My bets for today



Los Angeles Clippers vs Brooklyn Nets

I expect that the match between Los Angeles Clippers (7-5) and Brooklyn Nets (5-7) will be a close game. Brooklyn will have to rely to Kevin Durant to carry the team against Clippers. They will be missing Kyrie in this game while the Clippers will be missing Kawhi.

Washington Wizard vs Utah Jazz

Utah Jazz (10-3) will visit Washington Wizard (6-6) in their game tonight. Utah Jazz is favorite in this game. Utah has won 2 out of 3 games that they are favorite. They are looking to extend their winning streak into 5 wins.


Detroit Pistons vs Boston Celtics

Detroit Pistons (3-10) will defend their arena against the Boston Celtics (9-3) tonight. The Boston Celtics is looking to extend their winning streak into 6 against the Pistons. They are heavily favorite to win this game and I think they can do it. They win 75% of the time they are named odds favorite.

I saw that the Suns were upset by the Magic, tough match for Phoenix.

I didn't expect they'll lose because they are a heavy favorite going to the game. Playing on the road but they are -7.5, I guess they were too complacent and they didn't see it coming, and by the way, Booker was struggling in the game, he was only 6/19 with 17 points only, that's very uncharacteristic of him.

Booker was struggling indeed while the game play of Magic works well and they take this win away from the heavy favorite.

Lucky to those who take the risk for the Magic, for sure there are bettors who loves
to take the big risk with big odds, though handicap is also decent, easy double for
those who play safe for this game.

I bet most of the bettors favored the Suns to win the game and only few who test their luck in betting with the Magic because it's really hard to bet against them especially in this game that they're facing a team under .400, but an unfortunate thing happened because the Magic managed to upset the heavy favorite. Congrats for those who took the risk!

Moving on, for tomorrows game, I'm riding with the Hawks ML @ 2.41 vs Sixers. Goodluck folks!

Bucks +1.5 vs Spurs
This is risky my friend. Injury reports says Giannis and Jrue will be out for the game, that is why the odds are questionable.
Good luck though, we cannot tell what could happen as games these days are truly unpredictable.

I have Phoenix Suns -6.5 versus the Orlando Magic.
And New York Knicks -8.5 versus the Detroit Pistons. After a bad defeat against the Nets, this young team will be hungry for a win. I hope so.

Good luck to everyone.

I thought they can still duplicate what they did last time and will still get a win even without Giannis, Holiday and Middleton Grin this time they didn't made it and clearly, they struggled against the Spurs. But my Grizzlies bet went through and defeated the Timberwolves.

It was a tough match for your Phoenix bet too, they lost the game with the Orlando Magic even though Paolo Banchero wasn't there. Booker was having a bad night which gave a way for the Magic.

Suns were probably the public play in that game, they were dominating in their previous games while Magic is in the bottom 3 in the East. However, with that win, I think they will gain more confidence as they already had 2 straight wins, and beating a good team like the Phoenix Suns only proved that they are not a trash team.

^^ Congrats mate, my live betting didn't turn out good, I bet on the Denver to at least have a +4.5.

And I think it was still on track till the start of the 4th quarter. But then the Boston Celtics suddenly went on the rampage with still 10 minutes in the game in the 4th. Jokic and the Nuggets wasn't able to respond. I saw that the Suns were upset by the Magic, tough match for Phoenix.

Man oh, man. I just learned a new word thanks to the Warriors commentator.
"Quizzical" I think he chose that to avoid getting into trouble. Grin
That's how he defined the Warriors' game versus the Cavaliers. Referees are acting strange, lots of questionable calls, and then that last part where it's too obvious that Donovan slipped and not a Draymond foul. Steve Kerr gave them a chance to correct it by challenging the call but they insisted it was a foul and so the challenge was unsuccessful. Thankfully the frustration did not get the best out of the Warriors team, especially Steph and they still won the game.
The referee association should have a discussion about this matter.

1/2 early bets.
2/3 live bets.

