Rocketman Sports FREE CBB play Wednesday 3-20-19
Southern Miss @ Longwood 7:00 PM EST
Play On: Longwood +9 1/2
The Southern Miss Golden Eagles travel to Longwood to take on the Lancers on Wednesday night. Southern Miss is 20-12 SU overall this year while Longwood comes in with 15-17 SU overall record on the season. Longwood is 6-1 ATS last 3 years in all tournament games. Longwood is 5-1 ATS last 6 games when playing in the first round of tournament games. Longwood went 9-5 SU at home this season. They should keep this one close at home and I wouldn't be surprised by upset win. We'll recommend a small play on Longwood tonight! Thanks and good luck, Rocky

NBA | Bucks vs Cavs
Play on: Cavs +9½ -108 at BMaker
1* Free NBA Pick on Cleveland Cavaliers +9.5
Love the value here with Cleveland as a near double-digit dog at home against the Bucks. The Cavs have the 3rd worst record in the NBA and simply are going to be showing value against a lot of teams down the stretch, especially at home, as the public just can't stomach betting on bad teams.
The key is looking for the ideal times to take them and I think this is one of them. Cleveland has won 5 of 7 at home since the All-Star break and simply are a much better team than their record. Kevin Love has only played in 16 games and they have been a lot more competitive since he returned. Rookie Collin Sexton has also taken his game to another level. He's averaging 22.7 ppg in March (only averaged 13.3 ppg in January).
Let's also not overlook the fact that the Bucks have been struggling here of late. Milwaukee is just 5-4 in their last 9 and are having to deal with the injury to Malcolm Brogdon. There's also a chance Giannis doesn't play or is limited, as he had to sit out their last game with an ankle injury. Take Cleveland!

NBA | Pelicans vs Magic
Play on: Magic -9 -103 at Pinnacle
1 Unit FREE PLAY on Orlando Magic -9
The Orlando Magic are coming off two straight double-digit wins over the Cavs and Hawks to stay alive in the Eastern Conference playoff race. And I expect them to make it three in a row tonight over the New Orleans Pelicans, who have gone 1-6 SU & 1-6 ATS in their last seven games overall. This is a depleted Pelicans team that will be playing without three starters in Jrue Holiday, Anthony Davis and E’Twaun Moore. The Magic are 11-1 ATS off four or more consecutive unders over the last three seasons. Orlando is 7-2 ATS in its last nine home games. Give me the Magic.

NBA | Rockets vs Grizzlies
Play on: Grizzlies +5 -105 at YouWager
Jack’s Free Pick Wednesday: Memphis Grizzlies +5
The Houston Rockets will be playing the 2nd of a back-to-back Wednesday after a shootout win over the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday. They won’t have much left in the tank after facing a Hawks team that ranks 1st in the league in pace. They are also expected to rest Eric Gordon, and he may not be the only one.
Now the Rockets have to face a rested Grizzlies team that will be working on three days’ rest after last playing on Saturday. It’s also a Memphis team that has been great at home here of late. Indeed, the Grizzlies are 4-1 SU & 4-1 ATS in their last five home games with four upset wins over the Magic, Jazz, Blazers and Lakers.
The Rockets are 4-11-1 ATS in there last 16 games vs. a team with a losing record. Houston is 7-14 ATS as a road favorite this season. The Rockets are 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games following an ATS win. The Grizzlies are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 home games. Memphis is 5-0 ATS in its last five vs. Western Conference opponents. Bet the Grizzlies Wednesday.

NBA | Heat vs Spurs
Play on: Heat +6½ -105 at BetOnline
San Antonio is playing its best basketball winning nine games in a row. DeMar DeRozan and LaMarcus Aldridge are each playing at very high levels. So is there any reason to step in against the Spurs? In this case, yes. The Spurs are in a sandwich spot off a huge home win against the Warriors this past Monday and taking on the Rockets on Friday. The Heat are at least a tier below the Spurs. But they are playing well, too, going 7-2 SU, 6-3 ATS. The Heat rank No. 3 in the NBA defensively, hold a point guard advantage with Goran Dragic back healthy and have been at their best on the road where they have covered 73 percent of their past 26 away contests.

