Gimme the Clippers-11.5 at home tonight and will be taking the Spurs +6.5 at home. With the play in locked in they might relax a bit but banking on them using this as a warm up game. They are in the one and done so they should be sharp gearing up for it.
Good luck everyone!

Okay, so I am having a difficult time deciding so I just followed most of the bets of our members here. (While watching the 76ers game live)
Clippers -10.5
Good luck to us.
So, I think this is the game where Ja Morant will play as this is their last play in their home this regular season. That alone will be enough for me that they can cover that -6 spread.
Yes, I'll tail that. -6.5 for the Grizzlies. Even without Ja Morant, their bench is good enough to defeat the Pelicans. We have seen them play with high chemistry even without their leader and they can win even against top teams. I wish they will cover the spread though. My early pick. .. I got Spurs ML and Clippers -11.5
Followed both with some changes in the spreads. For Spurs, I put a handicap of +5.5 just to be sure. Someone in the Warriors might catch a hot hand so just for security measure. Clippers -10.5 Good luck to us.
My early pick. .. I got Spurs ML and Clippers -11.5
That's a great pick, Spurs are playing at home and KT will have a rest.
It's a no-bearing game for both teams, so it's possible to see that the Warriors will not take it seriously, the home team should have an edge here.
How about the New Orleans vs Memphis game? No bearing as well but can Memphis stay consistent and win the home game?
The point spread is -6.5 MEM.
Not sure, but in my opinion, as a respect to his former mentor Steve Kerr may rest his players and allow Spurs
to win this game, it's Coach Pop desire to bring Spurs to another shot to the next round, though it's only an opinion and
everything still depends on how these two teams will perform.
On the other game, Memphis is unpredictable just like how the Suns are performing. They are very capable of winning the
game and as per the post above possible for Morant to play, that's another advantage.

It is, but I'm going with the Warriors -6 today even if Klay Thompson is already ruled out due to load management. The Warriors may not be in their best today but they can still come up with win to extend their winning streak, with of course spread well be covered.

The Grizzlies, The Grizzlies upgraded Ja Morant to questionable heading into the game against the Pelicans. Taylor Jenkins has announced that he may play in one of the Grizzlies' last two games.
SourceSo, I think this is the game where Ja Morant will play as this is their last play in their home this regular season. That alone will be enough for me that they can cover that -6 spread.
I will follow you on that Warriors bet, Thompson is the only player who is sidelined in their current roster after Curry was injured. They still have more players that can play especially Poole who is really stepping up his game into a different level and they already proved that they can handle without their splash bros previously in this same season.

