As we get ready to head into the New Year, we are fast approaching the midway point of the NBA season. Some clear favorites are emerging, but a lot can still change between now and the end of the season, so you can bet that none of the top teams in the league right now are resting on their laurels. We have another busy week ahead of us and a lot of betting opportunities to choose from. After going through the schedule for the next few days, we have a number of games that we think are ones that you should watch and wager on. All told, we have 4 games that we think are well worth taking a look at when you go ahead and make your bets on the NBA Odds.
Top Week 11 Betting Matchups and Picks for this Week
Indiana Pacers at New Orleans Pelicans – Monday
You quickly glance at the standing and it would appear that these two teams are miles apart, but that is not really the case. The Pacers are 17-16 and currently in the play-in section in the Eastern Conference. The Pelicans have just 3 more wins than Indiana, but that is good enough to have them sitting at #2 in the Western Conference. The Pelicans are in as a home favorite for this one, but it is worth mentioning that they lost 129-122 in their earlier meeting this season with the Pacers, with that one played in Indiana. Can the Pacers spring the upset or at least keep this one close?
Denver Nuggets at Sacramento Kings – Tuesday
We have a Western Conference battle as one of the highlights of the Tuesday night schedule. The Nuggets are rolling right now and have won 4 in a row to cement their spot at the top of the conference. The Kings are down in the #6 spot and have been playing .500 ball over the past 10 games. They will be looking to stay above the play-in line, but this is definitely a tough trip. The Nuggets have proven to be less than invincible on the road, going 9-8 away from home, so there might be a chance that the Kings are competitive in this one.
Brooklyn Nets at Atlanta Hawks – Wednesday
There are few teams in the league hotter than the Brooklyn Nets right now. They come into this week on an 8-game winning streak that has moved them all the way up to the #2 seed in the West, just 2 ½ games out of the top spot. The Hawks, on the other hand, are just 4-6 in their last 10 and have slipped into the play-in section of the conference standings. They are, though, coming off a win to close out the weekend. These two have met already this season, with Brooklyn winning 120-116 in their own building. Might we get another close one here?
LA Clippers at Boston Celtics – Thursday
There is going to be an element of revenge in this one, with the Celtics looking to wash away the bad taste of a 113-93 loss to the Clippers in their previous meeting this season. After a bit of a stumble, the Celtics are back on track, closing out last week with back-to-back wins to get to 24-10 and the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference. The Clippers have been a little inconsistent of late, but they are still at 19-15 on the season, which has them at #5 in the Western Conference. This should be a fun one with plenty of scoring, so watch the point total.
