With football winding down and the MLB Season not starting until April, sports betting fans are turning their eyes to the NBA and college basketball.

The NBA in particular has been an exciting league for BetUS online sportsbook fans so far this season.  There are no less than ten teams in the league that consistently can provide basketball betting fans with profits.

Two of those teams are playing this weekend in games that NBA betting fans should think about keying their online bets around.

Let’s get to it!

Best Online NBA Betting Game on Saturday

Orlando Magic vs. Denver Nuggets - - The Denver Nuggets host the Phoenix Suns on Thursday night, then they get a day of rest, then they host the Orlando Magic.  In hosting the Suns and Magic back to back, the Nuggets have to face two of the better big men in the NBA in Dwight Howard and Shaquille O’Neal.  Howard is easily one of the top five best players in the NBA right now.  He’ll be hoping that Shaq and the Suns wear down that Nuggets’ defense on Thursday.  The Nuggets are a very good straight-up and against the BetUS online betting spread team, but the Orlando Magic is downright magical when it comes to online betting.  Orlando is 31 and 8 straight-up, 26-12-1 against the BetUS online betting spread and 14-5-1 against the spread in their away games.  They do have to play the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night. So turning around on Saturday and playing the Nuggets won’t be easy, but the Magic should be the team to beat in this since Carmelo Anthony won’t be back for Denver.

Pick:  The Orlando Magic to cover a spread of between -1 to -3 ½ points as road favorites.

Best Online NBA Betting Game on Sunday

Miami Heat vs. Oklahoma City Thunder - - It helps to do your homework as a BetUS online sportsbook wagering fan.  Even though the Oklahoma City Thunder are downright awful straight-up at 7 and 33, they are an against the BetUS online betting spread juggernaut with a record of 26 and 14 overall and 12 and 9 record against the spread at home.  The reason is simple.  The BetUS odds makers just can’t make the Thunder favorites in any game against another NBA team.  Maybe if the Thunder plays a high school team they will be the favorites.  As much as NBA betting fans want to believe that the Thunder is a viable betting option, they just can’t get themselves to bet on this team which means the odds makers have to make the Thunder even bigger underdogs.  Well, I’m going to break that ridiculous notion by saying that the Thunder has a very good chance of not just beating the spread in their Sunday game against the Miami Heat but of winning it outright.  Kevin Durant is a very good player and the Miami Heat is just okay against the spread on the road going 10-9-1 this season.  I’m making a bet on the Thunder if the BetUS odds makers release a line to my liking.

Pick:  Oklahoma City at the BetUS online sportsbook betting odds of +3 ½ or higher.
