Sac-Town in Tuesday Totals Play

The Kings have won consecutive games and will try for three in a row, something they have not been able to accomplish since winning four straight Nov. 25 –Dec. 2. Sacramento is again having a miserable season at 20-39, being outscored by 4.4 points per game and are 26th in scoring defense at 105.4 points per game. Among the few bright spots has been rookie Tyreke Evans (he of the well placed elbow) for the Kings, who are horrifying 5-25 on the road (14-15-1 ATS) this season.

Sacramento wants to build a product like Oklahoma City (35-23 SU & ATS), who is one of the up and coming teams in the NBA, led by Kevin Durant. The Thunder has also won two consecutive games, each in blowout fashion (17 and 20 points) and has emerged victorious in 11 of last 13 contests.

“… We have that mindset of trying to be guys that go out and get after it and have that competitive spirit for 48 minutes straight,” Durant said. “That’s our brand of basketball here in Oklahoma City, and that’s how it’s going to be for a long time.”

Bookmaker.com has Oklahoma City as 10-point favorites with total of 202.5. Pay particular attention to the total for this reason.

Dreadful road teams, being outscored by three or more points a game, against opponent after two straight wins by 10 points or more, with a total in the range of 200 to 209.5, are 37-11 OVER the last 14 years.

In this situation, the average total score is 212.6 points and this super situation has really been heating up with 17-3 record the previous three seasons. Sacramento is 8-3 OVER as an underdog, while OKC is 8-3 OVER after scoring 100 or more points. Consider this NBA system tonight.

The NBA is TOTALLY Cool on Tuesday

Tonight in professional basketball, the focus is on checking out the latest trend totals for a Tuesday evening. More than few sharp bettors will tell whoever is listening that the best way to beat the NBA is to play totals, with the numbers often more difficult to beat on side action. Here are totals aspects to consider tonight.

Less than two weeks ago, who didn’t want to play the Minnesota Timberwolves, since a relatively easy victory awaited any team that put forth the effort. Like grandma using the “clapper”, the T-Wolves have taken on juggernaut status like turning on a light switch. Minnesota’s unlikely uprising has coincided with putting the ball in the basket, shooting 50 percent or better in four consecutive games in which they have won and covered. The Timberwolves are on a 6-1 OVER run and as they head to Philadelphia and Minny is 16-9 OVER on the road this season. Bookmaker.com is producing a 205.5 figure on this matchup and Minnesota is 10-2 OVER in a road game where the total is 200 to 209.5 this season.

Any game Indiana is involved in just has the feel of an Over. The Pacers are 25th in points allowed at 104 per game and are average offensive at 99.1 PPG. Oddsmakers have had a good read on Indiana most of the season in the totals category, since they are 29-21-1 UNDER for the year. The Pacers are a 1.5-point home favorite against Chicago tonight with total of 203.5 and are 10-2 UNDER as a home favorite of six points or less this season. This Central Division contest also shows the Bulls leaning one way, as they are is 8-1 UNDER when the total is greater than or equal to 200 this campaign.


Those trying to sell Sacramento and New York as a defensive conflict are laying out the galimatias on sports bettors. The total is 212.5, which is the lowest in three previous meetings between these teams, all that went Under the number. Even with this change of events, eight of the last dozen games between these mediocre teams have gone OVER and the Knicks are 13-3 OVER in February games since last year. However, maybe those setting the numbers know something. The Kings are on a three-game Eastern swing, having lost six in a row and are 11-1 UNDER after failing to cover the spread in two or more consecutive games. New York allowed 74 points in the first half of last contest to the Cavaliers, but came back to cover in loss at Cleveland. The Knickerbockers are 10-1 UNDER after trailing in their previous game by 20 or more points at the half over the last three seasons. Maybe this East vs West affair isn’t as obvious as it looks.

The Utah Jazz have won eight in a row and 12 of 13 to move within two games of division leading Denver. Utah’s offense has been incredibly effective in this stretch, averaging 110.7 points per game and they are 9-4 OVER. The Jazz defeated Denver 116-106 and is 13-4 OVER in road games after scoring 110 points or more. The Clippers can’t possibly keep up with Utah in high scoring tilt and are 17-7 UNDER at the Staples Center this season. Los Angeles lost at Utah in their third game of the season by 13 points and is 9-1 UNDER in home games revenging a road loss vs. opponent of 10 points or more this season. Oddsmakers opened this encounter at 198.5 and NBA totals players have hit it hard, raising it three points.

Last Sunday of College Basketball

It was a crummy day on Saturday and the Left Coast Connection consensus plays have been nothing to brag about, thus are getting bumped. Today’s Free Play is courtesy of Kendall who has a nice run going in the NBA. Found a perfect trend in hockey today from the Windy City that is worth looking into. The Best System around is similar to yesterday, though 81.2 percent, asking a bad team to play well.

Free Basketball System-1) PLAY ON underdogs revenging a blowout loss vs opponent of 30 points or more, who are well rested team, playing only their second game in five days. This NBA system is 26-6 ATS, 81.2 percent and concerns me since Sacramento is the team that fits. Granted, this is the Suns fourth game and five days, but the Kings like any team going nowhere late in the season don’t need much of a reason not to play hard.

Free Hockey Trend -2) The Chicago Blackhawks are 11-0 against the money line in home games revenging a loss where opponent scored five or more goals over the last two seasons.

Free Basketball Selection -3) Kendall has nailed his last six NBA plays and likes Cleveland to continue winning.
