NBA Picks October 24: Warriors and Kings Headline Action

The NBA season has tipped off and the quest has begun towards the 2021-2022 NBA Finals. There are several games scheduled for October 24 with the Warriors and Kings highlighting play.

Golden State Warriors versus Sacramento Kings

Golden State travels to Sacramento in a Western Conference battle. Both teams are “burning hot” on the Team Strength Oscillator and the Warriors have a +26 to +12 advantage on the Power Ranking Indicator. The Score Predictor has the Warriors winning by the score of 119-111 with 67 percent confidence. The teams have been trending in games on opposite sides of the line, so avoid the over/under bet. The Warriors won three of the five games between the teams last season and I like them in this as well.

Charlotte Hornets versus Brooklyn Nets

The Nets opened the season with a win and they host the Charlotte Hornets. Brooklyn has a +17 to 0 advantage on the Power Ranking Indicator and “average down” versus “ice cold up” on the Team Strength Oscillator. The Score Predictor has the Nets winning by a relatively narrow 123-117 margin with a confidence of 58 percent. The Totals Predictor shows that the teams have been both trending in games “under”, which is contradictory to the Score Predictor. Brooklyn won two of three between the teams last year. I see that trend continuing. Go with Brooklyn for a home win.

Orlando Magic versus New York Knicks

In this Eastern Conference matchup, the Knicks host the Magic.  New York has a +20 to +5 advantage on the Power Ranking Indicator and “burning hot” versus “dead” on the Team Strength Oscillator. The Score Predictor has the Nets winning by the score of 112-104 with 47 percent confidence. When examining the Totals Predictor, notice that both teams are trending in games “under” the line. The Knicks won two of three between the teams last season. I like the Knicks and bet “under”.

Philadelphia 76ers versus Oklahoma City Thunder

The Philadelphia 76ers opened with a win at New Orleans and now head to Oklahoma City. They have a +9 to +2 advantage on the Power Ranking Indicator and “average” versus “ice cold down” on the Team Strength Oscillator. The Scores Predictor has the 76ers defeating the Thunder by a narrow 115-111 with 56 percent confidence. The Totals Predictor shows the teams involved in games trending on opposite sides of the line, so avoid the over/under bet on this one.  The 76ers took both meetings between the teams last year and I like the 76ers in this one in a tight contest.

Memphis Grizzlies versus Los Angeles Lakers

The Lakers look to bounce back after losing their opener, while the Grizzlies won their first game of the season. Los Angeles has a +8 to +3 edge on the Power Ranking Indicator. The Grizzlies are “average” versus “dead” on the Team Strength Oscillator. The Totals Predictor shows that both teams have been trending in games “over” and the Score Predictor has the Grizzlies winning by 119-109 with 74 percent confidence. The Lakers won all three meetings between the teams last season. I don’t envision them dropping another game without a win. Go with the Lakers and bet “over”.
