Early look at the games I'm thinking 2 games I like so far.  Taking 2 road teams today.  Dallas -5.5 at Orlando.  Orlando will struggle the rest of the year to be competitive.  This is Dallas game to beat up on them.  And I also like the cavs -8.  The cavs are my darkhorse to make the East finals this year.  Like atlanta last year.  Taking them today in an expected blowout.

Good luck e eryone today!

Well terrible night to bet nba.  Dallas loses to Orlando, cavs lose to Detroit.  Bucks lose by 36 at home lol.  Just one of those days.  Cavs were up by a good amount and aging well, they just completely folded up after midway through the 3rd quarter.  Uhg.theres always tomorrow

Crazy night indeed for me as well, not a single bet won. Dallas loss to Orlando is probably the one that hit me the hardest, I was so sure of them, lol. Anyways shit happens, but we get to always try again.

I'm in @Stadus Warriors -10.5 pick for today, gl!

Let's move on and do the usual business.

I'm picking the Warriors vs Rockets game.

Warriors are on a 5 winning streak, their last meeting with each other was a close game as Warriors only won by 2 points. However, that was before the Warriors have adjusted and start winning again, so I guess even on the road, the Warriors will be able to dominate the Rockets and they can cover the spread.

Therefore my pick is Warriors -10.5, GL!


Well... same for me, the Warriors have an interesting sequence and I believe their improvement is clear with Thompson's return.

We will have some interesting games coming soon, which teams are you going to bet on guys?

2 games already started and I am still awake at 2AM.  Grin
My pick is Bulls -6.5 against the TrailBlazers, came from a loss, I think they'll bounce back in this game.
I will tail this but with just 1 point shy. -5.5 for the Bulls.


Congrats to us, we won this bet, and actually, it's not necessary to buy points because the Bulls did a great job by winning more than 10+ points. The 3 superstars of the Bulls were playing great basketball, all of them score at least 20 points each.

Congrats to all who tailed the Bulls on this one, they managed to bounce back with a 14 points gap. The said superstars alone have led the game and contributed 67 points in total and the others also made double figures. They're still a tough one to beat even though they have no Caruso and Ball in the game, hopefully those 2 guys will be back soon.

Nets look like they will never have a full strength team.  They aren't exactly as old as the Lakers by any means but this is the perils of building a team with players who have been in the league 10+ years.  Basketball is hard on the body and 30 year old in the NBA aren't meant to withstand a 82 game season plus playoffs and plus international games for some of them.  Playoffs will definately be shaped by health.  Can't bet on the Nets with patty mills as the "second guy"...

I agree they aren't getting younger, Patty Mills is 33 years old now, just like Kevin Durant, James Harden is 32 years old, and I think maybe a couple of years now they will need to eventually retire! Kessler Edwards is 21 and can become a defensive asset for the Nets in the future, well we can not say for sure how many years James Harden, LaMarcus Aldridge, Kevin Durant, Patty Mills, Blake Griffin, Paul Millsap could play longer for the Brooklyn Nets, but they will need to try their best to keep the pace now that the team is pretty much dependent on Kyrie Irving, Kyrie will have to be safe in being injured why having at it.

Today i bet over 18,5 pts Anfernee Simons vs Chicago. Bulls playing without their best defenders Lonzo and Caruso. They will pay the most attention in defense to CJ McCollum. This will open up space for this extremely dynamic player.

Simons already had 14 points after the 1st half, looks like this is a winning bet of yours, but it also looks like the Bulls are going to win and would cover the spread. Good luck and get that win mate.

Congrats Anfernee Simons got 21 points, unfortunately, Trail Blazers lost with 14 points advantage for Chicago Bulls, the field-goals percentage and free throw percentage had gone for the Bulls, while the TrailBlazer has got the 3 pointers percentage and team turnovers for the Bulls have 7 and Trailblazer got 12, the Chicago Bulls have got the lead on the 2nd Quarter of the game that the Portland Trail Blazers wasn't able to take the lead.

