Yes, if Luka and Irving is going to put numbers like this, it's hard to beat them. And they could give the best duo right now, in Tatum and Brown if there will be such award in the NBA. Luka is averaging Jordan like numbers this season, and I think we haven't seen this kind of average since that era.

How about the Lakers beating their domestic rivals in Clippers.

Did someone lay a bet on them? ML is above 2.x already so that is good enough win if there is amongst us who bet on them. Tough lost for the Clippers, after leading by 21 points in this game, they've lost steamed in the 4th quarter and Lebron showing us that he is not going to slow down even if this is his 20th season.

Updated record 21-22 (49%)

Back to betting.

1-GSW -4... This team needs to improve their ranking, and vs the Knicks which has been  struggling against a playoff teams, the road team should win here. I expect Thompson to contribute at least 20 points, that would be huge for the team.

2-Suns -8.5.. Rockets are not the same team anymore when they started. If they can't win in OKC they cannot also win in Phoenix, this is another 10+ victor for the Suns.

Another spot on bet with having your money on the Dallas Mavericks. Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving wrecked havoc tonight, even though the Toronto Raptors did put up some really good fight and numbers too, but Doncic was at the center of it all, and the Dallas would hardly lose any game if Doncic and Kyrie are this terrific every night. There is no better way to celebrate his 25th birthday that with a convincing display and triple double.

Nail all 3 last night needed a big night.  The ending to the cavs game was crazy.  So glad I didn't take the money line that would have hurt bad to lose on a 60 foot shot to win by 1 lol.  Think after that they go and route Toronto tonight.  I usually never bet on a team on a back to back but tonight is different.  Taking Dallas on the money line and calling it a night

Never been this late I have missed a ton of games in the NBA because I was so busy playing this game that I liked that I never imagined that the time was late for sleep so I am really that often in the forum just posting a little, but anyhow we got

Indiana Pacers vs. New Orleans Pelicans

The game will commence at Gainbridge Fieldhouse home of the Indiana Pacers, with odds of 1.38 for the Pacers and 3.20 for the Pelicans, Doug McDermott has a Calf injury and can not play for the Pacers, while Dyson Daniels has a Knee injury, and can not play for the Pelicans Brandon Ingram, Zion Williamson, Trey Murphy III, and CJ McCollum are unhealthy and have given time to play for this game for me that unhealthy player might underperform, and will be given a less time to play so my pick will be the Indiana Pacers.

Toronto Raptors vs. Dallas Mavericks

The game will commence at Scotiabank Arena home of the Toronto Raptors,  with odds of 2.30 for the Raptors and 1.65 for the Mavericks, for the Toronto Raptors Markquis Nowell, Jakob Poeltl, and Chris Boucher are all unhealthy and will be given less time to play for this game while Dante Exum, Dereck Lively II, Maxi Kleber, and Luka Doncic are all unhealthy and will be given less time to lay for this game, so I think that the Mavericks are doing bad having 2 consecutive losses while the Raptors have 3 consecutive wins for this game I will go with the underdog as I think that the Raptors will have the edge and now that they have a certain momentum I think they will win this game.

Denver Nuggets vs. Sacramento Kings

The game will commence at Ball Arena home of the Denver Nuggets, with odds of 1.36 for the Nuggets and 3.30 for the Kings, Vlatko Cancar can not play because of a knee injury and Hunter Tyson is unhealthy and will be given less time to play while Sasha Vezenkov can not play because of an ankle injury and De'Aaron Fox is unhealthy and will be given less time to play, so for this game, the De'Aaron Fox thing is crucial for the Kings while the Nuggets are going strong for this game and being the defending champion and having 3 consecutive wins for sure the Denver Nuggets will win this game.

I'm looking for my third win in a row with the Nuggets, and i'm hoping the rest advantage is more than enough for them to get a decent lead. The last time they met the Kings came out on top, but surely the Nuggets wouldn't let that happen again now they're only a few games behind the other top teams.



The Cavs' spread was somewhat tempting against the Bulls, but it already moved by a point and the Bulls now might be the more hungry team after losing against the Pistons.

BOL, if you're going to back them. From my perspective, it's too risky when the Raptors could make this a competitive match and the Mavs could be in for another close loss.

Another day, another upset ruined my parlay.    Big tears over here but I'll be ok.  Let's see if we can manage to make some of it back and hit a nice parlay today.  Some good games to watch regardless of the outcome.

Yeah, there are games that the Pistons are improving or even just going toe to toe with the team and highly had a chance to win like this one. They just need to have the mentality and Cunningham could have lead the team, but unfortunately he missed a lot of crucial shots that game.

