The game between Jazz and OKC was initially delayed and then postponed. The news just broke out that Rudy Gobert has tested positive for covid-19. The risk of other Jazz players/staff members contracting the virus is very high.

Adam Silver was probably going to announce tomorrow that all games would be played without fans but now with the news of NBA infected players, i won't be surprised if they stop all games altogether and just pause the season.

Yay, my pre-coronavirus parlay hit.  Grin

edit; Harkorede was faster than me.....OH SHIT while i was typing this post, NBA has made it official. fuck

edit2; I'd better watch the Kings and Pels then, last game of the regular season? lol

It's happening guys! NBA has suspended all matches until further notice, starting from the Utah Jazz vs Thunder game.

It's been speculated that Rudy Golbert was touching every mic and all other things in his pre-game interview, and apparently got sick just before the game.

It's actually happening, it was announced minutes ago that this will be the first NBA game played without fans:

Warriors to play Nets without fans in arena following San Francisco order

I caught on a podcast earlier today that GSW will lose approximately $3.5mil per home game. Article on the subject: here

This is going to hurt them a lot.
It can become a virtual NBA afterwards. Way different than watching it live.

Well, we are gamblers here so the game must go on. I think they will still have a part of whatever the Vegas is getting from those scores.
It is just sad to see that the entertaining industry is also being affected by a virus that for me is created as a weapon for mass killing.
They might have just tried it if it does work. That's my opinion though.

Anyway, maybe I am going full blast with my bets.
But, it will be difficult now. You won't rely on a home court advantage from now on.

That's a big money, but they can't stop the game, the decision to play without the fans is good because people can still watch online and of course still can bet online, if the conspiracy theory is true that NBA is fixing games, they'll be making more than $3.5 million per game, do you believe?

Boys get them parlays while you can, i hear that the NBA is in discussion to make some drastic changes very soon due to the COVID-19 threat.
We might see games canceled, games played without fans, games played at neutral places (not yet affected by the virus). Worst case scenario - shutting down the NBA for a period of time.

Damn!

This shit should just leave our lovely sports out of this, it's crazy to just keep seeing several sporting events being halted because of the threats the COVID-19 posses, EPL, UCL and now the NBA ?! I just hope they do find a lasting solution on how to contain it ASAP!

Yeah it does feel good when you hit a parlay for more than 10x on any given night.


You know right, it sure does feel good, congratulations to you too!

Guess who just knocked down an ~30x parlay ? Yeah right, that's me! I've been sitting out making picks here as usual simply because I don't find the fixture really good for me to make a clear-cut decision but I've been tailing @stadus picks.

Tonight, I decided to go for a 1st Quarter/Half parlay bet on some of the favorites tonight and boom! I hit it!

And some of them are live? Wow, I really envy you for that.
Congratulations.

Thanks man! I place the bet pre-live, about 3 hours before any game started IIRC. The "live" text shown on some of the bets only indicates what games are still in progress when I took the screenshot, even though the bet has been settled already.

Congratutlations mate, that's very lucky of you, I envied that win seriously, I wish you shared that before the game so we have a time to follow it.

Thanks mate!

I also would loved not to win this and have some users from here win it too, but it just didn't occur to me to share the bet because I didn't make analysis I just selected some of the favorites and excluded Houston Rockets due to their recent performance (I'm very glad I did), and they could have cost me the win, tbh.

Still not as good as your 30x, you could of entered it on the other site to get a 0.01btc prize at the least for putting it on their forum. But whatevs, a win is win! Regardless of side bet payouts. Cheesy

They did announced it during their press conference where they might have empty arenas to play the games if not just shut them down all together.
Steph Curry was thought to have contracted it but they released news about it yesterday as it was mentioned during last nights warriors game he did not have covid-19 and it was just the flu.
He will be playing in the game against the nets.

This is really possible to happen, as there are lots of confirmed cases all over the world and to make sure not risking the fans and the players cancellation of games might happen.
Take each opportunities while there's still no information regarding to this possible interruption from this league. Take your bets and hope for the best.

Looks like someone is back.
76ers odds of winning got so high that betting for them is non profitable anymore.  Grin
But I see thru the injury report Embiid will still not be playing. Any secret news guys?
That is 7.40ML for Pistons. It could be profitable.  Cheesy

Heat -9.5
Mavericks -1.5
Thunders -2.5
Pelicans without handicap.

I will take the Pistons ML later for a single bet.  Wink

Freaking won it all. Thank goodness.
But that is just 2 games and 1 on side bet for the under score.  Grin
I want more!!!

9 games for later.
Here we go again.

Pacers no handicap.
Grizzlies -3.5
Mavericks -4.5
Blazers -4.5

Side bet for Timberwolves @ 8.20 Just for fun.

I like all your picks, except for Mavericks -4.5, not gonna bet against the spurs at home, I know they are struggling right now but they can beat a good team at home, these two has been rivals so its definitely nice to watch them all but I'll skip the betting part.

Wow! I didn't win any.  Grin Last of my bets is Blazers but I don't care anymore since it was part of the parlay.
You are right though about the Spurs playing at home.
I didn't see thru that. You did great.
One thing I also missed, Aldridge. I thought he was still out and was just shocked that he was already playing.  Grin

I think it was the past 2 games of the Spurs which I always bet against them because Aldridge is injured and I won it all.
Noted.

My pick for tonight's games, just one game only and that's the Rockets/ Twolves game.

Until the Rockets will figure out the mess they are into, I'll continue betting on their opponent.
They might be due for a win but not gonna happen if they are still out rebounded in the game, so I will try my luck to bet the wolves here.

PICK_ Wolves Moneyline $ Wolves +12.5
If they will not find any solution with their current system and all of those attempts outside ain't going to workout for them, then picking their opponent's to win will be the good catch here. Rockets needs to be more aggressive and make some good adjustment not just from rebounding but also with their shooting inside.

Pick : Nuggets -3.5

Congratulations on another easy win, I was able to tail on your pick, you are on a win streak now if I am not mistaken. sorry,.. 3 win streak?

@Reid, turns out you are correct, it was indeed a low scoring game and in fact the score was very low, they only manage to score 193 points and the best thing is that the Raptors have won again, and their win streak continues.

What I understand about Botnake said is that the line of 224 is quite high as an opening line, so most probably people will bet the under as 224 is high and they think they'll hit their bet as they think it's gonna be a low scoring game.
Yeah, it just got so confusing at the end with all the explanation.  Grin

For example, before, the warriors and rockets are both a high scoring game and the line opened up like 210, of course people should be pounding that over as they think it's too easy considering both teams are a high scoring team, however, after the game the result is under,  so the public loses as their perception is wrong and they didn't figure out that the line is a trap.
Good thinking.
But as for my own opinion, it is because of the Jazz defensive strategy.
Snyder might change the way they will play if it is the Raptors they are up against.
An offensive team which needs to be stopped with every possession. Don't know. I might just be a little crazy.
Well, it is almost the half and Raptors is at lead. (50)
Edit: 57 at halftime.

Hawks and Hornets look like an even match at OT now. This is why I never took the risk to bet with any.
