PSP's Data Driven NBA Free Pick At Professionalsportspicks we see a future where those handicapping sports without advanced analytics and data-driven strategies will be left behind. Our data-driven picks use data integration, search and discovery, and knowledge management along with collaboration with our in-house handicappers. By isolating relevant trends, removing human bias, and targeting only lines with a positive expected value above a certain threshold, our data-driven picks promise to outperform any and all human competitors. Our models suggest that the value is on the Miami Heat against a banged-up Philadelphia 76ers side on Christmas Day. Joel Embiid has been ruled out and there are several players questionable or probable. Miami has won its past two games without star Jimmy Butler who is questionable (strained left calf), but the Heat are otherwise mostly healthy. Supporting trends: Heat are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as a home underdog of 0.5-4.5.
