There’s a great TNT doubleheader tonight with Detroit at Boston and the L.A. Lakers at Phoenix and we’ve got the inside breakdown for you.
Detroit is 8-3 (6-5 ATS) and handed the Lakers their first loss of the season on their home court 106-95 this past Friday. Last night, the Pistons clipped Cleveland’s eight-game winning streak 96-89, with a 30-21 final stanza.
Detroit Pistons (8-3) @ Boston Celtics (10-2)
Although the Detroit Pistons took a few games to adjust to their new backcourt weapon, Allen Iverson, all seems to be good in Motown as the Pistons head to Boston to face the Celtics in a rematch of last year’s Eastern Conference Finals.
We’re already almost a month in to the NBA Season and sports betting fans are either absolutely thrilled at what has transpired so far or they’re ready to cash in the remaining online betting money they’ve ear-marked for NBA betting this season and buy Ford stock with it.
With just a touch over two weeks of NBA basketball being played so far this, the 2008-09 regular season enters its third full week with several teams starting to find their respective new identities for NBA sports betting buffs – either for good or bad.
The Los Angeles Lakers (7-0 SU, 6-1 ATS) will try to keep their record unblemished on Friday night when they play host to the Detroit Pistons (6-2 SU, 4-4 ATS) in NBA basketball sports betting action that is set to take place at 10:30 PM ET at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
The two teams involved in the blockbuster trade of Allen Iverson and Chauncey Billups are involved in a great TNT doubleheader on Thursday night.
Thye Phoenix Suns (6-2 SU, 5-3 ATS) seem to have hardly missed a beat, even after changing coaches. On Wednesday night they will play host to the Houston Rockets (4-3 SU, 2-5 ATS) in an NBA contest that is set to get underway at 10:30 PM ET at the US Airways Center in Phoenix.
The New York Knicks (4-3 SU, 3-4 ATS) are coming off a disappointing shooting effort last night. On Wednesday night they will try to get things going in a more positive direction against the Memphis Grizzlies (3-5 SU, 5-3 ATS) in an NBA game that is slated to get underway at 8 PM ET at the FedEx Forum in Memphis, TN.
The San Antonio Spurs (1-4 SU, 0-5 ATS), who can consider themselves extremely shorthanded right now, have been able to rest for the last three days and take on the New York Knicks (4-2 SU, 3-3 ATS), who are adjusting to Mike D’Antoni’s new go-go style, in an NBA matchup in sports betting action that is scheduled to take place at 8:30 PM ET at the AT&T Center in San Antonio.
The undefeated Los Angeles Lakers, 5 and 0 on the season straight-up so far, take their high-flying game to Dallas to take on a Mavericks’ squad that looks eerily similar to the same disappointing group of NBA All-Stars that blew it in last season’s playoffs.
The Utah Jazz (5-1 SU, 3-3 ATS) have managed to do very well without star point guard Deron Williams. On Tuesday night they will take on the Philadelphia 76ers (2-4 SU & ATS), who have had a lot of time to ponder their slow start, in NBA sports betting action that is set to get underway at 7 PM ET at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia.
The Washington Wizards (0-3 SU, 1-2 ATS) are going to try to put up their first win of the season tonight as they play host to the New York Knicks (2-2 SU, 1-3 ATS) in an NBA game that is scheduled to get underway at 7 PM ET at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C.
The Utah Jazz (4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS) put their undefeated record on the line on Friday night as they play host to the Oklahoma City Thunder (1-3 SU, 2-2 ATS) in NBA action that is slated to begin at 9 PM ET at the EnergySolutions Arena in Salt Lake City.
The Washington Wizards (0-2 SU, 1-1 ATS, 1-1 O/U) have dropped each of their first two games in the BetUS Sportsbook but may have a decent shot at winning tonight. The Wizards will face a Milwaukee Bucks (2-2 SU, 2-2 ATS, 1-3 O/U) team that has overhauled its roster and changed head coaches coming into the 2008-09 season.
The defending champion Boston Celtics (2-1 SU, 1-2 ATS) were surprisingly routed in their last game, losing to the Indiana Pacers 95-79 on Saturday. The Houston Rockets (3-0 SU, 1-2 ATS) have plans on reaching the NBA Finals this season and are off to a perfect 3-0 start in the BetUS Sportsbook.
The Phoenix Suns (2-1 SU, 2-1 ATS) pounded the young Portland Trailblazers in winning their last contest, 107-96 on Saturday in the BetUS Sportsbook. The New Jersey Nets (1-1 SU, 1-1 ATS) were scorched by the high-scoring Golden State Warriors in their last outing, a 105-97 loss, also on Saturday.
