Yeah, I think if Zion is not going to play, Sacramento got the edge and so that bet is good and I was also go that route as they are now the favorite in that game. Pels are at 1.99 and that is a long shot already.
This is the problem of Zion and I think that he's never going to get a title if he's always too prone to injuries unless he teams up with some good players out there that can truly carry a team.
Zion was already announce unavailable on their do or die game vs the Kings.

Zion Williamson injury: Pelicans star out for Play-In game vs. Kings with hamstring strain

Ingram and CJ  should play harder to win, they are at their home court, they are in advantage so I trust them even without Zion the Lion.
What I can say is good luck to them and we'll see if the Kings will take it or not yet.

As a Lakers fan, I'm sad that my confidence is quite low if it's against Joker's gang.

They need to prove first, maybe the spread or the odds will change if they'll upset the Nuggets in game 1.
A high handicap against a popular team is an indication that the Nuggets are really the better team than the Lakers.
That's what will happen if the Lakers wins the game 1 but it's Nuggets and it is on shape and prime, to be honest.

But we'll see, as both teams are changing on these kinds of do or die matches.

Yup, there's  a big difference with the current lineup compared to who they've got last season, though Jimmy, Bam and Herro still rotates the same system but that 3-points productions with Duncan, Gabe and Max that's really works well with how they rotate the ball, and with that last season squad, the confidence is something that blends them well.

Though not done yet for the Miami as they can extend their campaign if they manage to beat the Bulls and who knows, if they managed to upset the Celtics last season we might see another one, though that chance is really slim as Boston's squad improves a lot and with how Tatum and Brown leads the offense, it's really a different competition in case Miami move up for the final birth for the east playoff.

I think they can beat Bulls tomorrow, They almost beat complete line-up sixers even with their incomplete roster while Chicago is much manageable to beat than Sixers that just beat them on a very close game.

Clutch Jimmy Buckets can easily dominate team like Bulls. My concern for them is when they are against team like Boston and Bucks with their current line-up with lack of fire power on 3 points. 

My prediction for Tomorrow is Pelicans and Heat will claim the last spot on Playoffs.

No games today sadly, so we can all prepare for tomorrow's halving event.  Smiley

Still, I couldn't resist getting a bet in for tomorrow.  I know, I know...  The Kings are 0-5 against the Pelicans this year, they're playing in New Orleans and are also given odds.  Probably should think this is a terrible bet but I don't at all.  Granted I'm a hometown Sacramento boy, but there's absolutely no way the Kings lose this game and I'm betting on it.

Los Angeles vs Denver Nuggets - the Lakers are a huge underdog in game 1.

While the Clippers and the Mavs are almost even at this point.

I'm taking the Mavericks in game one.  I think Luka and kyrie are built for road game villains.  If one is having an off night the other can drop 40.  I'm not touching the Pelicans game, even without zion I still think they got a decent shot against sacramento.  Ingram can be an alpha whenever he wants and he shoukd show up huge in that game tomorrow.

Yes, I would agree about the Mavericks are built for road games. And even if Clippers had good players and potential HOF, Luka alone is very hard to contained even if PG will be the one taking the job of guarding Luka.

And we all know that great players rises to the occasion specially in playoff. And with the way Luka is playing, at any night he can drop 40 and still have the energy to toy with the Clippers. Not sure who's going to be the main trash talker in the side of Clippers though, as Luka again thrive in this kind of situation and wanted to have some kind of mental games like he did with Phoenix and Booker like in the last two seasons.

One more chance for Miami to move forward for the playoffs they just need to win the game against the Bulls, then let see if they can pull another upset if they face the Celtics.

What happened last year to Miami Heat in their playoff run seems unlikely to happen again, especially if they'll face the Celtics in the first round. If they were play against the Bucks again in 1st round it might be possible since the Bucks seems shaky now. But if the Heat make it to the playoffs in the first round and beat the Celtics what happened last season could happen again. Because I think if they can beat the Celtics it'll be easy for them to defeat the teams in Semi and Conference Finals.

Miami already gives up most of their core players back then that contributes a lot with their good run like Gabe Vincent and Max Struss while Duncan Robinson is still injured. Miami Heat current roster even with Herro coming is not the same with their sharp 3 pointers back then during clutch. This is the reason why they beat Boston and Bucks back then even though they seem an underdog with their line-up.

Clutch Jimmy Butler and Adebayo is not enough to do a miracle run like what they did last year since their 3 points shot is their main weapon back then to kill this monster team that is so good on paint.

