The Golden State Warriors don’t have any room for error down the stretch if they plan on entering the Western Conference playoffs with the No. 1 seed. Golden State has the same number of losses as the Nuggets and can ill afford to lose any contests it is expected to win. That will be the case next time out as the Warriors hit the road to face off against the hapless Memphis Grizzlies.
Golden State might not be at home but it is the much more talented team and will be the favorite. This is one of several intriguing games to watch on the Wednesday slate. See below for some of the best bets from the day’s action in NBA gambling.

Odds Analysis
The Warriors have been more inconsistent than hoped this season but they still have everything within their grasp when it comes to winning the Western Conference. Golden State will be on the road in this one against a Grizzlies team that is two games above .500 at home despite a poor overall mark. Memphis will look to hang tough but will be overwhelmed. The Warriors are the pick to grab control of this one early and cover the spread.
The Indiana Pacers have struggled pretty badly of late and will be six-point road underdogs on Wednesday against the Thunder. Oklahoma City hasn’t been much better and will fail to love up to expectations in this one. The Pacers have been underestimated much of the season and often cover the spread. They will pull that off in this game as well.
The Los Angeles Lakers will be on the road against the Utah Jazz as the Lake Show awaits a merciful end to its season. Utah has much more to play for as there is plenty to be decided in the playoff race. The Jazz will be focused and disciplined, and their depth will overwhelm the Lakers. Utah will be the right pick to cover the spread.
The Phoenix Suns are hosting the Washington Wizards in a game that is projected to be competitive, even if it’s not the most crisp showing of all-time. The scoring total is listed at 231 points and that seems too high. The pace will slow in the fourth quarter of this one as the game should be close, which will help result in the “under” hitting in this matchup.
Free NBA ATS Picks
There aren’t a lot of games to choose from on Wednesday, but there is one wager that clearly stands out among the rest. The Portland Trail Blazers have played some good basketball of late and will aim to keep that going on the road against the Chicago Bulls.
Chicago has the inferior record and thus will likely be the underdog, but the oddsmakers will not get this one right. Even though the Bulls have not been very good at home this season, they will finally give their fans something to cheer about.
Portland is without two of its best players in C.J. McCollum and Jusuf Nurkic due to injury and that will catch up to them in this one. The Bulls are the pick to pull the upset in NBA gambling.
