Wolves did try everything to win the game, but Nuggets really have the right pieces to shoulder and help the team to win,
Whatever the Wolves are doing, they find the right adjustment to  counter.

I believe that Nuggets can possibly sweep Wolves if they wanted to rest earlier. Edwards alone can't handle the Nuggets full force squad.

Game 3 will be in Minnesota, might be possible to try not to disappoint the fans, let see if they will be able to manage the home-court advantage.

The Heat should win at least one game on their home court to force a Game 7. It's not good for the Heat to lose even without Giannis on the Bucks, so they better shape up, bounce back from a huge loss, and get ahead in the series again. It will be entertaining if the series reaches Game 7, unlike the series between the Hawks and Celtics, where the Hawks were the team that blew them out in the play-in and put them in the last spot.

The Timberwolves are not clutch in finishing games. They were able to take the lead after a huge deficit, but they also melted down in the fourth quarter. I don't know if they can win on their home court, but if they win the next two games, it would make the series more interesting. Honestly, I believe that the Nuggets will be able to sweep the Timberwolves because KAT has been pretty limited in the last two games.

Well, who knows. They had been breaking record after record and this might be a new addition to them. But, the Sacramento Kings will need to defeat them first in Chase Center which we all know is difficult not just because of their home record but with how lively the fans are out there supporting their team. Unlike other domes, it's hard to find Kings' fans in that place. 

2/3. Not bad. And I had a side bet that also won. Lovely.


Good game from the Memphis Grizzlies. That is what they need while Ja Morant is still resting. The TNT guys said he cannot even dribble the ball or grip it which means it may take some time before he comes back or worse, not. That landing of his hand in game 1 was really dangerous.
Anyway, they won so good for them. Desmond Bane should be ready in Game 3 because he will be guarded better after he exploded today.

Milwaukee Bucks blew out the Miami Heat. 81 points in the first half and they just protected the lead until the end. The Bucks are strong without Giannis, we have witnessed that in the season.

How about the nail-biting game in Denver? I love it. The Timberwolves stayed as close as they can and even had a chance to take the lead.
Jamal Murray turned into a monster but so do Edwards who keep answering on every shot he will make. It almost looked like a duel between the two guards.
Luckily, the spread was covered with a point. -8.5 was my bet and the lead was just 9.  Lucky 2 free-throws from Bruce Brown.

Bucks - Heat is one hell of a series! Great basketball , amazing teamplay , good defense with a great offense and hard to chose so far between these 2. Miami tends to score a lot more in playoffs it seems and they also seems to found a way in 3rd quarter and also 2nd half to score as much as they can on Bucks but Bucks really loves to score man...and their offensive style is very hard to counter even for a defensive team like Miami.

Anyway , this series might be a 7 game one but it all depends on Heat next game.

No team has ever come back from a 0-3 deficit, so it's not very exciting to watch the Warriors in game 4 when they're already down 0-3. Draymond Green might be back, but it will probably be too late since he already made a costly mistake that resulted in a one-game suspension. I hope the Warriors win tomorrow, so they won't blame Draymond's wrong action for their loss.

Congratulations on another profitable day, @YuginKadoya. It's easy to predict the outcomes of the playoffs now, and we can make easy money if the trend continues. Tomorrow, I predict all the home teams will win: Warriors, Nets, and Clippers. I'll take the spread for the favorites and the moneyline for the underdogs.

In my opinion, this is the best chance to use the martingale strategy since we have a higher chance of winning due to the high predictability of the game outcomes. However for the Warriors and Nets, if they still lose in game 3, I would not bother doubling in game 4 as swept is possible.

here are the result of my picks for today's game

Memphis Grizzlies VS Los Angeles Lakers SCORE 103 - 93 - LOST

Whoa! I was shocked to see the Grizzlies won but seeing the stats the Grizzlies made a great job to make that spread and Xavier Tillman has made an adjustment in making the team get this win, I really never expected Tillman to be this good, while the Lakers didn't cover much spread, so it is a win for the Grizzlies, Desmond Bane got 17 points, Jaren Jackson Jr. got 18 points, and Xavier Tillman has a double-double of 13 rebounds and 22 points,

