Make all your NBA wagers at SportsWager.com! It becomes very important to identify the teams that have no chance to make the playoffs, but still play hard. These units can become "live dogs" when facing playoff calibur units who are fighting to make the post-season, or trying to obtain a higher seed. 3 units come to mind, that we may want to back as the last month of the season is upon us.
The Atlanta Hawks have the worse record, however they have covered 5 out of their last 7 road games. On April 20th they finish the season at Philadelphia.
The Charlotte Bobcats finished March 5-1-1 ATS. Key April matchups are road games at Chicago, Philly, and Washington.
The Golden St. Warriors have played tremendous. Covering 7 out of 9 to close out the month. We see home games versus Seattle, Houston, Phoenix, and San Antonio on the horizon. With 2 key road dates at Denver and Minnesota.
These 3 may bring value as the oddsmakers will look to overprice the playoff teams. Knowing full well that the public will believe in backing units that have something to play for.
