As much as I'm a devoted Warriors fan, I have to face the reality of their recent struggles. Two significant losses, first to the Cavaliers and then the Timberwolves, make it questionable to support them again. For this game, I'll likely watch without placing a bet. Alternatively, I might consider the over 220.5, hoping the Warriors will rediscover their rhythm.

I still personally find this game intriguing because, on paper, both teams are playoff contenders. I'm just hoping that the Clippers will manage to surprise the Nuggets, who are currently 6-0 at home, while the Clippers are 0-5 on the road. The stats are quite interesting, with no apparent factors favoring the Clippers to win. So, if they do pull off a victory, it's bound to create a buzz in the basketball community.

---

Another game also is the Warriors vs Timberwolves, it will be a rematch and if the Warriors will lose again, it will be their 3 losing streak at home.

I still find it hype though, Wemby and Chet will face each other, the last time they played was during the preseason where Wemby won the battle but as a team, OKC is quite better now since Chet is not the main player of the team, he'll experience lesser pressure compared to Wemby, but I still want to see their production so I have something to compare with.


They'll be embarrass again if they'll lose, but I'm quite surprise with the spread though, it's only -6 for the Nuggets considering they are at home and will be facing a struggling LA Clippers, it shoudl be at least -20 IMO. 

We’ve got a couple nationally televised games on tonight to keep things exciting. Not so hyped about the first one with the Spurs and Thunder, but the second game between the Clippers and the Nuggets might be fun to watch. The nuggets obviously should easily win, but the odds aren’t too great. Still, watching Denver slap LA around should lead to some interesting commentary from Chuck and the guys on TNT.

Stupid me!


I don't know what went through me to add Quentin Grimes' rebounds on that same game parlay player props.
Grrr. I hate myself. If I didn't add that last prop, I could still get x26.

1/3 for my team picks.
I chased my losses and bet for Over 239.5 on the game of the Sacramento Kings versus the Cleveland Cavaliers. I caught it before the 2nd half started.

When I saw Fox making 10 points in the first quarter, Vezenkov having a pretty start, and Monk and Keegan being infected by the shooting of Vezenkov, that's when I realized it could go far to 240.

Also, when I saw Fox would play that's when I knew the Cavaliers would be defeated and my bet was done and I was right. Fox is like the heart of the Kings and he makes everyone go back to their roles with energy just like what the commentator said. Monk became a shooter again, Keegan too, and Sabonis doesn't need to be a facilitator anymore with Fox around so he can focus on his inside offense and rebounding. They always play better with him around.

The last game ended in a loss so yeah it is good that I didn't bet for the Multi bet on this game, and had to go for the money line instead, but I was wrong sorry because instead of the Houston Rockets, I have bet for the Denver Nuggets instead It was a wrong highlight, so I manage to get 2 out of 4 on my bets,

Houston Rockets (2.50) VS Denver Nuggets (3.15) - LOST


This game, was a close one as the Denver Nuggets were leading the game I never thought that the Rockets could win the game but they did it, Jamal Murray still didn't play the game, and Nikola Jokic had a triple-double but Houston Rockets won the game it was all thanks to Jeff Green, Alperen Sengun, and Fred VanVleet,

Chicago Bulls (1.38) VS Detroit Pistons (3.15) - WIN


The Detroit Piston was winning the game at the beginning but the Chicago Bulls won the game after the 2nd quarter they managed to take the lead and it was all thanks to Cody White, Zach LaVine, Nikola Vucevic, DeMar DeRozan, and winning this game for sure,

San Antonio Spurs (2.07) VS Miami Heat (1.80) - WIN


Even with Victor Wembanyama on the team, the San Antonio Spurs were leading the team in the 1st half but a sudden burst in the points from the Miami Heat that led them to victory was led by Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo and Duncan Robinson,

