Minnesota Timberwolves at Toronto Raptors

Minnesota does not ordinarily force a lot of turnovers but forced 20-plus last night to key its home win over Utah. Doubt it will have such defensive success on the road versus the Raptors. Toronto is 8-3 S/U and ATS at home versus Minnesota, has won and covered four-of-five and three in a row at home. It is also 44-29 ATS as a favorite over the last 2 seasons and 23-8 ATS in February games over the last 3 seasons.

Taking Toronto!
Good luck!


Orlando Magic at Philadelphia

This is the third meeting between these teams this month. The first two both finished above the total. I'm expecting a somewhat lower-scoring contest this evening though. Since the loss to the Magic to begin the month, the 76ers have been holding opponents to an average of a mere 84.7 points during their past six home games, with none of the last five opponents reaching 90 points. Not surprisingly, four of those five games stayed below the number. They'll face a Magic team which has held five of its last six opponents to double-digits, with four of those games staying beneath the total.

Yes, Orlando road games have averaged 206 points on the season. Philadelphia home games have averaged just 188 though and 14 of the last 19 games here have finished with 201 combined points or less. Note that this evening's over/under line is a full six points higher than it was for the 02/01 meeting here, giving us solid line value. Look for the final score to be lower than expected with the "under" improving to 5-2 when the 76ers have played with three or more day's rest in between games and 39-30-1 the last 70 times they faced a team which scores 99 or more points per game.


Taking UNDER 202!
Good luck!


Denver Nuggets at Seattle SuperSonics

The Nuggets have won two straight and four of the last five meetings against the lowly SuperSonics, who have dropped five of its last seven games. However, The Nuggets are currently playing below par. Denver has lost three straight and nine of its last 13 games on the road, a woeful 11-16 on the road this season. Go with Seattle tonight at KeyArena to cover the spread in a close battle. The Sonics have covered the spread in four of their last five games.

Taking Seattle (+8.5)!
Good luck!
