Don't bet on a team, bet on the over because preseason is like an exhibition game, less defense so most probably the games will go over. However, we still have to look at the total and carefully analyze it because bookies are also smart, they know that thing too and no easy money in gambling for gamblers.

Yes, that's how you bet on pre-seasons, because betting on a team is like literally betting on a dice game lol.
Over and under might be less predictable what bookies will offer, but considering that there will be less defensive plays so I guess betting for Over would be the safest bet in a pre-season game.

We have less than 2 weeks before the pre-season and the first game will be an interesting one, and the ideal teams where you can bet for Over.


Yes, Brooklyn Nets vs LA Lakers. They want to start the preseason with more offensive showing so you are right, this could go over. Only one game at the start of the preseason and I think I'm betting on the over on this, probably the line would be at least 240 (over/under).

We have only ten days left for the pre-season games to start! I've already missed the regular season and the playoffs a lot. I don't usually watch pre-season games. But I see that we are going to have a really awesome game on Oct 3, Brooklyn Nets vs Los Angeles Lakers. I wonder if we will be able to see the usual starting five for both teams. If we do, then I will definitely watch this game. It can be a really delightful one and I would like to just enjoy watching the game.

If you are not betting, then obviously, you will not watch the regular season. But for bettors it' s important because they will see how his favourite team is doing and then can gauge every game as who is will win, what will be the handicap or if a team can make an upset, hence underdog bets. Teams changes or rotates their starting five in the initial phase of the regular season because they will have to experiment a lot and find the perfect line up. I'm sure though the starting game will be one of the most watch NBA opening season game.

He says the pre-season, most of us probably don't watch a preseason game as it's only an exhibition game to warm up the team a bit. It's a no-bearing game and probably the stars of a certain team will not play in full minutes, or will not play at all. For bettors, it's up to us if we bet on the preseason or we will just save our money and start betting when the regular season starts.

Betting on pre season games is crazy.  Literally a coin flip.  No one knows who will play, for how long, etc.  But as far as watching.  As a knick fan I definately will watch.  Like to see how the rookies and fringe players play as they don't get much burn te during the year.  Good look at the depth of the team.  As far as watching other tes pre season games I probably wont.

They are all back! Steph, KLAY, Draymond and Andre' they are all part of the good era of warriors, now that they are reunited again the chemistry and that winning attitude will force everyone to work with them, they are now to be considered for the title contender, Coach Kerr just need to balance everyone.

The supporting cast are also better now, with Wiggins, Porter jr, lee, Bjelica, Toscano-Anderson they got fresh legs when the starters need some rest. Can't wait to see how they'll execute their offense to be their defense again. I love seeing all of them keep on moving until they find the right open man to take the shot.
Calm down mate Cheesy. Yes they are a great team but we are talking about a player who will return after nearly 1.5 years of not playing a game, a player who was never seen as great player (wiggins) and Draymond that got old and yes he was never stats guy but he got worse on defense as well (much better passer though). Curry is the only one that is having a great time, all the others started to be bad or have risks to be bad. Andre Igoduala also got way too old as well, and the bench players may have fresh legs but they are not good enough at all.

I would get Warriors a third best team on west at the very best case, probably 5th best team as well, even 6th is up for grabs. Lakers is the best in my opinion, then clippers, Utah, Denver which puts Warriors at 5th after these, and if Suns deal wasn't a shock and just one lucky season, then they may come back and be better than most teams again which would put them at 6th. This is just west, we also have better teams on east as well.

Probably not.  Especially with the Lakers.  With how old they are the less minutes they run in pre season is more they can run in reg/post.  You will see a lot of guys fighting for 12th-15th spots on the bench plus your rookies.  It's like a suped up version of the Vegas summer league.

Honestly when he has his head on his shoulders kyrie is as dangerous as anyone in the league.  Dude can score from any angle and creates all his own shots.  Very twitchy and hard to defend.  Problem is dude is a monster head case.  He can leave the team for 2 weeks at a time for some unknown reason.  Can't rely on a guy like that. Then there are the injuries.
Yes, I can't imagine how bad the Nets position will be if suddenly one of the trio stars gets injured and Kyrie will be in his emotional breakdown again.
With Harden left or Durant it will still be difficult just being a 1 headed monster. Having two or three will still be better than one shouldering all the offensive need of the team.
Last year was Harden's injury, what caused it maybe also from fatigue because he does it all. I am rooting for Mills to increase the energy of these guys and share what he learned from Spurs with Pops.