Phoenix Suns (1.66) VS Oklahoma City Thunders (2.29) - LOST


My only loss I thought that the Phoenix Suns could easily win this game but the absence of Devin Booker had a greater impact on getting that much of a score and Josh Giddey, Chet Holmgren, Jalen Williams, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, had managed to get the victory and telling to my face that I lost this game,

Another upset days for NBA bettor out there especially for those of who keep choosing ML even with small odds. I dodged the bullet today by avoiding to bet since no one will ever thought that Rockets will beat Nuggets on close match even though Murray is not playing on Nuggets. The 4th quarter run of Rockets makes them catch up and seal the victory against this dominant team. Nuggets bench players doesn’t contribute and maybe the big contributing factor while Nuggets starting 5 is exhausted on the last quarter

Nuggets keeps losing on weaker teams and dominate strong team which is kinda scary now to bet with them if they are up against bottom tier team. 

Here are my bets and predictions for the game today

Los Angeles Clippers VS Memphis Grizzlies SCORE 101 -105 - LOST

This was amazing, it was a close game and I never knew that the Memphis Grizzlies could take the win they got a huge lead in the 1st half of the game for sure, but yeah Los Angeles Clippers for sure nearly turned the tables for this game but it was not enough as the Memphis Grizzlies got the upper hand for sure, Luke Kennard has 13 points, Bismack Biyombo was a double-double of 12 rebounds and 13 points, Marcus Smart has 17 points, and Desmond Bane got 27 points,

Philadelphia 76ers VS Indiana Pacers SCORE 137 - 126 - WIN

For sure the Philadelphia 76ers were pretty much in the lead at the beginning of the game but for sure Tyrese Haliburton was great in this game he got a double-double of 17 assists and 25 points for the game but Tyrese Maxey didn't let the Pacers do what they like, as Tobias Harris has 18 points, Joel Embiid has a double-double of 13 rebounds and 37 points, and Tyrese Maxey got 50 points that win this game,

New Orleans Pelican VS Dallas Mavericks SCORE 124 - 136 - WIN

Another win for me but for sure the Pelicans did struggle in this game Dallas Mavericks did great for sure Tim Hardaway Jr. got 15 points, Luka Doncic got 30 points and Kyrie Irving got 35 points, for sure it was a perfect win for the Dallas Mavericks but the New Orleans Pelican had this game with their spread points,

Golden State Warriors VS Minnesota Timberwolves SCORE 110 - 116 - LOST

Now I thought that the Golden State Warriors would win this but sure I was wrong it was a close game and Stephen Curry did a great performance again but it was not enough if Chris Paul didn't do well then the Golden State Warriors could not win, Jonathan Kuminga got 10 points, Dario Saric has a double-double of 10 rebounds 11 points, Klay Thompson got 16 points, Stephen Curry got 38 points,

4 games later.

First pick.
Sacramento Kings - Cleveland Cavaliers - Cleveland Cavaliers (-1.5)
De'Aaron Fox is doubtful to play that's why I picked the Cavaliers and Trey Lyles is ruled out. Domantas Sabonis will probably have a hard time scoring with the twin towers there to protect the rim, Allen and Mobley.

Second pick.
Boston Celtics - New York Knicks - Boston Celtics (-7.5)
Home game for the Celtics. This team is hot on winning streaks and I bet they won't let their fans down. It will just be a matter of the spreads if they will be covered. The Knicks will need to work their ass defending the three offensive monsters of the Celtics.

Third pick.
Toronto Raptors - Washington Wizards - Toronto Raptors (-7.5)
The Raptors rely heavily on their defense, Wizards on their offense. But I don't like the selfish way the Wizards are playing like teamwork doesn't even exist on them. Whoever gets the ball can shoot it anytime he wants and this had been their problem for a long time. That Wizards team badly needs a leader to make things better.

Going to pass on the Bucks versus the Bulls. Lillard is probable to play. I will check it out before game time.

Good luck everyone.

