The 82-game marathon that is the NBA regular season is finally over and the third annual play-in tournament is upon us. And after seeing how fun the games were in last year’s tournament — the first in its current format — I’m fully on board and here for it. Not to mention, it’s just more games for us to bet on.
The first game between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Brooklyn Nets tips off a Tuesday double-header, with two more games on Wednesday. The winners of Tuesday’s games advance to the playoffs as the seventh seed in their respective conferences. The losers play again on Friday against the winners of Wednesday’s games to decide the eighth seed in each conference.
Now that that’s out the way, let’s get into to the games and who I like against the betting spreads.
