5-Unit Play. Take #715 Toledo +12 over VCU (Tuesday, November 18th at 6:00 p.m.)

I am the first person to say that VCU is a very good basketball team and that Shaka Smart has turned this program into a national contender. Smart’s teams are always fun to watch and they are loaded with athleticism. They apply full-court pressure from start to finish and ultimately wear out their competition forcing turnovers that lead to easy baskets. The key to beating VCU is having good guard play and a disciplined team. Toledo fits the bill.

This Rockets team returns a lot of talent from a team that was 27-7 last season and finished first in the MAC West. Their two starting guards are the leaders of the team and that is huge in this matchup. Juice Brown, an all MAC player last year, and Justin Drummond (both preseason All-Mac players) will have to play at their best tonight for Toledo to pull off the upset. Drummond is one of the best leaders in all of college basketball while Brown will go down as one of the school’s best all-time players. Toledo returns 6 of their top 7 scorers and they have the guard depth to handle the pressure of VCU.

This is a great matchup between two good teams. 14 points is way too many.

Take Toledo.

4-Unit Play. Take #713 Utah +4.5 over San Diego State (Tuesday, November 18th at 4:00 p.m.)

San Diego State is a top 25 team and rightfully so. Steve Fisher has done a wonderful job building them into a legitimate contender. However, Utah is the team that no one is talking about that could be a legitimate top 10 team by year’s end. Larry Krystowiak has done a remarkable rebuiltding job at Utah and this is his best team yet. He returns 4 starters and he added some key contributors in the offseason.

I really like the Utes in this matchup. They play team basketball and the addition of Jakob Poetl provides them with a terrific rebounder and scorer at the 5-spot. This is a complete basketball team and they will not be intimidated by the atmosphere. As a matter of fact, the home court advantage is the only advantage I see for SDSU in this matchup. If this game was played on a neutral court or at Utah, it would be a much bigger play for me.

Take Utah.

4-Unit Play. Take #726 Duke -7.5 over Michigan State (Tuesday, November 18th at 7:00 p.m.)

Is it possible for Michigan State to be a 7.5 point underdog to anyone in the country? The short answer is: yes. The Spartans will play good defense and they will rebound the basketball but they do not have the scoring prowess to hang with a loaded Duke squad. Izzo will have a tough time duplicating his recent success with this Spartans team. Having said that, keep an eye on them in the second half of the season.

This is one of the most talented Duke teams in recent memory. Coach K has done a great job putting this team together and an even better job of scheduling such a matchup early in the year to test his younger players. His Duke teams have beaten Izzo’s Spartans six straight times and I look for that streak to continue tonight. It will not shock me at all to see Michigan State start fast while the younger Duke players adjust to the atmosphere. However, Duke has too much firepower and they will pull away in the second half.

Take Duke.

Your Tuesday Winner...

Tuesday winner is a 75 Dime release on the Lakers and Atlanta Hawks to play Over the total. At 6:00 am Vegas time, the total for this game stands at 212 1/2 points.

Tuesday's Analysis


Big total here, but you have to play Over, as both the Lakers and the Hawks have shown early on that they like to play them high.


Los Angeles comes to the A-T-L having played 3 of their last 4 Over the total, and have played Overs in 7 of their 10 games played so far this year.


Atlanta has been right there with L.A., playing Overs in their last pair of games, and 6 of their 9 games overall this season.


Furthermore, the Lakers have played ALL 4 of their roadies Over the total, while the Hawks have landed Over in 3 of their 4 games at Philips Arena.


Series numbers show both meeting last year playing Over the total. Throw in 5 of 8 between the teams overall Over, and 3 of the last 4 in Atlanta landing Over the total, and I think the logical choice here is to play it Over and cheer on some serious offense tonight between Los Angeles and Atlanta.

Complimentary NHL Pick for November 18th, 2014

Game: Pittsburgh Penguins @ Montreal Canadiens
Time: Tuesday 11/18 7:35 PM Eastern
Pick: Pittsburgh -120 (moneyline) at Bovada

The Pittsburgh Penguins are making a case that they are the team to beat this season in the NHL. Pittsburgh has had a strong team for quite a few years, and they have shown the propensity to get hot and stay hot, and tend to go on extensive runs when they do. They are on one right now, and aside from a hiccup in New York against the Rangers, the Pens have been flawless in their other nine games surrounding the loss. Montreal has played well in posting a 14-4-1 mark on the season, and this could be a preview of the Eastern Conference Finals. The Canadiens have won six straight of their own, allowing 1 goal or less in five of them. A sure sign of trouble for Montreal is the fact that the Penguins are 61-24 in their last 85 games after allowing 2 or fewer goals in their prvious game as well as 76-36 in their last 112 following a win. Take the hot road team Pittsburgh.
