I'd mostly agree with you, they probably thought they'd have the win somewhat easily and were caught of guard by how wide the Spurs lead was getting, but you really would have expected them to keep things going after they took the lead during the fourth quarter, but it's just one of those days where getting cocky leaves you with a red face.



We've got an early one today between Jazz and Cavaliers, I'm riding on the Utah Jazz -5.5 here

Golden State starts horrendously and had a bad shooting 1st quarter and it continued to the 2nd.

San Antonio Spurs leading 20 points, that's huge already so I don't know if the Warriors can overcome this lead and cover the spread as they are expected to win this game. So let's see how it goes, Curry needs to explode and score 40++ points in this game if they want to have a chance to at least win.

They probably are tired in that game since they played the other night, after winning against the Suns, they lose against the Spurs which is not really a strong team compared to the Suns. It's okay, sometimes you gotta accept some losses and bettors are lucky if they bet against the Warriors as the Spurs are a heavy underdog in that game.

I think being tired is a bad excuse for them to lose against the Spurs, they just started very slow and sluggish but caught on fire on in the 3rd and then got the lead in the 4th. But after the lead, they shot bad again missing shots that they used to make. And specially in crucial minutes, those are bad. Steph had 27 points but Wiggins just had 11 and I think he is the missing piece in this game. He should at least score 15++ so that they have a better chance of winning this game.

The bad week continues.  Cheesy Suddenly Luka needs to sit and was announced before the game. This is the problem with early picks.
Well, I just need to bounce back again just like the past week where I did well.
Cleveland Cavaliers versus Utah Jazz - Jazz -5.5
The Cavaliers are at their 4th winning streak but I doubt Jazz will let it go to 5. It will be fun to watch Mobley against Gobert. Will Gobert change his playing style because Mobley shoots from the outside? I hope he does but in terms of firepower the Jazz have lots of options.


Good to point it out.

with Jazz when they rotate the ball almost if not all inside the court can shoot either outside or can penetrate inside.

Jazz has a better chance beating the Cavs, with that handicap fans and those who understand how Jazz play will take this one the risk is always there but if given a chance with a single digit handicap, firepower team like Jazz is capable of winning with huge gaps.

As long as they can keep the score close against the Cavs, they can cover the spread as they usually a good 3rd quarter team similar with Suns and GSW.

But if they left the Cavs got the upper hand early with double digits lead, they might have a hard time catching up with a good team in protecting their lead. And maybe we can find surprises just like what we've seen in the Warriors vs Spurs game.

When i last posted here, the Wizards were leading the East, while the Bucks and Celtics were both under .500 Grin  I'm glad to see things starting to settle down a bit.

Bulls at Brooklyn, the number one seed vs. the number two seed in the East, should be a good one. Bulls won the first meeting between these two in Chicago, coming up clutch in the fourth quarter with 42 points. I'm leaning towards CHI covering their +3 spread, but i'm going with a handful of player props centered around Vucevic and DeRozan instead.

Vucevic 9+ rebs; LaVine 4+ rebs; DeRozan 25+ pra @1.82 X

Vucevic 14+ pts; L. Ball 4+ ast @1.70 X
 
LaVine 25+ pra; Vucevic 1+ 3pt; DeRozan 4+ rebs @1.80


edit; Vucevic with monster 2pts and 1 rebound second half lol

Got burned with my 2 bets last night, damn, but we need to continue.

I like the Warriors chances of -6.5 against the Suns, no Booker so for sure the Warriors are going to take advantage of it.

Mavs vs NOP - Liking the chance of Mavs, -6.5 as well. Even without KP, I think they can win here in double digits.

That's only the games that I will bet tonight.

1/1 for me last night. Lost my Mavs bet, not even close, although I was able to get at least break even with the Warriors win. Betting on them again against the Spurs -8.5.

Knicks surprisingly on a losing skid right now. Even at their home court, they are finding it hard to win games. Tonight they've lost against the Nuggets with a huge lead.

I'm intrigue with the Clippers vs Kings game, Clippers -1.5 odds 1.89? Is this a trap or what? Maybe they are in the back to back games and might be tired and although it will be Kings homecourt, I think they can still cover this one if they played the way they beat the Lakers tonight. Of course, it Warriors again are going to play at home with the Spurs so for sure many are going to bet on them to cover the spread with double digits.
It's history. They lost against the Kings last time but that is because PG13 didn't play and now he might be exhausted again that's why the spreads are low. I'd be careful with that as Kings is good at surprises.  Cheesy
Anyway, for the upcoming game, I still have the Warriors -9.5 against the Spurs although they are playing a back to back game.

