27.12.16 – Charlotte Hornets 118 @ Brooklyn Nets 120

09.04.16 – Brooklyn Nets 99 @ Charlotte Hornets 113
23.03.16 – Charlotte Hornets 105 @ Brooklyn Nets 100
Picks –
The Nets current 10 game losing streak began with a loss at Charlotte and its likely to continue with another visit tonight. The Nets have struggled on the offensive end lately averaging 95 points per game in their last 4. It may sound like we are heavily on the Hornets bandwagon here, but they too have a losing streak of 7 games that began the game after defeating the Nets. Its like these two teams are meant to be.
Best Bet: Charlotte WIN @1.16 (-625)
Feeling Lucky: Total Points Under 217.0 @1.91 (-110)

07.01.17 – Houston Rockets 100 @ Orlando Magic 93
24.12.15 – Houston Rockets 101 @ Orlando Magic 104
05.11.15 – Orlando Magic 114 @ Houston Rockets 119 – OT
18.03.15 – Orlando Magic 94 @ Houston Rockets 107
15.01.15 – Houston Rockets 113 @ Orlando Magic 120
Picks –
The Rockets let in on average 108 points per game (more than the 76ers), however their opponents tonight have the 2nd worst offense in the League which has steered us away from the Over and liking the chances of a showtime Houston performance. The Rockets weakness will be in the paint, but they won’t have any troubles from beyond the arc.
Best Bet: Houston -11.5 @1.95 (-105)
Feeling Lucky: Total Points Over @1.91 (-110)
Portland @ Dallas

04.02.17 – Dallas Mavericks 108 @ Portland Trail Blazers 104
22.12.16 – Dallas Mavericks 96 @ Portland Trail Blazers 95
05.11.16 – Portland Trail Blazers 105 @ Dallas Mavericks 95
24.03.16 – Dallas Mavericks 103 @ Portland Trail Blazers 109
21.03.16 – Portland Trail Blazers 120 @ Dallas Mavericks 132 – OT
Picks –
The return of Bogut is probable, and given the way the Mavs are performing he may actually be content enough to hang around for the rest of the season. Or maybe it will disrupt the flow, time will tell, god knows they need the rebounding.
When it comes to tonight, this is the toughest straight up H2H pick, however we lean towards the Blazers on a day’s break, with the hope that CJ and Lillard bring the goods.
Dallas won this in a close one in Portland a few days back, revenge on the cards.
Best Bet: Coin toss.
Feeling Lucky: Total Points Over 204.5 @1.91 (-110)
