NBA 2023-2024 betting

[Harkorede]

I finished 1/3 for the night, both Lakers and Atlanta Hawks couldn't win their respective matches. I'm more surprised about the Lakers having their big 3 on the floor but still look pretty mediocre

Betting on Lakers' Moneyline should be thought twice. They are inconsistent whether the team is looked at strong or weak. They were defeated even in a healthy lineup by a lower team and even they won, they are struggling to get that win. Recently, they were almost defeated by a less Doncic Dallas Mavericks and they got won because of that lucky shot. I considered that lucky shot as it's a rush.

Better bet on live bet or Lakers Total. A handicap is a good bet too.

Lakers are so ugly on their gain against the Timberwolves.

You are right, their problem is their inconsistency, one day they'll win, next day they'll lose big time.
though Westbrook did play, it has still not change the chance of the team, they are just being dominated by the Timberwolves who are not even a good playoffs contender.

We should follow this.

[danherbias07]

I can't seem to find the right emotion for this kind of bet.  Happy or not?

Won the over-score bet but a bad loss for the 2 games. Should've followed Dave on that spread. Anyway, congrats to all who didn't extend their greediness like me.
Watched the Laker game after those two games and I hope Anthony Davis didn't hurt himself so badly because he said he is okay but never went back.
Let's wish it will not be something to miss more games. MRI result may come out tomorrow.

Loss my 76ers bet. 

My pick tonight.

I got the Wolves winning against the LA Lakers. line open -2.5 for the home team, now only PK.

I'll take the ML anyway, I believe they'll beat the LA Lakers here.

No Westbrook and Avery Bradley.
https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/russell-westbrook-enters-health-and-safety-protocols-lakers-to-sign-isaiah-thomas-as-replacement-per-reports/

i was wrong that Westbrook won't play but my pick is right as it was an easy win by the Twolves.
Lakers did struggle and I am right this time so I'll continue betting against the Lakers until they became a consistent team.

My advance pick.

Celtics vs NY Knicks.

I got the NY Knicks to cover here. Celtics playing a back to back game, I think even if they'll win it will not result to a dominant win, so that +4.5 for me is a value, I'm taking it.

Brooklyn Nets VS Philadelphia 76ers

Well, felt sad because of that health protocol impose on the Brooklyn Nets team I surely like the Nets but with the huge team disadvantage and the team is facing players into quarantine Kevin Durant is surely not enough to face the Philadelphia 76ers now that Seth Curry, Tobias Harris, Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid in their good condition, and giving Stephen Curry a hard time because of Matisse Thybulle defense, this could be a hard time for the Nets stake odd right now 1.93 for the Nets and 1.92 for the 76ers, this is a close odds we can get but I am going with the Philadelphia 76ers.

Unfortunately I couldn't keep up with this game and I didn't bet either (I was going to bet on the Nets, but it didn't work lol)

Anyway, the Nets had a monstrous advantage in the 3 point shot, almost 50%!!
Practically Durant is carrying the Nets on his back as he is playing really well!

Very well indeed I really thought that guaranteed players would surely get them a problem but apparently, coach steve nash quick thinking of getting Kevin Durant back and forth inside the court is surely helpful and I should have bet and trusted the Brooklyn Nets that day,

but right now as I have seen the Brooklyn Nets injury report Kevin Durant is among their injured player but may return to play tomorrow before the game against the Magic, right now the team of Brooklyn Nets is struggling in keeping their players healthy right now.

Golden State Warriors VS Boston Celtics - Score 107 - 111

I don't know about all of you but I sure love watching how the Golden State Warriors play and how Stephen Curry landing all that 3 point shots without fail,
and with this game Curry just landed 30 pts 4 assists and 5 rebounds, Stephen Curry is really something Ray Allen's record was 2973 3 Point shots in his 1300 games while Stephen Curry has 2977 in just 789 of his games, and he could surely be able to pass that record when he hits the 900 games he played,

well with this game the Warriors are not setting a good record and may hit the championship if they keep on doing this, and I think when Klay Thompson returns I really think the Golden State Warriors will surely be unstoppable.

Yeah, live betting will be a good choice, so that you can see how the complexion of the game is turning on to be. Although one drawback is that the odds keeps going up/down and as per my experience, bets are hard to get inside as the betting might be close. So you need to be very quick otherwise you might lose that good odds.

And speaking of that, I was able to put my bet -4.5 for Minnesota when the score is 21-12 first quarter, Wolves leading at 1.9x.

[danherbias07]

We have an early game. Piston versus Rockets and will start in just minutes. I guess I will pass or try to bet live.

Careful betting for the Warriors. It's not a trap but they are resting Steph then Green, Wiggins, and Iggy also have their own reasons but I think they are all for resting purposes.
But, I want to see GPII shine at this moment and so does Damion Lee so I think I'll risk with a handicap of +9.5 because they are not that bad of a team without their stars. Expecting a large total score too if the three's keeps on piling up. Over 201.5 should be enough.

They are resting everyone, lol. Looks like they just want to give this win to the Raptors, and it's surely be an easy win by the Raps, I'm thinking of not just +9.5 ,but 26+ win by the Raps.

