Best NBA Point Spread Picks for Monday, March 7th 2022

NBA Monday is back, and it’s time to make some spread bets. At this point in the season, teams are very lopsided.

NBA Betting Sites

This means there is usually not a lot of money line betting value. Point spread betting is the way to go when betting on the NBA.

It’s hard to win money ATS, but the payout is very lucrative. Here are my best NBA point spread bets for Monday, March 7.

Atlanta Hawks vs. Detroit Pistons

Hawks vs. Pistons Pick

Best Bet: Pistons +7.5

The Pistons are horrendous in the record book. They are just 17-47 in the win/loss column. However, they have thrived ATS this season.

The Pistons are a competitive basketball team. They are 32-31 ATS this season and have been tremendous recently.

In their past six games, they are 6-0 ATS. The team is also 5-2 SU in their last seven, so they are starting to click. The Hawks are a .500 team, and they are laying 7.5 points in this contest.

This is too many points considering how well the Pistons have been playing.

Cade Cunningham has been the man for the Pistons this season. He is averaging 16.3 PPG. Detroit must stop Trae Young, and they will easily cover.

NBA Betting Lines

Chicago Bulls vs. Philadelphia 76ers

Bulls vs. 76ers Pick

Best Bet: 76ers -7

The Chicago Bulls seemed like a legitimate threat in the Eastern Conference this season. They are still playing well overall. However, the team has been on a massive slide as of late.

The Bulls are 39-25, but 1-4 SU in their past five games. They will have to travel to one of the toughest places in the NBA on Monday. The Sixers have a 39-24 record but have been on a tear.

The team is 4-2 ATS in their last six games. They are also 7-0 in their past seven games at home against the Bulls.

Nikola Vucevic is questionable for tonight’s game. This will not help the Bulls cover if he is not healthy.

Utah Jazz vs. Dallas Mavericks

Jazz vs. Mavericks Pick

Best Bet: Jazz +1.5

The Utah Jazz may have the upper leg on the road against the Mavericks on Monday. Luka Doncic is questionable for Monday’s contest. However, the Mavericks did have a day off, and the Jazz are playing in a back-to-back.

Doncic will likely play for the Mavericks tonight following the day off. Utah has not been great ATS.

They are 2-4 ATS in their last six games against Dallas. The Mavericks are 36-27-1 ATS this season, so they have been very solid.

The team has also won their past four games. Additionally, the Jazz just beat the Mavericks on February 25. It’s very tough to beat teams twice in a short span.

NBA Predictions

Los Angeles Lakers vs. San Antonio Spurs

Lakers vs. Spurs Pick

Best Bet: Lakers +2

I want to give the Lakers a little credit. They beat Golden State 1124-116 on a night where LeBron James dropped 56 points. The Spurs are not a good basketball team, and in what world should this even be a question?

The Lakers at +2 should be the easiest bet in the world against the Spurs. As we know, it’s not because the Lakers are horrendous.

However, I am going to ride with it today. San Antonio is 1-4 SU in their past five games.
