The Jazz is a well-rounded team consisting of both veterans and young players who have a natural feel to the game. They have developed their chemistry better compared to the line-up of Lakers. While the latter team may consist of veteran all-star players, their chemistry seems to fell short as they struggle to connect their plays and naturally create openings for other players to capitalize on.

Unfortunately, Westbrook has been taking too many shots that can also be considered questionable. Most people have bashed and criticized his play but I do think that he will be able to find his sweet spot once he develops the chemistry more with his team.

Jazz just -5.5? That didn't sound right. I mean, what I said "Jazz just". 
I'll tail it. No doubt about that. 2 games are already playing while I am writing this. That's way early in my timeline. It's just 2:00 AM here and I am near taking my nap or sleep if all goes well.
Nets with James Harden and Kyrie Irving. No Kevin Durant, Millsap, Johnson, and Claxton. They are undermanned but that's still a possible win against the Cavaliers if they will be red hot in outside shooting. I'll check the roster first before taking it. Just to be sure.

San Antonio Spurs vs Phoenix Suns - Suns -4.5

Here we go again, I'll be taking this one. Rudy Gobert is back for the Jazz and he put some decent numbers last night, while the Lakers inconsistency is at it's peak yet again.

Elsewhere we've got some really early fixtures for today, and I'll be taking the Celtics -3.5 vs New Orleans Pelicans.

GL!

Minnesota Timberwolves VS Golden State Warriors SCORE 119 - 99 - LOST

Denver Nuggets VS Utah Jazz SCORE 102 - 125 - WIN

The Golden State Warriors is keeping the pace and the score is just kept back and forth until the 3rd quarter when the Timberwolves have dominated the Warriors and outscored them in their zone, well for me it is really a good game a close game at first, but yes I surely am right that the Warriors could struggle without Stephen Curry, and with the defense without Draymond Green, Karl-Anthony Towns just crashing the Golden State Warriors defense just like that while racking up 3 points play every time he goes to the ring,

Well from start to finish, the Utah Jazz stayed dominant against the Nuggets, and just like their other 2 recent games where Utah Jazz just keeps on pouring those 3 point shots, it really happens again, it's like history repeats itself, for this game too much player getting those 3 point shots connects wins the game, even though I have lost on the Golden State bet, I surely nail this bet to get back what I have lost on my first bet.

Might? Having some second thoughts there mate? Just do it as it could be an easy win for the Jazz here, or instead this will be a big blowout because right now the Lakers are having some huge difficulties on their defense and their offensive isn't that too tough as well and also their moves are quite predictable. As you said, we have the data to back what our instinct says, so for me I will bet on Jazz -4.5 and there's really no need to make things difficult.

This is their first meeting this season if I'm not mistaken, so it's hard to predict on who will win, but as like what you are saying, I also see that the Lakers have some trouble with their chemistry, so a full force Utah Jazz is too strong for them, might be another blowout win by the Jazz.

^^ I might tail you on this one, when the Lakers is against a team that is on top or at least has a better winning record, they usually lose the game.

So I agree with this bet, no need to overcomplicate things, maybe our instinct or at least some data that can really help us to beat against the Lakers vs the Jazz.

Nice one, I see some happy bettors here.

Let's start betting for the upcoming games.
Game: Jazz vs Lakers.

I know that the Jazz are going to play a back to back game but they are hungry for a win, so I think they can beat the struggling Lakers who lost to the Nuggets by a very huge margin.  I don't want to overthink it, I will stick with my instinct and bet on the Jazz on the road.

My pick: Jazz -5.5

I also have the same bet with you mate, -11.5 for me. I said it might be difficult for the Suns to cover but in the end they can really do it and that's what happen here, even if they played on the Pistons homecourt, their competitiveness is very high specially Booker. It's also a high scoring game which really gives the Suns the advantage because this is their type of play.

So congrats to everyone who won in this game.

I tried to watch this game at 2:00 AM in the morning but my eyes are giving up so I need to stop. Just finished the first quarter and it was just a 4 point lead. I didn't imagine it could go far becoming a blowout game at 135 points.  Most of us won that pick so, Cheers!

1/2 for me as GSW loss against the T'wolves. They are outnumbered and Klay is still not back as the Klay Thompson that we had known. Giving him more time to create that chemistry with the new guys then maybe they could start the new winning streak again.

Congrats mate, spread was indeed big but they covered it and dominate the Detroit Pistons. The result was 135-108 in our favor.
As expected they didn't had a hard time and certainly that wasn't tough one beating the Pistons, congrats again! Now the Suns are standing tall in the league with an almost .800 win percentage.