Mills is solid.  He is the perfect Ayer ypu want on your team that already has star power.  Always loved his game, true professional.  Need those people on a team that know their role and play to it.  That's how these "super tes" win.  Otherwise it won't work. Ehem Lakers.

Mills experienced if being used by Coach Nash may bring good impact,
this dude can act as role player who takes good care of the ball and keeps the rotation for the trio,
while if given a chance, he can also shoot with high percentage accuracy.

Forgetting all this drama and move forward to start the season. KD needs to become the leader that he should be,
now that he has the Nets, who will mostly depend on him to take over.

Kyrie and James, together with all the role players, need to acknowledge their alpha to have better run this season.

Story out now from Stephen A Smith about how the Nets were going to trade Kyrie for Ben Simmons and call him on his retirement bluff, but KD stepped in and said no, squashing any potential deal. Kyrie is lucky KD has his back. Hopefully Kyrie understands now that he isn’t #1 or #2 on that team. He’s a step above role player and needs to start acting like it.
KD must have understood how useful Kyrie's talent was to the team. They were together in the playoffs and they dominated their opponents while Harden was resting due to injury, and probably he thinks that Simmons could only be a liability to the team, especially during the playoffs, however, in the end, it's still the management decision that will be followed.

I’m only now seeing today’s news about crypto.com being the jersey sponsor for the 76ers this year and releasing a line of NFTs. This is so crazy. Crypto has come so far it’s hard to believe. The overall industry has really thrived in a limitless environment. No doubt a lot of basketball fans will be buying crypto to get NFTs just because of this brand deal.
I think it all started when some famous stars like Steph Curry purchase NFT, frenzy starts and now many NBA clubs like Sacramento Kings have their pages in Open Sea website:

Yep, for sure there are going to be hype around this.

And speaking of jerseys: Lakers land $100-million jersey patch deal with Korean foodmaker Bibigo.

Quote
The Lakers unveiled a new sponsor for their jersey patches Monday: Bibigo, a South Korean line of dumplings, sauces and frozen meals.

The five-year agreement is worth more than $100 million, according to people familiar with the deal but not authorized to disclose its terms publicly. NBA jersey patch deals have sold for an average range of $7 million to $10 million per year, according to The Athletic.

https://www.latimes.com/sports/lakers/story/2021-09-20/lakers-bibigo-100-million-jersey-patch-sponsorship-deal-korean-foodmaker

That's huge, it's so big that we can compare it to a NBA salary, $100 m in 5 years. Not sure though who's contract is along this line. Initially thought that it was a crypto related base on the name, but it is not unfortunately. And it was the first time that I heard about them to be honest.

It's huge but NBA is the most popular basketball league in the world, so the amount is just reasonable.

Regarding the salary, only one player could consume that $100 million for 5 years, actually Anthony Davis alone has a contract of $190 million for 5 years, and it's not enough to pay him.

This team tank so hard, now their President of basketball operations was fired. Maybe a change of officers would help this team, I hope there's no negative impact on the current roster as they really need to improve in the coming season.

He is inactive for 3 seasons, and his record on Indiana Pacers which his last team was not impressive. Well, if the Lakers will take chances then they can as Ellis would surely not demand a higher salary, and with this guy's experience, he can certainly help, I hope he still maintains playing basketball despite being out in the NBA for a while.
He coached kids in Mississippi so I guess the stamina is still there.
We don't know about how dangerous he is now though, perhaps there could be some peeks on their workouts so we can decide.
But if he will be signed by the Lakers then I think it will be a yes, he still got something up in his sleeves.

Great news, I thought before that crypto will only be recognized because it's used for sports betting but now it's a real adoption and an NBA team supporting crypto, I think it's a huge thing as it could attract the public to invest, especially the NBA Fans. I would say this is just the beginning, more sports organization will eventually adopt into crypto and crypto market will become more stable in the long run.

I think this is the effect of NFT trend craze since lots of teams from various sports such as E-Sports, Football and many more are already entering crypto space just to launch there own NFT. If I'm not mistaken there's already NBA team that already involve in crypto before this 76ers news. NFT will gonna more popular in the future once all of the sports, artist and collectors discover the potential of NFT feature. I believe many team will follow and NBA will adopt this in general for more profit possibility since there profit on ticket sales decrease due to pandemic.
