Each day that passes, the schedule of the 2021-22 NBA season becomes a pitched battle for all the teams, since they all need to achieve many victories in this second half of the season, as the goal of being present in the Playoffs is closer than ever.
In the Eastern Conference we have had some changes compared to the previous days, the Chicago Bulls are still unable to win important games, the Sixers and Bucks are living an excellent moment of the season and they are stalking the Miami Heat, and now we have the Boston Celtics in an excellent winning streak that has helped them to be at the top of the standings.
On the other hand, the Western Conference continues to maintain the Phoenix Suns as the absolute leaders of the standings, and the Grizzlies have managed to climb to second place, displacing the Golden State Warriors who have not played well in recent weeks.

The leader of the Eastern Conference of the NBA, the Miami Heat, has a somewhat complicated schedule, but they have the advantage that they will play many consecutive games at home this week. This Friday, March 11, 2022, we will have the game between the Miami Heat and Cleveland Cavaliers, which will be played at the FTX Arena, home of the Heat.
The Miami Heat come to this game to continue to add victories at home to get seriously on track to qualify for the postseason, without having to fight in the last days of the regular season with their closest pursuers. The Heat are one of the strongest teams this season, so they are one of the favorites to win the championship ring.
On the other hand, the Cleveland Cavaliers have been very irregular throughout the season, when it was thought that they could once again be the competitive team and get into the fight for the Western Conference, they began to lose games again, so now they must play very good basketball to achieve wins.
Look for a straight win on the Moneyline for Heat. If you put $100 on the Heat at -120 you’ll be looking at an $83.33 win with a total payout of $183.33.

Moneyline odds: Suns -240 / Raptors +455 (Source: MyBookie.ag)
Where Can I Watch? ESPN / TNT
Although there are teams that have shown notable improvement in recent weeks, there are others that have been the opposite, such as the Raptors, who are in the most accessible conference this season, but have not been able to win consecutive games and continue to stick in the middle of the standings.
In this match, they will not have it easy, as they will face the Phoenix Suns at the Talking Stick Resort Arena, one of the best teams in the league throughout the season.
The Suns have a wide margin for error at this point in the season, their gap with their closest pursuers is wide, and so they can afford to try different approaches against a team that has been very fickle like the Raptors.
While the Raptors need to achieve this victory, mainly to seek a morale boost that will help them get out of the bad moment they find themselves in and thus be able to climb positions within the Eastern Conference.
Look for a straight win on the Moneyline for Suns. If you put $100 on the Suns at -240 you’ll be looking at a $41.67 win with a total payout of $141.67.
Suns vs. Raptors Betting Pick: Phoenix Suns.

Another excellent game that we can enjoy this weekend will be this one between the Miami Heat and Minnesota Timberwolves, which will be played this Saturday, March 12, 2022, at the FTX Arena, home of the Heat.
Miami continues to play games at home, so they must take advantage of this to get 5 wins in these 5 consecutive games in Florida, to establish themselves in first place in the Eastern Conference and thus be much closer to qualifying for the postseason.
While the Timberwolves seem to have woken up, with an immense Luka Doncic commanding each one of his team’s offenses and, now when the Warriors seem to be in decline and second place in the Western Conference could be a fact, The Timberwolves will be looking to get a lot of wins in the rest of the season to comfortably qualify for the postseason.
Look for a straight win on the Moneyline for Heat. If you put $100 on the Heat at -120 you’ll be looking at an $83.33 win with a total payout of $183.33.

The emotions of the NBA regular season continue with a very exciting game this Saturday, March 12, 2022, between the Chicago Bulls and Cleveland Cavaliers, which will be played at the United Center, home of the Bulls.
The Chicago Bulls have a pending account with their fans and with themselves since they cannot win against big teams and this will be very complicated for them when defining the positions of the table, facing the postseason.
The Bulls have played in a very good way, but they have had many ups and downs that have not allowed them to be fully in first place in the Eastern Conference.
On the other hand, the Cleveland Cavaliers continue to be a team that has a hard time taking off in games, so they need many wins in a row if they want to be present at the top of the table.
Look for a straight win on the Moneyline for Bulls. If you put $100 on the Bulls at -120 you’ll be looking at an $83.33 win with a total payout of $183.33.

The most exciting and interesting game that we can enjoy this Saturday, March 12, 2022, is, without a doubt, the one that will be played between the Golden State Warriors and Milwaukee Bucks.
Currently, both teams are among the best in the league, but the level they have shown is completely different since the Warriors have had many problems winning games, while the Bucks are taking out the caste of champions, winning several consecutive games to close in on a first place in the Eastern Conference.
Although it is a game where we could have a clear favorite to win, we opted for the locals, Golden State Warriors, as the winning team in this game.
Look for a straight win on the Moneyline for Warriors. If you put $100 on the Warriors at -120 you’ll be looking at an $83.33 win with a total payout of $183.33.
