Memphis with a great chance for a B2B win, the first one after more than a month...
 
I think that Memphis + SAS + Heat ML parlay should be decent play for evens odds.

Also I like Under in first half and quarter in Sacramento.
 
Jordan did a nice job. Hopefully the jerseys look good as well.

[h=2]MAVERICKS AT ROCKETS, 8 P.M. ET[/h] December 23, 2013 · 6:55PM
TV: League Pass

  • The Rockets will be without their typical starting backcourt when they host the Mavericks on Monday, as leading scorer James Harden (sprained right ankle) will sit out for the second game in a row and starting point guard Patrick Beverley is expected to miss four to six weeks after fracturing his right hand in Saturday’s win at Detroit. Jeremy Lin, who will be back in the lineup after missing the last four games with back spasms, and Francisco Garcia will attempt to fill the void in Houston’s starting five alongside Chandler Parsons, Terrence Jones and Dwight Howard.

  • The Rockets (18-10) are also thin in the frontcourt due to the absence of reserves Greg Smith (right knee sprain) and Omer Asik (right thigh contusion). Houston will attempt to make do with Donatas Motiejunas and Jones splitting minutes at the center position when Howard rests on the sideline. “Whoever is on the floor has just got to go play,” coach Kevin McHale said. “I’ve said it all along. Everybody who’s not playing is always complaining about not playing, but then they get a chance to go play and they either prove the coach wrong or prove the coach right. We’ve got a chance for some guys to go prove [themselves] and see where it’s at.”

  • Dallas’ Dirk Nowitzki moved up a spot on the NBA’s all-time scoring list the last time these clubs met, passing Reggie Miller for 15th place during a 123-120 come-from-behind win for the Mavericks (15-12) on Nov. 20. The dynamic 7-footer will have a chance to inch further up the list while facing the Rockets yet again. Nowtizki (25,600) enters Monday’s contest 14 points shy of leap-frogging the legendary Alex English (25,613) for No. 13. “Dirk’s a unique, unique player,” McHale said. “He really started the spread four [power forward] stuff that you see nowadays. … I was really impressed with him and very interested in a lot of stuff he did. I watched him work out with his shooting coach and stuff, and I said, ‘No wonder you make all those crazy shots.’”

  • Home-court advantage has been vital to both teams’ success so far this season. The Rockets have racked up an 11-3 record at Toyota Center, taking nine of their last 10 home tilts, while the Mavericks have earned only four of their 15 victories away from Dallas.

[h=2]Hawks at Heat, 7:30 p.m., ET[/h] December 23, 2013 · 6:55PM
TV: League pass

  • Heat guard Dwyane Wade will not play because of knee soreness. It is the seventh game Wade has missed for “maintenance” reasons.
  • Guard Ray Allen will start in place of Wade.
  • Forward Michael Beasley, who has missed the past seven games with a strained hamstring, will dress tonight. Coach Erik Spoelstra said he is unsure if Beasley will play.
  • Hawks center Gustavo Ayon, who has been out since the preseason with a shoulder injury, is expected to dress.
  • Atlanta will have a different look this time around, with guard Lou Williams and forward Paul Millsap in the lineup. Both missed the first meeting between the teams.

[h=2]PACERS AT NETS, 7:30 P.M. ET[/h] December 23, 2013 · 6:53PM
TV: League Pass

  • Pacers guard Lance Stephenson returns to his native Brooklyn a rising star. Stephenson’s three triple doubles are an NBA-high, while teammates and coaches are touting him as a possible candidate for the All-Star team. “I’m not really worried about that,” Stephenson said. “My goal is winning games and helping my teammates do that.”
  • In Brook Lopez’s absence, the Nets will start Kevin Garnett at center and Mirza Teletovic at power forward. Nets coach Jason Kidd say he would evaluate Teletovic’s role as a starter on a game by game basis.
  • Pacers center Roy Hibbert seemed unnerved by the fact that the Pacers aren’t playing on Christmas. “No comment,” he said. Asked if he would want to play on Christmas, Hibbert said, “I’m going to leave that one alone.”
  • Danny Granger will play his third game after returning from injury. On Monday, Granger sank 4-for-5 from beyond the arc in the Pacers’ victory over the Celtics.
  • Jason Terry will return to the lineup for the Nets after missing 15 games with a bruised left knee. Kidd said the Nets would play Terry a “manageable” amount of minutes.

[h=2]BUCKS at BOBCATS, 7 P.M. ET[/h] December 23, 2013 · 6:15PM
TV: League Pass

  • This will be the third game between Charlotte and Milwaukee in the past 30 days. and the Bobcats have won by an average of 20.0 points. They defeated the Bucks by 24 in Milwaukee on November 23 and by 17 at home on November 29. Milwaukee has not had a winning streak all season and is coming off a 116-106 win over Philadelphia Saturday. The Bucks have also lost three straight at Time Warner Cable Arena.

  • Miroslav Raduljica will be starting tonight at center for Milwaukee. Raduljica has scored in double digits in three of the last six games, including a career-high 14 points in Saturday night’s win over the Philadelphia 76ers. The Bucks front court has been decimated by injury this year. Milwaukee will definitely be without Zaza Pachulia(rightfoot fracture), Ersan Ilyasova (sprained ankle) and Larry Sanders (post-surgery, right thumb). John Henson (knee) was questionable, but will play after testing out his injured knee in pre-game warm-ups.

