Analyzing some results of the games, I'm realizing that some unforeseen things happened, I was surprised with the Warriors defeat and also with the Lakers victory, without LJ and AD.

In tonight's game, my pick will also be the Memphis Grizzlies

Good luck everyone!

Now here are my picks for tomorrow's game

Orlando Magic VS Memphis Grizzlies

The stake odds for this game are 3.45 for the Magic and 1.33 for the Grizzlies, right now Chuma Okeke, Jonathan Isaac, and Bol Bol can not play for the Magic and Jalen Suggs is questionable if he can play for the Magic, while Danny Green can not play for the Grizzlies, and Brandon Clarke is questionable if he can play, for this game I think that the Grizzlies surprised me the most on their last game, and right now Ja "Almost" Morant is getting his game up while Dillon "Dynasty" Brooks is keeping himself together again with the defense, so my pick is the Grizzlies,

Dallas Mavericks VS Boston Celtics

The stake odds for this game are 2.22 for the Mavericks and 1.70 for the Celtics, Right now Maxi Kleber, Dorian Finney-Smith, and Josh Green can not play for the Mavericks while Danilo Gallinari can not play for the Celtics, for this game right now I think the Celtics is needing a win now that they have 2 consecutive losses, so for this game, my pick is the Boston Celtics,

Houston Rockets VS Utah Jazz

The stake odds for this game are 3.20 for the Rockets and 1.37 for the Jazz, right now Jae'Sean Tate, can not play for the Rockets, while Collin Sexton can not play for the Jazz, and for this game for me the Utah Jazz still has the fundamental of a great team, but managing them is not that easy with just Collin Sexton are out and can not play, I think they can handle the Rockets probably fine, so my pick is the Utah Jazz,

Denver Nuggets VS Los Angeles Clippers

The stake odds for this game are 1.51 for the Nuggets and 2.65 for the Clippers, right now the Nuggets have Collin Gillespie, Peyton Watson and Jeff Green can not play for them because of individual injuries, while Nicolas Batum, can not play for the Clippers, while Nicolas Batum is questionable if he can play for the Clippers but for me because of that I think that the Nuggets had a more solid team just my intuition but this is what I see, so my pick will be the Denver Nuggets,

Are we getting trap with the Lakes taking a lead against the Heat, without Lebron, AD?

I'm taking the Heat -5.5 at 2.20 live betting. Still in the 2nd half and although the Lakers are leading at their homecourt, they might tire (they usually does), and it's time for Miami to take the two full quarters.

Nets though lost even if Durant has a big 44 points, thus ending their winning streak.

The Lakers win the game, Dennis and Russ works with their offense well, without AD and LeBron the Lakers manage to protect the homecourt
it is good to see that all the players are really working together to win the game.

Not sure what happened with the Heat, I was thinking that they can win this easily with Bam and Jimmy and the rest of their role players
I don't see them losing this game.

This bet will probably go through because even if you gave a -5 handicap to the home team, they will still win the game and that's almost guaranteed because they are now leading the game with a 30+ points. Quite surprised by the game actually because I was expecting the opposite thing where the Celtics leads the game and not the other way around.
It was definitely unexpected to see them take down a team sitting at the top of the standings by a huge margin. At the start, I was just hoping they get a good early lead and use that lead to keep it close.

Funny thing is that if they have managed to defeat a much heavy and stronger team like the Boston Celtics then I bet they won't be having a hard time against the Orlando Magic earlier where they have SGA on their line-up but that wasn't the case as it turns out that the Thunder lost. I may have no evidence but it's somewhat clear that the Celtics-Thunder match-up was cooked. Any thoughts about that game?

Probably, but most of the time it doesn't work that way though, just look at the Warriors, they have a good record at home, even defeated top teams like the Grizzlies, but then Klay went cold and lost to the Detroit Pistons.

For tomorrow's game, I going to tail you guys with the Memphis against Magic, -6.5 @1.84 now.

