Yeah, they have already cost us a lot of money, expecting that one day they'll be back to being the old Warriors who can dominate on the road. I don't understand the line movement in this particular game. It seemed like it was signaling that the Warriors would win, but what happened was a complete massacre for the team. Good thing I was able to bet live and took the Jazz to win with 3.40 odds. It made me profitable in the end.

I think it's high time we all move past this idea of the Golden State warriors getting a win on the road, and it doesn't matter if they are playing Boston Celtics or Detroit Piston, or even as mediocre as a team from the G-League, these clowns just can't get a win on the road, I believed playing the Atlanta Hawks or a Ja Morant-less Memphis Grizzlies' would have been an easy way to dismiss that narrative, but here we are again, the fumbled it!

I'm probably done with them until the post season, I mean that's even if they manage to secure their spot for it.

I think you can watch on Stake.com because they are livestreaming NBA games there. I'm always watching there whenever I have time, and so far I'm comfortable watching on their website. Maybe the fact that it's a small window only is a problem, but you can enlarge it still.

Your Parlay is already lost because the Warriors lost on the road "AGAIN" against the Nuggets. This is their 3rd straight road loss on their 5 consecutive road games, and 11th straight road loss. Curry just held to just 16 points after having a high scoring consecutive games. Kuminga on the other hand is their highest scorer with 24 points off the bench. This kid is a good pick by the Warriors because he's a great defender, and their opponent doesn't respect his ability to shoot threes. Overall, they still lost to the Grizzlies. I wonder what Dillon "Dynasty" Brooks will say again against Draymond Green.

I hope you didn't tail.  
It's frustrating to see both favorites losing their games just like that. I mean, I understand all teams now are trying to win every game they could but both Nuggets and Clippers are two of the top teams in the league and yet we didn't hit our bet today.

So back to chasing losses.
I caught the 76ers bet earlier today at -3.5 and they are now winning.
Also took another bet for the Sacramento Kings -2.5. Somehow they are on a good lead but the Washington Wizards won't go away yet.
Then Over 233.5 for the same game. I hope I can just split the wins.

Grizzlies or Warriors? Grizzlies on a 7 point lead, might be a good chance to bet for the Warriors with a handicap included or in moneyline with higher profits.

Here is my late pick for today's game,

Chicago Bulls VS Miami Heat

The stake odds for this game are 2.10 for the Bulls and 1.75 for the Heat, right now Javonte Green can not play for the Bulls, while Kyle Lowry and Cody Zeller can not play for the Heat, this game I think the Heat will have smooth sailing with that kind of players available for them while this could also be a very close game my pick is the Miami Heat,

Memphis Grizzlies VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 1.90 for the Grizzlies and 1.85 for the Warriors, Vince Williams Jr., and Steven Adams, can not play for the Grizzlies Ja Morant is still suspended, while Ty Jerome, Andre Iguodala, Andrew Wiggins, and Gary Payton II can not play for the Warriors, for this game I really don't know if the Grizzlies could step up for a win because the Warriors is having a crazy loss, but I think the Warriors will manage to win this because they got bad blood Dillon "Dynasty" Brooks because of his trash talking I think my pick is the Golden State Warriors,

Washington Wizards VS Sacramento Kings

The stake odds for this game are 2.65 for the Wizards and 1.50 for the Kings, Right now Kristaps Porzingis, can not play for the Wizards while Trey Lyles and Kevin Huerter can not play for the Kings, for this game I am picking the Sacramento Kings because I think they are doing great so far so my pick is the Sacramento Kings,

If I can chime in on why @jakelyson might have chosen the Warriors,

a, Warriors are desperate so regardless of whether its in the road or home their back is against the wall so they need to win
b, This two has some rivalry and the Warriors lost against them the last time, maybe it could be payback.

The Sixers vs Indiana game just finished the first half with Sixers leading 10, but I will go on the +8.5 for Indiana at 2.10.

