NHL and NBA Ice Hockey and Basketball Picks 04/01/17

Columbus Blue Jackets look to extend their streak to 16 after sweeping aside the 12 streak of Minnesota last time out. The Edmonton Oilers are a class franchise but how can you bet against a team on such a outrageous streak?! Home advantage and momentum side with Columbus.

Third placed New York Rangers should get the job done hosting rock bottom Buffalo Sabres.

San Jose have won 4 of their last five at home including impressive wins over Philadelphia Flyers and the Edmonton Oilers. I fancy San Jose Sharks to get the better of Los Angeles Kings.

In the NBA expect San Antonio Spurs to bounce back from a disappointing overtime defeat to Atlanta Hawks.The Toronoto Raptors are a talented outfit in good form but they don't have enough to overcome the experience of Tony Parker,Ginobili and Pau Gasol and co.Seven straight home wins points at a Spurs victory.

Providing Marc Gasol passes a late fitness test Memphis Grizzlies will fancy their chances on the road at LA Lakers. Providing Mike Conley has his usual reliable game I can't see the young Lakers side turning over Memphis even with the experience of Luol Deng on court.
