4 Unit Play. Take #864 West Virginia over Texas Tech (9p.m., Monday, January 25 ESPN) I am not as high on Texas Tech as others and feel they should not be this low of number on the road. They are coming off a tough home loss to Baylor last time out and I do not believe they will be able to get up for this game tonight in Morgantown. West Virginia has only played one game since January 10th, but they got back on track Saturday with an easy win against Kansas State. Texas Tech is 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games. West Virginia is 25-9 ATS in their last 34 home games against teams with a winning road record. |

5-Unit Play. No. 66. Take Vancouver over Ottawa (Monday at 10pm) As per your selection on Vancouver, we need to roll with the better team here and the one that's more desperate. Look, prior to the season starting, everyone was already down on Ottawa thinking they were going to finish last in the North division. They've lost four straight and that's looking like it's coming to fruition. The Canucks - well they were pegged to make the playoffs this year with a solid group of players. So far the results have been underwhelming and they've lost two straight games coming into this one. For some reason, they couldn't quite figure the Habs out, but I believe they'll have an easier time dealing with the Senators. The team spoke in length about how important it was to get a practice in yesterday for the first time in a week, so I expect adjustments to be made and the team to start building some positive momentum moving forward. Vancouver has the edge in net and up and down the lineup, so we'll back them at this price. |

NBA | Jan 25, 2021 Wolves vs Warriors |
UNDER 227 -110 |
Lost $110.0 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
Always a good thing for a struggling team when Minnesota rolls into town. The Warriors are coming off two straight losses and this looks like a good get right game for them. At 4-11 the Wolves are one of the worst teams in the Western Conference. They are coming off a rare win and rare offensive explosion last time out against the Pelicans. They scored 120 on that game, but they had failed to reach the Century Mark in four of their last five games. In today’s NBA that’s really bad. We don’t see them replicating their output from that last game tonight, and we think the Warriors can get their points and that this one can still go under in a likely blowout. |

NBA | Jan 25, 2021 Lakers vs Cavs |
Cavs +10½ -105 at pinnacle |
Won $100 |

The Cavs are a .500 ballclub this season. That is impressive considering what we have seen from this team in recent years, and we think they can keep it up. They should be primed for this game with LeBron James coming back to town. They played yesterday but the starters played limited minutes in a blowout vs. Boston, and we think Cleveland was looking ahead to this game with that dismal performance. We thought the Lakers might get out to a slow start this season but they have been great. But when they play well, the oddsmakers start to overvalue them, and we think that is the case here, especially with a game vs. Philly on deck next that the Lakers will probably be taking more seriously than this one as that next game is a potential NBA Finals preview. |
SERVICE BIO |
---|
Doc's Sports Service has been in the sports handicapping business since 1971, and we are recognized as one of the leaders and most trusted names in the industry. Most handicapping services are one-man operations, but here at Doc’s Sports we are among the most progressive thinkers in the industry, and we have assembled some of the finest experts in the country for our service. We are one of the few handicapping companies that have withstood the test of time because of hard work, honesty and consistently of providing winners to our valued clients. Since 1971 Doc’s Sports became famous for our college football Big Ten Game of the Year that won and covered the point spread 19 years in a row. Doc’s Sports is one of the only handicapping services whose powerful influence has historically moved the official Las Vegas line more than seven points. At Doc’s Sports we often focus on lesser-known teams and less-popular games as oftentimes less information is available on those teams and games and certain trends tend to stick out and offer value that the average person may not catch. Oddsmakers set lines to balance the action, so in reality we're often handicapping against the general public perception, and the general public rarely ever wins long term. When you think of it that way our job is really not that difficult since we have more than four decades of experience and know what to look for when handicapping a game. The sportsbooks and oddsmakers have to handicap and set lines for every game -- we simply find a few of their mistakes. Doc’s Sports uses a combination of technical and fundamental handicapping along with exclusive information that we gather from a vast network of contacts that we have developed over the past 40+ years. At Doc’s Sports we built our name in the 1970s by becoming one of the best in handicapping college sports. That still holds true today as our best results still come from college football and college basketball. We also have individual full-time handicappers for NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, WNBA, CFL and major horse races, and we feel we have some of the top experts in the country in these designated fields. We are always in search of the best talent for our team, and what surprises most people is that some of our best information comes from our own clients. These are trusted clients that have been not only customers but have turned into friends of ours over the years, and they are able to pick up on key information in their areas. We love the feeling of being able to help people make money when facing challenging odds. Good money can be made if one has the connections, and here at Doc's Sports we pride ourselves on uncovering the edge that gives the clients the ability to beat the books on a consistent basis. |
