NBA 12/14

Full slate of games tonight. Here are the ones I like:

Top Picks

76ers/Pacers under 181.5
Celtics/Rockets over 205
Golden St -4.5

Leans:

Wizards +5.5 vs Lakers
Nuggets -1 vs Memphis

Writeups:

76ers/Pacers- Neither team has a dynamic offense and both have been hit by injuries. Both teams will run when they have the right opportunity but more than likely they will be walking it up the court and will try to maximize their possessions. I don't see either team hitting a high percentage and this game falling well under the total.

Celtics/Rockets- The Rockets have really been pushing the ball and the Celtics are comfortable in that type of game. This is a nice non conference matchup and should be fast moving. Look for the winner to score in the 110-115 range and that will push the game over.

Golden St- Time to keep rolling on the bandwagon of the Warriors. The spread is a little bigger for a road game however they have great momentum and will be looking to keep their road win streak alive. The magic won't be up for this game and the Warriors will take advantage.

Wizards- I really hate to take bad teams no matter the situation however I am looking for the Wizards to be playing in front of a  full house and come out with the type of effort they had against Miami. This should be enough to get the cover against the stumbling Lakers. However don't go too crazy, it is the Wizards after all.

Nuggets- Good matchup here for the nuggets. They should be able to handle Memphis on the inside and if they can get their back court scoring then they will handle their business in this one.
