Betting On the Philadelphia 76ers Regular Season Record: 54-28 1XBet Spread: -8.5 1XBet Moneyline: 1.322 1XBet Over/Under: Over 214.5 BetMGM Spread: -8.5 BetMGM Moneyline: 1.28 BetMGM Over/Under: Under 214.5 The Philadelphia 76ers actually had a good regular season, they emerged 3rd place in the Eastern Conference standings with 54 wins in 82 games. When those numbers are separated, it should be noted that the 76ers’ matches on the home court: 29 matches out of 42 were won (4th indicator in the east). Additionally, when backing this team, consider the fact that they have a great mindset for today’s matchup after securing 5 wins in the last seven games. Betting on the Brooklyn Nets Regular Season Record: 45-37 1XBet Spread: +8.5 1XBet Moneyline: 4.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 214.5 BetMGM Spread: +8.5 BetMGM Moneyline: Over 214.5 BetMGM Over/Under: 3.75 The Brooklyn Nets were top 4 in the Eastern Conference for a long time but ended as the final 6th place.  However, it should still be noted that the Nets are good for road matches: they won 22 games out of 41 (3rd indicator in the East). If you’re going to back the Nets, note that the team’s composition is in good shape, almost all their players will be present for today’s game. MatchPlug Prediction Brooklyn weakened after Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving left the team; they had been top 3 in the Eastern Conference standings for a long time, only to take the last 6th place. Philadelphia on the other hand, had an even season; they won where they needed to and ended the season on the third line. Additionally, when predicting for 76ers VS Nets, not that all four head-to-head matchups between these teams ended with Philadelphia winning. Even in the last game on April 9th, the 76ers dealt the Nets a 105-134 blow. The hosting team shouldn’t have a problem with today’s game. Final Prediction: Philadelphia 76ers Spread.

Predictions and Betting Preview for Cleveland Cavaliers VS New York Knicks Play-in Tournament  Venue: Quicken Loans Arena, Cleveland, Ohio When: Saturday, April 15th, 2023 Time: 15:00 GMT Teams to play: Cleveland Cavaliers and New York NBA Expert Picks: SPREAD -4.5 Odds by BetMGM and 1XBet. Betting On The Cleveland Cavaliers Regular Season Record: 51-31 1XBet Spread: -4.5 1XBet Moneyline: 1.558 1XBet Over/Under: Over 217.5 BetMGM Spread: -5.5 BetMGM Moneyline: Under 216.5 BetMGM Over/Under: 1.45 2022-23 Cleveland Cavaliers had the best defense in the NBA; they allowed the lowest three-point attempts per game in the regular season and held opponents to the 6th lowest effective goal percentage. The Cavaliers are 4th in turnover percentage. Their Achilles heel was pushing misses on threes, opponents shot 36.8% against them, which was 23rd in the league. Surprisingly, the Knicks had higher shooting numbers against Cleveland this campaign than their season averages. Most of the time, the Cavaliers were the ones doing the shutting down. In terms of offense, the Cavaliers didn’t slack too, they finished 8th in offensive rating. 9th in effective goal percentage, took the lead as fifth-bets shooting percentage at the rim, 66.1%. They guarded the ball well too, ending the season 9th in turnover percentage. Donovan Mitchell is the name on everyone’s lips and he’s dealt with New York recently. The last 6 times he faced the Knicks, he averaged 32.5 points with 7.0 assists. The Cavaliers had the second-best net rating in the NBA this season, and most of the destruction happened at home. They went 31-10 in Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse, which is the 6 best home record in the NBA. Cleveland has a home-court advantage this season, so, winning all their home games should do the trick. Darius Garland, Caris LeVert, and Donovan Mitchell were absent from games towards the end of the season, but as a precautionary measure. Three of them should be gracing the courts today. It isn’t certain if Isaac Okoro will be joining, although reports say he’s headed in the right direction. Okoro is great at defense, so it will boost the Cavalier’s ranks significantly. Betting On The New York Knicks Regular Season Record: 47-35 1XBet Spread: +4.5 1XBet Moneyline: 3.165 1XBet Over/Under: Under 217.5 BetMGM Spread: +5.5 BetMGM Moneyline: Over 216.5 BetMGM Over/Under: 2.80 The New York Knicks were among the seven teams to finish above .500 in away matches this season, with a 24-17 record away from the Garden. Their net rating in road contests was +1.6, 5th in the league. One of their away wins was courtesy of Cleveland on March 31, the last time they played the Cavs. In Julius Randle’s absence, New York won 130-116. Randle’s health is perhaps the biggest news for the Knicks. He was supposed to play all 82 games before he sprained his ankle against Miami Heat on March 29. While Randle has been practising, he’s faced limitations, not participating in any contact activities. He was an All-Star this season, heading New York in scoring and rebounding,  The team scaled through the season without his 25.1 points and 10.0 boards per game, but they won’t have the same luck postseason. Jalen Brunson ended the season too with an injury but showed that a right-hand sprain won’t hinder him at all. Brunson is a left-handed shooter, so this won’t affect him. The Knicks will need him in shape the same way he was in last year’s playoffs, to lead an offense that is 4th in offensive rating. The Knicks’ successful offense wasn’t born out of shooting efficiency. Instead, they thrived by limiting turnovers (5th in turnover percentage), frequenting the free throw line (8th in free throw rate), and grabbing offensive boards (second in offensive rebounding percentage). New York has an iso-heavy offense, with the fewest assist percentage in the game. New York dwindled on defense, especially with them ending 19th in defensive rating. Rebounding and forcing misses, particularly at the rim, are the Knicks’ strong suits on the defensive end of the floor. But, they allow too many threes and don’t force turnovers. In the four meetings, they held the Cavaliers to 105.3 points per game on 44.6% shooting from the field, both well below the Cavaliers’ season average. MatchPlug Prediction Today’s game between the Cavaliers and Knicks should be a tight one. Game one in a series usually is, especially between evenly matched teams and the fact that New York which was lower-seeded won the season series. The Knicks’ impressive defense at the rim and rebounding that matches the Cavaliers is what gives Cleveland fits.  Cleveland’s outstanding home performance doesn’t work because New York on the road was one of the toughest teams to defeat. This game may be decided by one possession. Final Prediction: Cleveland Cavaliers Spread. Related Preview: NBA Expert Picks: Philadelphia 76ers VS Brooklyn Nets Predictions Tonight

