Washington Wizards - Sacramento Kings - Sacramento Kings (-10.5) - Loss! I guess they are exhausted.
Orlando Magic - New Orleans Pelicans - Orlando Magic ML - Win! What happened to Brandon Ingram was sad but it's still a win for the Magic.
Milwaukee Bucks - Brooklyn Nets - Milwaukee Bucks (-10.5) - Loss! Did not cover.
Dallas Mavericks - Utah Jazz - Dallas Mavericks (-12.5) - Win! Covered. Whew, that was close.
Denver Nuggets - New York Knicks - Denver Nuggets (-7.5) - Win! Covered too. Nice. Michael Porter Jr. is something in his past 7 games. That's what the Nuggets needed. And Jokic another triple-double added to his list.

8 games later guys. Here are my picks.
Detroit Pistons - Boston Celtics - Boston Celtics (-11.5) - So many questionable players for the Boston Celtics, but this is a team that has strength in their bench too, so I will take that.
Toronto Raptors - Oklahoma City Thunder - Oklahoma City Thunder (-13.5)
Minnesota Timberwolves - Cleveland Cavaliers - Minnesota Timberwolves (-5.5) - Cleveland injuries. Mostly it will be LeVert, Allen, and Garland again. It won't be enough against the strong Timberwolves.
Miami Heat - New Orleans Pelicans - Miami Heat (-1.5) - BI out and they might be exhausted. I know they need every win they can get but so does Miami.
Golden State Warriors - Indiana Pacers - Golden State Warriors (-2.5) The Warriors had been playing like a great team again. They just need that energy from their bench and I bet they will win it again.

Good luck everyone.

I got some picks for the upcoming games but not so sure if my win rate will improve, but I'm still trying and at the same time trying to stay discipline.

Miami -3
Ingram is out and Miami needs a win. Miami has 2 straight losses at home, they need to prevent that streak and win this game.

Lakers -7.5
Play-in spot is very important, and Davis might return, so they should win this game, hopefully by double digit.

Warriors -5..
Same situation with the Lakers, a win here is necessary.


I like the match ups you've listed above, especially Miami Heat vs Pelicans, I'd have love to just go money line on this one, but the line at -3 is low and very reasonable.


I'll taking the Over on total points too, it's currently at 209 for 1.80, combine with Over 206 points in Cavaliers vs Minnesota Timberwolves for 1.80, together for a double bet @ 3.24 Odds

Warriors -5...(LOSS) Knicks are good but Warriors are playing at home,. I can't bet against this team when they are at home since they needed every week. Still the Knicks are playing undermanned, so I don't trust them as they might not be consistent.

Lakers -8.5... (WIN)A needed win for the Lakers also, with 25-12 record at home and playing a team that will play back to back, I guess it's all Lakers here.

Indiana -7(LOSS)/ Without Mitchelle, I think Indiana would dominate the Cavaliers like they loss to the Rockets.

Updated record 39-43 48%)

I got some picks for the upcoming games but not so sure if my win rate will improve, but I'm still trying and at the same time trying to stay discipline.

Miami -3
Ingram is out and Miami needs a win. Miami has 2 straight losses at home, they need to prevent that streak and win this game.

I won't risk any amount on your 5 leg parlay picks @0gnasty. For sure there is one game that will ruin that 5 legged parlay. It might be the Knicks vs Nuggets because the Knicks really need to push their remaining game to avoid playing in Play-In Tournament and to secure their Playoffs spot. Instead of picking moneyline for Nuggets, I gonna go with points handicap for Knicks +11.5 with 1.62 odds.

Looks like you were right. The Sacramento Kings had no business losing to the Washington Wizards though. With them being in a playoff race and nearing the end of the season there’s no excuse for them to drop one to the worst team in the league. They’re going to regret letting that one slip away at the end of the season.

Unfortunately the Kings could not beat the home team, they fall to the Wizards in a single digit loss. Also the Knicks could not cover the spread despite getting a high handicap, +11.5 is not enough as Nuggets beat them by 13.

And with this results, Knicks drop to 5 while Kings drop to 8.. Kings will be in the play-in this will be fun because 4 great teams are gonna play (lakers, Warriors, and Suns)... I don't know what team will be eliminated but on the list, Kings are the least experience team.

Rockets vs Bulls is the game of the night for me because Rockets are still pushing for a play-offs spot and have a great winning streak but also Bulls who are looking to win tonight to keep that play-offs spot safe because anything can happen in this last games.
It's a more important game for the Rockets as they are now at the number 11 rank, they lose this, that will reduce their chance to be in the play-in. Good thing about the Rockets is they have the momentum, with 6 winning streak and a record of 23-11 at home, it's just not wise to bet against them.

