4-Unit Play Take New York -4.5 over Orlando (7 p.m. EST, Wednesday November 12)
The Knicks are on a back-to-back, but we are not bothered by that. They barely broke a sweat in beating the Grizzlies last night for their fifth straight win and cover, and they got to sleep in their own beds last night after the game. New York has won and covered in four of the last five meetings. Orlando has been mediocre on the road, while New York is a perfect 7-0 at home. Just feel like the Magic are still figuring things out, while the Knicks look to already be in mid-season form.
3-Unit Play Take Miami -6 over Cleveland (7:30 p.m. EST, Wednesday November 12)
Cleveland already lost in Miami on Monday but they had a full roster then, and now they have several key players out for this one. Miami is getting the best coaching in the league in our opinion and they are 8-3 ATS with a roster without many well known names. Compare that to Cleveland’s 3-8 ATS record, as they have not gelled yet and have been overrated by the oddsmakers. Miami should play hard in this one against a rag tag roster from the Cavs.
3-Unit Play Take Denver -2.5 over LA Clippers (10:30 p.m. EST, Wednesday November 12)
Denver is healthy for this one and once again the Clippers will be shorthanded. LA is 1-9 ATS this season and even with a full roster this team has looked bad. They are not playing well together and their defense and offense are both rated very low. Denver is coming in on a back-to-back, so we are getting a good number, but this experienced and deep team should have no problems here.
Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports

1-Unit Play. Take #548 Detroit (+1.5) over Chicago (7 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
3-Unit Play. Take ‘Over’ 235.5 Chicago at Detroit (7:30 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
These two teams have been showing the East they are going to be a problem if they can keep their effort and scoring at the level it has been at through the first few weeks of 2025. Detroit was always in the mix as a thorn to the higher ups (NY and Cleveland) but the Bulls have been a surprise. The way they play is hard for anyone to keep up with but the Pistons have the young legs so the over is the play in this one and play against the line movement with the home team.
7-Unit Play. Take #550 New York (-4.5) over Orlando (7 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
The Knicks are crushing people right now. They have covered four straight games – and none of them have been close. They have won their last five by 12, 17, 23, 36 and 13 points. I don’t see any reason to go away from them. Orlando has been up and down offensively all season long and they have not been good on the road, getting blown out by 10+ at Philly, Detroit and Atlanta recently. Let’s ride the hot hand.
2-Unit Play. Take #553 Memphis (+6.5) over Boston (7:40 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
The Grizzlies ran into a buzzsaw last night in New York. They should be better tonight. The Celtics had to play last night as well and they expelled a lot of energy in a loss to rival Philly. That came after back-to-back games against Orlando and I just don’t feel like Boston should be favored by this much over anyone.
2-Unit Play. Take #557 Golden State (+4.5) over San Antonio (8 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
The Warriors dropped to .500 on the season and just got wrecked by Oklahoma City last night. I feel a rebound effort here and at some point these guys have to show up on the road. There is nothing not to like about the Spurs. But they are just 1-4 ATS in their last five games and the market may be catching up.
2-Unit Play. Take #560 New Orleans (+8.5) over Portland (8 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
Portland is not the same team on the road. They shouldn’t be favored by this much on the road against anyone. I know the Pelicans aren’t trotting out much of a team. But they will still fight at home, where they are 2-1 ATS in their last three, and they are 3-1 ATS in their last four games. Hold your nose and take the points.
2-Unit Play. Take #564 Oklahoma City (-7) over L.A. Lakers (9:40 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
The Lakers have done a fantastic job of beating very bad teams. Other than their wins over the Spurs (by 2) and Timberwolves (by 1), the Lakers have beaten a bunch of schlubs over the last three weeks (while losing to the Blazers and Hawks). I’m not as enamored with this team as everyone else and stepping up to face the Thunder is another thing altogether.
2-Unit Play. Take #567 Denver (-3) over L.A. Clippers (10:40 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
Craig Trapp
4-Unit Play. Take #565 Atlanta (-3.5) over Sacramento (10 p.m., Wednesday, November 12)
The news that the Kings are going to blow up this veteran roster did not go over well last night, ugly home loss to Denver. Now Kings have to play in back to back against rested Atlanta. Hawks have won and covered 3 straight and think Atlanta keeps it going tonight. Take Atlanta to win and cover the spread.

