They are tied at 106 now, this game has been entertaining so far but the big question is if the Hornets will be able to cover the spread. We know how bad this Wizards team is, just hope that they'll be careless in the crucial minutes so Hornets will win and cover, good luck, there's still time yahoo.

Nuggets vs Magic is going to be a good game. I don't feel like Denver will run away with it with Murray being out. They'll probably still take the game IMO.
I have the Hornets -4 myself tonight(Last leg of a parlay but the other games are NCAA). What's everyone think there?

EDIT: Hornets currently down 7 at the half. Need some offense.

True. Their game yesterday against the Hawks was so intense due to both sides hitting their shots 60% of the time.

---

This might be a trap, but I have to go with Magic's first-half handicap (+2.5), as it still looks decent when the Nuggets don't have Murray on their lineup. Also, it's a road game for the Nuggets, which makes me think it evens out because they didn't win by a lot against the Pistons in their previous road game.

I'm taking the Phoenix Suns over the Warriors in today's game, ML at 1.74 is already attractive to me.

Nuggets vs Magic, - Nuggets -1.5 at 1.73. Although Jamal Murray is ruled out again in this game, the Nuggets is deep with Jokic, MPJ, Gordon, KCP and Reggie Jackson.

Good game to watch is the Bucks going up against the Celtics. Two top team in the East, but I think the Celtics are going to win this one.

3-0 last night bringing my 18 day total to 31-23.  A little separation from the books.  A lot of games on the books tonight and I like 3 homes teams here tonight.

Cavs +3.5 against Miami.  Think cavs clear here and actually win might take the ML.

Pacers -2.5 at home.  Haliburton is turning into a verified superstar (knicks whiffed on him).  Pacers keep rolling and dominate tonight

Hawks -1.5 at home.  Solid team at home they shoukd clear.

Good luck tonight everyone!

We can't deny his brilliance, he is called the king for a reason. However, on the chance of winning an MVP award again, I doubt that because at his age, I don't think he could sustain maintaining his good production in the last few games.

In the list on points average per game, he isn't even included in the top 10.

I believe Pacers are the top offensive team this season so far, just like their last game against the Hawks, they scored 157 points, that's impressive.

LeBron plays insanely good and I won't be shocked to actually see him winning MVP this year if he will continue to be as dominant as it is but his team really needs to pick up the pace and follow him as soon as possible and last night was a great example of them doing that.

I must also say that besides LeBron , I'm really impressed how Pacers are playing this season and I can say with confidence that this team could have a deep run this year in the playoffs

That's a lot of bet bro, good luck with that.

Finally, a perfect day.

I trusted my instincts to avoid the team picks and it was worth it. The only game that got me rattled a bit to have an imperfect day is the Phoenix Suns not covering the -11.5. There was a time when the Trail Blazers cut the lead to 7 when KD was resting. It was Jerami Grant who made it happen, he ain't giving up on that team of young players.

Anyway, loads of games today.
14 to be exact. Please be careful with your picks especially those who played yesterday. A chance of an exhausted team will come especially those who will travel on the road.

Orlando Magic - Denver Nuggets - Denver Nuggets (-2.5) @1.73 Over 215.5 @1.76 Singles.

Second. Two picks too.

More action, more fun. I'm okay with hitting 6 out of 10, that would already give me a profitable day. GL to all!

I haven't made any bets today but here is my result on Yesterday's NBA bets

New Orleans Pelicans VS Sacramento Kings SCORE 129 - 93 - LOST

The Sacramento Kings got a great start but they got busted in the remaining quarters well for sure the New Orleans Pelicans just stopped Harrison Barnes and De'Aaron Fox from hugging the points and it is not looking good for the Sacramento Kings the big men of the New Orleans Pelicans was great in getting the rebounds because of Jonas Valanciunas, Herb Jones got 18 points, Zion Williamson got 26 points, and Brandon Ingram got 31 points,

Chicago Bulls VS Miami Heat SCORE 100 - 118 - WIN

From start to finish the Miami Heat was in the advantage in this game and the Chicago Bulls didn't get any quarter win or lead in this game, but for sure the Chicago Bulls got a great spread on their points, but the Miami Heat just got sharper and wiser, For this game Jaime Jaquez Jr. got 19 points, Jimmy Butler just got 16 points, Duncan Robinson got 22 points, and Bam Adebayo has a double-double of 11 rebounds and 23 points,

Minnesota Timberwolves VS New York Knicks SCORE 117 - 100 - WIN

The Minnesota Timberwolves are scary right now from start to finish in this game they are dominating it, and the Knicks' Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle stand no chance against their team the Minnesota Timberwolves have gotten the score spread for the team in this game both Mike Conley Jr. and Nickeil Alexander-Walker 11 points Rudy Gobert 16 points, Karl-Anthony Towns got 20 points and Anthony Edwards has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 23 points,

