NBA 2024-2025 betting

The Warriors on the other hand, suffered and lost unexpectedly against the Pacers with a 4 points score difference. Seems the Warriors recently are out of bounce and their chemistry isn't that well enough anymore since they can be defeated by a weaker team like the Pacers now.

They'll have a chance to bounce back from that very disappointing loss.

Today, they'll play a back to back game and will be up against the Rockets, I think a weaker team like the Rockets will be easy for them to beat, and knowing that the Warriors always come back from a loss, it's so enticing to take the spread although it's as high as -11.

I think I like the Warriors here, even though I'm not the biggest fan of wide spreads I think the Warriors got this.

I'll be taking the Lakers -5.5 against Orlando Magic, I know Lakers are pretty awful right now, but it's going to be a real low if they're unable to get a win against a team like Magic.

I also like the Nuggets vs Memphis as well.

Lakers need to win and covering that handicap should not be a problem.

Though we keep seeing disappointing outcome from their previous performances, but still they need to come up and
make some win. Magic is not that much if they will perform well.

I'll be checking this one as I'm looking for the Nets and Boston, lots of games to choose, better to carefully analyzed and
fid the value bet that can bring a better outcome..

I'm glad Lakers eventually did cover the spread and I won my bet, despite being behind at halftime the rally in the 3rd Quarter was determining factor.

Warriors were terrible last night again, they were barely able to win with Curry's buzzer-beating shot, after some good run in the final minutes of the game, a game where they double digits favorite.
Warriors next game is against the Utah Jazz, I'm curious to see what the line/odds would open at.

[danherbias07]

3 games. 3 of them are hard underdogs. Most of the handicaps are 10+ to gain a good win.
My early pick will be for the Phoenix Suns -11.5 versus the Indiana Pacers.
Sure, the Pacers shocked us by winning against GSW but this is Phoenix Suns with Chris Paul who controls the ball. GSW lost because of turnovers and last time I checked CP3 didn't have any turnover for the last couple of games against Spurs and Mavericks. I think they can overpower them with LeVert and Brogdon still questionable to play.

[YuginKadoya]

Let's lay low a bit on betting the Warriors, they cannot be trusted these days, it started with KT back in the lineup, their chemistry has been change. They won the game but it was a close one, if not because of Curry's game-winning shot, that game could have went to OT and they might lose again.

I know it is all because of Stephen Curry, Carrying the team and particularly I think he is out of his slump, and yes the team with Curry doesn't really sink too well, We got Andrew Wiggins, Otto Porter Jr, Jordan Poole, and Jonathan Kuminga and Curry can sure use these 4 players as he is right now, but I think the Golden State Warriors play is just as good as it gets, the Houston Rockets is just playing as good as they are tonight, I haven't made my bet for them because I don't really want to risk it this time,

They need some time to make an adjustment, I think this game KT did not play, and yet they could not dominate the Rockets. Curry is still the leader of the team, despite he struggles in his past games that resulted in a loss of the Warriors, but it's been a great win by the Warriors here and I think they'll start winning again.

How about the Lakers, did anyone bet on them last night?

I think the Golden State Warriors dominance will be back when Draymond Green and James Wiseman would be back in February right now Gary Payton II, Klay Thompson, and Andre Iguodala is back for the next game, and Stephen Curry is out from his Shooting Slump, and yeah I agree they will start racking up wins again, and when Draymond Green returns that could be a different Warriors that we might see and this could be a scary scenario for the other teams,

I didn't touch that game, I knew that the Lakers are too unpredictable and they won here after two consecutive losses I believe. Next game I'll be taking the Lakers, it's nice to back them after a win as sometimes they'll get some little win streak.

I didn't bet for the Los Angeles Lakers aswell, they are unpredictable aswell and they are having trouble with their coach and the management, if it's not for Lebron James and the many turnovers the Magic did they could not win this match.

Great choice, can't trust them with their inconsistency.

I wonder hight they'll handle the Nets on their next game.
I'm pretty sure Lebron alone could not win against a talented Nets team, even without Durant, they cannot beat the Nets especially on the road.

Time to fade the team against a strong team.

Well, if the spread is only -5.5, I think I will go with the Nets, but if it's -10.5, then most likely I'm with the Lakers. I think the Nets will be able to dominate the Lakers as they are messing up with their rotation, however, the odds are very tempting so I might get tempted to just bet on the Lakers.

[wheelz1200]

Last night was an easy bet on the Lakers only giving 5 to the magic.  Magic and very young and very awful.  Tonight I like the cavs at home giving 12 points.  Lots of points but I think they control the game from the tip and the bigs win out tonight.  Good luck everyone!

[ralle14]

Taking the best team in the league when it comes to covering spreads which is Cavs -11.5, OKC lost by double digits in their last two games and the trend should continue as they're on a back to back game plus the Cavs are looking to bounce back after their tough loss against the Bulls. Last time the OKC went on a back to back game on the road they lost by 18 points against the Suns. Not touching the Suns for now since the Pacers manage to put up good fight against the Warriors.

