I am with the Cleveland Cavaliers too and I am taking the risky ML. 
Here are my 3 bets for all the games today.


IMO that Phoenix Suns bet against the San Antonio Spurs is a bonus round. Even though they got Wemby now, Kevin Durant is still the more experienced player who could shut them down anytime. Devin Booker is still doubtful but I do believe he will play, I hope so.

Orlando Magic may have shown how strong they are against the Lakers yesterday but this will be a back-to-back game for them while the Clippers had their good rest even though most of their bench has already been traded to the 76ers.

Good luck everyone.

Thank you @danherbias07...

I have an early lean for tomorrow's games, even though there are only three on the board. As usual, I'll choose the one where I feel I have the best chance of winning, LOL. So, the game I'm looking at is the Knicks vs. Cavaliers.

Mitchell is currently listed as questionable, but I have a hunch that he'll play. Therefore, I'm leaning toward taking the +3.5 early. It's possible that the odds could shift in favor of the Knicks if Mitchell indeed plays. Regardless, I believe that Cleveland will put in a strong effort, especially since they haven't secured a home win this season, and it would be their third consecutive home loss if they don't step up.

Blowout game baby! Damn, the Warriors are strong. That's a win for you @stadus even without the handicap.
Sadly I missed betting for the Warriors, I forgot to check the lines last night and when I opened the television it was already in 2nd half with the Warriors leading by a big amount. It would be foolish to still take the negative spreads so I just finished watching the game instead.

@xLays It looks like you won most of your singles. Congratulations.


The last game is LA Lakers versus Orlando Magic and they are still playing as of the time of writing. 3rd quarter and the Magic is on the lead. A good time to bet if you believe the Lakers can win this game. It's just a 2 point lead so I am guessing this will end in a close game if the Magic will keep on playing at a high level performance.

Congratulations! Betting on the Warriors turned out to be quite easy, with Curry leading the charge once again. He showcased his incredible scoring ability, delivering an impressive 42-point performance. With such consistency, there's no doubt he's on track for an MVP title. Even in the absence of Klay Thompson, the Warriors managed to secure a victory on the road.

As for your Heat bet, it was a close one, with just a 0.5-point difference, resulting in an 8-point win by the Bucks. Lillard made his return with a solid 25-point performance.

Warriors vs Pelicans.

The matchup between the Warriors and the Pelicans is quite interesting. The Pelicans have maintained a perfect record this season, while the Warriors are facing a back-to-back road game. On paper, the Pelicans appear to be an attractive choice here. However, I can't resist betting on the Warriors, given their impressive performance in their last two games. With Draymond Green back, even if he's on a minute restriction, it instills confidence that the Warriors can go on a big run to secure a victory. Therefore, I'm leaning towards the Warriors with the +2.5 spread. As for a side pick, I'm considering the Miami Heat at +7.5, particularly because I believe Lillard's struggles may persist, especially against a strong defensive team.

Here are some of my NBA bet picks for tonights games.
Pacers since bench players are playing amazing basketball and everyone on this team is contributing. This makes it a great team to watch so far.

Nets because In the last game between the Nets and Dallas, the Nets should have won, but Luka was just lucky to hit that last-second 3-pointer. The rest picks only prediction. Lol

Here are the results of my bet and prediction for this game

Oklahoma City Thunders VS Denver Nuggets SCORE 95 - 128 - WIN

For sure the Oklahoma City Thunders are pretty much new players and for sure a team that still doesn't stand a chance against the Denver Nuggets for sure, and for this game the Denver Nuggets surely is a strong team not just because they are champion but Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray is something that is pretty much different now, but for this game, Peyton Watson got 17 points, Jamal Murray got 19 points, Michael Porter Jr. got 20 points and Nikola Jokic has a double-double of 14 rebounds and 28 points for this game,

Milwaukee Bucks VS Atlanta Hawks SCORE 110 - 127 - LOST

I was pretty much surprised but the Atlanta Hawks won against the number 1 seed in the east and now that Damian Lillard is in the team but again the Hawks have managed to surprise the Milwaukee Bucks on this game for sure but I really don't know what happened to Lillard with that Turn over he is not himself on this game for sure Trae Young have gotten great teammates for this season, for this game the Hawks got a great spread, De'Andre Hunter and DeJounte Murray both got 15 points, Bogdan Bogdanovic got 17 points and Trae Young has a double-double of 11 assist and 20 points,

Philadelphia 76ers VS Portland Trail Blazers SCORE 126 - 98 - WIN

As this game is pretty much obvious and Deandre Ayton is now with the Portland Trail Blazers, but even though that is for them the 76ers still managed to get this done and I am right all along with this game Tobias Harris got 24 points, Tyrese Maxey has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 26 points, and Joel Embiid has a double-double as well of 15 rebounds and 35 points,

There were high expectations for Lillard, which is why people are feeling disappointed. However, we have to remember that Lillard is human, and he's bound to make mistakes. I'm confident that he won't struggle in every game. Now that some fans are disappointed, it's uncertain what they'll expect from him in the next game. As for me, I believe in betting on players like Lillard because they know how to bounce back from a poor performance. Their upcoming game is on the road against the Toronto Raptors, who are also a good team, especially on the defensive end. Let's see how would this go.

