March 9, 2009
NBA Sports Betting Action – Sunday Four-Pack of NBA Free Picks
BetOnline NBA sports betting fanatics know that another Sunday means more thrilling NBA basketball action to wager on in the BetOnline Sportsbook.
As is my weekly custom, this NBA ‘Four-Pack’ is designed to provide BetOnline NBA sports betting fanatics with the maximum potential to make four winning wagers on today’s matchups.
Here then, is a brief look at each contest, followed by my in-depth analysis and NBA Free Picks.
Orlando at Boston
Analysis: The Magic hit the road in this contest to take on the Boston Celtics who should be favored at home by approximately three points. These two teams have split the ATS outcome over their last 10 meetings, but the Celtics have won two straight against Orlando while covering the spread in four straight and should be able to make it five in a row in this contest despite not having Kevin Garnett in the lineup.
Boston 97 Orlando 93
Utah at Toronto
Analysis: I’ll keep this pick short and sweet by letting my beloved BetOnline NBA sports betting backers know that the Utah Jazz have won seven consecutive games in this series while covering the spread in four straight games. Despite being on the road in this matchup, I like the Jazz to handle the underachieving Raptors fairly handily as they have beaten Toronto by a minimum of four points in each of their last seven wins with wins of 27, 17, 13 and 15 points thrown in for good measure. If this point spread doesn’t top 6 points, I say take the Jazz to cover.
Utah 104 Toronto 98
Phoenix at San Antonio
Analysis: The San Antonio Spurs have won two consecutive games in this series, but the Suns have covered the spread in two of the last three meetings. While I like San Antonio to win this matchup against a Suns team that is playing absolutely no defense whatsoever lately, I don’t see a huge rout by any means with the Spurs struggling themselves.
If this point spread doesn’t go over four points, which I don’t think it will, I say take the Spurs to cover. Anything more than four points, and the Suns cover.
San Antonio 103 Phoenix 100
New York at New Jersey
Analysis: The last three meetings between these two ballclubs have each featured points spread of 7 or 7½ points with the road team covering the spread in two of those meetings. These two teams are very evenly matched and will almost assuredly have a narrow finish between them. I expect the Nets to be favored in this contest by approximately 2 or 3 points at the most and I think they get the cover over the no-defense Knicks,
If the spread surpasses 3 points, I say the Knicks get the cover.
New Jersey 114 New York 111
