Sport/League: CBB
Date/Time: February 2, 2021 7PM EST
Play: Eastern Kentucky +2.0 (-110)
My math model favors Eastern Kentucky by 2.0 points in this game and the Colonels are 21-5-2 ATS in their last 28 games overall, including 9-2 ATS in their last eleven road games versus teams with a .601 or greater home record and 4-0 ATS in their last four roles as road underdogs. The road team has dominated this series, going 15-6 in the last 21 meetings and I expect that trend to continue tonight with an Eastern Kentucky squad that is 15-5-1 ATS in its last 21 games following a win, 15-3-1 ATS after covering the Vegas number and 18-7-1 ATS in conference clashes.
Optimism has permeated Eastern Kentucky's basketball program since the arrival of head coach A.W. Hamilton. Hamilton was named Ohio Valley Conference Coach of the Year in 2020 after leading the Colonels to a 12-6 conference mark, tying the program's record for conference wins. The Colonels also have an identity under Hamilton - a team that will play fast and press for 40 minutes. Eastern Kentucky is 7th in the nation in scoring (84.2) and 1st in steals per game (12.1).
One of the keys to Eastern Kentucky's success this season has been 6-1 guard Cooper Robb, a Charlotte transfer who received an NCAA waiver to play in 2020-21. Freshman Wendell Green, Jr., a three-star prospect according to Rivals, is third on the team in scoring (13.2 ppg) and is joined in the backcourt by Curt Lewis, who redshirted last year after being a finalist for Kentucky's Mr. Basketball in 2018.

553 LA Clippers at Brooklyn
Two strong and talented offensive teams do battle Tuesday in Brooklyn. The problem for the Nets is that only one of these teams play defense, and that's the underdog. The Clippers are currently the much more complete team, as the Nets defense has as expected been a no show since the big trade. In the NBA just about everyone knows how to score, it's toughness on the defensive end that is lacking in Brooklyn.

Play: 1H Total Over 122.0 (-110)
Not sure how much second half gas depth shy Portland will have in the tank so going the early route here in what figures to be a defenseless track meet. Blazers seven man rotation wasn't especially taxed last night playing between 16:50-30:09 minutes mainly because HC Terry Stotts extended the rotation to nine by giving 9+ minutes to deep reserves Keljin Blevins & CJ Elleby. After a difficult offensive night for every Portland player other than Nasir Little who had a career high 30 points (rest of team was 28/86/32.5%) expect far better production against the non-existent Wizards defense. Washington more than happy to try and outscore opponents so this one should keep the scoreboard churning steadily from the opening tip. Will side here with what figures to be fresher Blazer 1H legs and rested Washington team to get “over” the 1H total.
Recommendation: Portland-Washington 1H OVER 122

Memphis Indiana OVER 222. Both of these teams have been playing to the over more and more. Its the last game of rd trip for Memphis and I don't see them holding Indiana to the 41% SA mustered last night. I think Indy makes a good effort tonight after a dud the last time out, and Memphis has been playing hapless Spurs L/2, will have to make more effort tonight.

Event: (557) Boston Celtics at (558) Golden State Warriors
Sport/League: NBA
Date/Time: February 2, 2021 10PM EST
Play: Golden State Warriors +2.5 (-110)
557 Boston Celtics at 558 Golden State Warriors +2.5, 222.5

A year ago almost to the day, the Boston Celtics hosted the Golden State Warriors following the tragic death of Kobi Bryant. The Celtics were 4th in the East, half a game behind Miami, and owned an 18-5 home mark on the season. The Warriors were last in the Western Conference and were 3-21 on the road while having defeated only the Orlando Magic in their last ten games.

A lot has changed in a year. The Celtics injury report in that game a year ago had Enes Kanter and Robert Williams ruled OUT and Jayson Tatum was on a minutes restriction. The Warriors were without Stephen Curry (hand) and Klay Thompson (ACL) and had just traded Willie Cauley-Stein to Dallas for a second-round pick.

Curry leads the Warriors who own one of the Top-5 benches (second rotations) in the league and the Celtics will be without arguably their best perimeter defender in guard Marcus Smart. The Play at Chase Center in Oakland on Tuesday night is backing the home dogs.
