The NBA season has gotten off to a great start, and we’ve seen some amazing games so far. This means we can only expect the games to heat up even more and show off some of the best playing to date. Many fans enjoy placing wagers on who they think will win the game, but it’s not always easy to know who’s going to be the best. So, keep reading and lets’ take a look at the NBA picks for this week.
Chicago Bulls & New York Knicks
This match will be an interesting one for sure. The Knicks have just won their past four games, so they’re coming in off a high. The Bulls have done okay so far, but they did lose their last game which was bound to knock their confidence a bit. However, with this still in mind, some places have tipped the Bulls as the favourites to win. But with the way that the Knicks have been playing, we might see some surprising turn of events.
Memphis Grizzlies & Milwaukee Bucks
Currently on a six game win after win, the Grizzlies should wipe the floor with the Bucks. However, the Bucks have only got one player out due to injury, but the Grizzlies have two, so it could go against the favourites to win. The Grizzlies are a 2.5 point home favourite to win this match, but the Bucks could possibly bring it back if they can overpower this champion team. However, the Grizzlies do have a top class team at both ends of the court and are averaging a score of 3.6 points for every 100 possessions. So, it seems that no matter how well the Bucks play, the Grizzlies will still pip them to the post.
Houston Rockets & Miami Heat
The Rockets are fresh off winning two games in a row, so it does seem that they’ll have the confidence to knock down the Miami Heats in their upcoming game. The Heats have also won three out of four most recent games, so it’s likely to be a pretty close match. But the Heats are favourited to win, due to their most recent turn of events where they’ve really shown just how strong of a team they are. So, this match will definitely be a nail-biting one for fans on both sides of the court.
Los Angeles Clippers & Phoenix Suns
The Los Angeles Clippers currently have a three game winning streak, while the Phoenix Suns have a 5 game losing streak. This then leaves no choice but to favour the Clippers in their upcoming game. Really, we should expect to see the Clippers wipe the court and easily win the match. But the Suns could turn it around if they really get it together before the game. But with this all being said, it seems that the Clippers are just a better team all round and will most definitely win this upcoming game.
Utah Jazz & New Orleans Pelicans
The Pelicans are only favoured to win over the Jazz by two points, as both teams seem to be on a pretty even playing field. The Jazz have won in overtime and the Pelicans are currently 18-8 overall, making it anybody’s game. With all of this in mind, this game could go either way and we can’t really say that the Jazz won’t pick up the pace and just take the lead over the Pelicans. The only way to find out is to tune in!
These upcoming NBA games are going to be electric, with so many amazing teams battling it out to be the champions. We can only expect to see some real top notch playing this season, and these picks show you just how close some of the games are going to be.