Milwaukee Bucks VS Miami Heat SCORE 138 - 122 - WIN

No Giannis Antetokounmpo no problem, well just like I have said the team of the Bucks now is not a pushover for sure and could likely become champion for this season, Pat Connaughton got 22 points, Jrue Holiday has a double-double of 11 assists and 24 points and Brook Lopez got 25 points,

Denver Nuggets VS Minnesota Timberwolves SCORE 122 - 113 - WIN

Just like with the game of the Bucks VS Heat surely the Nuggets made got the lead from start to finish, and the Timberwolves and with the Lead of Anthony Edwards made a hard game for the Nuggets, and the Nuggets have shrug it off even with Edwards getting a great score but the Nuggets have to fend them off, Micahel Porter Jr. got 16 points Nikola Jokic got 27 points and Jamal Murray got 40 points,

I almost lost my bet on Denver since I thought they wouldn't have a good run in the 4th quarter. The Timberwolves were huge in the 3rd quarter, outscoring the Nuggets by 17 points. Luckily, the Nuggets conserved enough energy to have a strong 4th quarter, and they won by 9 points, which was enough to cover my bet of -8. It's definitely something to celebrate!

The refs might also be favoring the home team as they have the home court advantage. Have you watched JJ Redick's interview about the Draymond Green case? He said that the refs were favoring the Kings in their two home games, which is why the Warriors struggled to win. So it's possible that the same thing is happening here. Refs have a huge influence on the game, but hopefully, it will not kill the fun.

10 point lead, so the bet is lost. Good thing is that I was unable to bet in this game because I'm going with the Lakers bandwagon because of what they show in game 1.

And even without Ja Morant, the Grizzlies shows heart, two of their big guys, Tillman and Jackson carry the team in their shoulders and both almost had double doubles to bet with their scoring. But that 3 by Brooks from way back was the dagger for the Lakers. On the other hand, the Lakers is missing their 3 point shot down the stretch, 1 by D'Lo, 1 by Reaves and then by Lebron that could have close the game in the last 2 minutes of the game.

Good luck! There's still a chance for the Lakers since Memphis hasn't pulled away yet. This is only game 2, and Memphis needs to even the series, but it's okay if they win as long as the Lakers cover the spread for you. It's been a very interesting game so far, and I'm impressed by how Memphis is handling the pressure despite missing their best player.

Game time between the Lakers and Memphis,

Memphis open up a great lead in the second quarter, 15 points. But it's too early, maybe the Lakers can come back in the second half.

So I'm taking the Lakers +6.5 right now, odds is still very attractive at 2.10, live betting.

Was getting ready to place a big fat bet on the Lakers, logged in to my gambling site and saw this..I do a fare amount of sports gambling and honestly I can't remember there being no odds for any game the same day of, let alone just a few hours outside of the games tip-off/start time etc.  Have you guys seen stuff like this before?  I know some sports books have the Grizzlies at -1 or the game at even, I'd be dropping a bet on those all day.

Laid off last night and glad I did would have went even either way.

Tonight I got all 3 games in and it goes 2 home teams and one away team:

1) memphis even.  I still like Memphis in this series amd not convinced with the Lakers.
2) bucks -8.5 at home.  I think Bucks make the necessary adjustments on Jimmy buckets and without Herro in they will need another shooter to come up huge.
3) Timberwolves.  Last game was terrible and they played like crud.  Expecting a closer game all the way around.  I'm counting on a back door cover with Denver winning but not covering.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Los Angeles Lakers

The Memphis Grizzlies will take on the Los Angeles Lakers in game 2 tonight at FedExForum Arena the Grizzlies' key injuries are Jake LaRavia (Calf) out Steven Adams (Knee) out Ja Morant (hand) questionable, while the Lakers' key injuries are Dennis Schroder (foot) questionable LeBron James (foot) questionable Anthony Davis (foot) questionable.

Denver Nuggets vs  Minnesota Timberwolves

The Denver Nuggets will take on the Minnesota Timberwolves in game 2 tonight at Ball Arena the Nuggets' key injuries are Nikola Jokic (Wrist) questionable while The Timberwolves' key injuries are Jaden McDaniels (hand) out, Naz Reid (Wrist) out, Rudy Gobert (back) questionable, and Jaylen Nowell (knee) questionable.