Both players have the capacity to take over the Pelicans’ offense, which concluded the regular season with an average of 117.5 points per game. McCollum put up 20.9 PPG in the regular season, while Ingram made 24.7 PPG. The duo expect to get assistance from Trey Murphy, Jonas Valanciunas, and Herbert Jones. Valanciunas will play an important role because of his rebounding powers. He ended the regular season with 10.2 RPG while playing efficiently too on offense with 14.1 PPG on 54.7 FG%.  While the Pelicans are dealing with a 113-108 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves in a game that happened last Sunday, they covered the spread in five of their last 6 games after dealing with a loss.

They weren’t regarded for a greater part of the season as a contender for playoffs, but the Thunder are now only two wins away from securing a sure spot in the 2023 NBA Playoffs. After 82 games, Oklahoma City mustered a +1.1-point differential, averaging 117.5 points per game and allowing 116.4 points per contest. They are led by an explosive offensive talent in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who averages 31.4 PPG on an impressive 51.0 FG% despite high usage. Jalen Williams has also become a breakout talent for the Bolts, particularly in the last part of the NBA regular season. Williams put up 13.5 points on 47.8 FG% in his last four outings. As a team, the Thunder is 10-4 ATS in their past 14 games versus the Pelicans. MatchPlug Prediction Gilgeous-Alexander, Williams, and Josh Giddy lead the Thunder with good outside shooting and their powers for breaking down defenses with their respective talents. Final Prediction: Pelicans win. Related Preview: NBA Expert Picks: Toronto Raptors VS Chicago Bulls Predictions Tonight

Toronto won 3 of its last 5 games and 6 of its last 9 outings. Plus they’ve gone unbeaten in all four of their most recent games at home. Playing in front of their home audience in such a high-pressure match is a big advantage for the Raptors in today’s game, especially when you consider the success they’ve had lately at Scotiabank Arena. The Raptors are also 15-5-1 ATS in its last 21 home games. Expect their defense to make the game more interesting. They are in 4th position in the NBA with only 111.4 points allowed per game and No.1 too with teams making our only 82.3 field goals per game with Toronto.

They became the No.10 seed in the Play-in Tournament after winning their last two games for a 40-42 record. Chicago has momentum because of their present winning streak, which includes the 102-81 defeat of the Detroit Pistons at home last Sunday. As always the Bulls, will depend on Zach LaVine (24.8 PPG), DeMar DeRozan (24.4 PPG), and Nikola Vucevic (17.6 PPG, 11.0 RPG) in this end-all game against the Raptors on the road. Chicago covered the spread in 12 games of their last 17 trips to face Toronto. They are also 7-3 against the spread in their last 10 meetings with Toronto.

