There’s NBA action to look forward to on Friday morning, and as usual, has prepared his betting tips for three matches. Feel free to add his tips to your bet slip.
24 Mar 01:00 New York Knicks v Orlando Magic
The Knicks will be playing back-to-back here after an intense game against the Heat. Now here some of the Knicks players will be tired and I foresee a lot of forced shots. The Knicks will force this game to be a slow-paced one, and both teams are already bottom in pace. The under is the bet to go for here.
24 Mar 02:00 New Orleans Pelicans v Charlotte Hornets
Here we have to go with the team that has more to play for, and that is the Pelicans. The Pelicans are 11th in the west and this is a game they have to win for their post-season contentions. The West is close and a difficult conference, and if you look at the Pelicans’ next fixtures this is the easiest fixture for them. They’ve won their last two games against teams with nothing to play for and the same fate will fall here.
24 Mar 04:30 LA Clippers v Oklahoma City Thunder
The previous game between these two was a really poor shooting game, with the Clippers only making 6 3-point FG from 31 attempts while the Thunder made 10 3-point FG from 37 attempts. But what really helped OKC is how well they shot their free throws, while the Clippers were poor with a 57.1% conversion rate. Paul George got injured in that game and they really need him for this game, Westbrook plays well with Paul George. OKC has been the best underdog to bet on the entire NBA season and I pick them here yet again. In their last 5 against the Clippers, they’ve won 4 games, and in their last 5 away games, they’ve covered the spread 3 times. Take OKC here with a spread.
