October 29, 2008
A big slate of games comes our way on October, 29th, 2008. Some of the big games are the Suns/Spurs and the Lakers/Clippers. The Lakers are in a tough spot going back-to-back to start the season, but after last night’s blowout of the Blazers they don’t look like they are going to have much of a problem. Take a look at all of the NBA odds listed below, and we will include some free picks from our top handicappers below that.

Jeff Alexander has a 1 Unit FREE PLAY on Detroit Pistons -10
Detroit is 31-18 ATS as a home favorite over the last 2 seasons and 22-9 ATS in the first half of the season over the last 2 seasons. The Favorite is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings which means the Pacers are 1-5 ATS in the last 6 meetings. Indiana has also been terrible against the NBA Central. The Pacers are 6-16-1 ATS in their last 23 vs. NBA Central Division. The Pistons will look like they haven’t missed a beat tonight as they return the same nucleus of All-Star players who have been playing with one another for the better part of the decade. Coming off an offseason overhaul, it’s going to take the Pacers time to gel. Lay the number.
Dave Price has a 1 Unit FREE PLAY on New Orleans Hornets -5.5
Without Baron Davis on the roster and with Monte Ellis out for at least 30 games, the Warriors are going to have a tough go of it early in the season. We expect to see the same defensively-challenged Warriors team tonight (yielded a league-worst 108.8 ppg). With no one capable of sticking Chris Paul, he’ll be in the lane all night long penetrating and dishing to his bigs and his shooters. Bet the Hornets tonight.
Jimmy Boyd’s 1 Unit FREE PLAY on Atlanta Hawks +8
I like Atlanta to take Orlando right down to the wire in this Southeast Division battle between playoff teams. Odds makers are treating the Hawks like the same old team which used to get beat up on here when in reality they have won 5 of the last 8 meetings between these two teams SU and ATS. In fact, the Hawks are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings in Orlando. With point guard Mike Bibby having had the offseason to really connect with his new team on and off the court, the Hawks are going to be more on the same page this season. With Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, Al Horford alongside him, it looks like Atlanta will be right back in the playoffs. The Hawks will show the Magic that they are here to stay tonight.
