Chicago Bulls vs. New York Knicks
Free Pick: Under 201 points (December 22nd 2009 – Jimmy Boyd)
The Knicks have played to the Under in 4 straight and 6 of their last 7 as they have failed to break the century mark in their last 4 games. Odds makers have failed to adjust their lines to the slower pace that New York has been playing. We saw these two teams combine for just 187 points in Chicago last week and I expect them to stay under 200 total points tonight. The Under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in New York and 4-0 in the last 4 meetings period. It is also worth noting that Chicago is even 8-0 Under versus terrible defensive teams allowing a shooting percentage of 48% or better over the last 2 seasons. The average combined total score in these games is just 195.3. Bet the Under.

Golden State Warriors vs. Memphis Grizzlies
Free Pick: Over 219 points (December 22nd 2009 – Jeff Alexander
Bottom Line: Golden State is rested and that has been a solid Overs situation. In fact, Golden State is 23-11 Over when playing 4 or less games in 10 days over the last 3 seasons. The average score in these spots has totaled 224 points. Golden State is also 18-4 Over after failing to cover the spread in 3 or more consecutive games over the last 3 seasons. The average score in these spots has totaled 229.1 points. We’ll take the Over for 1 Unit tonight.
