NBA 2023-2024 betting

[Reid]

Bouncing back after losing my Game 1 bet. Supposed to bet on Game 2 but there were reports that Porzingis will not play so decided to skip the game but eventually they won that game lol. Bet on Game 4 even it's risky.

I thought my Game 4 bet will be busted again after Clippers made a run on the 4th. On overtime, Mavericks was downed by 1 with 3 seconds left. But Luka made a big clutch shot to seal the game. Maybe I will back betting on Mavericks on Game 6. I still see Clippers to win the series.

That was some great game out there.
So much news about Luka missing the game. But it was KP who didn't.
Another great win from Luka Doncic. We will see this a lot in highlights of the NBA. 
Then, there is Trey Burke stepping up once again filling the hole that KP left from the offense.

I lost my other bets. But not my over and under.

What a game.  No way I would have picked mavs to pull it out but Doncic is a beast.  This is the hardest series to bet this year in round 1.  With an ending like that im expecting a clips win next game.  Prob won't touch the spread, money line should be good enough odds now at 2-2

There's no line set for game 5, I think it would still be +4.5 for Mavericks up.
Hopefully KP will play, this was a scary game for the Mavericks, yes they won but that was not an easy win for them.

They were down early on, able to make a rally and lead but it was a close game in the dying seconds, also in the OT.

Luka got magic, that's the real thing, but without KP, I'm not sure they'll get a win in this series.

Luka got magic, that's the real thing, but without KP, I'm not sure they'll get a win in this series.

We will have to wait for the result of MRI, hopefully it's a positive one and that would allow Kristaps Porzingis to be back in the line up again.

Here's the update to follow : https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/30160/kristaps-porzingis

Kristaps Porzingis will have an MRI on his right knee on Sunday.
The results should determine if he can play in Game 5 on Tuesday, with coach Rick Carlisle saying only that his status hasn't been determined. Trey Burke filled in as a starter for Game 4 and was successful in a thrilling win, so he'd likely get the nod again if KP is ruled out. We should get the test results on Monday or Tuesday.

I'll be a little careful now.  

Houston -2.5
Miami -6.5
Portland +6.5

Although, I think Blazers will get this win again. I want to see Lillard explode again like that Game 1.
It takes the game to be more fun and exciting to watch.  

Melo, if you are reading this, please be like that Game 3 Melo again. 42mins 20pts 6rebs 4steals
You may have lost that game but you did great.

1-2, bad luck for Houston and Portland  bet.

The result wasn't at our expectation, we were counting on Lillard to give his damn time but he was so quite in this game.
Lillard only scored 11 points in this game, not his usual figure, so I guess Blazers will be over in game 5 and Lillard might still be struggling from whatever injury he is feeling now.

[stadus]

Here I go again.

The best series in the 1st round, betting on the Mavericks vs Clippers again.

The hype of Luka Magic is still on, so I would not bet against him in this series because I got a bonus which is the + points.
Also, it seems like Kristaps Porzingis is going to play in this game as we have some good update per https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/30160/kristaps-porzingis

An MRI on Kristaps Porzingis' sore right knee came back negative.
This is wonderful news and Porzingis will undergo treatment at Monday's practice. He's still listed as questionable on the official injury report, but Shams Charania of The Athletic is reporting that he will be a game-time call as the Mavs wait and see how his knee responds.

Therefore my pick is Dallas Moneyline and +6.5

No contact. He twisted his knee. Just a bad step from forcing to drive in the paint.
Shit happens. This are the unexpected events which could make a team lose in the playoffs.
Will CJ step up his game and so does Melo? Let's see.

I had two bets.
My over and under parlay didn't win too.   So sad. Low scoring game for Miami and Indiana.

Therefore my pick is Dallas Moneyline and +6.5

Let me follow you on this Sir.

Glad we are on the same board, let's win this game. Luka did some magic in game 4, he doesn't need to do the same, they just need to win.
Actually even if I lose, it doesn't matter, I just love how the Dallas are playing right now, everyone is contributing well, and that makes a successful team.

