Cleveland will have a game today, playing against the Boston Celtics on the road, what do you think is the right bet here?

I'm thinking of Cleveland handicap of +6.5 because they are too good at covering the spread.
Does it fit your analysis guys?
I'm also leaning on the plus points at first but after checking the injury report i've changed my pick to Celtics. The Cavaliers are missing one too many players and I think they'd easily lose by double digits.


Not a good bet mate, Cleveland loses by 10 points and that means our bet loses as well. Til next time, I'm not done with the Cleveland Cavaliers, I'm sure they will bounce back if not win the game at least they'll cover as they'll still be the underdog next game and that is against the Raptors.

The cavs lost cause they were down some big men.  If cavs are at full strength they will be favorites.  New covid world we live in where every night in the winters will be different lineups depending on who is available lol.  Crazy.

So we have to wait and see who are going to play so we won't make a wrong decision in putting our bet. Sometimes, even though Cavs are complete, they are still underrated that they are listed as an underdog, and I'm really taking advantage of that opportunity as a regular fan sometimes would still see the team is a bad team.

Here are some of my Picks for the later games,

Philadelphia 76ers VS Atlanta Hawks

Covid-19 problems are here to stay and both of these teams have players that are in health protocol, with 76ers Shake Milton, Andre Drummond, Georges Niang, and Danny Green that is 4 main players for the 76ers while the Atlanta Hawks Trae Young, Clint Capela, Danilo Gallinari, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, and Lou Williams, While Solomon Hill, is out for the season, De'Andre Hunter has a wrist injury and Kevin Huerter has an illness, for now, I think it is not looking good for the Atlanta Hawks because Trae Young can not play, While the 76ers still has Joel Embiid, Tobias Harris, Tyrese Maxey, and Seth Curry that is why the 76ers have a huge spike on their odds, at stake.com 1.17 for the 76ers while 5.40 for the Hawks, there is a huge risk going for the Hawks but I don't want to risk it that is why I recommend the Philadelphia 76ers will win this.

Dallas Mavericks VS Milwaukee Bucks

Just like the first two teams that we tackle, Dallas Mavericks is in really back shape having half of the team unable to play against the Milwaukee bucks, we got Covid-19 players Reggie Bullock, Josh Green, Maxi Kleber, Tim Hardaway Jr., Luka Doncic, and Trey Burke while Eugene Omoruyi and Kristaps Porzingis is questionable if they can play, and Willie Cauley-Stein with a personal problem, while the Bucks have Giannis Antetokounmpo, Donte DiVincenzo, and Bobby Portis having covid-19 while Brook Lopez has back injury and Sandro Mamukelashvili, has an illness, having said this with the total number of players unable to play for the Mavericks I will be for the Milwaukee Bucks to win, odds in the stake are 2.26 for the Mavericks and 1.67 for the bucks.

Phoenix Suns VS Oklahoma City Thunder

While these two teams don't have any problem regarding players in a health protocol I really love the Phoenix Suns how they dominated every game that they have played, and the odds are pretty much in favor with 1.07 for the Suns and 9.80 for the Mavericks, at stake.com's odds, I really like the Phoenix Suns, I say they have a good rhythm with passing just like the Golden State Warriors, that is why my pick is Phoenix Suns.

Golden State Warrior VS Memphis Grizzlies

I think I never need any analysis on this match Memphis has a lot of players that can not play and regarding that numbers, the Warriors that is available even though Jordan Poole, Andrew Wiggins, and Damion Lee is in quarantine, and Andre Iguodala have a knee injury and might return o Christmas, my take will still be Golden State Warriors, Odds in the stake are 1.45 for Warrioir and 2.85 for the Grizzlies.

I think you misunderstood my post, I didn't bet on the Cavaliers I just mentioned that at first glance of the matchup I liked the Cavaliers then the injury reports came in and I immediately changed my pick to Celtics.

I still like the Cavaliers but without their key players, it's tough to back them up from here on out.

