We have 10 games tomorrow.
Just out of curiosity, I don't see anyone betting for the San Antonio Spurs. They don't have a popular star in their roster and yet they are 3 wins and 1 loss.
It's kind of intriguing and we are missing it.  Cheesy

And San Antonio Spurs won over top-tier teams like the Philadelphia 76ers and Minnesota Timberwolves. But people including me are still doubtful if their victories were just a fluke. We will see if they can still win against the T'wolves in a rematch tomorrow.

I'm trying to calm down for a while since I keep losing with my bets either at DOTA 2, or MMA and I'm currently 1-4 with my NBA bets (1.90 to 2.10 odds). Maybe I need to copy or based my next bets on some of the analysis here.  Cheesy

Pretty comfy night watching basketball no last second drama.  Okc giving 8 points win outright and the Suns blew out gs from the third quarter on. 

Tomorrow night I'm eyeing the Knicks at home -8 against the Hornets.  Can see another 15 point type win.  Need a little research first.
Frustrations hit them.
Draymond Green started it with a technical and then Steve Kerr, then Klay Thompson until he is ejected.
The game was entertaining in the first half of the game until all of that happened.

I actually got the opposite in both of those games.  I like 3 games tonight all home teams:

Knicks -7.5
Rockets +2
Heat -3.5

Think the Knicks blow out the young magic team here.  Knicks will feast on the lower teams but struggle against good ones.  Can see this being a 15 point type win tonight.
Good one! Congratulations. I may have been emotional there, that's why I lost all my bets.

The exhaustion in the Jazz team is too obvious, they are slower, and their energy is not the same as in their first 3 games. I really thought their young bodies could carry it but I guess it doesn't work that way. This is a good lesson in betting at back-to-back games.
2 days rest, and then they will be up against the Rockets again. Maybe we will witness a different ending on that day.

Yeah back to backs are nothing to mess with in betting.  The coach tends to give players a little more down time so it's more second squad doing the heavy lifting.  Now for today's games:

I like okc getting +8 at home vs the Clippers
And....gimme the Suns giving -1.5 points at home to golden state.  Should be a great game, gimme the home team here.

Good luck everyone tonight!

Yeah, I will skip those games from now on just to be safe or bet for the other team.

I forgot to input my bets yesterday.
Suns vs Warriors at halftime. I caught a bet of Warriors +3.5 during the first quarter while the Warriors are still down by 6, iirc.
But now they are down by 6 again and the line didn't change.  Cry

The Pelicans still manage a win against the Mavs despite not having their stars. Wow.

I haven't put a bet on any games so far, wow, not sure why I forget about the NBA games.

But for now, I will just follow the tips until I got my confidence back to post mind here in this board

And I must say congrats to those who have been winning as early as this time, lots of time for us to play in this season and hopefully everyone bettors can pick big win.

J. Valanciunas 10+ rebounds + CJ. McCollum 5+ assists @1.83

Zion Williamson (right posterior hip, low back contusion) and Herbert Jones (right knee extension) have been downgraded to out for Tuesday's matchup with the Mavericks, the team announced on Twitter.

Herb Jones and Zion have been ruled out for tonight's game, BI is still in concussion protocols and will not play either, that's three starters missing for the Pels.

Valanciunas has only failed to reach 10 rebounds in one game so far, and it's difficult not to see him doing so with the aforementioned absent players.  With Ingram playing limited minutes, CJ finished with 12 assists against Utah and should be the primary facilitator and scorer for NO today. My only concern here is the Mavs run away with the score early, and Pels don't play their starters in the 4Q. I hope that's not the case and that the Pels stay competitive until the end despite being shorthanded.


Seem our fate are somewhat intertwined for tonight, I got some bills on Valanciunas over 11.5 rebs + CJ McCollum Over 5.5 assists and Chris Wood Over 7.5  Rebs from the second tipoff of tonight, I believe Chris Wood is more of complete Center than what the Mavericks had with Powell, but I hope he gets better minutes than JaVale McGee being preferred as the starter but getting lesser minutes.