Good luck everyone!
Same. I am going with the flow again. GSW wants their streak back and they are starting all over again. GSW -8.5 will be enough for me. @1.91.
Will add Dallas Mavericks -5.5 versus the Memphis Grizzlies. It's been a long time since I last watched a Mavs game so I will not miss this one. Good luck.


I love to add the Mavericks as well but they've lost the last in their homecourt against the Pelicans with 16 points. So not sure if they can cover that against a tough team like Memphis Grizzlies.

But I will take GSW anytime of the day specially against the Spurs. If I'm not mistaken San Antonio has it's own mini streak but I doubt that they can continue it against the Warriors specially on how they destroyed the Suns.

I'm so glad that Warrior beat Suns at such a big difference because let's be honest , the last games between this 2 , Curry looked like he doesn't want to go full force. Just take a look on his trows from last week against Suns and watch the game again from last night. It's a huge difference between Warriors and Suns and I'm afraid Suns won't stand a chance even in a game of 7.

and It is OK to disagree with everyone here because it can not be a healthy Discussion if we all have a one-point view for things and there will be no further engagement on the said topic.

Exactly, we just don't follow because we also have our own analysis and we sometimes see it differently compared to what others see.
By the way, what happened to the line between the Lakers and Clippers game, it opened at LAL +2, and now they are -2.5?

Actually, I haven't proceeded with the Lakers and Clippers bet because I am busy preparing for the family dinner, that is why I haven't made a bet with the Lakers and Clippers match-up but I have made my bet early on three matches, and the result was pretty good.

Washington Wizard VS Cleveland Cavaliers - LOST

Brooklyn Nets VS Minnesota Timberwolves - WIN

Golden State Warriors VS Phoenix Suns - WIN

Although I have lost with the Washington Wizard it was OK because the other two was a win so it was, fine,

And with the Los Angeles Lakers VS Los Angeles Clippers game I was right that the game will be a close one, I think it was really entertaining to watch if it wasn't for the many three points Clippers was doing the Lakers might still have a chance, because in every three-point shot Clippers made the Lakers will just make a 2 point payback, but that is it, I think both teams were really close, I really think each team could really win this, Clippers is really lucky with the threes.

Congrats to us, that was a close first half, but the Warriors took over in the 2nd half.

Great game and good for us as we finally bounce back from our lose on their first meeting.
-6.5 looks high but the Warriors made sure they'll dominate the Suns so we will be relax watching the game.



Anyway, for the upcoming game, I still have the Warriors -9.5 against the Spurs although they are playing a back to back game.

Good luck everyone!

^^ Just -6.5 for me mate, that was good enough win for me and I think this is what @stadus gave us as a tip.

Again with heartbreaking bets.

1 more point to hit the over 214.5 and 2 more points for Brooklyn Nets and I could've won it. Itchy in my pockets. Not a good week for me. Thanks for the tip stadus, although I should've followed it completely at -6.5. Didn't expect the whole GSW team to be in their best chemistry night. This time it's not just Jordan Poole but the rest of the GSW crew made their contribution for a big win. Cheers to all the winners.

Who put a cherry on top for the Warriors @11+ to win? Yummy.

Good for those who ride on at least -6.5 for the GSW vs Phoenix game as Golden State covered it nicely with more to spare.

This time it was the GSW who played good defense on the Suns and not allowing them easy basket. Steph didn't have a break out game of scoring 30 or more points, but he has a ton of help from Wiggins, Poole and Toscano Anderson. Suns really suffered from Booker out of injury. Tomorrow the Warriors will have to face the Spurs. If Curry will not sit on this game, I think they can covered -9.5 to -10.5 spread as this game is still on their homecourt which they always win in double digit.

1/3 for me the last time, both of my picks lost and I got one tailing @danherbias07.

For this game, I'm going Knicks +2.5 against the Bulls, this game is going to be close and could go either way. But Knicks could be in a verge to win this one. Bucks vs Raptors, Bucks -2.5, Giannis is playing monster right now, although this is back to back to Toronto homecourt, the Raptors are struggling with key players in the injured list.

I liked the Bucks tonight too he is really getting into form, but I opted with the knick game under and the TrailBlazers-5.  I can see Bucks going on a good run I might start leaning into them a little more.  Layer off them with their cool start to the season.

Laid an 0-2 last night.  Knicks had 10 turnovers in the first 14 minutes alone.  No chance to play d against that.  And Spurs knocked Portland around.  Shocked at that one.  Took the night off but looking forward to seeing the clips hopefully take out the Lakers.  Might take a clips ML later if I'm up to it.  Crypto has me all meh right now lol
