PICK: UNDER 210.5

Since the beginning of January, Boston has the best defensive rating in the NBA. The Celtics are also 27th in pace since Jan. 1. Over their last 14 games, the Under is 11-2-1.

Philadelphia is another defensive-minded team. The Sixers are sixth in points allowed (105.2), just two spots behind Boston (103.6). Six of their last nine games have seen the total go Under.

In the series, eight of the last 12 have gone Under. Boston has held seven of its last ten opponents to 97 or fewer points.

NBA Over/Under Odds

Clippers vs. Suns Total for Feb 15th

Clippers vs. Suns Preview

PICK: UNDER 222.5

Tonight’s total of 222.5 has been surpassed just once in the last eight games between the Clippers and Suns. The average total in the last ten games in the series is just 208.1. Not surprisingly, the Under has hit in seven of ten.

The Suns rank third in defensive efficiency and the Clippers are just 25th in points per game (106.2). Phoenix has scored 132 and 131 in its last two games, but the defense of the Clippers will slow them down.

Hornets vs. Timberwolves Total for Feb 15th

Hornets vs. Timberwolves Preview

PICK: UNDER 244

Another week, another new high total in the NBA. The T-Wolves-Bulls game last week set the mark and now it’s Minnesota again going up against the league’s second-highest scoring offense – Charlotte. Plus, the Hornets are terrible defensively ranking 28th in points allowed per game.

The last time these two teams played – in November – the total hit 248, but despite filling it up on offense and being so bad defensively, the Under has hit in six of the Hornets last eight games. The T-Wolves trend Over, but the trend is more in road games. At home, the O/U is just 11-15.

NBA Over/Under Picks

Grizzlies vs. Pelicans Total for Feb 15th

Grizzlies vs. Pelicans Preview

PICK: UNDER 227.5

Memphis star Ja Morant is listed as questionable and even if he does play he won’t be 100 percent. The Grizzlies might sit him to just to be safe. With Morant out, the Grizzlies will slow things down as they have done in past games without him.

The Under has cashed in 12 of the last 16 Pelicans games. New Orleans ranks 26th in points per game. The series between these two teams trends Under too with six of the last ten going Under. Over those ten games, the average point total was 221, which is 6.5 points less than tonight’s total.
