3-0! 3-0! 3-0! For +2.34 units on the night! Let’s look to run it back tonight!
NBA:
7:00 EST
Pacers / Bucks Under (257.5)
You guys know I love taking overs and focusing on the maximum potential of teams and players based on matchups but I’m fading this historically high over under tonight.
257.5 is A LOT of points for an NBA game
I know both offenses can light up the scoreboard but 3 of their 4 head to head matchups have gone under 257.5 this season with the average coming in at 249.5.
Their most recent head to head matchup was on Monday when they finished with 235 total points - 22 points short of where the line is set for tonight.
Give me the under.
7:30 EST
Thunder (-110)
The Thunder stay red hot with a win over the Celtics last night and they have now won 8 of their last 9 which has them sitting in 2nd place for the Western Conference.
They will go on the road to face the Hawks tonight who have lost 4 of their last 5 AND they ALMOST lost to the 6-26 Wizards.
The second night of back to backs haven’t been a problem for the young Thunder, they’ve gone 3-0 in those games with 2 of those wins coming by 43 and 12.
The Thunder won the first game against the Hawks 126-117 and I like them to beat them again tonight.
9:00 EST
Clippers (-166)
I know it’s a juicy one but I’d rather not worry about the points for this one since we are getting good value on the other plays.
Kevin Durant is OUT of this game for the Suns so take him and his 29.9 ppg out of this matchup and the Clippers look pretty good to win this one outright.
The Clippers got Kawhi back from his hip injury in their last game when they blew out the Heat 121-104.
The Suns seem like they just keep shuffling pieces in and out of the lineup with Durant, Booker, and Beal. It’s been tough for them to get any consistency because of that.
The Clippers are hotter (8-2 L 10 vs 5-5 L 10) and they are healthier right now so let’s take them to win tonight. You can play it to win 1 unit if you’re bothered by the -166.
