Boston is hot though.... and really ribbon I expected you to say something like revenge for boston. Is there some other angle here for you going on orlando?

Houston and Indiana are both at 5 flat right now a days I like both. Going to parlay them also, but I'm considering throwing Boston in too... gah... I'm going to bet boston. Even without tatum (he may play) Boston are a solid road team, and their last 2 games they won by a combined 60~ points against the lakers, and a up playing grizzly team. If they were winning just because defence I would sit this one out, but they are scoring a lot and orlando is usually just defence so while they may slow down boston, are they going to score on them?


The Magic were up by 14 and took the foot off the gas. I don’t understand why they can’t stop the pick and roll to Kemba Walker. I was going by last years dominance but it bit me. I am going to stop betting against Celtics. Lol I also figured with some of the injuries. Magic may sneak a win. Not to be. Stevens doesn’t get enough credit for keeping them focused. I hate Detroit too! So many issues! I don’t know why I picked that flea. Griffin back on the bench and just plain under achieving. Gross!

7-0 hell yeah, hit that + 596 parlay

Bucks crushed the second half, Boston crushed the second half, Houston covered the second half by 1. Boston, Houston, and Indiana all covered full game, and that sweet +596 parlay on those 3 won.

Very nice 👍🏼 Well done!

I don’t mind losing when someone rips a nice parlay.

Going 3-0 on Houston with the full game, second half, and that leg of the parlay was the shocker here. Houston tend to screw me over.

The more I look at the NBA this year, second half is where it is at. When a dominate team like the bucks are down, or with a small lead. That seems to be the only really consistent thing. Obviously not 100 percent, but more reliable. This season's weird period has gone way longer than usual.

Pelicans have burned me a lot this year. Lose when they should win and win when you pick against them :eek:

Pacers +3
Portland fade

Clippers -3
Don't like it, but they have to get going. I'm making the play because while the Clippers haven't been great on offense, neither has orlando so the talent should prevail.

Boston -1
They were without 2 of their best last game and came through by double digits. Pelicans got zion going, and he has looked good, but he will have limited minutes. Riding Boston until a wheel falls off the wagon.

I thought about the Nuggets but man they are missing half their team. I'll wrap those 3 up above.

Well the clips covered, but Boston put up a dud, as has the pacers. Pacers are still playing, but they are really down big, so I'm just going to call it there.

I like Miami too tonight.

I'm also thinking of the jazz, it's dropped half a point and juiced on Houston at 12. I wish I had bet this last night

Are Russ and harden confirmed out?

Dallas and Miami covered. I got out of the parlay when jazz were down 5 in the first, which looked like a mistake afterwards because they went up a few minutes later, but I made a unit from hedging it so it worked out. Embarrassing for them though to lose at home to a rocketless rockets team.

Jazz may be the biggest wild card I've seen in recent years. They can do what they did last night, but could play well enough to compete for a ring. Makes you think that perhaps it's a coaching issue maybe?

Pacers-Bulls Handicap -14,5 odds 3.20 for Pacers win. 8 injured players in the Chicago side including many from the first squad. They will probably totally give up second half.

This line has dropped to 2. I'm going to take it on the other side. I expect Paul to play a motivated game after sitting out mourning kobe who was a close friend of his.

Memphis -2 also
Playing the knicks...

Parlay in them together

Considering the pacers who are getting their guy back today, but I don't suspect him getting a lot of minutes, so I'm on the fence about a line that large.

I thought maybe uninspired but Paul is a true warrior! Nice read!

I believe with the passing of Kobe Bryant. The Lakers will win the title in honor of him. What are the odds on them right now? +200 good value

Jerry West recognized Kobe Bryant's potential before anyone else. In 1996, West - then general manager of the Lakers - switched to Bryant, whom the Hornets called 13th for Los Angeles.

My issue with betting that is injuries. Davis or lbj out changes the whole dynamic. That said, they are being pretty cautious with both. Betting them and the bucks probably is close to a lock, wouldn't return 1 to 1, but I don't see anyone beating either of these teams in a series besides each other.
