Sacramento Kings (13-38) at Oklahoma City Thunder (34-19)

Where: Ford Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

When: 8:00 pm EST

NBA Betting Odds: Sacramento +9 ½

Analysis: Sacramento is 8 and 2 against the online basketball odds in their last 10 games versus a team with a winning straight up record. They’re also 8 and 3 against the spread in their last 11 contests versus the Oklahoma City Thunder in Oklahoma City.

Need more convincing? How about the fact that the Kings are 6 and 1 ATS in their last 7 road games or that they’re 6 and 2 ATS in their last 8 games overall. Finally, Oklahoma City is 1 and 4 against the spread in their last 5 games at home.

Utah Jazz (31-24) at Phoenix Suns (26-26)

Where: US Airways Center, Phoenix, Arizona

When: 9:00 pm EST

NBA Betting Odds: Phoenix -4 ½

Analysis: The Utah Jazz got thoroughly embarrassed by Phoenix on Feb. 11th. The Suns’ D held Utah to 27 total points in the second half of a 95 to 83 Phoenix victory. As -6 point home online NBA odds faves, the Jazz was supposed to put a beat down on Phoenix.

Phoenix now gets to smack Utah around in the Valley of the Sun. Utah just isn’t good enough to hang with a Suns team whose second-unit is good enough to play for long stretches of time. Phoenix needs to get on a roll in order to make the playoffs, but if they do, they can make some noise. On Tuesday night, they should have no trouble taking apart the Jazz.

New Orleans Hornets (33-23) at Golden State Warriors (24-29)

Where: Oracle Arena, Oakland, California

When: 10:30 pm EST

NBA Betting Odds: Golden State -2

Analysis: Even though the Hornets upset the Orlando Magic 99 to 93 as 8 ½ point road dogs in the NBA sportsbook on Feb. 11th, I’m not buying that New Orleans is “back” from the black hole they’ve been stuck in since late January.

New Orleans did lose 88 to 97 to the Chicago Bulls in their last game. Now, they travel to Oakland to take on a Warriors squad that is only 1 and 4 ATS in their last 5 games following an against the spread victory but are 6 and 2 ATS in their last 8 games as a fave of ½ to 4 ½ points. I like GS to get it done against the spread on Feb. 15th.
