I definitely agree! Hence why Klay Thompson got a 30+ record and got the win against the Timberwolves earlier today. Folks, let's not forget that the Golden State Warriors are already proven that they are really really hard to defeat at home and that will remain as long as the Splash Brothers are still on the team, even if Klay was the only present today, what more if Steph Curry was there.

It's pretty advisable that we should just bet on the Warriors especially if they are playing at the Chase Center, or if at doubt, let's just skip the game as that's safer.

I did but not for the LA Clippers. 
I made two separate parlays on the late games.

Luckily, it won and it could've been better if I went for just one 4 way parlay. But a win is still profits so I am okay with it.
I missed the Warriors game and just watching the highlights now. Also, missed the Trail Blazers game and just found out in the reports that Dame went nuts with 71 points. That's crazy.
Nuggets vs Clippers though I didn't miss. That is one hell of an entertaining game that went to overtime thanks to Porter's three-pointer and then PG13 coming back to get a foul.
They still haven't lost a game whenever Jokic makes a triple-double.

I was thinking that GSW will let this one go after that 3rd quarter run from the Wolves, but to my surprise they push this one
and do everything to reverse the outcome.

Klay again provides the need while Steph was out, shooting impressively while helping as well with their defense, the rest
was all-in to win the game.

I'm sure there are live bettors who take the risk for GSW while they are down after the end of the 3rd quarter.

I think we can really trust the Kings. The usual players who scored well are still contributing, especially Fox. Honestly, I was a bit tempted to bet on the Kings, but I realized that they might get tired because of the double overtime. However, I was wrong, they still continued their dominance. Next time, I won't miss betting on this team. They are a young team but a real playoff contender now.

Clippers still struggle to get a win at home, they should break that soon.

That's a bad decision. You cannot underestimate the Warriors, even without Curry, as long as they are playing at home. They have a very impressive home record, and that's the venue where Thompson's shooting is very efficient. The game was close overall, but the Warriors managed to win and cover the betting spread.

Yup! They might not let him play at all this is for the future of the team, and it is a good thing that they are in the 2nd position in the standing the Bucks can slack off a bit but I think they are not doing it right now and because of their great performance so far, the Milwaukee Bucks are in the safer zone, but the more crucial thing that the Bucks would need to think of was the future of their play-offs because they are a likely candidate to take the championship,

Now here are the result of my picks for games today, and I was really lucky about it,

Milwaukee Bucks VS Phoenix Suns SCORE 104 - 101 - WIN

It was really a close game but the Milwaukee Bucks did a great job in keeping the lead, and right now that Giannis Antetokoumpo is out and surely needs a rest every player of the Bucks would need to step up and do what they can while the Suns will need to take this opportunity to get this Bucks disadvantage but they did not Khris Middleton has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 11 points, Brook Lopez has a double-double aswell of 13 rebounds and 22 points and Jrue Holiday got 33 points,

Atlanta Hawks VS Brooklyn Nets SCORE 129 - 127 - WIN

The game was really close but the Atlanta Hawks started the game with a bang and lead it big in the 1st half the Brooklyn Nets didn't capitalize on engaging a great game and kept the pace as it was, and yeah it was a great game to watch as Cam Thomas is learning to have chemistry with his team, but still, the Hawks win the game, Bogdan Bogdanovic got 22 points, Dejounte Murray got 28 points and Trae Young got 34 points,

Dallas Mavericks VS Los Angeles Lakers SCORE 108 - 111 - WIN

Surely the Lakers don't really need Kyrie Irving as every fan of the Lakers would want, right now they have a strong team, and like I have said if Lebron James and Anthony Davis can not play for the Lakers I would go with the Mavericks but it is a good thing that they played even though D'Angelo Russell did not play, Dennis Schroder got 16 points, Lebron James got 26 points and Anthony Davis got a double-double of 15 rebounds and 30 points,

Golden State Warriors VS Minnesota Timberwolves SCORE 109 - 104 - WIN

The Golden State Warriors got a pretty much decent read and Klay Thompson has fired up this time, Jordan Poole got 15 points, Donte DiVincenzo is really a great grab for the Warriors he got 21 points, and the man of the night, Klay Thompson, got 32 points,

There's a chance that he might not play in the remaining games for the regular season because of that injury, and just by seeing how the Bucks are playing without him, I guess they will just let him rest and recover from that injury instead of risking him and let him play. I mean the Bucks are still playing very well even without Giannis. We know that injuries play a big role when it comes to playoffs.

I guess I just underestimated the Warriors with this one. I put my bet on the Twolves on this game, and I regret it (a bit). Klay doing some Klay things, and all of their starters are in double figures.

As for the Nuggets-Clippers, the Nuggets bounced back after that humiliating loss against the Grizzlies while the Clippers suffered their 2nd straight loss. Jokic again had a 40 point triple double and still, the Nuggets are undefeated when he is having a triple double. Another MVP for him? I mean I would love to see him winning the MVP again for the 3rd straight time. When was the last time this happen? 80's with Larry Bird.

