NBA Playbook Betting Lines Odds Picks F

A large 10-game slate of games awaits us on this wonderful Wednesday night. Whenever we have a large slate of games, you know there is some value to be found somewhere, and we are going to find it. BetQL subscribers can see more betting trends and all of our best bets with star ratings for every pick. Magic at Cavaliers PredictionWe'll start with one of the more tame matchups of the slate as the Magic take on the Cavaliers. The Magic have been abysmal to start the season, and there are many reasons for that. For starters, they are currently 26th in total offense in the NBA, averaging just 107 points per game. They have several people out, but they are awful right now. On defense, they are certainly better, but still not great. Orlando is ranked 19th in defense, allowing just over 115 points per game.The Cavs have been good, despite not having Darius Garland to begin the year. They have been especially good on defense, allowing just 104 points per game, which is good for third in the NBA right now. They are also close to being top-10 in the NBA on offense, ranking just outside that at Andrew DePaola Jersey 11th, scoring 117 points per game. That's a fantastic 13-point differential, good for second-best in the NBA.MY PICK:Cleveland should get the job done here at home. Donovan Mitchell has been a great addition to the team, and they have kept that defensive prowe s from last season.76ers at Raptors PredictionWhat is going on with the 76ers? Has all the succe s of the Eagles and Phillies made it so that they can't be succe sful? Funny how the sports world works. In all seriousne s, the 76ers haven't been as bad as their record says, but they haven't been good either. Defensively, they have been their usual self, ranking 11th in the league and giving up just 109 points per game. It has been the offense that has struggled quite a bit. Philadelphia ranks 24th in the league on offense, scoring just over 107 points per game. Joel Embiid hasn't looked like himself so far, but James Harden has been surprisingly effective, scoring almost 27 points per game.The Raptors have been pretty good to begin the season, especially on defense. They rank fourth in the NBA, giving up 104 points per game, but the offense has struggled. Toronto is scoring just 105 points per game, which is good for 27th in the league. Pascal Siakam has been great for them to begin the season, but the rest of the offense has been off.PICK:This should be a very close game, and if the Sixers can just get their offense going, they should win. However, I haven't seen any signs of that so far, and with Mackensie Alexander Jersey this Toronto defense, it should be hard for them again. The Raptors just held Miami to 90 points on Monday night, so it could be tough sledding for Philly.Nets at Bucks PredictionHere's the first great matchup of the night, when the Nets take on the Bucks. Kevin Durant vs. Giannis Antetokounmpo? Sign me up, please. Both guys are averaging over 30 points per game to start the year, so this should be a show. Brooklyn, as a team, however, has struggled. This Nets defense is allowing over 123 points per game, which is 28th in the NBA to start the year. They can't stop anyone. On offense, they have some great players like Durant, but they are middle of the pack, ranking 16th in the league and scoring about 114 points Minnesota Vikings Accessories per game.The Bucks have been far better, and it hasn't been close. Milwaukee is the best defense in the NBA by far to begin the year, allowing just over 96 points per game through their first few matchups. They have a reputation for being great defensively, so this isn't a surprise. On offense, it hasn't been nearly as good, scoring just over 107 points per game, which is tied for 24th in the league.PICK:Milwaukee is at home in this one, and the Nets have to figure something out on defense before things get worse for them. I like the Bucks here a lot.Hornets at Knicks PredictionI'm shocked the Hornets have a winning record to begin the year after three games because I think this team may be the worst in basketball. Prove me wrong though, Charlotte. Gordon Hayward's scoring touch has helped them win those games, and he's having a bit of a rejuvenated year so far. This offense has been in sync with him, and they have been shockingly good to begin the year. The Hornets are scoring 122 points per game on offense, which is third in the NBA right now. Defensively, they are middle of the pack, ranking 15th and allowing 112 points per game. I'll admit it Charlotte has looked like a top-10 team so far. I don't think that lasts.The Knicks might be even better to begin the season. Here are two teams that I certainly didn't expect to be one of the better matchups of the night, but it is. New York is ranked seventh in the NBA on defense, allowing just 108 points per game, which isn't shocking for a Tom Thibodeau-coached team. On offense, they rank sixth in the NBA, scoring 119 points per game. To me, that adds up to a top-3 team in the league after three games.PICK:This is a tough one, as both of these teams have been great to start the year. I'll take the team I think is Justin Jefferson T Shirts better, and the one that is at home, and that's the Knicks. I just really don't like the Hornets this season, and I think this is a fluke for them.Pacers at Bulls PredictionTwo Central Division rivals take the stage here when the Pacers take on the Bulls. I'm not high on either team this season, honestly. Indiana's strength has been on their offense, where they are scoring 118 points per game, which is good for eighth in the NBA. Defense is where they run into trouble, allowing over 121 points per game, which is ranked 27th in the league. Another team that can't stop anyone. Tyrese Haliburton has been a monster for them this season, scoring 24 points per game.The Bulls are a team I think will take a step back in 2022. They have been pretty good on defense, which is surprising, ranking 12th in the league and allowing 110 points per game. It is the offense that has been Za'Darius Smith Jersey le s than stellar, ranking 22nd and scoring 108 points per game.PICK: The difference here will be how bad Indiana is on defense. DeMar DeRozan should have a field day against them, and Zach LaVine should be able to get his shooting back.Spurs at Timberwolves PredictionI've been shocked at how well the Spurs have been playing, but early in the year, we always have bad teams that play better than they are. San Antonio hasn't been great on defense, ranking 22nd and allowing over 118 points per game, but they have been sneaky good on offense. The Spurs are scoring 117 points per game offensively, so they can put the ball in the basket.The Timberwolves have been pretty average, but that isn't surprising. The offense has been good, ranking 13th in the NBA, scoring 116 points per game. The defense has been pretty mid, ranking 17th and allowing 115 points per game. Karl-Anthony Towns has been the star of the show for t
