Hey everyone, back with another round of daily NBA ATS picks. Yesterdays picks went 4-0, except I did misprint the line on the Raptors game. On the card I presented it was -8, on the ESPN site I use to analyze the game it was sitting at -7.5. I didn't realize it until I went back to look at it that I had put it in wrong. At -8 the game pushed, at -7.5 it won, and if you got it late, the game lost as the spread soared all the way to -9.5 before tip off.

Pacers Vs Bulls. Pacers favored by -4. The Pacers got throttled by the Bucks last time out while the Bulls lost to the lowly T-Wolves. The Pacers have won all 3 meetings so far this year against the Bulls. I still think Chicago is more in tank mode than compete mode and this spread is small enough that if the Pacers win, they likely cover. Play Pacers -4.

Jazz Vs Celtics. Celtics favored by -2. The Celtics are banged up but the Jazz have not beat anyone impressive lately. This spread is very low for a Celtics home game. I think they win and cover. Play Celtics -2.

Thunder Vs Knicks. Thunder favored by -7. The Thunder had a rough stretch there playing against some elite competition. They took on the Pistons and won last time out. The Knicks had a big upset against the Rockets then lost to the Jazz. I think the Thunder are pretty good and I bet they win and cover here. Play Thunder -7.

Blazers Vs Suns. Blazers favored by -1.5. The Suns have lost 4 in a row and a had few days off to think about it while the Blazers have suddenly had 2 pretty good wins under their belt. The Suns play bad at home and I think that's why they aren't favored here. I think they snap out of their funk against a shorthanded Blazers squad. Play Suns +1.5.

Spurs Vs Nets. Nets favored by -2.5. The Nets made that miracle comeback against the Celtics then went out the next night and lost by 39 points. The Spurs have had a few days rest while the Nets on a 3rd game in 4 days situation. I like the Spurs here. Play Spurs +2.5.

Heat Vs Pelicans. Pelicans favored by -1.5. The Pelicans have suddenly lost 3 in a row while the Heat are on a 4 game winning streak. The Pelicans seem to be the "good bad team" they play tough but somehow manage to lose but look good doing it. The Heat have an abysmal road record while the Pelicans should be motivated here to win. Play Pelicans -1.5.

Hawks Vs Wizards. Wizards favored by -3. The last time these teams played the Hawks won by 19 points. The Wizards are home off a long road trip while the Hawks are well rested for this game. I don't like when teams are playing their first home game off a long road trip. Typically they're still jet lagged. Play Hawks +3.

Bucks Vs Lakers. Line Even. What a game this is. Possible NBA Finals preview. The Bucks and Lakers met earlier in the year and the Bucks prevailed by 7 points. I think the Lakers pour everything into this game to make a statement that they will be competitive should they meet in the Finals. I like the Lakers at home. Play Lakers at Even.

Grizzlies Vs Mavs. Mavs favored by -7.5. These teams have split the season series at 1-1 thus far. The Mavs play worse at home for whatever reason but this line doesn't reflect this fact. It should be -4.5 or -5. I think the Grizzlies keep it close and maybe even steal a win here. Play Grizzlies +7.5.

Magic Vs T-Wolves. Magic favored by -2. The Magic have suddenly lost 3 in a row but they're not playing a team that seemed to be tanking before winning 2 in a row themselves. I think we see a return to normalcy with an easy Orlando win here. Play Magic -2.

Those are my picks for today, good luck with your picks/bets!
