4 games today but I only have 3 bets on the line. I forgot to put my early bets so I missed the Grizzlies game against the Lakers. Anyway, the Lakers won that game. Another upset.

Milwaukee Bucks - Miami Heat - Milwaukee Bucks (-4.5) I caught this just right now while the Miami Heat is in the lead at the end of 1st quarter.
Phoenix Suns - Los Angeles Clippers - Phoenix Suns (-5.5)
Denver Nuggets - Minnesota Timberwolves - Denver Nuggets (-6.5)

Let's see if there will be another upset that will happen. I hope not because I am looking forward to having a perfect winning night.
Good luck to all of us.

Here are my late picks for today's game

Milwaukee Bucks VS Miami Heat

The stake odds for this game are 1.22 for the Bucks and 4.50 for the Heat, Right now the Bucks don't have any injuries while Nikola Jovic can not play for the Heat, which is why my pick will be the Milwaukee Bucks, but betting for Giannis Antetoukoumpo to Score plus 30 points

Phoenix Suns VS Los Angeles Clippers

The stake odds for this game are 1.32 for the Suns and 3.55 for the Clippers, right now Cameron Payne is doubtful if he can play for the Suns, while Paul George can not play for the Clippers because Paul George is a crucial member of the team my pick will be the Phoenix Suns betting on Kevin Durant making 30 plus points,

Denver Nuggets VS Minnesota Timberwolves

The stake odds for this game are 1.29 for the Nuggets and 3.80 for the Timberwolves, Right now there are no further injuries for the Nuggets while Jaden McDaniels and Naz Reid can not play for the Nuggets, Jaylen Nowell, and Rudy Gobert is doubtful if they can play because of the injuries and doubtful my pick is the Denver Nuggets,

Phoenix Suns -5.5 vs Los Angeles Clippers
The Los Angeles Clippers (5th seed) will take on the Phoenix Suns (4th seed) on the first round of the Playoffs tonight at Footprint Center. With Paul George out in the first round of the Playoffs and the main cast of Suns fully healthy, the Phoenix Suns are heavily favored to win this game. The Clippers have won on the road against the Suns but without PG and Kevin Durant playing, the Suns should be able to control the outcome of the game.
Clippers key injuries: Paul George (knee) out
Suns key injuries: Cameron Payne (back) questionable


Denver Nuggets -5.5 vs Minnesota Timberwolves
The Minnesota Timberwolves (8th seed) will take on the Denver Nuggets (1st seed) on the first round of Playoffs tonight at Ball Arena. The games between these two teams are decided by 10 points or more. With a fully healthy Nuggets team, the Timberwolves have no chance in this game.
Timberwolves key injuries: Rudy Gobert (back) questionable, Jaden McDaniels (hand) out, Jaylen Nowell (knee) questionable

Milwaukee Bucks -7.5 vs Miami Heat
The Miami Heat (8th seed) will take on the Milwaukee Bucks (1st seed) tonight at Fiserv Forum. The Heat are only 1-4 against the spread in their last 5 meetings against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Heat key injuries: Nikola Jovic (back) out, Kyle Lowry (knee) questionable, Gabe Vincent (hip) questionable

The only game here I’m not feeling confident about is the Bucks and Heat. If Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo have big games and manage to contain Giannis, I feel like they could make that a close game. 

I think Bucks can handle this and I’m more on hesitant on betting to Lakers than Bucks right now since they will play against Grizzlies on the home which we all know Ja is so good. Lebron has a high chance of choking on game 1 on playoffs with the current roster.

Lakers just manage to do the win streak run because they are facing teams without their core players available. So literally they are just playing against the enemy team bench player and still they have a hard time on some these matches.

Still early on but the Lakers aren't playing too bad.  I'm hesitent to bet either way on any of these games in that series.  In the other games I got

The Suns -7.5
Heat with the points +9.5
And I'm also taking the Timberwolves +8.  KAT and gobert should keep this close and not let jokic take over. 