We have no games later.

Here are the results of my previous bets and a bonus. Cheesy
Philadelphia 76ers - Miami Heat - Miami Heat ML @2.75 Loss! - What a mess! Miami had the lead and a big one in the first half. But Embiid, oh damn Embiid. Then Batum, well, he is known for his great defensive plays and he did it again this time to help the 76ers win! A wild ending, a must-watch! Butler, I think he didn't touch the ball for the last three minutes of the game.
Chicago Bulls - Atlanta Hawks - Chicago Bulls (-1.5) Win! Defense is what made this team win and I love watching them when they do that. Sure, they have one of the best offensive weapons in DeRozan but they cannot just rely on that, defense is what makes them win games.


Won the over parlay! Yey! I don't know, it's just instincts maybe.
Tomorrow are the final games in the play-in tournament. Any predictions? The odds are not far. There are no super favorites so it's going to be hard to predict the winner.

That's a very tough assignment for the Miami Heat but they have done this before, so this is like a rematch of the last season's play-in. FYI, Miami won that battle and goes up to the Finals, they have an unbelievable run that time, let's see if they can copy that and it should start by beating the Bulls.

Betting spread is now available, Miami is -2.5 at home, while on the other match up, Pelicans is +1.5 at home, that line simply indicates that Zion is out.

I'm gonna skip the 2nd game.. I'll stick with the firt game, I'm talking of taking the Heat big, ML bet here.

I was excited by the end of the first half because Miami had a double digit lead, I said to myself, this is easy, no way the Sixers will be able to come back when Embiid ain't playing like he used to. But damn boy, I was wrong, Sixes dominated the 2nd half and Miami were unable to respond on their big run.

Congrats to Miami Backers, still they win their bet if they book the point spread as it was +5.5, game ended up the Sixes winning by 1.

Yeah, for those who took that handicap for Miami they made it and enjoy that winnings though it's almost a win for those who took the ML just a single point away from winning your bets, but that's how gambling works win or lose just needed to move forward and accept the outcome of the game.

One more chance for Miami to move forward for the playoffs they just need to win the game against the Bulls, then let see if they can pull another upset if they face the Celtics.

I'm on the same page, I always trust the Miami heat, so I thought they could win and was confident after the first half. But the home team aren't going anywhere, they were playing great especially Batum who had an outstanding game on both ends. That 3 point shots of Batum could have hurt the momentum of the Miami Heat, so I'd say he was a good pick up for the team.

Embiid obviously is not 100% yet, but he contributed when it matters most, so as he stay playing for the team, he will get healthier and will eventually back to his old-self.

Lakers -1 WIN
They just won and dominated the Pelicans, they should be able to do it again.

Warriors -2 LOSS
Hopefully Curry will play, but regardless, I think the Warriors are more experience so they'll get this win.


Updated record 1(W)-1(L)..... 50%

The Lakers pick was so easy, I didn't even sweat watching the game although it was close at some point. But man, the Warriors vs Kings, that was a big disappoinment and I believe that the Warriors are done, they need to rebuild.

Moving on the coming games, there will be a one day rest before that but I have my early picks.

1- Miami Heat

2-Pelicans.

I will be updating the spread once it's out and the reason why I choose theses teams.

I'm locking my bet on the Sixers' handicap, this would be one of the few times I have to fade the Heat because i'd always put the Sixers on a higher level if they have Embiid.


The Heat after trailing for majority of the first quarter takes a point lead to end the quarter.

Embiid looks to be good so far in the game, and Kyle Lowry is also with good energy in the first Q along side Tyrese Maxey, I'll say I like your choice with how the game have been so far.
Today I was really looking forward for the win of Heat as they are good to handle Sixers in this game but sadly again fail to do things on right time now as I check scorecard feeling bad with Heat is leading by 12 points at the end of the half-time which is impressive from them and now look like they are going to hold this all for the rest of the game as well.
After the end of the first quarter Heat were leading 22 to 23 and at the end of the second quarter they have 17 to 28 total 39 to 51.

Also took the Sacramento Kings over the Golden State Warriors last night and it was a blow out game.
Where Klay didn't have any points and went 0 for 10 while on the court for 32 minutes.
The Warriors still made it close by the end of the first half cutting the lead from a double-digit down to four points, but the Kings got back in the driver's seat once the third quarter started. It's rare to see Klay lose his rhythm and I guess the Kings got to him since they're so active on both ends.
