I'd say I'm right with OG on this one, the Pelicans seem to be on another level entirely, and he's pointed out even without Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson, CJ McCollum is literally just enough to facilitate a win for the Pelicans.

I'd also love to take the Clippers spread, but I'd have to wait until the lineup is available before making my call, or I'll just settle for the overs without second thoughts, due to how heavy the Spurs have been allowing into the net on their own end of the court.
Looks like I was wrong. The Magic came through with a rare victory. Yet another example of how there’s never a safe bet. McCollum had a bad shooting night and the Magic shot great. That was enough to make the difference. A great bet if you can predict it. I’d still bet against the Magic versus anybody else in the NBA though. They’re obviously tanking.