Enjoy the games everyone and good luck Smiley

Los Angeles Lakers over the Memphis Grizzlies
Milwaukee Bucks over the Miami Heat
Phoenix Suns over the Los Angeles Clippers
Denver Nuggets over the Minnesota Timberwolves

The only game here I’m not feeling confident about is the Bucks and Heat. If Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo have big games and manage to contain Giannis, I feel like they could make that a close game.

With only light betting during the week with the playin the playoffs are finally here.  Have to take a stab at all 4. 

1) taking Philly at home -8.5
2) Hawks +9.5. Trey is a different dude in the playoffs between him and Murray they should be able to keep this close.
3) THEEEEE NY Knicks moneyline.  Yep Homer bet but I'm taking it.
4) and too much money coming in on the Warriors.  I'm taking the home team -1 kings.  Think GS takes the series but this will be a tough game.  Going against the grain.

Good luck everyone and enjoy!! Go KNICKS!!!
3 of 4 @wheelz1200! Very nice. I should've tailed you instead on that game. Congratulations to you.
I got 2 of 4 only.

Philadelphia 76ers -10.5 - Win
Boston Celtics -10.5 - Win
Cavs -3.5 - Loss - This is big for those who won the Knicks' Moneyline.
Warriors -3.5 - Loss

I watched only the Warriors game and I even added another bet for them when they are up by 3. I thought they are playing good basketball especially with Wiggins back but the turnovers are hurting them and Fox was on fire with his perimeter shots.

I only bet on the Warriors game and obviously it's the only game that I watch and unfortunately for us, the Warriors lost that game. But definitely the series is still long and all they have to do is steal one game which they almost did. That Wiggins three though, if it just falls in the Warriors could have won this game. For sure they've seen what the Kings can offer so it's Steve Kerr's turn to counter in game 2.

Another interesting match is the Lakers vs Memphis, experience vs youth, LBJ vs Ja Morant. It's going to another series that we are anticipating. We are going to see if Lebron has enough gas tank against the young Grizzlies team. Because for me as the series goes, Lebron and AD's bodies might not have enough time to recover. And I will say that Memphis is very physical, so it's going to be Brooks vs James. But for sure they will throw a lot of body on Lebron in this series.

So with that, I will bet on Memphis -4.5.

Out of the 4 meeting of these two teams this season, the Knicks have won the last 3 games.  Brunson is a good addition to the team and I think they have a chance to upset the Cavaliers on their home in game 1.

Well, it is a very close game and yeah the Addition of Jalen Brunson to the team has elevated them to new heights but this is just the 1st match I will surely not be surprised if the Cleveland Cavaliers make win the next game, and looking at this 1st game for the play-offs it was a close game, and for the playoffs, some teams would likely be a new team entering the playoffs,

The Warriors are bad on the road this year. Even with Wiggins and GP2 playing, I do not think they can win against the Kings on the road in Game 1. I am taking the Kings to win the first game against the Warriors.

Good luck with your bet.

I am a Golden State Warriors fan and I am not worried about this loss because I know they have done their all looking closely it is a close game, Andrew Wiggins is still adjusting from the long rest he has been, I only wish his problem outside of the NBA will not get to him mentally because that will be a great pain for the Warriors, but I think that they will adjust in the next game and looking forward in beating the Sacramento Kings the next game,  



My picks for today's game

Philadelphia 76ers VS Brooklyn Nets SCORE 121 - 101 - WIN

Boston Celtics VS Atlanta Hawks SCORE 112 - 99 - WIN

Cleveland Cavaliers VS New York Knicks SCORE 97 - 101 - LOST

Sacramento Kings VS Golden State Warriors SCORE 126 - 123 - LOST

Wolves definitely deserved to win that game, they were much better. I would say Sixers do have a bigger chance to win, Nets were high up there because they started the season with Kyrie and Durant, now they have none of that. They are basically a tanking team that found themselves in the playoffs, it should be a sweep if you ask me.

