1 Unit FREE PLAY on Indiana Pacers +3
The Indiana Pacers had yesterday off after upsetting the Golden State Warriors 104-95 on Tuesday in the second of a back-to-back. They didn't have Victor Oladipo in that game, and now Oladipo has been traded to Houston, so I'm not too concerned with it. More concerning is the terrible spot the Portland Trail Blazers are in now. They will be playing for a second consecutive day after a big comeback 132-126 win at Sacramento last night. That shootout will have taken a lot out of them, especially with Damian Lillard playing 42 minutes through an ankle injury and Jusuf Nurkic playing 30 minutes through a quad injury. The spot really favors the Pacers tonight. The Pacers are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games against a team with a winning record. The Blazers are 1-6 ATS in their last seven home games. Give me the Pacers.

NCAA-B | Arizona vs Oregon State
Play on: OVER 140½ -110

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take Over in Arizona @ Oregon State (11p.m., Thursday, January 14 FS1) Arizona has not been solid on defense and is coming off two straight home losses against the LA based schools. The Wildcats have up an average of 84 points per game last week and if the Beavers come close to that number on Thursday this game should easily go over the posted total.

Best Bets, Score Predictions for Thursday Jan. 14
Matt Blunt

Columbus Blue Jackets vs. Nashville Predators

Money-Line Odds: Columbus +104; Nashville -120
Total (Over-Under): 5.5

Score Prediction: Nashville 4 Columbus 2
Best Bet: Predators ML

It appears I'm not starting nearly as high on Columbus or possibly as low on Nashville as the market suggests for this game, as the Predators are a team I do believe can be more of a player in the Central Division than their +800 price tag suggests.

The Blue Jackets are right behind them at +900, but I would have had Nashville be listed as a slightly bigger favorite than this.

The Predators have won six of the past eight meetings between the two clubs for what that's worth, but I view this as a short price on Nashville regardless. That info definitely doesn't hurt that position.


San Jose Sharks vs. Arizona Coyotes

Money-Line Odds: San Jose +108; Arizona -125
Total (Over-Under): 5.5

Score Prediction: San Jose 3 Arizona 2

Best Bet: Sharks ML

Maybe it's starting to show up as a theme, but San Jose is another team I'm not in a hurry to completely give up on this season, as I'm not sure they will be as bad as expected in the West.

It will be an uphill climb to compete for a playoff spot for the Sharks for sure, but they've been where Arizona is trying to build up too, and understand what type of team will be coming for them.

Also, an older team like the Sharks would do itself a great help by starting out hot and piling together wins while they are fresh and haven't been bogged down by some brutal travel or back-to-back spots.

Arizona is another one of those teams that I still prefer to treat as a “prove it to me first” team, similar to my thoughts on Montreal yesterday. These are the games the Coyotes are supposed to win if they want to make that next leap, but sight unseen, the prove it first idea is worthy of a fade.
