Tonight’s 5 Games Picks Tonight
Sacramento @ Orlando
Points +/- Rank
TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
Sacramento | 100.8 | 102.6 | -1.8 |
Orlando | 95.0 | 105.5 | -10.5 |
The Say
The Magic got their first win against the winless 76ers and it took a Serge Ibaka set of free throws to get them over the line, not impressive. The Kings are playing better and have been unlucky on the road against the Hawks and Heat. Maybe tonight they could get that road win.
Best Bet: Sacramento +7.5 @1.48
Feeling Lucky: Sacramento WIN @2.00
Indiana @ Milwaukee
Points +/- Rank
TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
Indiana | 110.0 | 112.5 | -2.5 |
Milwaukee | 101.5 | 106.5 | -5.0 |
The Say
Both Indiana and Milwaukee have been early disappointments this year, with the Pacers having a negative record on the road. Could be a PG13 vs Greek Freak showdown that makes the difference. Too hard to split based on form, we are giving the Pacers another chance.
Best Bet: Indiana +9.5 @1.20
Feeling Lucky: Indiana WIN @1.72
Denver @ Minnesota
Points +/- Rank
TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
Denver | 107.3 | 107.3 | 0.0 |
Minnesota | 105.7 | 96.0 | +9.7 |
The Say
This is a genuine 50/50 contest against two of the youngest and up and coming teams. The Wolves were able to hit their groove against an undermanned Memphis unit last out while the Nuggets no matter what will never go away in a contest. Expect a close contest with the big men for both teams to be the keys.
Best Bet: Minnesota WIN @1.55
Feeling Lucky: Minnesota 1-10 @2.80
Boston @ Cleveland
Points +/- Rank
TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
Boston | 108.0 | 105.0 | +3.0 |
Cleveland | 111.0 | 99.5 | +11.5 |
The Say
Lebron is doing what he does in 2016/17, averaging 20.5 ppg, 9.5 rpg and 9.5 apg, with the Cavs remaining unbeaten. The Celtics have been looking pretty good themselves, and the return of Marcus Smart can only strengthen them going forward.
In Cleveland tonight, with a day’s break, Bron’s boys will get the job done.
Best Bet: Total points over 208.0 @1.91
Feeling Lucky: Cleveland 11+ @1.99
OKC @ Golden State
Points +/- Rank
TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
Golden State | 113.8 | 111.8 | +2.0 |
Oklahoma City | 103.5 | 96.5 | +7.0 |
The Say
OKC surprised us last night with a victory over the Clippers at Staples, remaining among the select group of undefeated teams in 2016/17. This streak is down to one man, Russell Westbrook, who is averaging 37.8 points, 10.5 rebounds and 10.0 assists over OKC’s first four games. Those are some manly numbers.
Golden State pulled their shit together last time out against the Blazers in a 127-104 win, and if they could start protecting the rim, it could be a nightly double figure victory norm for the Warriors.
The Warriors will win tonight, by double figures with a day’s break at home. Not even Russell can stop this one……right?
Best Bet: Golden State -11.0 @1.91
Feeling Lucky: Nope.
