Tatum with the next monster performance against the Mavs?
Four games will take place tonight in the NBA and in the coming night fans of cultivated basketball sport can look forward to four more matches. With regard to the evening games, the New York derby between the Nets and Knicks is unquestionably the center of attention.
In addition, the first in the West from Phoenix will receive the record champion from Los Angeles starting at 02:00. An encounter that is of course also very appealing and one can be curious whether the home side can hold their own without “CP3”.
Brooklyn Nets vs. New York Knicks – March 13, 6:00 p.m.
Steve Nash is completing his second season as head coach in the NBA with the Nets and the season so far has unquestionably tugged at his nerves. Numerous injuries, the stress with Kyrie Irving because of his unresolved vaccination status and the transfer of James Harden to the Sixers – there has really been no lack of construction sites for the coach-sophomore.
Most recently, however, a respectable victory was recorded at Philadelphia. Not only did they beat a top team in the East, but they also had a successful reunion with “The Beard”. A success that was therefore especially important psychologically for the home side.
For the New York derby between the Brooklyn Nets and New York Knicks, tips on more than 30.5 points by Kevin Durant are worth a recommendation. In home games, the personnel of Kyrie Irving always makes him especially important and KD should handle this extra workload once again.
Detroit Pistons vs. Los Angeles Clippers – March 13, 8:00 PM
The Pistons and Clippers have faced each other only once this season last November. On that occasion, the Californians prevailed in front of their own crowd. It’s not a new pattern for this pairing: for the past five duels, the basketball team from Motown has always been defeated.
Detroit’s home record does not bode well for the hosts either: Only one of the past ten home encounters against LA could be won!
Predictions for the game at Little Caesars Arena between the Detroit Pistons and Los Angeles Clippers appear promising for more than 32.5 points, rebounds and assists by point guard Cade Cunningham on the home side.
The rookie is having a great season with the second-to-last team in the league and is currently in great form: So he exceeded the selected limit in two thirds of the six games so far this month.
Boston Celtics vs. Dallas Mavericks – March 13, 8:30 p.m.
Boston and Dallas put up a tough fight in the last head-to-head matchup, with the Texans narrowly triumphing 107-104 in the end. This is not a new scenario for this pairing, as the last five duels were all close and showed a maximum lead of ten points for the respective winner.
Currently, however, the very good form of the hosts speaks for a defeat of the guests. Boston has lost only three of its last 20 games! The balance shows that the stable form has long been sustainable and especially Jayson Tatum has recently convinced. The small forward has an extremely high scoring average of 42 points after five games in the current month!
For the showdown at the United Center between the Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks, predictions of more than 28.5 points by the, as mentioned, currently particularly accurate Jayson Tatum are recommended.
Orlando Magic vs. Philadelphia 76ers – March 13, 11:00 PM
The Florida franchise will face the visit of the Sixers with mixed feelings: Orlando has not been able to win against Philly since seven attempts! Currently, the home side also occupies the last place in the Eastern Conference. However, despite this position, Orlando’s recent form has been on the rise, with wins over New Orleans and the Timberwolves.
The visitors, for their part, arrive in third place in the East and can rely on their away strength. No team in the Eastern Conference tops the 65.6 percent win rate the Sixers have (21-11)! With a lot of frustration in the belly, James Harden will also start at the 76ers.
The MVP of 2018 recently blew the first meeting with his old colleagues from Brooklyn. Against the Nets, the newcomer from Philly was unable to build on his previously strong performances, sinking only three of his 17 attempts from the field, among other things.
Obviously, Harden’s nerves failed him in this particular game, which is why he will now be all the more motivated. For the game at the Amway Center between Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers betting tips on more than 21.5 points by the guard are worth considering. A limit that Harden anyway, with the exception of the weak day against the Nets, only once against the Bulls in his six games so far on the side of Philly has not exceeded.
Atlanta Hawks vs. Indiana Pacers – March 14, 00:00 PM
This is the third time this season that the Hawks and Pacers have crossed blades, with “Hotlanta” winning both of the previous duels. In the games especially Trae Young was convincing, who delivered the most points in each game and scored at least 33 points!
The guard also managed a double-double in points and assists in both games. The opponent apparently suits him especially, because thanks to these balances he now has four duels in a row with Indy, in which he managed to score at least 30 points.
For the game at State Farm Arena between the Atlanta Hawks and Indiana Pacers on March 14, betting on a home win with at least a dozen points to spare is a good idea. Besides Young’s preference for this opponent, the prediction is also supported by the fact that the guests will have to play a back-to-back and the opponent will therefore be fresher.
New Orleans Pelicans vs. Houston Rockets – March 14, 00:00
The Pels and Rockets will contest the fourth duel of the season and after a win for the Texans in the first comparison, the Louisiana hoopers prevailed twice last time out. In all the encounters, the guests have always had one problem in particular, Brandon Ingram.
The former player of the Lakers and MIP of 2020 averaged no less than 33 points in the games! However, he now has to miss due to injury and the second best scorer in the person of CJ McCollum on the side of the guests is also unavailable due to safety protocol.
In the clash between the New Orleans Pelicans and Houston Rockets, value can be discovered in the odds on an away win or a defeat for the guests with a maximum difference of five points.
Oklahoma City Thunder vs Memphis Grizzlies – March 14, 00:00
OKC surprisingly won the last direct duel against the Grizzlies last December. However, the win was a narrow one for Head Coach Mark Daigneault’s selection, 102-99, and currently there is little to suggest a repeat.
The hosts enter the match decimated in terms of personnel and have lost their past four games. As the second-last team in the West, the chances of reaching the postseason are also realistically non-existent, which is why the motivation on the part of the hosts has long since waned.
The visitors, on the other hand, are in a very good second place in the Western Conference and are also convincing away from home. Phoenix alone has a high away win rate in the West. The men from Tennessee have won just under two-thirds of their 34 away games so far (22-12).
For the game at Paycom Center between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Memphis Grizzlies on 3/14/2022, picks on an away win with at least a 13-point difference are worth considering.
Phoenix Suns vs. Los Angeles Clippers – Mar 14, 02:00 PM
The Suns have not been a good place for the Lakers lately: for seven duels, the Californians have always lost out to the franchise from the Valley. However, the runners-up will now have to do without Chris Paul, which means the NBA’s best assist man will be missing. In addition, LeBron James is in impressive form on the visitors’ side.
In the last game against Washington he delivered 50 points and his second home game in a row with at least this number of points. The last time Kobe Bryant achieved this feat was in 2007 with the Lakers. In addition, LBJ is now the oldest player in NBA history to accomplish games of this nature in a single season.
The previous record holder was Bernard King, who did it in the 1990/91 season as a player for the Wizards. King was 34 years old at that time, while James already counts 37 lenze. “The Chosen One” thus continues to work diligently on expanding his legend status.
However, his great performances are still often not enough, which is why the guests are only ninth in the West. In contrast, the home side are in first place in the Western Conference and also have the second-best home record (28-8) in the West after the Warriors.
