It was a close game for these two teams the Orlando Magic was leading the 1st half so I thought that the Magic would win but yeah the Atlanta Hawks were slowly taking the pace until they tied the game in the 3rd quarter, and they a lead for the Atlanta Hawks now, then Banchero Tied the game again until Dejounte Murray has made it a win for the Atlanta Hawks actually I like this game both teams could surely win the game but unfortunately it is not for me all of the games was not for me I lost all of my bets, and the Utah Jazz VS the Golden State Warriors game was postponed.

---

Here are the results of the game bets and predictions

Atlanta Hawks VS Orlando Magic SCORE 106 - 104 - LOST

It was really a close game and I was really close to winning this one until Dejounte Murray destroyed that, I am pretty much sure that I am winning this game but it was a great game and a close one the team kept on exchanging the lead it was really great I was on the edge of my seat feeling thrilled, but yeah I lost this game, Onyeka Okongwu got 15 points, Trae Young has a double-double of 12 assist and 18 points and Dejounte Murray has 26 points, and was the one that make this game a win for the Hawks.

Toronto Raptors VS Miami Heat SCORE 121 - 97 - LOST

I should have trusted the Toronto Raptors rather than having my bet on the inconsistent Miami Heat, the truth is I am going with the underdog for most of my bet but because I was doubtful it has gotten into me again, and the 1st half was done with a massive lead for the Toronto Raptors with 43 - 78 score, and for sure the Raptors did a great job in this game by winning in the end, Immanuel Quickley got 17 points, Scottie Barnes got 20 points, RJ Barrett got 26 points and Gary Trent Jr. got 28 points.

Utah Jazz VS Golden State Warriors SCORE 0 - 0 - POSTPONED

The game was postponed after the sudden death of assistant coach Dejan Milojević Well it was due to a heart attack after the team dinner it was a sad night for the Golden State Warriors and the family of Dejan Milojević may he rest in peace.

Portland Trail Blazers VS Brooklyn Nets SCORE 105 - 103 - LOST

Another close game and I really thought that the Brooklyn Nets would manage something for this game but they didn't and in actuality, the Portland Trail Blazers did win this one, I really didn't expect that to happen, Cameron Johnson, Nix Claxton, Spencer Dinwiddie, and Mikal Bridges did a great job in keeping the Brooklyn Nets close the game, for this game Malcolm Brogdon got 16 points, Duop Reath got 17 points, Anfernee Simons got 20 points and Jerami Grant got 30 points for this game.

Detroit Pistons - Minnesota Timberwolves - Minnesota Timberwolves (-10.5) - Lost. Pistons staying within the distance, in the last quarters of the game. Did not cover the spread.
Boston Celtics - San Antonio Spurs - Boston Celtics (-13.5) Won. Just what I thought would happen. Even with Wemby around, Tatum, Brown, and Holiday are just too much for them.
Toronto Raptors - Miami Heat - Miami Heat (-1.5) - Lost! Bad day for the Miami Heat. Raptors playing good defense.
Cleveland Cavaliers - Milwaukee Bucks - Milwaukee Bucks (-2.5) - Lost! No Giannis, Yes problem. 
New Orleans Pelicans - Charlotte Hornets - New Orleans Pelicans (-10.5) - Won! Oh yeah, the Pelicans started it good and ended it great.

---

Later, 5 games.
Here are the teams playing back-to-back games. Raptors, Timberwolves, and Knicks.

Here are my picks for later.
Toronto Raptors - Chicago Bulls - Chicago Bulls (-1.5) Like I said Raptors are playing back-to-back and the Bulls had their 2 days rest. Time to win some games while their start are healthy.
New York Knicks - Washington Wizards - Washington Wizards (10.5) Knicks may be playing at home but if they are exhausted it might become a close game. Expecting the Wizards to take advantage of their stamina.
Utah Jazz - Oklahoma City Thunder - Oklahoma City Thunder (-1.5) I do love how good the Utah Jazz are playing but the OKC Thunder are hungry to claim another win. They are on 2 consecutive losses, they may try hard to win this match.
Sacramento Kings - Indiana Pacers - Sacramento Kings (-5.5) - Kings at home is 13-7 and the Pacers' Haliburton is still questionable to play.

Good luck everyone. 

