Brutal night with a laker 1 point win lol.  Right on the hook.  Tonigjt is a new night though!

1) have to ride the lakers.  -3.5 against the bulls.  Should be an easier game than the pacers
2) im gonna regret this but the heat -1.5 against the hawks.  Hawks stink but so does miami.  Gimme the home team in basically a pickem
3) magic -6.5 over the dallas mavs.  Orlando has a snaeky good squad and think they take down the mavs at home..

Good luck everyone!

I really do like Lakers pick, I don't know if both Doncic and Lebron James would be playing in a back to back game yet, because I remember either of them sitting out in the 2nd game of back to back earlier this month, but given what's at stake maybe they'll be both play, that said, the line is currently -4.5 for the Lakers, and that's just fine with me.



I really don't not like any bet that involves Miami Heat, aside from being awful lately, most of their matches are an eyesore, almost zero entertainment, even when I lose some money on a team I should at least be entertained by how they play right ? never the heat, lol.

Now someone has talked about this, I'm inclined to ask—what happened to Miami heat? I don't know the team that much other than the fact that Jimmy butler was there and now, he's at Warriors.

My question stems from the fact that not only are their games boring, they don't even make attempts to win. I've lost a couple of bets—mostly totals; simply because Miami heat don't even put up to 90. Its ridiculous. I stopped betting on games that involved them some weeks back. Not impressed.

To be honest i hate my bets tonight which likely means they win lol.  I never like betting back to backs especially on the road and the favorites but lebron is on a rampage to win a championship for his legacy amd to male sure bronny gets a chip.  He wants this and games like this bron is going to take over.  Seedings matter amd with 10 or so games left he wants to win these all.  We'll see hope they win just by more than 1 tonigjt lol.

The Bulls have been a surprise lately going 8-2 in their last 10 games, and the last time they faced the Lakers they dominated with a 146-115 win on the Lakers' home court.

So I’m not sure if the Lakers are in a good spot here, considering it’s a back-to-back game, on the road against a team that already dominated them. But whatever happens, all I can say is good luck but I’m staying away from this one.

Yes, I'd agree that you do have valid points, the bet was more about how desperate I think the Lakers need this win, because odd as it may sound, this should be one of the easiest games they have left of the season, so it's gotta count for something. Or let's just say I'm going go with Doncic and Lebron over common sense or logic here

All valid but i comsider this pre playoff time.  Knowing seedings are getting drawn lebron gonna turn it up.  And luka is finally getting the lay of the land with the lakers.  I take a one game sample lightly.  Anyone can win any game in this league.  I just think bron gonna turn it up.

This OKC spread felt a bit low given how all of their previous meetings ended with them winning by double digits and the Grizzlies have been giving away wins to weaker teams recently.

I can't imagine the Grizzlies keeping this game close and one of their best players is still injured, making it even harder than the previous ones.

[GreatArkansas]

Amen Thompson and Steven Adams are questionable to day.
But in the Utah Jazz, there are a lot of players who can't play. The Jazz have been having a tough time with their top players sidelined due to injuries.
The Rockets will likely full advantage of this second change to secure an easy win against the struggling Utah Jazz.

[passwordnow]

I have also made a bet to Lakers against the Chicago Bulls tonight. After the success that they've got last night, maybe they'll be on a streak tonight.



If this bet losses, I have no idea what kind of losing streak I am getting for this week. Luck isn't so generous to me if that happens.

I think Miami Heat must have read the posts we made here, because their match today was the contrast of what they've done since the Jimmy Butler trade, as they put up 122 points, crazy! I don't know if that was due to them playing Atlanta Hawks but at least they did well, not to take anything away from their performance.

You called it, and it's all going your way so far, except for the Magic who got beaten by Dallas Mavericks.

Haha. I saw the results—even watched some of the game when it was live. Well, I'm glad that they finally got some wins. They have now won their last 3 games which is good to see. Still, I will hold off on further bets on them until I see some stability and consistency with theit performances. I don't need 100 today, 85 tomorrow.

If this bet losses, I have no idea what kind of losing streak I am getting for this week. Luck isn't so generous to me if that happens.

That's the thing with NBA matches. There can be wild swings in either direction Lakers were up by 17 points in the 3rd quarter. I left the game to watch Sacramento kings vs Blazers only to later see that they lost the game.

That loss was due to LeBron’s lazy pass, if that didn’t happen, the Lakers would have already secured the win.

It’s ironic. LeBron was the reason they won the last game, but this time, he was the reason they lost. That evens things out, but for Bulls fans, this moment will be unforgettable, especially with Giddey’s game-winning shot.

The Warriors have struggled a bit since Stephen Curry's injury.
Even without him, Golden State has enough talent to rebound and overpower a Pelicans team that's missing nearly all of its key players.
But Stephen Curry is questionable, let's see if he can play.

That escalated so fast and didn't thought that they'd lose on that match. I'm already happy that I'd probably get a win tonight but no way it didn't happened. I'd probably skip the games later and will be back for tomorrow. Too much losses I've already got for this week and not just in the NBA but also in my beloved esports. Well, I'd still look out if I've got the guts for some bucks remaining on my budget for this week.

7 games later. Here are my picks.

Detroit Pistons - Cleveland Cavaliers - Cleveland Cavaliers (-4.5) - Easy choice, although I know that the Pistons won't just give the win easily for the Cavs.
Brooklyn Nets - Los Angeles Clippers - Los Angeles Clippers (-10.5) - It's low profit at -10.5, but it's decent for those who want a win.
Denver Nuggets - Utah Jazz - Denver Nuggets (-15.5) - Lots of Nuggets players are posted as probable to play, but that spread seems to be telling something different.

Good luck everyone!

I’m surprised that Cavs is still playing with their complete roster and not slowing down in preparation with the playoffs despite they already secure the top spot on their division to avoid potential injury for their players for a full roster team in the play offs.

Is there a way to determine in advance what will be their final roster for tomorrow match?

I might drop a couple of bets for tomorrow on this match. Pistons will surely give extra effort on this match.

But Stephen Curry is questionable, let's see if he can play.

In this must win game for Golden State, New Orleans doesn't have a player on the roster that can keep the team in the game. McCollum and Zion are out and New Orleans is not in good shape even though they won their last game. For Golden State, a win in a non-threatening game like this is enough. We could see some high scoring, but I don't think they will push themselves. They can win without too much tempo, keeping the opponent low scoring against a very limited New Orleans offense.

[ralle14]

The Grizzlies yesterday almost made me lose hope on my OKC handicap, but luckily OKC did their thing again in the fourth quarter and pulled away with a big lead. 

I'm going small on the Clippers here, even though they're in a must-win situation and have been winning by double digits in their recent road games, I can still see the Nets putting the pressure if they have a bad start.

With the way NOP played the game it's not hard for GSW to cover the handicap, adding to that is chef curry play knowing his threat to the offense for sure a collapse from NOP will happen each time he holds the ball, an easy pick for those who take that handicap as there's nothing NOP can do they are playing just to finished the it and nothing to show in terms of resisting and giving GSW a tough competition though it's understandable since the key players are all resting..