7-Unit Play. Take #557 Golden State (+4.5) at San Antonio (8:10 p.m., Wed, Nov. 12)
I realize the Spurs have been playing well overall and also got Fox back recently. However, prior to a fortunate come from behind non-covering win at Chicago, the Spurs have had a lot of wins against struggling teams. New Orleans and Dallas are a combined 5-16 this season. Not only does SA have a road win over the Pelicans the Spurs also beat them in SA. So what about the other 4 wins that SA had before beating Chicago? It includes 2 against the Nets and Raptors who are a combined 7-15 this season. Now certainly I am well aware that the Warriors are in a back to back spot here but they emptied the bench last night at Oklahoma City because it was such a blowout loss to the Thunder. As a result, the Warriors starters all were in the 20-minute range for the game and rested in the 2nd half so they'll be ready to go tonight. After that ugly loss at OKC, you can bet that Golden State will be ready to respond big here. They are already 2-0 this season when off a loss by a margin of 20+ points. Another interesting note about the Spurs even though Fox is back is the fact that Dylan Harper was playing very well for them early this season and they have been a different team without him. They are 5-0 in games he logged at least 20 minutes and they are 3-2 in their other 5 games this season and, again, they could (should!) have lost the game to the Bulls outright too and that record would be 2-3 SU. The Spurs won the most recent meeting last season between these teams and that was at Golden State. The Warriors get revenge here in SA and remember they did win at San Antonio by a 148-106 final in the most recent meeting in the Lone Star state. I am expecting an outright win for the Warriors here but will grab the generous points on offer here as GS is undervalued in this one as a sizable dog in a bounce back spot. Keep in mind, 6 of the last 9 Spurs games have either been losses or have been wins by a margin of 7 or less points. They are not destroying teams and they are going to be challenged heavily here by an angry Warriors side. Upset alert! 7* GOLDEN STATE +4.5

4-Unit Play. #552. Take Over 238.5 Miami vs. Cleveland (Wednesday @ 7:40pm est)
We roll with the Over here between these two teams. What you get here is a Cleveland team that rolls in, and Garland played last game, Mobley is out, Mitchell is listed as he is resting, the Cavs have revenge coming in. So you get the Cavs with revenge, having several backup players who will look to score and run the offense at a much faster rate, then you get Cleveland who is likely to be an active underdog coming in and then you combine this with Miami coming off 3 straight wins and who is rolling right now scoring 126, 136 and 140 the last 3 games with a team that has 9 players scoring at the prospect of double-digits each game and we love the Over here.

4 Unit Play. Take #548 Detroit -2.5 over Chicago (7:10p.m., Wednesday November 12)
The Bulls have cooled off since their hot start and they are 0-3 in their last three and 1-4 in their last five. Detroit has won seven straight and covered in five of them. This line is short and the oddsmakers are giving the Bulls too much credit for their hot start. Detroit has won and covered in three of the last four meetings. Comfortable win for the Pistons tonight. Detroit has some injuries but they will still win the game because of nice depth and home court advantage.

Take # 948 Detroit (-2.5) over Chicago
*7:10 EST
Big news as Giddey for Chicago is listed as ??? I cannot trust an NBA injury report any further than I can throw a car. That said he is not 100%. If he does play it is on a bad ankle and he will be limited. Detroit is rolling at 9-2, and at home here. They have a solid defense and Cunningham is an absolute stud for them on offense. The Piston defense at home should do some damage here and allow them to get a solid 5-7 point win. They are #2 in the NBA in FG% allowed.
Vernon Croy
4-Unit Play: #553 Memphis, +6.5-110 over Boston (Wednesday, November 12, 2025, 7:40pm ET)
Take Memphis ATS as my top NBA pick for Wednesday night. This pick falls into one of my top NBA systems and I really like Memphis in this spot on the road in a game I feel they can win outright. Memphis also comes in this game hungry having dropped six of their last seven games overall. I also feel like this is a tough spot for Boston after playing their third straight road game yesterday. Boston has shot just 44.4% as a team overall this season including 32.8% from beyond the arc. Play Memphis ATS
Scott Spreitzer
4-Unit Play: Take 554 Celtics -6.5 over Grizzlies (7:40 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
Both teams are short-handed but the Celtics are better adept at making up for sidelined players. The Grizzlies are not only banged-up but the player they count on for leadership, Ja Morant, can’t shoot (nothing new). He’s never been confused with Steph but he’s at his worst this season, making just 35% of his FGA including 16.7% of his 3-pointers. I expect Boston to bounce back from a loss last night – a game they should have won. I’m laying the points with the Celtics. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.

3-Unit Play. Take #557 Golden State (+4.5) over San Antonio (8:10 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 12)
This line is getting bigger and bigger and now the value lies squarely on Golden State. The Warriors played last night, but they were blown out, so their top line players will have plenty in the tank tonight. Yes, San Antonio has been outstanding thus far this season, but they shouldn't be laying multiple possessions to this Warriors team. Steph Curry stunk in his return last night and will bounce back with a great game tonight. Give me the underdog Warriors here.