The results of my bets.
Anyway, here are my picks for tomorrow's ballgame:

Dallas Mavericks - Los Angeles Lakers - Dallas Mavericks @ 1.60 - Loss
- No comment on this one. They're just one of the worst defensive teams right now in the league, and how they can compete on the playoffs if they are playing like this. Having Kyrie and Luka isn't enough for the team to win. They need defense still.

Chicago Bulls - Washington Wizards - Chicago Bulls @ 1.57 - Win
- This is an easy one I think. With Porzingis not playing, I expect the Bulls to win on this one. They are playing better now with DeRozan back, and having Beverley on the roster might boost the confidence of the whole team.

Golden State Warriors - Minnesota Timberwolves - Minnesota Timberwolves @ 2.12 - Loss
- I underestimated the Warriors on this one that's why I lost.

It was a close game but the Bucks still manage to win and we are really right they can handle themselves without Giannis Antetokounmpo, while the Suns can surely win this because Antetokounmpo was not on the team but they failed miserably, taking a good spread but Jrue Holiday throw 33 points and lead the team to victory,

I surely think that Giannis Antetokoumpo needs to relax more, even though they would lost a couple of games they are still deep up the standings, and not play a game even if its a couple of minutes because it could be bad for his injuries,


And pretty much you are right about it, and I really think that Giannis needs time to rest and not play a couple of minutes in the game with an injured hand it could be bad if it gets worse and he can not play for the Play-offs of worst even the finals, and yeah they are in a secure spot where they don't need to worry anymore but still if they can get a win a winning game is certainly still needed,

2 games with the same outcome. Love is trying and the rest of the team is working on him,

I also believe that once they've found the right blend, they will start to win games.  It's not easy since the next round
is quickly approaching and most teams are eager in winning games, better for Heat to adjust and find the right combinations.


It turned to the other side, AD and LeBron lead the Lakers to win the game, very competitive performances from both sides
but in the end tight defense and a good look at the basket gives them the win.

I only bet one game last night as I was sort on bad losing streak.

Sacramento Kings vs OKC -3.5 @1.84 and it's good that the Kings has enough left in the tank to cover the handicapped.

Warriors coming from behind to win against the T'Wolves, Klay Thompson carrying the team again with 32 big points. Nuggets coming back from a big lost against the Memphis and beat the Clippers in OT.

Yep, it was a great game!
I liked the performance of both teams, but the Lakers missed several shots from 3 point shoot.
Overall I thought it was a good game, Luka + Irving I believe made a great duo, but LeBron + AD was sensational, they together almost reached 60 points (combined) and even Schroder and Vanderbilt helped the Lakers too!

The final Nuggets v Clippers period has begun (is anyone else watching?)
Whoever bet on the Clippers must be happy lol
LAC closed a significant gap in a short time, and I was convinced that the Nuggets would win easily, once again I was wrong lol

Apparently the LAC trio (Kawhi + Westbrook + PG) are having an interesting performance, let's see if they can stay at that pace and maybe lead the Clippers to victory against the Nuggets!

Oklahoma City Thunder vs Sacramento Kings
The Sacramento Kings (34-25) will visit the Oklahoma City Thunder (28-31) tonight at Paycom Center. The Sacramento Kings should win but we cannot underestimate the power of playing at home.
Thunder key injuries: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle)


Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Clippers
The Los Angeles Clippers (33-29) will visit the Denver Nuggets (42-19) tonight at Ball Arena. The Nuggets have beaten the Clippers 5 straight times and 8 of the last 9 times they have played. They are coming from a back-to-back games though and lost terribly against the Grizzlies.
Clippers key injuries: Ivica Zubac (calf) out
Nuggets key injuries: Cole Gillespie (leg) out, Aaron Gordon (ribs) out, Zeke Nnaji (shoulder) out

A very close game. I think Coach Kidd should think about making Luka Doncic take those long rests. It seems like he is having a hard time heating up after being benched.
Anthony Davis stepping up his game on the offensive end. That's good news for the Lakers team and this winning streak must continue if they want the playoffs or the play-in tournament.

2/4 on my super early games bet.
Bucks won by 3 points, just enough to cover my -1.5 bet.  Giannis didn't play but as I said, they still have a lot of talents on that team. Jrue Holiday stepped up.
The Nets lose but only by 2 points, that could've been a big underdog win.
Mavericks lost too by 3 points.
Bulls won in a blowout.

Next, late games.
Oklahoma City Thunder - Sacramento Kings - Sacramento Kings (-2.5)
Denver Nuggets - Los Angeles Clippers - Denver Nuggets (-1.5)

Well, I don't know, I believe that the Heat can be a big bet in the near future, I believe that some adjustments are necessary.
In the game between Heat and Hornets Love scored 13 points, not bad... I believe that soon he will be able to improve even more and help Miami in other close games.

Anyone watching the Lakers vs Mavs game?
This being a very competitive game, I was convinced that the Mavs would easily beat the Lakers, but that is not happening.

3rd straight night beating the books.  Let's keep it rolling with 3 more today:

I like 3 home favorites tonight. 

Atlanta -7 against the Nets.  They should cook the Nets here no reason it shoukdnt be a blowout.

Denver -3 against the Clippers.  Think Denver rebounds here and wins big.

