Todays NBA Tips

Seven games in the NBA today, but only a couple take my eye. I’m looking at Detroit who appear way over the odds at $3.00 to beat Charlotte in Charlotte at $1.42. These two sides have met regularly over the past several year’s, with the Pistons winning 7 of 8 of 9 since January 2007. The most recent being a 98-75 win only five weeks ago.

Both sides are in poor form, but Detroit will be looking to return to the form that saw them win 5 straight games earlier this month. I think they can do so here, they showed plenty of grit in their last match, keeping title favourites the Lakers to only 10 points in the last quarter. Be sure to check out Detroit to win at $3.00, if take the +5.5 spread for added confidence.

There is not much else I like today, maybe Indiana +14.5 at $1.92 against Boston. The Pacers have covered the spread in their last three against the Celtics and actually beat them by 9 points only five weeks back. The 14.5 spread looks tough for the Celtics to cover. Also, Golden State looks a bit better than the $3.90 being offered at Centrebet, having already beat the Grizzlies last month, and having a win record of 7 of their last 10 over the Grizzlies. The line looks a safe option here, take Golden State +7.5 at $1.92.