Dallas 3.5 @1.86 against the Boston Celtics. Probably the Jazz will win and break their losing streak against the Houston, so -6.5 @1.93.

All single bets, I'm not going for a parlay. Best of luck.

I hope you were able to be live on the Cavaliers and able to get the moneyline odds, they won by 2 points only so they were unable to cover the pregae spread. I was lucky about my Grizz and Magic bets, but I lose the rest of my bets, it's a bad night for me, so I'm here to bounce back.
Yes, let's bounce back.
I'm thinking of putting a bet on the underdogs.
Clippers ML
Magic ML
Dallas ML
Rockets ML
Bro, I admire your courage here. Did you lock your bets?
Although I think something is off. Boston Celtics as favorites after losing big against OKC Thunder but as I checked the player props, Luka Doncic is available and so is Christian Wood which means they are strong enough to defeat them.
I will tail that Dallas Mavericks ML of yours.
Player prop for Luka suddenly grew, 53.5 PRA for x2.05 profits. Him skyrocketing his stats hurts gamblers like me who puts a bet on him.

Denver Nuggets - Los Angeles Clippers - Nuggets -4.5 @1.85.
Orlando Magic - Memphis Grizzlies - Grizzlies -5.5 @1.86.
Good luck.

Here are my picks for the later games.

I only have 6 bets for now because I'm on a tight budget, LOL.. but maybe I'll add some live betting bets if I see some good value.

1-Nets -5.5
2-Raptors -3.5
3-76ers -8.5
4-Magic -2.5
5-Cavaliers -4.5
6-Grizzlies -7.5

ALL FAVORITES!

Will be tailing your 76ers and Magic pick, and would go bet live with Cavs. Favorite picks with some value in them, but still difficult to go into a parlay since I'm not so sure about Magic making that huge of a lead against OKC who seems to be on fire on their last game. The Raptors is also a pretty solid pick for me but I'll just minimize my bets because I lost all games yesterday Grin

Hopefully no last minute injury reports because I'm unavailable to change my bet 2 hours before the game starts!

Magic didn't fail me even though I haven't got the time to watch them earlier. Everyone on the team gave some effort to the win, pushing them with a 7-point lead in the end. Very impressed with Wendell Carter Jr. getting 13 rebounds and watching the replay makes me want to bet more in this team.

Currently eyeing on Magic +6.5 at home to take on Grizzlies. The latter is currently building up a good 4-win streak and I can see them continuing the lead. However it's hard to discredit Magic's home performance and they'd surely try to close the gap as much as possible. This is not a lock just yet and I'm still waiting for some good tips and some good analysis (and of course, injury reports) before finalizing this bet.

I love the magic in this spot, both teams will be playing a back to back game but the advantage is on the home team as they don't need to travel. Before the win of the Magic, they came from a bad losing streak, and now that they start winning again, I guess their win streak might continue. About injuries, we have to watch the Magic because so far, they are the team that has many injuries in their roster.

Should have taken that Lakers' line during the live bets. I think at some point it reached 1.8 odds for Lakers -2.5 and that would have been a hit. Totally missed that line and ignored it because I was so invested in the 76ers pick expecting them to cover but nah, they really had to do me like that.

Well, well, that was mostly a surprising result. No parlay won. I tried to divide by 3's so that it will have a higher chance to win, and yet still zero.  Cheesy

The first pick is a loss - Chicago Bulls won against Brooklyn Nets.
The second pick is a win - Memphis Grizzlies dominated the Charlotte Hornets. Thankfully.
The third pick is another win - Pelicans covered the spread -7.5 versus the Houston Rockets.

