<p>This inter-conference duel in Los Angeles will conclude a four-game slate in the NBA scheduled for Thursday, February 9, and here you can get the best Bucks vs. Lakers betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>Milwaukee is searching for the ninth consecutive victory when they visit Los Angeles at Crypto.com Arena. The Bucks are -3.5 favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betdsi/">BetDSI Sportsbook</a>, while the total is set at 239 points. These inter-conference rivals faced once this year; the Lakers won 133-129 in Milwaukee.</p>



<p><strong>Bucks are getting closer to the Celtics</strong></p>



<p>The Milwaukee Bucks (37-17, 29-23-2 ATS) are playing excellent basketball at the moment; they are on an eight-game winning streak and are hoping to repeat their longest winning run of the season (nine in a row). The Bucks opened their three-game road trip in the west with a 127-108 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers and now are only a win away from the Boston Celtics and the top of the Eastern Conference. Milwaukee was very good from the field (54.0%) and made 16 three-pointers opposite Portland’s nine, while the Bucks destroyed the Blazers in rebounds (55-28).</p>



<p>Brook Lopez led the Bucks with 27 points and nine rebounds. Giannis Antetokounmpo was right behind with a double-double of 24 points and game-high 13 boards, along with game-high eight assists and six turnovers, Jrue Holiday had 20 points, eight dishes, and four rebounds, while Khris Middleton ended the game with 13 points and five dimes.</p>



<p>PF/C Serge Ibaka (personal) and PF/C Bobby Portis (knee) are out indefinitely and will not play in Los Angeles on Thursday.</p>



<p><strong>Lakers fell short of the Thunder despite LeBron’s historic night</strong></p>



<p>The Los Angeles Lakers (25-30, 25-29-1 ATS) returned home from a five-game road trip, on which they suffered three losses, but lost the second game in a row after falling short of the Oklahoma City Thunder. Even though LeBron James wrote history as he eclipsed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the NBA's all-time leading scorer, his team lost 133-130. The Lakers were excellent from the floor (57.6%) but committed even 20 turnovers opposite Oklahoma City’s 12, which made a difference in this defeat.</p>



<p>LeBron James led the Lakers with a game-high 38 points, seven rebounds, and team-high three steals. Russell Westbrook added 27 points, game-high eight assists, four boards, and two thefts, Rui Hachimura contributed 14 points and six rebounds, while Anthony Davis had 13 points, eight boards, and two steals.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Milwaukee:</strong></p>



<ul>
<li>2-5-1 ATS in the last eight games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game</li>



<li>1-3-1 ATS in the last five games playing on two days of rest</li>



<li>1-4 ATS in the last five Thursday games</li>
</ul>



<p><strong>Los Angeles:</strong></p>



<ul>
<li>5-2 ATS in the last seven games following a straight-up loss</li>



<li>3-1-1 ATS in the last five home games vs. a team with a winning road record</li>
</ul>



<p><strong>Milwaukee Bucks vs. Los Angeles Lakers Pick</strong></p>



<p>The Lakers are a high-scoring team, but their biggest problem is a weak defense. Los Angeles is scoring 117.3 points per game, which is the 7th-best offense in the NBA; however, they are 27th on defense as they surrender 118.6 ppg. Milwaukee has a top 10 D that allows 111.8 ppg and is in better form than the Lakers right now, but I am still backing the hosts to cover, although I’d be surprised if they manage to get a straight-up win. Anthony Davis scored only 13 points against OKC, and I am backing him to respond with a 20+ display here. James, Westbrook, and Schroder should also play a key role on offense.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Take the Lakers at +7.5 (-133)</p>



<p><strong>The Total</strong></p>



<p>The Lakers cannot defend for their lives recently; they allowed 121+ points in six of the previous eight games, including 264 points in the last two defeats to the Pelicans and Thunder. Milwaukee, on the other end, improved offensively in the past couple of weeks. The Bucks scored 123+ points in eight of their last 11 games. Over is 7-3 in the Lakers’ last ten games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game, while Over is 13-4 in Los Angeles’ last 17 games following an ATS loss.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Go Over 236.5 points (-133)</p>

Sam Houston Bearkats vs Kennesaw State Owls NCAA Basketball Betting Pick & Prediction 1/16/25

For the first time since 2012, the RBC Canadian Open will be played at Hamilton Golf &amp; Country Club. For the first time since 1989, this event will be played in June. Usually sandwiched between a major and a WGC event, golf fans in Ontario will enjoy an unusually strong field with the US Open at Pebble Beach next week.

We’ll break this one down for you with odds on the right-hand side for desktop viewers and down below the comment box for mobile viewers as a good field tees it up in the Great White North.

&nbsp;
<h5><strong>Storylines for Days</strong></h5>
There is a lot to unpack with this event. It is the week before the US Open at Pebble Beach, which is storyline numero uno. This is the last tune-up for the field before the next major. Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka, Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas, and Matt Kuchar headline the list of players looking to stay sharp or smooth out the rough edges before going to California next week.

