Who is playing the Timberwolfes tonight? I am surprised they basically have even odds facing the Lakers. Sure they lost their 3 preseason games but that doesn't really say anything. On paper they are definitely the better team and you want to start strong if you want to be a contender.
Maybe we can see some minutes from Bronny James if there is garbage time in the 4th quarter. Weeks ago I played a little bet on his season stats. I made a bet that he will make +82.5 points for the season. Also I just need over 5.5 3s from him for the season to win a bet. That doesn't seem too far fetched doesn't it?  Grin



I'm all over the Wolves tonight.  Everyone overbets the Lakers, yankees and cowboys in the beginning of the year.  Deep value going against them early on.

Bronny hitting one 3 pointer this year woukd shock me to be honest.  That under is gonna bang.  Also taking the under on his points.  I had it in the mid 70s though.  He is going to collect a lot of minutes in the g league.

Yeah, I think it's very easy to bet on the Wolves right now, I'm taking -1.5 at 1.97. Wolves still looks solid despite looking KAT to the Knicks, but they got Donte and Randle which is going to be a big help for them.

Plus, ANT could be a year better and smarter. His stint in the Olympics, playing along side Curry, Lebron and KD is enough for this kid to bring his game on the next level as he had seen this legends first hand on their discipline and of course their clutch plays and so it will be a big confident booster for him this season.

I am genuinely excited about the start of the new season. There are so many storylines to follow...curious to see if Luka, SGA, or Ant can take the MVP off the big boys.  We haven't had a guard win the MVP in like forever...what was it Harden in 2017-18?

This is also the farewell tour for TNT's Inside the NBA, those guys provided one the best coverage of any sport with their show...they will be missed.


I couldn't catch many of the preseason games, but it would be a shame not to have any bets on opening day, so yeah... Grin


D. White 2+ 3pts / K. Towns 12+ RA @1.70  X

D. White is the guy i trust the most shooting the 3pt ball from the Celtics and we know they will chuck a ton.

Brunson & KAT looked great in the only Knicks preseason game i watched, that PnR action between the two looked unstoppable. I like Towns dominating the boards over Horford though.


A. Edwards 25+ points / A. Davis 18+ points @1.80  won

I don't see anyone on the Lakers roster that can match up well against Ant, so yeah i expect him to have a strong game.

JJ Redick has repeatedly stated that he wants the Lakers to run their offense through AD. I expect him to lead the team in FG attempts throughout the season, that's of course, assuming he stays healthy.

I wanted to put something on DiVincenzo, but his new role off the bench for the T'wolves is a wait-and-see for now.

Oh man, we are so back… I need to take a look at the tv schedule and see if I can watch any of the games. Not sure I’d want to bet against the Timberwolves but a fresh Lakers squad is pretty dangerous and Minnesota has some major roster moves to contend with. I’m so happy that NBA basketball is back.

Warriors.
God damn they are hot using their bench.
Kuminga is hot, Podziemski is hot, Moody is hot. and so they made the Lakers suffer. I am not a fan of the Warriors anymore but this shows how deep their bench is.
No Steph, no Draymond, no more Klay but it all work out fine for them in the preseason. But like what I have said on the other threads, I don't count preseason as the actual talent showing of the NBA players. We will still have to wait on what they will show during the start of the season to tell if they are good enough for their team. Yeah, just like Knecht who connect.
They’re perfect in the preseason so far, and that’s a great sign that this team will perform well in the upcoming regular season. Buddy Hield will be a huge factor in their success. If he keeps playing with the same consistency, it’s not far-fetched to think the Warriors could make it back to the NBA Finals. The thing is, the Warriors are built as a team of shooters, no matter who they put on the floor, they can all contribute. So, seeing them dominate their opponents isn’t surprising at all.

There's no rush to bet early on the regular season since it’s still about a month away. But for the preseason, we can start placing bets as it kicks off on October 5 with just two games: Nuggets vs Celtics (which could be a potential NBA Finals preview) and Lakers vs Wolves (LeBron vs the "Son of MJ"). Smiley

Yup! for sure it is too early for us to make a bets and we are just knowing the new teams and what they can do, but we can make a bet for sure, and the Nuggets VS Celtics game was won by the champion but for sure the Nuggets is just hiding something this is the preseason and we can not take this games into consideration as this is a preseason and teams are not focus in the preseason.

Right now the New Orleans Pelicans VS Orlando Magic game had started and it is the 2nd quarter right now it was a close match and right now the score are 35 for the Pelicans and 36 for the Magic.

Hey, hey, hey, it's October! This is the time we will feel the NBA is near starting.

