3-Unit Play #802 Take Indiana +1 Over Dallas (7 p.m. EST, Friday)
The Pacers should have Troy Murphy back in the fold tonight and we feel this is the spot where they get back on track tonight. This team plays well at home and had won six straight here before two losses to tough teams. The Mavs have lost three straight on the road and seven of their last nine. The Mavs are 1-7 ATS in their last eight meetings in Indiana and the home team is 13-3-1 ATS in the last 17 meetings.

5-Unit Game of the Week #808 Take New York -9 ½ Over Sacramento (7:30 p.m. EST, Friday)
4-Unit Play #807 Take Sacramento/New York UNDER 225 ½ (7:30 p.m. EST, Friday)
These teams met once this season already, in Sacramento, and the Knicks won by 24 and this Kings team was more stacked them before they had their firesale to the Bulls. The Kings have had all sorts of problems scoring lately and this team has been blown out by an average of 19 points in their last two games. Their main threat for a big game, Kevin Martin, is questionable tonight and we just don’t see any way the Kings can keep up with the Knicks tonight in a game that we think will be another blowout. This Sacramento team really struggles offensively on the road and we think that will continue tonight as they are shorthanded. The Knicks have had a very road-heavy schedule lately and we think this is the perfect chance for a break-out game. New York has covered four of their last five and we think they continue to stay hot ATS tonight.

3-Unit Play #810 Take Oklahoma City +5 ½ Over Utah (8 p.m. EST, Friday)
Oklahoma City has dominated this series ATS, cashing in 10 of the last 14 meetings. The underdog is also 11-4 ATS in the last 15 meetings. Last time these teams met in OKC the Thunder got a 20+ point win and I am sure they remember the drubbing they got on a recent visit to Utah and have had this game circled on their calendar. Utah has lost three straight road games and although OKC has been in a bit of a slump they have had a real tough schedule and we think they keep this one real close with a chance for the straight up win.
