Here are some free NBA picks on tonight’s games that can help you win a few more of your bets. I always feel like I have to throw out this caveat though. While the free picks from our sharp handicappers do typically win more than they lose, they are not as strong as the experts premium predictions.
The free picks are typically strong leans the guys have, but the line just isn’t showing quite enough value for them to pull the trigger and make it a premium selection. Other times it’s a big game that clients want an opinion on just so they can have action, but the handicapper isn’t recommending a big investment type of bet.

Celtics vs 76ers The 76ers are coming off an incredible road win priced as a 14.5-point underdog at the Boston Garden Tuesday. That type of loss gets a superior team refocused to regain control of the playoff series and home court advantage. The Philadelphia fan base is feeding off their NHL Flyers and their remarkable run to get into the playoffs and now up 3-0 against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Teams from the same city can feed off the successes of each other during the playoff runs, but this is a big ask for the 76ers, who will again be without their former MVP Center Joel Embiid. Analytically, road favorites of four or more points that are coming off a loss priced as a favorite have bounced back well compiling a 21-6 SU (78%) and 19-7-1 ATS record for 73% winning bets since 2002. If that loss occurred at home, these embarrassed teams respond to the tune of a 7-1 SUATS record for 88% winning bets. In fact, home teams that are coming off a playoff upset road win are 123-114 SU (52%), but 95-140-2 ATS. If these teams are priced as home dogs of any size, they fail miserably with a 17-42 SU (29%) and 20-37-1 ATS record for just 35% winning bets since 2002. |