  • With the injuries facing the Bucks front line look for Charlotte center Al Jefferson to try and dominate on the low block. Jefferson has averaged 22.3 points and 13.0 boards over his last three games and in his last four games against Milwaukee has averaged 21.8 points and 10.0 rebounds. Charlotte’s offense has struggled of late though, scoring more than 85 just once in the last four games while sitting towards the bottom of the league in offense.

  • Charlotte Bobcats forward Jeffery Taylor underwent successful surgery today to repair the rupture in his right Achilles tendon that he suffered in Friday’s game at Detroit. The surgery was performed by foot specialist Dr. Bob Anderson. Following four weeks of non-weight bearing, Taylor will begin the rehabilitation process. The standard timeline for recovery is 6-9 months. Taylor suffered the injury Friday night at Detroit. Anthony Tolliver will get the start in his place.

[h=2]PISTONS AT CAVALIERS, 7 P.M. ET[/h] December 23, 2013 · 6:06PM
TV: League Pass

  • Cavaliers rookie power forward Anthony Bennett — the No. 1 overall pick in the NBA Draft — returns after missing two games with flu-like symptoms. The Nevada-Las Vegas product has played in 20 games off the bench, averaging 2.2 points in 10.0 minutes while shooting .277 from the field. “I don’t know how many minutes he’ll get, but we’ll slide Anthony back into his role in the rotation,” Cleveland coach Mike Brown said. “He’s feeling better, though, so it’s good for us to have him available.”
  • Cavaliers shooting guard Dion Waiters (right wrist tendinitis) continues to wear a protective brace and is out for the third straight contest. Waiters said he “hopes to be back soon,” but there is no timetable for his return. The second-year pro is Cleveland’s sixth man — and its second-leading scorer at 14.9 points per game. Undrafted rookie shooting guard Matthew Dellavedova will continue to add minutes in Waiters’ absence. “We’re going to continue to use Delly more,” Brown said.
  • The Pistons’ lineup is point guard Brandon Jennings, rookie shooting guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, small forward Josh Smith, power forward Greg Monroe, and center Andre Drummond. Detroit is 7-6 on the road, making it one of eight NBA teams with a better record away from home. “I don’t have any theories why that is,” Pistons coach Maurice Cheeks said. “I just don’t know.”
  • The Cavaliers’ starters are All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving, shooting guard C.J. Miles, small forward Alonzo Gee, power forward Tristan Thompson, and center Andrew Bynum. Cleveland has won five of its last six home games and is 8-4 overall at Quicken Loans Arena. Brown said Gee and rookie small forward Sergey Karasev also could log limited time at shooting guard.
  • Detroit shooting guard Rodney Stuckey (right shoulder soreness) is in uniform, while rookie point guard Peyton Siva and rookie power forward Tony Mitchell are inactive. Center Henry Sims and Waiters are inactive for the Cavaliers.

[h=2]KNICKS AT MAGIC, 7 P.M. ET[/h] December 23, 2013 · 6:04PM
TV: League Pass

  • Raymond Felton will start at point guard for the Knicks after missing six games with a strained left hamstring. New York went 3-3 without him.
  • Metta World Peace remains out with a sore left knee.
  • The Knicks will play five of their next seven on the road, but that’s not where the problem is, according to coach Mike Woodson. “We just haven’t been able to win at home (4-10) and it shouldn’t be that way; we’ve got it backwards,” Woodson said. “If you’re talking about trying to win our division, which I still think we can, then we’ve go to pick it up at home and try to get some of the games we’ve given away at home, back on the road.”
  • The Knicks beat the Magic, 121-83, in New York on Dec. 6, their seventh straight win against Orlando. Carmelo Anthony scored 20 points that night, 6.5 below his scoring average. “At their place it was more than Carmelo,” recalled Magic coach Jacque Vaughn. “We focused on that, but it was Tim Hardaway Jr., it was Metta World Peace, it was J.R. Smith . . . It’s up to us to not let those guys get going, and at that same time give Carmelo different (defensive) looks.”
  • With Tobias Harris back in the Magic lineup, leading scorer Arron Afflalo moves from small forward back to shooting guard, which is his natural position for defensive reasons, according to Vaughn. “It’s a load off him because we’re asking him to do so much offensively for us, too,” Vaughn said.
  • The Magic have lost 10 of 12 and are coming off back-to-back homecourt losses to Utah and Sacramento.
  • KNICKS LINEUP: Anthony, Andrea Bargnani, Tyson Chandler, Felton, Iman Shumpert.
  • MAGIC LINEUP: Harris, Glen Davis, Nikola Vucevic, Afflalo, Jameer Nelson.
 
2 team teaser ties win minus 28 cents
Toronto plus 17

Honestly think both cover without the teaser

Click to expand...

are you saying there have been times you've bet on a teaser where you DIDN'T think they would cover without the tease???
 
Probably way back in time but not for years. Here Spurs have to be delighted to see OKC humbled and have a lot of games coming up with little rest and the combination of Lakers off a blow out and Suns beating them in LA makes a cover likely.
 
NBA teasers are just not smart. Especially right now when the lines aren't tight with football going on
 
Never bet in a hurry. Has zero time today. Tend to think Gasol should have been rested today. Bad action is very common on hurried bets. Sorry
