Saturday 15th of March 2025
Doc's Sports
3-Unit Play Take New York +7 over Golden State (8:30 p.m. EST, Saturday March 15)
Even with the Knicks missing Brunson, this is still a strong team and we think this line is a bit inflated. This should be a battle all the way through and we expect a close game. The Knicks have won and covered in four of the last five visits to the Bay Area. New York has won consecutive games and they should come into this one confident they can compete for the win. This is also a revenge spot for a recent loss for the Knicks at home when these teams met earlier this month.
3-Unit Play Take New Orleans -4.5 over San Antonio (8:30 p.m. EST, Saturday March 15)
Can’t think of a team with lower morale than the Spurs. They lost their coach, one of the best to ever do it, early in the season, then lost their two best players for the rest of the season. This was supposed to be a playoff squad but they are just playing out the string and waiting for next season to be back in contention. We just don’t see this team playing too hard down the stretch.
4-Unit Play Take Denver -11.5 over Washington (9 p.m. EST, Saturday March 15)
Any bet against Washington is a good one, and the Nuggets should roll in this one. We see no reason they don’t win this one by 20+. The Wizards have been given generous spreads all season yet they have a terrible ATS record and this squad is blown out on a regular basis. They are Fat and Happy, as we say, after a win over Detroit last time out in a quick revenge spot. They earned their night off tonight, and we don’t expect to see the same effort.
Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports
Craig Trapp
3-Unit Play. Take #538 Under (235) Indiana vs Milwaukee (8 p.m., Saturday, March 15)
These two just faced off on Thursday as Pacers had miracle 4 point play late to pull off comeback win. Bucks defense needs to step up and think we start to see the emphasis on defense will result in much lower scoring game. Pacers haven’t scored great lately and that has turned into 6 out of 7 unders. Take Under in the Indiana vs Milwaukee game.

Robert Ferringo
3-Unit Play. Take 'Over' 227.5 New York at Golden State (8:30 p.m., Saturday, March 15)
The Knicks have been playing good basketball without their leader and tonight is a huge test. Golden State has been a different team with Jimmy Butler and they are tending towards being a real contender in the West so NY will have to be ready to play from the tip tonight in primetime. The over looks like the rip tonight so take it with little worry.
Carpe diem. Good luck.

5-Unit Play - #545 Washington +11.5 -110 over Denver (Saturday, March 15, 2025, 9:10pm ET)
Take Washington ATS as my top NBA pick for Saturday night. This pick falls into one of my top NBA systems and I really like Washington in the spot, especially since Denver just played the Lakers last night. Washington did win the last meeting between these two teams back on December 7th winning that game by 9 points at Washington and putting up 122 against this Denver team. I really feel like this is a bad spot for Denver and Denver has allowed 116.7 points per game this season with opponents shooting 46.5% against them including 36.4% against them from beyond the arc. Washington comes into this game rested and they are coming off a nice victory at Detroit. Play Washington ATS
Scott Spreitzer
7-Unit Play: Take 542 Warriors -6.5 over Knicks (8:40 p.m., Saturday, March 15)
I’m laying the points with Golden State. Jalen Brunson scored 25 points and dished out seven assists when the teams met on March 4, yet Golden State still won 114-102 at MSG. Brunson was injured a few games ago and he’s still out and that takes a big chunk from New York’s game at both ends of the floor when stepping up against top-shelf competition. The Warriors certainly became top-shelf with the acquisition of Jimmy Butler. Golden State is on an 11-1 SU run (8-3-1 ATS). The Warriors are going to shoot 3’s and shoot them well and the Knicks are 29th in 3-point percentage allowed. New York is on a 2-10 ATS slide and they’ve covered just one of their last six as a road dog. I truly believe HC Tom Thibodeau has played his regulars too many minutes and they’ll pay for it against quality opponents. I’m laying the points with the Warriors. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.
August Young
2-Unit Play - Take #543 New Orleans Pelicans -2.5 -110 over San Antonio Spurs (3/15 @ 8:30PM EST) Both teams have not been playing well; but we have some serious concerns when it comes to this San Antonio defense. The Spurs have now allowed over 1,000 points their last eight games. FWIW; that works out to be an average of 131.13 ppg. Small edge here with the line coming down from the opener of -4/-4.5, but worth a small wager.
Strike Point Sports
2-Unit Play. Take 'Over' 234.5 Detroit vs. Oklahoma City (7:10 p.m., Saturday, March 15)
This will be an extremely entertaining game. OKC is one of the best teams in the NBA and can light up the scoreboard on anyone. The Pistons are playing with as much confidence as any team in the league and will want to match OKCs scoring prowess. Look for both teams to go at each other all game and get this total into the mid 240s.
Best of Luck - Strike Point Sports

1 Unit Play - Take #542 Golden State (-7) Over New York. (8:30p.m, Saturday, March 15th)
Golden State comes into this game 38-28 on the year, 9-1 in their last 10 games and presently on a six game winning streak after pouncing on Sacramento on Thursday in a 130-104 final. New York is now 5-5 in their last 10 games, 42-23 on the year, and presently on a two game winning streak after beating Portland in OT on Wednesday. Golden State is steamrolling right now and really hammering down in the west. Golden State is a stellar 20-13 at home, 30-21 ATS when playing non divisional matchups and 34-30 ATS this season. I expect Golden State to continue this insane tear and run up the scoreboard on New York tonight.
