Golden State Warriors vs. Orlando Magic (NBA) - 7:00 PM EST
Premium Pick: Total: 194.0/-103 Over
*3 Star NBA Total Domination* The Golden State Warriors are coming off a big win over the Miami Heat in their last game. Golden State may be a little more sloppy in this one, and if they are I think that will show up on the defensive end. Both of these teams are in the top ten in the NBA in pace, so there should be plenty of shot opportunities for both teams in this one. These teams reached 196 in their game a couple weeks ago despite neither team shooting it particularly great or getting to the line very much. The over is 10-3-1 in Golden State's last 14 against the East. Take the over.
Sacramento Kings vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (NBA) - 8:00 PM EST
Premium Pick: Point Spread: -13.0/-102 Oklahoma City Thunder
*3 Star NBA ATS Blowout* The Oklahoma City Thunder aren't strangers to blowout wins at home. Last game they appeared to take a game off and it almost cost them at home against the lowly Hornets. Sacramento comes to town playing some bad basketball, and the Thunder match up very well against the Kings. Look for Oklahoma City to jump on them early and coast to a big win here. The Thunder have won by more than 20 points at home twice in the past two weeks. OKC is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 on a single day of rest. The Kings are 7-18-1 ATS following a day of rest. Take the Thunder.
Dallas Mavericks vs. Toronto Raptors (NBA) - 7:00 PM EST
Premium Pick: Point Spread: -5.5/-105 Dallas Mavericks
*3 Star TGIF NBA Bookie SMASHER* The Dallas Mavericks have quietly been covering the number very consistently of late. The Mavericks are getting a great start to the season out of O.J. Mayo. Mayo is absolutely lighting it up so far this year. He is averaging 20.9 points per game, and he is shooting better than 50% from three-point range. Toronto will be without Bargnani and Lowry in this one. The Raptors weren't good to start with, and losing their two best play makers will hurt them a lot. The Mavericks are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 overall. They are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 on a day of rest. The Raptors are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 against the Western Conference. Take Dallas.
Memphis -104 over DENVER
The Nuggets return home from a tough five-game trip to play perhaps the most physically punishing team in the NBA. The Nuggets have also been very inconsistent this season with and 11-12 record and not winning two games in a row since Nov 23-25.
The Grizzlies have lost two straight, suggesting all focus will be on this one. They’re first in the NBA in points allowed and rank high in every other key category as well. In a favorable spot, look for the Grizz to get back to their winning ways against a tired host.

804 TOR 5.5(-110) bodog vs 803 DAL double-dime bet
Analysis: PLAY: TORONTO
RATING: DOUBLE DIME PLAY ’
This is a spot I love in the NBA as the public will want to jump on Dallas as they will expect them to bounce back following their 117-115 loss in Boston in Double OT on Wednesday. In fact in their last 3 games Dallas has scored 116,119 and 115. They are facing a Toronto team with just 4 wins on the season and losers of 6 in a row. They just finished a 5 game road trip on the West Coast and returned home on Wednesday and lost to Brooklyn. This is the second game back at home and as we have done so many times I fade the team returning home in their first game then back them in the second game at home which is tonight. Dallas is laying too many points as a road favorite as it's true they score but they also give up a ton of points as they have given up 100 or more in 8 of the last 11 games. It must also be noted that Dallas has to play again tomorrow night in Minnesota which will be their 6th road game in 7 games and they will be playing their 3rd game in 4 days and played a double OT game in their last game. This will be their 6th different city in 10 days. Toronto takes this to the limit and don't be surprised if they pull off the Upset. I have Toronto winning by 1-3 points so grab the points.
