Why These Picks?

‍

PHI 76ers v ATL Hawks: I’ll be honest: I just don’t like the way the 76ers have been playing ball lately, and the Hawks are currently on a 5-game win streak. In their plight to secure a playoff spot, I can’t imagine Atlanta half-asses this encounter. To boot, the Hawks pulled off a 10-point victory over Philly just a couple of weeks ago, and they’ve won their last 8 straight meetings with the Sixers. With the home advantage and no Joel Embiid to contend with on the other side, my money’s on the Hawks to cover.

‍

BKN Nets v DET Pistons: I know we don't love double-digit spreads, but this might be the most compelling one I've seen all year. Detroit has won their last five straight meetings with the Nets by at least 14 points, and their last meeting saw the Pistons win by over 50. Say no more – I'm on Detroit for all the marbles.

‍

TB Lightning v TOR Maple Leafs: The leafs have been god-awful, friends. Toronto has lost 12 of their last 15 games, and despite Tampa Bay’s struggle to score over their last 3 outings (albeit, against some solid teams), I think they pick up a much-needed win here on the road. I’m on the Lightning to win in regulation.

‍

NSH Predators v BUF Sabres: The last 3 straight meetings between these two teams have cashed the Over. As for a winner, it’s really tough to build an argument for betting against Buffalo on their own ice. The Sabres have won their last 5 straight games, but as they usually do against Buffalo, I think Nashville will put enough on the board to push this game Over 6.5. I’m on the home squad to win in regulation, and on the Over to hit.
