The first week of the NBA’s 2017-18 regular season is underway, and both of last season’s conference champions — the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers — are having the yips early on. The Warriors have limped out of the gate a 1-2, while the Cavaliers just took a beating from an Orlando Magic team missing two of their key starters. Obviously, we’re a long, long way from the playoffs, and the wear and tear of several long seasons with lengthy playoff runs may be taking their toll in the early going here as these teams take a while to start looking sharp. We’ve put together a list of the top NBA betting matchups & picks for this week. Home teams, as always, are in all caps. Be sure to check out the latest NBA odds & lines before choosing your picks.
