Max’s NBA Bet Picks for 1/25/21

Bets

San Antonio at New Orleans

NBA Bet Picks for 1/25/21

Spread: NO -3 (Bet San Antonio)

Total: 222 (Lean Over – 223)

Predicted Score: Spurs 112 – Pelicans 111

Overview: Not sure if it’s time to raise the alarm for the Pelicans, but after 3 straight losses – including an embarrassing one to the T-Wolves on Saturday – I do think this is a team that needs a shake-up. That could be admitting the mistake of hiring Stan Van Gundy or it could be a trade (possibly of Lonzo Ball).

Ball and Bledsoe are one of the more underwhelming backcourts in the league. While Ball’s scoring is up a bit, he’s shooting poorly – including some terrible 3 point shot selection. Trading Ball – especially since it doesn’t seem like they plan on re-signing him – for someone like Lauri Markkanen from the Bulls – would allow Bledsoe to be the primary point guard and avoid forcing time for a player who just isn’t a fit.

As for the Spurs, they bounced back yesterday after losing 2 in a row. While I am hesitant to bet on them in a back to back, this is the only game I like on the day and I have to have a little faith DeMar DeRozan and crew. Betting $20 on the Spurs.

Max’s Salty NHL Bets for 1/25/2021

A 1-2 day for bets which sucks since I was 7-4 in my overall picks. Time to bet them all! I am 49-35 on my NHL picks this season but only 14-15 in bets. That puts me in the red for $56 on the season. Only one game on the board today.

 

Ottawa Senators (134) at Vancouver Canucks (-148)

Pick: Lean Vancouver

Notes: My metrics have Vancouver winning this one but with the money coming in on them, the line has gotten better. So I am going to avoid a potential trap here and just lean them. The Canucks defense is one of the worst (if not, the worst) in the league so that gives even the worst of offenses a chance to score on them.
