Yeah, I understand but I felt the odds were rather ridiculous given how not so fit the Miami Heat themselves are, and I really didn't find any worthy value in the +4.5 for the Hornets, I believe if they're going to lose the game, the Miami Heat would cover the spread. That said, it's been a close first half both teams having a go at each other, neither team have had any significant lead yet, despite the numerous lead changes.

Bam Adebayo isn't slowing down for nobody !!!


EDIT: what a game down the stretch that was, it was pretty much intense, and despite the Hornets creating a double digit lead, Miami Heat stayed locked in and could've taken the lead if that Tyler Herro 3pt attempt had went, that surely could have changed the final result, but in the end the Hornets were able to survive and secure the win!

Agree with you, it was a miss call and they cannot revert anything since there was no call at all. Lebron was furious because he knows he got hit and sure expecting a call on that drive, I'm pretty sure the fans also sees that and not happy with how the home team won the game, that game will not be forgotten and refs will always be blame.

The easiest bet was the Bucks, they are in control in the whole game and did not give the Pelicans a chance to make it a close game. Most of the results last night was a blowout win by the favorites, except for the Miami Heat vs Charlotte whom the home team were able to win and upset the visiting team.

Let's not get too emotional about 1 missed call and 1 error. This happens in different teams too, it's just too hyped because it happened at a crucial moment and it's the Lakers and it's Lebron. Every game, referees make those misses and mistakes.

Wise decision bud, good thing you waited for the announcement before you pull the trigger. Giannis is just too much to handle, he is unstoppable, so without him, you can really trust the Bucks to win. Getting 50 points is just easy for him, he can get that in any game if he wants to because he is the best player and has the liberty to shoot the ball in the entire game. Also, we have to commend his effort in the rebounding department as he also had 13 rebounds, 3 of that are offensive rebounds.

And so Giannis Antetokounmpo did play and I have changed my bet to the Bucks but because it is not going to be profitable I have a Combo bet and I have bet Antetokounmpo to get 30 plus points for this game which is over 30 because Giannis Antetokounmpo has scored 50 points for this game, and because Antetokounmpo have gotten that kind of score, those spread from the Pelicans is not enough they probably need Zion Williamson in stopping Antetokounmpo to his tracks,

This is Lakers VS the referees,

Still not too bad mate, your Cleveland bet managed go through the hoops and defeated the Clippers with a huge margin. Congratulations!

But you stated that you will not be betting on the Pelicans side if Giannis will be there and play for the Bucks, well, I hope you didn't because the Milwaukee Bucks won this game with 25 points in gap.

Agree with you, it was a miss call and they cannot revert anything since there was no call at all. Lebron was furious because he knows he got hit and sure expecting a call on that drive, I'm pretty sure the fans also sees that and not happy with how the home team won the game, that game will not be forgotten and refs will always be blame.

Sometimes there's no explanation as to why we go against the logic, or maybe it was the risk in our our end as gamblers. True, when I check the score and saw that they are behind, I still think that they can over come it because they are at home and very confident.

I skipped the Cavs and Clippers game though, it could have been 4/4 but I'm good with the win tonight.

3 expected favorite teams won their respective games.
Memphis Grizzlies.
Milwaukee Bucks - Thanks for the tip here @Baofeng, caught the -9.5 for the Bucks and got the win.

It turned out to be just one of those days where you against logic and common sense and it pays off eventually, I really just didn't need to think to much back the Hornets, I guess the odds and the Miami Heat be somewhat off and heavily rotating on their squad made me question the chemistry going into the game.

Memphis Grizzlies and Ja Morant finally ended the 5 games losing streak, with quite a huge statement and coming from a huge deficit behind, It's probably the sign that's needed before throwing some money behind them this week.

Great Pick on this one, Hornets winning so not just the ML but even the 4.5 was a hit for you.

Memphis has some scary moments in the game as the Pacers took the first 2 quarters and I thought that they are going to lose one at home. But in was Jaren Jackson who bring them back as he leads the team in scoring.

Pelicans their big 3 is out, so Milwaukee taking advantage of it so it was a huge 25 point winning spread.

