I am excited to see Klay back in action sometime early 2022. Warriors vs. ? in the finals. I used to think Bucks but they keep getting injured with their starters, so I don't know anymore. Maybe the Nets?

I'm not so sure yet. Suns, Lakers can become stronger in the 2nd half of the season. Nets are favorites on the east.

I think that Phoenix Suns and Utah Jazz will play in the finale of this season, these clubs, in my opinion, are progressing.

For tonight, I think there is free money in the Raptors vs Warriors game. There's supposed to be literally none of the main Warriors players in the game. Curry, Wiggins, Green, Poole, Iguodala... All supposed to be out. Raptors also have had an extra 2 days of rest and play at home. So I will be putting a bunch of bets on the Raptors blowing this one out of the water.

First bet

In other news, the Nets are playing the Magic without Durant or Harden. I think the Magic could even win this, but Magic + 7 or so should be a good bet.

Edit: Woosh and just like that the odds have changed and betting on Magic is only at 1.9

 

[puzzlefish]

Still something to bet on for second half of the Raptors. Bet makers are thinking that Raptors winning the second half is at 1.8.

still waiting for some players to score

Would have been nice to win this one but GTJ ran cold and so did Looney, even though he managed 4 rebounds.

Last night was a good night with the Magic and Raptors games. Tonight, there is less excitement but still some good spots to get on.

Lakers are down most of their starting lineup due to COVID protocol. Only LeBron and Westbrook are notable. AD is out with a knee injury. Bulls have most of their starters and shouldn't have much of a problem dispatching the Lakers.

Bulls -6.5 > Lakers at 1.85

The Suns should have no trouble dispatching the Hornets. The odds are not worth betting on though for the points spread or total. I do expect some player props to go through though..

LaMelo Ball O19.5 points
LaMelo Ball O2.5 3-pointers
Chris Paul Points+Assists U24.5

LaMelo Ball ran cold, LeBron and Russ ran hot. 1/4.

I'll try a treble Bulls, Grizzlies, and Clippers all to win - odds turn out to be at 2.51

Suns > Lakers, CP3 U11.5 assists, LJ O20 points @2.4

After seeing the Spurs dismantle the Clippers,im pretty confident in the Kings at home taking down the Clippers.
For the other match i have Denver beating OKC.

I don’t have much information about NBA but I really like them have anyone meet NBA players closely like just in front of your self and talk to them？they are amazing I promised you if you talk to one of them face to face whit-in 10 minutes you will have pain in your neck I remember that I meet one of them and he was smoking you might not believe me he was tall and big about more than 2 meter and about more than 100 kg I called him and told him that you should not smoke he said why? I answered that it’s not good looking on you you should smoke cigar, big one from Havana and he started lounging saying that he will not forget my advice
sorry my post might be a little different according to the tread

Celtics -5.5 > Cavs, Tatum P+A+R O30, Brown P+A+R O25 @2.4

Cavs got the COVID. I am hoping that they can hit 100 points for another one of my bets that I made before I read about them missing some starters.

Worked out pretty well.

That's the thing about the Clippers. They can be terrible one night but Kings are so inconsistent that they can be even worse than the Clippers on another night.

Nuggets are being quite inconsistent as well as of late. I don't even know how to bet with them anymore. The Thunder were on a bit of a heater the last two games though.

 

[puzzlefish]

Tonight here's my bet builder for the Suns and Thunder game. The idea is to make it as low risk as possible but to have the odds effectively at 2.0 or more.

Suns O107.5, Suns win first half, P+A+R for the following: Booker O25, CP3 O20, SGA O25

I'll probably make a few more personal ones.

NBA Saturday:

New York - Atlanta (Less than 205.5 (Score 205.5) 2.00)

Milwaukee v Boston (Boston (Match Winner) 3.15)

Two bold statements and then time will decide if the idea is right.

 

[rachelle2291]

Quite astonishing that they have scheduled games on Christmas day. I wonder what the players think of that?
