Wednesday Night Sports Betting Picks

It’s time for some more NBA betting as the sportsbook card for Wednesday is too enticing to pass up.  I went 3-1 last night so I’ll try to ride that hot streak as long as I can.

NBA betting: Philadelphia 76ers @ Washington Wizards

Sportsbook odds: 76ers -4.5

The 76ers are off a heartbreaking loss ot the New Jersey Nets a few days ago when Devin Harris hit a last second game-winner. The general expectation is that they will bounce-back but it’s hard to lay 4.5 points on the road with the 76ers.

Online betting pick: 76ers -4.5

NBA betting: Chicago Bulls @ New Jersey Nets

Sportsbook odds: Nets -1.5

The new-look Bulls thrived last night so why not ride it out some more? The Nets are one of the few teams in the NBA that don’t have a very good home-court advantage so the Bulls should be capable of an upset win.

Online betting pick: Bulls +1.5

NBA betting: Orlando Magic @ New York Knicks

Sportsbook odds: Magic -2.5

The New York Knicks have found their identity and while the pieces are not in place, they are getting better daily. The Magic are still adjusting to life without Jameer Nelson and back-to-back nights as a road favorite is not the cure.

Online betting pick: Knicks +2.5

NBA betting: Detroit Pistons @ New Orleans Hornets

Sportsbook odds: Hornets -8.5

The Pistons are a mess but the Hornets can’t usually be trusted to stomp on a bad team at home. I’ll give them another chance tonight.

Online betting pick: Hornets -8.5

NBA betting: Utah Jazz @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Sportsbook odds: Jazz -6.5

The Timberwolves are just hapless without Al Jefferson while the Jazz are streaking and finally healthy.

Online betting pick: Jazz -6.5
