Pacific Division Win Totals Best Bets

Our division win total previews have come to a close with this final deep dive into the Pacific Division. Action Network NBA betting experts Matt Moore and Brandon Anderson try and decipher the league’s most befuddling (and maybe best?) division and how to bet on it. Team win total previews include the Golden State Warriors [6 min], Phoenix Suns [18 min], Los Angeles Clippers [33 min], Sacramento Kings [44 min] and Los Angeles Lakers [59 min]. The guys start by looking at the top of the division with three teams each having win totals over 50 and what history says about it. If you have to kick one team out, who are you backing and who are you fading? Matt has bad news for the champs and Brandon can't fathom that Matt’s all in on the Kings. The guys also look at the Lakers and one of the weirdest and ugliest teams in the league to try and predict. All this plus best bets, derivative markets and more on Buckets.Subscribe, rate and review for more NBA betting content.  Learn more about your ad choices.
