NBA Same Game Parlay Picks

Brooklyn Nets vs. Miami Heat

  • Leg 1: Spencer Dinwiddie Over 8.5 Assists (-130)
  • Leg 2: Mikal Bridges Over 3.5 Rebounds (-140)
  • Leg 3: Kevin Love Over 1.5 Threes (+102)

The Nets could use this win against the Heat. They’re losing ground in the East quickly, and Miami’s one of the reasons why.

Dinwiddie is starting to facilitate with the Nets now. He’s added at least 11 assists in six of his last seven games. Miami’s a good defense, but the Nets will still score enough and help Dinwiddie get Over 8.5 in assists.

Meanwhile, in March, Bridges has added 4.2 rebounds per game with the Nets. He’s hit at least four rebounds in 62% of games and just came down with six rebounds in 34 minutes against the Cavaliers. That sounds about what he’ll get against the Heat.

On the other hand, the Heat brought in some veteran presence with Love. Most of his shots are from downtown with the Heat. He added at least two threes in five straight games and has attempted at least six threes in four straight games. I’ll back Love to nail two threes at plus money.

Los Angeles Clippers vs. New Orleans Pelicans

Excuse my pessimism, but there’s not much to love about the Clippers right now. The absence of Paul George is obviously severe, but I think the public is underselling the extent to which his presence matters for this team. George is Los Angeles’ most critical player per Wins Above Replacement, and the Clippers starting five without him is uninspiring (to phrase it nicely).

Let’s circle in on Russell Westbrook, and Eric Gordon– neither player has any business starting for a contending team in the respective stages of their careers. They’re both highly obstructive defensive players, and perpetually rate negatively on the box-score plus/minus. Any minutes afforded to them is a hinderance to the Clippers chance at winning, and it’s dumbfounding that Head Coach Ty Lue has elected to afford them such significant playing time.

In argument, the Pelicans aren’t a great team right now either, but they certainly have the Clippers beat in terms of overall depth. Los Angeles will certainly have the best player on the court (Kawhi Leonard, beast), but the Pels may very well have players two through five available in their rotation, as arguments for McCollum, Ingram, Jones, Murphy III, and Jones Jr. are all valid. Lastly, the importance of this game for New Orleans’ playoff chances cannot be understated, and despite their lackluster play since January, the Pelicans have been quite formidable this month of March.
