DIVISIONAL RD. TOTAL OF THE YEAR! *80% RECORD
Pick: Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs New Orleans Saints Under 52 (-105)
Analysis:
I'm playing on TB/NO UNDER the total. Brady vs. Brees = Shootout. Right? Not tonight, in my opinion. Sure, everyone is excited about the showdown between the two future hall-of-famers. With all that excitement, we're working with a higher O/U line than we were for the two regular season meetings. With all due respect to Brees and Brady, I feel that the high number is providing excellent value. These defenses are both really good. Remember, these teams combined for just 41 points (38-3!) last meeting. Remember, the O/U line was 48 for the game here, at New Orleans. Remember, that the Saints defensive line has been all over Brady in the two reg. season meetings. Remember, five of Brady's 12 INT's as a Buccaneer, have come against this NO team. Tampa coach Arians acknowledged: "We've got to block them better." I expect that to lead to a slightly more conservative game plan than normal, as the Bucs try to protect their star QB. While Brees runs the show, the Saints also really rely on Kamara and the running game. Yet, the Bucs were the best team in the league at stopping the run. The Saints were fourth best in that area. The Bucs were also fourth best in terms of sacking the opposing QB. NO also ranked in the top 10 (8th) in that category. Both defenses were right near the top of the league, in terms of interceptions, too. In fact, the Saints tied for first with 18 while the Bucs had 15. Again, these defenses are better than some seem to realize. I look for the final score to prove lower than many will be expecting.
TAMPA BAY @ NEW ORLEANS | 01/17 | 6:40 PM EST
NEW ORLEANS -3
ANALYSIS: The Saints were the last team to beat an opponent three times in one season. They did it in 2017 against the Panthers. While I expect the Bucs to not turn this game into the turnoverfest it was during the teams' second matchup, I don't expect them to gain much traction offensively against a stout Saints defense. Lay the points with New Orleans.

INDIANA @ L.A. CLIPPERS | 01/17 | 10:00 PM EST
INDIANA +5.5
ANALYSIS: Since Miles Turner was drafted in 2015, Indiana is 7-0 ATS as an underdog after a win as a dog in which his plus/minus was at least three points worse than the team's. Also, since Justin Holiday joined the Pacers in 2019, they are 6-0 ATS on the road after any game in which he shot better than 60 percent, winning every game straight up. Finally, since last February, the Pacers are 8-0 ATS following any game in which Domantas Sabonis has a plus/minus at least four points worse than the team's, winning every contest straight up. Grab the points.

NEW ORLEANS @ SACRAMENTO | 01/17 | 9:00 PM EST
NEW ORLEANS -2.5
ANALYSIS: The Pelicans are 19-0 ATS (+10.08 ppg) following a double-digits road loss in an away game in which they're facing a team with an assist-to-turnover ratio greater than 1.50 and they are not getting more than three points. New Orleans also is 7-0 ATS (+7.07 ppg) as a favorite after a double-digit road loss in which they had 20-plus turnovers. Sacramento also is coming off a double-digit loss, but the Kings are 0-12 ATS (-12.38 ppg) at home following a double-digit loss as home underdogs in which their opponent shot 50 percent or better from beyond the arc with at least 10 attempts. We are on the Pelicans.
TAMPA BAY @ NEW ORLEANS | 01/17 | 6:40 PM EST
TAMPA BAY +3
ANALYSIS: The Buccaneers' offense has been on fire since the bye, and they would have put up more points last week against a tough Washington defense if not for Chris Godwin's uncharacteristic drops. It's hard for any defense, even one as good as the Saints', to contain Mike Evans, Antonio Brown and Godwin. Over the past five weeks, the Bucs have averaged an NFL-best 6.9 yards per play. Tampa isn't going to get embarrassed by the Saints again. Take the points in what should be a very tight game.

FRESNO ST. @ NEVADA | 01/17 | 4:00 PM EST
NEVADA -7
ANALYSIS: These teams played each other on this same floor Friday, the Wolf Pack winning 73-57. I don't think the spread has adjusted enough. Nevada dominated the boards (37-26) and got great looks, leading to 51.9 percent shooting from the field. Look for Fresno State to fall to 4-17-1 ATS in its last 22 games versus winning teams.

ANALYSIS: Memphis hasn't played since Dec. 29 when it beat South Florida by one. The game before that, Memphis lost at home by seven to this same Tulsa team. The Golden Hurricane have won three of four meetings since Penny Hardaway took over the Tigers; that includes an 80-40 drubbing at Tulsa last season. Play the home dog.

NEW YORK @ BOSTON | 01/17 | 1:00 PM EST
BOSTON -7.5
ANALYSIS: Boston has won five straight and welcomes a Knicks team that's lost five in a row SU and ATS. The Knicks went all-out to win in Cleveland on Friday, with Julius Randle playing 38 minutes and Reggie Bullock playing 31 in his first game back from injury. Randle shot 11 of 20, but this is a much tougher matchup. Back Boston to cover its fifth straight.

IOWA @ NORTHWESTERN | 01/17 | 12:00 PM EST
IOWA -9.5
ANALYSIS: The Wildcats have lost four straight since a 1-point win over Ohio State, all the defeats coming by at least 10 points. Iowa has won four in a row, including an 87-72 home victory over the Wildcats on Dec. 30. During the streak, Jordan Bohannon is 19 of 30 from 3-point range. Look for the favorite to improve to 7-2 ATS in the past nine meetings.

INDIANA +5.5
The Pacers are going to be playing short-handed as an MRI revealed that the newly acquired Caris LeVert has a small mass on his left kidney. Indiana is used to playing with a limited depth chart, though, and has lost by more than five points only once this season. The Pacers are 4-1 ATS on the road, including 3-0 ATS as road underdogs. Meanwhile, the Clippers are just 2-4 ATS at home. Expect Indiana to keep this close.
