Detroit can find a very comfortable score against teams that do not have much presence in defense, especially Portland. I think that Detroit will be playing attack-weighted rather than defense-oriented because of finding a comfortable score. 214.5 over.
Detroit will lose to Boston in the final game after a 2-game winning streak. Portland has lost 4 of the last five games. In the last game, they lost to Toronto. My guess is we will watch a game with a few points.

Even with the addition of DeMarcus Cousins, looks like it was erasing all desires of some fans and speculators if New Orleans Pelicans will be able to enter the playoffs (it was posted here before that they are now a West contender lol).
Well we can see an active production for Cousins alongside with the monster performance of Anthony Davis but it needs more pump from their teammates and hopefully they will use this season as a warmup for next season target. They must consider getting some good players and make a revamp at their current lineup.
Its not all over for the Pelicans, they still can make it to the playoffs. Cousins and Davis together combined to about 70 points and they just need a good players around them. If they cant find good scorers, they can get some good defenders to stop the PG's and SG's of the opponents from scoring. Holiday needs to shine and Pelicans should experiment with their bench and call in some free agents giving them weekly basis contract or something.Well we can see an active production for Cousins alongside with the monster performance of Anthony Davis but it needs more pump from their teammates and hopefully they will use this season as a warmup for next season target.

I will consider that over for about 95% chance, why?
Pelicans played 60 games now and they only have 22 remaining games. They are sitting at 13th spot now at the West and they have to climb 5 spots to get on the top 8. It's kinda hard that even those rank 9th and 10th are struggling. To make room for the Pelicans at playoffs, those 5 teams that sitting at ranks 8-12 must be loss in all of their games but it's impossible to happen obviously.
Cousins arrival might be late but they have a big chance next season and that is really possible . That's why it's good for them to use this season to make more compatibility with Cousins plays.
Definitely agree. Playoffs spot for the Pelicans is about 1% chance for me.
And the teams you are talking that needs to be loss in their remaining games are (starting from 8th)'; Denver Nuggets, Sacramento Kings, Portland Trail Blazers, Dallas Mavericks and Minnesota Timberwolves, quite impossible to happen so a bye bye now for playoffs spots to the NOP.
But watch out next season, as they will be one of the top 8 in the West and that is surely will happen.
Phoenix rookie F Dragan Bender (ankle) is out of a walking boot and hopes to return by mid-March. The Grizzlies rank 4th in defensive efficiency, while the young Suns rank 27th in that category. Take Memphis to grab an easy home victory on Tuesday.
Golden State Warriors Vs Washington Wizards
This is the first time Kevin Durant will return to play near his hometown since he joined the Warriors. His performance are usually better in " important" games like the one in Oklahoma. In away games, Warriors offense is very strong but they lack in defense. We should not underestimate John Wall although he is not scoring as many points as he hope, I have a feeling he will be keen to impress against the Warriors at home. Both teams have a good chance of scoring many points. My bet is on over 229.5 points.
The Warriors rank 1st in offensive efficiency, while the Wizards rank 9th in that category. Look for both teams to push the tempo and for this game to go over the high total Tonight.

Heat @ Mavericks:
Both teams have been trying to dig themselves out of their struggles this season but have been unable to bring in a winning record. Looking straight to this game, the Heat are coming in slightly favored, but the Mavericks’ rhythm and home advantage will be too much for the Heat to overcome. Tonight the focus will be on the total, as both teams hold a similar defensive level, the Total of the game will go over and mavs win.

It looks like Heat conquered with Mavs with their past game. I think this would be a revenge game for the Mavs since their past game is that close. But it looks like both teams are playing good for this season and I'm not a fan anymore of Heat actually I'm a fan of Mavs since I was young but it looks like the league is getting harder for them.
, curry and barnes , they really have making some upset maybe curry is now bringing his career as well just need some time
and new playmates that will help him up.
So this game is a revenge game for the Mavs. Not you mate that is being comfortable when Nowitzki is going to play. Even me, I've his fan since my highschool days and I'm trying to imitate his moves though I'm not that tall guy. And it looks like they have their very own Curry that assuming made their team stronger.
Dallas upset some big teams at home even in their crap days, Miami's defeat wasn't exactly a surprise neither is a shame for them
I don't see it as an upset although the Dallas are home dogs, they deserved the win because they played better. Look at the coaching, they are both great coaches who have won championship already so it's just a fair game. The big upset that happen tonight was with Pacers beating the Rockets who's giving a -10 points. Honestly, they ruined my parlay with a good payout of 0.5 BTC, I bet on the -10 and over 230. It was an 8 leg parlay actually, with only 0.001 bet.
while pacers is really under rated even they are really a strong team but like what you have said they are inconsistent sometimes they win and sometimes even just playing against weak team they also loses.

Tonight, only one team will enter and leave the court as the Pacers will be no match for the Rockets who have been playing at one of the best levels in the NBA. Coming into this game, the performance of the Rockets has been spectacular, including the way the James Harden has taken the leadership of the team. Expect a blowout by the Rockets where the Pacers won have any chance in a one-sided affair. i will take Rockets to win and cover ATS.

Minnesota Timberwolves Vs Sacramento Kings
Timberwolves should win this game easily with Wiggins and Towns in their team. The wolves were unlucky to lose when they scored 130 points at Houston. In the first meeting between both teams this season, Kings won the Timberwolves 109-105 at Minnesota. Two of the Kings players who scored 57 points then, Cousins and Rudy Gay, will not be playing this time round. I am going with Timberwolves -5.
This Kings traded away the only good player on their team and got back no immediate help - that is big problem against young and talented Minnesota tonight. Kings can't stop anyone and don't score easily - take the road favorite T-Wolves to roll tonight.Timberwolves should win this game easily with Wiggins and Towns in their team.

This will be easy game for Minnesota they will win, kings are in some management issue but do think they can do anything right now.
The Kings are just an so unpredictable team and without Cousins now which was the player they solely relied on. And from the last time I placed a bet on them to win, they ended up losing that game miserably.
