NBA Predictions & Preview For Thursday, January 16th

Cleveland Cavaliers vs Oklahoma City Thunder

Start Time – 7:30 PM EST

The Cleveland Cavaliers won Round 1 of this battle of the behemoths, but the Oklahoma City Thunder get to host the rematch tomorrow on their home court at the Paycom Center. And I like the Thunder to get their revenge.

Cleveland won their first meeting by seven points, and that’s exactly where I have this game lined up tomorrow, but in Oklahoma City’s favor. There’s lots of value on the OKC end of the spread.

Best Bet: Oklahoma City -3 (-105)

 

Los Angeles Clippers vs Portland Trail Blazers

Start Time – 10:30 PM EST

The Portland Trail Blazers aren’t just losing games – they are getting destroyed. They’ve lost their last two games by 21 and 18 points, both at home, the second of which was against the also terrible Brooklyn Nets.

This is to say that I expect the not-terrible Los Angeles Clippers to easily cover the spread for us tomorrow, despite this being the second night of a back-to-back. Los Angeles -10.5 is what my math says.

Best Bet: Los Angeles -6.5 (-110)

 

 

Overall Record: 76-57 (57%)
