NBA Predictions & Preview For Wednesday, January 8th

Oklahoma City Thunder vs Cleveland Cavaliers

Start Time – 7:00 PM EST

The game of the night is obviously the NBA’s top team – the Oklahoma City Thunder – visiting the second-best team – the Cleveland Cavaliers. It also pits the best home team (Cleveland) vs the best road team (Oklahoma City).

And I’m going with the road dogs, OKC. The Thunder are head and shoulders above the rest of the league, and even adding in the home-court advantage, they are still the play on the spread for one of my best bets tomorrow.

Best Bet: Oklahoma City +2.5 (-110)

Toronto Raptors vs New York Knicks

Start Time – 7:30 PM EST

As I’m writing this, New York Knicks star Karl-Anthony Towns is “iffy” to suit up for their game tomorrow against the Toronto Raptors. Yet, it doesn’t matter – I’m taking the Knicks on the spread regardless.

Toronto is a putrid 1-15 on the road – their last road game resulted in a 54-point loss in Boston. The spread for this game should be New York -14, with KAT. Without him, I still think they can cover the 10.5 points for us.

Best Bet: New York -10.5 (-115)

Overall Record: 69-51 (58%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $1199.15
Return on Investment: 10%