They have experienced three successive losses and six defeats in their last 10 games. After losing to the Toronto Raptors 120-100 last Tuesday, the Hornets are back home, with LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier absent from the game. But Bryce McGowens and Theo Maledon will get more minutes. Charlotte is the second-worst team in the NBA when playing home games, with just 13 wins and 27 losses. They allowed the second-highest number of rebounds to opponents too, with an average of 46.2 boards conceded per game. Betting on the Houston Rockets Regular Season Record: 20-60 1XBet Spread: -4.5 1XBet Moneyline: 1.645 1XBet Over/Under: Under 229.5 BetMGM Spread: -4.5 BetMGM Moneyline: 1.57 BetMGM Over/Under: Over 228.5 The Houston Rockets have the worst record in the Western Conference and the second-worst in the whole NBA. But, they’ll play today’s game fresh off an unbelievable 124-103 victory against the Denver Nuggets on their home court last Tuesday. Jalen Green shone in that game, leading Houston with 32 points scored. Houston’s win over Denver set off a chain of surprising positive results for the Rockets over the last month, including victories over the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers, although they played all these games at home. For today’s game, they’ll be guests to the Hornets a position where they have the worst record in the league, with just six wins and 33 losses. After this match, the team will conclude their season with a visit to the Washington Wizards on Sunday. Charlotte Hornets VS Houston Rockets Winner Prediction The Hornets VS Rockets matchup is between two teams with the worst performance this season, but there are some factors you should consider. Although Houston won the Nuggets in their previous game, their defensive records are terrible, allowing the third-highest average of points to their opponents, with 118.8 per game, and having the worst turnover rate, with 16.1 turnovers per 100 possessions. These factors may be critical, which is why we believe that the Hornets may win today’s game. The match may be decided by the team with fewer slip-ups, as none of them stands out for their scoring ability.

Today’s game will be their last home match for the season. Unluckily for them, they haven’t played well on the home court, with a record of 20 wins and 19 losses. One main reason why the Pacers’ defense performed poorly this season was that their defense, which became the second-worst in the NBA, allowed 119.0 points per game. Indiana also conceded the third-highest average of rebounds to opponents, forfeiting 45.2 boards per game. It is left to be seen if Tyrese Haliburton will be present for today’s game, as he had been battling with ankle discomfort.

Besides that match, the Pistons lost 10 times in a row, and in four of those games, they conceded at least 120 points. For road games, they have the second-worst record in the NBA, with seven victories and 32 defeats. To add to this, they are the second-worst offensive team, with an average of 110.6 points per game, and third-worst in efficiency, with a point differential of -8.2. Jaden Ivey is one of Detroit’s young and upcoming players; he’s played 71 games this season. Ivey is gaining experience and scored 30 points on Tuesday against Miami Heat. MatchPlug Prediction Pacers VS Pistons will witness two eliminated teams with less-popular players play against each other. Both sides lack defensive power and this match may be a high-scoring one. Indiana may have been knocked out a few days ago, but they’ve proven to be a force to be reckoned with this season. Now, they’ll face a team with the worst record, making experts believe that they’ll emerge victorious. Final Prediction: Indiana Pacers Spread.

They were at that point on March 2nd but lost 14 of their 18 games since then. Washington is riding a four-game losing streak entering today’s matchup, with four of those losses coming by seven points. They lost to the Atlanta Hawks by 18 points in a road game on Wednesday, and couldn’t cover the spread as a 13-point underdog. Daniel Gafford the Center posted a double-double with a team-high 25 points and 10 rebounds, shooting 8 of 10 from the floor. Shooting guard Johnny Davis finished with 20 points, seven rebounds and three assists. The Wizards rank No.22 in the league in scoring, averaging 113.2 points per game. Three of their top scorers Bradley Beal, Kyle Kuzma, and Kristpas Porzingis are absent due to injuries. Having been eliminated from the playoffs race, the teams chose to rest those players. Washington will be rounding up the regular season after hosting Houston Rockets on Sunday afternoon.

