NBA Week 5 Basketball Predictions: results and bets

The NBA Basketball week started off great, with a perfect Monday where we cash in on the prop bet on Steph Curry (26 points despite the Warriors stopping at 99 points in total in the defeat at LAC) e the perfect read about Toronto, with the Raptors going from underdogs to +4.5 who win against the Pacers, in an Under game. The Canadians remain with a negative 3-12 record, but with an excellent 10-5 ATS in betting (O/U 9-6).

NBA Betting Trends: Wizards and 76ers the worst for bettors. Atlanta from Over

In the last week in the NBA, Over games prevailed at 54.5% compared to those from Under which stopped at 45.5%. In ATS (handicap bets) the best picks were those on home favorites who covered 57.6% of the spreads.

Among the individual teamsand the Brooklyn Nets are confirmed as the best team in betting with 10-3-1 ATS, followed by the Cleveland Cavaliers, who are still undefeated with a record of 15-0, but also an excellent 11-4 ATS in betting, which allowed them to overtake the Golden State Warriors with 9-4 ATS. Cleveland is also the team that is winning with the largest average margin, +12.33 points, even better than the OKC Thunder (+11.93), Boston Celtics (+10.14) and the Warriors themselves (+9.54).

News among the worst teams to bet on, there are two, they are the Washington Wizards (and here no surprise with the capital team which is also the worst ever with an average difference of -14.77 points per game) and the Philadelphia 76ers (here however the disappointment is great), both with 3-10 ATS, which worsen the 4-10 ATS of the New Orleans Pelicans, always very limited by injuries. The Phoenix Suns (5-10 ATS), Milwaukee Bucks (4-9-1 ATS) and Minnesota Timberwolves (5-9 ATS) also disappoint.

On the points the best team from Over is always the Atlanta Hawks (O/U 11-4)ahead of Indiana (O/U 10-4) and Cleveland (O/U 10-5). For low scores instead the best team from Under is that of the Charlotte Hornets with O/U 4-8-1ahead of Milwaukee (O/U 5-9) and Utah (O/U 5-8). Many Under also in LA Clippers (O/U 5-10) and Detroit Pistons (O/U 5-11) games.

NBA Big Match of the Week (November 19-25, 2024)

We see the most interesting challenges and big matches that await us this weekfrom Tuesday 19 to Tuesday 25 November.

NBA TUESDAY 19 NOVEMBER

A Tuesday from 6 NBA games and we start very strong with a clash at the top of the Eastern Conference: Boston Celtics-Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavs will try to keep their unbeaten season alive, but it won’t be easy at the TD Garden and in fact the guests are the underdogs with a +4.5 point spread in support. In the West watch out San Antonio Spurs-OKC Thunderwith the guests favored for a double-digit victory, as in the previous home match on 30 October with 105-93 for SGA and his teammates against Wembanyama and his associates.

NBA WEDNESDAY 20 NOVEMBER

Other 8 NBA games and the Cavs still engaged in back to back in Cleveland Cavaliers-New Orleans Pelicans. Also to be followed carefully Milwaukee Bucks-Chicago Bullswith Giannis and his teammates having to wake up and who had already lost 122-133 against the Bulls on October 25th at home. Very interesting too Phoenix Suns-NY Knicks. The Suns without Durant and Beal (also problems for Nurkic) are struggling with 4 defeats in a row while the Knicks can achieve 4 consecutive wins.

NBA THURSDAY 21 NOVEMBER

On Thursdays we only have 4 match NBA, off with Charlotte Hornets-Detroit Pistons, not the best show, at least on paper, between two weak Eastern Conference franchises who have already faced each other at the beginning of the month, again in Charlotte, with 108-107 for the Hornets. The most awaited match is played in the night in the West, with LA Lakers-Orlando Magic. The guests, led by Wagner, have achieved 6 consecutive victories despite the heavy absences of Carter Jr and especially Banchero. However, at the time of writing, the Lakers are also coming off 5 wins in a row; it will be an interesting challenge.

