I'm actually putting in on Denver-12.  I know I'm of the minority but think this game will be too much for the Warriors to overcome and I can see Kerr giving guys lots of minutes off.  Concede the game in light of health.  I don't think right away but if they are down double digits by the end of the second quarter think Kerr will take his foot off the gas.  Jokic might be a tough cover for gs.

Here is my pick for today's game please take this with a grain of salt,

Indiana Pacers VS Los Angeles Lakers

The stake odds for this game are 2.11 for the Pacers and 1.77 for the Lakers, Right now Tyrese Haliburton and Daniel Theis are questionable if they can play for the Pacers, while Austin Reaves, can not okay for the Lakers, and Anthony Davis, and Patrick Beverley, Scotty Pippen Jr., and LeBron James are all questionable if they can play, for the Lakers, because of the performance of the Lakers and I think we can say there are 3 to 4 games for Lebron James to make it beat the Record of Abdul Jabbar the Lakers will surely push and do their all to win this and right now because Tyrese Haliburton can not play for the Pacers, I will go with the Lakers,

New York Knicks VS Miami Heat

The stake odds for this game are 2.09 for the Knicks and 1.78 for the Heat, Right now Mitchell Robinson can not play for the Knicks while Duncan Robinson, Orlando Robinson, Nikola Jovic, Omer Yurtseven can not play for the Heat, and Victor Oladipo is questionable if he can play for the Heat, In my opinion, Robinson is a key player for the Knicks and not having him for the team can surely be a bad thing, while the Heat even though with that many injuries they still have most key players in winning so my pick are the Miami Heat,

Dallas Mavericks VS New Orleans Pelicans

The stake odds for this game are 1.52 for the Mavericks and 2.60 for the Pelicans, Right now Christian Wood and Maxi Kleber can not play for the Mavericks, while Dyson Daniels, E.J. Liddell, and Zion Williamson can not play for the Pelicans, so I think that Williamson is the key in stopping most of the Doncic shots or he can lessen it but if Luka Doncic can have his momentum he can surely score 50 plus point so my pick is the Dallas Mavericks,

Denver Nuggets VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 1.15 for the Nuggets and 5.80 for the Warriors, right now Jack White, and Collin Gillespie can not play for the Nuggets and Aaron Gordon is questionable if he can play for the Nuggets, while Andre Iguodala, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson, and Stephen Curry are questionable if they can play, I think they will let Draymond, Klay, and Steph, rest for a while to make better products on the most crucial game, I think they will rely on Jordan Poole, and the rest of the remaining team to make a win against the Nugget away, which is very impossible when it is away, for this 1 I am returning back to this and see the start of the game if they will let Curry, Thompson, and Green play they I think I may bet for the Warriors because of the high low odds for them means big profit,

Hello guys,

Sorry I couldn't share my picks here because I was a little sick. I will continue my picks tonight.
I will share my pick as soon as possible.

Good luck.

Yes, as of now, there's no reported injuries for the entire Warriors roster except for Andre Igoudala. The starters are quite healthy but lately, they've been playing too long without having any rests in-between and they just had a back-to-back game with a loss too. Let's already consider that maybe Steph or Klay might take the day-off, so that won't be having any wear and tear in the upcoming days. But I agree, a +10.5 handicap is not that bad.

It's now Warriors +12, it's quite tempting to bet the said game versus the Nuggets and I think I'll just bet on it live as well as the Lakers-Pacers game later.

For the Warriors situation, they just had a loss against the Wolves last time in OT and the reason for that spread is that the Splash Bros might rest as well as Green.

For now, this is my advance bet. Cleveland Cavaliers -6 vs Memphis Grizzlies.

Perhaps the long rest of both Curry and Wiggins did affect them in chemistry. They should make haste at making it right because their turnover is not going down yet. Perfect execution of their plays will be the key to their winning chance again. And also, they got bad at closing games. Honestly, it was better when the bench are playing.

7 games tomorrow, back-to-back for the Warriors and they are still on the road at Denver. Ouch. No reports yet about starters resting for the Warriors and the Nuggets only have Gordon as questionable. Nuggets will eat them here. The line is +10.5, Warriors are super underdog.

