Win/Loss

Points +/-

Last 5

28.03.16 – Washington Wizards 101 @ Los Angeles Lakers 88
03.12.15 – Los Angeles Lakers 108 @ Washington Wizards 104
28.01.15 – Washington Wizards 98 @ Los Angeles Lakers 92
04.12.14 – Los Angeles Lakers 95 @ Washington Wizards 111
22.03.14 – Washington Wizards 117 @ Los Angeles Lakers 107

Picks –

The Wizards have won 12 out of their last 14 games (averaging 111 points per game) and have the 2nd best home record in the East. By far the Conference’s best side since Xmas where they are a game away from the 3rd seed.

Nick Young will be firing from the arc to prove he is worthy of a place in the 3pt contest at ASW. Although, the 5 road games for the Lakers haven’t been kind resulting in loses while not breaking the 100 point barrier in any of them.

Best Bet: Washington WIN @1.14 (-715) – Very Short

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Under 219.0 @1.91 (-110)

Atlanta @ Houston

06.11.16 – Houston Rockets 97 @ Atlanta Hawks 112
20.03.16 – Houston Rockets 97 @ Atlanta Hawks 109
30.12.15 – Atlanta Hawks 121 @ Houston Rockets 115
04.03.15 – Houston Rockets 96 @ Atlanta Hawks 104
21.12.14 – Atlanta Hawks 104 @ Houston Rockets 97

Picks –

The Hawks have amazingly won the last 5 encounters against the Rockets (2 of them on the road in Texas) but tonight will be a little special for Dwight Howard as he returns to another arena where his stay was brief. Can’t say tempers will flare in similar fashion to he and Kobe, but expect the Rockets to push the pace with the Hawks coming off a B2B.

Best Bet: Houston WIN @1.19 (-526)

Feeling Lucky: Total Points Under 222.0 @1.91 (-110)

Philadelphia @ San Antonio

Win/Loss

Points +/-

08.12.15 – San Antonio Spurs 119 @ Philadelphia 76ers 68
15.11.15 – Philadelphia 76ers 83 @ San Antonio Spurs 92
02.12.14 – San Antonio Spurs 109 @ Philadelphia 76ers 103
18.11.14 – Philadelphia 76ers 75 @ San Antonio Spurs 100
25.03.14 – Philadelphia 76ers 91 @ San Antonio Spurs 113

Picks –

The home team Spurs, ranking 1st in defensive efficiency will take it, but that lines a little high, and the H2H odds are a little skinny @1.04 (-2500). We’ll take the Total Unders here, with the 76ers yet very rarely blown out in a loss.

The Spurs have lost 6 of their 11 games this season to sub .500 teams. Monkey on the back?

Best Bet: Total Points Under 209.5 @1.91 (-110)

Feeling Lucky: Philadelphia +14.0 @1.91 (-110) or San Antonio 1-10 @3.16 (+212)

Golden State @ LA Clippers

29.01.17 – Los Angeles Clippers 98 @ Golden State Warriors 144
08.12.16 – Golden State Warriors 115 @ Los Angeles Clippers 98
24.03.16 – Los Angeles Clippers 98 @ Golden State Warriors 114
21.02.16 – Golden State Warriors 115 @ Los Angeles Clippers 112
20.11.15 – Golden State Warriors 124 @ Los Angeles Clippers 117

Picks –

Just 3 days ago the Warriors gave the Clippers one of the all time great thumpings in a 144-98 win. That’s 46 points people.

They both played last night, with the Clippers the ones doing the travelling this time around. The Warriors to break the line, and the scorers table to be asking for a raise after the game.

The Warriors have taken the last eight straight over the Clippers.

Best Bet: Total Points Over 224.5 @1.91 (-110)

Feeling Lucky: Golden State -8.5 @1.91 (-110) or Golden State Warriors 11+ @2.22 (+122)