Cavs definitely showed a big improvement there is no doubt about that, but at the end of the day Knicks took the game and that's the important part for them as well. I mean there is this back and forth so far, but that could change at any given moment, Cavs lost one at home, so if Knicks ends up winning back to back at home that means 3-1 and I doubt that it would be possible to make a comeback from there. All in all I would still give the series to Knicks and I am going to bet on them for the next 2 games as well.

Celtics are already better than Hawks to begin with, so it won't be difficult to actually have anything that could make a change, it is going to be something that would be impossible for Hawks to beat them.

Thanks, Man I Appreciated it, well, For me I would definitely go with the Home Court advantage Milwaukee Bucks and Denver Nuggets but for the Memphis Grizzlies I can not trust them in this game and the Lakers are a different caliber team right now since the instant trade they got, that was really surprising, so yeah Antetokounmpo will surely play but for a period of time, but Milwaukee Bucks is a capable team even without Giannis,

Now Here is my pick for games today,

Memphis Grizzlies VS Los Angeles Lakers

The stake odds for this game are 1.96 for the Grizzlies and 1.89 for the Lakers, Right now Jake LaRavia and Steven Adams can not play for the Grizzlies and Ja Morant is doubtful in this game while Dennis Schroder, LeBron James, and Anthony Davis are all doubtful if they can play for this game well if this game won't end up the Los Angeles Lakers VS the Referee's again then I think the Lakers could win this but pun intended my pick is the Los Angeles Lakers,

Milwaukee Bucks VS Miami Heat

The stake odds for this game are 1.38 for the Bucks and 3.15 for the Heat, Right now Wesley Matthews, can not play for the Bucks and Giannis Antetokounmpo are doubtful if they can play for the Bucks, while Nikola Jovic and Tyler Herro can not play for the Heat, for this game Tyler Herro is a crucial player for the Heat, but I guess Antetokounmpo can still play but not that active but I guess I can never underestimate the bucks in their home court, so my pick is the Milwaukee Bucks,

Denver Nuggets VS Minnesota Timberwolves

The stake odds for this game are 1.27 for the Nuggets and 3.95 for the Timberwolves, right now Nikola Jokic is doubtful if he can play for the Nuggets, while Jaden McDaniels and Naz Reid can not play for the Timberwolves, Rudy Gobert and Jaylen Nowell are both doubtful if they can play for the Timberwolves, for this game looking at the injuries for the Timberwolves and the Nuggets domination, my pick is at home Denver Nuggets,

Of course, these bookies are always steps ahead so that they can take advantage of the game and make the bettors confused about the odds that they will give. Anyway, the Bucks are still favored by the bookies and not going to lie, the remaining roster can still be a challenge and a big problem for the Miami Heat even if let's say Giannis will not be around with the team in the Game 2. I will look and bet on this game live for precautions because either way, Bucks are still the favorites.

Denver Nuggets -8.5 vs Minnesota Timberwolves
(Key Injuries: Nikola Jokic, Jaylen Nowell and Rudy Gobert are questionable)

I believe so too. The Bucks can win without him but having him is a big plus for their roster. And, if you look at the odds, they are still the favorite despite their superstar not playing. I think that's because the Miami Heat is also missing an important piece in their roster. Tyler Herro. Their bucket man.

Surgery, which is far worst than what happened with Giannis. If the Bucks could split this one in their homecourt then I bet they will likely win the series if they are optimistic about Giannis' return in their next games to come.

Milwaukee Bucks versus Miami Heat‍ - Milwaukee Bucks (-4.5)
Memphis Grizzlies versus Los Angeles Lakers - Los Angeles Lakers ML Ja Morant is questionable, but three of the Lakers stars are probable. Lebron James, Anthony Davis, and Dennis Schroder. I checked the props though and I can see all three available to bet with.
Denver Nuggets versus Minnesota Timberwolves - Denver Nuggets (-8.5) It will most likely be the same as what happened in Game 1. All the Nuggets needed is to be pure on the defensive end because their offense so far is amazing.