NBA FRIDAY NOVEMBER 22

They return on Friday 8 matches valid for the NBA Cup. We start east with Philadelphia 76ers-Brooklyn Nets while in Washington Wizards-Boston Celtics we’re almost talking about a spin, and there shouldn’t be any problems for the Celtics, despite the trip (Boston has won the last 5 matches, including 122-102 in Washington at the end of October). Also in the East they are also in the field Milwaukee Bucks-Indiana Pacerswith Haliburton and his teammates who have been a thorn in Milwaukee’s side, given that they eliminated the Bucks in the last playoffs and this is the first clash of the season against Giannis and his team. In the West the most interesting challenge is Denver Nuggets-Dallas MavericksJokic again against Doncic. In the first clash on November 10, again in Denver, the Nuggets won 122-120 with a superlative triple double from Jokic (37 points, 18 rebounds and 15 assists) while 24 points from Doncic and above all 43 points from Irving were not enough for the Mavs.

NBA SATURDAY 23 NOVEMBER

The American basketball weekend begins with a Saturday with 7 games. There are no real unmissable clashes if we remove the last match of the night in the West: LA Lakers-Denver Nuggets. Denver has dominated with a 9-1 in the last meetings against LAL (7-3 ATS in betting) and this is the first clash of the year between Jokic and James.

NBA SUNDAY 24 NOVEMBER

Sunday with 6 games and at a convenient Italian time there is a big match to follow on: Boston Celtics-Minnesota Timberwolves. Minnesota is performing less than expected in this start and has lost 8 of the last 10 previous matches against Boston, although in these matches the Timberwolves have been better for bettors, with a 6-4 ATS against the Celtics. During the night we also report Miami Heat-Dallas Mavericks but also Philadelphia 76ers-LA Clippersthe ex Paul George’s match.

NBA MONDAY NOVEMBER 25

The new week begins with a rich Monday with 9 NBA games. The reigning champions are still on the pitch and Jokic and his teammates are still on the pitch among the most interesting challenges of the day: Boston Celtics-LA Clippers e Denver Nuggets-NY Knicks. Golden State Warriors-Brooklyn Nets is also interesting and the clash between them ends Sacramento Kings-OKC Thunder.

Antepost odds: the latest updates for ring and MVP

Compared to last week it hasn’t changed one iota the antepost odds for the final victory of the ring by the reigning champions, always favorites @3.60, the Boston Celticsbut the OKC Thunder from the West are slightly closer, going from 5.75 to @5.50, as are the NY Knicks who are placed in 3rd place and go from 9.50 to @9 times the stake. The Dallas Mavericks are confirmed @11 while the most important drop is that of the Cleveland Cavaliers who go from 19 to @13 in odds for the ring.

Nikola Jokic returned to dominate for regular season MVP who not only confirms himself as the favorite on this board, but compared to last week sees his odds drop from 3.25 to the current @3.10 while rising from 3.30 to @3.80 Shai Gilgeous Alexander. However, the share continues to fall (rightly). Jayson TatumBoston star who drops further from last week’s 6.50 to this week’s @5.75 as he moves away Luka Doncic which in seven days goes from 7.50 to @10, as well as Anthony Edwards which takes the same step as last week’s 9.50 shrimp @11 for Ant-Man.

In the pre-season we have already played against Philadelphia su Under 51.5 vittorie in regular season, suspecting Embiid’s usual physical problems, and with the arrival of another player often in the infirmary, Paul George. Taking a look at the boards for playoff qualification we find the 76ers out of the post-season at high odds @4 times the stake on Bet365despite currently being second to last in the East. Philadelphia will certainly improve from here to the end, but missing the playoffs could have value at that price. If you haven’t taken Under win regular season (at the moment the 76ers lines are off), give this gamble a little thought.
