PICKWISE

Good morning, Pickswise Nation, and welcome to another super Sunday of sports. We have bad news and good news — the bad news is there are only 3 games left in this NFL season but the good news is that 2 of them are today and we can’t wait to see the 49ers vs Eagles and Bengals vs Chiefs heavyweight clashes. We have everything you need to enhance your enjoyment of today’s NFL games, plus the action in the NBA, NHL, college basketball and soccer, so let’s get straight to making your next bet better.

About Last Night

Celtics and Suns win in OT
There was a controversial end to last night’s game between the Lakers and Celtics as no foul was called on a missed layup by LeBron James at the end of regulation and the Celtics went on to win 125-121 in OT. Suns spread backers were delighted that their game went to overtime, as Phoenix pulled clear in the extra period to beat the Spurs 128-118 and cover the 6-point spread.

Panthers upset the Bruins
The Boston Bruins are hardly in crisis with a 38-6-5 record, but Saturday’s 4-3 overtime loss to the Florida Panthers was the first time this season that they had lost back-t0-back games. They are +500 Stanley Cup favorites with FanDuel Sportsbook.

Crimson Tide sunk by Sooners
Alabama had been ranked as the #2 NCAAB team, but a 93-69 loss to Oklahoma as 6-point favorites will not help their status, with Houston, Tennessee, Kansas State, Arizona, Virginia and Kansas all winning.

Best Bet of the Day

NFL: Under 46.5 points in San Francisco 49ers vs Philadelphia Eagles
3:00 pm ET, FOX

The NFC Championship Game features two of the more prolific offenses in the NFL, but also two of the top defenses. The Eagles are ranked 6th in DVOA for total defense, while the 49ers have a defense that ranks 1st overall in DVOA defensive rankings. The under has hit in the last 4 games for the Eagles, including last week’s win over the Giants, and in 5 of their last 6. The under has hit only twice in the last 6 for the 49ers, but they’ve allowed an average of just 19 points per game in that span, so the over has hit strictly because the opposing defenses could not compete.