Suns - Atalanta should also be a great game if Atalanta decides to push for play-offs and if they will catch Suns on a bad night because otherwise , I can't see them winning.
This will be the Suns.. I'm not seeing the current roster of the Hawks are gonna beat the Sunss at hom. Although they are playing back to back, I just felt that the undermanned Hawks could not pull at upset here, also, I'm seeing a revenge here as Hawks are 4-0 against the Suns in their last 4 meetings.

Fresh off yesterday's parlay win, here's another one that should hit unless something crazy happens.  Nothing too surprising here.  Maybe the Knicks might pose a threat but the rest should be easy wins.  I also placed another side bet parlay on the Kings and Suns to both win.  The odds aren't worth taking that bet, but I think it's as close to a sure thing as it gets (famous last words).

Washington Wizards - Sacramento Kings
Winner (Incl. Overtime)
Sacramento Kings

Milwaukee Bucks - Brooklyn Nets

Now in this season I am betting regularly on the NBA games and also checking many things here on this thread as well which are giving good response today I am going to check this all with my bet even odds are not good but still this worth to give a try hopefully things will be good for me, and we will have profit from this as well.
Most of the time I have problem with the Atlanta Hawks because every time I bet on them response is never been ideal like few days back I lost my parlay as I was against them and Hawks win the game in extra time and same happen few time in past today hopefully they will be on my side.

Another 2-1 for last night on the right side of the books last couple days.  Will try to keep it going here are my picks for tonight so far:

Knicks -6.5.  Might be a Homer bet but last 5 games keeping the opponent under 100 points, this one should be tight so long as everyone is full up playing.

Pacers -6.5. Cavs are down a couple of guys and I really thing the Pacers are gonna make a run at the 4/5 hole position here.  They are better than their record suggests.

And gimme the Celtics-15.5 here at home.  I know Detroit took them to OT this year but Celtics are steam rolling.  I expect a massive blowout.  130-107 type game.

Good luck everyone.

Another 2 and 1 night.  Knicks were dicey once OG was out but they have been playing great team ball lately.  Cavs game shocked me but hey anything can happen...and Boston they are just straight rolling through the season.  Going to be tough for anyone to beat them in a 7 game series.

Tonight I have just one pick and laying it all down on...

The Suns-9.  At home and with a relatively healthy squad I like their shot here at under double digits.



Nailed the only bet last night.  While most of my time will be neck deep in the ncaa tourny I laid in 3 bets for tonight.

Bucks -9.5 at home against the Nets.  Last night they played Boston hard without giannis.  Think they roll the Nets here in a 130-115 type of blowout.

Kings-11.5 at the Wizards.  Don't like long road games but the Wizards are awful.  Kings should roll

Jazz +14.5 vs Dallas.  I like Dallas to win here but expect the Jazz to put up a fight.  Big spread hoping for a backdoor cover from the Jazz.

Good luck and enjoy the games (especially the ncaa tourny)

Cleveland Cavaliers - Miami Heat - Cleveland Cavaliers (-2.5) Loss! Miami Heat fought strong, damn my instincts told me to bet for them but I went against it. Grin
Detroit Pistons - Indiana Pacers - Indiana Pacers (-7.5) Win!
Toronto Raptors - Sacramento Kings - Sacramento Kings (-9.5) Win!
Boston Celtics - Milwaukee Bucks - Milwaukee Bucks (12.5) Win! I thought so, the Bucks would somehow fight back and they did.
Portland Trail Blazers - Los Angeles Clippers - Los Angeles Clippers (-10.5) Win! Finally, the Clippers win.

7 games later. Here are my picks.

Washington Wizards - Sacramento Kings - Sacramento Kings (-10.5) - The Kings will try to put a gap with the triple tie. 6th, 7th, and 8th.
Orlando Magic - New Orleans Pelicans - Orlando Magic ML - This was a hard choice but the Magic had been playing great.
Milwaukee Bucks - Brooklyn Nets - Milwaukee Bucks (-10.5) - After that defeat, it's time to win again.
Dallas Mavericks - Utah Jazz - Dallas Mavericks (-12.5) - This is too much of a spread, I wish they could cover.
Denver Nuggets - New York Knicks - Denver Nuggets (-7.5) - Nah, I don't want to underestimate the Knicks that much, the Villanova boys had been playing great.

Good luck everyone, have a great day.