Any special reason why you pick GSW over Grizzlies at home? I know Morant is out, but they still have a lot of good defense for the Grizzlies. 1.90 is really an inviting odds, but personally, I would pick the spread for GSW rather than ML. But yeah, an interesting pick given that they're really terrible on the road. Just pray that Steph and the gang would perform their magics on the court to give GSW a comfortable lead before the final minutes of the game, which the Grizzlies have excellent defese and ball rotations on.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors (36-35) will visit the Memphis Grizzlies (42-27) tonight at FedExForum. The Warriors are bad at road with 7-28 record while the Grizzlies are 28-5 at home.
Warriors key injuries: Andre Iguodala (wrist) out, Gary Payton II (thigh) out, Ryan Rollins (foot) out, Andrew Wiggins (personal) out
Grizzlies key injuries: Steven Adams (knee) out, Brandon Clarke (Achilles) out, Ja Morant (personal) out

Washington Wizards vs Sacramento Kings
The Sacramento Kings (42-27) will visit the Washington Wizards (32-38) tonight at Capitol One Arena. Though the Sacramento Kings are the second seed in the West, the Wizzards have good defense specially at home.
Kings key injuries: Kevin Huerter (knee) questionable, Trey Lyles (shoulder) questionable


Utah Jazz vs Boston Celtics
The Boston Celtics (49-22) will visit the Utah Jazz (33-36) tonight at Vivint Arena. The Jazz has lost 5 of their last 7 games and the Boston should win this game.
Jazz key injuries: Jordan Clarkson (hand) questionable, Collin Sexton (hamstring) out

The same for me... I believe this Nuggets game could be something sensible
I confess I also thought that way.
In this game, I didn't bet, but I was convinced that the Nugges could stand out and beat the Knicks, but to my surprise it didn't happen!

Changing the subject of my post, we will have an interesting game to bet, Kings x Wizards
Guys, what do you think about it? Will the Kings be able to easily beat the Wizards?

Almost but now quite for my Warriors bet and parlay. I watch it specially in the 4th and I really think that their chances to win at very high. Atlanta is missing their shots and free throws too.

But the problem is that the Warriors seem to be tired of playing defense and catching up with the Hawks. They trim it to 2 or 3 points, but they failed to make the go ahead basket as they missed their favorite shot, the three point that could really turn the tide in their favor. Steph Curry is really pissed off by now on how the teams are turning in the last games on the regular season.

I'm looking at the Sacramento Kings line vs the Wizards. It seems though that the handicap is not yet listed on Stake for unknown reasons.

Edit: -4.5 for the Kings @1.89

No televised games for me to watch today but there are a couple matchups that might make for intriguing bets. I’m not able to place any bets today unfortunately but if I was I think I’d have to put down a parlay bet with the Kings, Warriors, and Celtics all beating their opponents. Nothing mind blowing but those seem like safe enough bets to combine.

I'll try to predict the matches tomorrow, I'll do a parlay bet today. Magic vs Clippers; I'll choose Clippers over Magic because recently they have good run and they really upper hand in this match. The odds is just 1.32 so it is a safe bet for me. For my next bet between a matchup of 76ers and Indiana Pacers. Pacers is the underdog what I want a safe bet so I'll 76ers with 1.36 odds. Harden and Embid have good offensive rating recently and I think they have a current winning streak. My 3rd parlay bet will be the matchup between boston and utah jazz, Jazz is not doing good in these past games so I'll pick boston for a safe bet again. And for my last bet is the hot matchup between GSW and Grizzlies. We know that there is a current beef in this 2 teams so I really looking forward to this match. I'll bet in Grizzlies for tomorrow with 1.79 odds and they are the favorite ones between the matchup. My total odds are 5.13x and I'll bet $20. If I win then I can get $102.3. 

Looks like I'll be tailing you with these bets you got mate. Nuggets looks interesting but I just have a slight doubt because they are just a negative two even if they are all healthy and will be playing the game tomorrow while for the Knicks, Brunson status was already ruled out because of a foot injury. While for the Clippers, they are still decent even without Kawhi Leonard in this game, PG13 and Brody got this.

Yes, the Dallas Mavericks deserved that one for sure because they managed to give the Lakers a huge struggle since the game started and it was a close end, fortunately Maxi Kleber managed to get that buzzer beater shot. In my end, I wagered on the Lakers side but I was already disappointed at them in the second half that is why I already expected a bad outcome and well, even if the Lakers won the game, the handicap won't be covered as it was just a 1 point shy.

Here's my advance bets for the games tomorrow:

Denver Nuggets -2 @ New York Knicks
Orlando Magic @ Los Angeles Clippers -6.5
Philadelphia 76ers -6 @ Indiana Pacers

Maxi Kleber. Thank you.
It's a win for the Dallas Mavericks thanks to his buzzer-beater. Kyrie Irving being unselfish is somehow fruitful. He should start doing it more than taking all the blame himself whenever he misses the last shot.

