Couple odd lines tonight I don't know which way to go.  The only pick I'm convinced is a lock is the Spurs at home +15.  This smells of back door cover all day plus they have been home so this should be an easy cover.

And I'm taking the Pelicans on the road.  Dallas can't keep ripping at this rate I expect a close battle here.  Pels getting +9.5

And last gimme the Warriors-7 at home against Orlando.  That's a tough trip from the east coast.  I like this game.

Good luck everyone!

Let's see how the Lakers will perform in the game against the Kings.


I would not trust them against the Kings, unfortunately I may not be able to bet on the Kings despite my trust in them because the spread is very high. The spread now is -8.5, although Kings has no doubt would win here, I'm concerned if they can cover the spread.
You're right, I also consider a -8.5 spread relatively high, but basketball is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get lol
I confess, this game between Lakers and Kings will be interesting to watch

The Lakers have a good team, if they manage to make some adjustments, have chemistry with each other, I have no doubt that they can become a competitive team, for us to know that, only time will show us

I’m showing a -9.5 point spread for the Lakers tonight at the moment. I agree that is too large of a spread, especially the way LeBron has been playing. I think the Kings will probably win, but I don’t have faith they’ll cover the spread, so I think I’d take the Lakers on that one (with the spread). Might as well toss the Warriors beating the Magic and the Celtics beating the Spurs in there with a parlay.

My picks for tonight.

New Orleans Pelicans vs Brooklyn Nets (-4.5) = Brooklyn Nets  Win 1,93 Odds.

Denver Nuggets (-4.5) vs Cleveland Cavaliers = Denver Nuggets Win 1,74 Odds.

Phoenix Suns vs Miami Heat = Miami Heat Win 1,85 Odds.

Good luck guys.

Big win mate, 3 out 3, and everything went smoothly.
Nice pick, share again, hopefully before the game so I can counter check my bet to yours, you look lucky, so I might as well ride with you.

I'm eyeing on the Bulls, they came from a huge win, and might be playing a back to back game but Jazz are inconsistent recently.

Thanks bro.

There are only 5 games tonight, I will check the games and share my picks as soon as possible.

Lakers will be playing the Kings tomorrow, I'm not sure if they'll win, but since it's a back to back game for them, I guess they'll be a little tired on their first road trip. By the way, Lakers are currently on a 4 winning streak, we might consider that momentum but it's still up to us on how we will evaluate this game.
I'm with the Sacramento Kings at this. A fully rested team against back-to-back. I saw some back-to-back wins but it ain't the Lakers.
Not that I underestimate them but that's the reality bet.
It's now sitting at -10.5 for the Kings but I won't be greedy so I will take the -9.5 only just in case they try to return from a big lead.

2/3 as well for me, I also got the Nets and then the Pacers at handicap. Only blemish is the Wizards because I took the risk as they are the underdogs against the Thunder. But as good as OKC as being inconsistent, this is one night wherein they play good at their home court.
Nice!
OKC Thunder keeps on surprising us. First, that blowout game against the Boston Celtics. Now, a win against the Washington Wizards which are known as an offensive team even without Beal or Porzingis.
As the commentators on ESPN said, this is not a year where the number 1 seed is safe yet. This might be the season where we have a lot of changes on the top-rank seeds because even the lower seeds are trying to fight back. They are not lazy to give away a win to any team.

My other bet.
Dallas Mavericks - New Orleans Pelicans - Mavs -6.5 - They will play harder and for Luka, this is one of the competitive games he is looking for.

Anyone picking on the Lakers to win against the Hawks?

They are listed as the underdogs so I'm thinking to put some money on the ML @2.19. Not huge amount of money, but just enough to enjoy a late night basketball game.

James will be back and so is Bryant and so maybe they can extend their winning streak against Atlanta at their home court.

I actually picked Lakers to win this game even though they are underdog against the Hawks. They are playing at home, which is an advantage, so I was hoping they could continue their streak. They did defend their home. Schroeder is doing good consistently lately. He is a good help to Lebron and Westbrook. Westbrook is an assist away from triple-double with 18 pts, 11 rebounds and 9 assists.

Unfortunately, I parlayed the Lakers bet with the Suns, which is also an underdog in this game against Miami Heat, but that does not pan out well. I lost my parlay because of the Suns bet.

Sometimes you gotta bet against yourself, that emotion is too high and will cost you money. That looks hard to cover so the public will take the lakers spread, but I tell you, Kings will easily win and cover that spread tomorrow.  Grin

Nice win, the Lakers did play good at their homecourt with the King back in action. And it was a complete domination of the Hawks, Nunn also had a good game and it seems he had settled already.

2/3 for my bets. Not bad.
Brooklyn Nets covered the -4.5 bet against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Denver Nuggets covered the -5.5 bet against the Cleveland Cavaliers. It seems like everything is doing better on the Nuggets' side and now on the top of the West.

Sometimes the unexpected happens, and when you least expect it, you are surprised.
In my view, the Lakers seem to be improving day after day and even so, in the game against the Hawks, several LAL players had an expressive score, Bryant (19), Schroder (21), Westbrook (18), Nunn (23) and LJ (25).

The Lakers played with chemistry and that was an important factor, so, they had teamwork.

If the Lakers manage to maintain this performance, have chemistry between the players and stand out, I have no doubt that he will be able to participate in these playoffs, but for that to happen, it will be necessary to make these adjustments.

Let's see how the Lakers will perform in the game against the Kings.

They are very consistent and looks like they are covering the spread as well. I would not bet against this team for now, they are just doing some great consistency and it's hard to ignore that.

I pass on this game but whoever took the bet for the Lakers are winner now.
The stats are spread beautifully as Lebron, Westbrook, Bryant, Schroder, and especially Nunn helped each other to claim the W.
WB is one assist shy from another triple-double.
Same here, but it would have been a bad day for me if I pull the trigger and bet on the Hawks, I was thinking that after their win, they will continue but the Lakers now are very different, they seemed to be playing with sense of urgency as they want to win every game.

Most of my expected teams did win except for Philly as Embiid didn't play (I thought he is better according to Doc Rivers) and the Bulls took advantage of that.

Brooklyn Nets covered the -4.5 bet against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Denver Nuggets covered the -5.5 bet against the Cleveland Cavaliers. It seems like everything is doing better on the Nuggets' side and now on the top of the West.

You did a great job risking your money for the Lakers, LeBron lead the Lakers as he contributed 25 points, while Dennis and Nunn also have 20+ contributions to help him to win.

Lakers protect their home court with an amazing early start, they manage to protect their good lead fromt he first
half and not to allow the Hawks to rally back. Congrats to all who take that underdog as Lakers gives them the win!

Good luck guys.

I'm currently watching the Brooklyn Nets playing against Pelicans, and it's not not going to be an easy game for either side, but I couldn't manage to meet the bet so I'm gonna pass on the live bet, with New Orleans Pelicans wrecking havoc already very early into the 2nd quarter, it's going to take a huge character from the Nets to turn this around from this point.


I'm going to bank on the Miami Heat ML, Phoenix Suns have been nothing but utter shit lately so it's pretty much an east bet to take for me.

Nuggets -5.5 (how can't you bet on them all the time!)
I'm also betting on the Nuggets -5.5 since they continue to dominate most teams at home and they're sitting at 60% when it comes to covering the spread at home. Then on the side of the Cavaliers, the situation seems a bit worse as they won't have Mitchell in their starting lineup. The Nugs should likely win by at least double digits after seeing the Cavs barely holding off a weak Suns team in their last game.
