Golden State is one of the three worst ATS teams in the NBA this season. And they keep getting the benefit of the doubt of the oddsmakers. Every now and then they flex their collective muscle and play a playoff-type game, but mostly they are just going through the motions waiting for the playoffs while they get their best effort from opponents on a nightly basis. The Spurs have won eight straight and we think there’s a good chance they will keep that winni9ng streak going tonight.

Almost every game from here on out is a must win for Washington if they want to make the postseason. This team played pretty well at home, while the Jazz are just average on the road. Washington has covered in seven of their last eight games and they are playing well above their handicap from the oddsmakers lately. We expect a close game here and think the home team will put their best foot forward.

This is a bad spot for the Pistons and an inflated number also. They are coming in on a back-to-back and playing their third game in four nights. They also had one of their biggest games – and wins – of the season on Sunday with a home win over Toronto. They probably won’t be able to emotionally get up for this game like that one. And this is the start of a five-game road trip for the Pistons, and we just think they will get out of the gate slow here. Cleveland has won their last two home games. Going to sprinkle a little on the moneyline here as well.

3-Unit Play. #573. Take Chicago over Vancouver (Monday, March 18 at 8:35 p.m.) As per your selection on the Chicago Blackhawks, we are going to continue to ride them as the regular season closes out since they are ever so close to reaching that final wild-card spot in the west. The Blackhawks have been one of the best teams in the NHL over the last half of the season and they are currently on a 5-game winning streak, as they are scoring plenty of goals and getting timely goaltending, none more evident than Corey Crawfords 48-save shutout at the Bell Centre vs Montreal on Saturday. Now the Hawks return home to face a Vancouver team that has won just 4 of their last 10 games and a team that has trouble scoring goals. The Canucks will also be playing on B2B nights and that's a spot they don't fare too well in as they are just 3-13 in their last 16 games while playing on 0 days rest. The Hawks meanwhile are 10-2 in their last 12 vs a team with a losing record and the h home team is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings between these two teams. Take Chicago in this spot.
