TCU Horned Frogs @ Indiana University Hoosiers
3 units TCU Horned Frogs +1 (Play of the Day)TCU Indiana blows. For me, this game comes down to who is the flat out better team and I believe in this case it is TCU. Remember, TCU has beat the likes of Colorado on the road, SMU and Wichita State as well. Indiana has beat the likes of Cornell, a division II team by a bucket and INDPU by 3 points. TCU has a solid crop of 3 players including Buljan, Lancon and Ruzgas. The bottom line, I expect TCU and their trio of scorers along with a sound defense to get it done here. Indiana has been decimated by the departure of their head coach from last year as they simply do not have a sound talent level to compete as it is utterly obvious this year as the Horned Frogs are 4-1 ATS over their last 5 road games while Indiana is 1-4 ATS following an ATS cover. This line is low for a reason, I expect TCU to win this game outright.

Milwaukee is the POD Not TCU
Milwaukee (POD)
The spread for this game is not out yet, but you have to give a lot of credit to these Warriors. They went on the road to win at OKC without Corey Maggattee or Stephen Jackson with just their young guys. And frankly, they got it done quite easy as I was on the other side. But, Milwaukee is 15-7 ATS, in fact, they are the second best ATS covers in the NBA this year. GS had also lost 9 straight games before winning against OKC on the road. Milwaukee has also done very well in avoiding back to back ATS losses. With or without Maggatee, I would not be surprised to see the Bucks do well today coming off a bounce-back as they likely win this game outright regardless what the line is (I write this write-up prior the line being out the night before). Look, the bottom line here is we are taking the better team in the Bucks on a bounce-back against a Warrior team that comes off a rare win. I'll take the more veteran Bucks who are one of the best ATS teams in the League this year (in fact, second best), compared to the very young GS team that will be bothered by the size of Yi, Villanueva, Jefferson, Bogut and the shooting of Redd.
Hawks/Spurs Under
My Hawks got buried at Houston and in fact, failed to cover the spread while at the process, consequently, the game did not go over either. They face a tough spread on the road here at San Antonio who is nearly a double-digit favorite. After starting the year 6-0, the Hawks are just 6-8 in their last 14. The Spurs have covered their last 3 and 7 of 9 while the Hawks have had an extra day to rest. Do note though the Hawks are a defensive team and the Spurs are as well and consequently, I would not be surprised to see this game dip under despite the recent high scoring by the Spurs. I think the Hawks slow this game down as do the Spurs. The bottom line here is that the Spurs and Hawks by nature are both defensive teams as this is one of the reason why the off shore line took a two point hit upon the opening of this line. On top of that, the Spurs come off a lackadaisical defensive performance against the Mavs and Coach Pop will undoubtedly make note of it as this team goes back home. The Hawks struggle against defensive teams such as the Rockets and Spurs. If the Spurs can hold an offensive team like the Warriors to under 90 points, they should be able to hold the Hawks to a rough shooting night as well. The under is 5-1 for the Hawks when they face a team with a winning record such as the Spurs and the under is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings between these two teams.
LA Lakers
Note, that Shaq is not expected to play in this game. The lines are not out yet for this game, but I am likely to stay away from it regardless. Laying nearly 10 points is quite a lot for the Suns, but of course, do note that the Lakers come off a rare loss at the Kings and will look to bounce-back big here. The Lakers already beat this team by 12 on the road this year and Phoenix has lost by 15 to Dallas on the road and 13 to New Orleans so by no means are the Lakers not able to cover this spread. In fact, by the numbers, they should have a great shot at covering the spread coming off a loss at Sacramento as they are likely in a foul food. Look, the bottom line here is that the Lakers are coming off a loss and I will gladly take them as such. What better way to come off a loss than thump a rival at home in front of your fans? The Suns who although have been strong at times once again have lost by DD to the likes of the Mavs and Hornets at home and the Lakers beat the Suns by DD on the road already this year. Take out the presence of Shaq and Bynum, Pao and Odom should have solid days all the way around as this team should do well on the boards. The Lakers are 4-0 ATS following 0 days rest and the Suns are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 road games.

2 Star Selection
Charlotte (+12 ½) over NEW ORLEANS
The Bobcats have been a pretty competitive team this season, as they are 7-2 ATS as an underdog of 6 points or more and have lost just 4 of their 21 games by more than 10 points (their only road loss of more than 10 points was at Cleveland). Tonight the Bobcats apply to an 84-32-1 ATS big road underdog bounce-back situation while the Hornets apply to a negative 50-133-2 ATS big home favorite look ahead situation (they play at Boston on Friday). My ratings favor New Orleans by only 10 points after adjusting for the expected slow pace of this game and I’d favor the Hornets by 12 points with Gerald Wallace out for Charlotte. We have a more than fair line and a good situation for the big dog and I’ll take Charlotte in a 2-Star Best Bet at +12 points or more.
2-Stars at +12 or more.

3 Star Selection
CREIGHTON (-6 1/2) over Dayton
Dayton has started the season with 8 consecutive wins but the Flyers haven’t faced a team as good as Creighton (their best win is against a vastly overrated Marquette team) and they apply in a very negative 7-43-2 ATS subset of a 60-146-9 ATS situation that plays against teams on a long win streak. Creighton, meanwhile, applies to a very good 188-81-9 ATS situation that has applied to recent Best Bets winners Northwestern on Saturday and Iowa last night. My ratings favor Creighton by 7.3 points and I’ll take Creighton in a 3-Star Best Bet at -7 points or less and for 2-Stars at -7 ½ or -8 points.3-Stars at -7 or less, 2-Stars at -7 1/2 or -8.
