NBA Picks

James Harden and his willingness to absorb all offensive duties has been, quite frankly, otherworldly. Between his step-back 3s, foul-drawing and straight-line finishes in traffic, he’s using north of 40% of Houston’s possessions while maintaining his elite efficiency. Does LA have a chance at slowing The Beard and therefore a chance beating the bookie’s spread of Rockets -7?

The San Antonio Spurs travel to Minneapolis to take on the Minnesota Timberwolves in Friday NBA betting action. The sportsbooks have the ‘Wolves listed as a -1.5 to -2 favorite with the total line available in the 214.5 to 215 points range. The trend in this series favors the home team with six straight wins both straight up and against the spread. See if NBA prognosticator Franks is riding or bucking the trend tonight.

With some snow headed towards the East Coast this weekend, you can catch Kyle on the couch, wrapped in a blanket, drinking Irish hot chocolate and watching a marathon of NBA and college hoops. To prepare for the glorious weekend, let’s start off with a little appetizer as the Golden State Warriors head into the City of Angels to take on LA’s best basketball team.

The Lakers own a stout defensive front led by…Javale McGee! Yes – Javale McGee! But at the same time, they ain’t the ’85 Bears, and we can expect that the 1-2 punch from Westbrook and Paul George will be enough to penetrate that wall. But can they cover the sportsbook’s 10 point spread? KC has the NBA pick.

After doling out a standard-for-him 46 points and 14 rebounds on Monday, the Brow faces a much tougher opponent tonight. While a bad game for AD is a great game for 98% of the rest of the league, he can’t be anything less than excellent if the Pelicans want any chance of winning. It could be worse, the game could be next week when his old pal Demarcus is at the five. KC has the NBA pick.
