Kelvin Durant was listed as questionable for the game due an Achilles issue, but now as per rotoworld, he's sitting the game out. Little wonder the line has moved, it's current at -6

Yup. https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/29277/kevin-durant

Kevin Durant will get the night off vs. the Cavaliers on Friday, as expected.
The Nets will list him as out for "Achilles injury recovery." KD played 50 minutes back on Wednesday, so sitting him this evening means he will be a full go vs. the Heat on the second night of the back-to-back. Jeff Green has been playing outstanding for the Nets recently and is worth streaming, and Joe Harris should get a short-term boost as well.

Therefore, I'm betting on the Cavaliers here +6.5. Durant was explosive on their last game's loss, I think Cavaliers are capable of showing the same intensity in the game, if Nets will bounce back and win, I think 6.5 is too high for them to cover knowing how Cavaliers played in their last game.

I'm betting on the nets still.  They are a score waiting to happen with or without kd although I could be wildly wrong.  Have some other bets id like feedback on

1) nets -6.5
2) Houston +3
3) knicls +4
4) pacers -5
5) pacers/Orlando under 216.5

This includes today’s Nets game if you missed the big 3’s first game you can see their 2nd.

Anyone see Draymond get kicked out of the game for yelling at his teammate last night?

Reminder that yahoo mobile is streaming games for free still. This includes today’s Nets game if you missed the big 3’s first game you can see their 2nd.

My bet for tonight will be on Utah Jazz -5.5 vs Pelicans, Jazz are 6 games winning run and it includes a win against the Pelicans, I'll be backing them to cover again tonight.

Bang this last night! It really was an interesting game and Zion as usual was at the center of the show , yet again! I had a strong doubt about my bet after the Pelicans had taken a 12 point lead in the first quarter but Jazz recovered pretty well  Smiley


5.20 for Cavs vs Nets. Can Sexton repeat that monster game he did against the Nets?

Good luck, I don't want to jinx it... but I think the Nets will be more prepared and uhmm.



I'll be having my bets on Dallas Mavericks vs San Antonio Spurs, I'm backing the Mavericks to win and cover the spread.

PICK Dallas Mavs -2.5


There's a lot of games tonight, so I'll be giving my BetBuilder another shot.

11 games later.
Big win for whoever has the courage to bet for underdogs.
7.80 for Thunders vs Clippers.
5.20 for Cavs vs Nets. Can Sexton repeat that monster game he did against the Nets?
I'll take the Cavs ML but not the Thunder for my wild bet.
Nuggets ML vs Suns.
Goodluck.

Friday games.

Just like a repeat of games in the previous days, will it have the same outcome?

Brooklyn Nets at Cleveland Cavaliers (+9.5)
Boston Celtics at Philadelphia 76ers (-5)

What are your thoughts here, Lakers are +2 points on the road, will Bucks bounce back from their lose against the Nets?

I will skip for any handicap at both teams but rather go on Totals.

+2 points Handicap of Lakers are around @1.85 so will replace it instead on the same odds of @1.85 at Over 227 as both teams are averaging high scoring points, win or lose. I'm seeing a heated exchange here on their offense (looking for a minimum of at least Over 220 but looks like sportsbook thinks the same too).

I agree the over on these should hit fairly easily on the Lakers and bucks game.  Its going to be a fast pace game only thing stopping the over is scoring droughts for either team.  Or a blowout one way or another where backups are in most of the second half but I dont see that happening here.

Looks like it will hit the over, in play line is over 231.5 now, higher than the pregame betting odds. It has been a very competitive game thus far, no team has dominated the game yet, what's happening is they are just exchanging games and this gives some thrill because the handicap is very low.

I love to avoid this kind of games, even though I'll surely watch it... both team are capable of winning the game, but James is listed as questionable, If that should be the case, I'd be inclined towards the Bucks covering the -2 spread.

Why not go with +1? I think the handicap is too small, if Lakers will win then might as well bet on them to win straight up. I like the consistency of the Lakers, until they lose against the GSW at home and now they are travelling on the road to play with Giannis? This is very interesting, I think the home team here will win.

The nets should close this game already. It's been OT after OT and Sexton keeps putting Cavaliers back in the game. Another 5 minutes still to play. Hopefully the big 3 ends up winning their first game together.  If Cavaliers wins this game, they have Sexton to thank. 42 points in this game already.

Edit: Nets lost and same with my bet. Lost the bet but had so much fun watching the game.

Unbelievable, they are -10.5 and they lose by 12 points.. How good the moneyline for the Cavaliers, who did bet on the ML?
No bet is really safe, even the weakest team in the NBA against the stronger, you cannot tell they'll win easily.

That's a very determine Cavs out there.

Went to second OT and I was thinking that Nets already have this game, I still can't believe that last 3 point that leads the Cavs into 2nd OT, though it should be a much earlier win if the ref did not call it a foul from Harden as it's clearly a travelling violation. Fair enough for Cavs to win this game.

4) Houston +5.5

I don't like this one, Wall is still out, probably same result, Rockets would still lose.
Suns lose 2 games in a row, they'll probably bounce back and win this one, and I think they'll cover that point spread as well.

I'm on the other side @wheelz1200

Yeah I got ya.  Taking a flyer on this one.  Figure they will start playing with a chip on their shoulders about the whole debacle.  I will goes as far to say they will win so maybe a stab at the money line on this one.  This is one im not super confident about but hey...any given (sun)day anything can happen.

Missed by the half a point.  Houston played well just not good enough, one olidipo shot at the end to miss the spread.  Funny how the game goes 47.5 minutes and the spread is all riding on the last shot anyway.  Went 3-2 last night so not bad.  Only 3 games on tonight already leaning Lakers only giving a point that seems like a must bet.

I'm 0-6 when betting for the Nets and seeing the +10.5 handicap for the Cavs, i thought at first it was attractive but never got the courage to pushed the button lol, how much more for the ML  Grin.

For those who are Nets haters, this is your opportunity as bookies will put tempting odds if they are against below 500 teams like the Cavs.



As what I have observed, Nets does not cover when they are the favorites but they win and cover when they are the underdog, just like their game against the Bucks. You are right, people should go against the Nets in ATS, that's an automatic win. lol

Their ATS record is 7 of 9. that stats means they are unreliable.

It was sure an interesting game to see, both teams played really great and they were very close chances for either team to win in the final seconds of regular time and as well as in the first OT, what a game from Sexton, would I be exaggerating to say he won this for this Cavaliers ?

No, you're not. Sexton was phenomenal last night and nothing short of brilliant. with less than 8 seconds till end of regular time, Nets were ahead with 3 points so I concluded there's no way Cavs will come back until I saw Sexton throw the final 3 point shot to put them back in the game. It's worth noting that Cavaliers's defense was top notch.

Unbelievable, they are -10.5 and they lose by 12 points.. How good the moneyline for the Cavaliers, who did bet on the ML?

I didn't really pay attention to Cavaliers ML but IIRC, it was priced some way between @5.75 to @6.  Nets didn't win, let alone cover the spread.

I usually go for wild bets but I didn't for this one. I didn't have the courage to do so. 
It was -10.5 for Nets to get a regular almost x2 win.
I forgot the number of how much the odds were. 8+ maybe?

Sexton and Osman did a great job in their offensive battle against the trio.
Triple double for Harden and 2 more assists for KD to achieve it but yet Cavs still win.  Grin