Taking the Pelicans -4.5 @1.74, their lineup looks solid against a Magic squad that just played against the Hawks yesterday.

That's a lot of bet man, can I ask a question? did you analyze all your bets? because if you do, that means you don't so fast to come up with a decision on what to bet, and looking at the betting slips, that's all winners so I'm impressed.
Yes, sir. I do analyze it to increase the winning chance. Then, a part of it is also because you watch games regularly to know the players you should bet for.
Like for example at my wins, Batum is known for his defensive strength, and steals is a norm for him. I cannot even count how many bets I won in his player props for steals.
The Haliburton win was because the Kings do not have their firepower De'Aaron Fox so he had been stepping up his game for the past 3 games.
21/27/24 points. Hitting 16.5 is easy for him.

Nice tips, and I agree if you keep watching the game it will be more easy to pick your player for props, not a guarantee but the winning chance is much

better. There are players who can really contribute and have that capabilities to cover your picks. Not just ML and handicap or over and under, but this

also a good way to win decently.

Quote
76ers versus Hawks - 76ers -10.5 Hawks in deep bad shape to even lose against the Magic. Embiid will definitely have a monster game on this one.
Mavs versus Bucks - Bucks -4.5 Both stars are out due to Covid. KP also questionable. Bucks on the other hand have DeMarcus Cousins who is stepping up his game. This will be good for him.

Nice selections, and with some good explanation..

With Holiday and Middleton, bucks have that competitive chance of winning this game and cover that handicap.. Smiley

Reading his reply means that he didn't lose mate. He won his pick since he bet against Cavs after reading those reports about the injuries.

I see that you are a good fan of Cavs and no surprise as they are performing very well, it's just that they don't have
the numbers today and losses 2-digit from the Celtics.

Moving forward, best of luck in your bet to them..

2 games that I like and took the early bet.
LA Lakers versus Phoenix Suns - Suns -6.5 With Booker back that kind of spread will be easy to achieve. Lakers stars will need to step up their game if they want to have a close game. I am expecting JaVale McGee to have his quality minutes again. Also, note Lakers had been hit by health and safety protocol for most of their players.

Dallas Mavericks versus Minnesota Timberwolves. T'Wolves -1.5. Anthony Edwards is still at health and safety protocols but Luka for the Mavs is also out and KP is questionable to play the game. I think KAT and DLo could handle it.

There's a bunch of players out on each side of the Tims and mavs game, I was leaning towards the Wolves but it's just too many people out to figure out how that game will play out.  I got 2 games tonight (possibly)

I like the Knicks-7 at home against Detroit.  I know the Knicks are struggling but they should be able to knocks off the Pistons fairly easily if everyone is playing up to par

Second game I like is the Portland and NO game.  NO is favored by 2.5, I like Portland if Dame is playing but if he is out I'm putting my money on NO at home.  All hinged on dames outlook.

Good luck tonight everyone!

1-1 last night Portland stayed true on the road lol.

Anyway tonight's games I like 3 of them:

Hawks -7 at home against Orlando, think Trae goes off in this one for a home blowout
Bucks -9.5 at home against the Rockets.  Love giannis at home under 10 points against a young team.  He should dominate the paint here
And gimme the cavs ML on the road against the celts.  Cavs are rolling and think they can straight out win.  They are getting 6.5 points so the ML pays out big here.

Good luck everyone!

1-2 last night.  There were a lot of players out that I wasn't expecting which definately altered these games.  This whole covid issue is gon a be wreckless over the next couple of months.  Not knowing who is in and who is out.  Trae was out for the Hawks which I thought he was playing.  And a couple big men for the cavs were out which definately affected that game.  Meh oh well that's betting I guess lol.  Will give it another go tonight Smiley

Lost my internet connection during the 3rd quarter of the Kings vs Clippers game but thankfully my bets hit.