Of course, it also means that a lot of players are taking the week off to rest or get an early head start out to the left coast. Tiger, Phil, Fowler, DeChambeau, Matsuyama, Day, Spieth, Leishman, Finau, and Woodland are just some of the names not listed in the field this week.

This is only the fourth time that this course has hosted the RBC Canadian Open. We’ll talk more about the course shortly, but that is a big storyline, as we have very little course form data with which to go on.

It has been 65 years since a Canadian player won this event. That was Pat Fletcher in 1954. The Canadian Golf Hall of Famer ended a 40-year drought when he won. Karl Keffer won his second Canadian Open in 2014. This tournament was suspended for four years because of World War I. When it returned in 1919, Hamilton Golf &amp; Country Club hosted for the first time. James Douglas Edgar won. Eleven years alter, Tommy Armour won at HG&amp;CC.

There are 12 Canadians in the field this week.

&nbsp;
<h5><strong>Hamilton</strong><strong> Golf &amp; Country Club</strong></h5>
This course opened in 1915 and has hosted this event five times in the past. This is not a standard course for 2019. It is a par 70 under 7,000 yards. Scott Piercy tied the event record score of 263 with his win in 2012. The winning scores the last two years at Glen Abbey Golf Course have been 23-under and 21-under. Even with the low par here, expect this to be a real low score as players can attack these shorter holes very aggressively.

This course was the host site in 2012 and 2006. Jim Furyk, Brian Gay, David Hearn, Ryan Palmer, Jimmy Walker, and Mike Weir are the only players that have played both events. Furyk won in 2006. Piercy, Bud Cauley, Josh Teater, and Scott Stallings are the only top-10 finishers from 2012 that are in the field this week.

JB Holmes, Will Claxton, Brian Harman, Ryan Palmer, and Cameron Tringale were top-20 finishers. None of that should have any bearing this week, as a lot has changed in the seven years since the Canadian Open was in Ancaster, Ontario. Club technology, ball technology, and a lot of the players are dramatically different at this point.

&nbsp;
<h5><strong>Recent Form</strong></h5>
With minimal course form data to go on, we have to look at recent form and the stats. As far as recent form goes, the favorites really stand out, which also means that they stand out statistically. Dustin Johnson has two seconds, a sixth, and a fifth over his last six events. Brooks Koepka won the PGA Championship and has a run of four top-25 finishes, with three in the top 10. Matt Kuchar also has four top-10 finishes and a 12th in his last six events. Rory McIlroy has five in his last seven events. Sergio Garcia has been feast or famine with three top-five finishes and two missed cuts in his last five starts.

Shane Lowry has played really well of late with back-to-back top 10s. Sebastian Munoz also has back-to-back top-10 finishes and a 38th after missing four straight cuts. Scott Piercy has four top-20 finishes in his last five starts.

&nbsp;
<h5><strong>Scouting the Stats</strong></h5>
This is a really interesting venue because we have to really look hard at the course and see what types of skills it rewards. Distance off the tee may not matter nearly as much because everybody can get to every hole in two shots, even the par 5s. It may be more about accuracy and making putts this week.

Rory leads all players in strokes gained tee to green, with Johnson fourth, Thomas fifth, and Koepka 10th. Most of the top players in this department aren’t in the field this week. Canadian Corey Conners is and he ranks 16th in SG:OTT. At +8000, he’s worthy of a look, even if the pressure of being a native son is a lot to bear. Others to watch in that category this week are Kuchar (15th, +2000), Simpson (20th; +2000), and Henrik Stenson (24th, +3300). Stenson really looks close and on a short course like this, he’s probably a good buy. He’s also first in SG: Approach.

Speaking of SG: Approach, Sergio Garcia is second and Keegan Bradley is third. Bradley is kind of an interesting play at +6600, even though his recent form has been fairly poor. Bud Cauley has played well around the greens and leads the PGA Tour in SG: Around the Green. Brandt Snedeker is second. He plays well in California, so next week might be the time to take a shot on him, but Sneds does have back-to-back top-20 finishes. He’s +4000 this week. Cauley is +5500. Snedeker is quietly top 15 in SG: Putting as well.

&nbsp;
<h5><strong>Picks</strong></h5>
That pretty much narrows it down for me. While I won’t be surprised if a short price wins, I’ll be looking at Conners at +8000, Snedeker at +4000, and Stenson at +3300. The purse and the first place prize are up considerably this year with the timing of this event, so the top prices are likely to take it a lot more seriously, but those are some good price grabs early in the week.

