NBA Pick: Oklahoma City Thunder @ Sacramento Kings
February 9, 2012
NBA Betting

Western Conference rivals meet in the last game on the NBA betting rotation schedule on Thursday night, as the Oklahoma City Thunder look to best the Sacramento Kings. The Thunder just refuse to let this road trip get the best of them. In spite of the fact that they trailed both the Portland Trail Blazers and the Golden State Warriors in back to back nights, the Thunder were able to find ways to pull out victories at the end of very tight games.

NBA Betting Picks

It’s “Showtime” for sure in NBA betting action on TNT on Thursday night, and the Los Angeles Lakers are going to take their show on the road to Beantown in a fight with their old rivals, the Boston Celtics. Things really just aren’t right for the Lake Show right now. They have dropped back to back games on the road, and they are just 3-9 ATS now on the season as guests. Kobe Bryant is doing his thing, and he became the fifth leading scorer in NBA history on Monday night.

NBA Free Pick

After suffering just their second loss of the season at home, the Portland Trail Blazers will look to get back on track with NBA betting action on Wednesday night against the Houston Rockets. The Rockets are very quietly 14-11 this year, and they are right in the thick of the playoff race in the Western Conference. They haven’t played the most difficult schedule in the world, and they have had some inconsistent results at times,

NBA Pick: New York Knicks @ Washington Wizards
February 8, 2012
NBA Pick

The Washington Wizards are playing at least remotely better ball right now, and they are going to try to beat the NBA odds against the New York Knicks at the Verizon Center on Wednesday night. New York was able to take down the Utah Jazz on Monday night to get to its 10th win of the season. The team is still in a bad place though, competing for the bottom playoff spots in the lowly Eastern Conference.

Just one night after picking up a huge win at the Rose Garden, the Oklahoma City Thunder have to go back on the road on Tuesday night in NBA betting action against the Golden State Warriors.

NBA Pick

The Utah Jazz continue their East Coast swing on Tuesday night when they duke it out on the NBA odds against the Indiana Pacers at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

Chicago Bulls @ New York Knicks Pick
February 2, 2012
Free NBA Pick

Two of the big market teams that are hoping to make a run at the NBA title this year duke it out on the Thursday night basketball odds on TNT when the Chicago Bulls visit the New York Knicks. The hope for the Bulls is that this is the night that Luol Deng gets back in the lineup. He has been listed as questionable for a number of games with a hand injury, and Head Coach Tom Thibodeau has taken things very slowly with the former Duke Blue Devil, giving him as much time as he needs to get back to full strength.

Houston vs. Phoenix
The Phoenix Suns are catching fire of late. I'll gladly back them as a small 3-point home favorite over the Houston Rockets tonight. Steve Nash has carried the Suns to three straight wins, including two on the road against Atlanta and Milwaukee.

Houston is having a solid year at 15-11 this season. But the Rockets are way overvalued tonight due to back-to-back impressive road wins at Denver and at Portland. This sets them up for a big letdown spot tonight. Houston will also be tired as this is the second of a back-to-back and their 3rd game in 4 days.

Phoenix has won seven of their last nine meetings with Houston in this series. The Rockets are 7-22 ATS in their last 29 meetings with the Suns, so this has clearly been an unfavorable match-up for them. Phoenix has won four straight home meetings over Houston.

The Rockets are likely going to be without starting PG Kyle Lowry (arm) after he suffered an injury last night against Houston. Lowry is a huge part of this team, averaging 14.8 points, 7.9 assists and 5.8 rebounds. The Rockets are 5-8 on the road this season, and 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games as a road underdog. Bet Phoenix Thursday.
