I'm going with pretty much the exact same bet i had on Wednesday with Philly and Atlanta: 76ers -1.5 + Under 239.5 + Embiid 20+ pts total odds 1.98 lost another shitty blowout, Embiid with 18pts this time lol Hawks are still without Bogdanovic and Huerter but get back Young in the starting lineup (coming off an ankle injury), let's just hope it's not a 30pts blowout at the half so Jojo can get his 20+ pts. lol I will probably update my post and add a bet or two more, decent games today... edit;* it's a new day, another opportunity for Westbrook to record a 3double: https://i.ibb.co/gZn0SSg/zdthhhg.png won* a little something on the Blazers v Nets game: https://i.ibb.co/xJt09j9/dhzgf.png won* with a win tonight the Suns will top the western conference, give me the Suns ml, super motivated spot for them : https://i.ibb.co/YT0sChd/sdfhg.png won

I was two tickets away from topping my personal best of 77% in a single day, a rebound from Garland and maybe a three from Embiid would've been much appreciated, 11/16 still decent though. Don't like what we have today, matchups seem off, probably it's just me...maybe because i'm preoccupied with the NFL draft and heavily invested in a few bets there, idk, but here are a few tickets anyway: Edwards 15+ pts + GSW +4.5 + Under 249.5 total odds 1.75 lostGood luck to those backing the Warriors to bounce back from their embarrassing loss to the Mavericks on national television, i'm not one of them lol. I remember how they lost to the Raptors by 50 points and then got smacked by Atlanta the next game, +4.5 gotta be in that safe range, i just can't trust the Warriors, period. Edwards has scored 15 or more points in 16 of their last 18 games, as for the over, 250 seem like a big number. Middleton 20+ pts/reb/ast + U248.5 + Bucks -4.5 total odds 1.60 lostMiddleton hasn't covered the above spread only 3 times the entire year, that's pretty impressive. Bucks appear to be in full squad, not resting anyone today (at least not at the time of writing this lol), and i don't see the Rockets scoring many points, so my over/under should be fine.

image source: https://twitter.com/FantasyPros/status/1387829547438166019Draft day, who's excited? First two draft picks seem like locks with Lawrence to Jacksonville and Zach Wilson to the Jets, but about the Niners? Trey Lance's name has been trending a lot the last couple of days as the 49ers selection at #3. Not a Falcons fan but interesting to see if they trade down and give up the 4th pick, imagine Pitts with Ridley and Jones. I have close to $1k wager on Najee Harris✓ and Patrick Surtain II rip* to be the first drafted RB and CB, so yeah, pray for me! lol ^ Not a huge payout, but i'm confident that both bets will land. I did thorough research on both positions and watched some tape, and i see that Mel Kiper and the rest of the mock draft gurus agree with me and my picks.

I'm on today with two tickets, one is Westbrook's special and the other, 76ers to get a routine win vs Hawks second unit. 76ers - 3.5 + J.Collins 20+ pts/reb/ast + Embiid 20+ points total odds 2.00 lost at least the spread came through nicely.Pistons came out of nowhere to surprise Atlanta on Monday, Young is still missing and to make things worse they will be without Huerter and Bogdanovic tonight, that's just way too many bodies. That being said, i see Collins as their primary scorer, playmaker...etc. 76ers are in full squad and i expect them to get and an easy win here, might take the spread at - 9.5 as well, it is also a revenge spot for them, they were blown out in the first match between the two by 18pts. Philly all the way! Westbrook 15+ points + O9.5 assists + O9.5 rebounds @ 1.65 wonWestbrook broke Wilt's record for most triple-doubles in a month the other day, games is on ESPN, it's what he does best...stat padding

@darxiaomi, congrats on the win, you nailed it perfectly! I couldn't recognize PSG in the second half, they were absolutely terrible, all they had to do was catch City on counter attack early and end the game with a second goal. Instead, they gave up control and were punished by two, let's call it, easy goals...all three goals from set pieces though. I just don't see Man City losing at home in the reverse fixture...anyway, speaking of winnings, i got this little fucker, wish i had taken over 19.5 bookings each because it was paying almost double.