<p>A heavyweight battle continues Wednesday night when the Houston Astros (13-11, 7-4 away) visit the Tampa Bay Rays (20-4, 14-1 home). This could be a potential American League Championship Series preview and both teams are playing well at the moment. Below is my <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/mlb/"><strong>MLB</strong></a> pick for the Astros vs Rays.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-houston-astros-vs-tampa-bay-rays-betting-pick"><a></a><a></a>Houston Astros vs Tampa Bay Rays Betting Pick</h2>



<p>The Pick: Houston Astros +114 at <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betus/"><strong>BetUS</strong></a></p>



<p>This game will be played at Tropicana Field at 6:40 p.m. on Wednesday, April 26, 2023.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-why-bet-the-houston-astros"><a></a>Why Bet the Houston Astros:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>✅ Houston is hitting some form and have won five of their last six games played.</p>



<p>✅ On the road, the Astros have won four of their last five games away from Minute Maid Park.</p>



<p>✅ Against Houston, Tampa Bay has lost seven of their last nine meetings.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-houston-astros-are-hitting-their-stride"><a></a>Houston Astros Are Hitting Their Stride</h2>



<p>What a series this has been and the Houston Astros got in the win column with a 5-0 Tuesday win. The series got started Monday with an 8-3 Rays win on Monday, so the Wednesday game will be for the series win. In Tuesday’s win, Houston put up five runs in the top of the fifth inning and that was all of the scoring this game would see.</p>



<p>Hunter Brown will take the mound for the fifth time this season and he will look to build on his early season 3.09 ERA and 1.20 WHIP.</p>



<p>Yordan Alvarez has been the main man at the plate as he leads the Astros with six home runs and 27 RBIs. Mauricio Dubon has a team high .329 batting average.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-tampa-bay-rays-finally-lost-at-home">The Tampa Bay Rays Finally Lost at Home</h2>



<p>For the first time this 2023 season, in their 15<sup>th</sup> game, the Tampa Bay Rays have lost a game at Tropicana Field. The Rays are off to a historic start and this April should have them already in the playoffs, which is a crazy thing to think about when there are still five months to go.</p>



<p>Calvin Faucher will grab the ball for the seventh time this season and he will look to improve on his 5.91 ERA and 1.50 WHIP.</p>



<p>Randy Arozarena may be the most confident man in baseball and he is off to a rapid start with a team high .348 batting average and 24 RBIs. Yandy Diaz has hit a team leading six home runs so far in 2023.</p>

<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>TENNESSEE TITANS at GREEN BAY PACKERS, 8:20 PM ET (Sunday)</strong></span></h3>
<h4><strong><a href="http://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betanysports">BetAnySports</a> Sunday Night NFL Odds: Packers -3 (-125), Total 53.5</strong></h4>
This game obviously has some true playoff implications. Green Bay can clinch the #1 seed in the NFC if they win and if the Seahawks lost. Tennessee is not assured of any playoff spot just yet.

One tie-in is with Green Bay coach Matt LaFleur, who had been the offensive coordinator for the Titans. So he knows a lot about the organization, but did not work under current head coach Mike Vrabel.

Aaron Rodgers had a rather hard time of it last week against Carolina, throwing for just 143 yards and getting sacked five times by a defense that is far from being outstanding. But his numbers for the season, which include 40 touchdowns and four interceptions, indicate that he is likely to bounce back from an off-game.

What you'll get with the Packers (11-3 SU, 8-6 ATS) is some balance with the run game, which has become revived in recent weeks, to the tune of 646 weeks in the last four games. Davante Adams is going to be virtually unstoppable, for almost any secondary (1186 yards, 14 TD's) and Rodgers has found a "money" guy in tight end Robert Tonyan (ten TD's).

The Titans (10-4 SU, 7-7 ATS) have been lighting up the scoreboard of late, tallying 187 points in the last five games. The team started turning things around when Marcus Mariota was benched in favor of Ryan Tannehill last season, and that roll has continued. Tannehill, a 66.5% passer, has a sizzling ratio of 31 TD's to five INT's and has been sacked just once in his last three games.

And then of course there is the beast that is Derrick Henry. He carried the Titans in the second half of last season and all the way to the AFC title game, and this season he's averaged better than 100 yards a game (1679 total, with 15 TD's). And Tannehill has a pair of outstanding receivers in Corey Davis 915.8 yards per catch) and AJ Brown (15.7).

So both of these teams have well-rounded offenses, with the capability of playing "winter ball."

Tennessee and Henry ought to find their way on the ground, as the Packers have not been super-sturdy against the run (4.5 ypc allowed), remembering they are often ahead and don't have to endure an opponent's imposing ground game all that much.

At the same time, if Rodgers is looking for some room to operate, he should find it against a team that doesn't put pressure on. The Titans are dead last in the NFL in Sack Percentage, and the decline from 6.3% last year to 2.4% this season is quite noticeable. And you know, the Titans are also the only team in the NFL that has allowed better than 50% success on third down (52.6%, to be exact).

And let's keep in mind that these are the NFL's two most effective teams when it comes to scoring touchdowns on red zone appearances. And by the way, Tennessee is just 30th in the league in red zone defense.

The tendency on the part of Tennessee is to go "over" the total with Tannehill at quarterback (21 of 27 starts). That would usually be the best way for us to go here, but maybe not as strong as it might be otherwise because of weather - we are looking at temperatures at 20 or below that at Lambeau Field, with the strong possibility of "snow showers" where they could have at least an inch or two.

I like Green Bay slightly here because of their defensive advantage, and because Rodgers isn't the type to commit a lot of turnovers, which the Titans feast on. And we can do a small parlay with that and the"over" on the side.