EDIT: Despite being an entertaining game, it was a really weird one statistically, and I think Pelicans having to dig deep into their played a major factor there.

For today's bet, I am riding the winning streak of these two teams.



Even though Jazz is in a rebuilding process, they are actually off in a good start this season. They are currently on top of the standing with 3-0.

The Boston Celtics is on the roll as well. Even with their head coach out and only an interim coach is guiding them, they are still top of their conference with 3-0 as well.

I am hoping that these two teams will continue their winning streak.


I'm fancying a couple over and under bets, rather than the spread, I'm still getting used to new season, and players at different teams.


I am avoiding that as well for now because it is just the start of a new season. I am still studying how the teams are doing this year. I am sticking for ML in the meantime, even avoiding parlay bets. Once I get a good grip of how the teams play, then I might start betting on over and under and do parlay as well.

8 games today guys, share your picks.  Wink

I want the Jazz to keep the streak so I am betting for them. Jazz -3.5 vs Houston Rockets
They may be tired from a back-to-back game but they are a young team so I think they can manage somehow.

One more bet for a young team Orlando Magic +7.5 vs the New York Knicks.
It's their 3rd losing streak, they might be itching to make that one win, if not, keep the game close and I might cover the spread.

Raptors vs Miami Heat are playing for the second time in 3 days, It was a scrappy game the other night and both barely able to the Overs, despite an early high scoring half, I would expect much of the same style of play/result, So I find the Over 214.5 to be of decent value and, that'd be my call.

My pick for tonight.

Golden State Warriors(-2,5) vs Sacramento Kings = First Quarter 1,80 odds

I think it will be easy game for Golden State. Sacramento can't win this game.

Good luck.

Tailing you on the first quarter bet on Warriors, I haven't tried this one for a while.

Although I have risk in the odd/even score per quarter which is around 1.89 odds.

My bet won.

I think you can try for the first quarter.
My first quarter win rate is higher than others. That's why I usually bet on the first quarter.


Yeah, I followed your tip for the first quarter handicap and it's W for me as well.

I'll go with the Utah Jazz -1.5 against Houston.

Spurs hot so +7.5 against the Wolves, odds is very attractive at 2.0.

Denver Nuggets vs Portland, I have it at over 226.5.

Best of luck, and hopefully we can get a win in these games.

Good luck.

Nice pick! Warriors won by 3 points only in the 1st quarter, so you hit it right bro!

1st quarter pick is really hard IMO, but I'm seeing your successful with your pick.
Warriors failed to cover the full game but did cover the 1st quarter.

Not an easy bet to be made because you gamble only on the 1st quarter where most of the players of each respective teams are still warming up and not that hot enough to give huge points for the team. It literally needs courage to bet on that kind of option, anyway, congrats MK-74. Close 1st quarter game because the Warriors is just 3 points away.

The LA Clippers depended on Paul George to deliver with their other two big guys absence, and he literally carried them very well tonight demanded of him but for due credits, Sacramento  Kings actually gave Clippers a run for their money.
Paul George did it all. He is a monster.  Cheesy

Everything was easy for PG, let us not forget that, even PG can carry the team to win, the other 2 superstars are not even playing, how much more if they played. Clippers has a huge chance of becoming a champion this season, they just need to protect Leonard as he is the key.

Clippers are a playoff team even before Kawhi and PG joined them. They were always a Championship contender since these 2 stars joined but mishap after mishaps cost them even the WCF. Now they have Wall in their lineup and Ty Lue as a coach. If they can keep this core stars healthy, they are again a heavy contender for the Championship. It is early but I am quite inclined to believe that it will be GSW vs Clippers for WCF.


IIRC, they were a playoff team when CP3 and Blake Griffin were still the stars of this team, after they left, the team had already struggled and had only become better when PG and Leonard joined the team. Now they have Wall, he is a star player too, so they have a big chance of winning, chemistry just needs o be built effectively.