At this point, it's easier to just select a high spreads like -10 and up as most of the time they'll cover the spread. Typical bettors would probably choose the underdog with a high handicap without realizing that bookies cannot be outsmarted, they set this line like a trap, so either we ride with them or just follow the public perception. I'll choose the big favorites tomorrow with a high spread.

Pacers -9.5 -
Boston -10.5
Kings -11
OKC -15
Warriors -11
Clippers -12
Suns -9.

let's see how many will will win...

I thought I always had it perfect since these favorites really have a good start (except for the OKC), but ending with 5 out of 7 is not bad at all. As I mentioned yesterday, I'm more into favorites as the playoffs is approaching, so I'm still following my strategy with my current picks.

Kings -11
Bucks -10
Dallas -14
Denver -9.5
Suns -9.5

The Heat vs Cavaliers was play and catch up game like I anticipated, I expected the Heat to be the team playing most of the catch up but it was the Cavaliers that did for most of the game, they left quite late into the 4th Quarter before making my bet a win but that was due to the Cavaliers taking the lead and the Heat had to figure something out, but thanks to an home coming hero in Terry Rozier great statement in the last one minute plus change.
I also caught the end of the Cavs match thinking they'd seal the deal in the final minute, but Rozier came in clutch in the last few possessions.

Your Sacramento Kings - Raptors Under was also an easy win for you, the Raptor could hardly keep up the pace against the Kings.
Thanks, I thought it'd get close when they started with a 59-point first quarter, and then the Raptors made my bet look better as they started to brick half of their shots in the next three quarters.

The over ticket I had for the Magic game yesterday somehow landed as a winner with the total ending on exactly 204 points. I had low expectations after their slow first quarter until they decided to speed things up, dropping 50+ points in the next quarter.

I'm aiming for three in a row with this next bet (under 233.5) on the Kings vs. Raptors. I see the Raptors barely hitting a hundred on their recent losses and the Kings can always slow down if they can start to pull away in the first half.

It's hard to pick. The upper ranks are battling the underdogs. Most lines are -10 upward.
I agree, the only decent one is probably the Cavs match, but it's still risky when the Heat can capitalize on the injuries.

8 games later. Nice. Here are my picks.
Cleveland Cavaliers - Miami Heat - Cleveland Cavaliers (-2.5) - So many injured players on both teams, I guess I'll just take the home team and trust LeVert and Garland to step up their game.
Detroit Pistons - Indiana Pacers - Indiana Pacers (-7.5) - This should be easy.
Toronto Raptors - Sacramento Kings - Sacramento Kings (-9.5) - The Kings need this win to stay in the 6th spot. Might as well blow them out to have a good rest because they will be playing back-to-back road games.
Boston Celtics - Milwaukee Bucks - Milwaukee Bucks (12.5) - Yeah, I'll take that. Giannis is questionable but this is still a decent team.
Portland Trail Blazers - Los Angeles Clippers - Los Angeles Clippers (-10.5)

It's hard to pick. The upper ranks are battling the underdogs. Most lines are -10 upward.
Anyway, good luck to everyone, I might just try during live games for the remaining ones.

I like a couple of these match ups, I'll be going with the total points spread instead of ML or Handicap

Miami Heat and Cavs being the match with lowest Over 206.5 line @ 1.87 is the most appealing to me, the Cavs are still without Donovan Mitchell but that's hasn't rendered a their offensive awful, so I'll expect them to give the Heat a run for their money, the Heat are without a couple their best defensive players in Bam Adebayo and Kevin Love, so I think the Cavs should have better scoring efficiency and the Heat forcing a keep up momentum.

Portland Trail Blazers vs Los Angeles Clippers
The LA Clippers have fallen off the top of the Western Conference with their recent slump, and this calls for a serious turnaround effort. Especially in their 17 point loss to the Atlanta Hawks, the Clippers didn't put up much of a fight. This shows that losing is inevitable. It's worrying that no Clippers player other than Leonard and George reached double digits and James Harden didn't perform as expected. However, the LA Clippers 2-0 lead over the Portland Trail Blazers this season and their dominance in the last seven games between the two teams could give the LA Clippers a mental edge in this game.
Portland, on the other hand, struggles with ball sharing and falls short. While the recent consistent performances of Anfernee Simons and Deandre Ayton have been promising, Portland is well below league level. In this two game series, which is critical for both the Clippers and the Blazers, I think the Clippers will win based on their in form players and past superiority.

A ton of mismatches today so there wasn't really much to do but bet the favorites.  I left out a couple of games that I thought could possibly go either way but for the most part these games should all go the way we think they will.  It would be a pretty big upset if one of these games was a loser, but with this many games in a parlay it's always a risk.  Good luck!
