The NBA playoffs are almost in view, but I don’t think that you should look too far ahead!
The regular season still has a lot to offer to sports betting fans as those who bet online for the Pelicans are dancing in joy right now!
Sure, the other games feature teams that are worth your time and attention, but the Pelicans just made a declaration with their play: they are out to beat the best teams and the steepest betting odds!
Phoenix Suns 97-112 Miami Heat
The Suns are crippled without the prowess of Eric Bledsoe, and the rejuvenated Miami Heat are more than happy to pounce on any vulnerabilities. The visitors were rendered helpless as Hassan Whiteside and Goran Dragic dominated the game.
Memphis Grizzlies 82-95 New Orleans Pelicans
It was Boogie night for the Pelicans after a career performance from DeMarcus Cousins. The big man put up 41 points and 17 rebounds, numbers that were last achieved by Kevin Love on the Timberwolves. Solid support from Anthony Davis and Jrue Holiday sealed the W for the Pels.
Golden State Warriors 112-87 Dallas Mavericks
The Warriors are finally rediscovering the form that helped them snag 73 wins last season. The Dubs played efficient basketball, converting 55 percent of their shots and giving out 34 assists. The Mavericks could do nothing but watch.
San Antonio Spurs 100-93 Minnesota Timberwolves
Karl-Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins put up a great fight but were trumped by LaMarcus Aldridge and the San Antonio Spurs. Aldridge had an excellent night that will better their chances of stealing the first seed from the Dubs. Kawhi Leonard was also silently putting up another great night, with three steals and a block to go with his 22 points.
Milwaukee Bucks 93-90 Portland Trail Blazers
Damian Lillard led a late push to squander Milwaukee’s lead and almost come away with the victory. However, Giannis Antetokounmpo put on a show with his all-around performance to prevent another upset from happening. Khris Middleton did enough scoring to help the Bucks overcome the hungry Blazers.
Los Angeles Clippers 133-109 Los Angeles Lakers
There was no doubt on who will win this game from tip-off.
While the young starting five did well enough, Luke Walton didn’t have any answer to the potent bench of the Clippers. Chris Paul and the rest of the starting lineup had a field day at the Staples Center despite playing very limited minutes.
