The DRose dilemma now.
Yes that might happen. He is at risk now but theh still need to finish his contract or else they will be breaching it.

For that amount of time everything could change and I do think DRose knows about it already.
If he does he might be going through now with hardcore practices to get back what skill that he had loss.
That way, if Twolves does not really want him then he could still get a better offer on other teams.
I bet his 50 point game made some scouts to consider taking him again.

Twolves, can easily waived Drose, knowingly that they only invested on him for a year and I doubt if they'll renew it again. On the better side, "let's take his 50 point game" as a credit, and it might be a good thing to consider. But, The only thing I see on how Drose can boost himself out on the market is if he could complete this season without having major injury that could limit his playing time. As I see right now, his doing well though there are some missed games due to minor injuries but I think this won't make an huge effect.

Lucky bet for Blackmamba, he won again and the Hawks almost steal this game.
Warriors having a hard time with the Hawks but they won in the end, on the other hand, hawks loss but they easily cover the spread with is over 14.5
Blackmamba is on a winning streak right now, hard not to tail him as he just gave me the first win by tailing his bet.

I won but I still regret because I was planning to make a bet in a winning margin for Raptors which is Raptors winning margin 1-5 If I win it's x10 or 15 something. Too much regret here that I didn't go to with that feelin. Anyways, my NBA Betting Journey is now 3-0. And for tomorrows game I made a bet in Houston Rocket with a moneyline 2.01 against Milwaukee Bucks 1.88 odds. I chose Houston Rockets because it's a homecourt advantage for them. Any thoughts about this match?

Oh well, you've got your first loss here mate, even harden played like a monster again but he didn't lift the rockets against the best team from the east, this is really exciting to watch out, how giannis will lead his team to the playoffs looking forward for them for new competition in the other side of the league.

Noel got injured really badly, I really hope its nothing serious. He dropped badly and his neck seemed like it moved way more than it should. I think it is great that his arms and legs moved afterwards which means his brain is still sending signals to his body which means he will not be paralyzed most probably but it was really bad and I hope it is not a brain injury.

It also shows how a player can ruin his career so badly, he was drafted by Sixers and demanded money, he didn't get the minutes and money he wants from there so he moved to Dallas where he rejected the amount that was offered and sit on the bench, now he is on OKC and trying to make a comeback (at least he is young) but he got this injury now. You can think you worth a lot more but if you say no to money offered to you there is always a risk of not getting even that amount with one bad fall.

He didnt have the right body to go against a bigger one. There is no balance in mid air and you could just rely on a good hit so that you will land better.

He landed bad and his head bounced to the floor like his neck have no bones.
Darn. I hate to see those kind of injuries. This is one problem also with high flyers. They tend to focus only on going up but never thought of their way down.
Ouch for Oklahoma. A good player indeed and getting more minutes.

Inplay betting gone right , at one point of time I wanted to bet on Houstons ( after 3rd quarter actually ) but didn't and it worked out well . I wish I bet higher ( things gamblers say)

That was an easy pick, congrats mate, though the Rockets loss the game, you were still able to make money betting on them.
I got the opposite, I do bet on the Bucks live with "Milwaukee Bucks @ 2.05", and I enjoyed a little win, there's really money in live betting especially if you are watching it.

For a second, I thought it was Joel Embiid, it's the first name that came in my mind and thanks I just misread it because I don't know if the Sixers still has a chance to enter into playoffs without him. Here's some of the link http://www.nba.com/article/2019/01/08/nerlens-noel-stretchered-vs-timberwolves, for those who haven't watch the game like me.

Injuries cannot be avoided in NBA due to the physicality of the game but I hope for a speedy recovery of Nerlens Noel.

Was able to watch the game on TV and it was really a scary fall because his head literally bounce off. Good to hear that he is ok with no serous injuries whatsoever.

Yes, the game was evolved so much that sometimes injury can't really avoided. It was a good win though for the Wolves with their interim coach, youngest coach ever but I think it will be a good move if they hire someone with experience, imho.

I have to admit it Timberwolves were lucky that Russell Westbrook missed that shot making Ryan Saunders debut game as a W. The stretch of games the Timberwolves have next will be a nice transition for him as a head coach most of the teams they are facing next are the same caliber as them. For you looking for updates for him the owner said that the management would be bringing up a coach with a head coaching experience as a assistant for Ryan to help him with his transition.

P.S.
Love that Wiggins scored 40 points tonight but I didn't liked how Nerlens Noel got knocked out mid air by one of his drives and hit the floor with his head. Hope that he is ok and this is not a career-ending injury.

Same reason on why Thibs got ousted by the Chicago bulls. Tbh, Thibs is a good coach however, he see basketball not as a team play/sport. He's forcing his players to there max limit, and not thinking about the longevity of the career of his stars, and not maximizing the potential of other players.

