Making my early picks for the games Tomorrow it is now Christmas here and the games are getting exciting but I feel like the emotion of players was reset after the In Season Tournament teams changed their pace from getting competitive to being not into it because of the Holidays but well this is just what I am feeling right now but anyway here are my picks for the game in the NBA tomorrow,

Memphis is still perfect since he came back, this game he scored 30 points from a very efficient FG percentage.
Looks like the swag Memphis is back, with Ja Morant their leader of course, they might suprise the teams who have a higher standing than them as they are slowly rising now.


We need to have a break for a while, spend time with our family and enjoy our winnings. For those who aren't, at least we can minimize our losses. 

It was a roller coaster ride. I even had the thought that the Brooklyn Nets could win that one but Murray was energized and helped out with the Nuggets offense.
Luckily, I also won my last bet for the Warriors yesterday and I hit just the exact spread. -10.5 and the Warriors won by 11. So it's a perfect day for me. 3/3.

I didn't bet any today despite a large number of games listed. 13 games to be exact. Who made a long parlay? I wish you won it for a Christmas gift.
Damn, Grizzlies had been winning their games. They are now on their 3rd winning streak. We must now be careful betting against them. Ja Morant's impact is definitely being recognized.

We don't have games tomorrow but there will be Christmas games the next day.
Good luck to everyone and Happy Holidays.

Lakers were on a losing streak so they need to win, to stop the bleeding. I think Lebron was out on the Lakers' previous games but he was in this game and lead his team with 40 points and perfect from beyond the arc with 5/5, that's unusual to him, so that probably also had help the Lakers to win.

It may be the case that the Suns are simply lost right now. But at the same time, there is the situation that they just succeeded at the beginning of the season because the other teams are just sorting it out. At present, the teams may be sorted out strategies to beat the Durant-Booker reliant Suns.

This squad without a doubt stays as a playoff team. But I can likewise say very similar for the Golden State Warriors. And similar to the Memphis Grizzlies with Ja Morant back to the squad. That makes twelve of them worthy of the playoff which only needs eight.

Thanks. That ending was like a rollercoaster ride from not covering to covering, as the Nets didn't want to let it go until the final minute.

I'll be fading the Lakers today, James and AD still GTD, but I assume they'll play when they always switch it up before the match starts. OKC already beat the Lakers a few weeks ago by double digits and I can't imagine the results will change this time when the Lakers failed against the Bulls a few days ago.



Edit: My OKC ticket is probably dead with the Lakers shooting lights out.

WOW! Thanks, I got a perfect win on yesterday's game I really never expected that I would make a perfect bet for this game but still it is not a multi-bet because I think it is hard winning with Multibets, but here are the results of my picks for yesterday's game for the NBA,

Brooklyn Nets (2.49) VS Denver Nuggets (1.56) - WIN


Just like I thought the Brooklyn Nets don't really stand a chance against the Nuggets and I have noticed from the start it is not enough what Victor Wembanyama alone can cater on the table, but Wembanyama was injured and can not play on this game that have gotten the Brooklyn Nets into a more dire position as the Denver Nuggets crashed them in the 2nd half, it was the tandem of Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic that made this game win for the Nuggets,

Miami Heat (1.79) VS Atlanta Hawks (2.07) - WIN


It was a close match for these two teams it goes back and forth but the Miami Heat just got many to spare the Miami Heat did win but no thanks to Jimmy Butler, but it was Duncan Robinson and Tyler Herro who didn't let the Atlanta Hawks make any adjustment or the Hawks adjusted but it failed on them,

Sacramento King (1.73) VS Phoenix Suns (2.16) - WIN


Now another game that I thought the Phoenix Suns would win but instead the Sacramento Kings did a great job of keeping the lead for themselves it was like Devin Booker was not yet 100% in this game and Kevin Durant wasn't reliable enough to make the lead, but the Kings got many roster that could have potential in the future,  Harrison Barnes, Keegan Murray, De'Aaron Fox and the triple-double of Domantas Sabonis,

It perfect Bet for me in this game I was really surprised with how my picked teams were doing great despite their opponent was also a team that could surely get into the playoffs, here is the result it was a juicy win for sure,

