  • 3:30PM CST: Miami Heat vs. Sacramento Kings 2 -2.5; Total 177.5

Something I noticed when checking out both of these teams is the Miami Heat’s starting 5 is not a defensive team. They are all primarily offensive players like Cole Swider, Pelle Larson and Kel’el Ware. They may bounce back today but I prefer the Kings roster and their momentum after winning yesterday.

  • 9:00PM CST: San Antonio Spurs vs. Sacramento Kings 1 -7; Total 168

The Miami Heat were beat by thirty points last night like the Spurs and came out ready to play. Will the Spurs be able to do the same? The Kings had a great shooting day yesterday and will look to do the same. The Spurs have talent but not as much experience as some of the Kings players. I think San Antonio has a better night. Remember, we will take ML shots on games like this as last year only a handful of games had the spread in play. I’m taking the dog.