Only way I see okc in this game is if Shai keeps them in it.  But okc has no one that can cover the amount of bigs that the cavs have.  This is a perfect mismatch and at home.  Expecting a blowout with okc struggling to even get to 90 tonight.  Fingers crossed

[danherbias07]

My early pick will be for the Phoenix Suns -11.5 versus the Indiana Pacers.

How I wish Devin Booker made that windmill dunk for my win to be secured. But he was really on a bad night with just 11 points. Most of his shots just won't get in. It happens to shooters, so it's okay. Chris Paul though made my day complete.

That bet for Jae Crowder. Oh, unlucky. He was hurt in the third quarter and just ran quickly to the locker room. I wish it's just a minor injury. Just 1 more steal or block could've perfected my player props.
Biyombo and McGee both have a double-double. Great contribution while Ayton is out.

They didn't cover the spread, it was only a 10 point win. I think that spread was to high considering the Pacers are doing well in their past games, but that's it, have to accept and move on, maybe next time they'll dominate their opponent and would easily cover the spread.

[stadus]

My early pick.

Utah Jazz vs Golden State Warriors.

I'm leaning on the warriors here, though they have some struggle in their last game I think their home record is good enough for me to be convinced to back the Warriors.

Michell is out, so it will be a fair match as the Warriors have no Green.

[danherbias07]

^Thank you stadus. Same pick for me with Golden State Warriors -5.5. Utah Jazz is in bad shape for now without the Spider and they even lost against the Rockets a couple of games ago. And to add to that problem are Gobert and Bogdanovic as questionable for the game.

11 games for later. I'll throw one more for the Toronto Raptors -7.5 versus Portland Trail Blazers.
How about the Lakers? Anyone who thinks they might snatch a win against the undermanned Miami Heat? No Lowry, Herro, and Tucker is questionable.
I think I'll give it a chance despite losing a lot of my bets for them. Lakers ML.

We'll see what would be the spread on Wednesday, but for tomorrow, the game is LA Lakers vs Miami Heat and the spread is +/-2
The Miami Heat have lost against the Hawks, a much weaker team with a .444 percent play but we can't also the deny that the Lakers is also struggling and they have a much weaker defense than the Heat. So, my bet would be MIA @ -2

Shai came out strong and even though okc lost they covered.  Cleveland d held strong but couldn't get their offense going.  Tonight I like 2 games.  Taking sixers -1.5 on the road against San Antonio.  SA doesn't have anyone who can stop embid.  He should wreck this game.  And then I like golden state -5 at home against the Jazz.  Jazz have a couple important players out and gs gets draymond back which is huge.

News also spreading that AD's comeback is still questionable.

If he's back, the spread and ML will be change a lot, he's a game changer. The presence of a two-way player is very important
considering that he's one of the stars of this team.

I check this game during the live telecast, it's tough to bet as early as now, we never know yet if AD will be present or not.

I think the status is still questionable until now.
https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-is-anthony-davis-playing-tonight-vs-heat/

However, if Davis would really play, I still think it would not easily make the Lakers better as he was absent for 16 games and he has to re adjust again, and coming from injury, I don't expect him to show his full potential yet, he might only play with limited minutes also.

[YuginKadoya]

Well, that is a good question, I don't know if Lebron James could take on the Nets if James Harden could fire up and Kyrie Irving is pretty much blending in and can make some power play on their own, and Kevin Durant could be back on February 24, but before that Brooklyn Nets match-up they are facing against his previous team Miami Heat first and Miami Heat is racking up winnings but right now Miami Heat is facing problems with injuries, and Covid-19 making Tyler Herro, KZ Okpala, Markieff Morris, P.J. Tucker, P.J. Tucker, and Victor Oladipo can not play against the Los Angeles Lakers, if they could win this then that would be the time they can play against the Brooklyn Nets, and I think this is a hard and close match of the Lakers and Lebron James.

The Toronto Raptors are currently being torn apart by Trail Blazers with a 30 points lead at halftime, I actually have the Blazers on +7.5 and that's because I felt the Raptors could have a hard time, which I guessed right. It will take more than a miracle for the Raptors to get a W here, as the Blazers just seemed to be making all the right calls and plays.

I'll be following the consensus here on the Warriors vs Jazz, I'm taking the Warriors -4.5 @ 1.892 Odds.

GL everyone!

[ralle14]

Shai came out strong and even though okc lost they covered.

They got to double digits at the end of the third quarter but then OKC went on a small run at the start of the fourth quarter and that was enough to hold them within 7 points.  

So many games to choose from but i'll go with the Hornets -2.5, they're putting up good results and beating solid teams, the Hawks are also racking up some wins recently but I think their streak ends today as they're struggling on the road.

[btc_angela]

Bulls lost again and it was a bad lost to Magic. Not sure if anyone has bet on the Magic before last time I check they are the underdog in this game.

I have the Bulls -4.5 to win, so it's another tough loss for me. And I'm sure majority here bet on the Bulls to end their losing streak against a not so good team such as Orlando.
