2-0 on NBA Opening Night. Here's 4 More Sharp Picks for Night 2

After getting a 2-0 start for opening night, let’s keep our NBA season bankroll full with four more picks for night two. As always, we have two sources for our picks:

Firstly, we have our 7,500 and growing community of bettors who place their picks on the OddsCrowd platform. We track their performance over time, and then select picks from the top performers from across the community.

Secondly, we also use our own Algorithm. We built the OddsCrowd Algorithm to use advanced data monitoring and analytics to identify value driven picks. When the algorithm finds Odds by Legal US Sportsbooks that it determines offer value relative to it’s own determined odds, it recommends the bet. This is what is commonly referred to as +EV or ‘ Plus Expected Value’ betting.

Before we dive in, if you haven’t already make sure you get involved in our Free to Play Contests. You can prove your betting skills (risk free), and win some money along the way. 

NBA Season Long Competition 2022-23

Weekly NBA Contest (Tues to Mon) - Week 1 2022

1st $200, 2nd $75, 3rd $50, 4th $25

OK, let’s dive in.

Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons

We’re tailing the user Jimmy Jonz and taking the Magic +3.5. He’s running a 9-0 record over the last 30 days. It’s hard to ignore this kind of streak. Simple as that.

Pick: Magic +3.5

Cleveland Cavaliers @ Toronto Raptors

With the Toronto team running a mostly unchanged roster, we think this will help them in the early season. MarySD, one of the most consistent and careful managers of their bankroll on OddsCrowd is taking the Raptors Moneyline. We’ll be tailing.

Pick: Raptors Moneyline

New Orleans Pelicans @ Brooklyn Nets

We’re believing in the Zion 2.0 hype. The Pelicans went 4-0 in the preseason, and we think this form can continue. Johnnyj also likes the look of the Pelicans in this matchup. The OddsCrowd Algorithm is seeing a 2.1% +EV Edge on the Pelicans at +3. We like the extra insurance that 3 point head start that provides.

Pick: Pelicans +3

Portland Trail Blazers @ Sacramento Kings

Damian Lillard is back and Yochanan and our algorithm are both aligned that the Trail Blazers can get their season off to a solid start. Our Algorithm is seeing a 4% +EV Edge on it when betting with FanDuel.

Pick: Trail Blazers Moneyline
