Friday rankings & plays...

2 plays:

I am going to take the Denver Nuggets moneyline as they have lost 4 of 5 and are too good a team to keep losing like this and they are fighting yet again to reach .500 tonight which is always a good motivational factor...Indy has won 4 of 5, but CHI was the only team currently with a winning record they have beaten during this stretch and the Bulls are 9-8...

I am also going to take a shot with the HOU/SA Over the 212 and I already talked about this game down below in my write-up as I edited these 2 plays in here up top at 5:23 p.m. EST...

GL...

Sides:

1) Den, 2) SA, 3) Char, 4) Tor, 5) NO, 6) Was, 7) Sac, 8) LAL, 9) Cle, 10) GS, 11) Det, 12) Phi

Totals:

1) SA ov, 2) Det un, 3) Char ov, 4) Sac un, 5) NO un, 6) LAL ov, 7) Tor ov, 8) Was ov, 9) Den ov, 10) GS un, 11) Phi ov, 12) Cle un

Not crazy about too many sides tonight, but am thinking about a play on DEN despite a chart-play to fade them here...I do like my top 8 totals though...

Rockets/Spurs reminds me of the Lakers/Rockets match-up from Tuesday of this week as we had the top 2 teams in the league in PACE on Tuesday facing off and tonight HOU is still #1 and the Spurs are #5 in PACE...The Houston starters were the reason that game stayed Under by half-a-point or 2 1/2 points on the closing line as the Rockets starters shot 30% for the game and Harden going 3-for-19 didn't help and both teams shot poorly from the charity stripe...I expect the HOU starters to shoot better tonight which should get this Over...

The Bulls have 7 straight Unders and Detroit had 4 straight Unders before a fluky 2H against GS last time out got an Over from what looked like a cakewalk Under at the half...
