Tonight’s 9 Games:
New Orleans @ LA Clippers
Points +/- Rank
| RK | TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
| 25 | New Orleans | 101.0 | 105.7 | -4.7 |
| 6 | LA Clippers | 103.6 | 100.0 | +3.6 |
Picks against the spread
The Say
The Clips are on a tear without Blake winning their last 8 and we don’t see the Pelicans getting in their way tonight. AD could miss after a back complaint from commando rolling into the first row against the Pacers. If that’s the case, Clippers easy.
Best Bet: LA Clippers WIN @1.34
Feeling Lucky: LA Clippers -7 @1.91
Dallas @ Minnesota
Points +/- Rank
| RK | TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
| 14 | Dallas | 101.7 | 101.1 | +0.6 |
| 24 | Minnesota | 98.9 | 102.8 | -3.9 |
Picks against the spread
The Say
Dallas came up short against the Bucks and hit the road to Minny tonight. The Wolves are 1-9 in their last 10 and apart from Philly have the worst record at home. This will be a good steadier for the Mavs.
Best Bet: Dallas WIN @1.56
Feeling Lucky: Dallas -7 @2.13
Cleveland @ Philadelphia
Points +/- Rank
| RK | TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
| 4 | Cleveland | 101.8 | 95.4 | =+6.4 |
| 30 | Philadelphia | 93.1 | 105.3 | -12.2 |
Picks against the spread
The Say
The margin of the Cavs win will depend on who gets rested. So aim high but not too high, the line should be good enough.
Best Bet: Cleveland -8.5 @1.24
Feeling Lucky: Cleveland -17.5 @2.34
Boston @ Memphis
Points +/- Rank
| RK | TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
| 8 | Boston | 102.4 | 99.0 | +3.4 |
| 21 | Memphis | 95.8 | 98.6 | -2.8 |
Picks against the spread
The Say
Conley missed the last game and could be doubtful for tonight. The Celtics travel OK being 1 or 4 teams in the East having a positive away record, however, have missed a beat with Bradley going down. With these games we like the home team but would be better to pass and go for a better option.
Best Bet: Memphis +7.5 @1.34
Feeling Lucky: Boston 1-10 @2.70
Indiana @ Houston
Points +/- Rank
| RK | TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
| 5 | Indiana | 101.9 | 98.0 | +3.9 |
| 18 | Houston | 103.9 | 105.5 | -1.6 |
Picks against the spread
The Say
The status of Dwight Howard is up in the air these days but is expected to face the Pacers tonight along with Lawson. PG13 is going through form slump and will need to break it tonight to give the Pacers any chance. Houston took both games last season, although they are both two different teams now. Houston to just get over the line at home.
Best Bet: Over 196.5 @1.32
Feeling Lucky: Indiana 1-10 @2.72
Milwaukee @ New York
Points +/- Rank
| RK | TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
| 26 | Milwaukee | 97.9 | 103.7 | -5.8 |
| 17 | New York | 98.2 | 99.4 | -1.2 |
Picks against the spread
The Say
The Knicks were a few inches away from giving the Spurs their first loss at home. This will be the fourth time these two have played each other with the Bucks holding the advantage 2-1. Not forgetting the Knicks have won 7 of their last 9 at home. Another coin toss here with the Knicks for tails.
Best Bet: New York WIN @1.49
Feeling Lucky: New York 1-10 @2.35
Charlotte @ Denver
Points +/- Rank
| RK | TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
| 13 | Charlotte | 101.3 | 100.6 | +0.7 |
| 25 | Denver | 98.4 | 103.1 | -4.7 |
Picks against the spread
The Say
Another tough game to pick. Both teams are 2-8 from their last 10 so are desperate for a win. High altitude in Denver always is a psychological advantage.
Best Bet: Denver WIN @1.78
Feeling Lucky: Denver 1-10
Oklahoma @ Portland
Points +/- Rank
| RK | TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
| 3 | Oklahoma | 108.9 | 100.8 | +8.1 |
| 19 | Portland | 100.9 | 102.9 | -2.0 |
Picks against the spread
The Say
The is the one game we are semi confident about. Thunder to maintain their strong play with a fit Durant and Russ to be too good for the Lillard Blazers.
Best Bet: Oklahoma WIN @1.29
Feeling Lucky: Oklahoma 1-10 @2.40
Utah @ LA Lakers
Points +/- Rank
| RK | TEAM | OWN | OPP | DIFF |
| 16 | Utah | 96.7 | 97.3 | -0.6 |
| 29 | LA Lakers | 97.3 | 106.4 | -9.1 |
Picks against the spread
The Say
Lakers are hosting the Jazz who are coming off a somewhat easy win at home against the Heat. We aren’t surprised by that considering how the Heat don’t like the travel West. Favors could be back for the Jazz while the Lakers would be hoping Lou Williams remains hot from Friday’s 44 point outburst.
