NBA Best Bets Today | Expert Picks for Tuesday, March 19

The Rockets are playing their best basketball of the season right nbow. They've won five straight and seven of their last eight.

Note though that Houston has seen the total dip below the posted number in eight of its last 11 after five or more SU victories in a row.

The Wizards play with revenge after a 135-119 loss at Houston just last week, and note that Washington has seen the total go "under" the number in three of its last four in trying to avenge a SU/ATS road loss vs. an opponent.

The Wizards have lost four straight SU/ATS, and they've seen the total go "over" in three straight, but note that Washington has also seen the total go "under" in three of its last four after playing to three or more straight "overs" in a row.

While their last matchup last week flew "over" the number, all signs point to more of a defensive affair this time around in the Nation's capital; this number is high, the play is the under!

Dallas is off a upset win vs the Denver Nuggets on Sunday night and have back to back games against the Utah Jazz after tonights game vs the Spurs.

The Mavs have already defeated the Spurs three times this season, with the last two coming by big DD margins.

But because of how easily the Mavs handled the Spurs Im betting they will in some ways be overlooking tonights opponents which leave them vulnerable especially considering they could easily be in a letdown spot after the above mentioned victory vs the top tier Nuggets.

DALLAS is 0-8 ATS off an upset win as an underdog this season. DALLAS is 0-9 ATS after a close win by 3 points or less over the last 2 seasons.
