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

With that, my pick is Spurs -2.5.

Won my bet on the Spurs, record is now 26-27.

Moving on to another game, it is Game 4 of Cavaliers vs Knicks. Some of you may think the Cavaliers will at least win one game at home before losing the series, but I will go against that because I believe the Knicks’ winning streak has more weight here.

I see value on them, so I’m betting on the Knicks ML to finish the series and take an early rest while waiting for their opponent in the NBA Finals.

The easiest bet, 27-27, finally back to 50%.

Now let’s move on. I like OKC at home, but at the back of my mind something is telling me that the Spurs might win this game. So I decided not to bet on the spread and instead went with a player prop.

Judging from the last 2 games, it seems the Spurs are still focused on limiting SGA, so I think the 30.5 points line is quite high.

With that, I’m betting on the under.

My pick: SGA under 30.5.

[stadus]

My pick: SGA under 30.5.

Rough start for SGA, I thought this bet would be an easy hit, but in the end he still finished with 32 points, so that is an L.

With that, the record is now 27-28.

We will wait for Game 6. I will not place my bet early this time, I’ll study a bit and see if there will be line movement, but I will probably go back to betting on the spread.

[stadus]

Spurs line is very steady at -3.5 even if the public is betting on them hard, and that is what I don’t like. I don’t really want to ride with the public this time.

So I will gamble with OKC because even if they lose, I expect it to be a close game, which still gives them a chance to cover the spread.

With that said, my pick is OKC +3.5.

[stadus]

With that said, my pick is OKC +3.5.

27-29, I was wrong with my analysis here. Turns out the NBA wanted a Game 7.

But in Game 7, I think both teams will really fight hard for the win. It is hard to tell who will win because for sure it will not be another blowout game. If it will be close, then it is possible the Spurs can still cover even if they lose. So I guess I will just bet on the under, thinking this will be a very defensive game.

My bet: under 213.

[stadus]

My bet: under 213.

27-30 is the updated record. That last shot by the Spurs really ruined the under.

Now we wait for the Finals and let’s see if we can still end on a positive note. Congratulations to those who backed the Spurs, they fought well and they deserved the win.
It was a tough loss for the bet, but that is how it goes sometimes. One shot can change everything.

Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

Current line, NYK +4.5 vs Spurs.

This is tough since Spurs really played well at home in the WCF, so I guess everyone will be riding on them. With that, I will be backing the visiting team as I trust them, even if they are down big they will always find a way to come back.

So if they can make it a close game, even if Spurs win, I think +4.5 is manageable for them to cover.

[stadus]

I think +4.5 is manageable for them to cover.

That was sweet, they did not just cover but also won the game. Record now is updated to 28-30.

Okay, after that win I think Spurs will bounce back strong. From -4.5 in the first game, now it is at -6.5. Seeing this kind of line makes me smile as it looks like an easy bet for me. I would take the Knicks 100% with that spread.

That could increase as the game gets closer, so I think it is wise to pick this early.