IMO, it's not a mistake, it's a missed call. Because if there was probably a call then they can challenge it if they see the ref making a mistake.
I felt bad when I saw it too, and judging from Lebron's reaction it could've been a big one if only the ref whistled. I won't be too judgmental with the refs though just like what they are doing in the trends, they had been calling and1's on Lebron's favor a lot of times and that's the only miss they made. Bad timing only as it was a crucial part.

Part of me is agreeing with you about that but the other part of me isn't because these refs should still be careful about their calls because it could cost some team their lost and it will be unfair, so, should we always wait for someone who will challenge the call and let the refs slide by the mistakes they've commit. Although, this is not the 1st time, it's still time for these refs to get penalties for their mistakes, so that they will be pressured to be the best they can be.

Other than that, that call cost me too If I'm not mistaken, the ML that time was more than 3.20

Here is my pick for games tomorrow,

Charlotte Hornets VS Miami Heat

The stake odds for this game are 3.00 for the Hornets and 1.42 for the Heat, right now Kelly Oubre Jr. can not play, and Cody Martin and Dennis Smith Jr. are questionable if they can play for the Hornets, while Duncan Robinson, Nikola Jovic, and Omer Yurtseven can not play for the Heat, right now I guess even though there are 3 injuries for the Heat it doesn't mean they can not make a great game, for me there are no main players that are injured then my pick are the Miami Heat,

Memphis Grizzlies VS Indiana Pacers

The stake odds for this game are 1.24 for the Grizzlies and 4.30 for the Pacers, Right now John Konchar and Steven Adams can not play for the Grizzlies, and Desmond Bane and Danny Green are questionable if they could play for the Grizzlies, while Tyrese Haliburton and Daniel Theis can not play for the Pacers, for this game just like I have said in the past I am not trusting Grizzlies inconsistency anymore, so I think that the Pacers would win this, even though without Halliburton, but I am not really betting for this game because of the odds, and the risk of picking the Pacers,

Cleveland Cavaliers VS Los Angeles Clippers

The stake odds for this game are 1.52 for the Cavaliers and 2.65 for the Clippers, Right now Dylan Windler can not play for the Cavaliers, and Donovan Mitchell and Kevin Love are questionable if they can play for the Cavaliers, while John Wall and Robert Covington can not play for the Clippers and Marcus Morris for this game I think I may go with the Cavaliers they are doing great right now for me mostly I think Mitchell and Love will play even though they are questionable,

Milwaukee Bucks VS New Orleans Pelicans

The stake odds for this game are 1.20 for the Bucks and 4.90 for the Pelicans, right now Serge Ibaka and Bobby Portis can not play for the Bucks, and Giannis Antetokounmpo, MarJon Beauchamp, and AJ Green are all questionable if they can play for the Bucks while E.J. Liddell, Dyson Daniels, and Zion Williamson can not play for the Pelicans, for this game I think I will still look if Giannis can not play for the Bucks this is a situation where you will look at their ace player if he can play my pick will be the bucks but I will not bet on this game but if he's not going to play likely I will go with the Pelican,

There's no need to change the call because it's a non call, they can only change a call after a challenge if it's a foul IMO. Anyway, let's move forward, the controversy will stay because NBA is a controversial league, this is not the first time it happened actually. Let's just trust that the Lakers will win in their next game, so get ready with our bets.

Great Pick on this one, Hornets winning so not just the ML but even the 4.5 was a hit for you.

Memphis has some scary moments in the game as the Pacers took the first 2 quarters and I thought that they are going to lose one at home. But in was Jaren Jackson who bring them back as he leads the team in scoring.

Pelicans their big 3 is out, so Milwaukee taking advantage of it so it was a huge 25 point winning spread.

So despite that status, they still make the Bucks as the heavy favorite? What if Giannis will play, will the spread would increase to -12.5? I think the handicap is good considering the Pelicans badly need a win, they might loss again but they will likely cover the spread, especially if Giannis is out.

Good, I thought I'm the only one betting on those huge underdogs on games, hehehe. This time though, since the game has started, 4.5 for Hornets @2.05.

Memphis going back at home against the Kings, they have been losing on the road, but again, I do hope that this time, they will break their losing skid. I'm looking at a double digit win for them, -9.5 @2.07.

Bucks is healthy once more, against NOP, -9.5 @1.92.
