NBA Picks November 27, 2023
Portland Trailblazers vs. Indiana Pacers
Tipoff – 7:00 pm EST
Spread: Pacers -13
Total: 240
The bookmakers can’t make Pacer game totals any higher. Thus far this season, a game involving the Pacers’ are 14-1 to the Over! 14-1 that is 93.3%! In fact, the Pacers are the #1 offensive-rated (123.6), #1 in pace, and the third worst defensive-rated (120.0) team in the NBA.
Additionally, in the Pacers’ home teams this season, the Over is 9-1. Despite the Trailblazers being the worst offensive-rated team, they did get veteran point guard Malcolm Brogdon back. The Pacers force opposing teams to play their style of basketball, leading to plenty of points being scored.
Best Bet: Blazers/Pacers Over 240
New Orleans Pelicans vs. Utah Jazz
Tipoff – 10:00 pm EST
Spread: Pelicans -5
Total: 230.5
The Pelicans and the Jazz matchup in consecutive games where both teams played each other Saturday night. The Jazz used a 37-23 4th quarter to pull away and get the victory 105-100. Tonight, the Pelicans look to avenge that loss as the Pelicans should see Zion Williamson back in the lineup.
The Pelicans have been the best defensive-rated team over the last five games in the first half. Further, the Pelicans have a +17.5 net rating in the first half, which ranks third best in the league. Contrary, the Jazz have a -20.8 net rating in the first half over the course of the last five games, which ranks 2nd worst. I expect the Pelicans to come out strong in this game and look to avenge the previous loss.
Best Bet: Pelicans 1H -2.5
Denver Nuggets vs. Los Angeles Clippers
Tipoff – 10:30 pm EST
Spread: Clippers -5.5
Total: 221.5
The defending NBA Champions are heading to Los Angeles to take on the Clippers tonight. The Nuggets played on Sunday night and took care of business against the Spurs. Meanwhile, the Clippers won an ugly game against the Mavericks on Saturday night, 107-88. I am expecting another low-scoring game tonight between these two teams.
First, the Denver Nuggets have struggled on the road this season, where they are just 1-8 ATS, and their offensive rating ranks #21 in the entire league. Further, on the road this season, the Nuggets are 7-2 to the Under. Additionally, the Under is 5-1-1 in Clippers home games this season. Lastly, the Clippers are the best defensive-rated team in the NBA this season. I am expecting a rock fight tonight!
Best Bet: Nuggets/Clippers Under 221.5
YTD Record: 12-9 (57.1%)
