<...> so my bet is Dallas +4.5

gl with your bet, Mavs are definitely in the game, both quarters were pretty close, you just have to hope that their bench will outplay Bucks bench in the 4th quarter, quite possible imo.  Wink

Thanks, I got one today, I'm officially even in the playoffs with 1-1 record. I just bet 1 game per day even with playoffs so I can really focus on what team to choose, but I'm not saying I'm winning all the time. I just like the Mavericks, and even in the regular season, I will not hesitate to back them against the Bucks as an underdog team.

I caught one today, as i'm continuing to follow my strategy and bet on 1HF results only as i don't know which players will end games.

Giannis got popped in the nose at the start of the game, nothing serious though, he was back and having a great game, 23pts at the half.

<...> so my bet is Dallas +4.5

@morvillz7z.. 0-1 for me in the preseason, I'll bounce back today.



Today's game Dallas vs Bucks.

I'm laying my bet on the Dallas Mavericks here, I like the underdog in the preseason as games are very unpredictable.
Dallas Mavericks is still a very consistent to me, they can play without their star player so if Luka will be limited tonight, I still trust the his teammates to finish the game with a high competition, so my bet is Dallas +4.5

Lost my first bet of the season, or should i say preseason, Bulls absolutely got trumped at home, excluding the 4th quarter.

John Wall looked explosive, Boogie slimmed down, hustling for loose balls/rebounds, glad to see them both get some action after a serious time off the court.

All Houston starters (except for their rookie Jae'Sean Tate) were 20 or more on the +/- category, shooting very good % from deep.

I had a very negative outlook on the Rockets upcoming season, i have to do a one-eighty on that prediction, Rockets won't suck, with or without Harden.

I'm also surprise that John Wall is already aggressive, it seems like it has not change his mentality, he is still a tough guy both physically and mentally. It's just one game but I know what I will expect with the Rockets this season, hopefully Wall will play the real PG and not harden will.

^Oh i'm definitely starting today, i've circled Bulls to beat Rockets, not sure whether it's going to be FH or FH/FT (very tempting odds) yet.
Might put more bets on the two early games, but need to see their lineups first.

Bulls starting lineup: White, LaVine, Porter, Markkanen, Carter as per K.C. Johnson on twitter.

Rockets: not sure if Wall and Cousins will play but even if they do it won't more than 15min

Interesting, I like the line movement in favor of the bulls too, opened at +1 now at -3, and considering bulls is not a good team in the regular season than the Rockets, I think they'll play harder and they'll start in preseason. I'm gonna follow your pick, I'm not really concentrating on capping games yet.

Do you have some picks today?  Smiley

Me, I think I will just play it for fun, I will not share my picks yet since this is a preseason games, it's very unpredictable and key players might be setting in most of the games to avoid injury. Let's have fun and just bet a little, save the money for the regular season where real job will start.

The preseason games start in just over 24 hours from now, most teams will play each other multiple times, to limit/avoid unnecessary travel, exposure to covid.

I think Sportsbet and Stake use the same provider for basketball markets, and we had those available for the Orlando preseason games earlier this year, i'm sure markets will be available shortly before the tip-off of each game. Be sure to check who is playing and who is not, i'm not expecting to see most stars play, or even if they play they won't get big minutes.

"LeBron James and Anthony Davis are unlikely to suit up for Friday's preseason opener."

Maybe available tomorrow?
Maybe. We don't know.

The providers probably still haven't decided if they'll include the preseason but most likely they almost include it. Maybe it's just a delay.

No, in my years of gambling, I never missed betting on a preseason games, that means they have the betting odds available.
By the way guys, preseason is the only time where my betting on over in the totals hits most of the time, that's according to my experience.

I'll probably make an experiment on this, just for this preseason if I will not forget it. lol

There is no defense in pre-season game mate, that is why the score is insanely high  Smiley.

I will be watching your experiment if you will make one and hope you will post it in this thread or you can make another thread as to not hi-jack this one. ATM, no pre-season games in the NBA is available on my favorite bookies. When do they start?

Good luck with your experiment. You can post it here and tell us what happens with it.

I've checked a known book and still, there's no preseason for NBA on its list.

This is only a preseason game, maybe that's the reason why they did not release the betting odds early.
Probably 1 day before the game, we will see the odds available already, by now, we should start depositing our bankroll in our favorite sportsbook. haha

@stadus Good to see this thread up and running, preseason games start next weekend, so i guess we should have some markets to bet on by then.
Thank you for replying here, I like to see you picks with your very detailed explanation, can't wait to start betting now.

But it's true that he can't carry a team, a few years ago he's still young and needed more experience. This time, I think he had enough of those and what
he really need is a good tandem and veteran to help him out.

Like what Natalim have shared, they have added veterans which know how to play the game in the playoffs where pressure is high. Giannis will continue to learn and improve, but it's not just him really, it's the whole team, he can't carry his own team if he will just work alone, just Lebron what Lebron experience during his early season with the Cavaliers.
I remember the early days of Lebron and fans just didn't noticed how he started but only noticed when he's starting to go up and on-line because of their achievements.
Fans hate Lebron though he is already achieving in his early career in the NBA.
He was carry his team, even brought in the NBA Finals, but all that effort failed because their team's opponent are just so good on how they play as a team. Cavaliers vs Spurs, if you've seen them, you pity the Cavaliers because Spurs did an easy job for them.

https://www.basketball-reference.com/playoffs/2007-nba-finals-cavaliers-vs-spurs.html

it was a swept.



It is ok if Giannis won't get the ring by this season but I know that he's aiming for it. And, him and his teammates are doing their best for it. Honestly, it's all the players are aiming for it. Who doesn't want it? none.  Tongue
Giannis needs to win a ring, he has the talent but he is not as good as Lebron's although he keeps winning the MVP award.
Hopefully Bucks this season is an improved team with not much added in their line up.

My early favorites now are Denver and RocketsSmiley

HOU, really?...that's an odd choice right there.  Smiley

Rockets are with a new coach Stephen Silas (zero experience as HC in the NBA) and a new GM.
DeMarcus Cousins who has had more injuries than games played in the last three years, John Wall hasn't played in two years coming off major injuries himself. I don't know how can you consider them favorites, it's just so many uncertainties around the team, will they continue to play small ball, will the veteran players listen/mesh with the rookie coach? Oddsmakers have them as the 6th best team in the West which might be a bit high imo, i expect teams like the Suns, Blazers, or even the Grizzlies to have a better year than the Rockets.

@stadus Good to see this thread up and running, preseason games start next weekend, so i guess we should have some markets to bet on by then.


I hope they'll figure it out how to win. lol.

That's a good point mate, some call them big 3 but they are not looking at the status of Wall and Cousins, these two are still fragile at the moment, I mean they haven't prove it yet, the coming season is the time that they can prove if they are still as durable as before. Wall and Cousins are both aggressive, so there's a big risk that they'll be reinjured again, we don't want to see that but considering their past injuries, we can't just disregard this sad possibility.
