Just look at how distribute the offense of the Magic are. 6 players in double-digits. I believe that when this is the kind of offense a team has, they're very hard to stop because you don't know who you will be focusing with. Quite unfortunate that they lost to the Heat on their home, but it's a close one and I thought that they will win against them again. Anyway, I'll try to bet again on the Magic depending on their opponent/s.
Magic is a good team this season, so I will not regret backing them every time they'll play.

Well, they lose against the Heat, but it was a close game, they were actually leading, they just have some mistakes that they need to learn to be a matured team. It's a young team but they are competing at a highest level. Anyhow, congratulations to the backers of the heat, they won and cover.
I confess, Magic is being a team that I'm "looking at it with different eyes" it seems that game after game it is improving...

My question is, will the Magic make it to the playoffs this NBA season? Or could this be something difficult to happen?
No they will not this season. Give this team at least 2 years to develop. Those who will step up and become an all-star are the ones that will carry the team and the ones who has little to no improvement in the span of 2 years will be traded.

The Magic is a young team and they are showing potential already. Defeating those top teams isn't an easy thing to do especially when you are at the bottom spot. I mean defeating 1 or 2 can be done by these bottom teams, but to defeat the Celtics twice, Sixers and Nuggets? They are showing that they can do it, and they only need time to develop. Offense is distributed. It's hard to stop it, and it's good thing that Fultz is starting to be a better player already after many thought that he was the #1 draft pick, but a bust.

The team might go and play as far as the Play-in tournament but I think that will be their limit because even if they can manage to bring the team towards the playoffs, I highly believe that will be eliminated as early as 1st round. Besides, this is not their time yet, I mean, just look at the Boston Celtics, they surely haven't got an easy journey as what they got right now. Just like the other teams, they started at the bottom, developing their strengths and cores before they can able to compete with the heavy teams in the league.

And then, they also got the #1 pick this season, Paolo Banchero, the kid is already playing impressively. He just got to have enough exposures, so that he can adjust more and help Fultz from lifting the team.

@YuginKadoya, so you are only taking the moneyline of a team you choose? Well, if that's the case, congratulations, both teams have an easy win, although Raptors only won by 1 point, but the points of Pistons was made in the garbage time, Raptors had already secured the win before the game is over.

Both were Moneyline bets but with the Toronto Raptors VS Detroit Pistons and there is no other games to choose from because we only have two games yesterday, and if there are many games to choose from I will surely choose the profitable ones, because of the huge odds I have added another bet that is players' props and I have bet for Fred VanVleet making over 30 points and it was another hit, and surely it was a close game but still it was worth the risk if all your bet wins,



Now here are my picks for today's game

Indiana Pacers VS Utah Jazz

The stake odds for this game are 1.96 for the Pacers and 1.89 for the Jazz, Myles Turner and Tyrese Haliburton are questionable if they can play for the Pacers while Russell WestBrick, and Micah Potter can not play for the Utah Jazz, Whoa Russell WestBrick can not play and it was not injury related? do you guys know the reason? well the Utah Jazz just need to push themselves and they surely need the motivation to win this, I still don't know what could be possible contribution WestBrick could give to Jazz, but I am going with the Utah Jazz as my pick for this game

Miami Heat VS Denver Nuggets

The stake odds for this game are 2.02 for the Heat and 1.84 for the Nuggets, Right now Victor Oladipo, Kyle Lowry, Duncan Robinson, Nikola Jovic, and Omer Yurtseven, can not play, and Haywood Highsmith, Tyler Herro, Bam Adebayo, Max Strus, and Gabe Vincent is questionable if they can play for the Heat, while Collin Gillespie, and Zeke Nnaji, can not play Aaron Gordon and Jamal Murray are questionable if they can play for the Nuggets, because of the many injuries of the Heat ad mostly well-known main players for the team while Nuggets Nikola Jokic is on play with a triple-double last game, no doubt my pick is the Denver Nuggets,

Chicago Bulls VS Orlando Magic

The stake odds for this game are 1.52 for the Bulls and 2.60 for the Nuggets, right now Javonte Green, and Lonzo Ball, and not play and Alex Caruso is questionable if he can play for the Bulls, while R.J. Hampton Not Injury Related can not play for the Magic, for me even though they have injuries compared to the Magic the Bulls is in the leading start in this game, so my pick is the Chicago Bulls,

Golden State Warriors VS Washington Wizards

The stake odds for this game are 1.64 for the Warriors and 2.32 for the Wizards, right now Andre Iguodala, Gary Payton II, and Stephen Curry can not play for the Warriors while Kyle Kuzma is questionable if he can play for the Wizards, comparing these two teams the Warriors now badly needed the wins, and for the 2nd time they are playing at home if they lose this again they will lose this championship this season, so my pick is the Golden State Warriors,

Tatum now becomes one of the elite who knows defense well even when 2 or 3 are teaming against him. And he is shooting often already. Not giving all the credit to him but there's DWhite and all the rest even those with injuries.