Yeah, I thought they are gonna win since they were in control at the start of the 4th quarter, but seemed unable to find their shooting in the 4th, outscored by the OKC 31-13. that's unacceptable. Booker and Durant are the ones that could really work on this team, Bradley is still figuring out how to fit.


A disappointing loss. I believe I have no more business with the Warriors. I won't be backing them in the following games until they address their issues. While Curry has been producing like an MVP, the impact on the team is not positive. I'd rather see him score at least 20 points per game with Klay and Wiggins getting into the groove every time.

Houston Rockets are strong! Winning against the Denver Nuggets, damn.
Alperen Sengun, that dude is going to do some great moments in this league as he grows with it.

1/3 made 2/4 for me tonight. Chased my losses by taking the Over 217.5 in the game of Warriors vs. Timberwolves.

Timberwolves are also strong. They are balanced and more improved and they are playing better than last season. I think their roster is a good balance. They have the AntMan for offense paired with KAT and their defense is scary with Gobert in the middle. I might not bet against this team on their next game versus the Warriors again.

Bench gave the Timberwolves a bit of a scare in the final seconds.  They made it to a 4-point difference and almost 2 points if only Kuminga could make his layup. Steph Curry badly needs some help though. I want to see Steve Kerr using those bench next time.

Congratulations to all the winners.

Unfortunately Suns lose on this, they were up at the start of 4th quarter but they weren't good enough with their defense allowing the OKC to have their big run.


Again, Warriors lose big time, that's two in a row already, Curry scored    38 points but still not enough to even make it a close game. 3rd quarter was suppose to be the quarter they are dominating, it was on favor by the visiting team.

Looking good, @owengtam09! You only need the Suns to win to make it perfect.

It's a good thing you didn't bet on the Warriors; they've been so inconsistent in their last two games. But as for me, I'm still backing them as who knows, they might end their cold streak with the game against the Timberwolves. Anyway, the Suns vs. OKC is currently a close game, but since your bet is on the moneyline, I'd say you'll get a win on that.

For sure shooting, slumps happen even though players are well-known that they are not going to miss in the shooting, but it really happens so yeah both games are still great even though I lost both here is another bet for today's game and hopefully I get back what I lost,

My bets and predictions for the NBA games for today

Los Angeles Clippers VS Memphis Grizzlies

The stake odds are 1.32 for the Clippers and 3.50 for the Grizzlies, for now, Mason Plumlee and Brandon Boston Jr. can not play for the Los Angeles Clippers while Derrick Rose, and Brandon Clarke can not play for the Memphis Grizzlies, Jake LaRavia, and Xavier Tillman, are questionable if they are able to play for the Grizzlies and Steven Adams is out for this season, for me the number of injuries for the Grizzlies and mostly key players that is why I think that the Los Angeles Clippers would win this game,

Philadelphia 76ers VS Indiana Pacers

The stake odds are 1.39 for the 76ers and 3.15 for the Pacers, for now, Kelly Oubre Jr. can not play for the Philadelphia 76ers, while Aaron Nesmith and Jalen Smith are both questionable if they can play for the Indiana Pacers, for this game both teams are doing great but because of those Questionable that is why Philadelphia 76ers have the edge on the odds, but for me I think that the Philadelphia 76ers can get this win, so my picks are the 76ers,

New Orleans Pelican VS Dallas Mavericks

The stake odds are 2.31 for the Pelicans and 1.65 for the Mavericks, Naji Marshall, and Herbert Jones, both are questionable if they can play the game for the New Orleans Pelicans, Jose Alvarado, CJ McCollum, and Trey Murphy III can not play for the New Orleans Pelicans, while Maxi Kleber can not play for the Dallas Mavericks, for this game the Pelicans is not doing great so much, but the Dallas Mavericks is doing great aswell, so my pick is the Dallas Mavericks,

Golden State Warriors VS Minnesota Timberwolves

The stake odds are 1.76 for the Warriors and 2.12 for the Timberwolves, the Golden State Warriors don't have an injury so they Golden State Warriors doesn't have any injury, so while Jordan McLaughlin, and Jaylen Clark, can not play for the Minnesota Timberwolves, and both Anthony Edwards and Naz Reid are questionable if they can play for the Minnesota Timberwolves, for me for sure I am going with the Golden State Warriors winning this game,

This 2 bets is very painful because the odds is too small due to the advantage of both GSW and Atlanta in terms of stats yet they are both defeated due to unexpected poor performance.

