Washington heads into Chicago to face the Bulls riding a season-high two-game winning streak. The Wizards just earned their 13th win of the season as they defeated the Toronto Raptors 112-109. With just their third two-game winning streak of the season, Washington has kept from falling behind the Detroit Pistons for the worst record in the NBA. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Injuries have been mounting up for Washington, but we still like their outlook with Kyle Kuzma, Landry Shamet &amp; Tyus Jones have been ruled out while Jordan Poole is listed as questionable. The Wiz are playing with energy, and they seem like a team that relishes the role of spoiler. Meanwhile, the Bulls looked gassed in the 4th quarter against Boston, and DeMar DeRozan played 42 minutes. The Bulls also rank 29th in pace of play, which limits their ability to blowout their opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These teams played just nine days ago, and Chicago crushed the Wizizards 127-98 in their first head-to-head meeting, where Ayo Dosunmu scored a career-high 34 points. Washington also has one more win on the road than at home this season, so this is not a situation where they are at a disadvantage when on the road. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Wizards are an ugly &#8216;dog, but at this price, they are one of the best NBA underdog picks today, and we would sprinkle the Wizards on the moneyline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NBA Underdog Picks Today &#8211; Bet #2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Toronto Raptors +210 vs. Brooklyn Nets<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Something has to give tonight in Toronto. The Nets and Raptors are both having tough seasons, and both teams are currently in the midst of major losing streaks. Toronto has not won since March 3rd (10 games), and the Nets have dropped their last six games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both teams are 3-7 against the number in their last ten games, so a losing streak will be broken tonight, as will an against-the-spread tie over these teams&#8217; last ten games. The season series is tied 1-1, and in the last matchup between these teams on 2\/22, the Raptors ran the Nets out of the building in Toronto, winning by 28 points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Nets have been favored three times in their last ten games, and they are 1-2 against the spread in those instances. The Raptors have been \u2018dogs of 6+ in eight of their last ten games, and they are 3-5 against the number in those contests. We make this game Brooklyn -.5, so despite how ugly it is, we are taking the Raptors with the points tonight at home and on the moneyline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scottie Barnes, RJ Barrett, and Immanuel Quickley, three starters for Toronto, will all miss tonight\u2019s contest, but still, the Nets do not have the firepower to win by margin. The Nets are scoring 105.6 points per game over their last ten, while the Raptors scoring 105. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toronto\u2019s defense has been abysmal, allowing 120.7 points per game over this stretch, but the Nets&#8217; lack of scoring prowess makes this moot. We expect more offense from normal for both these teams, but the Raptors should keep this game within the number and can win it outright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>The GoldSheet team has just introduced a new product called GoldSheet Lite to help you handicap the NBA, NCAAB and MLB slate each day.

Kelly Stewart and Teddy Covers dive into essential sports betting strategies that can significantly improve your betting game. They cover three critical topics: managing losing streaks, the importance of line shopping, and betting tips for the NBA after the All-Star break. #SportsBetting #BettingStrategy #BettingTips 1. Overcoming Losing Streaks: Acceptance: Acknowledge that losing streaks are a part of betting. Every bettor, regardless of experience, faces them. Take a Step Back: Sometimes, taking a day off to breathe and reassess your strategies can help clear your mind and prevent further losses. Adjust Your Bets: Ensure your unit sizes reflect your current bankroll to avoid compounding losses. 2. Line Shopping: A Key to Betting Success: Half Points Matter: Shopping around for the best lines ensures you don&#039;t have to buy points, saving money in the long run. Avoid Loyalty to a Single Book: With multiple sportsbooks available, especially in states with legal sports betting, diversifying your options can lead to better odds and higher profits. Finding Value: Line shopping can turn losses into pushes and pushes into wins, providing a significant edge over time. 3. NBA Betting After the All-Star Break: Seek Under-the-Radar Teams: Small market teams that are performing well but aren&#039;t getting as much attention can offer great value. Ignore Seeding and Must-Win Narratives: These factors are often already priced into the lines and don&#039;t provide the motivational edge many assume. Be Cautious with Teams Tanking: While players may not intentionally lose, a lack of effort or focus in games can make betting on bottom feeders risky. Teddy Covers shares his expertise on how to navigate the complex world of sports betting with practical advice on managing losing streaks, the benefits of line shopping, and insights into NBA betting post-All-Star break. These strategies are designed to help bettors make informed decisions and increase their chances of profitable betting. 3-Line Summary: Teddy Covers discusses strategies for handling losing streaks in sports betting, emphasizing the importance of taking a step back and reassessing your approach. He explains the value of line shopping and how it can significantly increase your betting profits by avoiding the need to buy points. For NBA betting post-All-Star break, Teddy highlights the advantage of focusing on under-the-radar, small market teams and cautions against placing too much importance on seeding or must-win narratives. \ud83d\udc4d Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to WagerTalk TV; \ud83d\udd14 CLICK the Bell and never miss an episode! \ud83e\udd11 Free Sports Picks: https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/free-sports-picks \ud83d\udcca Live Odds: https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/odds \ud83d\uddde\ufe0f News: https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news \ud83d\udc4d Stay connected with WagerTalk \ud83d\udcfa YouTube: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/tv \ud83d\udc4d Facebook: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/fb \ud83d\udc26 Twitter: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/tw \ud83d\udcf8 Instagram: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/ig \ud83d\udcf0 Reddit: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/rd \u2764\ufe0f iHeart Radio: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/iheart \ud83c\udf4e Apple Podcasts: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/ap \ud83d\udccc Pinterest: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/pin\"><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/-FK_bhmG2GU\/0.jpg\"><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT16M36S\"><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2024-03-12T15:47:39Z\"><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WagerTalk Live Odds Screen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>WagerTalk\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/odds?sport=L5&amp;type=4&amp;cb=0.041518762314237456\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">live odds screen<\/a> features up-to-the-minute lines from a variety of offshore and domestic sports books.
