With these long set of doubts about Moneyline, then just easily skip those bets. Trust your analysis.

Thee are handicaps, points spread or any other available bets on that match that you might to consider instead.

If still confused, then have a break and wait for another set of matches.

The Utah Jazz offense has been the NBA’s best through the last 13 games. Here’s why

Offensively the Jazz are at a high point for the 2019-20 season. They have shot a league-best 39% from 3-point range and have the best true shooting percentage in the league at 60.8 since Dec. 11

 Looking at sportsbet.io, there are moneyline options for all teams involved. Detroit has 1.30 odds to beat cavs, which looks quite possible and doable even without Blake Griffin honestly because Cavs have been dsyfuncitonal for a long time now, however 1.3 doesn't really worth it if you ask me, if it was over 1.7 I would have definitely wagered but 1.3 doesn't give you enough chance to win much on such a risk.

 There is celtics versus sixers, sixers have been not quite good recently and celtics just lost to spurs as well, it will be a very risky game for both sides, both sides wants to get back on the horse and start winning again but I feel like neither team will be on their %100 this game at all. Celtics are at 2.11 on moneyline, I suppose that looks like a good bet, not saying they will win for sure but at least its good odds for them to beat. It will be back to back tho, so I can understand anyone betting on sixers as well.

 Portland will definitely beat Wolves or at least they have to, it shouldn't even be close, this is basketball and even the 73-9 legendary team of warriors inevidently lost 9 games, so anyone can lose at any night and this is much much closer than warriors versus anyone back in their peak. However blazers are clearly the much better team and should win this game easily.

 Rockets versus OKC is a game I have no idea about, I mean it looks great on paper and we all would pick Rockets if were asked on the spot, however OKC has been playing a great game lately and I am not entirely sure if they are willing to stop now, it will be better matchup than sportsbooks allow it to look like, I doubt there will be a blowout like the odds suggests but %90 sure rockets will win anyway.
 

I can sort of understand people wishing Lakers ill because Lakers have so many rings and even in the last 20 years they won 5 rings which is only followed by spurs and nobody else won that many rings, hell even warriors had a huge trouble while them being basically the best team in the NBA for 5-6 years straight as well. However the real thing is, AD is staying in Lakers, dude declined 140 million dollars because he wants the 200 million dollar new contract which also allows him to have 5 years of veteran max as well.

I understand it is not about money for everyone in the NBA and we have seen that multiple times like how Kevin Durant got a pay cut to be in warriors etc but this would have been idiotic for AD to sign. This way he will make both a lot more money per year plus he will make more money on his veteran career as well when the new one ends, so it makes sense.

I'll go for Cleveland with this one as well. There is still a chance that Piston will win this Moneyline but they may not be able to cover the spreads.

Tight defense and poor execution. They literally have thrown the ball away on the last play.

If that will be the situation for Pistons, I wouldn't bet for them. Many are fans of Derrick Rose here and Griffin as well but if they are in dire situation and many of their roster are injured, it's a handicap for them. There's one rookie that caught my eyes because it's the media that is hyping him. Any thoughts about Sekou?

Thanks man, don't want to go with the full details (my lazy habit) but you really made an effort here.
Merit for that.

I think I will really go for Cleveland here. That is my first choice though when I saw the money line.
So Kevin Love is still playing. There might be a really good chance.

I would go with Cleveland on this. Cavs on their last game fought hard closing the scores at the end, it is a tight game and with a lot of players injured on Pistons, I will defenitely go with Cavs. Derrick Rose is a threat to my bet but, still going with Cavaliers.

They beat the Cavaliers on the road so they can do better at home for sure, and don't forget, Pistons have a healthy Derrick Rose now.

Still piston is a bit above in terms of morale coming in to this match up. I think it would be a win for the Pistons though not a blowout but still they would come out the Victor against a much weaker team on the Cavs.

That's correct, Joker took advantage on the absence of Porziņģis and it's obvious that the play is mostly made by him as he scored a lot of points in that win. KP's latest update dated Jan 7, 2020, 1:43 PM ET per https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/30160/kristaps-porzingis
I think the design was really for Luka to play but because of the tight defense, he wasn't able to execute it so he pass the ball.

Very close and I guess the Joker able to survive as Kriztop is not there to help Luka. it's great defensive stop from the Nuggets side
though it's really happened even to the great teams and when bad days hit you up there's no way to win against your own mistakes
great outcome with the very close matched.

Both teams have a lot of injured players..

For cleveland we have D. Exum, K. Porter Jr., L. Nance Jr., D. Windler
For Pistons we have, M. Morris,B. Griffin, L. Kennard, R. Jackson, , K. Thomas

Most of the starters of the Pistons are injured, so Cavaliers has a decent chance here.

There last game is won by the Pistons on the road in the score of 115 - 113.

Again with winning for the Jazz and then losing my bet for the Bulls.
It just tied my winnings. 
I really need to be better with looking at the future.  .

Cleveland +7 vs Detroit -7 +255 money for the Cavs.
Game will be later on. Any heads up for this game guys? Injuries or something?
I don't watch much Cavaliers game.

I think the Nuggets has done their job on minimizing the output of Doncic in this game. Of course they should put a body on him since his the focal point for the Mavericks. Though the Mavs almost win it, the Nuggets showed how to play defense on the very end of the game which results in turnover for the Mavs.

Tough defense coming from the Nuggets got them the win. They have forced turnovers for the Mavs in their last two possessions. And good play double-teaming on Donkic on their last play. It is also a good choice to give the ball to Jokic to make the winning shot.

I think the last play could have gone different if Porzingis is playing. It would have been easier to make the play and clutch shot for Doncic if Porzingis is there to lure the defense.

That is why I don't like to bet. I am not in a good position here. 
I love both teams and I know they could also come back from a losing streak. It is just difficult to predict. Betting here would just be for addition of excitement or for whomever your a fan of. There is no assurance of profit. 


Thanks again @mich for the link of a great article.
It sure does happen now.
NBA is worldwide, It ain't really national anymore. The (National) word is just for the name of the teams by now.

The game didn't went into OT, Denver steal a game on the road because the Mavericks wasted their last possession with a turnover.

Bad game for them, Jokic come out to be the hero in the game while Luka were not able to pull his magic in crucial times.

Good luck mate, 101 all is the score now and this game is a high scoring game so it's fun watching this.

I am not tuning in to live games yet but I will now, I hope this will end into OT so I will see an extra 5 minutes for this game.

As athletic and healthy LeBron is, he cannot fight father time. He is getting old and prone to the consequences of it like getting injured, getting slower. We cannot never really tell how effective he will still be next year.

I am watching this as well. It is a close game and will probably go down the line. I am betting for Nuggets to win this one.
