Let’s take a first look at the situation after the first week of the NBA basketball regular season. The Boston champions started off well straight away, but OKC is a real contender. The Lakers also did well and (like the Cavaliers) are still perfect in betting. NBA week 2 predictions.
NBA week 2 predictions: the latest results
We come from a start to the week that has seen the LA Lakers’ first knockout of the season who were put back from +18 by the Phoenix Suns, and lost their first match of the season, despite remaining perfect in the betting, as we will see later. For Phoenix 78 points from the Booker-Durant-Beal trio. For LAL LeBron James only reaches 11 points at the end of the game, risking putting an end to the record streak which instead continues with 1,226 performances with 10+ points on the scoresheet.
In the East, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics continue undefeated While the Detroit Pistons on the other hand are 0-4 and they are still looking for their first seasonal success, like him Utah Jazz on the other side (it’s raining wet with a bad injury for Taylor Hendricks).
We arrive from a Monday night in which it also arrived the first fifty of the season, and it was surprisingly scored by Paolo Banchero with exactly 50 points (but also 13 rebounds and 9 assists) in the Magic’s success over the Pacers.

In the West, however, it is to be followed without a doubt Minnesota Timberwolves-Denver Nuggets, with the Nuggets not getting off to a great start, despite Nikola Jokic putting together two 40+ point games in a row! Portland Trail Blazers-OKC Thunder it’s a classic spin, let’s expect a high handicap line for Shai Gilgeous Alexander and his teammates, despite playing away.

The NBA weekend begins with a Saturday from 10 gamesopened by Charlotte Hornets-Boston Celtics. An interesting one to follow Philadelphia 76ers-Memphis Grizzliesto understand the conditions of Joel Embiid and Paul George.

NBA SUNDAY 3 NOVEMBER
Solo 3 games on Sundays, and at a convenient Italian time we certainly won’t have an unmissable big match, given that the NBA offers us Brooklyn Nets-Detroit Pistons, clash between two of the worst teams in the East. In the night New Orleans Pelicans-Atlanta Hawks e Dallas Mavericks-Orlando Magic complete the picture, with this last challenge set to be the most interesting match of a rather poor NBA Sunday.
NBA MONDAY 4 NOVEMBER

Followed by another clash in the East with Boston Atlanta Hawks-Boston Celtics.

Betting Trends: Lakers no longer undefeated but still perfect in betting (like the Cavs)
In the first matches of the season the best handicap bet (ATS) is on the away underdogs which have repaid in 58.6% of cases. As for total points, the first week of the NBA regular season immediately saw one slight prevalence of Over games (53.8%) compared to Under games (46.2%).
Betting trends NBA 24-25
The Lakers no longer have an undefeated record, but they still remain perfect in betting with 4-0 ATS, then same yield of Cleveland Cavaliers. Also worth mentioning are the Oklahoma City Thunder, and the LA Clippers who started much better than expected, and we can see it from the 3-0 ATS in the betting.
Best NBA teams ATS bets
On the contrary the Atlanta Hawks are making bettors cry with 0-4 ATS, like the Denver Nuggets (0-3 ATS) and Phoenix Suns (1-3 ATS) and Sacramento Kings (0-2-1 ATS) aren’t much better. Among the big names that are disappointing in betting there are also the Milwaukee Bucks (1-3 ATS), in short, there is no shortage of top teams here.
Worst NBA teams ATS bets
For Over the best team is Atlanta who with 117 points scored on average, but also 121.2 conceded, has always scored Over (O/U 4-0), like the Memphis Grizzlies and also the Orlando Magic surprisingly, all O/U 4-0 in the moment. Always Over also for the Philadelphia 76ers (O/U 3-0). For Under there is a long list of teams O/U 1-2, and there is no longer any team that has always scored Under at this start of the season.
The reigning champions, the Boston Celtics have the best offense with 124.2 points scored on average (the worst is that of the Utah Jazz with 104.0). By far the best defense remains that of OKC with 95.3 points conceded on average.
Golden State Warriors who are 2nd in both attack and defense, and this allows Kerr’s team to have the best average margin (+23.0 points). The trend continues Washington Wizards who also started this year with the worst defense (125.3 points allowed on average). The capital team loses with -12.33 points and average margin, but here there are those who do worse, Utah with an average difference of -17.0 points.

Let’s close by going to see the updates from the antepost odds boards for the final victory of the 2024-25 NBA ring. Always commands Boston are OKC, the Knicks are a bit detached. In double figures we have Dallas, followed closely by Minnesota and Philadelphia. Denver and Milwaukee lose ground.
Quote Antepost NBA 24-25
The Bucks also lose the lead in antepost odds for the Central Division where the Cavaliers are now @1.90 favorites over Giannis and his teammates @3 times the stake. However, the most open divisions according to the books are in the West: the Pacific Division he sees the Suns ahead @2.30, but the Lakers are close @4, and Sacramento @5 and Golden State @5.50 can also win, furthermore if the Clippers continue to go like this, they will see the odds drop which currently sees them excluded from this race @26. Also open Southwest Division with Dallas @2.10 ahead of Memphis @4 and New Orleans @5, with Houston @7.50 which could represent the surprise, more than San Antonio which remains behind @26.
Some adjustments also in the boards for MVP where Luka Doncic and Shai Gilgeous Alexander go hand in hand, both as favorites @4 of altitude, but Jayson Tatum has recovered a lot, very close now @5.
Anthony Edwards’s odds are also rightly lowered @10 that he leaves behind Giannis Antetokounmpo @13but remains behind than usual Nikola Jokic @9 which is always at the top of this board. Of note is the good start of the Lakers which is above all due to Anthony Davis also coming down this board @17. On the other hand, the star of the Knicks in difficulty, Jalen Brunson who passes @21 times the post, ahead of Viktor Wembanyama @29, after which the jump is clear with Paolo Banchero @51.
