I lose my pick so my record now is  YTD 2-1 (67%)

For another early picks. I have the follwing teams tomorrow as my bets.

First pick - Hawks -2.5
I'm impressed with their performance vs the Suns. On the save venue, their battle the Warriors, both teams came up on an impressive win and both are playing on a back to back game. however, since Hawks does not travel, I believe they have the advantage on that factor.

2nd pick - Bulls -1.5
last time playing at home they lose, maybe this time they'll get a win.

The kind of confidence he has with the  Warriors now. 29 points from 11-15 shooting, everything seemed so easy for him. Curry was just the 2nd leading scorer as he only chipped in 20 points from a not so impressive shooting. Also, we can't neglect the contribution of Draymond Green in this game, he scored  9 points, grabbed 12 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 blocks. That's an overall performance from Draymond, so I was not surprise that the won by 20 points which they haven't done for a while even on their home court.

I wasn't able to bet on the games tonight, but it's good to see bettors doing livev betting and winning with that great odds.

I do hope that there's bettors who ride on the Warriors winning against the Memphis Grizzlies. Warriors though have been struggling, but as we have seen Kuminga is responding with another great performance.

He has been scoring 20++ in his last 8 games so most likely he will stay and not be traded by the Warriors as his name keeps on popping as we get closer to the trade deadline.

He can create his own shot and was very accurate in this game. He was 12-17 overall but 7-11 beyond the arc. I wasn't able to bet live as I was hoping my pre game bet would win, and was happy with the result. They were at some so I'm confident that they could win the game but of course, we know KD, he ain't going anyhwhere, good thing they made some mistake and wasn't able to come back anymore.

Bradley Beal wasn't playing well, that's the reason why Hawks took advantage of that.

Beal stats are bad.  made 14 on this game but struggle his shooting at 5-16.

Here is the result for yesterday's pick I really forgot to make another pick for today's game I was really busy this time,

New York Knicks (1.64) VS Indiana Pacers (2.32) - WIN


This one was a close game Tyrese Haliburton played for the 1st half but has settled down for a rest because of his injuries so he can be available for the next games while The Knicks, playing without injured starting forwards Julius Randle and OG Anunoby, DiVincenzo scored 20 points and Deuce McBride had 16. Isaiah Hartenstein had 12 points and 19 rebounds, and Achiuwa finished with 12 points and 16 boards for the Knicks, who missed 20 of 24 3-pointers through three quarters but made up for it by outrebounding the Pacers 60-44 and scoring 25 second-chance points, but it was a game night for Jalen Brunson,

Boston Celtics (1.16) VS Los Angeles Lakers (5.60) - LOST


Austin Reaves scored a season-high 32 points and hit a career-high seven 3-pointers to help a Los Angeles team missing its biggest stars stun the Boston Celtics 114-105 on Thursday night, The result was perhaps the Lakers' best victory of the season, That sentiment that the game would be a mismatch didn't affect the remainder of the Lakers' young roster and Austin Reaves have shown his potential and for the Lakers to have now a possible big three casting him LeBron James and Anthony Davis,

Memphis Grizzlies (2.75) VS Cleveland Cavaliers (1.47) WIN


It was a very close game Donovan Mitchell led the Cavaliers with 25 points. Caris LeVert tallied 12 of his 16 points off the bench in the second half. Jarrett Allen scored 14 points and nine rebounds, but his 16-game streak with a double-double ended as he left the game early in the third quarter with a left ankle injury, Jaren Jackson Jr. paced the Grizzlies with 25 points, five rebounds, and five assists while Santi Aldama finished with 18 points and nine rebounds, and Vince Williams Jr. tallied 17 points and six rebounds. Trey Jemison who signed a 10-day contract scored five points and three rebounds in his Grizzlies debut,

Good, and to break my curse against the Phoenix Suns,  .

I think Trae Young is one of the most underrated guards we have around, even playing when he has shoulder injuries before. And just like you said, they needed this win. And so they deliver.

Hopefully there are some gamblers who see that as well and put a money on them live betting.

They won the game, and they needed that win. Although it was a back and forth early, but the fourt quarter was different as Hawks have better defense and rebounding. Also, the shot of Gordon that was taken away after a review because he stepped out, that was huge, it's a 3 point shot taken from them.

