NBA 2023-2024 betting

The LA Clippers depended on Paul George to deliver with their other two big guys absence, and he literally carried them very well tonight demanded of him but for due credits, Sacramento  Kings actually gave Clippers a run for their money.

Paul George did it all. He is a monster. 

Everything was easy for PG, let us not forget that, even PG can carry the team to win, the other 2 superstars are not even playing, how much more if they played. Clippers has a huge chance of becoming a champion this season, they just need to protect Leonard as he is the key.

Clippers are a playoff team even before Kawhi and PG joined them. They were always a Championship contender since these 2 stars joined but mishap after mishaps cost them even the WCF. Now they have Wall in their lineup and Ty Lue as a coach. If they can keep this core stars healthy, they are again a heavy contender for the Championship. It is early but I am quite inclined to believe that it will be GSW vs Clippers for WCF.

I have a very attractive bet tomorrow.
LA Lakers is only -3.5 against the Blazers, they are on a two losing streak, I'm sure they'll play harder in order to win.
So what you do you think about this betting spread? Should I be confident on betting on the LA Lakers, or will just stay away from this game?

Also, we have Jazz +7.5 against Pelicans, I'm thinking of betting Jazz ML. 

Lakers against a good shooting team? Hmmm that is a risky bet. Lakers is a poor shooting team. They can defend but if Damian gets hot, he can torch the Lakers alone.

That Jazz +7.5 is attractive. Pelicans is hot right now with Zion still healthy but a rebuilding Jazz is also unpredictable. That makes them dangerous. Both of these teams are young so that +7.5 is pretty good bet.

Dejavu like last year. I was caught many times by that trap with the thought that they will win it now and the next one and then so on...
Until I don't know how much "nth" time I lost my bet for them. I will pass for the Lakers for now.

Also, we have Jazz +7.5 against Pelicans, I'm thinking of betting Jazz ML. 

Now this is somehow attractive. Jazz had been winning their games but so does the Pelicans who looks pretty solid.
I guess that +7.5 is just fair so I will take that. Just an assurance if ever it ended in a close game. Take the ML if you are a high-risk gambler.

I think I am going underdog today.
Added to my bet is for the Charlotte Hornets +10.5 against the Atlanta Hawks.
The main event will be Clippers vs Suns. If Kawhi and Wall is out, the Suns have a higher chance to win this. Live betting might be the good choice.

My pick for tonight.

Golden State Warriors(-2,5) vs Sacramento Kings = First Quarter 1,80 odds

I think it will be easy game for Golden State. Sacramento can't win this game.

Good luck.

Lakers though lost to Blazers, 106-104. So yeah, I would agree, it's another deja vu from last year, they are the heavy favorites in this pre season game and they lost easy games. And then we though, nah, this is just  pre season and everything can change. But lo and behold, one of the worst season for Lebron as a Laker.

My pick for tonight.

Golden State Warriors(-2,5) vs Sacramento Kings = First Quarter 1,80 odds

I think it will be easy game for Golden State. Sacramento can't win this game.

Good luck.

Tailing you on the first quarter bet on Warriors, I haven't tried this one for a while.

Although I have risk in the odd/even score per quarter which is around 1.89 odds.

If I watch any more football today I'm going to lose my mind.  I did well betting but Fantasy is driving me insane. Turning my attention to basketball now. I think I'm going to take a little action on the Golden State warriors at -9.  I think that they can cover that.

Ugly loss for the Lakers only dropping the game by two.  The are going to have a terrible season.  I don't know even know what that point is for Lebron now.

we lose our bet, Warriors were not too dominant in that game. Their shooting is good but their defense wasn't that's why the game was close despite they won the game. In short, they didn't cover and we lose.

I stayed away in this game, I knew the Lakers are still in "struggling stage" this season.

They are dominant in the first half of the game and when Steve Kerr decided to use his 2nd team, the Kings made a comeback thanks to Mike Brown's decision to put Fox back although he is exhausted from their game yesterday versus the Clippers.
Kerr was so mad because they need to put back Curry, Green, Wiggins, Looney, and J. Green just to secure the win.
They even reached a record for the most points in the first half in Warriors history. 89 points. I bet the 2nd team was disciplined by Coach Kerr at the locker room after the game.  

I had a perfect bet today. 3/3. Thanks for the tip @Russlenat. If you did bet for the Jazz ML, you are now 3x richer.   (that was @3.90? iirc)
Another big winner is those who bet for Hornets ML.