Tough call on this. Jazz has been dominating their opponents on their last few games, as we can see in .
https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask/jazz-stats-last-10-games

I like to ride with your pick on other games but I will pass on this one, maybe I'll just sit this one out as I'm not sure if OKC will stop the bleading and will take this one, or Jazz will continue their sweet ride.

And my good winning record continues.

Got a W on the Lakers and Toronto, but since the game of Jazz vs GSW got postponed, I only have 2 wins which is 100% win rate.

I guess I need to keep going, I'm not as confident as I am now than before, so follow me. hahaha


For the later games. I'm glad to share my picks again.

1- Sacramento Kings -7.5

They are on a 3 losing streak, first game back at home against Indiana that still misses Hali. It's a great chance  for the Kings to come back and start fresh with a win. I hope they'll not collapse again in the 4th quarter so they can win and cover the spread.

2- Memphis +13.

Minny is good but they are on a back to back game. I can't trust them to cover this high spread, so I'm with the undermanned Memphis to cover the spread.

3- OKC -3

I'm going against the hot Jazz, they were my pick against the Warriors but I feel that the OKC is still the better team. Coming from 2 disappointing loss in LA, I think they'll make sure to break that losing streak here.

It was an easy win after all. At the end of the first half, they were already in control with 35 points lead. Of cours that tells their starters are playing well. Bettors who put their money on the Raptors undersdood that it's a must win job for the team since they are on a losing streak, when a team are on that situation, it's hard to back against them especially at home.

Total of PRA is 32, @morvillz7z won!

This is a very logical pick to follow and go all in on, other than the fact that I'm not much of a Blocks/Steals guy, especially with how the NBA call or determines which one is what.

That said, this Toronto team is literally a Scottie Barnes team right now and almost everything will be centered around him for the foreseeable future, I however don't see this team being able challenge or go very deep into the post season with this roster, I'm hope I could be proved wrong, though!

That fourth quarter in the Clippers game yesterday was a rollercoaster ride from OKC going on a run to lead by a point to suddenly the Clippers covering the spread through the defensive plays of Leonard and PG.

---

I'll be playing the Knicks spread against the Rockets, who have one of the worst performances on the road with only four wins out of the eighteen matches they've played. And I assume the Knicks will try to get back in the rhythm after a rough 39% FG against the Orlando Magic the other day.

∆ S. Barnes 25+ PRA / S. Barnes 2+ stocks @1.64 ∆  won

Masai Ujiri's fire sale/roster overhaul continues, with Pascal Siakam becoming the latest to be traded, this time to Indiana.

Barnes may be the longest-tenured Raptor right now, and he's only 22...(so, it turns out C. Boucher is the only player left from the 18/19 championship squad, at least for now...lol).

I don't usually bet on teams that have recently made a trade, but Barnes' numbers look solid, and with Siakam gone, this is too nice a spot to pass up.

Barnes has hit 25+ PRA in 9/L10, averaging close to 30 PRA in that span. He's hit 2+ stocks (steals+blocks) in 9/L10 as well.

Everyone needs to keep an eye in the Indiana Pacers now after their big trade today. They acquired Pascal Siakam from Toronto today.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nba/sources-pacers-acquire-pascal-siakam-in-trade-with-raptors-pelicans/ar-AA1n8Ajm

They were already playing well vs a lot of the top contenders in the East, but now they took a step towards dominance. Pacers lines might be worth betting now.

My picks for today's NBA game

New York Knicks (1.50) VS Houston Rockets (2.65)

• New York Knicks Injury List

Josh Hart (Knee/ Game Time Decision)
Jalen Brunson (Calf/ Game Time Decision)
Mitchell Robinson (Ankle/ out until at least Apr 2)

• Milwaukee Bucks Injury List

No Injuries

Hawks ML , Celtics ML , Bucks ML and Rockets ML are my pick for today betting ticket.

Odds are not great at all but Rockets have almost @3 to win and this kinda saves my bet. 

All recent matches between the two teams have been close. Two of the last three games have been decided by a single point. Orlando has lost six of its last nine games and is dealing with a lot of injuries. This could be advantageous for Atlanta. The hosts have a 7-3 advantage in the last 10 meetings. Although the slumping Orlando won its last game, it is disadvantageous to play another road game without proper rest. Atlanta is my favorite in this match.

