NBA Picks

The Indiana Pacers head to Cleveland where bookmakers have installed them as +8 underdogs. The team has been inconsistent at best. Can they cover the number at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse? Get our Ind/Cle pick here!

“Life without Steph” starts for the Warriors Friday in Philly as the Golden State comes in as +8 underdogs. See how we’re betting the GSW/Phil game here!

These two teams have had opposite results of late. The Sixers are coming off two straight wins and the Kings two losses. Philly is rested and hasn’t played since Tuesday while the Kings lost to the Celtics last night. But are these obvious betting factors enough to justify the Sixers as 9.5 point favorites at most sportsbooks? Keith Franks has your pick.

Boston was able to utilize the Stan Van Gundy “FORM A ****ING WALL!” defense last year against both Antetokounmpo and Ben Simmons, and there’s no doubt that Coach Spo has mimicked the strategy. If they can control the pace while somewhat limiting Giannis in the paint, the Heat do have a chance at the underdog cover here. But are the odds good enough at +5? KC has your NBA pick.

The Celtics have won the last three games versus the Sacramento Kings. The Kings and Celtics last met in March in SacTown where the Kings fell to the Celtics by a score of 111-109. Is Boston’s 3 game win streak a sign that a new Cs team is upon us? Keith breaks down the game and gives his basketball pick!

Lebron James owns the Raptors. He’s 22-6 in the regular season and 10-2 in playoffs. But it was Serge Ibaka who gave a Lebron-style whooping on the Lake Show with 34 & 10 at 88% FG% & 3-3 FT in last meeting. Ibaka is suspended tonight & LA is still getting 10 points at most sportsbooks. Is this a betable angle for Lakers backers? KC gives his NBA prediction.
