^Cheers Dave. You got it both right.
In my case, not perfect but a satisfying one as I added a parlay for both Luka Doncic and Giannis Antetokounmpo to achieve a double-double.

I wanted to add Embiid to the line but Stake.com doesn't allow the same game multi-bet just yet. Maybe in the future, they will also bring one like a betbuilder in sportsbet.
All-Star guys! Lines are already open so you might want to analyze it now. 
Jalen Green - Slam Dunk fave.
Fred Vanvleet and Patty Mills - 3 point contest faves.
Giannis - All-Star MVP fave.

Dallas vs NOP - I have Dallas here -2.5.  I think they can easily cover the spread, but it will be very close game in my opinion. But Dallas will probably put some separation down the stretch.

I go with the Wizards +3.5 with the Nets, the first quarter has just ended so this is a live betting for me.

Sweaty cover in the end by the Bulls as the Kings tried to cheese the lead by fouling but luckily the Bulls hold on as they barely missed any of their free throws.

For my next pick i'm digging Brooklyn to cover -4.5 against the Wizards, these met last week and it ended up with the Wizards winning by 1 but the Nets are starting to mesh well even without their key players.

After seeing Davis leave the game in the 2nd quarter, I didn't really expect though that they can pull this one as they lack another superstar. But yeah, they managed to defeat the Jazz with a 5 points difference.

LeBron is being himself putting another 30 points contribution to the team, Davis on the other hand could make a difference in the score as he can contribute more if he didn't get that sprain. Good thing it wasn't that severe.

Whoa! I thought it was done and we are going for the All-Star break. So there's 1 more day. Okay, so let's get it on for our last bets before the fun.

New Orleans Pelicans vs Dallas Mavericks - Mavs -3.5 It's kind of like a trap that maybe they will rest Doncic but I'll just take the risk and if ever they will, it's all in the hands of their deep bench.
Charlotte Hornets vs Miami Heat - Heat -5.5
Good luck to everyone.

My pick.

Game : 76ers vs Bucks,

It's hard to choose when there are only a few games on the board, but as usual, betting is always fun so I still to choose a game. I like this particular game due to the spread of the Bucks, as Giannis was back in their previous game and he has an impressive performance, I like to believe that the momentum will continue and the Bucks will dominate the 76ers.

Therefore my pick is Bucks -6.5

This would make DeRozan increase his chance of winning the MVP this season, he is a very consistent player and he is one of the reasons why the Bulls are now the number 1 in the East. I am also not betting against the Bulls as long as DeRozan is playing, and with a good center, that makes their team reliable.

I went with the Bulls at -5.5 as well. Despite the fact that the bulls have been missing an bunch of their best players (Lavine, Ball, Caruso) I figured they still had enough fire power with DeRozan being as unbelievable as he has been and he certainly didn’t disappoint dropping 38 on them. White certainly had a nice game as well dropping 31 points.

It was a good comeback by the Lakers, I also thought they'd loss because Davis leave the game, but they work hard to beat the Jazz and they really deserve that win, Westbrook played well, good for the LA Lakers.

Regarding the injury of Davis, it's still good news because he can come back soon.

^^ My bet on the Jazz was also a lost, I thought that they have the game under control in the last 6 minutes or so.

And then Rockets leading the Suns, and again, this is a huge upset, however, the Suns made a great comeback and so is the Nets. Really unexpected results in tonights game and hopefully those who bet on the underdog could come up big winners.

Unexpected results.
Lakers won against the Jazz. Nuggets won against the Warriors at their home with a buzzer-beater. Brooklyn Nets even as underdogs beat the Knicks.
Trail Blazers defeating the Grizzlies.
Houston Rockets almost defeated the Suns and most of the spreads are not covered. I got myself a -3.5 at the half when Rockets was in lead but still, it didn't cover.
2/4 for me before our long All-Star break. Have fun guys and cheers.

Well, I learn from my mistake but this time I have risked betting on the Bucks knowing that Giannis Antetokounmpo is not on the team well just because of the odds, and there are many in the Trail Blazers that are injured, but I have not seen the big picture that the Bucks is so much relying on Giannis that without him they can not win at all.

But here is my early pick for tomorrows game highlighted in green are my picks

Brooklyn Nets VS Washington Wizards

Stake odds for this game, 1.65 for the Nets, and 2.30 for the Wizards right now Kevin Durant, Ben Simmons, Joe Harris, and Kyrie Irving isn't able to play against the Wizards, while they only have Kristaps Porzingis in their injured list, while Daniel Gafford and Rui Hachimura is questionable if they could play, even though the main players for the Nets can not play the addition of Seth Curry and Andre Drummond is a big impact to the team, and right now LaMarcus Aldridge is back in action so they expect a great change in their play, I'd say they can not underestimate the Washington Wizard because I think Wizard is still a formidable team even without Kristaps Porzingis. I might go with the Washington Wizards.