Added the T'wolves bet after I saw how low the handicap is.

IIRC, they were a playoff team when CP3 and Blake Griffin were still the stars of this team, after they left, the team had already struggled and had only become better when PG and Leonard joined the team. Now they have Wall, he is a star player too, so they have a big chance of winning, chemistry just needs o be built effectively.

My pick for tonight.

Golden State Warriors(-2,5) vs Sacramento Kings = First Quarter 1,80 odds

I think it will be easy game for Golden State. Sacramento can't win this game.

Good luck.

Nice pick! Warriors won by 3 points only in the 1st quarter, so you hit it right bro!

1st quarter pick is really hard IMO, but I'm seeing your successful with your pick.
Warriors failed to cover the full game but did cover the 1st quarter.

I think you can try for the first quarter.
My first quarter win rate is higher than others. That's why I usually bet on the first quarter.

Not an easy bet to be made because you gamble only on the 1st quarter where most of the players of each respective teams are still warming up and not that hot enough to give huge points for the team. It literally needs courage to bet on that kind of option, anyway, congrats MK-74. Close 1st quarter game because the Warriors is just 3 points away.

8 games today guys, share your picks. 

I want the Jazz to keep the streak so I am betting for them. Jazz -3.5 vs Houston Rockets
They may be tired from a back-to-back game but they are a young team so I think they can manage somehow.

One more bet for a young team Orlando Magic +7.5 vs the New York Knicks.
It's their 3rd losing streak, they might be itching to make that one win, if not, keep the game close and I might cover the spread.

I actually got the opposite in both of those games.  I like 3 games tonight all home teams:

Knicks -7.5
Rockets +2
Heat -3.5

Think the Knicks blow out the young magic team here.  Knicks will feast on the lower teams but struggle against good ones.  Can see this being a 15 point type win tonight.

[MK-74]

I wasn't planning to bet for tonight's games, but I have set aside a small amount for tonight.

My pick for tonight

Chicago Bulls vs Boston Celtics(-4,5) = Boston Celtics Win 1,74 odds

Good luck to all.


@Kasabus thanks mate, I'm just getting lucky.

Yeah, I followed your tip for the first quarter handicap and it's W for me as well.

I'll go with the Utah Jazz -1.5 against Houston.

Spurs hot so +7.5 against the Wolves, odds is very attractive at 2.0.

Denver Nuggets vs Portland, I have it at over 226.5.

Best of luck, and hopefully we can get a win in these games.

I'm fancying a couple over and under bets, rather than the spread, I'm still getting used to new season, and players at different teams.

Raptors vs Miami Heat are playing for the second time in 3 days, It was a scrappy game the other night and both barely able to the Overs, despite an early high scoring half, I would expect much of the same style of play/result, So I find the Over 214.5 to be of decent value and, that'd be my call.

[jakelyson]

For today's bet, I am riding the winning streak of these two teams.



Even though Jazz is in a rebuilding process, they are actually off in a good start this season. They are currently on top of the standing with 3-0.

The Boston Celtics is on the roll as well. Even with their head coach out and only an interim coach is guiding them, they are still top of their conference with 3-0 as well.

I am hoping that these two teams will continue their winning streak.

I'm fancying a couple over and under bets, rather than the spread, I'm still getting used to new season, and players at different teams.

I am avoiding that as well for now because it is just the start of a new season. I am still studying how the teams are doing this year. I am sticking for ML in the meantime, even avoiding parlay bets. Once I get a good grip of how the teams play, then I might start betting on over and under and do parlay as well.

Good one! Congratulations. I may have been emotional there, that's why I lost all my bets.

The exhaustion in the Jazz team is too obvious, they are slower, and their energy is not the same as in their first 3 games. I really thought their young bodies could carry it but I guess it doesn't work that way. This is a good lesson in betting at back-to-back games.
2 days rest, and then they will be up against the Rockets again. Maybe we will witness a different ending on that day.

Yeah back to backs are nothing to mess with in betting.  The coach tends to give players a little more down time so it's more second squad doing the heavy lifting.  Now for today's games:

I like okc getting +8 at home vs the Clippers
And....gimme the Suns giving -1.5 points at home to golden state.  Should be a great game, gimme the home team here.

Good luck everyone tonight!