There’s a lot of bettors in my local that suffer huge loss on Atlanta since everyone is expecting that Miami will be an easy game for them due to the absence of Butler and Herro. Bam and the bench still massacre the full roster of Atlanta. 

I will never be posting these results but I will still be sharing them here I forgot to share my bet for these two games and both game bets were lost so I was really never glad about it, but still here is the result,

Atlanta Hawks VS Miami Heat

Surprise because at the start of the game, the Miami Heat got their huge lead against the Atlanta Hawks which is never expected as many have expected that the Hawks would win this, the Miami Heat got the spread for this game while the Atlanta Hawks were struggling to keep this game together, Kyle Lowry, Josh Richardson, Jamie Jaquez Jr. and Bam Adebayo did a great job in getting this game a win for the Miami Heat,



Golden State Warriors VS Cleveland Cavaliers

It was a close game for the Warriors against the Cleveland Cavaliers,  though this could have been a win for the Warriors the Cavaliers got another close win against the Warriors, and in this game, for sure Max Strus, Evan Mobley, Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, and Caris LeVert made an exceptional game for this one that the Warriors is not ready yet,

I missed all the games today, I am a bit busy. Just looking at the total stats of that game and I can see that the Warriors got sloppy with the ball again.
20 turnovers against 10 of the Cavaliers. 5 steals against 13 of the Cavaliers. Wow! It seems like it's just Curry who is always hot, they will badly need one more man stepping up his game because he cannot shoulder this all anymore.

11 games tomorrow. Whew!

I like the Nuggets playing on the road. But I don't want to be too greedy so here is my bet.
Houston Rockets - Denver Nuggets - Denver Nuggets (-1.5)
Jamal Murray is still out and I think it will be for the rest of this month. But, the Nuggets can still win their games despite their missing star.

2nd bet.
New Orleans Pelicans - Dallas Mavericks - Dallas Mavericks (-1.5)
The Mavs had been playing well too especially their rookie who had been contributing under the rim. Derreck Lively II. Plus, Luka is just too scary when he finds his rhythm, what he did against the Clippers is damn good.

3rd bet.
Los Angeles Clippers - Memphis Grizzlies - Los Angeles Clippers (-10.5)
I have been waiting for the Clippers to win one game with James Harden. This should be it. I hope. Their confidence must be built again and their chemistry will probably be higher if they can win one, something to celebrate.

Good luck everyone.

I lost my bet on the Warriors vs. Cavaliers game, but I'm definitely backing them once again. Hopefully, Draymond won't make any mistakes that result in him being thrown out of the game. The Warriors are currently on a 2-game losing streak, and I feel they may come back to win this one. Yes, the size of the Wolves might bother the Warriors again, but as long as they improve their outside shooting, they have a chance to win.

Curry needs some help from the other known scorers of the team—Kuminga, Thompson, and Wiggins, especially Wiggins. He must step up and score at least 20 points, and he can do that by using his athleticism. They can't afford to lose again this time.

The Warriors will be playing again tomorrow against the team that handed the Celtics and Nuggets their first loss. They are currently at -2, and I'm not sure if this spread appeals to you because if they win, they can easily cover it. However, considering the size of the Wolves, they are quite bigger than the Cavaliers with Gobert and KAT playing together, so we might see the same problem the Warriors showed on their game today.
