NBA | Dec 13, 2019 Lakers vs Heat |
Heat +5½ -104 at betonline |

My 10* BIG TIGER is on the Miami Heat. The Lakers have won three straight vs. Miami, including a victory at home by 15 points as 8 point favorites earlier this season. Miami has also lost two in a row at home to LA. Enough is enough and revenge is definitely a dish best served cold. Clearly it wouldn't be difficult to write a convincing argument for The King and AD to win this contest, as the Lakers rank among the best on both ends of the court. But Miami is 11-0 SU on its home floor, including 9-2 ATS. A visit from LBJ will have everyone on high alert here. I think the Heat's depth and their home floor advantage will at the very least, keep them in this one until the final moments. Key Trends: - LA is still just 14-20 ATS in its last 34 as a road favorite. - Miami is 25-15 ATS in its last 40 after allowing 115 points or more in its previous contest (including 2-0 ATS this season.) The verdict: This is going to be a battle until the final horn; grab the points! |

My 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK is on the OVER Devils/Avs. I think these teams easily combine to go over the number here this evening. New Jersey is desperate for a win here after six straight losses. The Avs have won seven of their last eight, so they'll have to be careful not to look past their lowly non-conference opponent tonight. Jersey' netminder Mackenzie Blackwood is just 8-9-4 this season with a 3.00 GAA and the Devils are 30th in the league in GAA with 3.57. The Avs' defense hasn't been particularly sharp, but its offense has. Especially at home. Key Trends: - The Devils have already seen the total go over in six of eight this year after scoring one goal or less in their previous contest. - The Avs have seen the total go over in six of their last eight non-conference games. The verdict: I expect a wide open, high-scoring shootout at the Pepsi Center tonight; play the over! |

My 10* CLASH OF THE TITANS is on Colorado State. I think the 7-2 Colorado Buffalos will have their hands full with the 7-5 Colorado State Rams. CSU comes in off a win, while Colorado enters off two straight losses. Most recently the Buffs fell 79-76 to Northern Iowa. Tyler Bey leads the way for Colorado with 13 points, 11 boards and 2.1 assists per game. CSU is led by Nico Carvacho with 13.3 points, 9.9 boards and 2.2 assists per night. Carvacho had 12 points in his team's most recent 72-68 home win over South Dakota State. Key Trends: - The Rams are 6-2-1 ATS in their last nine home games vs. a team with a road winning percentage greater than .600. - The Buffaloes are 13-37-1 ATS in their last 51 road games. The verdict: The Rams are not a push over this year and they come in off a confidence building victory which I believe gets carried over here. The outright is possible, but let's grab up the points! |

Born: Hong Kong Bio: It didn't take long for Ricky Tran to make his mark here at Sportscapping. He really gained notoriety during the 2018 NCAA Tournament, with the profits piling up in a hurry. He was the top money earner in the month of March, and he finished the college basketball season with a record of 53-28 +$16,925. After profitable seasons with both NBA and NHL, the baseball season has had it's ups and downs. He's looking forward to another profitable football season, coming off a +$13,940 showing with NFL in 2017. The "Old Guard" in the handicapping industry is still somewhat reluctant to accept the fact that times have changed. Ricky represents a new breed of handicapper. Youthful, enthusiastic, technically savvy and up to date with the latest tools of the trade; but he's not shy to trust his gut on any given bet and ignore the stats. Tired of the same old square bets you get from other handicappers? Join with Ricky today and get his razor sharp picks and analysis! Signature Picks: Shoot Out The Lights (totals play): As a fan, we all like to see a high scoring game. Whether it's basketball, football or hockey, offense is always more fun than defense. If you want to sit back and watch two teams pile up the points, this signature play is on a game that should go WAY OVER! Beware of Dog (underdog play): If you like playing favorites, you best stay away from this game. When Ricky decides to back the underdog, it usually indicates that the favorite is grossly overvalued. This particular play features an underdog that should threaten to win outright! Clash of the Titans: This signature play usually features a high profile game, often between two teams that are battling for the top spot in the league, division or conference. Game of the Week/Month/Year: The top play for each particular sport, for the week, month or year.
