So many Masters Boosts are out there. I will be doing a full write up and breakdown of that soon.
We are into the home stretch of the NBA. I am going to breakdown motivations as I have mentioned before. There are so many people that are resting, hurt, or just not trying to win at the moment.
All the books have almost given up on NBA boosts. It feels odd considering how compelling the last few weeks should be. I hope that they start to pick up for the playoffs and the Masters.
PHI at IND +12
The Pacers are not trying to win. The Sixers can still be the 1-4 seed, but 2-4 is the most likely. Even if the Sixers do not try they should win, but we have seen them struggle before as large road favorites.
CLE at ORL +8.5
The Cavs are almost locked into the seven seed. There is no motivation for Orlando as they have ruled people out at halftime the last week.
HOU at BRK -17.5
Houston is tanking and Brooklyn needs to win to avoid playing two road games to make the playoffs. This money line is hilarious.
CHA at MIA -5.5
Miami is very close to locking up the no.1 seed. Charlotte is battling Brooklyn for the 9th seed and a home game in the play in.
ATL at TOR -4
Both teams are playing for seeding. No one is sitting at this point.
WAS at MIN -11.5
Wizards are tanking and dead. Minnesota can climb out of the play-in, but they are 1.5 games back of Utah to do just that.
POR at OKC -4
Both teams want to lose. This should be interesting.
MIL at CHI +4.5.
Both teams playing for seeding.
SAS at DEN -7
Now that we know Murray was actually sick and lost a bunch of weight, the Spurs faltering makes sense. The Lakers need Denver to win here. Denver is almost assuredly going to be the fifth or sixth seed.
MEM at UTA -5.5
Ja is still out, but Memphis keeps winning. Memphis is playing for nothing. Utah can move up to the 5th seed.
NOP at SAC +8
Kings are dead. Pelicans can hold on to the 9th spot.
LAL at PHO -11.5
The Suns do not need this game. The Lakers need this game. The Suns can help keep the Lakers away from them in the first round though.
Until the games start, let’s have some fun and build the pile!

Basketball Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
Giannis to score 34+ points +160 (DK)
Giannis’s point prop is set to 31.5.
Giannis to score 35+ pays +146 on FD so this is a boost. I am passing on this. I think the Bulls have struggled and Zach LaVIne has now been listed as questionable. There is a chance Bucks roll here and Giannis does not get there.
CLE/CHI/UTA to all win +425 (FOX)
This should pay +462. Easy pass.
Let’s Get Weird
LAL +11.5
LeBron Over Points when it is posted I am guessing 30.5?
I know what you are thinking. This is necessary win game for the Lakers. They are massive dogs, but LeBron is also going for the scoring title, even if no one says it aloud. No Laker props are listed, but I am on LeBron’s over. I expect him to play. (LeBron is out and the Lakers are going to end tonight. Stay away now!)
