Game: Charlotte vs. Richmond (12:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: Game Total UNDER 129 -110
Both Charlotte and Richmond will find their way into the post-season. The question is where? This game, and for the winner, those that follow will kill or enhance the resume of each, so this one becomes an important game for both. I expect both teams to bring a lot of intensity to the defensive end of the court. These teams also have something else in common as they tend to struggle offensively on a neutral court. Combined, they enter this game with a 13-4-1 UNDER mark when playing on a neutral court. They have pretty much mirrored those numbers in their last 13 meetings as the UNDER has prevailed to a 9-4 mark. Play this one UNDER the total.

3-Unit Play. Take #10 Tampa Bay (-1.25) over New York Islanders (7:35 pm, Thursday, March 14)
2-Unit Play. Take #5 Pittsburgh (-1.40) over Toronto (7 pm, Thursday, March 14)
9-2 Overall run as we have not lost back to back days in quite some time now. Nice call on Miss State +5.5 Outright over South Carolina in what was a very sharp call. We ended up winning both Basketball games outright as we had Memphis +6 over the Clippers Outright at Staples as well. Let's keep rolling today as we are 9-4 to start March Madness. Just $175 for the rest of the Season.
4-Unit Play. #743. Take Baylor +2.5 over Oklahoma State (Thursday @ 9:30pm est).
This is a good spot here for Baylor. Baylor needs this game to secure a spot in the NCAA Tourney and the fact that they play in the BIg12 still affords them opportunities with some big wins late in the season. Baylor has a lot of talent that tournament officials would love to showcase and this is a team that is exciting and travels well too. This team comes off a huge win over Kansas at home in what was a big win for a team that really showcased what they can do and beating one of the premier teams in the nation in Kansas by a wide margin at home. Now, they face an Oklahoma State team who they beat earlier this year by a score of 64-54 and though you would think that State had huge revenge going into the next game at home, they only beat Baylor in a revenge game 69-67 in overtime. Baylor's size and athleticism rivals anyone in the country and with State as the #15 ranked team in the country as just a 2 point favorite, with Baylor having revenge from an OT loss and this being a must win game for them, I like Baylor to play with great motivation on primetime this evening. Plus, this is a good public fade as around 65% backs Oklahoma State here on one of the last games on the board and I think Baylor is primed for an upset and a win here should seal their way into the tourney whereas a loss leaves it up in the air and out of their hands.

Nice winner on the Grizzlies +6 Outright over the Clippers. We are 2-1 this week with a 6* Winner. We went 4-3 last week. Let's go 3-1 for the week with a win today:
4-Unit Play. #702. Take Under 206 Dallas vs. San Antonio (Thursday @ 8:05pm est)
These two teams are more than familiar with each other. They are rivals. They have impeded each other from progressing in the playoffs. And, they have faced each other twice this year with the Spurs getting the best of Mark Cuban's team both times. Although it is very difficult to beat a team trice in a year, the Spurs do have the motivation after shockingly losing to Minnesota on the road after a big win at home against Oklahoma City. It was a let down if you will. Now, this team returns home to face a Mavericks team that is playing better and one who has won their last 4 straight. But, the Mavs do come off giving up 108 points in their last game which is a bit of a dissapointment for this team despite the win on the road at Milwaukee. Plus, the Spurs come off giving 107 points to the Timberwolves on the road after holding the Thunder to 93 points the day before. Whenever the Spurs give up over a 100 points in their prior game, they give up less than 100 their next game. For example, they gave up 136 at Portland, to give up 93 to OKC, giving up 102 to Sacramento to giving up 75 to Detroit at home (a game in which they had revenge) or giving up 107 to Golden State (in overtime) to giving up 87 to Phoenix in their next game. Look for the Mavs and the Spurs to both have incentives to play a defensive contest as this is a playoff type game for all intense purposes given the tight shift in the West with the playoff picture. The Under is 4-0 when the Mavericks face a team with a winning percentage of 60% or better and the Under is 9-3 for the Spurs when they are coming off a straight up loss.

Nice winner with Calgary 5-2 over Detroit yesterday. Let's pick up another winner today to make it back to back winners and put together a 5-2-1 run of late:4-Unit Play. #18. Take Dallas -110 over Anaheim (Thursday @ 8:35pm est).
Though Anaheim has revenge against Dallas, one has to think that Dallas poor performance losing 0-4 to Nashville has to be eating up at this team. Who knows, maybe this team was looking ahead to Anaheim and they got caught flat footed against Nashville who ran them out of the building basically. The fact that Dallas comes into this game favored says a lot about their chances today. Its not like Anaheim is not a hot team coming into this game having won their last 4 games. But, Dallas has beat this team the last 4 times they have hit the ice which is a bit of a surprise. Dallas has not been shutout in quite some time and I suspect given their poor performance in their last game and willingness to bounce-back, their past successes against Anaheim in general, I look for Dallas to do well here at home as they certainly have the motivation to do so.
