Lakers manage to beat the Grizzlies at home, a different Memphis when Ja is not playing not sure what happened to them, they are not playing with good chemistry unlike before when Ja is resting they are capable of winning games.

The other two games didn't materialise as both Warriors and favorites did not cover the spread, worse with the
Warriors, as they lose the game, lots of turnovers in the final quarter the rally did not succeed and OKC beat
to defend the home crowd.

Results:
Orlando Magic - Milwaukee Bucks - Milwaukee Bucks (-6.5) - Won!
Detroit Pistons - Washington Wizards - Washington Wizards (-6.5) - Loss! Wizards won but did not cover the spread.
New York Knicks - Charlotte Hornets - New York Knicks (-10.5) - Loss! Knicks winning streak was ended by the Hornets with LaMelo Ball and worse, at Madison Square Garden. Ouch! That must be tough for them.
Houston Rockets - Brooklyn Nets - Brooklyn Nets (-6.5) - Won! What a nice ball rotation for the Nets team. I wish this will continue. They are not a bad team but just having a hard time building chemistry.
Oklahoma City Thunder - Golden State Warriors - Golden State Warriors (-6.5) - Loss! They tried in the last minutes of the game but turnovers are killing the Warriors.

Most of the favorites didn't cover or lost the game. Not a good day. Congratulations to the winners.

How are your bets today? I hope all of us are taking some profits right now. Anyway, got 3/3 with my bets today. Beginner's Luck I guess, but... yeah.

Minnesota Timberwolves - Philadelphia 76ers - Philadelphia 76ers @ 1.81 - WIN
- An easy win for the Sixers on the road. Embiid lead the way with 39 points in only 28 minutes of playing while Maxey also got 27 points. Harden didn't play, but it doesn't matter because they won. Edwards lead the Wolves with 32 points, but the other starters are almost non-existing at all in terms of stats. Gobert only had 6 points and 9 rebounds. I wish KAT will return ASAP or it might affect their standings in the very tight Western Conference

Oklahoma City Thunder - Golden State Warriors - Oklahoma City Thunder @2.50  - WIN
- I knew it. I knew that the road game struggles of the Warriors will happen again that's why I put my bet on the Thunder. All 5 of the starters of the Thunder are in double figures and overall, 7 of them scored more than 10 points. SGA lead the way with 33 points while Giddey got his 7th career triple double with 17-11-17. Curry erupted for 40 points while Thompson and Kuminga scored 23 and 21 points. Green had an awesome stats on this game. 11 points, 1 rebound, 11 assists, and 1 steals. Lot's of 1's on the stat sheet for him.

Los Angeles Lakers - Memphis Grizzlies - Los Angeles Lakers @ 1.77 - WIN
- The game is really close until the mid-4th quarter. The game really was close with lots of deadlocks and lead changes until AD and the Lakers made a surge and some runs in the late 4th quarter. AD lead the way with 30 points and 22 rebounds. JJJ on the other hand got into foul trouble thus, he was sitting out most of the 4th quarter, and that's the time where AD just took that opportunity, scored and dominated the paint. Bane only scored 7 points with 3/14 shooting while Dillon "Dynasty" Brooks scored 13 points. JJJ lead the Grizzlies with 26 points.

---

Aside from that, I went double down with the teams I bet on, and made a multi-bet on them as well aside from the single bet I put. Luckily, I won.


I hope everybody got profits today, and TBH, I might take a rest because every time I'm winning with all of my bets, the next ones will surely be a loss base on my experience.

Congrats!

Cameron Johnson was my achilles heel for the several props I had tonight, I either had him to get 12+ points or PRA 20+, and the light skinned dude had just 2 fields goals from 9, both were 3s and 2/4 from the free throw line, My major concern was how he played the least minutes of all Brooklyn Nets starters despite having just one personal foul for the entirety of the just 24 minutes he gets to played and there was no information about him picking up a knock or being injured.

∆ M. Bridges 20+ points / Nets ML @1.65 ∆   won

It would be huge if the Nets could keep the sixth seed and avoid the play-in games, but i doubt they can because their remaining schedule is not the easiest. Today's game against the Rockets is the first of a five-game mini-trip. Following that, they have a difficult back-to-back-to-back with the Bucks, Wolves, and Nuggets. A winnable game against one of the league's worst teams, who are currently on a two-game win streak (haven't won three in a row so far this season).

