Art Aronson – AAA Sports NBA Picks & Plays

1* FREE PLAY Kansas MONEYLINE.

I'll say bypass the spread, pay the price here for Kansas to get the job done here at home. Longhorns remain in first place in the conference, but I think they'll have their hands full here on the road. Kansas returns home after a loss at Iowa State. The Jayhawks have lost four of their last six, but they've also played the toughest NET Strength of Schedule in the country. Kansas has dominated this series at the Allen Fieldhouse, and I like that trend to continue; consider Kansa on the moneyline!

10* Northern Colorado (BIG SKY GOY)

Weber State is the better team, but it won't be in this one tonight. It's 12-11 overall, but just 5-7 on the road. Northern Colorado is 7-16 and only 2-6 at home. Weber State has won four of its last five, but off a tight 72-71 OT win at Idaho State, I expect a slight mental letdown here from the visiting side. The Bears on the other hand play with revenge after falling 81-72 at Weber State as 3.5-point underdogs on December 29th. That's signficiant to note here as UNC is 7-2 ATS in its last nine in trying to avenge a SU/ATS loss against an oppoent. UNC is off three straight road losses, which is also significant to note as the Bears are 8-2 ATS in their last ten after three or more SU losses in a row. Weber State gets caught looking ahead to its home game vs. 17-8 Montana State on Friday, and UNC rallies to snap the slide and get revenge; the play is Northern Colorado!

10* Wizards (EASTERN CONFERENCE GOY)

I love the way this one sets up for Washington. I think an outright is possible, but my official call will be to grab as many points as you can. Cleveland is off B2B wins, but off a 122-103 victory at the Pacers just last night, I believe the Cavs come in fatigued here in the second game of the B2B scenario. Cleveland is 33-22 this year, but still just 1l-16 on the road. The Wizards have had big leads in each of their last two losses, so they won't be taking anything for granted here. The Wizards play with the added incentive of revenge as well after falling 117-107 in OT at Cleveland in October. Washington has three straight "winnable" games at home here with Charlotte and Indiana coming to town next. As I said off the top, clearly the outright win is a very real possibility, but let's grab the points; the play is Washington!

10* Monza (Seria A GOY)

Two teams moving in opposite directions, I say we're getting great value on Monza. Sampdoria is coming off a fourth straight loss, while Monza is riding high off a win over Juventus, sweeping both games. Samp is coming off a 2-0 loss to Atalanta. It also only has six total goals on the road so far this season. Monza coach Raffaele Palladino should have an almost full squad available to him on Monday. This is going to be a burial and as I said off the top, this line could/should in fact be much larger; the play is Monza!
