NBA Basketball Free Picks - Red-Hot Magic Host Cavaliers
San Antonio Spurs (- 8) vs. Minnesota
Timberwolves (+ 8)
While the Cleveland Cavaliers, (38-29 SU, 32-35 ATS, 33-32-2 O/U), are still trying to find their way after a franchise-altering trade that saw six players leave the team and are being almost literally carried by superstar LeBron James, the Orlando Magic, (44-24 SU, 42-24-2 ATS, 33-33-2 O/U), are in the process of putting the pedal to the metal as the postseason quickly approaches.
The Magic have
won four straight and eight of ten in
the BetUS.com Sportsbook coming into
this contest including a 122-111 win
over the Indiana Pacers on Saturday,
while the Cavaliers have gone a solid
6-4 in their last ten and beat the Charlotte
Bobcats 98-91 on Sunday to snap a two-game
losing streak.

James - the NBA's scoring leader at
30.9 points per game - scored 33 points
against the Bobcats and took over down
the stretch, willing his team to victory
with several clutch plays over the suddenly
competitive Bobcats.
The Cavaliers are currently in fourth
place in the Eastern Conference and trying
to secure home-court advantage in the
first round of the playoffs.
Orlando got another fine performance
from swingman Hedo Turkoglu against the
Pacers as Turkoglu scored 27 points and
Rashard Lewis added 22.
"I wouldn't say it was a great
offensive night because we handled the
ball very poorly," said Orlando
coach Stan Van Gundy. "We were able
to survive because we shot the ball so
well."
Here
is a look at tonight’s Key
Trends, followed by my analysis and NBA
Betting Picks.
The Cavaliers are 5-1 ATS in their last
6 vs. NBA Southeast.
The Cavaliers are 5-1 ATS in their last
6 games playing on 0 days rest.
The Magic are 6-0-1 ATS in their last
7 home games vs. a team with a losing
road record.
The Magic are 7-1-1 ATS in their last
9 home games.
The Over is 4-0 in Cavaliers last 4
road games.
The Over is 6-0 in Magic last 6 Monday
games.
The Over is 10-3-1 in the last 14 meetings
in Orlando.
The Over is 11-5 in the last 16 meetings.
Analysis: Despite the fact that the
Magic are a better team and will be playing
at home tonight, I like the Cleveland
Cavaliers to cover the spread in a losing
effort, as LeBron James gives his team
a decent shot to win by keeping it close
until the very end.
