Four of the best teams in the NBA square off in a doubleheader on ESPN.
New Orleans at Cleveland
Sportsbook.com has lowered Cleveland down to three-point favorites because of injuries, though the Total has remained stable at 185.5. This is the opener on ESPN starting just after 8 pm ET.
The Portland Trail Blazers (23-15 SU, 17-20 ATS, 15-22 O/U) had their modest three-game winning streak snapped on Wednesday, getting routed by the red-hot Philadelphia 76ers 100-79 while failing to cover the spread in the BetUS Sportsbook as 2-point road favorites in the BetUS Sportsbook. The New Jersey Nets (19-20 SU, 21-18 ATS, 20-19 O/U) were also beaten senseless in their 118-86 shellacking at the hands of the defending-champion Boston Celtics on Wednesday.
The Cleveland Cavaliers (30-6 SU, 26-10 ATS, 17-19 O/U) have won three consecutive games, covering the spread for my beloved BetUS NBA sports betting enthusiasts each time out. The young Chicago Bulls (17-22 SU, 17-22 ATS, 21-17-1 O/U) snapped their two-game losing streak the last time they took the floor, beating the struggling Toronto Raptors 102-98 on Wednesday.
Two of the historically more consistent teams in the NBA, the Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets, battle it out on Thursday night in a game where the Suns have to show something to sports betting fans. Phoenix has been an enigma this season. Even though they are riding a three game winning streak including a terrific victory over the Dallas Mavericks by 28 points, the Suns aren’t nearly as intimidating as they used to be.
Charles Barkley won’t be there. But you can bet he’ll be watching Thursday’s NBA on TNT doubleheader along with the rest of the basketball world.
Barkley has taken a leave of absence in the wake of his recent arrest on suspicion of drunk driving. That’ll reduce (or increase dramatically, depending on your point of view) the entertainment value of TNT’s flagship basketball program. But this remains the best NBA show on television, and hoops is about to take over the sports betting scene as football season winds down.
