3-1 YDAY, but still cold (frigid frostbite cold) this week. Anyways, here's my insight for the games.
LAKERS+3.5 First off, let me say I am a celtics fan and I don't usually bet against them, but when I see value, I strike at the moment. Boston has won 9 of 10 games and covered 6 of those 10, but most were against less than stellar teams (excluding Memphis and Indiana and I suppose, Orlando). Lakers on the other hand, had a very tough schedule concerning their last ten, but this game has the most meaning in my opinion. The rivalry of course comes into play here and I can see them winning this one outright and getting back into the win column. I also take into account that they've lost their last two and looking to bounce back. But do take note that the suck on the road, but as strange as it sounds, I look at that as a value factor for just this game in particular.
NUGGETS-6 Head to head, the nuggets has the warriors number. The only thing that concerns me about this pick is that with gallinari being out, it should raise concerns for points on board. After losing last night to Dallas at their home turf and going 0-4 last four ats and straight up, I will take that into account that they can't and won't lose a fifth time. Golden state has tired legs from their battle with Thunder and I feel nuggets will adjust into a better flow and will pull the cover and win without one of their star players. Ill call this one and say nuggets win by double digits.
KINGS+7 Wow... The kings are a covering machine right now and I will ride them against the thunder. Like I mentioned above, I will gladly take into account the tired legs from that over time game against the warriors for this one. If you look at the kings home games, they actually keep the games fairly close and have pulled away upsets against above .500 teams. Now don't get me wrong here, I don't think that they'll win the game, but I'm riding that they'll cover the number. It would shock me if they did beat okc outright. Ain't gonna lie there. And besides, it seems to me that the kings have been stepping up their game and getting their shit together.
Good luck everyone.