Milwaukee Bucks VS Philadelphia 76ers

Stake odds for this game, 1.36 for the Bucks, and 3.25 for the 76ers, and right now Brook Lopez, Pat Connaughton, and George Hill can not play against the 76ers and Grayson Allen and Wesley Matthews is questionable if they can play, while James Harden and Jaden Springer can not play for the 76ers, even though there are many injuries for the Bucks Giannis Antetokounmpo can play and we all know how reliable Giannis Antetokounmpo when playing and from that last game Antetokounmpo exploding 50 points and a double-double play I might go with giving another shot on the Bucks now that Giannis Antetokounmpo is back.

Los Angeles Clippers VS Houston Rockets

Stake Odds for this game are  1.19 for the Clippers while 5.00 for the Rockets, right now Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, Jason Preston, and Norman Powell can not play for the Clippers While Usman Garuba, John Wall, Christian Wood, and Kevin Porter can not play for the Rockets, right now the roster for the Clippers are solid, and Reggie Jackson also giving the team a triple-double last game, so I will try my luck with the Clippers.

Nice strategy and congratulations because you have won the bet, just like you said, the Kings are struggling against the Nets. So what more now against the Bulls especially there's DeRozan and Vucevic. Coby White was worth watching, he made 31 points and 6 assists.

The suns have won today but we will still lose the bet because they didn't cover enough spread. A -16 spread was totally high for them this time.

Yeah, and if anyone watch how the Hawks played in this game, they could have bet on them again against the Magic because they easily covered the opening spread as they won by a big 21 points.

We might see a huge upset in tonights game, Portland leading Memphis by 10 points. I know that lead is not that big, but it seems that only Ja Morant is contributing for Memphis Jaren Jackson who has a huge game last game is just sitting with 5 points.

Anyone that banked on the Atlanta Hawks would have gotten a value for their money already in an easy fashion, Hawks are already up by 31 with 4 minutes gone from the 4th Quarter.

It's been a really close affair in all other fixtures even amongst the double digits favourites that are currently ongoing, all I have for today was Raptors ML

Not touching the Suns since they look shaky against the Clippers yesterday, they could easily win by double digits but imo 16 is a lot of points for the Suns since they're not that good when it comes to covering unlike the Grizzlies or the Cavs.

I'm going with the Bulls -5.5 since the Kings can't even beat the Nets when they're still missing some of their key players.

Memphis blew em out and Wolves settled with a push.  Tonight gimme the Grizzlies again -11.5 and the Knicks-4.5 against the Nets.  Then I'm loading up on the Hawks at -5.5 at orlando.  Think they take this game pretty easily.  Good luck everyone.

DeRozan 30+ pts / Fox 20+ pts @1.95 won

DeRozan has been excellent for Chicago all season long, but what he's done in the past month or so has been nothing short of amazing. He is currently on a seven-game streak of 30 or more points scored, including two games in which he went over 40 points. With Zach LaVine still out due to a knee injury, DeRozan will once again have the most offensive touches, averaging roughly 25 shot attempts per game.

Fox has put up respectable numbers himself. Since the Haliburton trade, he's gone four straight games with at least 25 points and close to 20 shot attempts per game. Bulls are at the bottom of the table in opponents' points in the paint, with mediocre interior defense, which is exactly where Fox excels. Given that today's game has the second-highest total @232, i don't see how both DeRozan and Fox don't have great games.

Looking forward to this, I was in the impression that GSW will easily beat LA Clippers. Curry has a hot night but not enough

to secure the game. For today's game, they have that type of attitude to try doing their best to bounce back and win, though it's not

an easy opponent, knowing Denver, who also have good system and players who can help in winning the game, good luck to your

pick.

I had the same thought but I said to myself, what the hell! just go for it. 
Cheers! I didn't notice that during live games as I was hooked to the spreads only waiting for the right moment.

11 games guys, there are so many good games to pick. I have 3 on my list.
Memphis Grizzlies vs Portland Trail Blazers - Grizzlies -10.5
New York Knicks vs Brooklyn Nets - Nets +4.5  No Irving but Knicks are also in a bad shape losing most of their games like recently against the Trail Blazers and even with the Thunders.
GSW vs Denver Nuggets - Nuggets +5.5 Now this will be a fun game.
Add: Will try to catch the Suns' bet live to lessen the high negative spreads.