Pelicans might be tired, but I like their chances at +5.5 against the Pacers here.

Good day.

Washington Wizards - Golden State Warriors - Golden State Warriors (-9.5) - Won!
Orlando Magic - Brooklyn Nets - Orlando Magic (-6.5) Won!
Cleveland Cavaliers - Dallas Mavericks - Dallas Mavericks (6.5) - Won! The Mavs could've won this game if not for Max Struss's halfcourt buzzer-beater.
Atlanta Hawks - Utah Jazz - Utah Jazz (-1.5) Loss! Without Trae Young, the Hawks still managed to blow out the Jazz.
New York Knicks - New Orleans Pelicans - New Orleans Pelicans (-1.5) - Won!
Boston Celtics - Philadelphia 76ers - Boston Celtics (-10.5) - Won!

And here's a bonus.

Miami Heat had been shockingly playing great with or without their stars.

Later, 6 games.
Here are my picks.

Indiana Pacers - New Orleans Pelicans - Indiana Pacers (-3.5) - CJ McCollum won't be available for this game.
Toronto Raptors - Dallas Mavericks - Dallas Mavericks (-1.5) - I don't want to be greedy. The Raptors can sometimes be surprising.
Minnesota Timberwolves - Memphis Grizzlies - Minnesota Timberwolves (-10.5) - They are just too much against any team right now.
Chicago Bulls - Cleveland Cavaliers - Cleveland Cavaliers (-3.5) - The Cavs might be exhausted from a back-to-back game but I don't think they will let this one slip away that easy.
Denver Nuggets - Sacramento Kings - Denver Nuggets (-5.5)

Good luck everyone, have a nice day.

Sometimes I hit a bet with bigger odds, but most of the time I lose. I don't even count if I'm up or not; I just love to take a high risk and maybe have fun. But my bet on normal odds is quite bigger and very limited in choosing a game.

They almost had that win, but Strus ruined their chance. Just won! It's unbelievable; this guy really adds some good value to the team, and he is the product of the Miami Heat, who are not afraid to take shots, even big shots like that. Anyway, since Dallas is now on a 2-game losing streak, I think it's imperative to back them tomorrow against the Raptors.

Crashed and burned yesterday.  Took another 4 games tonight:

Dallas on the road +4.5. I hate betting against clevland at home but think kyrie matches up well and should have a dominant night.  30+ points.

Celtics -11.5 against the sixers.  At home and without embid they look lost.  If the Knicks beat them up with their b squad the Celtics should wipe the sixers tonight.

And I can't believe it but I bet Warriors on the road.  I hate betting them on the road but playing against the Wizards I think they will smell blood and take this one down knowing it's a must win from here on out against the lower teams.  Warriors -10.5

Enjoy the games and good luck!

Thanks and congrats on winning that margin bet from the Knicks, i've also noticed some of the weaker teams cover these double-digit spreads more than usual so I thought of taking a shot on the Pistons.

---

I'm also on the Mavs spread, as the Cavs haven't been that consistent with their performance recently while the Mavs could potentially return to their winning ways after losing against the Pacers.



Edit: That final shot from the Cavs was unreal. 

I was just wanted to share this nice win i had yesterday, small stake but decent odds nonetheless. Sabonis was the biggest sweat, with two early fouls in the first four minutes of the game, he came clutch with a monster third quarter though.

Don't have anything planned for today, but if i did, i'd turn to the Hawks guards given Trae's injury. Murray -> assists and Bogdanovic -> 3s.

Minnesota Timberwolves is at the top of the West and has won 7 of its last 10 games. Minnesota Timberwolves won its second game in a row, most recently defeating Brooklyn Nets 101-86 at home. Anthony Edwards led Minnesota with 29 points, Karl-Anthony Towns had 28 points and 9 rebounds and Mike Conley had 14 points. In other words, this was a team that was effective everywhere and in every facet.

At this level of form, the only thing that could cause Minnesota Timberwolves to struggle against San Antonio Spurs is comfort. Maybe it could also be the expanded rotation. San Antonio Spurs is a team with 11 wins in 58 games. Still, they managed to beat Minnesota Timberwolves on January 27th. Minnesota Timberwolves had beaten them with some difficulty when they hosted them at the beginning of December. Of course, a lot has changed over time and with Minnesota Timberwolves in great shape, I don't expect them to make any mistakes.

Here's my pick for today.  Not the greatest odds so I wouldn't follow it if I were you, but I needed to get a multi-game parlay after hitting a few losses in a row.  No games that excite me today with plenty of mismatches to be disappointed with.

