Milwaukee Bucks vs Miami Heat
The Miami Heat (32-27) will visit the Milwaukee Bucks (41-17) tonight at Fiserv Forum. This is their last match for the regular season with Miami winning 2 out of 3 meetings.
Heat key injuries: Tyler Herro (knee) probable, Kyle Lowry (knee) out
Bucks key injuries: Giannis Antetokoumpo (wrist) doubtful, Pat Connaughton (calf) doubtful

Chicago Bulls vs Brooklyn Nets
The Brooklyn Nets (34-24) are going to face the Chicago Bulls (26-33) tonight at United Center. The Nets are coming from a win against the Miami Heat 116-105 last Wednesday. While the Bulls lost to the Bucks last Thursday 112-100.
Nets key injuries: Ben Simmons (knee) questionable
Bulls key injuries: Lonzo Ball (knee) out, Goran Dragic (knee) questionable, Javonte Green (knee) out

Those are both some risky picks. I wouldn't doubt if Giannis plays tonight after the All-Star break to heal. I did consider making the same bet though because with Kevin Love on the team I'm sure they want to go out and get a win in his debut. Giannis is just too big of a question mark. If he plays, I don't think the Bucks lose.

That Nets pick seems risky too. Without Durant and Kyrie, it's hard to tell how good they'll be. Sure, they're playing great but who knows how long that will last.

I do think the Warriors get an easy win tonight and I put a little bet on the Suns also, but without Durant and missing the guys they traded for him, it might be a different game than I'd like to see.

Giannis is definitely out for the Bucks tonight, as per nbcsportsedge.com, but Milwaukee Bucks still aren't not going to be an easy game for the Miami Heat, Khris Middleton would be available and a couple of players like Bobby Portis is also reportedly back into the squad, while Jay Crowder could also make his debut today so the players could also have an important role to play.

I like the Brooklyn Nets ML at Chicago Bulls over that of Miami Heat facing the Bucks.

The Warriors to get an easy win is just another bet I'll be tailing..

GL guys!

Unfortunately, Murray did play in this game, ouch, I thought that he will be out, scored 16 points and that is enough for the Nuggets to win.
As for the Magic vs Pistons, it's very close game, Magic just won by 2 points.
So it's a bad day, 0 wins, hehehe.

Well, sometimes the "unlikely happens"
I was also convinced, Murray would not play, but he played anyway and helped the Nuggets win the game. (in my opinion the Cavaliers played so good, it was a competitive game, but Denver won.

Me too, this was another bet/pick that I lost lol

Last night was 2-1-1 pushed the Utah game. Crazy finish on that one in ot.

Tonight I got 4 more games:

Knicks -2 on the road at the Wizards. Only thing that scares me off this one is Beal I think he is playing.

Timberwolves -6.5 at home. Think they make a hard push this last portion of the season.

Bucks -1. This should be a tight game, gimme the home team here.

And same thing for my fourth. Atlanta at home even odds. This shoukd be tight gimme the home team here too.

Good luck tonight everyone!

GSW vs LA Lakers -5.5
Portland vs Sacramento -5

I'll go with the underdogs, as both Portland and the Warriors are decent teams. Just because they will be playing on the road, it doesn't mean they'll lose. These teams know how to win, so I think they are undervalued in this matchup.

It's the same in this game; the underdog lost and it wasn't even a close game. I think many of us here were attracted to the underdogs since these games might determine who qualifies for the playoffs.

I somehow expected it a bit that the Warriors will get defeated on their game yesterday against the Lakers because they got a huge handicap as Curry and Wiggins wasn't there on the hardwood helping the team to keep afloat. It was a long scoring game for the Warriors and it's different on the Lakers side as they are sharing the ball well without getting AD and LeBron so hyped to lift the whole team, but I guess we will have a different outcome if the Chef was there.

Same as the Kings, we can't really argue their existence on the league now because they managed to get the 3rd seed in the West while the Blazers was having a hard time in the 12th seed. Also, the Blazers lack consistency.

Later today, the Kings will face the Clippers and Westbrook will make his debut at home. This game is anticipated by many, hopefully it will be a different game.

They get even better with Murray, but this team is already good even without him, so it's hard to beat them. However, we are talking about the Cavaliers, who have an impressive home record, so they were the right pick. It's just unfortunate that they lost the game.

It was a good game but it was somehow evident enough for me why Nuggets are dominating the league right now behind the Celtics, that is because their ball is well shared as the level of trust to their teammates is already exceptional. Take note that this is the Nuggets without Gordon and Murray but they even dominated the Cleveland on their own home which got a good record while playing at home, I guess that wasn't the case today. Anyway, the game ended in-favor the Nuggets and they seem not too tired at all especially Jokic.

Nice catch by TNT there having good coverage of the Philadelphia 76ers versus Memphis Grizzlies game. That was one heck of a game with the 76ers down by double digits and trying to get back, the last two minutes got so intense when it turned into a close game, and surprised the Grizzlies by stepping up on both ends of the floor. Congrats to the bettors for the 76ers during the live game.

San Antonio vs Dallas -13.5

I haven't seen Dallas win a game yet with Kyrie and Luka playing together, so I might as well still bet against them. I'm taking the other side and placing a bigger bet compared to my bet on the moneyline.

It turned out the bookies are correct in their prediction as the game ended in a blowout.
Doncic had 28 points, Kyrie 23, and Hardaway 22 playing just below 30 minutes. This is a good start for them after the All-Star break, I bet the long rest game them time to fill some chemistry.