Well, it really happens it is not your day and not your favorite team's day aswell, this is Basketball anything can happen, but we can surely look for a teams advantage but sometimes it will surely not reflect on results sometimes, Luck is surely still needed and it is not a lucky day.

And Suns almost lost to the Spurs too, Jazz lost as wellso yeah, it's a hard night to bet for us, Lol.

Well balance attack by the Nuggets, I think it was Middleton who is the missing link in the game, he didn't even score double digits in this game.

For sure this is going to hurt the Bucks, as they have been inconsistent throughout this week.

I was shocked when I turned on my television for the Bucks vs Nuggets game. Wow. I even tried to bet live thinking they could at least get back from a large lead and finish it respectably. Instead of 2/3 for me, it became 2/4. Ouch, one of the days.

Thank you stadus for the Bulls pick.
I input Spurs +15.5 in my parlay and luckily it hit all including the over scores. That saved me from the upsets. Cheers!

Indeed, a winning bet as Simons got 21 points, congrats @dwminer1.

Bulls dominate the 3 remaining quarters after being down by 6 points in the first quarter. Lavine, DeRozan and Vucevic played solid
to tower the entire team, without Dame Blazers, is unmatched against the trio of the Bulls, though CJ really does his best to keep the distance not that far, but Bulls really work hard to secure the win.

I went with the Mavs -5.5 @1.99 odds seems too good even if they have little to no rest and in their last back to back they went 1-1 but they fought tougher teams and Porzingis out I think they'd win by 8 or more. Also head to head shows that Mavs have been winning most of their meeting and in 4 out of 5 games the winning margin was over 6 points. From my view, the bookies are giving too much respect to the Magic as they're able to beat the Bulls recently.

My other bet will be for the Jazz. They may be bad at 4th losing streak but it has to stop and that will be against the T'wolves. Betting for them even as underdogs. So Jazz ML.
Hawks and Lakers are already playing and Lakers are on the lead. I took their ML and will just see the result when I wake up. Good luck.

GSW have a really good squad depth and if one player fails to perform, others rise to the occasion to save the game.

For example, both Curry and Klay had an average game but Wiggins popped off and scored 24 points and took 8 rebounds. Poole and Porter also contributed well.

On the Nets' side, Irving and Mills were insane as they score 32 and 24 points respectively but it was not enough for them to bring the win for them. Overall a really competitive and enjoyable game.

I agree that is why the team of the Golden State Warriors are very unique, if a player, or rather Stephen Curry is on his shooting slump again there are other teammates that could fill that gap, and regain that game momentum, although the team is badly needing a consistent Curry than giving a shot on the other players on the team, we can say that the team of the Golden State Warriors have many pieces to fill the gap Andrew Wiggins have proven his worth once again, and without Draymond Green, on the field, Kevon Looney has shone with some offensive and defensive rebounds Jonathan Kuminga can shift his role in defense, well all I can say is all players on the GSW have a potential role on the team,

Well, even though he is not Vaccinated yet, (just kidding) Kyrie Irving has risen to the occasion without Kevin Durant and now James Harden with a last-minute strained hands problem, I think it is very crucial for the Brooklyn Nets right now to have any more injuries, right now James Harden and LaMarcus Aldridge have been added as players that have injuries good thing that their next game was on February 2 players of the Nets can have a rest.

Nets look like they will never have a full strength team.  They aren't exactly as old as the Lakers by any means but this is the perils of building a team with players who have been in the league 10+ years.  Basketball is hard on the body and 30 year old in the NBA aren't meant to withstand a 82 game season plus playoffs and plus international games for some of them.  Playoffs will definately be shaped by health.  Can't bet on the Nets with patty mills as the "second guy"...

