Am I a bit early? Looks like the season is underway and I am starting by placing $20 on the Raptors tonight (1.7), just because I strongly dislike Kuzma on the Wizards.

Also, some housekeeping. I will just paste this from ribbybruno's thread for last season:

Looks like I will start this off with -$20 as Raptors have played an absolute stercoraceous game of basketball, despite how terrible Kuzma is for the Wizards. However, if Raptors' starting line cannot convert their points then it is for nothing. It has just been that kind of a game. Dalano Banton has breathed a little bit of life into the Toronto lineup but it's a bit too late in the 4th.

your bet has entered, congratulations. I'm interested in the NBA, at what stage of the tournament? I myself played basketball at school, a very interesting game.

The season is just starting.
 
For tonight,

Hawks > Mavs
Warriors > Clippers
Bucks > Heat

Bucks are starting off strong from their previous season. Warriors seem to have an advantage with a good new rookie on their team while Clippers are without Kawhi and PG's shoulder may still be an issue.
 
The NBA season has finally begun. And Milwaukee handed over their rings. Many viewers were looking forward to it.

Hawks and Warriors won. Bucks ended up playing with a depleted roster, as they had picked up a lot of injuries. Credit to the Heat as well for having a much stronger team this season compared to the last. Tucker, Lowry, and Herro played very well alongside Adebayo and Butler. I will have to give this team a lot more credit.

For tonight, there are quite a few games:

Knicks > Magic
Hornets > Cavaliers
Wizards > Pacers
76ers > Nets
Celtics > Raptors
Rockets > Thunder
Bulls > Pelicans
Nuggets > Spurs
Kings > Jazz
Suns > Lakers
 
I’ll start this year’s NBA season (if already 75.) with two careful tips:
Washington v Indiana (Indiana (Match Winner) 1.98)
Orlando - New York (Over 210.5 (Score from 210.5) 1.66)
 
NBA season finally started! It is hard to say who will win these league, there are more teams who can. In these moment I can not see any game on TV and I am sad because that. I hope it will be better in the future. I am fun of Curry and Warriors. So lets go GW🙂

Why Indiana?
 
Nevermind, I see Beal is injured for the Wizards. Not sure if that is enough for Indiana.

Raptors played surprisingly well with Barnes. 76ers dominated for most of their game against the Nets but threw it away at the end by failing to challenge bad calls and poor decisions were made by their bench players. The rest has gone pretty much as expected.
 
For tonight, a lot of one sided matches. The only one I am really interested in is Grizzlies vs. Lakers where the Grizzlies are the underdogs despite having played well and the Lakers pretty chaotic in their first two games. Lakers are an aging team overloaded with older Allstar athletes. I am expecting some injuries shortly.

I'll go with Grizzlies > Lakers (2.6)

Warriors > Kings should be a fun game. I don't think I will bet on it but Warriors should take this.

The only other possibly interesting one is Rockets vs. Celtics. Celtics are on a skid and Rockets have a brand new team. Celtics are huge favourites so I am placing a small bet on Rockets (3.0).
 
I think the following Basketball teams will win on 10/25/2021


Milwaukee Bucks
Chicago Bulls
Atlanta Hawks
Minnesota Timberwolves
Portland Trail Blazers

Today I will try two score tips:
Philadelphia - Detroit (Less than 219.5 (Score: 219.5) 1.62)
Washington - Atlanta (Less than 220.5 (Score 220.5) 1.94)
Philadelphia with a good chance of winning, that Atlanta match has two chances, so I’d rather bet on points.
 
For tonight, I will go with

Jazz -9.5 > Rockets (1.9)

Hawks -3 > Wizards (1.9)

This is the season where the Knicks will finally end its drought.

Ruh-roh! Kuzma is actually having a decent game and Hawks underperforming?

There is one more game left: Warriors vs. Grizzlies.

I will go Warriors -6 and U 228.5.