Put my live bet on the Bulls +16.5 at a still very attractive odds of 1.98.
Nice hit, that 0.5 give you a win as Charlotte only won by 16 points. Bulls already losing some ground, Lavine and DeRozan are playing but it seems they have lost the momentum in their games and chemistry, losing 3 straight, 4-6 in their last 10 games and barely making it to the 6th spot in the East.
Let's get them in the playoffs, not sure what they are thinking, but if this is s real struggle then there's no reason to believe they'll pass the first round. My early pick. .. I got Spurs ML and Clippers -11.5
Here are my picks on tomorrow's games highlighted in green are picks
Philadelphia 76ers VS Indiana Pacers
Stake odds for this game are 1.08 for the 76ers while 9.00 for the Pacers, Georges Niang, and Charles Bassey can not play for the 76ers, while Goga Bitadze, Malcolm Brogdon, and Jalen Smith are questionable if they can play for the Pacers, I think even though Malcolm Brogdon and Jalen Smith can play against the 76ers they will be having a difficult time because most of the lead players of the 76ers will play, Matisse Thybulle, Tobias Harris, Joel Embiid and James Harden, so my pick will be the 76ers, but I am not going to bet for the 76ers because it is not profitable but will go to some special betting.
Memphis Grizzlies VS New Orleans Pelicans
Stake Odds for this game are 1.42 for the Grizzlies while 3.00 for the Pelicans right now Killian Tillie, Jarrett Culver, and Tyrell Terry can not play for the Grizzlies, while Ja Morant is questionable if he can play, while Zion Williamson can not play for the Pelicans and Brandon Ingram is questionable if he can play, If Ja Morant can return in this game I think there is no chance for the Pelicans in winning this, but even though Morant is not there playing there are still high hopes in Grizzlies winning the game so I will go with the Grizzlies.
San Antonio Spurs VS Golden State Warriors
Stake odds for this game are 3.30 for the Spurs while 1.36 for the Warriors, right now the game will commence on the Spurs' home turf, but right now Jakob Poeltl, Dejounte Murray, Devin Vassell, Doug McDermott, and Keldon Johnson can not play against the Warriors while Romeo Langford is questionable if he can play while the Warriors still have Stephen Curry and the other half of the splash brothers Klay Thompson will take a rest and may return on April 10, right now it is not looking good for the Spurs right now the 4 of their starting players are not able to play is a bummer which they needed the most, and the Golden State Warriors even without the Splash Brothers, they still got the Junior Splash Jordan Poole, a rising star Jonathan Kuminga a defensive shooter Otto Porter Jr., defensive rebounds Kevon Looney, and Draymond Green and pretty much Warriors will rotate their players to make a transitional game, pretty much I am biased about them but you know my pick.
Philadelphia 76ers VS Indiana Pacers
Stake odds for this game are 1.08 for the 76ers while 9.00 for the Pacers, Georges Niang, and Charles Bassey can not play for the 76ers, while Goga Bitadze, Malcolm Brogdon, and Jalen Smith are questionable if they can play for the Pacers, I think even though Malcolm Brogdon and Jalen Smith can play against the 76ers they will be having a difficult time because most of the lead players of the 76ers will play, Matisse Thybulle, Tobias Harris, Joel Embiid and James Harden, so my pick will be the 76ers, but I am not going to bet for the 76ers because it is not profitable but will go to some special betting.

I'll go with the total and take the over 232.5.
Sorry bro, it didn't hit as the game was really close they played well on the defensive end. It ended up with what @Russlenat shared about their scoring history. 1/2 for me again.
I was expecting more with the Bulls rather than the Nets to cover the spreads but the result became the other way around. Nets did a good number in the 4th quarter.
Put my live bet on the Bulls +16.5 at a still very attractive odds of 1.98.
Lucky! You predicted it at the exact amount. Nice. Cheers!

Nothing really stands out today, especially with all of those players being rested, rotations, and most teams having nothing to play for so close to the end of the regular season...not ideal. Still, i've opted to go with R. J. Barrett in my ticket as i did with my last/previous player prop:
∆ R. J. Barrett 25+ PRA / O. Toppin 25+ PRA / R. J. Barrett 1+ 3pt @1.60 ∆
O. Toppin has covered the line in the three games he started for Randle. RJ is routinely getting 20+ shot attempts each game, and he's been on the ball a lot more with Randle out recording 13 assists in their last two games. He's made at least one three-pointer in 14 straight games and has attempted 20 in their previous two.
Jericho Sims O9.5 rebounds seem to be a good punt as well since he will be in the starting lineup for the second game in a row. Wizards are ranked near the bottom of the league in rebounds against opposing centers.

