We have lots of games later. 11 games to be exact.
Here are my picks.
Milwaukee Bucks - Boston Celtics - Boston Celtics (-2.5)
Indiana Pacers - New York Knicks - New York Knicks (-1.5)
Minnesota Timberwolves - Miami Heat - Minnesota Timberwolves (-5.5)
Philadelphia 76ers - Charlotte Hornets - Philadelphia 76ers (-2.5)
Denver Nuggets versus Dallas Mavericks will be a fun game to watch live and maybe make a bet.
That's it for my early picks and I think I am going to pick more later before the other games start. Good luck everyone and have a nice day.

Good luck with your pick, @ralle14. The total was set pretty high, I would've bet on the over, but since I'm unlucky today, I think you'll win. 
I appreciate the nice words and your hunch is right the under came through for the Clippers game. The Clippers and Raptors were on a hot start in the first few minutes pushing the live total up to 230 points. Then in the next few minutes, the game slowed down thanks to both teams going cold and the live total went down to 205-210 points.The pace was so slow they squeezed the entire shot clock on every possession and the Raptors were barely shooting for 40%. The Raptors almost forced an OT in the fourth quarter, but i'm glad the Clippers closed it out and the Raptors couldn't get a stop in the final minute.
Congratulations on your win.. I managed to avoid the sweep too, lol. I honestly thought the Raptors had no chance since they were constantly playing catch-up. At one point, they even tied the game, but the Clippers pulled off some great plays down the stretch, finishing with a 2-point victory. That was super close to overtime, which would’ve messed up your total.

Early picks here for games late, let's see if we’re still profitable… the more picks, the more fun! 
Cavaliers -13 loss
Toronto +6.5
Chicago vs Atlanta over 238.5 loss
Utah Jazz under 106.5 loss
Toronto +6.5
Utah Jazz under 106.5
Looks like we're out of luck today. I’ve got one active bet left, but honestly, I’m not feeling it anymore, so I’m fine if I end up going 0-4. I'll just bounce back tomorrow. Just missed a little on the Chicago vs. Hawks game...1 point more, and it would’ve gone over! The Bulls made a solid comeback, trailing by double digits only to win by double digits themselves. Impressive.
As for the Cavs, I thought their win streak might be over. They won in the end but still fell short of covering the spread.

I'll try another total bet and this time it'll be the under 226.5 points for the Clippers match since I don't feel good about the handicaps being offered today.
With the Clippers having one of the slowest pace (third last) in the league, I think they can push the total points below 220 even though the Raptors have been putting up 110+ points per game except for their yesterday's loss against the Kings.

And like how the GSW made my bet won last time, I'm betting again on them. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers are doing pretty well, I'm counting for the GSW still.
We win some, we lose some. Golden State Warriors was totally destroyed by the Cleveland Cavaliers. I lost this bet and that's fine. Another impressive win by the Cavs having them with a 10-0 run.

6 out of 10 - that's a 60% win rate. A profitable day for me...
The Sixers just fell a bit short, only needed 2 more points. The scoring was great in the first half, but then it really slowed down in the second half.
Right, Draymond did play, and the Cavs really put up a show here in the first and second quarter. And as much as we love the Warriors, the Cavs just demolished them from the beginning. So congrats to those who bet on them, initially I saw it was like -/+2.5 in the line.
And for sure, Cavs are for real this season, they could be the biggest surprise, just like the OKC from last season who suddenly become the top team.
Thanks, the Warriors suddenly went cold while the Cavs stayed hot with their shooting to build that 40+ point lead in the half. I might take them tomorrow as well against the Nets. And for sure, Cavs are for real this season, they could be the biggest surprise, just like the OKC from last season who suddenly become the top team.
I'm glad it was a sweat-free win today since the past several days have been rough with the favorites.
Now they will be facing lead leading Cavs on the road, so it's a battle of the leaders right now. There are reports though that Draymond is not going to play same as Podz or they are questionable.
It's still not confirmed, but I see the odds shift to the Warriors. They're now down to 2.25 from 2.50 earlier and the spread moved by a point (+3.5).I guess their win against the Celtics convinced a lot of bettors to ride their momentum and the Cavs have been shaky even though they're able to hold on to their 9-0 record.
Even though the Cavs failed me last time against the Bucks, i'll always take them with these odds.

2 of 3. I know Giannis will play but I didn't change my bet. I am an idiot.
Later, we will have lots of games again. Here are my picks.
Orlando Magic - New Orleans Pelicans - New Orleans Pelicans ML @2.95 I don't know why they are underestimating the Pelicans way that far. Sure, too many injuries are listed. McCollum, Zion, and some roleplayers, they still have Brandon Ingram though. Without Banchero in Orlando, it's difficult for the Magic to get a good offense so I am relying on the Pelicans' defense to give them a hard time to score.
Charlotte Hornets - Indiana Pacers - Indiana Pacers (-4.5)
Boston Celtics - Brooklyn Nets - Boston Celtics (-10.5)
New York Knicks - Milwaukee Bucks - New York Knicks (-5.5)
Denver Nuggets - Miami Heat - Denver Nuggets (-1.5)
Good luck everyone.

So hopefully we can adjust our bets, I'm going with the Cavs at -4.5 at 1.91.
Ouch, I have already casted my bet upon knowing that report. But still, I'm with the Warriors against the Cleveland Cavs and good luck to both of us. Let's see if the Cavs will continue its dominance or if the Warriors are going to put a loss record on them.Now they will be facing lead leading Cavs on the road, so it's a battle of the leaders right now.

That's a massive win man, congratulations!
I really don't know how they Warriors have been able to it, being 7-1 in the season with the lineup rotation and all that, maybe it might not be sustainable for the long run and they'll need to figure out exactly what they want and their new identity, but there is no denying that it is working right now, and they should keep it going as it serves them.
This is another win for me yesterday.
And like how the GSW made my bet won last time, I'm betting again on them. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers are doing pretty well, I'm counting for the GSW still.
I can’t believe the Bucks' second-half performance. I thought they’d keep struggling, and if they won, it’d be a close game. At one point, the Jazz handicap looked like a winning bet, but then the Bucks suddenly played like their dominant selves again.
Realy...just goes to show - you can’t count a win before the game’s over.
The Jazz could've held on to a double-digit lead, but the Bucks chunked it down to a few possessions at the end of the second quarter.Realy...just goes to show - you can’t count a win before the game’s over.
They turned the ball over too much in the second half, helping the Bucks to quickly snowball the lead until the fourth quarter.
Good thing I went with a small bet, I knew the Bucks only needed one solid quarter and it felt like the bet was done after the third quarter.
Sounds really good, the Bucks are still trying to figure it out, although the Jazz are quite shorthand and haven't been doing impressive to say the least, but they should be able to cover the spread. Gl!
Bucks might even loss this game as they are trailing so far...
@ralle14 could have taken the moneyline instead.
hang on jazz, finish this 3rd quarter strong and just keep the game closer in the 4th, as long as you cover the handicap, it's a win.
Crazy how it all went south in that same third quarter, the Bucks came roaring back and turned it completely around, there just wasn't anyway for the Jazz to keep up and it was rather nail to the coffin after that in the 4th Quarter.
Perhaps, this win could help spark the Bucks season back into life, who knows?!
