Toronto Raptors (15-41) at Charlotte Bobcats (24-32)

Where: Time Warner Cable Arena, Charlotte, North Carolina

When: 7:00 pm EST

NBA Odds: Charlotte -7

Analysis: The Raptors are 0 and 6 against the NBA odds spread in their last 6 games overall. Not only that, but Toronto is also 1 and 7 ATS in the last 8 meetings between these two teams. Charlotte is 0 and 4 ATS in their last 4 games as the favorite, but they’re also 8 and 3 ATS in their last 11 games versus a team with a losing straight up record. The Bobcats should roll over the horrible Toronto Raptors on Tuesday night.

Indiana Pacers (24-30) at Washington Wizards (15-39)

Where: Verizon Center, Washington, District of Columbia

When: 7:00 pm EST

Fair NBA Odds: Indiana -5 ½

Analysis: The Wizards are 1 and 4 against the NBA betting spread in their last 5 home games. Indiana is 2 and 6 ATS in their last 8 meetings versus Washington but I put more stock into the trend that says that the Pacers are 4 and 1 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss. I just don’t see how Washington is going to keep this one close because Indiana averages close to 100 points per game while Washington is scoring a little over 96 per contest and giving up a ridiculous 103.1 points per game. That’s the average that the Wizards give up. The average…

Houston Rockets (26-31) at Detroit Pistons (21-36

Where: The Palace of Auburn Hills, Auburn Hills, Michigan

When: 7:30 pm EST

NBA Odds: Houston -2

Analysis: It’s hard to make an NBA bet on the total in this game since the total is 202 ½ and these two teams should fight to an over, but didn’t the last time they met in a 97 to 83 Houston victory. The strongest trends in this game point to the Rockets covering. Houston is 7 and 2 ATS in their last 9 road games versus a team with a losing straight up home record and 5 and 1 ATS in their last 6 games on the road. Detroit is 1 and 4 ATS in their last 5 home games. Roll with the Rockets is what I say.