Golden State Warriors VS Houston Rockets SCORE 121 - 116 - WIN

The Golden State Warriors crushed the Houston Rockets at the start of the game until the 3rd quarter then the Rockets managed to get their points increased in the remainder of the 4th quarter but it was not enough as the lead of the Golden State Warriors was too much for them, Fred VanVleet is keeping the team together and making plays for the team and Alperen Sengun has a double-double of 13 rebounds and 30 points but it was not enough to the Warriors team, The Point GOD manages to get a double-double of 12 assists and 15 points while making his plays Dario Saric got 18, Klay Thompson got 20 points and Stephen Curry got 32 points,

You could have won that bet if the Jazz hadn't been shooting bricks. The Lakers outscored them significantly, with a 32-point win, and the Jazz were limited to less than 100 points in the game. Both JC and Markkanen were on lockdown, so the offense wasn't flowing for the typically high-scoring Jazz. If I'm not mistaken, this is their first game where they didn't reach at least 100 points. Just a bad game for the Jazz.

You're at a 1-1 record if you go through with it. But based on my four bets, it seems I'll finish with a 2-2 record since the 76ers lost, and the Jazz vs. Lakers game looks like it'll be a low-scoring one. At least we're even; we'll give it another shot tomorrow and hopefully end up in the profit zone.

I'm also on the Pacers' spread, as I think the Hawks will likely win and then fail to cover the spread because they're somewhat bad at covering spreads.

One of the few things going against this bet is probably the road disadvantage since we've seen the other good teams yesterday perform on the road and they didn't have the easiest time winning against teams with slightly worse records.

1-2 again last night, bringing my 17 total to 28-23.  Need to have a good night tonight.  Pelicans looked good way better than I thought they'd do.  Tonight here are my 3 picks:

Lakers -7.5 at home.  On TNT they shoukd be able to handle this game easily.

Pacers +3.5.  I know they are on the road against a tough Atlanta team but think they can pull this one out.

Magic -1.5 at home and basically a pickem. 

Good luck tonight everyone!

A lot of close matchups today. I think the only bet I’d feel comfortable making is the Phoenix Suns beating the Portland Trail Blazers in a parlay with the Los Angeles Lakers beating the Utah Jazz. The odds probably aren’t good enough to bother with single bets, but I feel pretty good that both those teams should pull out victories tonight.

Finally, a 3/4 bet. Rawr.  I thought I would be stuck with 1/3 and 2/4 but thankfully something came my way.

A bit of luck too as I dodged a bullet on that Boston Celtics bet. Damn, the Charlotte Hornets killed it. LaMelo Ball putting some crazy numbers in his stats.
Another unexpected is the Sacramento Kings being blown out by the Pelicans. Fox is off, and so is Keegan and Monk. Combine that and the Kings will surely lose.

5 games In-Season tournament later.
1st bet.
Orlando Magic - Toronto Raptors - Over 213.5 @1.74
Magic scored 128 points on their meet against the Pacers. Raptors also score 100+ on their last 4 games.

Philadelphia 76ers - Cleveland Cavaliers - Over 218.5 @1.77
76ers range score is 110-130 every game. The Cavaliers also 100-120.

Phoenix Suns - Portland Trail Blazers - Phoenix Suns (-11.5) @1.73
Hoping that spread will be covered.

Just one team pick for today.
Good luck everyone.

Tailing on these two picks. Philly has been so good in covering a high spread, and though they'll be hosting the Cavaliers which I believe is also a strong team but without Mitchell the home team would be able to take advantage on the situation.

On the 2nd bet, Indiana vs Hawks, these two teams loves to run the floor so most of their games are high scoring, so although 251 points is quite high on paper, but considering their production in average, that sure is easy to reach, plus I have a feeling that this game is going to be a close, so another factor that would make the game into over is the OT.

The game was under control by the Celtics, but the home team didn't give up, putting up a strong competition. It was a good battle between JT and Ball, with Ball ultimately securing the win in a thrilling game. However, we can't ignore the fact that Charlotte has been consistently struggling, so I wouldn't put too much trust in them even with this huge win.

Anyway, I'm sharing my picks for the later games.

orlando -1.5
Philly -7.5
indiana vs Hawks (over 251)
lakers vs Utah (over 236)

Congrats to you mate if you have pulled the trigger for the Rockets. I thought that Curry won't play but still i bet for the Rockets. They were just lucky on the 3's that's why they put some wide gap in the third quarter, 21 out of 43 from the rainbow, that was huge and for me that's not good for the Warriors to heavily rely on the 3's as not all the time you are lucky from that range.

Your wish is granted, LOL. The Timberwolves had much control over the game, and the -2.5 at home was probably the easiest bet on the board. You could have bumped it up a bit to increase the odds, but a win is a win, mate, so congratulations to you.

Out of the eight games, only four had the favored teams covering, making it a 50-50 situation. I wasn't so focused on the spread; I was more interested in the total of a particular team, especially in the Charlotte game. Good thing it went to OT—I could have lost my bet otherwise.
