The NBA is heading for their All-Star bash and things have been looking good for the defending champion Boston Celtics.
Sure they lost 110-109 in OT to Kobe Bryant and the L.A. Lakers last night, failing to cover as 6.5-point home faves, but despite the tough loss in that highly entertaining matchup, things are pretty rosy in Beantown.
The Phoenix Suns home woes have been gigantic as they get ready to host the Golden State Warriors on Friday night.
The Suns are 26-21 on the year, but they’re one of the rare NBA teams where their record is similar at home (13-10) and away (13-11). Phoenix has also been awful from a betting perspective at home, where their 7-16 ATS mark is one of the worst in the league.
The NBA is approaching the All-Star break and this is a big stretch for some teams before taking some time off. Matt Fargo will be looking into Hot and Cold NBA bets throughout the season and he takes a look at four games that you will want to pay attention to coming up over the weekend.
Two nights after Kobe Bryant took center stage by dropping a Madison Square Garden-record 61 points on the defenseless New York Knicks, (21-26 SU, 27-20 ATS, 20-27 O/U), the Cleveland Cavaliers (38-9 SU, 32-15 ATS, 21-26 O/U) and more importantly, superstar forward LeBron James, will get his chance to shine on the league’s biggest stage.
