Pick: Timberwolves vs. Mavericks Over 184
The Dallas Mavericks are more of an up-tempo team now without Dirk Nowitzki on the floor. I look for this game to be fast-paced tonight between the Mavs and Minnesota Timberwolves in Dallas. The Timberwolves hvae been a solid offensive team this year, scoring 95.0 points/game. They are allowing 94.6 points/game, combining with their opponents for 189.6 points/game on average. As you can see, that number is over five points more than the posted total tonight, providing us with some nice line value here. Dallas will look to run more now that they don’t have to run their offense through Dirk, which forces them to play at a slower tempo when he’s on the floor. Dallas and Minnesota have combined to score 186 or more points in six of their last seven meetings. I fully expect this one to finish with 186-plus tonight as well. Take the OVER 184 points here. -Black Widow

Pick: Seton Hall -7
Notre Dame upset Syracuse at home Saturday, but it hasn’t been the same team on the road. In fact, it is 1-7 SU and ATS when playing away from home this season, losing those games by an average of 11.5 points. After back-to-back road games, Seton Hall will be happy to be home, where it is 10-0 SU and 6-1 ATS this season with an average winning margin of 14.5 points. The Pirates are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games as a home favorite of 7.0-12.5 points. We’ll take Seton Hall. -Jeff Alexander

Pick: Oklahoma State +9.5
Oklahoma State will be fired up for 2nd ranked Missouri, who finds itself in a letdown spot following Saturday’s big upset win at Baylor. I won’t hesitate to side with the home team here as the Tigers are 18-39 ATS in their last 57 road games, and the Cowboys are 34-16-2 ATS in their last 52 home games. Plus, the underdog is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings in this series. Take the points. -Dave Price

Basketball Picks for January 18th 2012: Bet Southern Illinois And The Timberwolves

Pick: Southern Illinois -2.5
Motivated by a blowout loss at Creighton last game, and further fueled by a 5-game losing streak to Drake, expect Southern Illinois to take care of business at home this evening. Drake hasn’t been the same team away from home where it is just 2-6 SU and ATS this season. In fact, the Bulldogs, who are coming off a 17-point win over Illinois State, are 0-7 ATS in road games following a win by 10 points or more over the last 2 seasons. Amazingly, Drake has lost by an average score of 85.4 to 56.6 in this situation. Southern Illinois has quietly won 3 of its last 4 at home with the lone loss during this stretch coming to a Wichita State, which is currently tied with Creighton atop the conference. It is worth noting that SIU covered the spread in each of those 4 home games. They’ve covered the number in 8 of their last 12 overall, and I like them to get come through again this evening.

Pick: Minnesota Timberwolves -8.5
Minnesota isn’t exactly a team I would normally lay 8.5-points on, but with the Pistons coming to town I can’t pass up, especially with Detroit playing the second of back-to-back road games. Detroit has won just one road game all season, and that came against a bad Charlotte team. In their six losses they Pistons have lost every game by at least 9 points. While Minnesota is just 3-5 at home, two of those wins came against the Mavericks and Spurs. Not only are the Pistons playing the second game of a back-to-back set on the road, but this is their fourth road and fifth game overall in the last week. Detroit comes in off two straight losses, and are a miserable 3-12 ATS in road games after 2 or more consecutive losses over the last 2 seasons. Not to mention the Pistons are just 1-10 ATS in their last 11 games as a road underdog of 5.0-10.5. Minnesota comes in of a 13-point win and cover against the Kings at home. The Timberwolves are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games overall, 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games following a ATS win, and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400. BET MINNESOTA!