Yeah, it was a great game between the Sixers and the Nuggets, and it was very close till the end as I have expected. Sixers though and Joel proved that they have the finishing kick and have the defense to play on Murray.

Too bad for my Suns pick, I though it was lost already after the Kings took the lead and never watch the game. But I was surprised that my bet was almost a win as well as they come back.

---

Wolves vs Pistons -  I will take the Wolves by-11.5 @1.85. Bigger risk, but I think the Wolves can cover the spread.
Pels vs Hornets - I'll go with the Pelicans by -10.5 @1.71.

Congrats to those who win last night. Let's keep the winning streak, 

Here are my bets and predictions for today's game I will bet on 4 games today,

Atlanta Hawks VS Orlando Magic

The stake odds for this game are 1.60 for the Atlanta Hawks and 2.41 for the Orlando Magic, right now Vit Krejci, Wesley Matthews, De'Andre Hunter, and Mouhamed Gueye can not play for the Atlanta Hawks, while Gary Harris and Franz Wagner can not play for the Orlando Magic, for me I could bet for the Atlanta Hawks but right now we could never know how the Orlando Magic would play tonight they could surely win in a fashion you could never know, so I might risk my bet for the Magic so my pick will be the Orlando Magic.

Toronto Raptors VS Miami Heat

The stake odds for this game are 2.08 for the Toronto Raptors and 1.79 for the Miami Heat, right now Gary Trent Jr. and Gradey Dick are both questionable if they can play for the Raptors Christian Koloko, Otto Porter Jr., and Jakob Poeltl can not play for the Toronto Raptors while Dru Smith is out for this season, Kevin Love and Jaime Jaquez Jr. can not play for the Miami Heat, for this game, the Toronto Raptors is doing great lately but against the Miami Heat, you can never know for sure the Miami heat right now is getting their winnings while the Toronto Raptors got their consecutive losses right now so my pick for this game is the Miami Heat.

Utah Jazz VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 1.64 for the Utah Jazz and 2.33 for the Golden State Warriors, right now the Utah Jazz doesn't have any injuries, while Moses Moody has a calf injury, Chris Paul has a hand injury, and Gary Payton II has a Hamstring injury for this game right now we can all agree with the way the Utah Jazz is playing right now they have 6 consecutive wins, while the Warriors is really inconsistent and could lead to a lost with those signs, but for this game I think I will risk it for my favorite team the Warriors if they lost this one they can not go into the play-offs for sure, so my pick is the Golden State Warriors.

Portland Trail Blazers VS Brooklyn Nets

The stake odds for this game are 3.00 for the Portland Trail Blazers and 1.42 for the Brooklyn Nets, right now Anfernee Simons, Ibou Badji, Malcolm Brogdon, and Deandre Ayton, are questionable if they can play for the Trail Blazers, Robert Williams III is out of this season, Shaedon Sharpe and Moses Brown can not play for the Portland Trail Blazers, while Dariq Whitehead is questionable if he can play for the Nets, Ben Simmons and Day'Ron Sharpe can not play for the Brooklyn Nets, for this game the Portland surely is hard to make a bet for them as they not doing great and Anfernee Simons is going in this game not in his 100% for sure, so for sure my pick is the Brooklyn Nets.

I almost forgot that the Jazz has a match tomorrow, so I am grateful that you shared your picks. The team is hot and this is my first time riding with them. I like the lower handicaps but the Warriors are in a bad condition so I just wager a - 5 with a return of 2.02x.

I lost my last three bets so I simply need to restrict this time and pick the most secure matches. Perhaps this time I can turn my luck with an ML multi bet on Timberwolves, Celtics, Pelicans and Heat. Heat is my decision match, and you could be correct that it is the ideal opportunity for the Raptors to stop their misfortunes while playing with a pro crowd.

Philadelphia 76ers - Denver Nuggets - Denver Nuggets ML - Lost! Crappy day for the Nuggets, I thought they can take advantage of the fact that the 76ers are playing back to back but they cannot. What is lacking? Like Coach Michael Malone said, "Defense!"

Phoenix Suns - Sacramento Kings - Phoenix Suns (-2.5) - Lost by spreads. The Suns did a great job coming from behind. 18 point lead or 20 of the Kings if I remember it right. They chipped it slowly with a 32-8 run, Grayson Allen, Bradley Beal, Booker, and KD, all these guys helped each other to claim the win. Big mistake by Fox for fouling KD in the last seconds of the game.

