If I watch any more football today I'm going to lose my mind.  I did well betting but Fantasy is driving me insane. Turning my attention to basketball now. I think I'm going to take a little action on the Golden State warriors at -9.  I think that they can cover that.
we lose our bet, Warriors were not too dominant in that game. Their shooting is good but their defense wasn't that's why the game was close despite they won the game. In short, they didn't cover and we lose.  Smiley
They are dominant in the first half of the game and when Steve Kerr decided to use his 2nd team, the Kings made a comeback thanks to Mike Brown's decision to put Fox back although he is exhausted from their game yesterday versus the Clippers.
Kerr was so mad because they need to put back Curry, Green, Wiggins, Looney, and J. Green just to secure the win.
They even reached a record for the most points in the first half in Warriors history. 89 points. I bet the 2nd team was disciplined by Coach Kerr at the locker room after the game.  Cheesy

I had a perfect bet today. 3/3. Thanks for the tip @Russlenat. If you did bet for the Jazz ML, you are now 3x richer.  Cheesy (that was @3.90? iirc)
Another big winner is those who bet for Hornets ML.

Added the T'wolves bet after I saw how low the handicap is.

Ugly loss for the Lakers only dropping the game by two.  The are going to have a terrible season.  I don't know even know what that point is for Lebron now.
I stayed away in this game, I knew the Lakers are still in "struggling stage" this season.

I have a very attractive bet tomorrow.
LA Lakers is only -3.5 against the Blazers, they are on a two losing streak, I'm sure they'll play harder in order to win.
So what you do you think about this betting spread? Should I be confident on betting on the LA Lakers, or will just stay away from this game?
Dejavu like last year. I was caught many times by that trap with the thought that they will win it now and the next one and then so on...
Until I don't know how much "nth" time I lost my bet for them. I will pass for the Lakers for now.

Lakers though lost to Blazers, 106-104. So yeah, I would agree, it's another deja vu from last year, they are the heavy favorites in this pre season game and they lost easy games. And then we though, nah, this is just  pre season and everything can change. But lo and behold, one of the worst season for Lebron as a Laker.

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.

Also, we have Jazz +7.5 against Pelicans, I'm thinking of betting Jazz ML.  Smiley
Now this is somehow attractive. Jazz had been winning their games but so does the Pelicans who looks pretty solid.
I guess that +7.5 is just fair so I will take that. Just an assurance if ever it ended in a close game. Take the ML if you are a high-risk gambler.

I think I am going underdog today.
Added to my bet is for the Charlotte Hornets +10.5 against the Atlanta Hawks.
The main event will be Clippers vs Suns. If Kawhi and Wall is out, the Suns have a higher chance to win this. Live betting might be the good choice.

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.

I have a very attractive bet tomorrow.
LA Lakers is only -3.5 against the Blazers, they are on a two losing streak, I'm sure they'll play harder in order to win.

Lakers against a good shooting team? Hmmm that is a risky bet. Lakers is a poor shooting team. They can defend but if Damian gets hot, he can torch the Lakers alone.

That Jazz +7.5 is attractive. Pelicans is hot right now with Zion still healthy but a rebuilding Jazz is also unpredictable. That makes them dangerous. Both of these teams are young so that +7.5 is pretty good bet.

Two in a row already, I'm a bit lucky with my single pick everyday, so let's take it to 3 winning streak.  Smiley

Game : Golden State Warriors vs Sacramento Kings.

I think this is the easiest game tomorrow, they were embarrassed on their opening game, so it's time for them to entertain the fans and I'm thinking of a possibility that they'll dominate the Kings just like what they did to the LA Lakers, so my pick would be Warriors -9.5.

1/3 for me in my team bets but I got lucky with my side bet for Over score parlays. I took most of what I think are low total scores and then end up winning it.

I usually lose on that part but I never really stopped doing it. Now, I got it all back and more. Lucky Cheesy

Bad night for the Grizzlies and a good one for Luka Doncic. They are having a difficult time stopping him whenever he penetrates the rim.
Christian Wood seems to be more effective than Kristaps Porzingis (before) and it's showing.

My pick for tonight.

Sacramento Kings vs Los Angeles Clippers(-0,5) = First Quarter 1,85 odds

Kawhi Leonard and John Wall will rest tonight.
I will take risks for this game.

Good luck.

This is still a good bet considering LA Clippers is very stacked right now. They still have Paul George, Zubac, and Jackson to carry the team in absence of these two superstars. They carried the team to playoffs last season so they can pretty much give Sacramento Kings a good fight.

My bets for later are

Chicago Bulls vs Cleveland Cavaliers

I am taking Chicago here @ 2.04 odds. I just can't resist a good odd. I know the bulls can beat the cavs even though the bookies are saying the cavs are favorite in this game.

With both John Wall and Kawhi Leonard rested for the game, Clippers were still pretty able to get a win and your 1st Quarter bet also hit.