If there were few turnovers, the score gap would be much wider. Hoping to see him do well against Bucks too. I'd be keeping my bet on them  Grin

@danherbias07 - I have singles too, that's why I still managed to get 1 win, hehehe.

We have a lot of games so it's time to get some revenge win.  Grin
11 games to be exact! Let's go!!!

Cleveland Cavaliers - San Antonio Spurs - Cleveland Cavaliers (-12.5) Super clean roster without any injury report for the Cavaliers. I think that's the reason for the high spreads. They will win this perfectly and it might go as far as a blowout game.

Charlotte Hornets - Atlanta Hawks - Atlanta Hawks (-3.5) I wish this is not a mistake. Bogdanovic is questionable and Trae Young is probable status.
But the Hornets lost 8 of their last 10 games and even at home, they have a bad record of 7/18.

New York Knicks - Brooklyn Nets - Brooklyn Nets ML They are underrated and I like it, I want to see this newly created roster be one of the most competitive in the East. They performed well against the 76ers last time but just got bad at closing the game.

Miami Heat - Denver Nuggets - Denver Nuggets ML Well, these guys already proved they can still win games even without Murray. It will be a lot of work for the Joker to get this win but I believe there will be players who will step up their game. Bam Adebayo is probable to play.

Good luck everyone.

Here are the results of my picks for today's game,

Boston Celtics VS Memphis Grizzlies SCORE 119 - 109 - WIN

Pretty much just like I have predicted the Celtics but not with Jayson Tatum with Derrick White's lead they got a great spread the Grizzlies may have a decent playing performance of Ja Morant but they are losing with the Spread of the Celtics, for me, the Boston Celtics are the real problem for the Golden State Warriors if they could make it on the championship finals, Both Al Horford and Jayson Tatum got 16 points Sam Hauser got 20 points, Derrick White had a double-double of 10 Assists and 23 points, winning against the Dynasty Memphis Grizzlies,

Toronto Raptors VS Detroit Pistons SCORE 119 - 118 - WIN

A close game indeed I really thought that the Detroit Piston will win this because of their 5 players that let the spread there but eventually, the Raptors are not behind and could eventually take the lead, so Scottie Barnes got 20 points, Pascal Siakam got 28 points, and Fred VanVleet got 35 points, winning the game against the Detroit Pistons,

Yeah, Raptors almost lead the whole game with double digit lead but they allowed the Pistons to come from behind and almost took the game from them.

That's very disappointing as I also thought they'll cover the spread easily, but it turns out their lack of defense almost gave the Pistons a chance to come back. Bogdanovic led the Pistons with his 33 points, his shooting percentage is quite high in this game, and the major reason why Pistons were able to make it a close game.

I forgot to post my bet here, but I did in our local board.

Celtics vs Memphis - I'll go with the Celtics at -4.5 @2.01. Game is too early in my timezone, and this is already a win for Boston. 119-109
Raptors vs Pistons - Raptors, -9.5 @1.81.

And then I parlay this two for a 3.64 odds.

Too bad Detroit was able to make a run late in the game to make it a 4-point game. And the 3 points at the buzzer create the final score of 119-118 in favor of Toronto. It killed your parlay and lost your single bet. You won the Celtics bet though.

My bets are moneyline, so I won my parlay, but it has smaller odds.

We have more games tomorrow, 13 to be exact.

Yeah, Raptors almost lead the whole game with double digit lead but they allowed the Pistons to come from behind and almost took the game from them.

Congrats in your win smaller odds but for me I took the big risk and it didn't pay off, so just 1/3 for me.

I asked this question above because I started to watch Magic's games, and if they can be a good team to bet on and if in fact they can have an improvement in the future.

Hmm, looking at,  from that perspective you're right..
I also realized that Magic game after game has remained an interesting (to bet on) and also a promising team.
What you said about the Magic, I believe that can also apply with Boston today, Smart, Tatum and Brown, they were diamonds that were polished when they were young, and now the Celtics are getting the result of that.


