Today's Lock: Warriors/Memphis Under 198.5

Weekend Results: A perfect 6-0 this weekend. We really put the hurt on some bookies around this country. VERY profitable weekend!

No, we are not touching the Monday night game. The Redskins are a very tough team to handicap right now. No need to press here.

The Memphis Grizzlies average somewhere in the 80s. The Warriors are not scoring 120+ every game like they were last year. We like the Under today in Tennessee.

3 Unit Play. #120 Take Over in Pittsburgh Steelers @ Washington Redskins (Monday 8:30 pm ESPN) Not much explanation is needed for this game but hear is the one telling stat that cannot be disputed. The over is undefeated on Monday night in 2008 winning eight of nine times (one push). Points can come easily on Monday night and who are we to argue with such an overwhelming trend. Washington 24, Pittsburgh 20.

Cavs +3.5 (POD)

Get your tums ready. You're going to need it. Look, the bottom line is while the public jumps all over the jock straps of the Mavericks at home, we are going the other way. Think about it, why would the Mavericks be favored by just 3 points over the Cavs? It's because the Cavs have consistently had their number. The Cavs also come off a loss at New Orleans and will be fired up not to lose back to back games. The Mavs have not looked overly impressive this year and with the addition of Mo Williams this team is even better from last year. Remember, this team took the Celtics to the wire at Boston and they can certainly beat Mavericks team that is getting used to Carlisle. Look for the Cavs to win this baby outright and remember, the Cavs are 5-0 ATS following a straight up loss, 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games and the Mavs are 0-5 ATS following a straight up win meaning that Vegas keeps a close tab on the Mavs and their ATS streaks.

Golden State Warriors -2 @ Memphis

Golden State played some good teams to start the season and they did start out with two straight losses. They opened their season at home against a very good New Orleans team and they hung right with them before losing by 5 at the end. It was a 1 point game heading into the 4th quarter.

Then they went up to Toronto. First road game of the season and it was a long trip to get there but despite it all they hung with a much improved Toronto team before falling by 4 in overtime. They had the lead with 14 seconds to go before Bosh hit two free throws sending the game into OT.

Then, they played a team who isn't so good, the New Jersey Nets and they blew them out. Yeah, the final score says they only won by 8 but they were up 16 heading into the 4th quarter. Now they play another team tonight that isn't that good and I just feel the Memphis Grizzlies will not be able to run with this squad. They are to good and to athletic for a team like Memphis to hang around with.

They won all 4 meetings with this team last year and 3 of the 4 were relatively easy. Look for them to continue their domination of the Grizzlies tonight and at this price, I feel they are a gift. Golden State is 3-0 ATS this season as the oddsmakers haven't been able to figure them out yet and tonight is another example of it. GS is a huge winner. It should never be in doubt.

Monday's Pick
10 Dime - Pittsburgh and Washington Over the Total



When I went against the Steelers last week, telling you New York would win outright in Pittsburgh as a road dog, you might recall my entire premise was based on the Giants taking a page out of Philadelphia's defensive playbook. The key to both NFC East clubs beating the Steelers was pressure they each put on Ben Roethlisberger. The Eagles sacked him nine times; the GIants sacked five times, hit him on 10 on occasions, and intercepted him four times.



Tonight you've got another NFC East club on Pittsburgh's docket, but Washington is missing a key ingredient shared by the Giants and Eagles: the Redskins don't have a pass rush. Washington imported Jason Taylor from Miami to bring the heat, but he's mostly been an injured spectator this season and consequently the 'Skins have just 10 sacks in seven games.



Remember when Pittsburgh faced Jacksonville earlier this season and the Jaguars were unable to get pressure on Big Ben? Personally, I've always thought the Steelers are far more dangerous when they're less reliant on running the ball and instead let Roethlisberger cut loose. He's got the receivers in his arsenal, including Santonio Holmes, who has been reinstated after being suspended for the New York game. And Pittsburgh is also expected to have Willie Parker available to give the ground game a boost, too. To me, those are the ingredients needed to make this game go over the posted price.



Defensively, I expect the Steelers, who are ranked 3rd versus the run with an average yield of 71.6 yards per game (2.8 ypc), to bottle-up Clinton Portis, preventing him from ringing up a sixth straight 120+ yard rushing performance. I believe for the 'Skins to be competitive they must take chances offensively, relying more on Jason Campbell, and that's another factor contributing to my prediction on the over.



The Steelers had gone over the total in three straight games prior to last week's versus the Giants. The Redskins are not in New York's class defensively. They're not as good as Philadelphia either. Pittsburgh stayed under in losses to both of those NFC East foes, but as I illustrated earlier, those teams had an element Washington doesn't: an effective pass rush. Without one, the Steelers will throw the ball with confidence and move the chains. The oddsmakers have set this total too low based on Pittsburgh's previous outings against the NFC, and that is a mistake.

Redskins -2.5 over Steelers
Washington's Jason Campbell is starting to look like a big time NFL QB. The Redskins have a great defense and are tough to beat at home. Pittsburgh has not looked as sharp on offense this season and will be without their starting LT which will have Big Ben on the move avoiding sacks all night. I would say these teams are about evenly matched, but the homefield will give the Skins the victory.
