Welcome to our NBA favorite of the day pick page. Here you'll find one daily prediction against the spread in which we use an NBA favorite as our selection. We're not a huge fan of laying points against the spread in the NBA as it's not a real great long term strategy, so to offset the risk we'll be real stingy about releasing plays and you will find us passing quite a bit in an effort to keep our heads above water units-wise with our record. The bottom line is that there simply aren't as many valuable favorite betting opportunities as there are with the dogs. We don't like forcing the action hence why we'll be so picky.
We're not promising fat numbers with this particular play and frankly we'd be happy to crank out 55-56% on these picks. Simply put, picking NBA favs is like swimming with the sharks. NOT ADVISED! Nonetheless, we're up to the challenge and look forward to giving bookies the fits with our winning picks. Enjoy!
