NBA Picks January 22nd
San Antonio Spurs vs. Philadelphia 76ers
Tipoff – 7:00 pm EST
Spread: 76ers -13.5
Total: 238.5
Now that the San Antonio Spurs have given in and are actually playing a real point guard, they aren’t so crummy anymore. Yes, they are still losing most of their games, but at least now they aren’t getting blown out. Which is why I’m taking them plus 13.5 points for tomorrow’s game in Philadelphia. The Sixers are going to win this game, surely, but I think the Spurs can keep it under a 14-point deficit. And I think the total is too high, so Under 238.5 is the play.
Best Bet: Spurs +13.5 (-110); Spurs/76ers Under 238.5 (-110)
Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Orlando Magic
Tipoff – 7:00 pm EST
Spread: Magic -1
Total: 215.5
The Cleveland Cavaliers are on fire, having won seven straight games. The Orlando Magic, meanwhile, were struggling before crushing the Miami Heat at home on Sunday. The Cavs are also one of the league’s best road teams, with a 10-7 record. Despite this, I’m taking the home squad -1 on the back-to-back. Cleveland will still be without Evan Mobley and Darius Garland and I think this is eventually going to catch up with them. Plus, I like the Over here as 215.5 is too low in my eyes.
Best Bet: Magic -1 (-110); Cavaliers/Magic Over 215.5 (-110)
