NBA betting tips basketball

Tonight’s NBA betting predictions

Washington @ Indiana

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Washington 105.3 106.4 -1.1
Indiana 104.2 105.9 -1.7

Picks –

Best Bet: Indiana WIN @1.44 – We arent the best fans of the Pacers this season for tips but getting the Wizards at home on a B2B bodes well for them.

Feeling Lucky: Over 212.0 @1.91


Detroit @ Chicago

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Detroit 98.9 96.9 +2.0
Chicago 101.1 100.0 +1.1

Picks –

Best Bet: Over 181.5 @1.22 – No favourites here, like some higher scoring though.

Feeling Lucky: Detroit WIN @2.25 – Both teams are in a free fall, we like the underdog with the good record against their cross state rivals.


Atlanta @ Oklahoma City

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Oklahoma City 105.9 104.7 +1.2
Atlanta 102.4 104.2 -1.8

Picks –

Best Bet: Oklahoma -2.5 @1.91 – OKC are 7-3 over their last 10, while Atlanta are 3-7. At home Russ and the boys should take care of business. The Thunder are 11-5 at home, while Atlanta are 6-8 away.

Feeling Lucky: Nope – Take the above. The Hawks have the talent to overturn this one, so the best bet is lucky enough. Oladipo likely to sit again for OKC.


Phoenix @ Minnesota

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Phoenix 106.3 113 -6.7
Minnesota 103.9 106.9 -3.0

Picks –

Best Bet: Total Points Over 214.0 @1.91 – Both teams are in some horrid form, but one thing is for sure, over their last 10 games they’ve managed to score and be score on. Forget about their last 2 low scoring encounters against one another. Overs here.

Feeling Lucky: Nope – Take the above. Not a lot of trust in either for a victory here.


Dallas @ Denver

TEAM OWN OPP DIFF
Denver 107.4 109.4 -2.0
Dallas 93.7 99.6 -5.9

Picks –

Best Bet: Denver -8.5 @1.91 – Just a week ago the Mavs handed Denver a 20 point hiding. This time around we’re tipping that will be reversed, with the Nuggets at home on a day’s break, and with the Mavs still without Bogut, Dirk and JJ Barea.

Feeling Lucky: Denver 1-10 @2.46 – Could be closer than the above suggests.