On the other hand, Drose's Twolves stay may also be at risk, I guess, knowingly that Thibs was the only one who believe that he could be the way he is right now. Though, given that Drose somehow regain it's composure this season, I guess there would be number of offers he might be able to land.

And they can also make playoffs if Jimmy Bulter didn't leave the Minnesota Timberwolves. And if you ask me I don't see any chances that Minnesota Timberwolves can make playoffs this season.

Disagree for me. Jimmy Butler is not the key for Timberwolves to reached playoffs. As far as my own analyzation is concern, Butler is good but he is inconsistent. I have said that lots of times even prior to his drama.

Don't look at his stats but his overall behaviour. He already exchanged words with Karl Anthony Towns and Anthony Wiggins so staying at Twolves is not a good idea anymore.

Anyways we are not yet on the season half so it's early for me to speculate what will happen to Twolves.

That's really the best choice with a nice odds. No matter how dominant Raptors is compare to Hawks, covering over 14 is kind of difficult task. Really worth to put a shot. And interesting, it's almost a win by the Hawks spoiling Kawhi.

Grats bettors.

I didn't make a bet for today's matches so that I will decide to make a bet for tomorrow's game which I choose to bet into Atlanta Hawks with Spread +14.5 (1.97) against Toronto Raptors with -14.5 (1.92). My NBA betting journey standing is (2W-0L) hoping for 3-0 for this bet. lol

Good luck on that bet, Raptors have been playing superb basketball despite some injuries in the squad.
This game is played at the Raptors home and I believe they can win this game but -14.5 seems very high for them to cover, I think I like your bet.
It's a game that the public are expecting it will be an easy win by the Raptors, so how about bet against the public and put some bet on moneyline too?

Disregarding the overall standings, I also think the line is kind of not an easy one to cover even for a healthy Raptors. But there are chances. Well then the odds is quiet decent to worth to put a shot. Can't check my preferred sport betting sites today as my connection is laggy as hell but I will assume odds for Hawks ML is kind of tempting too.

About Timberwolves firing their president and head coach Tom Thibodeau, although I found it awkward for an experienced player to be coached by a younger player, take note that Ryan Saunder is the assistant coach of the Wolves since 2014.

So in terms of game play or whatever strategy he will proposed, it will not be a big deal if it will be executed properly as some part of Twolves squad is already used to him around.

Lucky bet for Blackmamba, he won again and the Hawks almost steal this game.

"The twelve will struggle in this game" but I think they are going to win. I have confidence in they winning and I have taking my bet on that.

Twolves? well they will face against Oklahoma City Thunders. I'm betting with no one on this fight but its a good match since I'm a fan of Derrick Rose and Russell Westbrook.
Are you betting with Timberwolves for this match? Since Twolves is getting the crowd noise to this thread and we will see on how this game would end up.

Well if we talk about Jimmy Bulter didn't leave the Minnesota Timberwolves they might have the chance to win this match. And they can also make playoffs if Jimmy Bulter didn't leave the Minnesota Timberwolves. And if you ask me I don't see any chances that Minnesota Timberwolves can make playoffs this season.

They won the game, wiggins played well with 40 points together with the team even without butler nor Drose they able to escape from the hands of Westbrook, though the chances to be in the playoffs is still questionable especially now that the west composed of competitive teams, who knows
what fate will bring them maybe if DRose will be back to its fit and be the one that we always wants him to be.

What a game between the two. Wiggins had a big night, but George has a lot of crucial missed 3's and even one of his shot was block. Big chance from OKC to win the game, but they wasn't able to hit anything in the dying seconds. Hard lost for them.

Yeah, familiarity would help the plan to execute very well. They are professionals but there will be some ego's that would feel them that they shouldn't be coached by a younger player.

But that's a professional matter and they just have to play on their roles that was appointed to them. Who is watching the game right now of Timberwolves? the game's close.

The NBA today is crazy, from having almost all of the games a 100+ points per team to constantly firing coach. How ridiculous. But yeah, I agree about Tom Thibs, he had a good Chicago Bulls team that could potentially reach the finals, but he didnt, and the 2010 - 2014 Heat aint enough of a reason.

It is said that Hoiberg has been in talks with wolves and that is why Thibs got fired this quickly right after a win. They agreed with Hoiberg on principal and the money was alright so they are willing to fire Thibs and get him. If Hoiberg gets hired in the upcoming days we will know that Hoiberg was already in talks with twolves before they fired Thibs.

On which ,I assume is the normal how things run around there, after all they couldn't just fire Thibs before knowing who they want to hire, they had to talk with someone and make sure they have a backup plan in case Thibs could be gone. I think it could be a kidd-bud type of difference.

Last year bucks played insane minutes and players were really not happy with how things were going but in the end they got bud and fired kidd and now they are much better. Hoiberg would probably make them less minutes and players careers will be prolonged since they won't be playing 38+ minutes per game.
