Tuesday is always the easiest day of the week for us. No NFL or College Football, and the NBA slate is usually light. That is the case today as we only have four games. Nevertheless, we plow on and make our picks!

NBA:

Chicago at Brooklyn (-1.5):

Brooklyn played last night and are favored over a Chicago team that has had more rest. We know the Nets got the win yesterday, but we don’t see them going back to back. Give us the Bulls to not only cover, but win outright. Pick: Chicago 112 Brooklyn 105

Golden State at Miami (-1):

Will this be the first road win for the Golden State Warriors? Both of these teams have underperformed so far this year, as both Miami and Golden State have losing records. We think the the struggles for the Warriors continue, and Miami gets the home win. Pick: Miami 117 Golden State 113

Orlando at Oklahoma City (-3):

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is back for a Thunder team that has won three games in a row. Now they face Orlando in what was supposed to be the first matchup between the #1 and #2 picks in last years draft. Of course that isn’t the case since Chet Holmgren is out for the entire year. Both these teams are young and play hard, and we like the Magic to get their second win of the season today. Pick: Orlando 116 Oklahoma City 110

Minnesota at Phoenix (-3.5):

Phoenix just keeps rolling. They are undefeated at home and look like they could get the #1 seed in the conference for the second straight year. We expect the good vibes in Arizona to keep going and the Suns will cover the spread. Pick: Phoenix 125 Minnesota 115

Happy picking everyone!