I took most of it during the first quarter and I didn't know how it ended.  Grin
Same with the Nuggets game vs OKC as I missed the whole 3 quarters. How come they lose and why they didn't let Jokic come in the 4th quarter while the lead was cut down to 8? Was he fouled out?
Celtics on the other hand dominated the game with Jaylen Brown leading the offense at 34 points.

^^ Indeed, that was a trap, Magic won, Trae Young didn't play.

Cam Reddish though had a good night with 36 points, with John Collins putting in 26 points.

This is another reason why is hard to bet before the game, hard to see who is going to play unless you followed the official announcement of the team.

Then again it feels difficult to analyze the spread at this point knowing a lot of players are missing so I went with the Celtics moneyline @1.40.

Hawks -7 at home against Orlando, think Trae goes off in this one for a home blowout
Careful on this one, afaik Trae is currently out and likely won't play against Orlando.

I do agree, that's why it's really hard to bet without checking any news on who's who are going to play. When you think that your team has the advantage, suddenly the odds change because players are going to sit.

I am too bored to check every injury report for every team that is why I tend to just choose my favorite matches or have a large potential of winning before checking both teams injury reports, and I think this Pandemic hits hard to teams that are most affected because half of their players are In safety protocol quarantine, I really think you don't need to check the odds every time there would be an injury when the game is in session, for me, I usually check the odds once, then let the luck choose my destiny.

Oklahoma City Thunder versus Denver Nuggets - Nuggets -6.5 JaMychal Green (injury)
Good luck guys and if you are betting for other games please do check the injury reports first.

Well, good call on the Nuggets, and right now I think I will go with the Nuggets aswell, but yeah JaMychal Green has an ankle injury, and it questionable if he can play another one is Aaron Gordon that has a hamstring injury and is questionable aswell if he could play against the Thunders.

It's exhausting to check every team injury report because of this damn Covid which puts a lot of players in the health and safety protocols but we have to do it to increase the chances of winning.
Early picks: Boston Celtics versus Cleveland Cavaliers - Celtics -4.5
Celtics are without Josh Richardson while the Cavaliers are without Allen, Mobley, Okoro, and a lot more. Added Trevon Scott - 10 day contract.

Lakers had a bad game again, you guys did the right decision fading them as the Phoenix Suns clearly dominated the Lakers again. I'm looking at the boxscore, I'm not happy with the production because only Westbrook and Lebron had a decent contribution, the rest did nothing except for Ariza who scored 12 points with a perfect FG shooting.

Close game during 1st half but Suns start to rally and outscored Lakers in the second half,

There's nothing LeBron can do when he's against the whole Suns, even he'll try to carry the Lakers there's nothing that he can do now,
he's no longer the young King and the help that he needed from the team is not there or not enough I guess.

Good win again for those who love to play against this team, they continue to struggle when facing tough team.

The Golden State Warriors are known for winning with big margins against any team, whether strong or considered weak. In tonight's game against Sacramento Kings, two of their most performing players, Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole are out because of safety protocols. I'm thinking "at least"  Sacramento Kings should cover the +10.5 @ 2.21 even Steph Curry will explode on that game.

Houston Rockets is sometimes surprising too even they have the worst record currently in the standings. Maybe will try a risk betting at +7 for them against the Chicago Bulls who just came from winning against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Yup! Steve Kerr needs to pull a hard decision in making most of his players rest against the Raptors that is why I think even though they have lost we all know that they are not playing at their 100% but against the Sacramento Kings they pull off another win because of how good the Golden State offense is, and Stephen Curry is firing off threes, from start to finish the Golden State Warriors dominates the game against the Sacramento, right now looking at Jonathan Kuminga because he has a back injury and questionable to play the next match.

The Houston Rockets might be firing a great performance with teams like the Detroit Piston, and Atlanta Hawks but right now it is a high risk in betting on a bet, and against the Chicago Bulls, Well (Edited) the Bulls have won against the Rockets and it was a dominating match were Bulls win 133 - 118.