Mikal Bridges has been fantastic for the Nets since joining them. He was instrumental in their comeback win over the Celtics last week, had a near 50-point game against Miami not long ago, and is averaging close to 30 points per game /L7. He is up against a Rockets team that ranks near the bottom in almost every major defensive category in the league. It's a good spot for him and Cam Johnson.

@danherbias07 Congratulations bro for last night.

My picks for tonight.

Orlando Magic vs Milwaukee Bucks (-2.5) = Milwaukee Bucks Win 1,84 Odds.

New York Knicks (-2.5) vs Charlotte Hornets = First Quarter Win 1,72 Odds.

Good luck guys.

Orlando Magic vs Milwaukee Bucks
The Orlando Magic (27-38) will host the visiting Milwaukee Bucks (46-18) tonight at Amway Center. At 1.79 odds against the Magic, I think that is good enough odd to take the Bucks money line assuming Giannis will play.
Bucks key injuries: Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) probable, Jrue Holiday (neck) questionable
Magic key injuries: Wendell Carter Jr (hip) questionable, Gary Harris (adductor) questionable, Jonathan Isaac (adductor) out

Dallas Mavericks vs Utah Jazz
The Dallas Mavericks (33-32) will host the visiting Utah Jazz (31-34) tonight at American Airlines Center. The Jazz lost 5 games out of their 6 games on the road but the Mavericks should be able to win this game.
Jazz key injuries: Collin Sexton (hamstring) out
Mavericks key injuries: Maxi Kleber (hamstring) questionable

Los Angeles Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies
The Los Angeles Lakers will host the visiting Memphis Grizzlies tonight at Crypto.com Arena. Anthony Davis should dominate this game in the absence of Steven Adams. The Memphis is in a 3 game skid without Ja Morant in the lineup.
Grizzlies  key injuries: Steven Adams (knee) out, Brandon Clarke (Achilles ) out, Ja Morant (not with team ) out
Lakers key injuries: Anthony Davis (foot) probable, Lebron James (foot) out, D'Angelo Russell (ankle) questionable

Good choice, we almost have the same bets my friend. I got no doubts about the Warriors as well even if they will play at the Thunders homecourt and besides, they needed a win today because they failed in their last game with the Lakers where they got an unexpected results as the Lakers were also performing well at that game.

I got the Warriors -4, Lakers -2 and Wizards -6.5

If the Lakers successfully got through with healthy the Warriors, I bet they could also find a way to defeat the starless Grizzlies as Ja Morant is now out for the rest of the season.

Yes, we have 8 games later. Quite a lot of good games to be honest but I think I will just filter some of them because some stars players of the Bucks and Knicks are probable to play in their respective games later, so I'll just pass for those teams for now just to make sure especially they got a huge handicaps.

Golden State Warriors -4 vs Oklahoma City Thunders
Memphis Grizzlies vs Los Angeles Lakers -2
Philadelphia 7ers +2 and ML vs Minnesota Timberwolves

The second one where the odds are higher, yes I put my bet during the game and when they are down double digits. I'm lucky I guess, or I just knew that the Nuggets will protect their home, and continue the winning streak.

It's the fault of Coach Nurse that he didn't pulled out Poetl where in fact, he's a poor free throw shooter, or I guess Coach Nurse didn't thought of it already because of his frustration towards the calls of Scott Foster that is kind of a bias. With regards to Jokic fouling Poetl, as we expected for an 2x MVP. There was also a time during the halftime where him and Coach Malone are talking to each other regarding different plays to the team, and that's a good sign especially if that works for the whole team.

Anyway, here are my bets for tomorrow's ballgame:

Los Angeles Lakers - Memphis Grizzlies - Los Angeles Lakers @ 1.77
- It will be a battle of Anthony Davis and Jaren Jackson Jr. on the paint, and I think nobody in the Grizzlies can stop Davis. The bad thing though is that, Davis is on a day-to-day basis as of the moment, and if he doesn't play, the Grizzlies has a chance to steal this one on the road. Nevertheless, I already put my bet on the Lakers hoping that AD will play.

