Cleveland to Claim Comfortable Victory

Cleveland will be looking for another victory when Hawks are in town this week. Cavaliers are riding high at the top of the Eastern Conference, while Atlanta sit ninth. As expected, the hosts are the strong favourites to get the win.

Kenny Atkinson’s boys have been the real deal in the NBA this season, winning 38 times. Cavaliers go into this one having won the last two, though they did suffer three straight defeats before the wins against Detroit Pistons and Miami Heat.

Atlanta have lost six on the bounce, and this will be another tough test for the team from Georgia. Back Cleveland to win -12.5 at 2.26.

Lakers to Cruise to Victory in the Capital

Los Angeles Lakers make the midweek trip to the capital to face Washington. Wizards have lost every game since beating Chicago Bulls on New Year’s Day. Can the home team snap the losing streak against Lakers?

After losing a staggering 40 times this season, Washington prop up the Eastern Conference table. Los Angeles are fifth in the West with a 26-19 record. Lakers are looking to get back to winning ways after losing in Philadelphia.

Wizards may be at home, but the visitors should cruise to victory in the capital. Take a punt on Los Angeles to win -9.5 at 2.06.

In-Form Trail Blazers to Win Again

Trail Blazers and Magic do battle at Moda Center in midweek. Portland languish in 13th place in the Western Conference after a tough season. Orlando are sixth in the Eastern section with a 24-24 record.

Trail Blazers’ form has picked up since the turn of the year, with the win against Milwaukee Bucks being their fifth victory in sixth. In contrast, Orlando have lost six of seven. Our money is going on the hosts here at 2.70.

Portland Trail Blazers Win – 2.70
