5* NBA EASTERN CONF TOTAL OF THE WEEK MAX BET This is a low total, and if we combine the spread with the total the bookmakers project the Celtics to win 111.5 - 97.5. I think Heat will score 100+, but I'm still not sure that will be enough to cover the number; the Celtics are an offensive juggernaut that has scored 130+ points in back-to-back games while barely breaking a sweat.

MIKE'S 4* NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY Both teams are dealing with injuries, which most likely will result in a lower-scoring game than the betting market anticipates. Nuggets' Jamal Murray is listed as questionable with a sprained right ankle. Lakers' Lebron James is also listed as questionable (ankle) while Anthony Davis is listed as probable (Achilles), and these are just the more notable names as both teams have more players banged up.

The Warriors are playing their best basketball of the season (8-2 SU and ATS L10), but still need to make up ground to make the playoffs. This is also a revenge game for the Warriors after losing 130-127 when they hosted Denver on Jan 4, and things are clicking a lot better for the Warriors this time around. Warriors are 39-19-1 ATS in their last 59 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. Nuggets are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games following an ATS win. Under is 7-2 in Warriors last 9 overall.

The Chicago Bulls have averaged only 100.5 points over their last six games. Under is 14-6 in Nets last 20 games as a home favorite of 0.5-4.5.

MIKE'S BUCKS/PACERS NBA TOTAL BOOKIE BOMBER Both teams will be playing on no rest, with the Milwaukee Bucks coming off a 120-118 win over Detroit while the Indiana Pacers are coming off a 134-118 win over Utah. We won with the over in Milwaukee as a free pick yesterday but lost with the under in Indiana as a premium play. For this matchup, I like the over as I think tired legs will have a bigger negative effect on the defensive end than the offensive end. Since the start of last season, the Pacers are 11-4 to the over when playing on 0 days rest, and they are 7-1 to the over overall this season. 3* PLAY ON OVER.

Mike Lundin's Pistons/Bucks NBA Free Pick The Detroit Pistons are heading to Milkwaukee on a five-game losing streak, and they allowed 120 points or more in four of those losses. This is a bad time to face a Bucks team that is coming off a 129-125 win in Brooklyn. Defensively, the Bucks have had their issues in the early goings as well, as they rank only 25th with 119.7 points allowed per game. 2* FREE PICK ON THE OVER. Mike Lundin is coming off a 2-0 SWEEP with his NHL Tuesday. His TOP-RATED NHL premium picks are on a RED HOT 16-2 (89%) RUN with profits of +$13,960 for $1,000/game bettors!

The Warriors defeated the Thunder 141-139 Friday night, but note that the under is 2-0 this season when they scored 120+ points in their previous game. The Cavs put up 116 points in a loss in Indiana on Friday but they are averaging only 105.7 ppg (26th) for the season. Since the start of last season, the Cavs have a 17-26 over/under record as home favorites. The Warriors average only 93.9 possessions per game (21st) and Cleveland 92.9 possessions per game (23rd).

Expect fresh legs from both sides, leading to high-tempo basketball and effective offenses. Over is 4-1 in Heat last 5 games playing on 2 days rest.

I tbink we'll see a high-scoring game here at TD Garden as the Celtics look to build on the momentum of Tuesday's win. Over is 10-1 in Heat's last 11 road games. Over is 5-2 in Celtics last 7 home games. Over is 11-4 in Celtics last 15 overall. Over is 22-8 in Heat last 30 overall. 8* PLAY ON OVER.
