We're on a very nice extended win streak & we look to keep it going on Monday & the new week ahead. Feel free to comment & all the best to everyone tonight!
DALLAS -8.5 vs NEW ORLEANS (198)
This is the 3rd meeting between these teams this season. Both teams won on their home floor, including a Mavs win at HOME (112-107) as 7 pt favs 2 months ago. The Pelicans have 5 straight games & 4 of those were without their best player Anthony Davis. Asik has really stepped his game up since A.D. has been out. The Pelicans are now just 1/2 a game behind the Thunder for that final spot in the very deep Western Conference playoff race. They're coming off a (99-92) win AT Denver yesterday. The Mavs have lost 2 straight games & are sitting as the #6 seed currently in the Western Conference. Dallas had yesterday off & lost at HOME to Brooklyn (104-94) on Saturday. They were w/out big man Tyson Chandler their L/2 games (questionable tonight) and Chandler Parsons has missed their L/4 games (questionable tonight as well). The Mavs are just (1-5 ATS L/6) games following a double digit HOME loss. The Pelicans are (11-2 ATS) when playing on ZERO days rest this season. The underdog has covered 4 of the L/5 in this series. I have a small(er) personal play on NEW ORLEANS +8.5 here.
