NBA Saturday March 9th Multi Analysis
If the Dallas Mavericks were not currently on a three-match losing streak, they would have been a cheeky upset against the Magic, but because they have only won two of their last 10 matches, we will be siding with Orlando on this occasion.
Miami sits inside the top eight in the Eastern Conference and haven’t looked bad in the past week, winning three matches consecutively.
Cleveland however, is the second worst team in the conference and will be completely eliminated from playoffs contention before the end of the month.
With Joel Embiid sidelined for the 76ers, they have looked weak inside the paint, which has cost them many matches due to the weak defence.
The Rockets have young centre Clint Capela who is known for getting double-doubles at will.
The 76ers will be forced to play undersized against the rampaging Rockets this Saturday, making them incapable of stopping the fluid offence that James Harden, Clint Capela and Chris Paul formulate.
When the Warriors lost to the Celtics on Wednesday, head coach Steve Kerr challenged his players to be better.
The Nuggets have been one of the best teams in the league since last year, but they have recently fallen below the Warriors in the standings.
Now that Klay Thompson will return for Golden State, it will be very difficult to defeat them.
We are taking the long odds in this final leg because the Oklahoma City Thunder have more to prove in the match-up.
Russell Westbrook was embarrassed after the loss to the Timberwolves, which will be a huge motivator for the team, as we all know what Westbrook can produce on a good night.
Paul George was playing one of his first matches back from injury, which is why he was not as useful as his usual self, but now that the cobwebs have been blown off, he will be at his best to take on the Clippers.