I might piggyback this bet. This is going to be a fast paced game and there is going to be a ton of points as well as 3pg shot. Rj definately getting 25, he is gonna shot 35 shots tonight lol. Toppin is a question mark he has been playing well in place of Randle but sometimes he is invisible on the court. Might ride this prop with you though

One more is Brooklyn Nets vs Cleveland Cavaliers. Seth Curry is questionable to play but I want to lean on Kyrie and Durant to maintain that 8th spot. They could do it, they should. Nets -8.5
The last time I saw these two teams play, it was a close game, so I'm not really confident with that -8.5 seeing how the Cavaliers are playing. But anyhow, it is still possible for the Nets to cover the spread, it's just that I'm not confident, so instead, I'll go with the total and take the over 232.5.
Here's the head-to-head results of the last 3 meetings
https://www.covers.com/sport/basketball/nba/matchup/251758
Just carefully analyze your bet, but always consider that Nets now have Irving that will play every game as long as he is healthy.
I think the -8.5 is quite fair compared to the Over 232.5 to be honest, Nets are almost fully healthy with both KD and Kyrie available, while the Cavs haven't been the same team they were early/mid season (Mobley should be available, I think).
I would have gone for Nets to cover, but instead, I settled for Brooklyn Nets ML and Total Under 241.5 @ 1.78

Anyhow, no regrets, and I do agree that Klay looks great in this game. He could very well have game the confidence and his rhythm is back. THT 40 points? but I don't think that he will still be a Laker next season though, I have a feeling that he will be traded as well.
Yes, that's one of the front pages. THT. He is actually good but I think it is being stopped by the veterans-filled team. Minutes. What he lacks is minutes of playtime to warm himself up. $10M per year. I don't think it's that much to let him go. They might keep him. Chicago Bulls are favored by only -2.5 points tonight, think I'm going to have to jump on that one ( said it's only 2.5 points though, man they've really been struggling of late, sad to see).
I'll take that too, just adjusted for a bit as I trust they could at least win against the Hornets. Bulls -3.5. One more is Brooklyn Nets vs Cleveland Cavaliers. Seth Curry is questionable to play but I want to lean on Kyrie and Durant to maintain that 8th spot. They could do it, they should. Nets -8.5
We are witness the great Jokic doing what he knows best and I think there are no more interpretations of who deserves to be MVP this year.
No more discussion, we already know the winner.
We have Phoenix vs Jazz tomorrow, will the home team (jazz) beat the number 1 team in the NBA now?
As per report, Booker, Ayton, and Paul are questionable, I think Jazz could handle the Suns.
I think the MVP is going to go to Joel Embiid. The truth is the MVP winner each year isn't necessarily who actually deserves it/had the best season. The NBA likes to spread the winners out a bit to create more excitement. I mean Lebron James has had several years where he truly deserved the MVP but didn't get it because he wins it so often. Like the year Derrick Rose won it. As much as I was thrilled that Rose won it, being a Chicago Bulls fan, deep down I knew that Lebron actually deserved it. His numbers were better, plain and simple. I think since the Joker won it last year they'll give it to Embiid this year. Just my two satoshis though.

I doubt he will be traded, unless the recipient of Westbrook or Davis will ask for him. But, considering the value of Westbrook and Davis, a trade should be one vs one or one Laker star in exchange of a bunch of players, like Westbrook being traded with a bunch of laker players.
THT finally received enough game time to show case his skills. Lakers should trade again Melo, Westbrook and Dwight then invest on young talent that can be useful to boost there bench score and at the same time to support Lebron and Davis. I’m actually already doubtful to Davis because he is always injured most of the time after there first Championship. Lakers should change the management and stop Lebron on dictating the decision for the Lakers. He is not at prime anymore so he needs a lot of reinforcement right now compared before.
I agree with that, having a bunch of old players in a team will not help the Lakers achieve a championship. if only they move and play like Lebron, then for sure they will win another championship, but look, for one season, they are just a big messed, probably the biggest failure in the history of NBA.
Don't worry about that, we will see a new Lakers team next season because it was rumored that coach Vogel will also be fired, maybe it has already happened inside and is just waiting for a formality.
Enough with the LA Lakers. I think we should talk about the upcoming playoffs.
Does anyone here bet on the NBA futures already? like NBA champion, ECF or WCF champion?
Well , even if Lakers will rebuild next year, they still won't have a team to win the NBA again and most likely a lot of years will pass without Lakers winning the title but like you said , enough of Lakers already.
