NBA Sides Season Record: 31-24-5 (+6.21 Units) — Betting 1 Unit to Win X
11:00am cst: Milwaukee Bucks -3.5 vs. New York Knicks; Total 242
The Bucks are on fire right now and they have the Knicks’ number. I am going to stick with the Bucks instead of bucking the trend (pun intended).
Pick: Bucks -3.5 (-110) [via DraftKings]
1:40pm cst: Golden State Warriors vs. Denver Nuggets -7; Total 235
The Warriors have been slowly getting themselves back into winning shape as they are on a five game winning streak. Not against the best competition but they are still taking care of business. This just might be too many points for Denver to be laying against a game Golden State team. I’ll take the points here as I feel the spread should be around 4 points.
Pick: Warriors +7 (-108) [via DraftKings]
4:00pm cst: Boston Celtics -3.5 vs. Los Angeles Lakers; Total 234.5
The Lakers could not be colder since the In-Season Tournament. I mean these guys are ice cold. I do not think they will be catching the Celtics today in this one. I have to continue to fade LA and back the Celtics in a “rivalry” game. This would be the day LeBron and the Lakers wake up but I am not betting on it.
Pick: Celtics -3.5 (-112) [via DraftKings]
7:00pm cst: Philadelphia 76ers vs. Miami Heat -3; Total 226
Joel Embiid will be OUT today for Philly but that is not why I like the Heat today. Miami has been playing strong even when injured. They should be at full health unless Jimmy Butler is a late scratch. The Heat have the 76ers number lately and I want to back this surging Heat team. It would be a different spread if Embiid were in but I would have still been taking Miami. They should have the stronger rebounding. They will need to play defense because the Sixers guards like to run with Embiid off the floor.
Pick: Heat -3 (-105) [via DraftKings]
9:30pm cst: Dallas Mavericks vs. Phoenix Suns -4.5; Total 238.5
The Suns have been struggling as of late. The Mavericks on the other hand were hot but have cooled off some. The Mavericks have had the Suns’ number and Luka loves to play in Phoenix. I do not think the Suns have gotten over that playoff massacre and it still haunts them. Too many points in this one. Give me Dallas and I think they win this game as well.
Pick: Mavericks +4.5 (-112) [via DraftKings]
