24.12.14 – Minnesota Timberwolves 104 @ Cleveland Cavaliers 125
14.11.13 – Cleveland Cavaliers 95 @ Minnesota Timberwolves 124

Picks –

LeBron has done way over his best to deflect attention away from the Cavs recent form in firing back at Barkley, but back on the court, the Cavs need a win. A home record of 21-5 speaks enough.

Best Bet: Cleveland WIN @1.34 (-294)

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Over 213.0 @1.91 (-110)


Indiana @ Orlando

22.02.16 – Indiana Pacers 105 @ Orlando Magic 102
07.01.16 – Indiana Pacers 95 @ Orlando Magic 86

Picks –

The Magic are better off on the road as their home record is terrible (equal 2nd worst in the league). The Pacers have turned their season around sitting at the 6th seed in the East, although opposite to their opponents, their road record is awful.

Best Bet: We aren’t ready to believe in the Pacers, but if you are, see below.

Feeling Lucky: Indiana WIN @1.72 (-138)


Atlanta @ Miami

01.02.16 – Atlanta Hawks 87 @ Miami Heat 105
15.12.15 – Miami Heat 100 @ Atlanta Hawks 88

Picks –

Miami have won 8 in a row now and still aren’t favorites for tonight’s game on home court. Not sure if this could be an impact but the Hawks are still coming off a 4 OT game.

Best Bet: Total Points Under 203.0 @1.91 (-110)

Feeling Lucky: Miami WIN @1.92 (+111)


New York @ Brooklyn

02.04.16 – Brooklyn Nets 91 @ New York Knicks 105
20.02.16 – New York Knicks 98 @ Brooklyn Nets 109

Picks –

The Knicks may be without Porzingis (late scratching) and Rose but came up against the red hot Wizards. On a B2B and just down the road from MSG, the Knicks still should be able to get the win against the team with the worst record in the league.

Best Bet: Like the Overs market when available

Feeling Lucky: New York Knicks WIN @1.76 (-132)


New Orleans @ Detroit

15.01.15 – New Orleans Pelicans 105 @ Detroit Pistons 94
25.01.14 – New Orleans Pelicans 103 @ Detroit Pistons 101

Picks –

The Pelicans have defeated the Pistons the last 8 times with the last ending in a 59/20 game by Davis. On a B2B after a last shot loss to the Raptors in Overtime might not help.

Best Bet: Detroit WIN @1.30 (-244)

Feeling Lucky: New Orleans +6.0 @1.91  (-110)


Toronto @ Boston

Win/Loss

TEAM HOME ROAD
Toronto 17-9 13-10

24.03.16 – Toronto Raptors 79 @ Boston Celtics 91
19.03.16 – Boston Celtics 91 @ Toronto Raptors 105
21.01.16 – Boston Celtics 109 @ Toronto Raptors 115

Picks –

It wasn’t looking good their for the Raptors last night who just escaped in OT. On a B2B in Boston likely without DeRozan isn’t what they want especially since they gave their opposition the 2nd seed. Could be the Celtics chance to take a big fish down.

Best Bet: Boston WIN @1.39 (-256)

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Over 215.0 @1.91 (-110)


Philadelphia @ Dallas

14.11.14 – Philadelphia 76ers 70 @ Dallas Mavericks 123
22.02.14 – Dallas Mavericks 124 @ Philadelphia 76ers 112

Picks –

Wouldn’t have thought a month ago that these two would be ‘form teams’.

This is a coin toss, leave it and move on.

Best Bet: Nope.

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Over 202.5 @1.91 (-110)


Milwaukee @ Utah

23.01.15 – Utah Jazz 101 @ Milwaukee Bucks 99
04.03.14 – Utah Jazz 88 @ Milwaukee Bucks 114

Picks –

Milwaukee have sunk the ship, having lost 8 of their last 10. Utah are still in top form despite dropping 3 of their last 4. They will pick up the slack tonight. Milwaukee road record gives little faith.

Total unders also likely following recent trends.

Best Bet: Utah WIN @1.25 (-400)

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Under 198.5 @1.91 (-110)


Memphis @ Denver

22.01.16 – Memphis Grizzlies 102 @ Denver Nuggets 101
09.01.16 – Denver Nuggets 84 @ Memphis Grizzlies 91

Picks –

The old legs of Memphis are rested, and will get over the line in Denver. Nuggets lost last night to the struggling Lakers, killing many parlays. Decent road record for the Grizzlies. Keep gettin them cheques Vince.

Best Bet: Memphis WIN @1.89 (-112)

Feeling Lucky: Memphis -1.0 @1.91 (-110)


LA Clippers @ Phoenix

Win/Loss

23.02.16 – Phoenix Suns 84 @ Los Angeles Clippers 124
13.11.15 – Los Angeles Clippers 104 @ Phoenix Suns 118

Picks –

The road trip to Phoenix won’t hurt the rested Clippers, who are enjoying life on the road with a 13-11 record. CP3 still sits, but it won’t matter.

Best Bet: LA Clippers WIN @1.56 (-178)

Feeling Lucky: LA Clippers -4.0 @191 (-110)


Chicago @ Oklahoma City

Win/Loss

TEAM HOME ROAD
Chicago 15-11 9-14
OKC 16-6 12-15

Points +/-

06.11.15 – Oklahoma City Thunder 98 @ Chicago Bulls 104
16.03.15 – Chicago Bulls 100 @ Oklahoma City Thunder 109
06.03.15 – Oklahoma City Thunder 105 @ Chicago Bulls 108

Picks –

Don’t like the Bulls on the road, but against OKC on a B2B, we’ll give them the line. Bulls have the talent to upset, if they can keep their sh#t together.

Best Bet: Chicago +4.0 @1.91 (-110)

Feeling Lucky: Chicago WIN @2.44 (+144)


Charlotte @ Golden State

Win/Loss

03.12.15 – Golden State Warriors 116 @ Charlotte Hornets 99
29.11.14 – Golden State Warriors 106 @ Charlotte Hornets 101
16.11.14 – Charlotte Hornets 87 @ Golden State Warriors 112

Picks –

Charlotte on a road trip B2B won’t challenge the rested Warriors in Golden State, especially with a, 8-16 road record. That line’s a little high but we’ll take it.

Best Bet: Golden State 11+ @1.51 (-196)

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Over 223.0 @1.91 (-110)
