is on Brooklyn to cover the small number at home against the 76ers in Game 3. The Nets have shown they can hang with Philadelphia and if not for a ridiculous 3rd quarter, they might be up 2-0. Either way, the atmosphere is going to be electric at the Barclays Center and this 76ers team is not nearly as strong on the road as they are at home. Bet the Nets +3

20* PISTONS/BUCKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bucks -14½ -109

My money is on the Bucks to cash in another easy win and cover here against the Pistons. Milwaukee won Game 1 by 35 and it could have been worse. No Bucks starter played more than 25 minutes. I just think the last few teams in the East aren't very good and the Pistons have no shot without the likes of Blake Griffin. The only concern with the Bucks is a letdown after such an easy win, but I think because Milwaukee is so new to this playoff thing they are going to show up ready to go. Bet the Bucks -14.5! 

20* THUNDER/BLAZERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Thunder +2 -108

My money is on the Thunder to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Blazers. I think Portland came out with something to prove in Game 1 and really played inspired. It was enough to get them the win, but they barely squeaked it out and that was with OKC's two stars, Westbrook and George not having their best games and Lillard playing really well. Thunder are the better team and will win this one. Bet OKC +2!

20* CLIPPERS/WOLVES NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors -14 -105

My money is on the Warriors to cash in an easy win and cover here. I think people got use to the Golden State team that basically was sleep-walking through the regular-season. They didn't even play close to their best and won Game 1 by 17 points. Clippers have made this personal and there's a ton of incentive for Golden State to get this series over with as quickly as possible, knowing they more than likely will be facing the Rockets in Round 2. Bet the Warriors -14! 

20* THUNDER/BLAZERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Blazers -3 -115

My money is on the Blazers to cash in an easy win and cover at home in Game 1 of their series against the Thunder. I just think we are getting a great price here, as everyone seems to be picking OKC to win the series. Bet the Blazers -3! 

20* CLIPPERS/WARRIORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors -12½ -109

My money is on the Warriors to cash in an easy win and cover here as a big home favorite against the Clippers. You have to tip your hat to LAC for making it this far, but unfortunately for them they are going up against the best team in the league. Golden State coasted through the regular-season and still finished with the best record in the west. There will be no looking ahead or taking teams lightly, as this team is on a mission to get that elusive 3-peat. It starts with a statement win at home in Game 1 against LA. Bet the Warriors -12.5! 

20* HEAT/NETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nets -3½ -109

My money is on Brooklyn to cash in an easy win and cover here as a small home favorite. Miami has been eliminated from playoff contention. I just don't think the Heat will have any interest here in playing hard, as they have to be feeling pretty sorry for themselves for missing the playoffs. This is going to be more about how many points can they get Wade at in his final game. Bet the Nets -3.5! 

20* HORNETS/CAVS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hornets -7½ -109

My money is on the Hornets to cash in an easy win and cover here at Cleveland. Not only do the Hornets need to win here to keep their slim playoff hopes alive, but the Cavs would be better off losing, as they are tied with the Suns for the 3rd worse record in the league. Clearly tanking has been on the mind of Cleveland, as they have lost 9 straight and are resting Kevin Love in the final game of the season. Bet the Hornets -7.5! 

20* TEXAS TECH/VIRGINIA CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Texas Tech vs Virginia over 118 -110

My money is on the OVER in Monday's National Championship Game between the Red Raiders and Cavaliers. Everyone knows how good these two teams are on the defensive side of the ball. Both just went UNDER the total in their Final Four matchup. The books know this will likely be a rare time when the UNDER gets a lot of action and they have set the line accordingly. Too much value here to pass up on the OVER, as this should at least get into 120s. Bet the OVER 118! 

20* SPURS/CAVS WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Spurs -8½ -108

My money is on the Spurs to cash in an easy win and cover here as a near double-digit road favorite against the Cavs. No need to talk about the gap in talent between these two teams. Key here is motivation. Spurs need to win out and hope OKC loses one more time to avoid staying in the No. 8 spot and having to face the Warriors in the first round of the playoffs. Whether or not that happens, they should dominate this game. Bet the Spurs -8.5! 

20* AUBURN/VIRGINIA FINAL 4 WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Virginia -5 -110

My money is on Virginia to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Tigers. It's been quite a run for Auburn getting to this point, but I just think the loss of Okeke will be too much for them to overcome. Cavaliers really put a lot of pressure on themselves to get to the Final 4 after what happened last year. They should be as relaxed as they have been. I just think they take Auburn completely out of their comfort zone in this one, as they aren't going give the Tigers easy looks from deep and don't turn the ball over. Bet Virginia -5! 

20* NETS/BUCKS WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nets +8½ -110

My money is on the Nets to cash in an easy winner here as a big road dog against the Bucks. This is pretty simple folks. Milwaukee has nothing at all to play for. They have the top seed clinched. Brooklyn is tied for 7th, but just 1-game from being out of the playoff picture completely. Bet the Nets +8.5! 

20* HAWKS/MAGIC NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Magic -8½ -105

My money is on Orlando to cash in an easy win and cover here as a 8.5-point home favorite against the Hawks. Atlanta will be without two key pieces here in Kent Bazemore and Kevin Huerter, which I think is going to prevent them from making a game of this. Orlando absolutely has to have this one. Magic are tied with the Nets for the 7th/8th spot in the east and just 1/2-game ahead of the Heat. Orlando will deliver in this spot. Bet the Magic -8.5! 

20* KNICKS/MAGIC NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Knicks +12½ -100

My money is on the Knicks to cash in an easy win here as a double-digit dog against the Magic. Orlando is fighting for the 8th and final playoff spot in the east. The public is aware of this and will be looking to back them against a bad team like the Knicks, but the books are ahead of the curve and have inflated this number to where the value is on the other side. Bet the Knicks +12.5! 

20* PISTONS/PACERS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pistons +6 -109

My money is on the Pistons to cash in an easy cover here on the road against the Pacers. Detroit isn't expected to have Blake Griffin and I think it has them undervalued here. Pistons won their last game at home against Portland without Griffin and did so despite starting the game missing their first 13 shots and going 5+ minutes before scoring a single point. Indiana has lost 3 straight and 7 of their last 8 overall. Bet the Pistons +6!
