Stadus NBA betting Journey - 62-52 (54.38%)

[stadus]

my pick, Spurs -5 at home

Another nice win, we are on a run already.. 62-52 (54.38%).. this is by far the best record I have, hope this will continue, we are already in profitable percentage.

Still lots of games to watch and bet today, but we have to be disciplined here, stick with the rule, 1 game per day. So I'll just watch the remaining games since the profit is already in the pocket for today.

[stadus]

Okay let’s continue.. I have the raptors and the pistons tomorrow. Again I don’t see much value on the point spread so I would go on the total instead.
I believe this could be a close game as the line suggests, so I’m thinking both teams will be shooting well. With that I’m choosing the over for this game.

pick - over 223.5

pick - over 223.5

Another early win here, that brings the record to 63-52 (54.78%)

We are done for today, and again the streak is still alive. I didn’t count anymore but I think we really have a good run, we don’t want to stop it anytime soon for sure.
Early win means early rest, will be sharing a pick later so keep your eyes here while I’m hot.

Don't miss this one..

Tomorrow I have the lakers vs the Rockets. I know the lakers have been hot lately (with 5 win streak at home), while there are some controversies around the rockets, but I still believe they are the side to bet tomorrow. At -2.5 at home, I don’t think the public will easily rush to pick them, and for that reason I’m backing them to win and cover the spread.

My pick, Rockets -2.5.

[stadus]

My pick, Rockets -2.5.

loss this pick 62-53 = 53.91 is the current record


Time to bounce back, I still have the Rockets vs the Lakers game, no quitting on my side.

I’m still backing the Rockets, I’m looking at it like a best-of-7 series where they already lost Game 1, so they can’t afford to lose Game 2 or they’ll be in a bad spot early.

Rockets -2.5 still.

[stadus]

I’m back, and I’m taking the Orlando Magic tomorrow.

The line is currently at -6.5, and I think they can manage to cover that if they win. This is a necessary bounce back game for them since they’ve been struggling lately.

In their last 10 games, they’ve only won 2, which clearly shows there’s a problem. But I still believe they can get the win against a team that’s also struggling.

Good luck.

[stadus]

I’m back, and I’m taking the Orlando Magic tomorrow.

its a win, 63-53 (54.30%)

Tomorrow I’ll keep it simple, it’s a no brainer for me to side with the home team between the Spurs and the Nuggets. Even though the Spurs are currently on an 11 game winning streak, I still like the Nuggets who are also on a good run.

I believe they really need this win to make sure they don’t drop to 5th and to secure their home court advantage.

Nuggets ML is my pick.

[stadus]

Nuggets ML is my pick.

a win. 64-53 record so far.. (54.70%)

a win. 64-53 record so far.. (54.70%)

Now that the regular season is over, I’m closing my record at 54.70%. I’m already satisfied with that since somehow it still translated into profit in my account.

You only need around 52.5% to break even, so anything higher than that already means profit. Now it’s time to move on to the playoffs. I’ll start with my play-in predictions and treat it like a fresh start again, back to a 0 record.

[stadus]

Alright, let’s start the betting. This time I’m making 2 bets. I got one road team and one home team.

My picks: Miami Heat +6 and Phoenix Suns -3

Good luck everyone, hope we get a good start here.

My picks: Miami Heat +6 and Phoenix Suns -3

Good luck everyone, hope we get a good start here.

Phoenix Suns let me down, but that’s fine.

We go 1-1, so still even, and we move on to the next play-in games tomorrow. Here are my early picks.

I like Magic +1.5, and of course Clippers -5.5 with The Klaw.
Good luck, hope we go 2-0 tomorrow, not the other way around.

Very bad day. It was supposed to be another break even result, but the Clippers just couldn’t hold that big lead. In the 4th quarter they got destroyed by the Warriors.

Now my record drops to 1-3. Still early though, so I’ll just try to bounce back in the next game.

We got 1 day rest first before the games resume, so let's evaluate the last losses. 

[stadus]

Games will resume tomorrow, so I already placed my bets early.

In the first game, Charlotte has been on a good run and they’re still alive, but honestly I’m still not that impressed with the team. I understand the hype, and maybe that’s also why Magic are the underdog at home, so I’m going against that. With that said, I’m taking Magic +3.

In the second game between the Warriors and the Suns, I’m going with Team Curry here. They really impressed me with how they beat the Clippers, and for me the Clippers are a better team than the Suns, so I really have no reason to bet against them now. My pick is Warriors +3.5.

[stadus]

I got even, record is now 3-4. Now the playoffs officially begin.

Tomorrow we got 2 early games, and I’m betting early. If they lose, I might still continue on the last game.

I’m taking the home team first, Cavaliers -8.5. I feel like they are just a different team now, even though they lost to the Raptors in 2 of their last 3 games.
Then in the 2nd game, I’m also backing the home team. It’s a familiar matchup, and I like how the Wolves usually play against the Nuggets. So my pick there is Wolves +6.5.


1-1 now.. adding Rockets -4.5 to break the tie.

Philadelphia @ Boston - Boston -13
Phoenix @ Oklahoma City - Suns +14.5
Orlando @ Detroit - Magic +9
Portland @ San Antonio - Spurs -11

L.A. Lakers @ Houston = Houston -6.5 (must win, betting bigger on this)
San Antonio @ Portland = Spurs -3.5

Good luck everyone.