NBA Picks for March 18th 2011: Wager On The Miami Heat And Minnesota Timberwolves

Pick: Miami Heat -4.5
The Heat just needed to see the Lakers to break five-game schneid and go on run. Actually played well against the Thunder but just couldn’t hit a shot as a team. The Hawks are what they are and this year they’re 12-21 ATS at the Phillip’s Center and 5-10 ATS in L15 vs winning records. The Heat dominate the non-marquee teams and are 8-1 L9 as a road fave of 3-6 points. Expecting sharp effort here as Heat will want to keep B2B losses to a minimum from here on out. Take the Heatles. The Mack Attack passed Thursday after Weds’ 3-0 sweep of the board. Friday is Payday in the NBA as DMACK loves the card and is locked and loaded with another 3-0 sweep. Value, bang for your buck, and the leaderboards and my Capper page show you the results. Put your bankroll to work while you watch March Madness! Just Get It, Bet It, Forget It, and Cash your Tickets!

Pick: Minnesota Timberwolves +14.5
Minnesota winds up a three-game road trip here and they are riding a respectable 2-3 SU, 3-2 ATS run, even losing to the Dallas Mavericks by 3 points. Star center Kevin Love returns to LA, where he played college ball for one-year at UCLA. The Lakers don’t always get up to play bad teams and are 7-20 ATS in their last 27 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. The Timberwolves are 8-2-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Los Angeles and the road team is 6-0 ATS in the last 6 meetings between these teams. Play the Timberwolves! You must be careful with parlays to maximize winning, knowing how and when to strike with two or three teams instead of one. Those factors come together on Friday’s NBA card, a perfect opportunity to parlay a trio of teams, including an Inner Circle release and an NBA Total of the Week. Turn a triple play on the books with Jim Feist’s 3-Team Super NBA Tripleheader Parlay — 3 games for the price of one — and be a winner 3 times tonight! (Handicapperspicks.com)

NBA Picks & College Basketball Picks for January 19th 2011

Pick: Minnesota Timberwolves +7
On Wednesday the Free NBA System Play is on the Minnesota Timber wolves. Game 723 at 10:35 eastern. The Wolves fit a tight system that plays on road dogs with 1 day of rest that scored 100 or more points as a road dog of 5 or more, vs an opponent that scored 100 or more as a home favorite of 4 or less and shot 45% or better from the field if the posted total is 190 or higher. This is the third game between the two with Minnesota taking the first one at home and the Clippers winning big here the last time these two hooked up. Look for a much closer game tonight as B.Griffin goes up against K.Love once again tonight. Take the Wolves plus the points. On Wednesday the lead play is the NBA Non Conference Total of the Month that’s backed with a 94% Totals system. I also have the NCAAB A-10 Conference double perfect Goy. Tuesday lone play cashed as the run is 7-0 the past 3 days. For the free Play take the Minnesota Timberwolves. -Rob Vinciletti

Pick: Raptors vs. Spurs Under 205.5
The Spurs have gotten back to their defensive ways and they have held six straight opponents under the century mark. Four of those opponents were held to 91 or fewer points and we think they can do a nice job against this Toronto team that has struggled to score points lately. The Raptors have averaged only 91 PPG in their last three contests and this team has really been struggling with injuries lately and that has been a major reason that they have lacked offensive cohesiveness. They have the same problem tonight as they have a long injury list and they should be shorthanded tonight We just think this total was posted a few points too high and if the Spurs go up big in this one they could slow the game down in the fourth quarter to protect the lead. -Doc’s Sports

Pick: Xavier -4.5
The Musketeers are on fire and I do not see St. Bonny even hanging tight here, even at home. When the Musketeers lose it is to good teams and they are simply blowing out weak oppoenents and I see no way that St Bonny can trade punches on offense in this one boys, a short and sweet writeup, but Xavier is going to shoot them out of the gym tonight, a short number for a better team who is explosive against a team who has recently struggled to score points. This line has jumped a full point for a reason, lay it. -Tony George

Pick: Iowa +20
Love playing against newly #1 ranked teams as they usually have big letdown. Last year this angle won ATS in 5 of 6 times we did it. Iowa also has covered last three game against OSU. Iowa actually matches up well with OSU and think they keep this around 10 pts comfortably in a safe cover. OSU wins but no way they cover 20. -Craig Trapp (Handicapperspicks.com)
