The New Orleans Pelicans now have two big men that are both among the best in the NBA as they traded for DeMarcus Cousins. It creates a huge matchup problem for their opponents. While the recods of both Dallas and New Orleans are similar, the Pelicans poor start makes this a bit deceptive, and so does the upgrade. Dallas had a great, 8-3 run as part of their overall record, but have since dropped back to reality losing three straight games, failing to cover any of them. New Orleans has also figured out how to win on the road as three of their nine road wins have come in their last four road games. They are now also 5-1 SU/ATS in their last six on the road this year from +3 to -6 and have a better team now. Make the play on New Orleans.
