Here are the Champ NBA system bets for Thursday February 21:
Portland {A} Bet - This bet is only official if Damian Lillard plays. He is currently listed as: "questionable with a sprained left ankle for Thursday's game against the Nets. This is the first we've heard of the injury so we're guessing he'll play, but there are no guarantees. We should know more about his status on Thursday afternoon."
Phoenix {A} Bet - Unofficial series because they have the NBA's worst road record.

HOUSTON -3
HOUSTON @ L.A. LAKERS | 2/21 | 10:30 PM EST
10:00 AM
The Rockets get back Clint Capela after 15 games away, and that makes all the difference here. Houston was out-rebounded in 13 of those games. When the Rockets win the boards battle, they're 19-3, when they don't they're 14-21. The Lakers are statistically a solid rebounding team, but that's mostly due to extra shooting attempts by the opponent -- only the Kings allow more offensive boards. LeBron has indicated he'll get into "playoff mode" earlier than usual, but there are matchup issues all over the floor. The Rockets can sneak out of L.A. with a win.

MIAMI +6.5
MIAMI @ PHILADELPHIA | 2/21 | 7:00 PM EST
9:52 AM
Joel Embiid and his 27 points and 13.5 rebounds per game won't be on the court Thursday, and the Sixers are 1-3 on the season when that's the case. Embiid had 35 and 18 in a 10-point win over Miami earlier this season. But that he's not out there gives the Heat some level of confidence. The Heat have been far more successful on the road than at home, and that includes a 17-11 ATS record, third-best in the NBA. Miami can keep it close.
48-34-1 IN LAST 83 NBA ATS PICKS | +1041

MILWAUKEE -5.5
BOSTON @ MILWAUKEE | 2/21 | 8:00 PM EST
9:44 AM
Not only does Milwaukee have the best record in the NBA, it's the best team against the spread in the NBA. That's because the Bucks have an average scoring differential of 9.8 points, by far the best in the league. The Bucks are also 30-17 with rest between games -- coming out of the All-Star break provided the ultimate rest. Boston is among the bottom-five in road covers. The Celtics' strong depth may be in trouble without Aron Baynes and possible Gordon Hayward. Meanwhile, Nikola Mirotic is expected to make his Bucks debut.

Philly has covered four straight in the series, but I like the way the Heat are playing and they should be competitive here going up against a Sixers team missing Joel Embiid. Miami -- which is above .500 on the road -- should get a lift from the return of Goran Dragic. Grab the points.