What happened to Milan in second part of season? It's difficult to pinpoint a single reason for their recent mediocre results, things are, imo, very complex. The campaign began well for them as you noted, with just one loss in their first 25-30 matches iirc, possibly the best performing team in all of Europe, and it just wasn't possible to keep up until the end, it was unsustainable as simple as that. The tight schedule (including their Europa League rendezvous) and multiple injuries in defense primarily resulted in rather unwanted draws against weaker opponents. And, although they have a reasonable amount of players to choose upfront, Pioli is forced to play with Kalulu and Tomori (neither of them has a place in this team) if Kjaer and Romagnoli are not available. I'll use Liverpool as an example: when your key guys (centre-backs) are absent, things get really difficult. Milan will almost certainly not qualify for the Champions League, Atalanta and Napoli have relatively easy remaining fixtures, and the final spot will probably go to Juventus, who have a direct match with Milan next week.

^ I had some doubts that the Celtics will cover that huge spread, but no way in hell i could see them losing by 21 points, Hornets won all four quarters. lol
By the way, these two teams could meet in the first round of the playoffs or the play-in, it won't be easy for the Celtics, as LaMelo is expected to return soon for CHA.
Anyway, decent week, can't really complain, i should be back around Tuesday with my picks, gl everyone!

^ I missed the early opportunity with -6.5, and now the line has jumped up to -8.5, which means to lay almost 10pts with the visiting team, and i hate laying double-digit numbers with anyone so i'll pass on the spread. Kemba ruined a bet for me in their last meeting, i believe i had him at O18.5 points and he only scored 12, so let's try Rozier today: Rozier 15+ pts + Celtics -1.5 + O195.5 total odds 1.86 lostRozier has scored 15 or more points in 10 of Charlotte's last 11 games. I expect the Celtics to win, but i'm slightly worried about the total, both teams appear to hit the under more often than not, i'm hoping 195.5 is low enough.

Happy to see Watford back with the big boys next season. Sportsbet must be delighted to have their name out there on not less than 3 teams Good going Watford and good going Sportsbet! Afaik, Sportsbet will not be the shirt sponsor for Watford next season, which was confirmed by two independent sources already. Well, that doesn't stop them from working together again in any capacity (maybe an official betting sponsor or something, like their deal with Arsenal), but yeah, Southampton should be the only team in EPL with the Sportsbet logo on their jerseys come next season...that's unless the UK government decided to ban gambling companies from sponsorship on shirts etc.

The Knicks were at it tonight again, they are just superhot right now, and that was their 9th consecutive win, the best right now in the NBA. ...and 12 straight covers against the spread , talk about missing the train lol, i'm curious how much more wins and covers will they get before it ends? I'm not sure when the Knicks last had a run like this, which is totally nuts but also well-deserved the way they are playing right now. Imagine if i told you a year ago that the Knicks will host a first-round playoff game, haha right, it's bound to happen though. A few tickets that have for today, my last couple of betbuilders, should have more time to do my singles come next week. Heat +4.5 + Vucevic 15+ pts + White 15+ pts/reb/ast + O188.5 total odds 1.90 wonI'm super mad at the Heat losing vs the short-handed Hawks a few days ago, hope they cover that alt spread. Bulls are still without LaVine, they can lose to teams like the Magic and the Cavs but beat Boston, go figure lol, not sure if they want to make the play-in or not, regardless Vucevic will get his 20 tonight. Zion 20+pts + Spurs + 11.5 + O213.5 total odds 1.67 wonI've no reservations about Zion's totals and the over, previous two meetings this season between the two were one-possession games, probably another close one. Lakers +10.5 + Drummond 20+ pts/reb/ + Doncic 20+ pts + Schroder 5+ assists total odds 1.83 lostCan't see the Lakers getting blown out (Porzingis is not playing), Drummond had a decent game vs Mavs with 19/13 just the other day, Doncic should top the 20 with ease and Schroder has covered 5 assists in 15 of the last 16 games for the Lakers.

So guys. Who'll lose tomorrow? Inter or Juve? Verona's defense has been abysmal these last few fixtures, and with Inter coming off two straight draws, it might be a long Sunday afternoon in Milan. Also, Verona has zero wins at San Siro against Inter (historically speaking)...if i were you, i'd mark that match off my list of possible upsets for tomorrow. As for Juventus, unlikely, can't see it happening, but i'm hoping for goals, Fiorentina's last three home matches have produced 5 or more goals, so i'm tempted to go for O3.5...we'll see. BTTS is coming in the other 2 games 100%. Or maybe I should say it would have come for sure if I did not put them on my ticket. This way I am a bit skeptical Weird seeing Sassuolo keep a clean sheet, Samp hit the post once and were not given a penalty in the second half, this one should have also been btts.