Cleveland Cavaliers - Memphis Grizzlies - Cleveland Cavaliers (-5.5) - Grizzlies an underdog too despite being one of the top teams in the West. It could be because no one will handle the paint without Steven Adams and the Cavs' strength is deep under that rim with Allen and Mobley.

Indiana Pacers - Los Angeles Lakers - Los Angeles Lakers (-4.5) I still don't see the Pacers winning without Tyrese Haliburton, the Lakers will probably add one more on the Pacers' losing streak.

Dallas Mavericks - New Orleans Pelicans - Dallas Mavericks (-4.5) This could become a close game if the Pelicans will play the same way they did against the Nuggets. Take advantage of the time when Doncic will rest like what they did when Jokic and Murray were benched. If not, it will be a blowout.

Good luck to everyone.

I find the Warriors quite hard to read at the moment but the current odds @1.90+ is already decent. I don't see any reason not to take that bet since no reported injuries on starting players as you mentioned. I'm not betting on them on ML but they should be able to cover that +10.5 handicap.   

Frustrated with the Grizzlies against Portland, no Nurkic and Jaren Jackson was not able to take advantage of it. And then they go on a early foul trouble that's why the can't get a better defender on Dame early.

And then they feel in love with shooting 3's instead of penetrating inside and there are no rim protector. They have a 6 point lead entering the 4th and they squandered it. So much for them looking at Celtics as their biggest rivals, they will have a lot of thinking winning against the West team first.

I have the Warriors +10.5 against the Nuggets. What do you think about the spread? is it a gift or just a trap?

Warriors came from a disappointing loss, and might be tired going to this game but I don't think they'll lose in double-digit against the home team.
About injury, there's no announcement yet that one of their best players will not play, like Curry or Thompson.

So would you guys take the handicap?

They made a mistake, and that's it. You can't blame them because they lose, that's normal mate, they still have a good standing now, or there's an improvement in the last month, so it's alright. This team is the defending champion, they make mistakes but they always bounce back from that mistakes. Curry was still the consistent player of the team, score 29 points from 8-21 shooting while KT and JP had a poor shooting night, they shoot like 30% only. 

I'm not sure what happened but it looks like the Warriors are too complacent in that game. I mean, they were a team that is good in taking care of their lead, but what happen, they were outscored in the 4th quarter and Wolves almost beat them in the regular period. That was an upset though the Warriors are not really heavily favored, there's really a big difference playing on the road and at their home court.

Yeah, it destroyed my parlay, damn it, easy win by Boston while the Sixers needed everything they got to win against the Magic.

And one upset is Portland winning, and then GSW lost as well and the Suns losing by big margin.


Ok, I was about to bet on that game for the Wizards and I was surprised that there are no listing on that game and saw that it is suspended.

It still went under despite the high volume of 3 point shooting. Lillard gone crazy in this game, he was shooting very well in the 3 point line, I must say that they are lucky that's why they won the game, but if it's a series game, I believe Memphis will win that series.


Warriors gave up their good lead and lose in the OT, I did not finish watching the game but when I left, they were like leading a double digit already and seemed in control of the game.

Surely you win some and you lose some and this day was really not a great day for my bet right now well maybe later I will be back in analyzing my bets but I will look and see,

---

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

Memphis Grizzlies VS Portland Trail Blazers SCORE 112 - 122 - LOST

It is just WOW that the Grizzlies Dynasty has once again been destroyed by the Trail Blazers, the Grizzlies are doing great in the 1st quarter but the Trail Blazers have likely gotten together and made a comeback in the half time, Jerami Grant got 18 points, Anfernee Simons got 26 points and Damian Lillard has a double-double of 10 assists and 42 points, winning the game against the Grizzlies,

Minnesota Timberwolves VS Golden State Warriors SCORE 119 - 114 - LOST

It was a close game the Warriors also leading to victory when the Timberwolves snatch the lead the Golden State Warriors got a great lead but the Timberwolves still likely caught up to them, Naz Reid has a double-double of 13 rebounds and 24 points, Anthony Edwards got 27 points and D'Angelo Russell has 29 points, Winning against the Golden State Warriors,