Yes, I think Booker is one reason one the Suns are so dominant this year. Just in the first quarter alone, you can see Booker is really hot and wanted to win this game.

And the Pistons can't stop him that's why you can see in the second quarter that they started to run and then it was a blow out. I thought though in the first half that they won't go Over with the score, but then again, Phoenix has so many offensive firepower that the Over was covered enough.

In my observation, Phoenix Suns always covered the handicap in their several games.

That's a good worthy bet for the dominant Phoenix Suns. They are putting up over 100+ points per game with a winning margin of over 10+. That's why against lower teams in the standing, we can expect they can cover it with an average of 15+ points. And with my own calculation, around 7+ to 8+ winning margin against the top teams.

What crazy stats by one of the most offensive teams in the league right now.

If it's a trap then the odds for Nuggets shouldn't be on that number. Either way, Utah Jazz is now back on their usual starters. But the way Nuggets are playing, not just their big win against the Lakers, they can always match with the Favorites.

I'm also thinking about betting on Nuggets but maybe a point spread with them to the range of +4 to +5 will be a much safe bet.

Congrats on the win. Phoenix beat the Pistons with a score of 135-108 with a dominant performance every quarter.  The spread is high but the win was easy, Booker had a huge 30 points game and the rest are supporting him as always. I could have followed that bet if I trust them to cover the high spread.

I guess it's because Gobert is back in the starting lineup and same goes for Gay, then on top of that you have the Nuggets playing on a back to back.

Taking the Timberwolves as well since no Curry and Green, gonna continue to fade the Warriors on the road until they become a bit more consistent.

Well, it's just that I surely still have faith in the Golden State Warriors, after all, they are my favorite team, and the Golden State Warriors is currently developing future stars, even though Stephen Curry doesn't do much in the Chicago Bulls game they have spare players that could surely put on that role, they have Andrew Wiggins, Otto Porter Jr., Jordan Poole that is still at 22 years old, Damion Lee, and the players that explode that night Jonathan Kuminga that still at a very young age of 19 years old, If you will look at that game he sure did something extraordinary, well all players of the Golden State Warriors right now have their best tools they can give for the team, and right now Stephen Curry is still in his Shooting Slump, by when he does recover from it, the Golden State Warriors will surely explode for every game they will play, and don't forget that insane pass from Andre Igoudala,

My quick picks today, I haven't caught up to the Piston VS Suns match but I already bet for that game and have gone with the Phoenix Suns,

Minnesota Timberwolves VS Golden State Warriors

Right now Stake odds are 1.55 for the Timberwolves and 2.55 for the Warriors, I think the Timberwolves have the slight advantage on the odds because Stephen Curry had a hand injury, and in addition, Draymond Green, James Wiseman, Gary Payton II still can not pay dues to their individual injuries, and I think many are thinking because of their previous losses, this might turn out to be a lost aswell because Curry can not play, while the Timberwolves have Jordan McLaughlin on covid, but their main rosters are good and ready to go, but despite this, my pick still goes on the Golden State Warriors, I am praising their spare players, and because Klay Thompson is there I think the Golden State Warriors will do well against the Timberwolves, so I will go against the odds, and get myself a great deal of profit when the Warriors win.

Denver Nuggets VS Utah Jazz

Stake odds 2.85 for the Nuggets and 1.45 for the Jazz in this pick this is a crucial decision, right now the Nuggets seems to have problems with players although their main players are still intact, Jeff Green and Nikola Jokic could play Jazz Hassan Whiteside can not play but still, the Jazz can make a clear rotation with their players, I am really torn between these two teams, but after looking at these two teams game history their recent 2 game and Utah Jazz win them, so I think history can repeat so I am taking the Utah Jazz side here, and going with the odds,

I'm not comfortable with the Nuggets bet, they just beat the Lakers and now they are the underdog. Seems like there's something wrong with it, it could be a trap so I'm staying away from it. However, the Wolves spread seems reasonable, so I'm on the same side with you.

I'm with you on this bet.  They are on the second game of a back to back and the Jazz are a real good team but getting 5 points at home is too much for me not to take.

Also gimme the Timberwolves-4.5 against the Warriors.  Warriors have a bunch of people out and the Wolves are actually better than their record gives them credit for.  Wolves should easily handle an undermanned Warriors team tonight.

Utah Jazz is coming from a 3 game losing streak where their big loss this season happened in their last game against the Cavaliers. Utah Jazz is also in 3 games losing streak playing in road games, all being downed by a double-digit margin. Denver Nuggets which struck down the Los Angeles Lakers by 36 big points last game, will host the game against the Utah Jazz later.

But despite those losing streaks, Utah Jazz is Still the Favorite to win in that game but I will bet against them.

Nuggets @ 2.7