Philadelphia 76ers VS Toronto Raptors SCORE 121 - 111 - WIN

The Toronto Raptors got a great start for this game and it was in the 1st quarter that they cemented a great lead in the game however the Philadelphia 76ers were turning the game so much and in the 2nd quarter they decided that enough was enough so they made that lead against the Toronto Raptors that Pascal Siakam did a great job against the Philadelphia 76ers but the 76ers still manage in winning with Joel Embiid double-double of 10 rebounds and 31 points, Tobias Harris got 33 points and Tyrese Maxey double-double of 10 assist and 33 points for this game,

Sacramento Kings VS Phoenix Suns SCORE 120 - 105 - WIN

The Sacramento Kings from start to finish have managed to stay on the lead but it was a close game the Phoenix Suns were close by waiting to take the lead, but the Sacramento Kings didn't allow the Phoenix Suns to manage and get the lead, so it was like a one-sided game but the Suns just didn't get the opportunity in making one herself, Kevin Durant and Devin Booker looks OK but the Sacramento Kings Harrison Barnes got 19 points, Keegan Murray got 21 points, De'Aaron Fox got 23 points and Domantas Sabonis has a triple-double of 11 rebounds 12 assist and 28 points,

Golden State Warriors VS Washington Wizards SCORE 129 - 118 - WIN

The Golden State Warriors got to see Jordan Poole again but the Warriors didn't show any remorse towards Jordan Poole and they got the W to win at 1st the Washington Wizards were gaining momentum at 1st and leading the game but it just lasted during the 1st quarter, because the Golden State Warriors manage to make a great goal lead Jordan Poole managed to get 25 points but because of lack of defense and the presence of Poole with the defense is really lacking you can clearly see that he was just standing there the Warriors won, Trayce Jackson-Davis 15 rebounds and 10 points, Klay Thompson got 20 points, Jonathan Kuminga got 22 points and Stephen Curry non-other got 30 points,

That wasn't really the biggest problem of the team, Bradley Beal even barely played this season and yet Suns were winning, either with Booker or Durant playing or both of them are on the floor. Let's just say they were struggling now but I'm sure they'll figure that out, they are 3-7 in their last 10, same with the Lakers who are 4-10 and are on a 4 losing streak, but we didn't conclude them as a bad team as whether we like it or not, this team is still a playoff team and I'm sure both teams will qualify this season.

Sabonis was practically right on track with his shots. He made the most of the absence of Nurkic and each time he is defended tight it opens the door to his teammates. He is not Jokic but Sabonis this season is becoming a better passer. This is the advantage of a fair offense not like the Suns just depending on Durant and Booker.

The bench truly needs to begin helping so they can win their next matches. The absence of Bradley Beal brought significant misfortune to the team. That athlete is paid a fourth of the team budget and but is always absent from their matches. If it was spent on a quality bench maybe the Suns is not in the bottom.

We can now tell how important Nurkic is to the team, without his size, he can't intimidate attackers on the paint, and as an evident to that, Sabonis were able to take advantage and score 28 points. Although if you look at the statistics, the Suns have outrebounded the Kings with 45-37 advantage but there inside points are just too much coming from the home team.

Durant hand 28, while Booker had 24. I can pretty much say that both had a great game, but as you've pointed out, there's not much help coming from the bench. So I think, it order to keep the bench going, they need to move the ball well and don't just rely too much on Durant and Booker.

For me it's another loss for the Suns, I wanted to think that they can make it a close game against the Sacramento Kings to over cover + spread. But KD and Booker is not enough, they really need someone to spark coming from the bench.

It's really a different Phoenix team now, and with Nurkic out in this game, Sabonis has a field day and Fox just uses his speed and then easy score after that Euro step either against Allen or Little. I might stay away from betting on them until they got a team below .500 in their next couple of games.

Lucky greed Dave1!
That was a close game at the end but thankfully the Nuggets somehow won the game with 5 points. That offensive rebound of Murray after the free throw was the real savior.
Congratulations to you too @ralle14! You two both got the exact spread needed and won it.

There are still two games left that are now on halftime. The Sacramento Kings versus the Phoenix Suns and the Golden State Warriors versus the Washington Wizards. For those who like to bet, the lines are still open.

