New York has won three straight and looks like the defending champion again. Milwaukee is 1-9 and has dropped six in a row. Almost all of the public money is on the Knicks.
The first meeting in Philadelphia since the 76ers came back from 3-1 down to knock Boston out of last spring’s playoffs. LeBron James and Tyrese Maxey lead Philly, while Jaylen Brown and the Celtics are out for revenge on a national stage.
Oklahoma City is 8-2 behind reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Portland is 6-3 and one of the biggest surprises in the West. This is also the first of back-to-back games between these teams at the Moda Center, which adds an interesting wrinkle for bettors.
Here’s the contrarian play to start your 10 days. The market will lean toward the Thunder because of their record and their MVP, but Portland has been strong at home and gets OKC at the end of a long night of travel and late tips. A competitive home team catching points against a public favorite is exactly the kind of spot worth backing.
Better yet, the back-to-back setup makes this a two-night opportunity. Use tonight’s token on the Blazers, then use Wednesday’s token on the rematch once you’ve seen how the first game plays out. If tonight’s bet loses, you’ll get the stake back as a bonus bet to use tomorrow.
Hard Rock’s offer rewards bettors who spread their action out. One token arrives each day, and each expires the day it’s issued. With the NBA playing almost every night and NBA Cup Friday coming up at the end of the week, there’s no shortage of places to use them.
Ten days of No Sweat Bets, starting with tonight’s NBA slate. New users can bet $5 and get $500 in No Sweat Bets with Hard Rock Bet on any NBA game.