Mavs -4.5 against the Lakers.  Tough game for the Lakers here thinks mavs take this one.

Enjoy the games and good luck tonight!

Same here, I also got the Milwaukee Bucks on my bets list for the games today. In-fact, I'm watching it now live and the Bucks are currently leading the game, and is up by 5 points in the 2nd quarter. Still a long way to go though, but I'm confident that they can still win today as they are still a strong team even without Giannis helping them.

The Wizards ML is also quite tempting to bet because the Chicago Bulls are really messing things up recently, just like the Heat. They are hard to predict these days.

I don't think Giannis will play with his current injury. I mean it's his hand. How can he make shots, and get rebounds if his right hand is injured. On the other hand, the Bucks' roster is very deep to the point that even though Giannis will not play, they still have pieces to win the game. Add also the fact that the Bucks have the one of the best home records right now with 25-5, I think the Bucks can get this one even though CP3, Booker and Ayton can play.

---

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

Dallas Mavericks - Los Angeles Lakers - Dallas Mavericks @ 1.60
- A team who is one of the worst in defense against one of the teams that has good defensive players. I think the Dallas will take this one "IF" their big 3 will not play and even though 1 or 2 only will play to them, I will still pick the Dallas on this one.

Chicago Bulls - Washington Wizards - Chicago Bulls @ 1.57
- A low odd, but kind of attractive knowing that the Bulls right now has one of the best defensive back court duos right now in Caruso and Beverley. They just demolished the Nets on their last game and that might create momentum on this Bulls team. I will pick them.

Golden State Warriors - Minnesota Timberwolves - Minnesota Timberwolves @ 2.12
- The Warriors currently have a 23-7 home record (one of the best), but Wiggins will not play on this one and at the same time, Green is questionable so I think the Timberwolves will steal one on the road even though they only have a 11-17 road record.

Good Luck to all bettors. Hope all of us will win.

I hope so. They had a bad record before the All-Star, with 4 wins and 9 losses in their last 13 games. Despite that, they are still on the 2nd seed thanks to their good start.

Many games later. 4 of them are super early and I might not be able to watch them so I am already putting my bets as early as possible.

Milwaukee Bucks - Phoenix Suns - Milwaukee Bucks (-1.5) Giannis is doubtful to play. But they still have Middleton, Jrue, Bobby, and Lopez so this team is still a strong one and they are playing at home. There's also the goal to make the winning streak as long as they can.

Atlanta Hawks - Brooklyn Nets - Brooklyn Nets ML @2.75 - This is a risky bet, I want to see them play better than their last game against the Bulls, protect the 5th spot and go to the playoffs.

Dallas Mavericks - Los Angeles Lakers - Dallas Mavericks (-2.5) - Russell, James, and Davis are all probable to play.

Chicago Bulls - Washington Wizards - Chicago Bulls (-4.5) No Kristaps for the Wizards. The Bulls might want to take advantage of this chance to win another game.

Good luck everyone.

I agree with you. The Bucks have a strong team and can definitely win at home and on the road. It will be interesting to see how Crowder performs against his former team, but I think the Bucks have enough talent to come out on top. Even without Giannis, they have shown that they can still compete and win against tough opponents.

Here are my picks for tomorrow's games

Milwaukee Bucks VS Phoenix Suns

The stake odds for this game are 1.65 for the Bucks and 2.30 for the Suns, right now Wesley Matthews, can not play, Giannis Antetokounmpo is doubtful if he can play while Landry Shamet, and Kevin Durant can not play for the Suns, so for me the I could surely go with the Bucks because even without Giannis the Bucks are doing great right now, so my pick is the Milwaukee Bucks,

Atlanta Hawks VS Brooklyn Nets

The stake odds for this game are 1.47 for the Hawks and 2.80 for the Nets, right now John Collins is doubtful if he's going to play for the Hawks while Ben Simmons can not play for the Nets, for this game we all know that the Nets doesn't have Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant all they have is Cam Thomas that still figuring out what he can do so my pick is the Atlanta Hawks,

Dallas Mavericks VS Los Angeles Lakers

The stake odds for this game are 1.61 for the Mavericks and 2.39 for the Lakers, Right now Davis Bertans and Maxi Kleber can not play for the Mavericks while LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and D'Angelo Russell are doubtful if they can play for the Lakers, for this game if those 3 doubtful for the Lakers could play on this game I will go bet for the Lakers but if those three can not then Mavericks will be my bet but for this game, I could surely change my bet, but for now, my pick is the Los Angeles Lakers,

Golden State Warriors VS Minnesota Timberwolves

The stake odds for this game are 1.69 for the Warriors and 2.22 for the Timberwolves, Right now Andre Iguodala, Andrew Wiggins, Stephen Curry, and Gary Payton II, can not play for the Warriors, and Draymond Green is doubtful if he can play for the game, while Karl-Anthony Towns, can not play for the Timberwolves, and Jaylen Nowell and Taurean Prince is doubtful if he can play for the Timberwolves, for me even though they don't have Stephen Curry right now they need a win and they are playing at home so Jordan Poole could be good at this, so my pick will be the Golden State Warriors,