Houston Rockets VS Oklahoma City Thunder SCORE 112 - 106 - LOST

Now this is a shocking win for the Rockets for many this is surprising, the Rockets had somehow gotten their momentum, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's Score was halted to 24 aswell, Tari Eason has a double-double of 13 rebounds and 20 points, and Eric Gordon got 25 points leading the Rockets to victory,

Utah Jazz VS Toronto Raptors SCORE 131 - 128 - WIN

This is really great I really like what the Utah Jazz had been doing and this is likely their team playing at its best, and Fred VanVleet has taken a Triple-double of 12 rebounds 10 assists, and 34 points but it was not enough because the Jazz has likely had a great spread, Mike Conley Jr. got 19 points, Jordan Clarkson got 23 points and Lauri Markkanen has a double-double of 13 rebounds and 28 points,

I guess I couldn't have been more right about the Grizzlies vs Blazers, that the Blazers couldn't be underestimated and they proved just that, Memphis Grizzlies controlled and led for majority of the game, so I was kinda curious to see how it will all play out with my Under bet, the Grizzlies just couldn't stay locked in the 4th Quarter and lost control of the game down the stretch, so they ended up losing the game with exact opposite mentality which they showed against Indiana Pacers which got them that win.

As for the Warriors, I don't even have any word to the say about them, other than their game play looked way better than that of a team barely above the 0.500 PCT mark 🙄

7-19 record on the road the their chemistry. That might be the reasons why they lost on the road.
With what you said regarding Draymond, I think it's their chemistry is the reason why it's happening a lot of times. We've known Draymond as a passer and if you are a teammate of him for a long time, you know that he will make passes like that. Just look at Steph and Klay. They know what they are doing if Draymond is holding the ball. They must strengthen their chemistry now that they have many newcomers in their team.

4-0 sweep again in the playoffs?

It surprised me that the Nets lost to the Celtics by almost 40 points. 46-16 first quarter? I mean WTF? It's unacceptable for a top-seeded team like the Nets to score only 16 points in one quarter while their opponent scored 46. I agree with what you said as well that without Durant, they aren't that good team. Yes they are better compare to last season when Durant is out, but still him not playing is a big problem for the team. They are getting wins yes, but they have more losses than wins. Well, he is out for their next 2 games against Wizards and the Clippers, but he's expected to come back on the 8th of February against the Suns.

I can't believe the Warriors lost against the Timberwolves, they are getting sloppy with their plays. I know it's the right ones but it doesn't click well especially when Draymond expects their cuts and he just throws the ball out of nowhere where the cutter should be. It's been happening a lot of times, Steve Kerr should start strengthening at those parts, I bet they all see this in the tape and regrets their mistakes. A mountain of turnovers again.

Results.
Detroit Pistons - Washington Wizards - Void
Memphis Grizzlies - Portland Trail Blazers - Memphis Grizzlies (-5.5) Loss
Boston Celtics - Brooklyn Nets - Boston Celtics (-8.5) Win - early blowout. Nets only scored 16 in the first quarter while the Celtics made 46. I think that's the highest lead that I saw in the first quarter.
Minnesota Timberwolves - Golden State Warriors - Golden State Warriors (-4.5) Loss
San Antonio Spurs - Sacramento Kings - Sacramento Kings (-7.5) Win! Yahoo! Kings all the way.
2/4, not bad.
Congratulations to all the winners.
Phoenix Suns are being blown out by the Hawks too. I doubt they can return from a 30-point lead.

Ya, Boston is having their way with the Nets on ESPN right now. It shows you that when it comes to the teams they would face in the playoffs they need to ride Durant. Without KD I don’t think they’re a very good team.

The Suns and Hawks are up next. This should be a good game with the Booker injury still in play. You don’t see Trae Young on TV very often.

Boston Celtics having a huge lead against the Nets, most likely the early handicap or above -9.5 could be covered by the Celtics.

Now the handicap is -28.5 for them.

Sixers and Magic still very close game, could go either way same with Portland vs Memphis.

According to @wojespn on twitter; It's said to be postponed due to some travel issues with the Pistons team flight out of Dallas to Michigan.