Great timing, Lakers were not able to bounce back, looks like they are a tired team in this game. It's always fun to bet live as you can watch the game and you have an idea if a certain team is struggling or not, in this case, we saw how the Lakers struggle even with a healthy line up.

For games today, I like to hear some thoughts on the Celtics vs Knicks, I guess this is an exciting game that I should be putting up a bet.

Will the fresher legs would win or the home court advantage will prevail?

Yes... Durant is being a monster in this regular season and he is also the NBA player with most points scored in this regular season (almost 30 points per game)

Wait, what do you mean, is Durant injured?
Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving (and others players) are not obligated with 10 days apart because of health and safety protocols because of COVID?

Yeah, gotta learn the hard way, I guess.


Giannis, Middleton and Bobby Portis are all out for the Milwaukee Bucks vs Cleveland Cavaliers, I'll be taking the Cavaliers -3.5 here, Even with those 3 on the floor, Cavs would still a tough team to face, but without them I don't think Bucks can pull this off.

I'll also be following @Stadus on Knicks vs Celtics, the spread is currently at +5.5 for Knicks, and I'll be taking that.

[morvillz7z]

Golden State will be resting most of their guys tonight on the second of back-to-back games, and the Nets barely have any players left to field against Orlando with KD also in protocols.

Excellent opportunity for players like Toscano-Anderson, Gary Payton II, Kessler Edwards for BKN to get the bulk of the minutes and show what they got.

Toscano-Anderson 14+ pts/ast, Gary Payton II 15+ PRA @1.80 X

The last time these two got around 25 minutes of playing time, Toscano-Anderson went for 17/5/5 and Gary Payton chipped in for 19/5/0, this was in a blowout win against Phoenix with GSW having all their players available. Today with no Curry, Green, and Wiggins, those bench players will eat.

K. Edwards 15+ pts/rebs, B. Griffin 13+ pts @1.75 X

Patty Mills is likely to lead the Nets in scoring (worth taking his points totals in separate bet) but i also expect both Kessler Edwards and B. Griffin to get double-digit shot attempts and have over 30 minutes of playing time, which should be enough to cover their lines.

I should have read your comments about the Rockets vs Pistons because I didn't pass on this game and I wasn't able to watch it live, lost my bet on Detroit.

Yes, Juan Toscano, GPII and Lee should be the star for the Warriors, but not sure if they are enough to win against the Raptors tonight. I just included Raptors in my parlay and I take the risk on Nets -1.5 against Orlando.

[Jating]

Warriors vs Toronto game, Draymond and Steph might rest in this game as reported already, so this is a good chance for the Raptors to have a win against the top team right now.

I don't think they'll let them rest both Curry and Green since Jordan Poole is going to be sidelined due to covid health and safety protocol.
However, Raptors will have a good chance to win in this game, since they were also able to cover the spread from their last couple of games and they also have a good game.
Looking at the spread and odds, it really looks like the GSW is not going to play with the complete roster.

It's already a blowout lost to the Warriors mate, as I have said, no Curry, no Draymond Green, no Jordan Poole so instant win for the Raptors with a huge 19 points win.

I guess the Warriors are willing to let this one slip away from them. Not worth to push those three to play tonight. And it's better to rest them because of a back to back game. They are still on the top of the standings still.

Raptors easily beat the Warriors. The handicap -9.5 was good there were 19points.

While with your Nets, sad to say, but aside from the Big 3, Claxton also did not play. Magic beat them in their home court.
If that's a parlay, Nets ruined your pick.

Not a kind of day for you, Dave..

It was only Blake and Mills for the side of the Nets. And yes, they try to make a comeback but Orlando can't be denied in this game. Even the Clippers also lost because of no PG13, and then Warriors against the Raptors. So it's pretty much upsets tonight because the star players are sitting or resting or under safe and health protocol so it's hard to bet pre game because we don't know who is going to play.

Despite the fact that the warriors lost I’m still happy because we reach 100 points hopefully the bench skills will improve. It’s good for starters to rest and bench to get time as well. So, they could build chemistry and probably play better alongside starters in the future.

[danherbias07]

They are resting everyone, lol. Looks like they just want to give this win to the Raptors, and it's surely be an easy win by the Raps, I'm thinking of not just +9.5 ,but 26+ win by the Raps.

And it did happen.   Who are you? Nostradamus?   It went to 25 point lead, iirc.
I thought they would at least showcase their skills when their stars are not around but no. Nothing good happened even like an expectation for a short run.
The momentum just shift a little but the Raptors are good at getting it back avoiding them to make a good run.
1/1 for me there as I hit the over 201.5 total score.

I have another late bet that didn't hit. Clippers -5.5. SGA took over at the last minutes of the game and even hit a winning shot. Sad as I was hoping for just a 2 pointer to make it to overtime and maybe hit my bet there.

<<< >>>>>>

No I'm not, if I am, I would have won my pick last night. 
It's just a wild guess but the Raptors did not play hard in the last quarter, they were outscored by the Warriors in the 4th resulting to lose my 26+ bet.

Anyway, I again have my early pick.
I got the Phoenix Suns -7.5 against the Charlotte. No Booker, should not be a problem as the Suns have a very impressive home record.
