Free Picks: Service Plays for Tuesday January, 8

Phoenix Suns +6
The Suns are a miserable 2-14 on the road this season getting outscored by just over 10-points a game. That alone will be enough to get the public to jump all over Milwaukee at what appears to be a reasonable price, but a closer look shows that Phoenix might be the team showing the value. The Suns matchup extremely well with the Bucks, which is evident by the fact that they are 4-0 S.U. and ATS over the last 3 seasons. Milwaukee isn't exactly playing well right now, as they come in off four straight losses. The Bucks are also in a difficult spot here, as they just played a division road game at Indiana on Saturday and must go on the road against division rival Chicago tomorrow night. I look for the Suns to keep it close and potentially win this game outright.

Atlanta Hawks +1½
Look for Atlanta to be extremely motivated tonight coming off back-to-back losses. Oddsmakers simply haven't adjusted enough for the loss of Kevin Love. Minnesota is just 3-6 over their last 9 games and could find it difficult to match Atlanta's intensity knowing they have a huge game at Oklahoma City on deck tomorrow night. The Hawks are a better team than they get credit for, as they haven't lost three straight games all season. I expect that trend to continue. Take the Points!

DePaul +9
UConn hass beaten DePaul seven straight times, the last four all by 14 or more points so ..... why take a look at DePaul here ??? The Blue Demons are a work in progress, somewhat improved over recent editions and seem to do their best work on the road. In fact, DePaul is 4-0 on the road with wins at Arizona State, Auburn and a rare conference win at Providence. UConn is young and on the improve for Kevin Ollie but they haven't shown much killer instinct often times getting down early and rally late against this kind. The Huskies have seven wins vs teams outside the top 100 and five of those victories have come by eight points or less. Thinking that DePaul might be worth a flyer here.

BROOKLYN (+1.5) over Philadelphia
Two teams heading in opposite directions. This is simply a horrible scheduling spot for the Sixers, who are playing their first home game in two weeks and are starting their fourth back-to-back situation in 10 days. The schedule is starting to take a toll as the team has failed to cover in five of its last six. Meanwhile, the Nets are on the upswing since P.J. Carlesimo took over for Avery Johnson as head coach, winning five of six, with the lone loss coming to San Antonio. Take the small number with the better defensive team, the more rested team and the better situated team.
