1. Raptors-Nets over 239.5
The Nets hitting over 120 in a game is like any other team reaching 100 points. It’s mostly likely going to happen, barring a very bad performance. Add in that the Raptors have a better-than-average offense and that the Nets still can’t stop anyone, and you’ve got an easy over here.
2. Clippers -6.5 vs. Celtics
The Clippers are 8-3 against the spread in their last 11, and are just returning from a long and impressive road trip. The Celtics have lost three of four. I’m comfortable going chalk here with LA rolling.
3. Hornets +8.5 vs. Jazz
The Jazz are the best team in the NBA at the moment, but they’re also on the second half of a back-to-back and will be playing their third game in four days. Terry Rozier will be back for the Hornets, who have won three out of their last five games, all of which have been against 2020 playoff teams.