It would have been a bad idea if you had bet against Dallas, because not only did they finally win, but they also covered the spread.

Yes, it was a mistake, but that's gambling. You cannot win all the time or be guaranteed a win. I thought the struggle would continue, but I was wrong, LOL. So maybe next time I'll bet on this team and be confident that they will cover the spread and win.

Yes, I got tempted with this one too, but like I said, you can't guarantee a win. So, I'll just consider this like a normal day; you win some and you lose some. But this will be temporary because tomorrow I'll be bouncing back.

Tomorrow, I will be backing the Warriors to win by more than 10 points. They are back at home, so I think they will win.

Magic vs Pistons, - I'm taking the Magic -6.5 @1.86
Cavs vs Nuggets - I think Murray and Aaron Gordon is out in this game that's why the Cavs are the favorite -2.5 @ 1.90

I also took the parlay, @3.53.

Same for me...
I have no doubt that the Cavaliers have a great chance of winning this game, without Aaron Gordon and Murray, the Nuggets become a fragile team!

By the way, let's see if in this round I can make good picks!

Unfortunately, Murray did play in this game, ouch, I thought that he will be out, scored 16 points and that is enough for the Nuggets to win.

As for the Magic vs Pistons, it's very close game, Magic just won by 2 points.

So it's a bad day, 0 wins, hehehe.

It's 0/2 for you tonight, sorry mate, some days are just like that, Orlando Magic really didn't take complete charge of the game, even though they did at some point led by as many as 13 point during the 3rd quarter, that was literally the only time they had at least 7 or more points lead, it's pretty much a close game from the very start to finsih.

Yes, he is very instrumental and when I saw that he is going to play, I said I arleady lost my bet already.

Made a couple bucks on the Celtics/Mavs/Lakers wins tonight. I think going forward the Lakers are going to be a good bet this season. Anthony Davis and LeBron have both said how important making the playoffs is to them. LeBron had an off night tonight though. 13 points on 25% shooting. Probably one of his worst games of the season.

And I just hope that D'Lo will be back soon because he suffered a right ankle sprain on that game against the Warriors.

Both AD and Lebron had a "OK" night, but the good thing is that they have pieces who can step up anytime if needed and they've shown it tonight. Beasly with 25, Mo Bamba with 12 & 13, Hachimura with 14. These newly acquired Lakers are stepping up, and maybe lets give credits to Rob Pelinka for making some good trades after making some bad ones in the past. Still, the Lakers are in the 13th seed, but only 4 games away from the 5th seed. Lebron and AD must be healthy or in short, all of the players must be healthy to have a chance. A 3-game losing streak might be a huge to their playoff run.

On the other hand, the Warriors are now below .500 with that loss, and they are playing very well on their home (in fact one of the best records on home with 22-7), but the are playing very awful on the road (7-23 record). Their defense again is the main problem as to why they are losing. Can't wait for GPII and Curry to come back soon.

Jamal Murray actually suited up for the Denver Nuggets and we could say he's one of the reasons you lost the second bet, because he was very instrumental for Nuggets getting the win tonight, although Donovan Mitchel also wasn't at his usual best for the Cavaliers too, he played way worse and nothing compared to the Donovan Mitchel we saw at the All Star Games night.

I haven't seen Dallas win a game yet with Kyrie and Luka playing together, so I might as well still bet against them. I'm taking the other side and placing a bigger bet compared to my bet on the moneyline.

Irving's agent signed him up with Dallas just to get him out of all issues he had within the Brooklyn organization and among the fans.
Every sports show post trade, all broadcasters were questioning what if any reasonable explanation could be seen with this trade.
But to many including myself are interested in the betting opportunity this presents itself if this experiment fails.
I will be making a ML bet on the Spurs because I think the bookies expect way too much of a Kyrie and Luka cohesion so late into the season.

Even though I might not be backing the San Antonio Spurs on ML, I also believe Kyrie and Doncic playing together is absurd reason to undermine the Spurs that much, they've also lost a number of key players before the trade deadline themselves, but currently -14.5 for the Spurs outright is just purely absurd imo too, so that's a bet I'm definitely not going to say no to as well.

Hopefully the tail end of the betting year will be better than the first half let's kick it up with 4 games today:

Pelicans + 6 on the road in Toronto.
Lakers -6 home against gs. With Wiggins and steph out I like Lakers chance here
Jazz -1 at home against okc. Basically a pick em and like the home squad here
Magic -7 at home against Detroit. Orlando is have a sneaky decent year. Thinks they feast on Detroit.

Good luck everyone!

Tailing you with the Pelicans but on ML @ 2.91 on the road vs Toronto Raptors and also Lakers -4.5 vs GS Warriors. Tough pick for the Lakers because even if the Warriors got a handicap, they can still find a way how to deal with their situation as they still got numerous offensive players left but somehow, I believe in the Lakers in this game. And also, I'll add the Orlando Magic -6.5 vs Detroit Pistons.

NOP ML is quite tempting mate and to be honest, I can't just reject that kind of odds considering that they are much tougher this time against the Raptors even if they will be flying in Toronto. But for the Lakers vs GSW, I might sit on that for now or maybe I will bet on it live if I can catch it up later. We can't just really disregard the power of the Warriors even if they doesn't have Curry and Wiggins.