4 Unit Play Take #562 Dallas +1.5 over Phoenix (8:40pm est):
Dallas fired their general manager yesterday so that feels like a bit of a wake up call to this team that's started off the season with an awful record. The Mavericks have had bad luck when it comes to their team health but I think we may see a key guy or two back in this one. Dallas battled hard in their last game against a solid Milwaukee team who was off a loss but they fell just short in that contest. Phoenix comes in with a decent record but this is a team that's played a very easy schedule thus far.
Take Dallas in this one.
Thank you and good luck,

2 Unit Play - Take #551 Cleveland Cavaliers (+6) Over MIA Heat. (7:30p.m, Wednesday, November 12th)
Cleveland comes into this game as a 6-point underdog with a total sitting at 238.5. The market is giving us an incentive that a mass amount of points will be scored here tonight. Mitchell and Mobley are out tonight for Cleveland, and we do not see this as a negative. This has opened up tremendous value based on the line the market is giving us. Miami is also 7-0 on the season, and Bam is out tonight with a toe injury. We are aware Miami has won 3 straight games, including Monday night's head-to-head bloodbath, which landed in a 140-138 final in OT, in Miami's favor. We like the spot here for Cleveland. This is a bounce-back game, and we are catching 6 points. Last season Cleveland went 6-2 ATS as an underdog, 29-16 ATS on the road, and 6-1 ATS as a road underdog. This is Cleveland's spot, and we truthfully believe they win this game outright. Let’s take the +6 points for insurance.

7 Unit – NBA Take #547 CHI Bulls (-1) over DET Pistons (-110) (8:10p.m, Wednesday November 12th)
Now before you call me a homer for backing my Bulls tonight, let’s not forget we just went against them in our last 7-unit winner with the Spurs. So this isn’t about heart; it’s all about the number and the spot. The Bulls come in sitting at 6-4 on the season, while the Pistons have jumped out to a surprising 9-2 start, including a 4-1 mark at home. Chicago’s perfect home record was snapped in their last outing against San Antonio, losing 121-117, but that was a tough back-and-forth battle. This young Bulls team has shown real flashes; they can run with anyone in the league, averaging 119.2 points per game thanks to their up-tempo pace and athletic depth. Meanwhile, Detroit rides a seven-game winning streak, but they could be short-handed tonight with Cade Cunningham and Jalen Duren both listed as game-time decisions. The Bulls, on the other hand, have a few days off after this one and should come out fully locked in for four quarters against a division rival. Yes, Chicago has struggled a bit on the road at 1-3, but they’ve already beaten this Pistons team once and know what to expect. I like the Bulls to play loose, push the tempo, and snap their losing streak here.

This has opened up tremendous value based on the line the market is giving us. Miami is also 7-0 on the season, and Bam is out tonight with a toe injury. We are aware Miami has won 3 straight games, including Monday night's head-to-head bloodbath, which landed in a 140-138 final in OT, in Miami's favor. We like the spot here for Cleveland. This is a bounce-back game, and we are catching 6 points. Last season Cleveland went 6-2 ATS as an underdog, 29-16 ATS on the road, and 6-1 ATS as a road underdog. This is Cleveland's spot, and we truthfully believe they win this game outright. Let’s take the +6 points for insurance.

7 Unit – NBA Take #547 CHI Bulls (-1) over DET Pistons (-110) (8:10p.m, Wednesday November 12th)Now before you call me a homer for backing my Bulls tonight, let’s not forget we just went against them in our last 7-unit winner with the Spurs. So this isn’t about heart; it’s all about the number and the spot. The Bulls come in sitting at 6-4 on the season, while the Pistons have jumped out to a surprising 9-2 start, including a 4-1 mark at home. Chicago’s perfect home record was snapped in their last outing against San Antonio, losing 121-117, but that was a tough back-and-forth battle. This young Bulls team has shown real flashes; they can run with anyone in the league, averaging 119.2 points per game thanks to their up-tempo pace and athletic depth. Meanwhile, Detroit rides a seven-game winning streak, but they could be short-handed tonight with Cade Cunningham and Jalen Duren both listed as game-time decisions. The Bulls, on the other hand, have a few days off after this one and should come out fully locked in for four quarters against a division rival. Yes, Chicago has struggled a bit on the road at 1-3, but they’ve already beaten this Pistons team once and know what to expect. I like the Bulls to play loose, push the tempo, and snap their losing streak here.