In case KP won't be able to play, not gonna hedge my bet.

Lakers played maybe their best game of the year/bubble offensively (and defensively) against Portland, on 8/24 day.
From what i'm reading online, Lillard has to go through another set of tests/MRI to see if there is any damage to the knee.
I think Blazers are done, Lakers are slowly getting into their groove and are no match for them, with or without Dame, series will end in 5.

I had a little 3-team parlay yesterday, with Lakers/Heat/OKC ml total odds 3.69

I'll skip today's games, too tough to predict, they could go either way honestly but i hope Denver will win and extend the series, would like to see some game 7s in the first round.

Gl to those who have bets though!

If this happens, I am more worried with Melo again.
He had gone through tough times with all that media talking about it regarding the kick out in Houston.
Now this in Portland. I hope their GM is not that bad as Houston. Keep Melo.

It really is a tough choice. I want to bet with Denver as I am a fan but they keep on losing and so does my money.

Yes, it's an addition for the screams and jumps.

KP-less Mavs for game 5 it would be a tough knowing that Clippers are also aiming fro this series, going to wait for the live games and
see how things will work for both teams,.
Clippers still missing PG's offense, still off but once he start getting his rhythm we know how deadly he is. Good Luck

KP is questionable in the game tonight.

For now, we'll be considering KP questionable for Game 6 on Thursday.

But the good news is we will more minutes from  Boban Marjanovic, hopefully he will be effective enough to and help Luka to win this game.

I think it's hard for him to get back his rhythm in this series, but if they'll passed the Mavericks, we might see that in the 2nd round, and still there's enough for him to get that back as they are not down in the series, 2 or 3 more games to unleash that.

KP has already been ruled out. Doncic might also have some problems, even though he had a spectacular performance last match his knee wasn't feeling too good. My personal opinion is that Clippers will easily win this match by 10+ points. Even if Doncic will have the same performance as last match, Clippers are still a much better team that has lots of players that can score while Dallas is pretty much counting on Doncic and KP. I won't say Dallas can't win, if KP was playing they surely had a good shot but with him out and Doncic not being 100% it's Clippers game to lose

I took the over on Utah and Clippers ML for a 2.4 odds parlay. Good luck to everyone

I'm a little late to hear the news on KP but since i've already made my bet yesterday and can't cancel them anymore then i will leave it that way, +6.5 Mavericks and a little for ML. Anyway the Mavs have proven to us that they can beat the Clips even without KP and Luka is oozing with confidence right now and that maybe enough for them to take this game 5.

Well, it's 2-2 so definitely both teams have proven they can win. I think this is either going to be a very close contest, which gives Dallas a good chance to win it in the last couple of minutes or it's just going to be a blowout for the Clippers showing what they are really capable of doing. Anyway, I'm sure it's going to he a great match-up. Looking forward to seeing how Doncic will perform and also Paul George as he's been quite lately

Yesterday, Dallas Mavericks Moneyline I think is around @3.2. With Kristap Porzingis being questionable, the odds rose to @4.1.

Worth to try. That's how Mavericks is being looked as an Underdog that even they even the series, their Moneyline odds never goes below @2.

Lucky Mavericks fan. It's worth placing a bet for them.

And now it's garbage time.
It's tough to handle 2 offensive players like Kawhi and PG13 while fighting on the other end is just Luka.
He needs KP on this game.
3-2 in favor of Clippers.

Who thinks it will go further to Game 7? I did. But if KP will not play this may end in 2 days. 
Sorry Luka, maybe next year.

Yeah, I read the news shared by a poster in the NBA thread. Maybe we can relax a bit now after a straight betting, let's hope the boycott won't last longer we can see the NBA back in action soon. Good for Blazers and Magic as it looks like they have avoided an early exit due to the postponement of games. lol.

Thunder (no handicap)

I like Thunder too, they are in a 2 win streak, played well as a team, so let's ride with the flow.