Minnesota Timberwolves - Philadelphia 76ers - Philadelphia 76ers @ 1.81
- With how the Sixers played and snapped the winning streak of the Bucks on the road, I believe that they can steal one again on the road against the Timberwolves. Currently, the Wolves are on a 3 game winning streak, and all of those games are played on the road, but on the other hand, their home record is a good one as well with 20-14. Still, I'll go with the Sixers on this one. It's just unfortunate that their 2 starters Harris and Tucker are on a day-to-day basis because of the injuries that they had against the Bucks.

Oklahoma City Thunder - Golden State Warriors - Oklahoma City Thunder @2.50
- The record of the Warriors are 7-24. 3rd worst record by a defending champion. The 2 other? '98-'99 Bulls and the '56-'57 Warriors. I'm a Warriors fan, but I would be happy still if I will lose my bet on this one. I just bet on the Thunder because of the awful record of the Warriors on the road.

Good Luck to all of us bettors.

Nice. Congratulations. Even if you were late to pull some bets that were still a win. I actually thought the Nuggets will lose that game but Jokic and the crew managed some good defensive feats.
Did you see what Jokic did in that last play? He thinks so fast you could say he is really a genius. While they are up by 3, he fouled the worst free throw shooter of the Raptors, Poetl. The best part is he did it in a way that would not tick a transition foul, intentional, or away from the ball.

8 games later. Wow!
Here are my early picks.
Detroit Pistons - Washington Wizards - Washington Wizards (-6.5)
Orlando Magic - Milwaukee Bucks - Milwaukee Bucks (-6.5)
New York Knicks - Charlotte Hornets - New York Knicks (-10.5) - Continue the streak!!!
Houston Rockets - Brooklyn Nets - Brooklyn Nets (-6.5)
Oklahoma City Thunder - Golden State Warriors - Golden State Warriors (-6.5) - This team badly wants a win so I am going as far as -6.5.

Good luck everyone.

Yes, instead of enjoying the game after you placed your bet, you will always watch how the score goes and give some prediction about the likelihood of the total outcome which removes the entertainment to our side as aside from bettors, we are also a fan of the NBA games. Besides, I don't also find the odds of over/under tempting enough.

Lots of games again tomorrow, NBA prepared eight games for us to bet and enjoy.

Wizards -6.5 vs Pistons
76ers -1.5 vs Timberwolves

You probably put your bet when the Nuggets were down. That was a come-from-behind win for them. They are a smart team, which is why they won, and the Raptors were just frustrated in the dying minutes, which caused them to get distracted easily. In the last few sequences, Jokic was smart to foul Poeltl because he missed his only 2 FT, which gave the Nuggets the ball possession again.

Whoa! I was surprised I think I got the pattern of my luck but here are my picks for games today,

Cleveland Cavaliers VS Boston Celtics SCORE 118 - 114 - LOST

Surprised that Jayson Tatum did not play the sure thing I thought that he would play for this game if I have known this early I might have had a chance of getting my bet canceled but still Tatum did not play for this game, Darius Garland got a double-double of 12 assists and 17 points, Evan Mobley 17 rebounds 25 points and Donovan Mitchell has a double-double aswell of 11 rebounds and 40 points,

Detroit Pistons VS Portland Trail Blazers SCORE 104 - 110 - WIN

The Portland Trail Blazers were very aggressive and dominant the entire game that from start to finish the Trail Blazers are blazing on the lead, despite them having so many injuries, Cam Reddish got 13 points, Jerami Grant got 26 points, Damian Lillard has a triple-double of 13 rebounds 12 assists and 31 points,

Miami Heat VS Atlanta Hawks SCORE 130 - 128 - LOST

Well, I have surely expected that the Heat could also win this but I don't really trust Jimmy Butler surely it was a close game and it the Hawks were just behind with 2 points, Caleb Martin got 21 Victor Oladipo got 22 points and Jimmy Butler got 26 points,

Sacramento Kings VS New Orleans Pelicans SCORE 123 - 108 - WIN

The Pelicans got a great start but the Kings are just finding their opening to push forward, so the score for the Sacramento Kings has raised so much that it was a dominant game for them, and they also got a beautiful spread for all players, Davion Mitchell got 15 points, Domantas Sabonis has a triple-double of 11 rebounds 11 assists and 19 points, and Kevin Hueter got 25 points,

Lucky, lucky. Congratulations for you.