Trae Young just proved that he deserve to be in an all star, he made a statement tonight with 32 points, 15 assists, and 3 steals.

In the 4th quarter atlanta hawk is already 7 points ahead although not a significant advantage. but it seems that hawk will win this match. suns usually play out side if the shooters are stuck, they will lose.

It's a big risk, but I taking the Hawks by ML against the Suns, @2.40.

Suns is just leading by 1 point going into the last minutes of the 3rd quarter. And it's a close game and who knows, maybe the Suns are going to choke in this game and give it away to the home team.

I like the matchup between Murray and Booker here.

That was really insane I never expected that to happen Tyrese Maxey is a monster with that kind of performance many are so impressed with what he has done, with 51 points he surely carries the team on his back getting 30-plus points in the 1st half, it was really crazy after his 3 days rest not playing for the 76ers against the Nuggets, Trail Blazers, and the Warriors and Joel Embiid was out Tyrese Maxey was really amazing getting those crazy deep three in the 1st half,

Here is the result of the NBA games for today

New York Knicks VS Indiana Pacers SCORE 109 - 105 - WIN

The Indiana Pacers finished the 1st round with a lead of 58 to 51, but the New York Knicks didn't let the lead for long, and with the 2nd half of the game until the 4th quarter of the game the Knicks got their lead against the Pacers, and it was a heart-stopping game as it was a close one, and Tyrese Haliburton played only 22 mins and after the 1st half Haliburton didn't play anymore until the game ends Miles McBride got 16 points, Donte DiVincenzo got 20 points and Jalen Brunson got 40 points for the New York Knicks.

Memphis Grizzlies VS Cleveland Cavaliers SCORE 101 - 108 - WIN

The Memphis Grizzlies got a great start in this game until the end of the 1st half they were leading this game, and Jaren Jackson Jr. became a great asset for the Grizzlies and continued to strive to win until the Cleveland Cavaliers got a lead in the 4th quarter and this time Donovan Mitchell done a tremendous job in making it happen, until that quarter the Cleveland Cavaliers have won the game, Jarett Allen got 14 points, Caris LeVert got 16 points, and Donovan Mitchell got 25 points and winning this game.

Utah Jazz VS Philadelphia 76ers SCORE 124 - 127 - LOST

The 76ers made a great leap in this game they have led the 1st half thanks to Tyrese Maxey and they are making it possible because of him, those 3 pointers of Maxey have become the main highlight of this game, I thought if Joel Embiid is not playing the game the Utah Jazz can win this but I forgot about Tyrese Maxey, Kelly Oubre Jr. got 16 points, Tobias Harris got 28 points and Tyrese Maxey got 51 points that led the Utah Jazz to their demise, and for my bet to lose,

3-0 last night for a clean sweep.  Tonight I am uncharacteristically taking 5 road favorites.

First gimme the Clippers-12.5 against Detroit.  Clips are rolling expect them to destroy

Second gimme Suns-3.5 against the Hawks.  Think this is where Suns start making a move to the front of the pack in the west

Third.  Gimme Miami-7.5 against the wiz.  Mia.i always wins games like these they should roll

Fourth gimme sacramento -3.5 against Pacers.  Siakam and haliburton are on minutes restrictions and second game of a back to back and they just flew home.  Sac rolls here in a blowout.

Fifth amd they are underdogs, gimme Toronto +4.5 on the road in Houston.  This is my least favorite bet but I'm riding it.

∆ A. Nesmith 20+ PR / K. Murray 1+ stocks @1.89 ∆  X

Aaron Nesmith has seen a significant bump in his playing time for the Pacers of late. He's averaging 35+ minutes over the last six games, which is over 10 minutes more than he's had on the season. He's covered 20+ PR in 5/L5 while shooting 54% from deep (SAC give up the most threes to opposing SFs/PFs). Pacers games typically have outrageously high O/U totals, plus Nesmith's secured minutes make this line a lock in my eyes.

Keegan Murray has an active streak of 15 games with at least one block or steal. Both the Kings and the Pacers are playing on the back end of a back-to-back, where teams tend to commit more turnovers than usual. Murray is in a good spot to extend his run.

