We can always count on the NBA to provide satisfying returns for our live betting picks.
Detroit Pistons 96-128 Cleveland Cavaliers
The Cavaliers are still in top form after their thrilling duel with the Houston Rockets, and the Detroit Pistons could do nothing to stop King James’ rampage. LeBron’s triple-double of 16 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists were enough to trample any hopes of a comeback for the visitors.
Indiana Pacers 81-87 New York Knicks
The New York Knicks are far from making the playoffs but they refuse to give in. Carmelo Anthony and Derrick Rose mounted a fourth-quarter run that helped them stop Paul George and end the game as 81-87 winners. Myles Turner was the only other Pacer that did well, ending the game with 17 points and 12 rebounds.
Oklahoma City Thunder 122-104 Brooklyn Nets
Russell Westbrook put on a show at the Barclays Center, notching another triple-double as he led the Oklahoma City Thunder to a three-game winning streak. The Nets weren’t lacking in offensive power; it’s just that their defensive gaps pulled down whatever offensive grounds they are making.
Portland Trail Blazers 77-100 New Orleans Pelicans
Damian Lillard and the Trail Blazers started the game well, but the Pelicans may have finally found the winning formula as their two towers co-existed harmoniously. Both Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins had good games as they overpowered the Blazers. CJ McCollum’s poor shooting also helped the Pelicans win big.
Philadelphia 76ers 104-106 Golden State Warriors
There is trouble in paradise as the Golden State Warriors almost lost another home game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Dario Saric is showing us why he is worth the lottery pick the Sixers burned on him as he scored a team-high 25 points. Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson took 45 shots combined just to make 57 points.
They need to be more consistent if they want to return to the NBA Finals.
