NBA Preview: March 10

3 years ago - Sportingbase

We are now one third into the third month of the calendar year of 2023. Here are the three NBA teams we like the most on March 10.

Atlanta Hawks @ Washington Wizards– 7PM ET

The Hawks are the .500 mark at 33 wins and 33 losses. The Wizards are 10th in the East at 31 wins and 35 losses.

My Take:

Even though Atlanta has the better record than Washington, one must realize that Atlanta is only 15-20 on the road. I like Washington at +1 here. Atlanta beat the Wizards 122-120 in Washington on Wednesday, but the Hawks had significant difficulty stopping Kristaps Porzingis, who had 43 points. Also go with the over with the line at 238. That is four points less than the number of points the Hawks and Wizards scored on Wednesday, and the Hawks have been involved in games with 238 points or more in five of their last seven contests.

Cleveland Cavaliers @ Miami Heat–8 PM ET

The Cavaliers are fourth in the East at 42 wins and 26 losses. The Heat are seventh in the East at 35 wins and 32 losses.

My Take:

Even though Cleveland is 6.5 games ahead of Miami in the standings, the Heat are much better at home (21-13) than Cleveland is on the road (14-19). That is why I like the Heat to cover the spread at +1.5. I also really like the over here with the line at 214.5. The Heat have been involved in games with 215 points or more in four of their last five games.

Toronto Raptors @ Los Angeles Lakers–10:30 PM ET

The Raptors are ninth in the East at 32 wins and 35 losses. The Lakers are ninth in the West at 32 wins and 34 losses.

My Take:

Even though the Raptors have lost their last two games, they played the Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Clippers tough. That is why I like Toronto here at +2.5. The Raptors will also get a mental boost with the fact LeBron is out with a foot injury. I also like the over line at 224.5. The Raptors have been involved in games with more than 225 points in three of their last four games.