Can't believe Brentford managed to beat Bournemouth just now with a man down, regardless let's double down on Watford winning today. Millwall has nothing to play for, last three matches they have conceded 7 goals. Sarr anytime goalscorer @ 2.22 seems like a pretty good option too. Let's go Hornets!edit; 1:0 final, 80+ minutes without a goal, i genuinely thought this would be a 3 or 4 goals match, at least Sarr scored one for me.

I have two tickets on today's card, ml on three favorites, and Westbrook to get a triple-double against one of his former teams, OKC. Heat ml + Wizards ml + Clippers ml total odds 1.89 lost Hawks bench chipped in with 51pts Hawks will be without Young and Capela, while the Heat will have a full squad. I believe ATL's two missing pieces will be huge, and they will not be able to compensate for their absence. OKC is on a 12-game losing streak, and the Wizards are desperate to reach the play-in tournament at the very least, every game is a must win from now on. Clippers got a few guys back, so not really worried about them. Westbrook 15+ pts + O9.5 rebounds + O9.5 assists @ 1.70 won as of the start of the 4Q Westbrook with 30pts, wish i took at least 20... Mr. Triple-double is back in Oklahoma, where it all started, and i could totally see him putting up the above numbers without much sweat, 20+ points gets you even better odds... Gl, everyone!

Damn! That's quite unlucky especially with the Mavs bet, and to see 'em come back to win by double digits after giving away the opening quarter. Both Doncic and Randle were lit for you, it just wasn't enough, sorry. Yeah, both were pretty much destroyed in the first quarter, with the Knicks and Atlanta having nearly 80pts to begin the game, and Dallas had another slow start. I'm more pissed about Memphis losing though, had them +4.5 with Morant and Anderson spreads, i can't believe they lost to a gutted Clippers roster, they literally had Yogi Ferrell (a guy on a 10-day contract) beat them in the 4th and this was with Jaren Jackson Jr. back for the Grizzlies, i hope this loss doesn't bite them at the end of the season. Anyway, i still had a few winners, too bad i don't have time to play my regular singles and simply cook a stupid betbuilder for each game, i guess better than nothing, heh! Thoughts on the Lakers v Mavs totals O/U: 216?...line has moved up from 213.5 Under is 4-0 in Lakers last 4 games playing on 2 days rest. Under is 4-0 in Mavericks last 4 games playing on 0 days rest. Under is 10-1 in Mavericks last 11 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. source: https://www.covers.com/sport/basketball/nba/matchup/trends/242617

Six rounds and a month of football left before it's all concluded and we have our champion crowned. Trofo leapfrogged into third place with a monster 14pts performance, i guess i have to worry about him too now, 20pts ain't that much. Since this thread serves other purposes, such as bashing on Atalanta, these jerks had no business losing points today, they should've scored 3 or 4 before halftime, Muriel missed a three-foot sitter in the second, he probably misses one in a thousand on a bad day, then a red card and a goal from the logo (if i can use an NBA term). We should form an Atalanta hate club or something, who's with me?

It's been quiet, what are you guys liking today, we have a full 12 game card today? Randle 20+ pts + U233.5 + Knicks +10.5 total odds 1.78 lostBoth teams played last night and i usually like to go over in situations like this but i expect this one to a slow-paced game, playoffs type one. Knicks beat ATL twice already this season and i do favor them to win outright, currently on 7 game winning streak. As for Randle's totals, he should be able to get to 20 with ease imo, last time these two faced each other he went for 44 with 7 made 3s. Doncic 20+ pts + U232.5 + Mavs - 0.5 1Q total odds 1.73 lostMavs fleeced me last week losing to Sacramento, they just can't afford to give games away like that, i can see them come strong in the first quarter and take care of business. Not sure if Pistons can reach 100 tonight vs a highly motivated team.

Not really feeling today's games, a single ticket on the Hawks: Bogdanovic 20+ pts/reb/ast + U232.5 + Hawks -3.5 @1.88 wonBogdanovic has been putting consistent minutes for Hawks in recent games, he has covered the "20+ pts/reb/ast" in 8 of their last 9 games. It's a front end of a back-to-back for Atlanta, i think they will win comfortably here, they need all wins they can get. The fight for the 4th seed and first round home-court advantage will be huge between them, the Knicks (who they play tomorrow), and Boston. As for the under 232.5, ORL have a tendency of not scoring many points on the road (second to last on the season with 102), they could very well finish with under 100 here vs. a very good defense.