Here is my bet for today



Orlando Magic vs Phoenix Suns

The Phoenix Suns (8-3) is going up against Orlando Magic (3-9). Chris Paul is listed questionable, but the Suns have lots of talent to fill up the void if Chris Paul is out. Booker will be taking command and I know they can easily beat Orlando Magic.


Boston Celtics vs Denver Nuggets

The Boston Celtics (8-3) will face Denver Nuggets (8-3) at home. I am undecided with this one because both teams are performing extremely well. So, I go with the one with a home court advantage.


Los Angeles Lakers vs Sacramento Kings

The Los Angeles Lakers (2-9) will be missing the service of Lebron James tonight as they face the Sacramento Kings (4-6). But I am curious how will Westbrook be performing now that he have domain over the ball. This could be good for the Lakers. I guess, I will see if my bet is good.

Well then moving forward.
 
Upcoming games are listed below.

1)Dallas vs Wizards +4
2)76ers vs Hawks -1
3)Charlotte vs Miami -10
4)Blazers vs Pelicans -6.5

The games that are highlighted are the games that I think would be a nice game to bet on tomorrow. I'm thinking of betting on Dallas as they are just great either at home or on the road, with Luka playing like an MVP this season, I think they'll win here and cover the spread. Also, I'm with the Blazers against Pelicans, that's ML because they are rolling.
I like this, moving forward.  Cheesy
Back-to-back games for the Dallas Mavericks. First, I am not sure if I should bet because of the doubt that the Mavs will not let Luka Doncic play or restrict his minutes. This is a risk and a biased as a fan. Mavs -4.5
I want them to win this after that bad loss against the Magic. Adding Over 208.5.

Portland Trail Blazers will be riding from Charlotte to New Orleans. This will be the start of the 6 home games of the Pelicans, they better start it explosively.
I am betting on the home team. Pelicans -5.5

Good luck brothers.

I have the Pelicans-9, was that lined teased or was it made before Dame was listed as out?  Either way I'm still taking the Pelicans at -9.  Also taking the Hawks-1 at home versus the sixers.  Trae and Murray should shred the young sixer backcourt.  Hoping so at least for my bet lol.

Good luck and enjoy the games tonight people!

Hawks easily took care of the sixers to cover their 1 point but the Pelicans dissapointed, they shouldnt have lost that game.

With that being said 1-1 at least not a losing night.

Tonight I like 3 games

Knicks -8.5, big spread but at home with a day off knicks shoukd be able to win by double digits here.

Memphis -4 against the Timberwolves.  Should be a good game but with the Grizzlies at home I like them to take down the wolves.

And last I like the Spurs-2 at home against the Bucks.  Jrue and giannis both out and on the road should still be a good game but I got the Spurs here.

Good luck to everyone.

It's indeed risky if you'll ask me too, but let's see if they can still manage on defeating the Spurs just like how they did on the Thunders. Same line-up, without Giannis and Holiday too, so maybe Carter and Lopez can duplicate their performance while their stars aren't around.

Also, I'll follow your lead on that Suns spread and I'll add the Grizzlies as well while the Timberwolves are still on a hot mess.

I was surprised by the odds given to Portland Trail Blazers as an underdog against the New Orleans Pelicans just because Damian Lillard is out. It's a whopping @4 ML odds and the Pelicans @ 1.26. I understand that the Pelicans will be the Favorites but just can't imagine the distance of the odds as Blazers are currently on a hot start this season.

Fans will miss the supposed face-off between Damian Lillard and his former Blazers duo for long, CJ McCollum on their tonight's matchup.

Pelicans -8.5 @ 1.85 should be a good pick. The handicap -6.5 @ 1.57 for them seems not a worthy pick for me.

The Blazers ML was @ 4? Haven't saw that when I checked their odds last night, did that odds came live? That's too sweet too avoid mate, you could've had a nice profit if you ride it. Well, can't blame you because in my side, I also rode the Dallas game but the outcome was opposite Grin Anyway, I decided to skip that Pelicans vs Blazers game because the spread was too deep.

