4-Unit Play. #572. Take Miami Heat -1 over Oklahoma City (Friday @ 8:10pm est)
We roll with Miami here as remember, Miami has lost the last two times to OKC although this is their first meeting this year. Don't forget we have won 3 straight weeks in Football and look forward to our 4th straight winning week. Miami rolls into this game, coming off a 1 point loss to Detroit, having given up 125 points in that game which is a far cry from the usual defensive presence of this team and this team had beaten Cleveland (tough to do), Toronto, Phoenix and Lakers prior to that. Miami needed a 33-17 4th quarter to force an overtime against Detroit and lost, we expect them to start fast today and win.

6-Unit Play: #567–568 Charlotte/Philadelphia GAME TOTAL UNDER 215.5-110 (Friday, December 20, 2024, 7:10pm ET)
Take Charlotte / Philadelphia GAME TOTAL UNDER as my top NBA pick for Friday night. This pick falls into one of my top NBA systems and I expect a very low scoring game here given the way these two teams match up against each other. Three of the last four games played between these two teams went under 215 and I do expect Philadelphia to step up defensively at home here tonight. Keep in mind these two teams just played and Philadelphia held Charlotte to 108 points. This is a Charlotte team that has shot just 42.8% as a team overall a season averaging 106.9 points per game. Play the UNDER

3 Unit Play Take #572 Miami -1 over Oklahoma City (8:10pm est):
This is a tough spot for Oklahoma City as they play in their 3rd different building the last four days. The Thunder also played last night as well and now have to get up for a game here against a well rested Miami Heat team that hasn't played since Monday.
Take Miami in this one.
Thank you and good luck,

7 Unit Play - Take #570 Cleveland (-9) Over Milwaukee. (7:30p.m, Friday, December 20th)
Cleveland comes into this game a stout 23-4 on the season, 7-3 in their last 10 games, and presently on a two-game win streak after thrashing Brooklyn on the road in a 130-101 final Monday. Milwaukee is now 14-11 on the year, 8-2 in their last 10 games, and presently on a three-game win streak after beating OKC on Tuesday in a 97-81 final. We have to expect an exhausted Milwaukee team after winning the NBA Cup Tuesday. Cleveland is presently a stout 2nd in the NBA when it comes to points per game, 8th in pace of play, 1st from the field, 3rd from the perimeter, with a defensive rating sitting at 9th in the NBA and an offensive rating sitting at 1st in the NBA. Milwaukee is 19th in the NBA when it comes to pace of play, which is a huge mismatch as we already are expecting some exhaustion. Milwaukee also struggles on the defensive side, ranking 12th across defensive ratings. Cleveland presently holds a home record with a stout 14-1 record, while Milwaukee is 4-7 on the road. Shifting into ATS trends, Cleveland is 11-4 ATS at home, 16-6 ATS after a win, and 19-8 ATS this season. Milwaukee is now 9-12-1 ATS when playing conference matchups, 5-6 ATS on the road, and 4-3 ATS as an underdog. Cleveland has Milwaukee’s number here tonight, and I expect them to throttle a double-digit winner here tonight at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.
Take #570 Cleveland (-9) Over Milwaukee.