Meanwhile, it was a complete battering for the Bulls against Cleveland Cavaliers, Donovan Mitchell is already making a huge statement for his new team, he was at the center of it all, along side Mobley as well.

These underrated players will shine with the Utah Jazz because there's no star player in them, the only old or veteran players here are Clarkson and Conley, both are doing pretty well so far, especially Clarkson. Also, Sexton has not explode yet, he had some great season with the Cavaliers last season, he'll bring it here for sure.
Honestly, I have low expectations for the Jazz after what they did to their roster, talk about being overhauled, that is the very definition of it.
But, here goes the youngsters trying to prove something and I like to see them win more to change the perspective of other teams about how a young team actually works.

I have 3 bets for today.
Dallas Mavericks vs Memphis Grizzlies - Grizzlies +5.5 Just to be sure.

Indiana Pacers vs Detroit Pistons - Pacers -1.5

Denver Nuggets vs OKC - Nuggets -8.5 I hope this time they will give me the win.

After witnessing plenty of games on the 2nd day of the season, tomorrow we will be limited with 2 games only.

Bucks vs 76ers -4
Clippers vs Lakers +5.5


I feel betting on the favorites would give me a win, so I'm leaning with the 76ers to bounce back from their previous game's loss and the Clippers to gave the Lakers their 2 losses in a row.

I like the Clippers -5.5 but not the 76ers -4 because Bucks is a decent team, if 76ers will win here, I think it will be a close game so there's a good chance that the Bucks will be able to cover the spread. I know they came from a lose against the Celtics, but that doesn't mean they'll win at home. Anyway, good luck to you bro.

I actually took the Bucks money line here at +145.  Think giannis fights for mvp again this year and honestly think they make it back to the Finals.  Should be a good game either way.

The late game with the Lakers is rough.  Giving the Clippers 5.5 points on theor opening night.  Lebron and AD gonna bring something special think I gotta ride the Lakers getting points here.

Enjoy the games and good luck people

Well the Bucks came through but dam that Lakers game hurt, they blew the spread in the last second on stupid play.  They had it covered the whole time.  Well I guess those are the breaks.

Lots of games tonight. 

Laying on:

Knicks -7
Nets -2.5
Timberwolves -8.5

The Timberwolves I think is my lock of the night and laying hard on them.  Good luck everyone and enjoy the games!

Timberwolves surprised me.  Utah 2-0 after letting Rudy and Donovan go.  Maybe they were the issues! Lol.  Kidding aside very surprised by the play of Utah.

Last night was 2 for 3 so it ended up well.

Tonight's games I'm in on:

Grizzlies +6
Clippers -3

Both on the road and Memphis on the end of a back to back but 6 points is too much to give them.  Dallas is just okay.  Clippers are strong I thing too deep for the kings to handle and 3 points is comfy.

Good luck tonight everyone

My picks for tonight.

Houston Rockets vs Memphis Grizzlies(-1,5) = First Quarter 1,80 odds

Golden State Warriors(-4,5) vs Denver Nuggets = Golden State Warriors Win


Unfortunately, Rockets won the first quarter, 32-26.

Then Nuggets shockingly defeating the Warriors 128-123.

I myself was not lucky as well with my Suns picks, as the Trailblazers won in OT.

Just 1/2 for me, so break even for today's game. Haven't look at the next game, but hopefully we can get back strong and win more games.

Congrats to @stadus for his easy pick and win with the Boston Celtics.

Last night was not our lucky day.
I'm just going to bet on the Clippers for tonight. I will probably bet for the first quarter.

Anyway, do you guys catch the Jazz ML? That team is very surprising, Clarkson and company are playing very well.
It's also Markkanen. He is showing greatness from Eurobasket up to NBA, all he needs is this break unlike when he was at the Cavs.

These underrated players will shine with the Utah Jazz because there's no star player in them, the only old or veteran players here are Clarkson and Conley, both are doing pretty well so far, especially Clarkson. Also, Sexton has not explode yet, he had some great season with the Cavaliers last season, he'll bring it here for sure.

They will if they will continue to be consistent, they are in a rebuilding stage but look where they are now, 2-0 start, that's unbelievable because that win was against a strong teams.

By the way, here's my pick for tomorrow.

Miami Heat vs Toronto Raptors.

I bet against the Heat yesterday but this time around I'm going to bet on them.
Currently, they are in a 2 losing streak, what I'm seeing tomorrow is a team that is desperate to win, so I will bet on the spread.

PICK : HEAT -2.5

^Damian Lillard is sizzling hot on that game.  Cheesy
2/3 for me.


I didn't expect that from the Nuggets, it truly is surprising.
But I found out that what I said earlier has some truth in it. The Nuggets are not ready with Jamal Murray in their rotation yet. They took him out and they won, or he is the one not ready mentally after being injured for so long.

No doubts about the Pelicans, expect a change in the odds in their next games as they become one of the powerhouse teams.