In two days the preseason is starting.
The Denver Nuggets will be playing against the Boston Celtics.
Then, the LA Lakers versus the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Anyway, have you guys seen the new LA Clippers logo?


https://www.nba.com/news/clippers-unveil-new-unis-2024-25-season

That was posted in February but I just recently saw the new logo after checking the preseason schedule. I was surprised with the new color and the new image. Just shared it here in case someone was surprised about what team is that new logo.  Cheesy
Also, they will be playing at their new Dome, the Intuit Dome, and I guess that will now completely separate them from the LA Lakers.

Ohhhh. At long last the betting thread is back with some fresh betting options. Not sure I’m ready myself to start placing bets, but I am happy to see that one of my favorite forms of entertainment is right around the corner. It won’t be too much longer now before I’ll be at a bar with a beer and a burger cheering on my favorite sport.

Yeah, I do not think that we should rush right now, although some of us are eager to bet because we might have missed the NBA so much. But we will just have to wait for a couple of weeks and then we can go and start again. As per my experience, it's better to bet though early, as some of the 'favorites', could have a early advantage and so they can cover the handicap very easy.

So we shall see, as everyone might be focusing on the US election betting, October 23, we have two games already, defending champion Boston is the favorite against the Knicks, and then Lakers vs the Wolves. The latter though might be a interesting and great matchup. The Wolves are the slight favorite here.

I am eyeing two teams in the outrights. Minnesota Timberwolves is one of my choices and Dallas Mavericks.

Great odds for both teams, and at +1100, that’s solid! Good pick, mate. These two teams are definitely on the rise, especially Dallas now with Thompson. As for the Wolves, their playoff experience is huge, and they can build on that to elevate their game next season. If there’s a "to win the West" bet available, even at +600, that’s worth considering too, I'll definitely take it.  Smiley

If you can place a spare amount as early as now then treat as it's already gone then it will surprise you if ever both teams performs again this season, we can't conclude but the winning chance of both squads are decent, Dallas and Wolves both are great teams in the west just place your bet and let it go, enjoy every game you watch and surely you'll be betting along the way with each games they've played and all the rest of the games that you feel the desire of throwing spares for entertainment.

Yeah, it's a good choice.

The Wolves have a good season, and we might see Anthony Edwards really getting into his peak, he is still very young, and so he can improved a lot. And from his stint in the Olympics and playing along greats like KD, Lebron and Curry, he should have gotten a lot of experience and confidence booster.

For the Dallas, Luka has carried the team, but with Klay at the wing and if he still can play and not wash up as others have said, they could still be a good team to reckon in the West and could reach the finals again.
So true. What Anthony Edwards showed during the Western Conference Finals was already something to look forward to. I think his growth in the sport will be fast and all he needs is someone who could play with him with the same goal of a championship. There have been lots of issues with KAT but I do believe he also grew when the critics talked about his decision-making in the Finals especially Charles Barkley who had been vocal about mistakes made by KAT. The good thing is, that he listened and didn't mind all the criticism and it made him better.

This tells us we are really near the 2024 Season.

Yey!
Early opening of the thread. I love it. I sometimes make some bets in the pre-season especially if I think there's a chance to win it. This is great @stadus, thank you.

Nah, I am not betting on the Boston Celtics too. A lot of changes happened in different teams and I think that will affect the ending of this season.
PG13 at Philadelphia 76ers, Klay Thompson at Mavericks (let's not forget this team was the one who fought the champions.), Knicks strengthening their bench and more.

I'm opening this thread early since the preseason kicks off next month. We can also dive into NBA futures odds here - might be interesting, especially if we're betting on some underdogs. The odds can get pretty crazy, and who knows, they might just win the championship.

I'll get ahead of you guys and drop the betting odds for the 2024-2025 NBA regular season. (NBA Future)

https://www.rotowire.com/betting/nba/nba-championship-odds.php

As expected, the Celtics are the heavy favorites. But if it were up to me, I wouldn’t bet on the Celtics, the odds are too low, not much value there. Just my two cents.

As is our tradition here, we will temporarily lock the thread now that the 2023-2024 season is over.

Thank you to all the supporters who consistently posted their predictions and bet slips. This thread wouldn't be popular without you guys who kept visiting and participating in the discussion. To continue our discussions, we can proceed with our official NBA thread, which is open 24/7 and never locked, even temporarily.

Lastly, I would like to congratulate the bettors who were profitable, but for those who were not, better luck next time!

Did someone here bet on the Celtics as the outright winning when the season starts? It could have been a good odds as well?
I'm sure there are lots of people who bet on them as they were the heavy favorite to win.

Here's the preseason odds on the last season.
https://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2024_preseason_odds.html

Quote
2023-24 NBA Preseason Odds

Team   Odds       
Boston Celtics   +450      
Denver Nuggets   +450      
Phoenix Suns   +600

Not so attractive but if you are bettor on that odds, you'll not gonna worry as the Celtics had an easy path to the championship.
This upcoming season, they are still the heavy favorite, but it's currently +300 only
