What’s up, all!
I always give out free picks on the Bet US NBA show Mon-Wed at 2:30 so check me out there if I don’t offer much here the next 2 weeks. Let’s get to our few picks today:
Hornets/Kings 1H O119.5 (-110), to win 1.5 units
Parlay: 1H O119.5 + Kings 1H -5.5 (+240), to win 1.2 units
I don’t see how this doesn’t go over. The Hornets don’t play defense, they’re off a back to back, even worse. Scary Terry only played 19 min last night so he should bring some juice/speed for Charlotte, while the Kings are back in-rhythm in a comfy spot at home where they can blow anyone out. I don’t see how Charlotte, a team I can’t play on right now, can keep up. They’re too undisciplined right now.
Bucks -1 (-110), to win 1 unit
The Pels are playing some sloppy basketball right now, committing 57 fouls in their last 2 games. They can’t do that against the Bucks, who draw the 2nd most fouls in the NBA (over 18 per game) and will continuously drive to the basket at will on you. The Pelicans are a great team but they’re slumping right now and the Bucks will take pride in showing little brother how to play proper basketball tonight. Love Giannis to win battles against Zion, too.
Leans:
Cavs -6: Jazz on a back to back tomorrow but CLE has some big lookahead games this week. CLE is the better team, by far, and I like how they matchup. They’re also 11-4-1 ATS at home. Lookaheads have me off it.
Blazers -7.5: Everyone’s out for OKC but this could be one of those games where weird shit happens. They’re still at home and just beat Memphis with a shallow roster, so I’m off it.