Tossing a parlay out there today.  None of these picks should surprise anyone (unlike my last Lakers to win pick).  This is a bet that we won't see another major upset today. 
Good luck to all today's players out there!

Damn! The Lakers bench did a great job here. Like I throw away my money.

New York Knicks - Indiana Pacers - Indiana Pacers ML - Lost! I loved this game even though my bet was a goner. The Knicks kept on pushing even though the Pacers had a good lead. Jalen Brunson was so awesome at finding his way in score in the painted area.
Boston Celtics - Los Angeles Lakers - Boston Celtics (-10.5) - Lost! This is just too bad for the Celtics, worse, at their home. Ewe!
Memphis Grizzlies - Cleveland Cavaliers - Cleveland Cavaliers (-5.5) - Won!! Covered. Thankfully I didn't get greedy because it ended with just a 7 point lead. Cavs continue their winning streak.

10 games later.
The Pacers and Grizzlies are playing back-to-back games.

Here are my picks.
Detroit Pistons - Los Angeles Clippers - Los Angeles Clippers (-10.5) - The Clippers are trying to revive their winning streak and this should be an easy one for them.
Atlanta Hawks - Phoenix Suns - Phoenix Suns (-1.5) - I don't know if they are underestimating the Suns or if the Hawks are being overestimated. We will see.
San Antonio Spurs - New Orleans Pelicans - New Orleans Pelicans (-5.5) - Zion is questionable to play again. With him is Herb Jones and Nance Jr.
Minnesota Timberwolves - Orlando Magic - Minnesota Timberwolves (-5.5)
Denver Nuggets - Portland Trail Blazers - Denver Nuggets (-10.5) - I am curious about this. Jokic is still listed as questionable, and Jamal Murray is probable too, so what the heck is happening? Maybe I will make sure about this later on and input the bet before the game. Just to be sure, because -10 is a high spread, and if those two won't play, I doubt it can be covered.

Good luck everyone, have a great day.

I don't know what Tyrese Maxey was on today, but whatever the hell that was, it was monster game from him literally single handle carried the 76ers on his shoulder, and there is no way they could have won today's match without, to be very honest. He dropped 18 points in the first quarter alone with a 6 of 6 from behind the arc, and 51 points in total for the game, little wonder as to why they're calling him the imminent face of the franchise, because he's hooping at the topmost tier level, no doubt, for a lad that's just 23 years, and a whole career ahead of him.

I believe they are not a good 3 point shooting team and they are just below 40% this season. Shooting 53% on the road seems so high especially against the Celtics who are known to be a good team with balance offense and defense. I guess lots of bettors really fell on that trap because Celtics are capable of winning via blowout on the road like what they did to the Miami Heat, so at home they have a decent chance of doing it, but what we witnessed was a flipped.

For now that's the biggest story in the NBA, but don't forget to move forward. Next game for the Celtics is still at home, it's against the Memphis, this sure going to be different, I'm looking for a bounce back game.

They probably didn't play hard thinking that the Lakers are struggling and they can easily beat them. Normally, when the Boston are down, they could easily come back, just like what happened against their game vs the Pacers, but this time around, they look lacking of energy, they aren't playing defense which they usually do.

I don't know what's the season high for the Lakers 3 point FG percentage, but this game they shoot 53% or 19-36 (shot made- attempts). While the Celtics only shoots 33% which I think is still acceptable but not acceptable is their defense outside.

Ya, the Celtics were giving up open 3’s all night long. Seems odd considering the Lakers were without their big man. Gotta chalk this one up to a bad game plan.

Lots of parlay was probably destroyed due to the outcome of the game. Not only the Lakers won but they dominated the Celtics on their own homecourt where they have a very impressive record. Nothing is impossible, lol..what's happening here? Was it a rig show?

I can't believe a Lebron+ Davis less Lakers could easily beat the Celtics.

-16.5 but they loss by 9 points. Reaves took charges and scored 32 points, but 7-10 from beyond the arc.. where's the defense C's?

This is why sometimes you have to bet the odds, not the game. With odds like this, there was no way to bet the Celtics and have it be worth it. I didn’t see any games that would’ve made for an attractive parlay. So you go against the grain and hope for a big payout with an upset. Tonight that gamble paid off. RIP to those who threw money at a 1.08x bet.
