AAA's FAN APPRECIATION NBA SUPER BLOWOUT!

This is an 8* SUPER BLOWOUT on the Toronto Raptors.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS statistics and common sense:

As note that Minnesota is just 2-4 ATS in its last six in the second game of a back-to-back scenario in which it scored 100 points or less in the first outing, while Toronto is 11-7 ATS in its last 18 after scoring 115 points or more.

The bottom line: No need to overanalyze this one, as Minnesota comes in tired after a 105-100 setback in Atlanta just last night. The Raptors have been alternating good games with bad lately, but they come in off a win over the Lakers and they also play with revenge here after falling to the Wolves 115-109 in Minnesota a couple of weeks ago. All the pieces are in place for a big time blowout. Lay the points, play on TORONTO.
