NBA Weekly Review

Okay NBA sports betting enthusiasts, with seven weeks of thrilling NBA action complete in the BetUS Sportsbook, association bettors everywhere are starting to get a clearer picture on the overall NBA wagering landscape.  

With another entertaining and profitable week of NBA wagering lying ahead, BetUS NBA sports betting buffs can get a quick review – and brief glimpse ahead – on nearly every NBA team in this NBA wagering review weekly article.

Now, before someone tries to throw up a jump ball or something, let’s get started on this week beginning in the Western Conference.

Starting at the very top of the conference standings, the Los Angeles Lakers have won three straight games after falling to Sacramento last Tuesday, but clearly are not playing their best basketball.

L.A. hosts New York before hitting the road to face the Heat and Magic.

The Denver Nuggets have also won three consecutive games and look like a different – and more competitive team with Chauncey Billups than they ever did with Allen Iverson on the roster.

Denver has an extremely tough week coming up with road games at Dallas, Houston and Phoenix and a home date against Cleveland.

The hottest team in the Western Conference is the San Antonio Spurs, winners of six straight games. The Spurs visit New Orleans and Orlando to start the week.

Believe it or not NBA sports betting buffs, the second hottest team in the entire conference is the Memphis Grizzlies, winners of four straight games in the BetUS Sportsbook.

Memphis has averaged 105.5 points per game during their streak, but has tough contests against New Orleans and L.A. looming with a home date against Charlotte sandwiched in between.

On another note, the Minnesota Timberwolves and Oklahoma City Thunder have dropped nine and seven straight games respectively.

In the Eastern Conference, everything starts and ends with the Boston Celtics, winners of a whopping 14 straight games in the BetUS Sportsbook.

The C’s host Utah and visit Atlanta before coming home for winnable games against Chicago and New York.

The Cleveland Cavaliers had their 11-game winning streak broken by the Hawks on Saturday but should bounce back nicely against Minnesota before visiting Denver to close their upcoming week.

Three Eastern Conference teams, (Atlanta, Detroit and New York) enter the new week riding two-game winning streaks while both, Indiana and Charlotte have dropped six consecutive contests and New Jersey, three straight.