Man, I wish the Warriors could get hot in the 3rd quarter. I am at -10.5 and I need them to blowout the Wizards but they are only up by 2 points as of the time of writing this. Steph Curry is 4/8 in three points shots, I think that's a good sign.

2 wins, one more and I get a perfect day again, a great Christmas gift for me.

I put a few Satoshis down on the Chicago Bulls versus San Antonio Spurs last night.  The bulls (my favorite team) have certainly been a mixed bag of things, but I felt pretty confident with the way they've been playing without Zach Lavine.  I now only wish I had bet more lol.

What is the deal with VICTOR WEMBANYAMA only getting 5 rebounds? I only slightly watched as I had the game on while I was doing other things around the house.  But only 5 boards from him seems crazy.

I did the same because the Nets are on a downward trend while the Nuggets are starting to improve on their road form after picking up a few wins recently.

In my view, the Nuggets should blow them out or at least win by double digits, but I guess the bookies have to respect the Nets because they're still one of the best home teams in covering handicaps.

I will put a bet on the Nuggets, and tail you in this one, but i think they can cover at least -4.5 @1.91, (greedy,  ).

Yes, I agree, playing at home Warriors mentality is very different, -9.5 for me at 1.72.

The Sixers and Raptors games are about to start, but I'm skipping on this one, although I think the Sixers will win definitely, it's just a matter on the big is the point spread.

Best of luck to everyone.

No doubts odds are not good but still good because I added few teams from soccer as well which are making my parlay very big with good payout is also coming and things are looking good for these all are good.
I was not regular punter on NBA but after watching many things here on this thread and having good results from many posters now following regularly and doing good job, but my personal try for the having own things never give me good response because currently I have no good knowledge of this all.
Just going with NBA teams mostly we have no good odds without spread points, but this one is more risky for the person which having not good knowledge and just following others.

My bets and predictions for games today for the NBA

Philadelphia 76ers VS Toronto Raptors

The stake odds for this game are 1.31 for the 76ers and 3.65 for the Raptors, Patrick Beverley, Robert Covington, and De'Anthony Melton are all questionable if they can play this game for the 76ers Mo Bamba and Nicolas Batum both can not play for the Philadelphia 76ers, while Christian Koloko has an illness and can not play for the Toronto Raptors for this game even though there are many injuries for the 76ers those are not key players for the 76ers so my pick is the Philadelphia 76ers,

Sacramento Kings VS Phoenix Suns

The stake odds for this game are 1.73 for the Kings and 2.16 for the Phoenix Suns, JaVale McGee, and Malik Monk are both questionable if they can play for the Kings, and Alex Len has an Ankle injury and can not play for the Sacramento Kings, while Josh Okogie is questionable if he can play for the Suns, Jusuf Nurkic, Bradley Beal, and Damion Lee all can not play for the Phoenix Suns, for this game the Sacramento Kings even though Malik Monk is questionable I really think that he can still go with this game so my pick is the Sacramento Kings,

Golden State Warriors VS Washington Wizards

The stake odds for this game are 1.15 for the Warriors and 5.80 for the Wizards, Andrew Wiggins, and Brandin Podziemski both are questionable if they can play for the Warriors, Gary Payton II has a Calf Injury and can not play for the Golden State Warriors while Delon Wright, Johnny Davis, and Danilo Gallinari all can not play for  the Washington Wizards for this game It is really obvious on who I am picking and that is the Golden State Warriors,

Not sure about the Heat vs Hawks ML, odds are very close, and the it's -1.5 for the Heat. Denver and Sixers though might be a "sure" win. And if there's a ML that you might want to add, it could be Golden State against the Wizards. But I'm taking GSW at -10.5.

Kings and Suns are tricky, but I have +4.5 for the Suns, they really need that one big win against a good team, and in the road.

Trying to turn my luck back to me today in NBA as last night was really bad so here are my pick for today :

Sixers ML

Heat ML

Denver ML

Odds are not so great but with I'm also thinking to wait for live odds , maybe they will climb a bit up. I also had an idea to trow Suns there but I really can't trust this team , especially when they play against Knicks who are coming after a well deserved victory in Brooklyn.
