Hey guys 8 games on tap tonight in the NBA. Had a dismal day yesterday as my record ATS was 2-5. The Lakers won but didn't cover, the Blazers won and didn't cover, then the Nuggets fell short of covering by 1 point. The Bulls decided the weren't in tank mode after all, then the Pacers just slept walked through their game losing by 46(!) points. My two winners were on the Pelicans and Thunder. Let's get to todays games. Gonna run through these pretty quickly.

Heat Vs Cavs. Heat favored by -5.5 on the road. This is the second game of a back to back between these 2 teams and the Heat have won every game this year against the Cavs. I think the Cavs will try to get a win in the series. Play Cavs +5.5

Nets Vs Magic. Nets favored by -2.5 at home. The Nets have been playing surprisingly well without Kyrie Irving while the Magic have disappointed all year long. I'll take my chances on the Nets at home. Play Nets -2.5

Knicks Vs Rockets. Rockets favored by -14. These teams are on opposite trajectories with the Rockets on a 3 game win streak and the Knicks on a 3 game losing streak. This is a huge line though and might be slightly inflated. Play Knicks +14.

Bucks Vs Wizards. Bucks favored by -12.5. The Wizards did not show up yesterday against the Bulls and lost and probably were looking ahead to this game. Unfortunately I don't give the Wizards much of a chance to win. Maybe they cover the number, but this is their 3rd game in 4 days, I think they lose the cover down the stretch. Play Bucks -12.5.

Hawks Vs 76ers. 6ers favored by -8. The Hawks beat the 76ers the last time they played and lost by 2 in their first game, both of those were in Atlanta though. This game is in Philly and I bet that makes a huge difference. The 76ers are great at home. Play 6ers -8.

Grizzlies Vs Clippers. Clippers favored by -9. The Clippers have lost 3 straight and lost the last time they faced the Grizzlies. I think we get a motivated Clippers squad to end this losing streak. I think they blow out the Grizzlies here. Play Clippers -9.

Suns Vs Jazz. Jazz favored by -7.5. Utah has become very inconsistent but they still have a good home record. They've lost their last 2 home games and should be looking to get back on track. I think Utah puts it all together against a bad Suns squad. Play Utah -7.5

T-Wolves playing the Mavs. Mavs favored by -13. Mavs lost their last game against Atlanta amid controversy down the stretch while the T-Wolves have given up on the season and lost 4 in a row and 9 of their last 10. I think Dallas wins easily but this might be a close game spread wise. The Wolves have been losing but not by big margins. Play Wolves +13.

Those are my picks for today, hopefully they turn out better than yesterdays. Good luck with your picks/bets!