How about the game in Chicago? That was one heck of a fight that ended in double overtime. DeMar DeRozan making his season high with 49 points.

8 games again tomorrow.
We have 2 super early games.
New York Knicks - Denver Nuggets - Denver Nuggets (-1.5) 1 AM GMT+8. I am trusting the Nuggets to win one more time here.

Los Angeles Clippers - Orlando Magic - Los Angeles Clippers (-4.5) Kawhi Leonard and Powell are out but I still believe they can win this game without them. Let's see how Westbrook will try to manage the team paired with PG13. It's not new and chemistry will be there but I am expecting lesser mistakes. 3 AM GMT +8.

Kyrie is just fond of making controversial statements, and this is the latest one. However, many basketball fans will agree with this since the NBA has been rumored to be rigged even before. Anyway, let's go back to the games and discuss tomorrow's games.

We have the Warriors playing on the road again, in a back-to-back game against the Memphis Grizzlies. What do you think will happen? I guess the Warriors will lose again.

And then again, that rumors will continue as it is until someone who's really have that power/voice to be heard, we can all say our
opinions about that issue but there's nothing we can do.

Kyrie if he will direct this statement with proofs that there is something it can break out something big.

But without anything, then that statement is an open for all the opinions and speculations.

Here are the result of my picks

Atlanta Hawks VS Golden State Warriors SCORE 127 - 119 - LOST

Right now the Strength in numbers wasn't really seen with the Warriors but with the Hawks, it was surely admissible with the Hawks spread in their points and we can see that the Warriors don't have the spread needed to win this game, Onyeka Okongwu got 19 points, John Collins got 22 points and Trae Young has a double-double of 12 assists and 25 points,

Cleveland Cavaliers VS Washington Wizards SCORE 117 - 94 - WIN

The Spread was really evident for the Cavaliers, and from start, to finish you can see the lead was for the Cleveland Cavaliers both Evan Mobley and Donovan Mitchell got 20 points and Darius Garland did an amazing 24 points winning the game,

Chicago Bulls VS Minnesota Timberwolves SCORE 139 - 131 - WIN

I have never seen the Timberwolves like this they got a great start or the Bulls weren't really heating up in the 1st quarter but in the remaining 2nd half they are truly firing up, which lead the game to a double OT, the Timberwolves were really close in winning but still, the Bulls have managed to snatch the win from them, Nikola Vucevic has a double-double of 11 rebounds and 21 points Zach LeVine got 39 points and Demar DeRozan has a double-double of 14 rebounds and 49 points winning the game, 

Portland Trail Blazers VS Boston Celtics SCORE 112 - 126 - WIN

As predicted I surely knew that the Celtics will dominate this game even though they got a ton of injuries if the tandem of Tatum and Brown are around they are surely at their high-peak performance, Marcus Smart got 15 points Jaylen Brown  got 27 points, and Jayson Tatum has a double-double performance of 12 rebounds and 34 points,

 

That was a huge heartbreak for Lakers fans. It was already a winnable game for them, but in the last seconds, they focused too much on Kyrie Irving, leaving Maxi Kleber open. Additionally, the foul on Kleber at the 3-point line, which led to him making all 3 free throws, allowed Dallas to close the gap. I can't say anything, the Lakers did come back, but in the end, it resulted in disappointment.

It's just different a day on the road for the Golden State Warriors, but it's the same old story Warriors with yet another another, this it's against the Atlanta Hawks, a game that warriors had a 12 point lead very soon into the game, I just expected them to settle into the game and execute a game plan rather than settle for trading buckets, I don't want to believe it was the Draymond Green absence that was vital reason why they lost the game, I know how important Green is to the squad, but without him they should have done a better job than allowing their opponent afford more than 30 points in each of the first 3 quarters, and 104 points in total by the end of the quarter, that's for a team that's emphasizing on wanting to do a better job defensively.


Did anyone else watch the Dallas Mavericks vs Lakers, with Kyrie Irving being phenomenal on his return after missing a couple of games, but it was Max Klebber with the buzzer-beating 3 pointer dagger to snatch the the win from Lakers, and extra kudo to Kyrie once again for being able to have complete awareness of his team being open and didn't settle to go for a midrange shot that probably wouldn't have been looking at how he was marked for the final ~3 seconds.