It's still good that players would get playoff experience but the reality is that we shouldn't really see anything change there and Sixers would win that game easily, hopefully at least. Celtics should be easily beating Hawsk, Smart would defend Young good enough, and Tatum/Brown duo should be able to destroy them on both defense and offense as well. No idea about Cavs vs Knicks but Warriors could possibly beat Kings.

Sacramento Kings VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 1.91 for the Kings and 1.93 for the Warriors, right now Matthew Dellavedova, can not play for the Kings, while Andre Iguodala can not play for the Warriors, I really think they need to release Iguodala for a better player going forward, but maybe this will be his last season or Iggy could be an assistant coach for the Warriors or even a different role than playing for the Warriors, right now I am surely siding with the 100% form Warriors now that Wiggins can play,

The Warriors are bad on the road this year. Even with Wiggins and GP2 playing, I do not think they can win against the Kings on the road in Game 1. I am taking the Kings to win the first game against the Warriors.

Good luck with your bet.
Well, they really are one of the worst teams in terms of win-loss record, but on that Game 1, even though they lost, I believe that they can steal Game 2.

It's not because I'm a Warrior fan, but even though they played awful in the road all throughout the regular season, they played really well in Game 1, and they only lost by 3 points. I had the time to watch the whole game, and I think that adjustments that the Warriors will do is with regards to stopping Monk. They did stop Sabonis offensively by scoring only 12 points, but had a double-double. As for Fox, the Warriors can't stop that dude which is very fast even for Wiggins and GP2. There are times where Fox just outruns either one of them, and go straight to the basket.

I think if the Warriors need to stop Fox, they need to defend him and minimize at least his performance in the 4th quarter because that's where Fox shines. He will not be at the top in terms of points int he last 5 minutes for nothing, and some call him the Clutch because of how good he is in the final quarter. Anyway, I also bet on the Warriors and lost unfortunately. Cheesy

there’s no way I was going to bet against the Kings at home. I’ve spent too many years in Sacramento and I know that arena is going to be the hardest place the Warriors have to play in these playoffs. Everyone in that building is going to want to see the beam getting lit tonight.

The Kings played their asses off tonight for the city of Sacramento. They’ve waited a long time for this and I know how sweet it is to get one over the nearby Warriors. Awesome to see them light the beam on national tv as well. They deserved it after waiting so many years. Malik Monk hitting 14 free throws to tie the record for playoff debuts is a nice touch as well. We’ve got a series on our hands…

The Boston Celtics are roasting Atlanta Hawks alive, I mean 30 points lead at just Halftime, but then I strongly think the referees or officials are doing a very shitty job of not calling several supposed foul on Hawks and then the Celtics get to break in transition in the other to get an easy basket, I don’t get my why Celtics gets away a lot of those non-call, and I don’t think it’s had anything to do with some home court advantage, and then you see Tatum complaining Doncic-esque style on any call against them. I understand that the Celtics are a very physical team in terms of defensive approach, but that’s shouldn’t warrant a blatant series of no calls when they very obvious and some often should even have been checked for potential flagrant fouls.

This could be a big issue in the next few games and even if they get away with this within the first round, the fire will be much bigger by the time if ever the Celtics managed to get themselves a spot in the conference finals. A lot of people will be watching closely because this is not the first time this happened, one of the referees (I forgot the name) whenever the Celtics are playing at home are already in trouble, yet the league is not even looking on it.

I know the Celtics got the advantage over the Celtics and probably with the other teams competing in the playoffs too, but this should be a fair game until the end and the underdogs should be given a fair shake.