Odds
2.06

Indiana Pacers - Toronto Raptors - Indiana Pacers (-4.5) - Loss!
New York Knicks - Detroit Pistons - New York Knicks (-10.5) - Loss! Oh c'mon Knicks. Should've blown out the Pistons.
Sacramento Kings - Miami Heat - Miami Heat (8.5) - Win! I was right! The Heat bench is always playing great whenever Coach Spo lets them handle the game. Kings tried to come back in the fourth but were easily recovered by the Heat. Man! I should've gone for an ML. Greedy smile.

Later, 11 games. Wow!
Parlay makers, this is another chance for a high multiplier game.

Here are my picks.
Washington Wizards - Golden State Warriors - Golden State Warriors (-9.5) - A must-win for the Warriors to get that confidence back on the road. Lots of questionable players on the Wizards side.
Orlando Magic - Brooklyn Nets - Orlando Magic (-6.5) - Banchero is questionable for the Magic. Simmons won't be playing for the Nets.
Cleveland Cavaliers - Dallas Mavericks - Dallas Mavericks (6.5) - This will be a lot of fun to watch. Luka is probable and so is Kleber and Lively III.
Atlanta Hawks - Utah Jazz - Utah Jazz (-1.5) - 4 weeks without Trae Young. I hope Utah knows where they should focus their defense.
New York Knicks - New Orleans Pelicans - New Orleans Pelicans (-1.5) - Zion is questionable and so is McCollum. If they won't play, I guess it will just be a good match.
Boston Celtics - Philadelphia 76ers - Boston Celtics (-10.5) - Without Embiid, I won't trust my money to the 76ers just yet.

Live betting for the remaining games.
Good luck everyone, have a great day.

I guess it's wise to wait for an update, as these two players who are now listed as questionable are starters for the team. Without them, the NYK might struggle against the Pelicans. Although the Knicks are on a back-to-back game, it's a home game where they have an impressive record. I like the Pelicans actually, but I won't bet this early. I'll wait for the latest update, and I might get a high handicap once these two players listed as questionable are officially out.

We have 11 games tomorrow and I haven't made any picks for today's game but will be getting into the game for tomorrow so here are my picks

Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Dallas Mavericks

Cleveland Cavaliers [1.57] - The only injury for the Cavaliers is Ty Jerome which have an Ankle injury, while the Dallas Mavericks have an unhealthy Luka Doncic who is in danger if he is playing in this game or not, and most potential players that can not play for the Mavericks are Josh Green, Maxi Kleber, Dante Exum and Dereck Lively II, last game for the Cleveland Cavaliers was a win against the Washington Wizards from their 2 consecutive losses last game but right now the Mavericks is showing weakness from their 7 consecutive winning games was halted because they lost last game I think this is because of unhealthy players that they have right now, so my pick is the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Atlanta Hawks vs. Utah Jazz

Utah Jazz [2.04] - Trae Young and Onyeka Okongwu and 2 players that can not play for this game and the 2 players that the Hawks needed, while the Utah Jazz just got Otto Porter Jr. can not play due to Not Injury Related problem, so for this game Trae Young is a crucial piece for the Hawks and not having him around could be a potential lost but it could also be a great chance for them but right now against a shinning team that is the Utah Jazz I think they will be having a problem against that so my pick is the Utah Jazz.

New York Knicks vs. New Orleans Pelicans

New Orleans Pelicans [1.75] - Zion Williamson and CJ McCollum are unhealthy for this game and have a potential that they can not play this game while Julius Randle, Mitchell Robinson, and OG Anunoby can not play for this game so there is a disparity for the team to lose this one, while the New Orleans even though there is no Zion Williamson can still manage to win if they have Brandon Ingram and Jonas Valanciunas to the team so my pick for this game are the New Orleans Pelicans winning this game.

It's quite surprising that suddenly the Pistons are starting to improve. I'd say that the Knicks are somewhat overrated now, considering they are heavy favorites even when struggling to beat a team with a bad standing. Great pick, @ralle14, as always. Just like you, I also won on this game, but that was betting on the Knicks to win by 1-5 points, and I just got it right with x5 odds, so it's a great day for me too.


Pacers probably was tired as they just destroyed the Dallas on the road and then came back home to host the Raptors.
Still good game but they just fall short in the 4th quarter giving the Raptors the momentum.

On the contrary, they've almost win this game if not for the referees not calling foul on the Knicks down the stretch, they take a 1 point lead and they have the possession after a missed by Josh Hart, but they've lost it no whistle, they were able to take it back and steal the ball but still the referee didn't call.

So good win for you, you take that risk.

Raptors did won with the score of 130-122. I missed this game though, been beating on the Raptors specially if they are the underdog.
