We are on a nice little hot run at the moment.

We are now 7-0 in our last plays. (8-0 if you include that Raptors pick with Drummond out). Either way it’s a nice little hot streak heading into Christmas.

The NBA will of course take December 24th off but will have the usual Christmas Day games. I should be here with betting tips for those no problem.

Vin took the Bucks -12.5. he expected the Bucks to dominate and crush the Knicks and they did it with ease with a 123-102 victory. Milwaukee started hot in that game and kept it going and the result was never in doubt which was nice. Love those nice and easy wins.

Vin also felt the Clippers would be big time motivated against the Spurs last night and he was right. It opened tight but then the Clippers pulled away. Kawhi Leonard put up 26 points in that one and the Clippers roulled out easy 134-109 winners.

The spread was 5.5 in that one.

It’s Sunday, December 22nd and we’ve got NBA from the afternoon onwards. The Mavericks head to Toronto in the game starting at 3:30pm EST.

Let’s get to it:

Mavericks vs Raptors Betting Tips:

The Dallas Mavericks are without Luka Doncic still. They’re not doing too shabby without him and they got that good win over the Philadelphia 76ers.

They are also an incredible road team with a ridiculous 11-2 record and have won 7 in a row on the road.

Now they’re underdogs as they head to Toronto.

The Raptors have quite the injury report at the moment. They got the tight win over the Washington Wizards but they are missing Pascal Siakam, Marc Gasol and Norman Powell. They do have decent depth but they need everyone to step up. Their eyes may also be on that Christmas Day game and they may sleep on the Mavs a bit.

A big part of it will be Tim Hardaway Jr. The Mavericks really need him to step up here. Kristaps Porzingis is someone who is stepping it up which has been nice and he is looking great at the moment. With Siakam and Gasol out that should be huge for him.

I just think the injuries will be too much for the Raptors and they will come up short. Mavericks have a little break coming up and that will push them that much more. Tough to bet against the Raptors at home but I like this spot for it.