I only put bets on the final 2 games because of some errands, but fortunately, I won both of the games especially with the Denver-Toronto where I put my bet on the Nuggets twice again (before and during). I just waited for the lead of Raptors to go to double digits and then put my bet when they called a timeout. Good thing they won, and I guess there is a high chance that they'll win because they have the best home teams right now with 30-4. Their last loss on home is against the Thunder last January. Jokic almost got a triple double again with 17-13-9.


Congratulations again for you, and to all winners today.

^Congratulations, bro @morvillz7z. Detroit Pistons gave them a little bit of a difficult time in the last minutes but the Trail Blazers somehow managed to take control again.

My goodness. Lots of drama happened, and most of the games are close ones. Spreads were not covered.

The Cavaliers won but did not cover. The Celtics even without Tatum almost snatched the game from them with Malcolm Brogdon stepping up his game. But, Donovan Mitchell did the same although exhausted, and then there's Stevens who made a lot of effort to get crucial offensive rebounds and shots.

The 76ers won but did not cover too. The Pacers somehow ended the game in a pretty close fight even without Myles Turner after being fouled out early. (This guy broke my props.)

Trail Blazers covered, Thank God.

Miami Heat didn't cover my -3.5 too. They only won by 2 points against the Atlanta Hawks. It could have been 6 points but Tyler Herro made some mistakes.
1/4 for my early single bets. But thankfully I put all the favorites in a parlay and won it. I got lucky.

Congratulations to all the winners.

∆ D. Lillard 5+ assists / Blazers ML @1.62 ∆   won

Blazers had some issues but came away with a much-needed win against Orlando. Today's game in Detroit is also a must-win, at 30-34, they will need to win pretty much every game from now on to make the play-in. With five-six players missing tonight's game and a seven-game losing streak, Pistons have little to play for other than securing one of the league's three worst records.

Lillard's point total has been absurdly high since his 71-point game, which is why i'm taking the assists instead. He's had 5+ assists in all but one game since the all-star break, and i could see him get some easy dishes to his teammates. Pistons give the third most assists to opposing point guards on the season.

My picks for tonight,

Denver Nuggets (-5.5) vs Toronto Raptors = Denver Nuggets Win 1,83 Odds.

Detroit Pistons vs Portland Trail Blazers (-6.5) = Portland Trail Blazers Win 2,05 Odds.

Good luck guys.

I'll just put one bet tonight, I'm in a losing streak so I will take it easy.

Nuggets vs Raptors - Denver -5.5 @1.87. Top team in the West and they are going to play at their home court and coming from a rest. And they are also in a sort of winning streak, just 3 but probably extend it against Toronto. Raptors are a good team, but the problem with them is that they are inconsistent and barely a .500 team.

Good win by the underdog Knicks, close game between the Mavs and the Suns, it was a amazing game, Luka against Booker, hehehe, two very competitive players, but as Luka says, the trash talking should start with the game was 0-0, not when the Suns had a 3 point lead and ready to get that win already.

Denver Nuggets vs Toronto Raptors
The Denver Nuggets (45-19) will host the visiting Toronto Raptors (32-33) tonight at Ball Arena. The Raptors has won the last 3 head-to-head meetings with the Nuggets.
Nuggets key injuries: Thomas Bryant (ankle) probable

Sacramento Kings vs New Orleans Pelicans
The Sacramento Kings (37-26) will host the New Orleans Pelicans (31-33) tonight at Golden 1 Center. The Kings have won 8 of their last 11 game while the Pelicans has lost 10 of their last 12 road games.
Pelicans key injuries: Jose Alvarado (shin) out, Larry Nance (ankle) out, Josh Richardson (personal) out, Jonas Valenciunas (calf) questionable, Zion Williamson (hamstring) out
Kings key injuries: De'Aaron Fox (hamstring) questionable