They won seven out of 10 games from the beginning of March to March 22nd, they are now riding a three-game winning streak entering this game. Miami’s first two wins were against the Dallas Mavericks and Detroit Pistons before defeating the Philadelphia 76ers in a deafening blowout on Thursday night. They took a 10-point lead at the end of the first quarter and didn’t look back, winning 28 points in a match they almost led wire-to-wire.  Jimmy Butler the small forward scored 24 points and delivered 6 assists, shooting 9 of 12 from the floor. Point guard Tyler Herro had 24 points, 5 assists, and 4 rebounds, knocking down 5 of 8 from 3-point range. Miami has a slim chance of avoiding the Eastern Conference play-in tournament, due to them needing to win their final two matches and have Brooklyn Nets lost two of their games this weekend. Thursday’s win gave them the Southeast Division title, but that will no longer determine the top seeds in the playoffs. Kyle Lowry was questionable due to knee soreness, but he scored 11 points in 22 minutes. He has not played for more than 30 minutes in a game since scoring 36 points against Orlando Magic on March 11. The Miami Heat rank last place in the NBA in scoring (109.1) and is facing a Washington defense that is No.17 in points allowed per game (114.5). MatchPlug Prediction  The Miami Heat still have an outside shot at avoiding the Eastern Conference play-in tournament, which was enough to justify them playing all their key players on Thursday. They entered what is considered to be their most impressive wins of the season, defeating the Philadelphia 76ers as 2-point underdogs.  Miami should have no problems with motivation today, after they kept hope alive on Thursday, particularly as they’re riding the momentum wave presently. The Washington Wizards are tanking down the stretch, they’re resting all their key players and avoiding competitive games.  The Heat is 36-21 as a favourite this campaign and experts expect them to secure another win tonight in Wizards VS Heat. Final Prediction: Miami Heat Spread. Related Preview: NBA Expert Picks: Charlotte Hornets VS Houston Rockets Predictions Tonight

However, the Kings are still an offensive force. Matter of fact, they have the best-scoring offense in the league, generating 121.3 points per game. De’Aaron Fox, Domantas Sabonis, Kevin Huerter, Harrison Barnes, Keegan Murray, and Malik Monk are providing rich scoring contributions to Sacramento’s offense which is also second in the league overall this season with a 49.6 FG%. Sacramento will hope to take advantage of the Warriors’ struggles when they play on the road. Golden State has only 9-30 in road games this campaign.

Thompson is expected to return to duty for today’s matchup with the Kings. Regardless of his presence, the Warriors will want to exploit Sacramento’s suspect defense that allows 118.2 points per game on a defensive 56.2 eFG%, 26 and 27th in the league, respectively. MatchPlug Prediction  While the Golden State Warriors need to win this game, it’s still difficult to have faith in them when they play on the road.

Despite this, the Clippers are still a team that fights on the road, holding a 20-18 record after winning the Grizzlies on Wednesday night, and witnessing another stunning performance from Russell Westbrook with 36 points.  Betting On The Memphis Grizzlies Regular Season Record: 48-28 1XBet Spread: -6.5 1XBet Moneyline: 1.39 1XBet Over/Under: Over 232.5 BetMGM Spread: -6.5 BetMGM Moneyline: 1.35 Recently, the Memphis Grizzlies have been a formidable force or so it looked in their last few games, winning seven in a row. However, they did not face many strong teams. Their streak ended on Wednesday night in a game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Los Angeles raised the bar and sought a level of play that matches the second-best team in the Western Conference, and now the Grizzlies must prove that they can do incredible things by leveraging the great records they have at their home court, where they have won 33 of their last 38 games. MatchPlug Prediction  The game that happened on Wednesday between the Clippers and Grizzlies was one of the best offensive displays this campaign, not just because it was high-scoring, but because of the close fight during the game. Today’s match should have the same performance, with Memphis refusing to give up power, particularly on a court it has performed well. Plus, the Grizzlies’ offensive record is great, averaging 116.7 points per game. This could end in a high-scoring affair, especially against a team whose defense has been weak lately.

The game was significant as it highlighted the return of James Harden and Joe Embiid, who were out due to injuries in past matches. Philadelphia is the clear favourite to win today’s game because they have a good track record against Toronto and have great numbers playing on their home court, where they won 26 out of 37 games so far. Betting On The Toronto Raptors Regular Season Record: 38-38 1XBet Spread: +5.5 1XBet Moneyline: 3.124 1XBet Over/Under: Under 224.5 BetMGM Spread: +5.5 BetMGM Moneyline: 2.90 BetMGM Over/Under: Over 225.5 The Toronto Raptors come into today’s game with confidence after winning the Miami Heat 92-106 in their last matchup. This is their third consecutive win and they intend to keep this good stretch. But, things will get more challenging as they face a powerful opponent on the road. Furthermore, the Raptors struggled away, losing 24 out of 36 games they played. Despite this, Toronto has a good defense, ranking third-best in the league with an average of 111.6 points allowed per game. This will be their biggest asset going into the upcoming match. MatchPlug Prediction  Even with them not being in their best form, the 76ers are still one of the most powerful teams this season, proved by their ranking in the overall standings of the Eastern Conference. Adding Harden to the squad has greatly complimented the team and given it more ammo. With two of Philadelphia’s top players back, the team now has more chances to win against the Raptors who struggle with scoring an average of only 112.9 points per game. Due to this, backing the home team seems like the best choice for this game. Final Prediction: Philadelphia 76ers Spread.
