Philadelphia 76ers vs. LA Lakers Analysis & Spread Pick 1/15/23
The last time these two met it went to overtime and that was in Philly. The 76ers are playing well but may be without Tobias Harris and the Lakers catching points may be the prudent polay here. Get our statistical breakdown plus free pick against the spread.
LA Lakers vs. OKC Thunder Pick
The Lakers own a stout defensive front led by…Javale McGee! Yes – Javale McGee! But at the same time, they ain’t the ’85 Bears, and we can expect that the 1-2 punch from Westbrook and Paul George will be enough to penetrate that wall. But can they cover the sportsbook’s 10 point spread? KC has the NBA pick.
Pick: New Orleans Pelicans vs. Golden State Warriors
After doling out a standard-for-him 46 points and 14 rebounds on Monday, the Brow faces a much tougher opponent tonight. While a bad game for AD is a great game for 98% of the rest of the league, he can’t be anything less than excellent if the Pelicans want any chance of winning. It could be worse, the game could be next week when his old pal Demarcus is at the five. KC has the NBA pick.
Toronto Raptors vs. Boston Celtics Pick
The Raptors extended their winning-streak to five games when they defeated the Washington Wizards in over time in Washington on Sunday. Will they be too tired to take on the Cs or should we expect that momentum to carry over in Boston? Keith Franks has your pick.
NBA Pick: Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Philadelphia 76ers
The Sixers enjoy playing a physical brand of basketball. It is for this reason that Philly is known as one of the best rebounding teams on both sides of the ball. Offensively, the Sixers generate a fourth-ranked 47.3 offensive boards per game. The 76ers average a sixth-ranked 43.5 boards per contest in terms of defensive rebounding. How much does this edge on the glass matter here in a game that bookies have Sixers -6? Keith Franks offers his free NBA pick!
