Sunday 31st March

Miami Heat @ San Antonio Spurs, Spurs money line, 1.83 (betfred) 3 unit bet 

ATTENTION FOLLOWERS- NO LEBRON, WADE OR CHALMERS AND SKYBET ARE STILL OFFERING 1.75 WHERE OTHER BEST PRICES ARE 1.2, WE ARE NOW GOING TO BE STAKING A FURTHER 5 UNITS ON THIS! WE WANT TO LAY ON BETFAIR AT 1.2 THAT IS ALSO A VERY PROFITABLE PLAY!

We are also advising a 1 unit bet on Spurs -9.5 points, 1.99 (pinnacle)

Can the Spurs make 1st overall?

A big game in the association tonight as the overall number 1 spot is up for grabs. The Spurs have a formidable home record and the Heat are on a pretty phenomenal run at the moment. For me I base my bet on the Spurs unbelievable home record and in Heat's streak they did not face that many strong teams on the road. If the Spurs can play with the intensity they usually do and look to hit Duncan in the post to either take it on or play an in out offence they should score 100+. They just need to try and keep the big 3 quiet...

Cleveland Cavaliers @ NO Hornets, Cleveland +6 points, 1.95 LOST

Both teams have little to play for in the remainder of the season and both teams are struggling for wins at the moment. I like the +6 points for the Cavaliers tonight as they have their all-star Kyrie Irving returning to the team, which should make the cover of the handicap a value bet here.

Daily Double WON

Detroit Pistons @ Chicago Bulls and Boston Celtics @ New York Knicks - 1.68 (Pinnacle) 2 unit bet

I cannot see both home teams not winning tonight however I am not comfortable with either of the spreads. The Bulls very rarely rout teams and their home form this year has been a little bit unpredictable. Having said that they are in good form at the moment, even without Noah/Beleneli/Rose but maybe one of those three may return tonight. The Pistons are struggling massively at the moment both home and away but I just do not feel certain that the Bulls will cover tonight.

The Celtics are banged up and whilst the Knicks are missing Stoudemire, Chandler may well return tonight. J.R. Smith is on a hot streak at the moment and Raymond Felton is leading the offence well at the moment giving Kidd less time to play and therefore make more of an impact. The Knicks' bench will simply have too much force for the Celtics tonight and their ageing Pierce is carrying a lot of pressure at the moment with no K.G. I like to take this only on the moneyline as the Celtics will not let the Knicks rout them in a local derby.
