Sunday Tips

The Sunday NBA card involves nine games, including several afternoon affairs. The 3:30 PM tip-off from Boston reunites two of the league's oldest rivals, when the Celtics host the Lakers.

Lakers (36-11 SU, 22-24-1 ATS) at Celtics (29-15 SU, 18-26 ATS)

The Lakers continue an eight-game East Coast swing, with L.A. winning four of its first six following Friday's victory at Philadelphia. The Celtics, meanwhile, try to bounce back after consecutive losses at Orlando and Atlanta.

Los Angeles has passed all the easy tests on this trip, beating New York, Washington, Indiana, and Philadelphia each by at least eight points. The Lakers stubbed their toe up in Toronto, falling 106-105 as four-point favorites. The trip began with a six-point setback at Cleveland, a game in which the Lakers held firm control before a late Cavalier rally.

Boston can't cover a spread to save themselves as this point, losing six of seven ATS. Since the return of Kevin Garnett to the lineup, the C's are 1-3 ATS, with the lone cover coming in the 96-94 loss at Orlando on Thursday as 3 ½-point 'dogs. In fact, the Celtics are 0-5 ATS the last five at TD Banknorth Garden, including a 2-3 SU mark in this stretch.

The Lakers swept the season series from the Celtics last season, topped off by a 110-109 overtime victory in Beantown last February as seven-point 'dogs. The C's eliminated the Lakers in the NBA Finals two seasons ago in six games, but many people forget that Boston covered all six times.

L.A. Clippers (20-26 SU, 22-23-1 ATS) at Cleveland (37-11 SU, 24-23-1 ATS)

The Clippers looked like they were turning things around, but then we remembered that they were the Clippers. Los Angeles dropped consecutive games to the league's two biggest doormats, New Jersey and Minnesota, as the Clips travel to Cleveland this evening.

The Clips were actually playing decent for a while, going 12-5 ATS since December 27, including covers against the Celtics twice, Lakers, Blazers, Grizzlies, and Cavs. All-Star snub Chris Kaman has been a big part of this resurrection, as the Clips are 10-2 ATS in this stretch with their healthy center in the lineup. However, Kaman missed Friday's loss at Minnesota, and is listed as 'questionable' for tonight.

The Cavs, meanwhile, continue to stay hot, winners of seven straight, and 17 of 20. To show you how amazing this run is for Cleveland, the three losses have come by a combined six points to Charlotte, Denver, and Utah. However, the Cavs are 2-5 ATS the last seven when laying at least eight points.

The Clippers look to avenge a 102-101 home loss to the Cavs suffered two weeks ago at Staples Center. Los Angeles squandered a 13-point lead in the second half, as LeBron James pumped in 32 points for the victorious Cavs. Cleveland backers did not cash in, as the Clips brought home the cash as 7 ½-point home 'dogs.

Magic (31-16 SU, 23-23-1 ATS) at Pistons (15-30 SU, 19-25-1 ATS)

Orlando is turning the corner and is slowly returning to elite status in the Eastern Conference with five wins in its last six games. The Magic is coming off a nice little sweep of the Celtics and Hawks at home, pushing their home winning streak to five.

Stan Van Gundy's club travels to the Motor City to take on the offensively-inept Pistons. Detroit tallied only 65 points in Friday's 27-point home loss to Miami. Amazingly, that was not a season-low for points, as Detroit put up just 64 in an ugly road defeat at Toronto right before Christmas.

The Pistons have seen highs and lows this season to go along with new faces and plenty of injuries. Detroit won five straight games to start December, then proceeded to drop 13 straight. John Kuester's team magically won three of four, but is now returning to old habit, losing four straight. As home 'dogs this season, the Pistons have beaten the Celtics, Nuggets, and Magic.

Orlando was a superb road team last season, but this season, the magic is lost on the road for this club. Despite a 13-12 SU mark away from Central Florida, the Magic is 3-10 SU the last 13 on the road, and 3-9-1 ATS. Also, Orlando is trying to clean up an ugly 3-7 ATS mark the previous ten as road 'chalk.'

Suns (27-21 SU, 24-24 ATS) at Rockets (25-21 SU, 22-24 ATS)

For some reason, the teams in Texas have problems covering at home. Dallas is riding a 16-game ATS skid as home favorites. San Antonio had dropped three straight at home prior to consecutive wins over Atlanta and Memphis. And Houston can't buy a cover at the Toyota Center, hosting the Suns this evening.

The Rockets are 0-7 ATS the last seven at home, coming off Friday's non-cover in a 104-100 victory over the Blazers. Interestingly, Houston had covered seven straight in its backyard before this skid. Rick Adelman's team is turning into 'fade' material as a favorite as well, failing to cover seven in a row when laying points.

The Suns haven't proved to be much better, going 3-7 SU/ATS the last ten games, while dropping five straight away from the Valley. Call it age, or the Amar'e Stoudemire trade rumors, but the Suns have faded fast following a strong start out of the gate. Phoenix is coming off a solid 112-106 victory over Dallas on Thursday night, ending a four-game ATS slide.

Phoenix has owned Houston this season, going 2-0 SU/ATS. The Suns knocked off the Rockets at the Toyota Center, 111-105 in mid-November, cashing as 2 ½-point 'dogs. Phoenix downed Houston in a back-and-forth affair at home, 118-110 earlier this month, covering late as 4 ½-point favorites.
