4 Unit Play. Take #698 Gonzaga -9.5 over Alabama (8p.m., Saturday, December 4 ESPN2) Alabama has a bad loss this season to Iona and making this cross-country flight to Seattle will doom them in. Gonzaga has a statewide following in Washington in people in Seattle will be excited to see them on Saturday night. Gonzaga is 12-5 ATS in their last 17 neutral site games.

5-Unit Play. Take Toronto -120 over Minnesota (Saturday at 7pm)

As per your selection, it's not every day you get the hottest team in the league at this low of a price. The Leafs have been the best team in the league for the last month or so and now get to take on a Minnesota team that has also won five straight. The difference in this will be the defensive side of the ice as the Leafs are in the top 10 in all major defensive categories while the wild are upwards of 16th or worse. The Leafs know this is a big game and I expect them to come out and win this game.

The Clippers played probably their most complete game of the season last night vs. the Lakers. But this team has been incredibly inconsistent, and this is a prime letdown spot after they go up against and beat their biggest rival then they face Sacramento on the road in a back-to-back. Paul George has ankle issues but is expected to play. The Kings beat this team in LA last time out, and they are rested. They also have wins over the Lakers and Blazers recently, so this team is playing well even though they have some head scratching losses too.

Boston’s offense came alive last night in a losing effort at Utah, but they scored 130, and if they can get anywhere near that tonight this bet will be an easy cash. That is doubtful, but with this low total we don’t need that many points from the visiting team. Boston has the much better defense, but they will be tired tonight and we don’t see them being that effective. But the Blazers defense hasn’t been good, and we think both teams get their points tonight. Five of the last six meetings in Portland have gone over the posted number.

We just think this is a huge letdown spot for the Warriors after they snapped the Suns winning streak last night. They played two straight against the Suns and also had a game against the Clippers, who are more of a rival than the Spurs, who aren’t really moving the needle from an excitement standpoint at the moment. But the Spurs have won three straight and covered in four of five games, and we see a competitive game here tonight.

10 Unit Play. Take #318 Alabama Crimson Tide over Georgia Bulldogs (4p.m., Saturday, December 4 CBS) Georgia has the best defense in the country but they have not played a quarterback like Bryce Young. Alabama will be able to move the football and put-up points against this defense and I am not sold on how Georgia will respond when that occurs. Stetson Bennett is a game manager, and I was not impressed with him last season. He has been efficient this season but has not faced any pressure. Alabama needs this game to make the college football playoff and Georgia will still make the playoff even if they lose this game. That is a big difference and will allow Alabama to win this game straight-up. The underdog is 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings between Georgia and Alabama. The Crimson Tide is 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games following an ATS loss in their previous game.

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take #323 Under in Utah State Aggies @ San Diego State Aztecs (3p.m., Saturday, December 4 FOX) San Diego State has a top defense and a suspect offense and that should set up a strong play for the under. The Aztecs allow just over 17 points per game and if they hit that mark on Saturday this game should stay under the posted total. Utah State has gone under the posted total in 5 of their last 7 road games. San Diego State has gone under the posted total in 37 of their last 54 games (1 push).