NCAA-B | Arizona State vs St. John's
Play on: Arizona State -1½ -105 at Pinnacle
10* FREE NCAAB PICK (Arizona State -1.5)
I'll take my chances here with the Sun Devils laying the short number against the Red Storm. There's no denying the Pac-12 was down this year, but I think people are just assuming ASU will struggle because of that. This is a team that beat Mississippi State, Utah State, Kansas and Georgia in non-conference (also lost by just 6 to Nevada). They had won 6 of 7 before a heartbreaking OT loss to Oregon in the Pac-12 Tournament semifinals.
While Arizona State heads to the Big Dance playing some of it's best basketball, I'm not so sure St. John's deserves to be here. The Red Storm went 8-10 in a Big East that was pretty average after the top two of Marquette and Villanova. They come in having lost 4 of 5 and were embarrassed 86-54 by Marquette in the Big East Tournament. A game they had to be going into thinking they needed to win to make the NCAA Tournament.
St. John's is a very small team and have almost no depth. They use a 4-guard lineup and all 5 starters tend to play 30+ mins. I think that makes this a horrible matchup. Sun Devils are solid on the board and one of the best offensive rebounding teams in the country. They also like to push the pace and are at their best when in transition. I think the Red Storm are going to wear down and could really be in trouble if fouls start to add up. Give me Bobby Hurley and the Sun Devils -1.5!

NCAA-B | Arizona State vs St. John's
Play on: OVER 151½ -110
It's the First Four round as Arizona State takes on St. John's. The Sun Devils have won six of their last eight and want to push the pace when they can. They put up 75 points on Oregon's stout defense and have scored 70 or more in four straight and 10 of their last 12. Luguentz Dort, Remy Martin, Zylan Cheatham and Rob Edwards are their biggest threats with several others being able to contribute. St. John's brings some balance with five double digit scorers led by the potent backcourt of Shamorie Ponds and Mustapha Heron. The Red Storm specialize in playing high scoring games and have gone hot and cold when it comes to defense. They allowed 86 points to Marquette last time out and 74 to DePaul. This team seems to want to just outscore everyone and sometimes they can do that while they can't other times. I think this one is going to see plenty of points. The only worry is the neutral court settings messing with these teams, but they all just played on neutral courts in their tourneys. Give me the over.

Wednesday free play on Nebraska.
OK, I will buy into the Tim Miles/Nebraska story continuing tonight in front of the home crowd in Lincoln as the Cornhuskers play in this first round NIT contest versus fading Butler.
The Bulldogs come in with back-to-back losses that have dropped them to 16-16 on the year. Butler is also just 1-5 straight up their last 6 games, and have won exactly twice in their last 8 games overall!
The Cornhuskers may be shorthanded, but this is their first home game since their heroic run in the Big Ten Tournament in Chicago last week, as the "lame duck"??? Miles got his team to go all-in with outright dog wins over Rutgers and Maryland before they bowed out in a close one against Wisconsin.
Overall, the Huskers are on a 3-1 straight up run, and a 4-0 against the spread run as they look to continue postseason play here in 2019.
Butler is just 4-12 straight up, and 5-11 against the spread on the road this year.
Nebraska has won 12 of their 17 at home this season, and they have gotten major step-up play from both Glynn Watson Jr., James Palmer Jr., with Isaiah Roby coming into his own this postseason, as they continue to excel with just 6 scholarship players on the active roster.
I doubt they will have the steam to go all the way to New York City, but I would not at all be surprised if they come out "guns-blazing" tonight and simply put this Butler team in their rear-view mirror. Over their last 5 games, Nebraska is averaging nearly 10 points per game, and 4 rebounds per game more than the sliding Bulldogs.
Go ahead and lay it with Nebraska to continue this interesting story of Tim Miles and his coaching future in Lincoln.
2* NEBRASKA