For the game later, I'm riding with the Suns -7 @ 1.91 vs Magic

. Also, I'm with the Blazers against Pelicans, that's ML because they are rolling.

Great win, Blazers upset the Pelicans in their home. Pelicans were the heavy favorite but Blazers keep on surprising us, even without Lillard again, they still win games, so congrats to you mate. By the way, you lose your bet on Dallas but that ML on Blazers is big enough to give you a profitable night.

Thanks man! I just got lucky with that Blazers ML, and I thought it won't go through because I haven't expected that Lillard won't be playing in that game. But that Dallas bet though, they only won a single quarter but then everything was already fallen into pieces because of Kuzma was on the loose and achieved 36 points alone.

Moving on, here are my top picks for the game tomorrow.

Bucks +1.5 vs Spurs
Timberwolves vs Grizzlies -5

While I would agree that New Orleans Pelican have showed great prospects in this season but I really don't want to go with emotions because the only reason I'd have backed Pelicans on such lines is due to the unavailability of Damian Lillard and that's just to much lines to take solely because of him.

I've decided to back the Mavericks -5.5 vs Washington Wizard as my bet for this night.

Good luck to everyone!

This is a good bet on Dallas they are playing really good and Doncic is carrying them in every match,he had 30+ points in every match i think so far this season. Currently its 44-50 for Dallas so your bet is winning. I dont like Washington they dont know how to hit those 3 points and always score from the paint. Doncic so far playing a bad game once he starts scoring the advantage should increase.

I guess it was the wrong day to bet on the favorites generally, not even the Dallas Mavericks, they choked on their lead and Wizards were able to rally in the 3rd and 4th Quarter, the same the thing Trailblazers did to oust the Pelicans.

Miami Heat were the only heavy favorites to win last night though it took them OT to get the job done, and they couldn't cover the spread.

Kuzma played an amazing match and i think that was a huge advantage for Washington,plus a first bad game this season by Luka Doncic with only 22 points,i say only because he had all 30+ points matches. Washington finally started hitting those threes and that made them win this match

Congratulations to the winners, but most people lost their bets.
Hopefully we will make up for it tonight. There are good games tonight.

I think everyone lost on the Dallas bet it was totally unexpected that they have lost back to back against a low team, although they are away from home.

After Luka torching their opponents with 30 plus points per game, he was just held again below his average here, although Spencer had a good shooting scoring night. Kyle Kuzma is a big surprised for me, not just in scoring but he orchestrated everything (rebounds in assists). Hachimura as well with a good contribution of 23 points.

Yes, let's get back at tonight, Lakers vs the Kings, an without Lebron, I think the Sacramento Kings can cover the spread here at -3.5.

Kyle Kuzma was a surprise he takeover and Lift Wizard for this win. I'm sure no one thinks that the game will go to the other side.

Moving forward, tomorrow with Kings vs Lakers that handicap is interesting. I will
check the live game if who among the Lakers player will stand out or maybe that handicap
for the kings are decent enough to follow.

^Lucky you Dave1. Congratulations on that right prediction during live games.
I wasn't able to put a bet during their game as I was away in 2nd and 3rd quarters of the game.
But damn, I think most of us didn't expect that from the Wizards. I have read most of the shared bets of our members here and all are expecting for Dallas Mavericks to win the game as they are the favorite and the handicap was -5.
Again this is proof that NBA 2023 has become an unpredictable season.

1/3 for me, I just got lucky with Over 208.5 for the Mavs vs Wizards game. It could've been a landslide of red marks.  Cheesy

Yep, the Wizards win is really unexpected, they don't have their number 1 option is Beal but the whole team step up to get this huge win. Luka is limited again, not sure what's his game plan here, but perhaps it was a second straight night that he didn't shoot very well and missing shots that he previously make it easy.

Let's move on tomorrow's game.

LA Lakers vs Sacramento Kings, - Sacramento -3.5 @1.90
New York vs Detroit - will go with Pistons +8.5 @1.83