Just surprised that the Nets was able to come back in this game.
The last time I checked the score was 70-51 Warriors leading in the 3rd quarter with 7 minutes to go. It's good that your live betting didn't went it, it happens to me sometimes as the odds changes very quick and then the line open and closes very fast as well. Going back to the game, it was just 4 point win for the Warriors? And Curry just scored 19 points?
In this match, the distribution of points in Golden State Warriors was quite good. Not only one player scored, many contributed very well to the point. Andrew Wiggins recorded a team-high 24 points.
In the game, Nets had a hard time finding points in one section, unfortunately, the number of players who can score is not very many except Irving and Mills. But Irving played incredible and gave the team the energy they needed in the final period, they were so close to winning the game
Even the bench players of the Warriors are a threat to any team they face and they don't heavily rely on their star players, instead they're focusing to contribute more in the games so that their main players can have a rest too and that's what makes the Warriors tougher than ever.
While the Nets are really outnumbered this time but I'm impressed about Irving and Mills, a very close game indeed!

Moving on, I'll go for Jazz @ +1 because I'm pretty confident that they would bounce back in this game and defeat the Timberwolves on their own home after losing 4 games in a row, though Mitchell is still questionable if he could play tomorrow. Also, I would add and take Hornets @ -6 against the Clippers as they're still more vulnerable now. Goodluck!

I'll tail you on the Hornets bet mate as I'm also quite positive too that they could cover that -6 spread and defeat the Clippers as PG is still out due to some existing injury.

I will just let the Jazz slide for now as the line is too pretty and Mitchell is still questionable tomorrow and that could likely be an advantage to the Timberwolves.

Bucks vs Knicks, The Bucks needed a win to snap their losing skid right now and the Knicks might be a perfect victim. And it will be in their homecourt so I guess -9.5 for the Bucks in this game.

The line is really too high considering that the Knicks is a decent team. But I like the line, it tells us to bet on the Knicks but what would happen in this game is that the Bucks will dominate them and win by more than 10 points, I hope my expectation will come into reality.

I'm with you mate, though the spread was pretty high, I'm still confident that the Bucks could defeat the NY Knicks for more than 10 points tomorrow and I have faith that they will bounce back in their own homecourt after their huge loss against the Cavaliers with 16 points.

Bucks will try to bounce back after that loss from the Cavs,

Taking the risk for the handicap might be challenging, but we know that Bucks can really cover this if they have
a good run during the game.

If still the combination of Giannis, Middleton and Holiday jive a good blend, it's worth the risk sparing some
coins in this game, Best of Luck!

Congratulations mate, and to all who put their bets on the Bucks. Surely it wasn't an easy handicap but luckily they've defeated the NY Knicks and managed to score 123 points with a 15 points difference.
As expected, Giannis led the game and made 38 points alone with ofcourse the help of Middleton and Holiday who also managed to contribute a total of 44 points.

Yes, it was a good game for the Bucks, Giannis another monster game and then Middleton was quiet early scoring just 9 points at the half but then finished the game with 20. And then Holiday, not just scoring by orchestrating the offense with 10 assists. So at least they are now back in winning form, good for 4th place in East.

@mirakal - congrats bro, no know the drill, will tail you again in our local thread, hehehe.

Thank you mate, we just got lucky this time that our instincts were right. Grin

Moving on, I'll go for Jazz @ +1 because I'm pretty confident that they would bounce back in this game and defeat the Timberwolves on their own home after losing 4 games in a row, though Mitchell is still questionable if he could play tomorrow. Also, I would add and take Hornets @ -6 against the Clippers as they're still more vulnerable now. Goodluck!

Lost my bet on the Warriors as well last night, but that was some game to watch, Irving with a stellar performance while Curry struggles continues, he really needs to snap out of it, perhaps giving him a break might help. It's a good thing that Thompson is actually contributing positively to the team, and the bench are delivering some good amount of points too.


Early look at the games I'm thinking 2 games I like so far.  Taking 2 road teams today.  Dallas -5.5 at Orlando.  Orlando will struggle the rest of the year to be competitive.  This is Dallas game to beat up on them.  And I also like the cavs -8.  The cavs are my darkhorse to make the East finals this year.  Like atlanta last year.  Taking them today in an expected blowout.

Good luck e eryone today!


I like both of your picks, and I'll be tailing them, Dallas looked really good despite losing Porzingis early in the game last night, I believe there won't be any issues handling the Magic tonight either.
