Just taking a quick glance at the board, there seem to be a few decent picks: Philadelphia vs Detroit 1, Boston vs Utah 1, Milwaukee vs Indiana 1, Golden State vs Atlanta 1...
I think Philly should handle a weak Detroit. Boston looks great right now—that last win over Chicago was solid. Milwaukee seems to be finding their rhythm too, so they should take care of an injured Indiana side. And Golden State should probably beat an Atlanta team that isn't looking too sharp... odds might sit around 6... That's just my initial gut feeling. I'll write more once I actually sit down to study the matchups and the injury reports properly.🙂
Personally, I’d steer clear of Utah. They have a pretty decent roster this year, and honestly, not many teams look like a safe bet against them, especially if they start leaning heavily on Milsap, Favors, and Jefferson on the court.
In my opinion, Harden should go over his total today; he's getting plenty of shots, and when he faced tougher defenders before, his average dipped, so he might bounce back with a 30+ point night. Lin should also go over. The only real risk is if they don't end up winning by a massive blowout.
