Daily NBA Betting Picks – Bulls-Magic Tilt Highlights Wednesday Action
December 2, 2010
While the Chicago Bulls have steadied the ship as an Basketball betting pick throughout the early part of the season, their chances will be even greater as we get our first glimpse of Carlos Boozer as part of a team that already boasts Joakim Noah and Derrick Rose. There is no rest for the recently injured either as Chicago plays host to the Orlando Magic.
Orlando is coming off a big win over the Detroit Pistons but showed plenty of flaws en route to that victory. It sure as hell doesn’t help that they’re coming off a tough game and then have to hit the road. The Magic may be 4-1 SU in their last 5 away from home, but they’re also 0-5 ATS during that stretch.

Needless to say, this has always been a matchup dominated by Orlando. They’re 8-2 SU and 7-3 ATS when playing the Chicago Bulls in their last ten games. Derrick Rose and Noah have always needed a real banger in the paint to contend with the likes of Dwight Howard, and Boozer fits that bill.
Orlando Magic (13-4) vs. Chicago Bulls (9-6)
Wednesday, December 1st — United Center — 8:00pm EST
NBA Betting Line: Chicago -2.0 (194)
While Boozer will have a lot of basketball rust to shake off, a broken hand doesn’t slow someone down in the gym. His minutes may be limited, but he can still make a tremendous impact to a team that is already 7-3 SU in their last 10 games and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 contests.
The Bulls have been an amazing team as of late, and the added relief of Boozer on the floor will allow Derrick Rose to become more of a point man and less of a scoring go-to guard that he’s had to be in the past few games. The Bulls are a tough matchup for the Magic, who are slumping against the betting line on the road.
Take the Bulls in your NBA betting picks with Boozer sparking new life in to an already capable scoring team that plays terrific defense.

Detroit Pistons -11.5 over MIAMI HEAT
Betting against the Miami Heat continues to be a money train of epic proportions. At just 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games, the oddsmakers don’t really care if LeBron and company keep winning games because they are the worst cover team in basketball right now. It’s easy to have reservations about the Pistons, but they are coming together and are 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games overall. Their horrendous road record of 1-6 ATS in their last 7 away from home is trumped by the Heat on any occasion right now in terms of NBA betting picks on the spread.
BOSTON CELTICS -7.0 over Portland Trailblazers
Portland’s away record is downright scary. At just 3-5-2 ATS in 10 road games thus far, it seems like the wheels are falling off the Blazer bus quite quickly. Boston hasn’t been a betting darling at home by any stretch of the imagination, but they’re catching the Blazers at the right time. This is a nail biting line that will have you glued to this game until its final minutes, but the desperate Blazers will push the Celtics to the line late in the fourth to keep you treading above water with this NBA betting pick.
