NBA Picks December 13, 2023
Philadelphia 76ers vs. Detroit Pistons
Tipoff: 7:00 pm EST
Spread: 76ers -12
Total: 233
It is no secret that the Pistons are the worst team in the NBA and are on a 20 T-W-E-N-T-Y game-losing streak! Now, they have the honor of welcoming one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference, the Philadelphia Sixers, to town.
The 76ers offense has been humming this season, as they are the second-best offensive-rated team this year. Further, the 76ers are averaging 118.3 points per game on the road. Lastly, the Pistons rank bottom fourth in the league in defensive rating. I expect the 76ers offense to find success. Not going to overthink it.
Best Bet: 76ers TT Over 122.5
Brooklyn Nets vs. Phoenix Suns
Tipoff – 10:00 pm EST
Spread: Suns -2
Total: 227
The Brooklyn Nets are heading to the desert to take on the Phoenix Suns in a game that is significant to a few players. This will be the first game for Mikal Bridges against the Suns since he got traded to the Nets. Additionally, Kevin Durant will play in this game after missing the past several games with an injury.
I am expecting plenty of points to be scored in this game. First, when the Suns are home favorites this season, the Over is 8-1 with an average of 233 points per game. Additionally, both teams are below league average in defensive rating. Lastly, in back-to-back games this season, the Suns are 3-0 the Over. This total feels a bit conservative to me.
Best Bet: Nets/Suns Over 227
YTD Record: 20-17 (54.1%)