Lots of fans and gamblers might be disappointed from how Lilard performed after that great debut but we can't say if what happened or what might be the missing piece with the whole team performance, not just Lilard but all the players who play alongside with him and Giannis they are all responsible for the outcome of the game, just so happen that Hawks got that good balance with their productions and the rotations is not just focus with Young but all are giving that lift to create good offensive executions.

It was indeed disappointing to see him struggle significantly, especially after his strong debut performance. He only managed to finish with 6 points this time. It's evident that their chemistry as a team is still a work in progress. I mean, Lillard is undoubtedly a great player, and I believe that his current production is the lowest he has ever recorded in a single game throughout his entire NBA career.

^^ Yeah, it's too bad that I ride on the Bucks against the Hawks in the games last night. I thought that with Dame's performance against the Sixers, they are going to continue their winning at their homecourt.

However, I didn't watch the game though, I just put a bet and that's it. And when I checked the score, and seeing what the contributions of Lillard, I thought that here we go again, he might have injured himself before of his low scoring ball game with that many turnovers.

For sure many of us was caught off-guard and losses big on the Hawks upsetting the Bucks.

2 of 3. Not bad.



A little surprised the Bucks lost and Damian Lillard made the same number of turnovers and points. 6 turnovers and 6 points. Well, I guess they are not yet accustomed to each other.
Denver Nuggets on the other hand proved why they are the champions. Blew out the OKC Thunder with their trio working together. Jokic, Jamal Murray, and MPJ. Then, there's Christian Braun who is gaining more confidence scoring 13 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists. Damn, that kid has a good future ahead of him as long as he keeps on playing at a high level whenever he is given a chance for more minutes.

Only three teams in the West are left which are not defeated yet. Mavericks, Nuggets, and Pelicans. The Warriors might be the ones who will stain the record of the Pelicans as they play tomorrow.

Congratulations to all the winners.

which team would you rather go against bucks if they are to play?
i was following the bet picks in here. glad to have won it all except the last game of bucks.
 missed clippers and san antonio this time.



i notice none is trying to bet on handicap, anyone doing it?  i'm trying to possibly maximize win with minimum bet amount.

My preference will be for Sacramento in this match because I think they are a faster and more versatile team than the Lakers. Sacramento won 3 of the 4 games between them last season, while the Sacramento have a 6-4 edge in the last 10 games. The Kings had a comfortable win in Utah but then couldn't escape Golden State at home. The Lakers can also use their experience advantage well but I expect the Kings to prevail in this one.

The San Antonio Spurs continue their rebuilding process but they have also had a good start to the season. After the defeat in Dallas, they defeated Houston and they don't have many problems on offense, especially in the current situation. The Los Angeles Clippers opened the season with a win against Portland and lost to Utah in the second game. Once again they signaled that their consistency is not to be trusted. Recent games between the two teams have been up tempo. I think that trend could continue in this game. Spurs are my favorite.

I tail with here mate, I think the Warriors will be too good for the young Houston Rockets. I'm seeing two scenarios, Warriors building a huge lead early and Rockets closing but going to feel short. Or it's going to be a very close game, but the experience of the Warriors will take over in the last 6 minutes of the game and then taking the Dub here.


It's really hard to go against the Bucks, specially with how Dame takes over the game. So I'm expecting that Giannis might pull another 20++ ppg and 10++ rebounds to help Dame again to win. Hawks doesn't look good and with their big man John Collins still not playing, the Bucks should be give the Hawks their 3rd L.

∆ G. Antetokounmpo 35+ PR / Bucks ML @1.75 ∆  X

Giannis finished with exactly 35 (points and rebounds) in the Bucks' season opener against the 76ers, who are a considerably tougher opponent than the Hawks. Following Collins' departure this offseason, Atlanta is running a small lineup with only one big (Capela), and S. Bey will be the primary defender on Giannis. Bey is a 6'7 SF...good luck stopping Giannis tonight.

Here are my bets for later.

Oklahoma City Thunder - Denver Nuggets - Denver Nuggets (-1.5) - Thunder have not lost yet and could be the reason why the handicap is not that high although the Nuggets had won the championship last year. SGA is not to be underestimated but I think the Nuggets can steal this one from their home and blemish their perfect record.

One more bet for the away team.
Houston Rockets - Golden State Warriors - Golden State Warriors (-3.5) @1.71 I still feel that the Warriors are building chemistry but they are good at making it look like they played a long time with CP3. Also, the point god had been doing great at protecting the ball for the team and his playmaking ability is top-notch that suddenly the Warriors had lessened their turnovers, unlike last year.

One for the home team.
Milwaukee Bucks - Atlanta Hawks - Milwaukee Bucks (-3.5) Lillard is doing great at giving the Bucks one more choice for their offense, not all eyes are on Giannis anymore so they can move better.

Good luck everyone. 

1-2 last night and 5-7 vs the book for the year.  Need to re evaluate my knicks bets

Day 5 NBA betting here are my 3 picks for the day:

1) denver -3.5 riding them on low spreads.
2) sacramento -2.5 at home vs Lakers.  Gonna be a fun game to watch.
3) bucks -6.5 at home.  Thus bucks team single digit favorites at ho.e seems to be a gimme here.

Good luck today and enjoy the games!
