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.

My pick : Philadelphia 76ers -5.5 Good luck everyone!

76ers should be a good bet, I suppose  Celtics struggles will continue again tonight, but 76ers still missing a number of stars themselves
could the Under also be worth some punt ?

That's was a win! It got really close with some minutes left, but big a monster performance from Joel Embiid, I'm glad I didn't go for the Under (I wouldn't have with Embiid back in the lineup, though)

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 ?

J.Allen and T.Prince playing for Cavs vs. their old team, Kyrie's first game back after missing a bunch, first look of Nets big 3 playing together, this should be a good one but i'm not taking bets here, gotta see rotations/minutes/player roles first.

Not really the first we were expecting, was it ? The good thing is that it's really easy for the Nets to closethe gap with a few possession even after quite a gap. I'm still of the opinion that it's going to take a while before they big 3 get unstoppable.

Utah Jazz duly delivered and covered the spread, but my betbuilder went side ways, just short by a rebound from Zion Williamson

Damn, not again, these prop bets can be awfully frustrating sometimes when you get 4-5 selection right, i see Zion didn't play the last couple of minutes in the 4Q, too big of a lead for Utah, i guess?

Yeah! I'm sure you can relate well on this, Zion was replaced with about 3 minutes left of the clock, I'd assume it was because the game already was a lost cause.

I didn't have my usual player props as i was busy and couldn't watch any of the games last night but my side bets came through, refreshing after going 0-3 the previous night, everyone and their mamas was on the Jazz spread, i was too.  Grin

Gl to those having bets, i will take the day off and just enjoy the games, not stressing over player stats and whatnot for once  Smiley Cheesy

I'm also taking a break for tonight, I could use one  Wink

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.

1) Knicks -2
2) Atlanta -6.5
3) Nets bucks under 239
4) Miami -6
5) Lakers -8.5

Only 2 games on tonight so here is my picks

1) Denver-10
2) Denver game over 220
3) utah -6
4) utah game over 217.5

Thoughts?  Don't feel good about either of the 2 bets but the only ones to chose from.  Good luck everyone

Won 3 of the 4 and pushed on the Denver over pretty happy given i was weary on a couple of those.  Today has a ton of games happening so will do some research and post back my 5 picks for the day.

If not it would have been 2 of 2 night for me.

After a day of rest, I'm back with my daily pick.  Grin

Okay, here's my advance pick again.

Boston Celtics vs Philadelphia 76ers.

My pick : Philadelphia 76ers -5.5 Good luck everyone!

76ers should be a good bet, I suppose  Celtics struggles will continue again tonight, but 76ers still missing a number of stars themselves
could the Under also be worth some punt ?

Hmm... under 216 looks attractive, I'm not betting on it as I already put my bet on the ATS but if I would, I'd pick the under too.
When 2 good teams meet, they usually play some good defense, and I think we will see it in this game.

There is not much many options to choose from for tonight, I'm going with the Utah Jazz - 4.5 vs Pelicans for tonight, I hope they'll cover the -4.5 Spread.
Elsewhere, I've got my betbuilder on the same fixture

Damn! Clarkson is really improving with a high contribution.

Exactly, he is so comfortable with this team, I think they are a championship contender.

I also love the fact that Ingles and Bogdanović are healthy now, hopefully they'll not be injured as I love to see this healthy Jazz in the playoffs.
In addition, Mike Conley has been improving this season too.. I'm sure this Jazz team will surprise us.

Crazy game! They just  couldn't  stop getting the basket in the 4th Quarter  Sad

@Reid! Congratulations bud!
Thanks, man.
I always trusted my favorite Nuggets.  Grin
I missed one with my wild bet for Jokic getting 2 3-pt shots FG.
Well, that's expected.
I should have taken @Ried's handicap option for Jazz -5.5
It's still a win so it's good.
Jazz now on 6 winning streaks. Damn! Clarkson is really improving with a high contribution.

We have 10 upcoming games, supposed to be 11 but 1 is postponed.

I liked the Spurs vs Warriors.. Warriors playing at home with only -1.5.. What do you think, is it good to back the warriors here?

2nd bet : Memphis vs Blazers.. Blazers only -1.5 at home, should I still go with the home team here?

Break even on the win-loss? how about on the money side mate? I noticed you are betting on low odds, I believe you need to have at least 70% win chance in order to profit using a strict bankroll management.


Yeah, after too many losses with parlay bets, I decided to manage my risks better. So what I do is play single bets rather than parlay ones. Even I don't get those jackpot-like wins, it's profitable in the long run since I only have to focus on winning more than I lose. Also, the reason why I don't chase after those optimistic high odds in NBA games is because I'm still learning more on NBA games and the market. So my bets tend to be on the safer markets. 



Much better to adjust if you feel that the old way is not generating good outcomes.
It's  good to plan and take every chances, you don't need to rush as most of the time it will only lead you to lose your money.

Aiming for a big blow in the other hand can  consider only if you have enough money to risk and knowledge sorting those good bets to
win over, though without this taking more risk can also annoyed you turning you  being more aggressive chasing the win.

Taking one step at a time make you more wiser and more practical choosing between high risk over low risk betting strategy.

I wish you luck with parlay bets, that's would certainly fill your pocket if you win. Personally I love to bet on parlay, sometimes the total odds reach 1000 with a low stake, looks like a lottery but I'm loving it.

Yeah, I do love parlay bets as well. The only problem is they're a lot harder to win compared to singles. I've won some parlays while playing NBA games though. Really enjoying the huge odds.

Jazz ML for my single.


Just woke up to realize that Utah Jazz came through for me. I watched the game until the half time before sleeping off. Came up this morning to see a green betslip. I should have taken @Ried's handicap option for Jazz -5.5



This puts me at break-even for the week after the Bucks and Lakers upsets. Nuggets and Jazz won last night so it's safe to assume that everyone had a great night.

There's even more games tonight so I'm looking forward getting more wins. If possible, win a parlay too. Kudos to everyone for the tips.

1) Denver-10
2) Denver game over 220

1) OKC majority of their losses are behind 10+ points so maybe a good chance that this bet will win

2) Denver and OKC are averaging 115 and 106 points per game respectively. If the game will be close, reaching 220 points as a total likely be difficult to achieve.

Yeah I was teetering which way but I like this to be an up and down type of game.  Now the only thing is how well they put it in the bucket.  I believe the pace will be there between the teams.  Fingers crossed Smiley
