Tuesday Night NBA Picks hits with a heavy clash between the Brooklyn Nets and Golden State Warriors. That gets followed up by Philadelphia and Utah plus more.
Tuesday night only features only three games BUT there is one, in particular, that gets the juices flowing and the bettors wagering. That is right. It is time for NBA Picks. We lead off with quite possibly one of the games of the season.
Our headline NBA matchup is the Brooklyn Nets and Golden State Warriors clashing from Brooklyn. This is one game many have been looking forward to for some time. Other than the Christmas Day games, it may be this contest from Brooklyn that garners the most attention.
This small Tuesday night NBA slate has the bonus of a game between Philadelphia and Utah. Furthermore, the Los Angeles Clippers cap this night entertaining the San Antonio Spurs. These are the fun nights where one can just focus on the matchups as a whole.
Here at Canada Sports Betting, our goal is to focus on these playoff-like NBA nights. The great news here is that none of the six teams played the night before. Now, we hope to deliver the best NBA odds to allow the bettors to make the wisest decisions.
Tuesday Night NBA Numbers Breakdown
Even a three-game NBA night needs a little love too. The Tuesday night NBA numbers breakdown gives us the ability to go micro-picture. Last Monday, two teams were worth easy looks. They were the Brooklyn Nets and Golden State Warriors. It is poetic in a way that one of the East’s best faces the class of the NBA currently.
A heavy part of the heavy handle this week will be focused on this Tuesday night game. With two NBA MVP candidates in Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry, there is a ton of marquis value. This game has the possibility of being a preview of two of the top NBA FInals betting odds’ choices.
The Brooklyn Nets could be quite the nice pick but again there are a couple of other games to look at as well. Here are those numbers for tonight’s NBA slate for Tuesday, November 16th.
| NBA Tuesday Night Picks 11/16 |  |  |  |
|---|---|---|---|
| Golden State Warriors | 2.18 | 2.30 | 2.30 |
| Brooklyn Nets | 1.70 | 1.65 | 1.66 |
| Philadlephia 76ers | 3.92 | 3.90 | 3.80 |
| Utah Jazz | 1.28 | 1.28 | 1.27 |
| San Antonio Spurs | 3.18 | 3.05 | 2.95 |
| Los Angeles Clippers | 1.38 | 1.40 | 1.41 |
The CSB BIG Pick of the NBA Night — Brooklyn Nets Keep Rolling
The 10-4 Brooklyn Nets are on quite a roll winning eight of their last ten games. This is the Nets team that most expected at the start of the season. The value may not be the highest with this pick because the Golden State Warriors are coming off a rare loss. That is correct.
Tuesday night has Brooklyn playing a Golden State team that has won 11 of 13 games to start the 2021-22 NBA season. Both Kevin Durant and James Harden still have not reached that 35 minutes per game mark which some had feared they would blow-by. The Nets’ depth keeps being a nice subplot to the “big duo”. Five other players play more than 20 minutes and three players also average double-digit points per game.
There is much balance and Joe Harris with LaMarcus Aldridge has been more than serviceable. Aldridge comes off the bench and averages a bit more than 20 minutes per night. Even at 36, he creates matchup problems against almost any opponent’s depth.
For as good as the Golden State Warriors have been this season with Stephen Curry, they can be vulnerable especially on the road. Brooklyn has another gear offensively (15th in the NBA) and their defence ranks sixth in points allowed per game. This is not the same Nets team as last year. Their pace is 10th overall so they do not have to always keep hitting the gas pedal. Teams like Golden State can have issues trying to do that.
Brooklyn Nets over Golden State Warriors
It is why we favour the Brooklyn Nets over the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night. The Nets are 2-0 against the West and 3-0 in their last three at home. If Klay Thompson was playing, this would be an easy pick for the road team. However, no Thompson and Golden State have shown some slower pace of late on the road. They do get caught reading their headlines sometimes.
Take the Brooklyn Nets over the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night. 1.70 is not a bad number at all.
Utah Jazz over the Philadelphia 76ers
Continuing with our NBA picks for Tuesday night, the Utah Jazz were a tough choice just because their number is so far out there. They are 8.5-point favourites in some circles. Both teams are on losing streaks but the Philadelphia 76ers dropping four consecutive games is far more concerning. Philadelphia is oddly 3-0 against the West which will draw some bettors in.
Do not believe the hype. Utah features four players who average 14 or more points along with Donovan Mitchell leading the way at nearly 26 points per night. The 76ers just cannot match Utah’s depth or offensive thrust at home.
Even most top NBA betting sites would agree to pick the Utah Jazz at 1.28 over the Philadelphia 76ers Tuesday night.
West Coast Nightcap: Los Angeles Clippers over San Antonio Spurs
The Los Angeles Clippers play the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday night in our West Coast Nightcap. The Spurs are 4-9 and a lousy 1-7 against the rest of the West. Do not overthink this one too much. Even at 8-5, the Clippers are too easy of a pick here and could win by double-digits at home.
Go run to the sites and take the Los Angeles Clippers on the moneyline over San Antonio.
Always take a look at the many sportsbooks on CSB for some of the best numbers, period!