It's a good early pick with 2/3 and yet I felt like I am still at a big loss. My parlays are what I am expecting to win today but sadly the combination was not right enough to hit.
Congratulations to all the winners.  Wink

It was EPIC! no, it was a disastrous outcome that befall me and I got 1 / 4 win,

Orlando Magic VS Oklahoma City Thunder SCORE 126 - 115 - LOST

It was the Magic that got the lead 1st in the 1st quarter but Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (so long name) really is a monster on the court getting 33 points and leading this game score, surely they are Josh Giddey for backup 16 points, but it was not enough and they were checkmate by the Magic because Orlando Magic did the epic pay was almost all of their players have double-digit points so that Shai's score didn't really matter, and so the Magic have won this match,

Minnesota Timberwolves VS Portland Trail Blazers SCORE 113 - 106 - LOST

I never thought that the Timberwolves still had this on them and against the Trail Blazers I really didn't see this coming maybe the Trail Blazer has some trouble Damian Lillard could take the W but Anthony Edwards got the better of him by securing the game on the 1st half,

New Orleans Pelicans VS Houston Rockets SCORE 119 - 108 - WIN

No Williamson and Ingram no problem, and this is because the Rockets really didn't stand a chance the Pelicans have secured an epic 1st half lead against the Rockets, and just like I have said CJ McCollum really  got it going with 28 points Jonas Valanciunas have a double-double of 17 rebounds and 16 points, and Naji Marshall also got 16 points winning the game,  

Golden State Warriors VS Detroit Pistons SCORE 119 - 122 - LOST

Well the lack of defender has made the Golden State Warriors very vulnerable and Jordan Poole is now doing both as defense and offense same as Klay has made a huge toll on the players of the Warriors and it was really shown in the overtime run and because I don't really like to see them losing this much but the game is really close and I think there is no shame in this game because they got a lot of injured players, right now and Poole and Thompson really need a day off in playing pressure every game,

Nets though lost even if Durant has a big 44 points, thus ending their winning streak.

All things must come to an end, and that's the same for Brooklyn Nets, They barely could just win one quarter, while losing the other three.

Lakers despite No Lebron James and Anthony Davis, they're still thriving hard to get this win for tonight, Klay Thompson have also gone really cold tonight, he's still 0/5 from his 3-point attempt, GSW are only trailing by 3 points, and they're about to start the 4th Quarter, so It's sill either side's game to win or loss, it's 50/50 situation imo.

Yes, I think there are a lot of surprises in tonight game,

GSW losing at their home court, against the lowly Detroit Pistons, and then the Nets, snapping their successive wins and losing against the Bulls.

Trailblazers losing to the Timberwolves, Bucks and Sixers, barely made it, the hard way winning in OT and I don't think they cover the handicap too. And then the Kings, after a great win against the Utah Jazz, lost to the struggling Atlanta Hawks, lots of surprises and very unpredictable outcome for us bettors. Probably we will just have to move up and look for the games tomorrow.

Excellent observation!
I confess that I am extremely surprised with this Lakers vs Heat game.

Never would I have imagined that the Lakers could be a competitive team without LeBron James and AD, and that's what's happening with this game.
Lakers are playing well and so far he's beating the Heat.
Let's see if can continue with this performance and possibly win this game.

Guys, what are your picks for this round? Could we have some surprises? Or not?

I like the Brooklyn Nets, they've played very beautiful basketball recently and I also agree that they should be able to continue their 12 point winning streak tonight, I'm however only taking the -4.5 full time spread @ 1.84, as well as the Golden State Warriors -5.5 spread @ 1.78, although I still find it to be a tricky bet with Wiggins and Curry still out until further notice, but If Klay Thompson is able to step up like he did some days ago, then there will no contest for Detroit Pistons at all.

I'm torn between the Cavs and the Nets but i'll take the less stressful match with the Cavs -4 at home and just continue to bet against the Suns.

The only downside I see with the Cavs is that they still don't have Garland but I doubt it matters that much when the Suns can't get any good results recently.

Edit: Another tough first half from the Cavs as they're down by 10, they'll need a solid 2nd half recovery just like the Bulls game.
Edit2: Comeback win for the Cavs but not enough to cover the spread though. Also that Warriors game was crazy in the end lol.
