NBA Week 17 Over Under Picks

Oklahoma City Thunder at Los Angeles Lakers

When: Tuesday, February 7th, 2023
Where: crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, CA
NBA Week 17 O/U Pick: Over

Time: 10:00 PM EST
TV: TNT

From Jan. 18 through Feb. 4, the Lakers played in 4 over and 6 under games. What’s interesting is that the over has happened in 2 of the Lakers’ last 3.

Los Angeles lost to New Orleans 126-131 on Feb. 4 in a game that went over the 232.5 total. The over is 2-1 in Oklahoma City’s last couple of games as well.

Over is the pick.

Philadelphia 76ers at Boston Celtics

When: Wednesday, February 8th, 2023
Where: TD Garden, Boston, MA
NBA Week 17 O/U Pick: Over

Time: 7:30 PM EST
TV: TNT

Boston averages 117.7 points per game, ranking third in the league. The Celtics’ defense has rocked, though, which is why oddsmakers set over-under totals that the Celtics blew by in 3 of their last 4 games.

On Feb. 4, the Celtics went cold, which is why Phoenix beat Boston 106-94. No doubt, the Celtics should pick it up versus the rival 76ers.

This projects as an over game.

Chicago Bulls at Brooklyn Nets

When: Thursday, February 9th, 2023
Where: Barclays Center, Brooklyn, NY
NBA Week 17 O/U Pick: Over

Time: 7:30 PM EST
TV: TNT

From Jan. 19 through Feb. 4, the Chicago Bulls played in 2 over games and 6 under contests. The trend is strong to the under for sure.

But the trend may have broken. The Feb. 4 game, a 129-121 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers, went over. Not only that, but the Nets traded Kyrie Irving, which means oddsmakers might skew Brooklyn totals to far to the under.

There’s a good chance this goes over.

Cleveland Cavaliers at New Orleans Pelicans

When: Friday, February 10th, 2023
Where: Smoothie King Center, New Orleans, LA
NBA Week 17 O/U Pick: Over

Time: 10:00 PM EST
TV: ESPN/ESPN+

As of Feb. 5, Cleveland has played in 6-of-10 under games. The Cavaliers average 111.7 points per and allow around 106 each game.

Oddsmakers in the industry have for sure compensated for the fact the Cavs don’t score a ton and don’t allow a lot of points. In fact, oddsmakers have over compensated. The Pels head into the week having played in 4-of-5 over matchups.

The over compensation to the under on Cavs games should continue, which is why this goes over.

Los Angeles Lakers at Golden State Warriors

When: Saturday, February 11th, 2023
Where: Chase Center, San Francisco, CA
NBA Week 17 O/U Pick: Over

Time: 8:30 PM EST
TV: ABC/ESPN+

Neither squad plays much defense. The Lakers allow 118.4 points per game, ranking twenty-seventh in the league. Golden State allows 118.2 points per, ranking twenty-sixth in the NBA.

It will be difficult for oddsmakers to set a line that doesn’t lead to this going over.

Memphis Grizzlies at Boston Celtics

When: Sunday, February 12th, 2023
Where: TD Garden, Boston, MA
NBA Week 17 O/U Pick: Under

Time: 2:00 PM EST
TV: ABC/ESPN+

Memphis has played in 8-of-10 under games. The Grizzlies rank first in field goal percentage allowed at less than 46%.

Boston battles Memphis after taking on Philly and Charlotte. The C’s could bounce in this on the offensive end.

Under entices.