Los Angeles Clippers - Oklahoma City Thunder - Los Angeles Clippers (-3.5) - Won. The Clippers are just too strong but I do love how the OKC Thunder played against them, they are strong too.

---

We have 10 games later.
Here are my picks.
Detroit Pistons - Minnesota Timberwolves - Minnesota Timberwolves (-10.5) - Antman is questionable to play but I believe they can still manage to defeat the worst team in the East.
Boston Celtics - San Antonio Spurs - Boston Celtics (-13.5)
Toronto Raptors - Miami Heat - Miami Heat (-1.5) - Heat one of the hottest teams at their 3rd winning streak.
Cleveland Cavaliers - Milwaukee Bucks - Milwaukee Bucks (-2.5) - The Cavs are on their 5th winning streak but the Bucks are also hungry and right now on their 3rd winning streak.
New Orleans Pelicans - Charlotte Hornets - New Orleans Pelicans (-10.5) - After that lost against the Mavericks, I bet the Pelicans want revenge, this should be an easy win for them.

Good luck everyone.

Thanks, though I lose on the Nuggets but I still feel good with my handicapping, LOL. Let's see if I would still be able to finish profitable on the next one.

So on the upcoming games, I'm still making 3 picks, and I just need 2 to be profitable.

1- Jazz -4.5 - Not much explanation needed on this one, Jazz has been hot now, so I'm just riding the train.

2-Lakers -3 - I'm hoping that they already found their rthym after a big win against OKC. It doesn't matter if Doncic will play, Lakers can still match them because they are complete and Roy has played already.

3- Toronto ML - They are in a losing streak right now with 4, so they need to get back in the game. I think this is the game where they can win, although Miami is also good on the road but I feel they Raptors can compete and can beat them.

Congrats, good pick. Sixers won the game and covered the spread, ML is the safest though.
Embiid took over, he just proved to Jokic that he is more deserving to win the season MPV award. But with the numbers he missed, not sure if he is still qualified, but a win is a win, it's a big win as what we witnessed is a possible championship rivals.


I thought this game is already over for the Suns. Kings were in control of the game, even in the 4th, but damn Suns, they are in business, they make perfect plays in the 4th and their good 3 point shooting was the key for the comeback win. However, you fall short by .5, you lose your bet.


@Hypnosis00, great handicapping due, 2/3 is not bad all.

Damn, I still have not won a good parlay yet.
Philadelphia 76ers - Houston Rockets - Philadelphia 76ers (-5.5) - Won! Oh yeah! Thank you Embiid.
Dallas Mavericks - New Orleans Pelicans - Dallas Mavericks (5.5) - Won! Kyrie! My man!
New York Knicks - Orlando Magic - New York Knicks (-4.5) - Lost! Well, that was unexpected. Randle was not that offensive in this game.
Memphis Grizzlies - Golden State Warriors - Golden State Warriors (-5.5) - Lost! This was a shitty game for the Warriors and a good one for the Memphis bench. I watched the whole game and they found their offensive guys through GG Jackson and Vince Williams Jr.

Congratulations to all the winners yesterday.
I backed the Jazz and had a good win, it was fun watching them play.

Later 3 games only.
The 76ers playing back-to-back, so you might want to reconsider the bets or the spreads.
Here are my picks.
Philadelphia 76ers - Denver Nuggets - Denver Nuggets ML Like I said 76ers are playing back-to-back so might as well try to bet for the other team which ain't an average one.

Phoenix Suns - Sacramento Kings - Phoenix Suns (-2.5) - The Suns may want to continue their winning streak while their stars are all healthy so they can rise to the rankings. Bradley Beal had been playing in good condition so take advantage of it while he is still hot.

Los Angeles Clippers - Oklahoma City Thunder - Los Angeles Clippers (-3.5) I failed to win my bet for the Clippers last time, I hope this time it will be different. Don't underestimate OKC because they are also a strong team.

Good luck everyone.

It looks like some of you might have gotten some games last night. I was out yesterday so I wasn't able to put any bet.

I'm taking the Sixers ML against the Nuggets at this home court, currently the odds is @1.83. I think this is already a very attractive odds for a ML and game between two top teams.

Suns vs Kings, another great game, I'll pick the Suns in a close match, -2.5 @1.74.