It was eyesore to witness all though heavy contact but no calls against Celtics, especially in the first quarter, some Celtics players really should have 2-3 fouls at the very least, I agree that the NBA would probably look into ahead of game 2 and going forward. The first quarter had already demoralized the Hawks players and Celtics had an easy game after building up that chemistry and momentum. However, I would want to take any away from the Celtics effort and huge plays making and because they look really scary as team, if they are all fit, week could get Celtics vs warriors for the finals, it's just too early to jump into such conclusion.


what are your on Golden state warriors vs Kings at home,  warriors are the slight underdog here but, I'm to take a ML risk, before I look forward to a Playoffs warriors display!

My pick for tonight below.

Sacramento Kings vs Golden State Warriors = Golden State Warriors Win 1,96 Odds.

Sacramento made it to the playoffs years later. I don't think they will have much of a chance against Golden State Warriors.
Because Sacramento Kings is facing a team with years of play-off experience.

Good luck with your bet.

Same here, I'll side with the Sacramento Kings for the meantime like in the first two games because aside from the fact that the Warriors are on the road that time, I'm already expecting that the Warriors struggle a bit because Wiggins will be added again on the line-up.

I think we already know what's the likelihood of the outcome if one of the Warriors core is returning, just like when Klay and Curry was injured, the Warriors will be on a hot mess.

I was hoping the Nets would get a lead at some point so I could get decent odds on a parlay today, but it looks like the Philadelphia 76ers are going to lead this game pretty much start to finish. Pretty much what I was expecting as the Nets are heavily overmatched and likely wouldn’t have been in the playoffs if they traded away their stars sooner in the year.

I take it as a one-sided game because since from the start until the game ended, the Philadelphia 76ers didn't gave the Nets some liberty to win even just for a single quarter. They just dominated the whole game and defeated the Nets leaving a 20 point game.

Cleveland Cavaliers VS New York Knicks

The stake odds for this game are 1.48 for the Cavaliers and 2.75 for the Knicks, right now Dylan Windler can not play for the Cavaliers, and Isaac Okoro is doubtful if he's able to play for the Cavaliers, while Julius Randle is doubtful if he can play for the Knicks so for this game I am pretty much convinced with the Cavaliers than with the Knicks making their way forward so my pick is the Cleveland Cavaliers,

Out of the 4 meeting of these two teams this season, the Knicks have won the last 3 games.  Brunson is a good addition to the team and I think they have a chance to upset the Cavaliers on their home in game 1.

Sacramento Kings VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 1.91 for the Kings and 1.93 for the Warriors, right now Matthew Dellavedova, can not play for the Kings, while Andre Iguodala can not play for the Warriors, I really think they need to release Iguodala for a better player going forward, but maybe this will be his last season or Iggy could be an assistant coach for the Warriors or even a different role than playing for the Warriors, right now I am surely siding with the 100% form Warriors now that Wiggins can play,

With only light betting during the week with the playin the playoffs are finally here.  Have to take a stab at all 4. 

1) taking Philly at home -8.5
2) Hawks +9.5. Trey is a different dude in the playoffs between him and Murray they should be able to keep this close.
3) THEEEEE NY Knicks moneyline.  Yep Homer bet but I'm taking it.
4) and too much money coming in on the Warriors.  I'm taking the home team -1 kings.  Think GS takes the series but this will be a tough game.  Going against the grain.

Good luck everyone and enjoy!! Go KNICKS!!!

I wasn’t sure about the Knicks and the Knicks and Cavs but there’s no way I was going to bet against the Kings at home. I’ve spent too many years in Sacramento and I know that arena is going to be the hardest place the Warriors have to play in these playoffs. Everyone in that building is going to want to see the beam getting lit tonight.

Agreed.  Aside from watching my knicks, Sacramento back when c web, Peja, Bibby, j wil were running the court that arena was lit.  Golden state hasn't exactly run well on the road and think this is a betting trap game.  Gotta think at almost a pickem kings are gonna have a chip on theor shoulder.  Gonna be a good night cap to the day.
