NBA Tuesday Night Picks are upon us this final week of November. We are lucky that BetOnline Vegas online sportsbook is so quick regarding the early numbers. The regular season is now more than a month old. Yes, games have been played, and some strange results have reared their ugly heads. Now, fans get to watch two solid games as the Warriors clash with the Mavericks, and the Clippers are on the road against the Trail Blazers.
NBA Tuesday Night Numbers | ||
---|---|---|
Golden State Warriors (EVEN) | -110 | -110 |
Dallas Mavericks | -110 | -100 |
Los Angeles Clippers | -110 | -110 |
Portland Trail Blazers (-2) | -110 | -110 |
Dallas has endured one odd start to the 2022-23 NBA season. There was a crazy intensity and arguably buzz even in training camp for a team that got to the Western Conference Final. The only problem was their start created quite a buzz. From there, Dallas struggled, and now they have lost four straight and seven of their previous ten games. So, is taking Dallas even a feasible idea for NBA Tuesday Night Picks?
Honestly, coach Jason Kidd is uncertain of what Dallas has and does not have. There is the feeling of coming so close and yet being so far. Dallas misfiring at home in the past several games bodes poorly, as this stretch has been rough. Fortunately or unfortunately, the Golden State Warriors come into town tonight looking to get back into a winning groove themselves.
The talk about the Mavericks not performing as a team is sometimes valid. Whether the offense or defense shows up, the two phases look out of sync compared to their first nine or ten games. Worse, against Milwaukee, Dallas allowed 124 points and were attacked from both the perimeter and inside the paint. The Celtics scored 125, Milwaukee popped in 120+, and what will the Warriors do on a short-slate Tuesday night?
Therefore, NBA Tuesday Night Picks examines the first possible wager. How do we bet on the Mavericks? That even moneyline is a number to at least ponder. The fun approach and way to increase bankroll may be to go for the under if it gets closer to 230 points. That is a solid number for bettors. Dallas giving up zero points may prove to be the primary bet here.
What about a few more NBA Tuesday night picks for the first TNT game? Think about how these teams have played in stark contrast to each other. There are some different wagers to consider for this night that one might not expect. Again, remember how Dallas started at home and now had to add Kemba Walker for depth. The Mavericks missing key ingredients err depth has become a major issue.
Meanwhile, Golden State righting the ship is huge here. They won seven of their last ten games, which includes three consecutive conquests. The Warriors got blitzed by more than 40 points against New Orleans, then beat Minnesota, Utah, and the Clippers. Sometimes this NBA season is just ridiculous to try and understand. Rolling with the punches becomes the best way to bet and wagering the Warriors if they get any points.
Granted, every team in the Western Conference knows the road still goes through Golden State. Again, throw the early record out the window as the Warriors start to rack up wins. Few teams switch on and off, quite like Golden State. Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green are still the best “big three”. Four championships cement that fact. Dallas still has a long, long way to go.
Finally, the one number betting experts look at is the following. While Bovada and BetOnline have stayed mostly at 226 or 227 with this game, other sites have been contemplating inching over higher. The possibility of seeing a 228 or 229 would cause one to move more toward the under. Consequently, the over is another bet, even at 226.5 for the NBA Tuesday Night Picks. Do not go any higher, though.
The NBA Tuesday Night Picks welcome a battle in Portland between the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Clippers. Wait, doesn’t this game have some star-power missing? Yes, Damian Lillard is still out with that mysterious right soleus strain. Gary Payton II and Keon Johnson will not play either. For the Clippers, Ivica Zubac, building quite a following, stamped his authority over the weekend with a colossal performance.
So, could Zubac finally be that missing piece that gets the Clippers on a deep playoff run? Okay, at VegasBetting, we are getting ahead of ourselves. In the short term, Zubac provides great complimentary scoring and rebounding that the Clippers need. Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, and John Wall are all out for tonight’s game in Portland. Talk about a MASH unit worth of injuries.
Yes, lately, part of the problem with betting on the NBA is the constant rotating lineups that teams are employing. Injuries keep surfacing and lingering. This makes it harder to follow the lineup, and changes can often occur at the last minute.
For the NBA Tuesday Night Picks, consider risking the Los Angeles Clippers getting two points. The Clippers winning outright is possible as their balance without Leonard and Paul is a little more adaptable. Portland lacks the same luxury with its missing pieces.
