Tonight’s 9 NBA Tips

Houston @ Cleveland

Points +/- Rank

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Houston 104.3 103.3 +1.0
Cleveland 105.3 92.7 +12.6

The Say

Two Superstars going head to head and may walk away with a triple double each. A lot of threes will be put up but we like the Cavs to hold the Rockets fast scoring down. On the flipside, we aren’t confident with the -9.0 line.

Best Bet: Cleveland WIN @1.20

Feeling Lucky: Cleveland 1-10 @2.60


Orlando @ Philadelphia

Points +/- Rank

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Orlando 92.3 107.0 -14.7
Philadelphia 84.5 103.5 -19.0

The Say

Okafor joins Simmons and Noel on the bench for rest that leaves the 76ers with only Embiid left for the game from the “Process” era. Good chance for the Magic to get their first win.

Best Bet: Orlando WIN @1.46

Feeling Lucky: Orlando -5.5 @1.96


LA Lakers @ Indiana

Points +/- Rank

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
LA Lakers 101.7 107.7 -6.0
Indiana 108.3 114.0 -5.7

The Say

The Pacers need a win bad and it should come tonight against the young Lakers who are still on the road. LA were able to match the Thunder for three quarters before getting blown away in the last. Indiana need a confidence builder and some defense, letting in on average 114 points per game. If the Lakers were coming off a win and not on a road trip, we would of gone with them for the spread.

Best Bet: Under 221.5 @1.48

Feeling Lucky: Indiana 11+ @2.00


Sacramento @ Miami

Points +/- Rank

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Sacramento 102.0 101.3 +0.7
Miami 99.3 99.7 -0.4

The Say

After just falling short to the Hawks, the Kings have a good chance to go one better tonight, although they are on the second night of a back to back. We like them but a fresh young Miami team could get the better of them at home.

Best Bet: Sacramento +8.5 @1.47

Feeling Lucky: Sacramento WIN @2.38


New York @ Detroit

Points +/- Rank

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
New York 99.5 110.5 -11.0
Detroit 99.0 91.3 +7.7

The Say

The New Look Knicks got their first win against the Grizzlies and we like them again tonight. Detroit are hard to beat at home but their form may be a little inflated since wins against the Bucks and Magic. New York on paper have the better line up and have a chance to upset.

Best Bet: New York +8.5 @1.49

Feeling Lucky: New York WIN @2.54


Milwaukee @ New Orleans

Points +/- Rank

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
New Orleans 98.3 109.0 -10.7
Milwaukee 96.3 104.3 -8.0

The Say

Both teams are looking like poison to pick here so stay away for this one. The one good tip of the night for this is anything to do with Anthony Davis, so take him to score 30+ and Pelicans to win, just for shits and giggles.

Best Bet: Nope.

Feeling Lucky: Anthony Davis 30+ Pts/New Orleans To Win


Memphis @ Minnesota

Points +/- Rank

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Memphis 106.0 104.0 +2.0
Minnesota 100.5 104.0 -3.5

The Say

Both teams had had a couple of days rest which makes the nice line of +5.0 in the way of Memphis look nice here. Rubio is listed OUT for the Wolves, while Allen is OUT for the Grizzlies. Take the line here for Memphis. Vinsanity has this on lock…. 😉

Best Bet: Memphis +5.0 @1.91

Feeling Lucky: Memphis WIN @2.73.


Utah @ San Antonio

Points +/- Rank

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Utah 91.7 96.7 -5.0
San Antonio 108.8 93.0 +15.8

The Say

The Spurs are 4-0 and already playing the rest card for the vets. Kawhi is in beast mode, and at home against the Jazz Pop’s boys will be too good. Get on board the Spurs at home at -10.5 without batting an eye. 

Best Bet: San Antonio -10.5 @1.91

Feeling Lucky: Nope.


Golden State @ Portland

Points +/- Rank

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Golden State 109.3 114.3 -5.0
Portland 111.3 110.3 +1.0

The Say

Even as “poorly” as the Warriors are playing right now, this line is thin enough for us. If only they could start protecting the rim and pulling in a few rebounds just for giggles, we’d take anything under double figures until the cows came home. Tonight -5.0 is good enough.

Best Bet: Golden State -5.0 @1.91

Feeling Lucky: Nope.