They don't give up easily, so even if they will lose, there's a high chance that they will cover the spread since they are the underdog in the majority of their games due to their lower standing. I'm impressed with this time despite not being in the playoffs ranking yet, they are just composed of young players but they played with great chemistry already, so it's okay to risk our money on this team.

Yeah, the Raptors had the 11-point lead in the 4th quarter but the Pistons keeps on pushing harder in the last minutes of the game and gained a close fight. I really thought I will win that bet as I stopped watching at that time.  Cheesy
1/2 for me, long rest as we have no late games. Tomorrow though, we have 11 games on the line. Another good way for parlay lovers to use their combination for a better profit.
Congratulations on your parlay @jakelyson.
Boston Celtics did great today, with Derrick White having a monster game with 23 points and 10 assists. This is two consecutive double-doubles for him as he did it too against the Hornets.

February 12, 2023, 03:16:23 PM
The bet with the 76ers hit in the end but then I guess it was quite a game to watch, I'd say the Brooklyn are now very underrated by we bettors, that young team are so full of energy and seem better from having KD and Kyrie on the floor, but then perhaps the lack the ability to close out games, but it would have been a very well worthy win if they had won the game.

Not so much for tonight just 2 games and we're all up for the Super Bowl. Memphis Grizzlies vs Boston Celtics should be an interesting game to see before the Super Bowl.

76ers are lucky that the last shot did not count, this game could have gone to OT and we never know what will happen from there.

Thomas is now back to his usual average, but the good thing about the Nets is they have plenty of scorers, this game it was Bridges who led the team with 23 points. I think they will be underdog in most of their games, so if they'll continue to cover the spread, then that should make the bettors profitable.

I guess they still won't be making any difference even if the Nets managed to force the game into OT as it's the Sixers who got more experience and exposure, and that means that the Sixers will prevail once the game has gone through OT. Just like the Heat vs Magic game, and just like the Nets, they led the game as it seems that they already got things in total control but a much-experienced team will chase them down and break their spirits. Anyway, it was a good game.

Right now, the Celtics vs Grizzlies just got through the halftime and I'll be tapping with the Celtics -4.5 @ 1.91 while the line is still open.

Later on, we might see Drake again racking up and showing his humungous bets to the whole gambling industry.

I trusted them as well even though they are the underdog in their match against the Heat. It broke my two-leg parlay but it was a close and good game. I am not regretting placing my bets on them.

Only 2 games later. And they are too early Cry
Although, one of them looks to be entertaining.

Yeah, the two games are too early but I am watching CS right now and that should end right before the game between Boston and Memphis starts. Maybe I would watch that game before I call it a day. Taking an early bet just in case I will not be able to watch.

Good luck with both our bets.

Although, one of them looks to be entertaining.

Boston Celtics - Memphis Grizzlies - Boston Celtics (-4.5) No updates yet about Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart will not play, and Malcolm Brogdon is probable. The Grizzlies are clean, Steven Adams is the only one listed for about two weeks already. The Celtics got stronger because of Mike Muskala and on his debut he made an impressive 12 points, 4/8 at distance shots in just 16 minutes of playtime versus the Hornets. Will be looking forward to seeing him play more minutes in this game against the Grizzlies while they are undermanned.

Toronto Raptors - Detroit Pistons - Toronto Raptors (-10.5) OG Anunoby is out for the Raptors. While the Pistons won't have Nerlens Noel due to personal reasons. I want to see James Wiseman if he can play on his debut as a Piston.
The Raptors are 16-13 in their home games, Pistons are 7-21 on the road.

Good luck everyone.

We just have 2 games for tomorrow, and my pick for games tomorrow are

Boston Celtics VS Memphis Grizzlies

The stake odds for this game are 1.61 for Celtics and 2.38 for the Grizzlies, right now Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown, and Danilo Gallinari can not play for the Celtics and Malcolm Brogdon is questionable if he can play for the Celtics, while Steven Adams can not play for the Grizzlies, for this game the Celtics surely is in a disadvantage here because of their injuries but surely even though Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart can not play I think that Jayson Tatum can surely score a win here, that is why my pick is the Boston Celtics,

Toronto Raptors VS Detroit Pistons

The stake odds for this game are 1.18 for the Raptors and 5.20 for the Pistons, Right now OG Anunoby can not play for the Raptors, while Nerlens Noel and Marvin Bagley III can not play for the Pistons, and James Wiseman is questionable if he can play for the Piston, for this game I am pretty much confidence with the Raptors winning but surely because of the odds I will not bet directly on them, but my pick to win here are the Toronto Raptors,
