NBA Tips 23/2
There looks to be some value out there in the NBA today and we’ll be making a couple of plays. There are three games which take our fancy, so check out our tips below. If you want to place a bet, then be sure to register an account with Sportsbet, where you can claim a $300 Free Bet.
Chicago Bulls @ Washington Wizards
We’ll start with Chicago against the spread on their road trip to the new look Wizards. Both these sides were active in trade week and we believe the Bulls have strengthened their squad thanks to the addition of Hakim Warrick and Flip Murray. Casting an eye over the stats we see Chicago are 8-2 against the spread in their last ten road matches, while they have won 4 of their last 5 against the Wizards. Couple that with the fact Chicago have won 6 of their past 7 overall, beating the spread in 6 of those 7. They have been averaging 108 pts a game in their last five compared to that of 100 for the Wizards. Take Chicago -2.5 at $1.91 with Sportsbet.
Charlotte Bobcats @ LA Clippers
The Bobcats look a good proposition in their trip the Los Angeles. A quick look at the history shows Charlotte have won their past four games against the Clippers by an average of 9.5 pts, including wins in their past two trips here. Charlotte went from one extreme to the next last week by losing to the bottom team New Jersey, then following that up with a win against top side Cleveland ending their 13 game winning run. It’s hard to know which Bobcats side you’re going to get, but we’re predicting it will be the one that can beat any outfit on it’s day. Look at taking Charlotte -3.5 at $1.91 with Sportsbet.
Indiana Pacers @ Dallas Mavericks
We like the home side in this clash. They are taking on their whipping boys the Indiana Pacers, a team they have beaten in 8 of their last 9 attempts by an average winning margin of 12 points. The Mavs have been a bit sluggish over the last month or so, but look to have eased their troubles by winning their past three against decent opposition in Phoenix, Orlando and Miami. Star Dirk Nowitzki has solid support on the offensive end from the likes of Caron Butler and Jason Kidd and they will give the Pacers plenty of trouble here, particularly given their main scorer Danny Granger will miss the match. Without Granger, the Pacers will struggle to hit high numbers. We suggest taking Dallas -9.5 at $1.91 with Sportsbet.
