    Denver missed every big shot.. every single one and then davis and caruso get fts while denver doesn’t see the line on last 4 pos or so.. frustrating

      Nobody to tell me yesterday don't do it...skip this one...skip that one lol... ))) Bad night.. I really like some games by looking at the lines which can be a troubleeee....

      Pacers pk vs Thunder - I just think they are better team... They are deep, play well.. Pels didn't know what to do down the stretch vs OKC and CP got everything he wanted... I think Pacers don't get in the same spot... They are very well coached and once Oladipo gets back they could cause a lot of problems in the east for the teams if they are healthy...

      Hawks +3 and ML vs Nets - Nets had a good run beating some teams and playing well but I really like Atlanta here to build on last win vs warriors at home.. They might not have Hunter but I think they should be ok.. Nets playing well but I just their level might drop some on Spenc having to carry them.. I think Hawks win straight up this one...

      Suns -1.5 vs Magic - Magic played well yesterday, hitting their shots and now going back home where Suns are waiting...Problem is if Rubio is out I am not sure I am playing Suns even though Jerome was back and played well last game.. Suns missed soooo many open threes vs Hornets but somehow won that game in the end.. They are great 3pt shooting team percentage wise and Baynes does help with that and he is out tonight too but Diallo is back and I like him there to cut Kaminsky minutes some..Booker scored a lot but missed some wide open shots that he usually makes and I am betting on Suns playing better then last game and Magic not to repeat their great offensive display from yesterday..Fournier is playing great though...

      Mavs only -4 and Utah -2.5 even though on b2b... Conley is out but he has been pretty bad... Pistons getting 8.5 at home I kind of like... Russell might be back and Green is in ..can warriors snap that losing streak.... talk to me fellas...

        People here don't like to talk about basketball games

        I bet Nets beat the Hawks. They have a couple of former Hawks (coach Atkinson, Prince). Prince played poorly in his final season with the Hawks -didn't mesh well with ball dominant Young. I think he'll have his revenge here if he can avoid foul trouble vs Parker. They have a stronger/ healthier roster in any case.

        T'Wolves will cover in Dallas. Doncic is not a machine. I think Wiggins gets the better of him tonight as the schedule catches up to the Mavs.

        Utah... any other season I would say this is a spot to bet the Jazz regardless of whether they're slumping, but it seems different this season. They made some bad decisions and are paying the price. Mitchell will presumably play the point tonight which might be good for them since they like the ball to be in his hands a LOT (begs the question; why did they want Conley?).

I also think wolves have a good game i am just scared going vs mavs now but you are right ...even though they are deep schedule will have to take its toll... Yes utah should be way go to but not sure here... nets we disagree but i can see where you are coming from ...havent decided anything yet...bet bunch of soccer first

            What does Luka Doncic have to do to convince you he is a machine?

                  Nets, Suns, HEAT, Grizzlies, T'Wolves my plays tonight, all ATS.

                  Tempted on Pistons but I've seen that show before; Giannis getting Drummond into foul trouble and the Pistons melting.

                    I am liking grizzlies too.. also numbers I am looking shows pistons should cover 9 so I will probably have them... even though I remember those games from last year where pistons just dont have enough lol...

                      HEAT the worst bet I've made in ages there. Dominated in all the hustle areas. Entirely spent.

                        Got to be the worst place to play weary. Nuggets are there on a b2b two days from now.

                          Celts will mop the floor with the Nuggets. Heat were tired and it showed as the game went on.

                            Also speaking of that B2B coming up for the Nuggets vs Knicks and then Celtics, If Nuggets we're playing anyone in a non conference game besides the Knicks , who they do play on the first night of the B2B( or Cavs just as lousy as Knicks) I'd take the other team and hope to catch Nuggets looking ahead to Boston. They can look ahead all they want and still wipe out the Knicks lousy team and organization. Maybe we will get lucky and The Knicks will actually get up for this match up with Denver and try and go out and compete like men and attempt to give them a game.

                                  Off night for Doncic, but Wiggins no better. Towns not playing defense/ rebounding...

                                    Think I was right about the T'Wolves at the start of the thread. Too many idiots on the team. They've had some good road wins, but I think mostly catching teams that weren't ready.

                                      tough tough...can't get on a roll...what works for 1 game is completely off on the other and vice versa.. Not sure if I will play anything tonight..kind of like philla ..houston not sure if i can bet it against raptors but lowry back in might hurt them more than it looks...

                                        Sometimes best to take a few days off. Watch & learn (the games I mean..). I like the Pels tonight ATS. Both bad teams but the Pels have had their rock bottom moment while the Suns' is coming.

                                          Oh yeah I agree.. harder to get it done.. yeah I bet pels few weeks back in Phoenix and Ingram took that game.. they should cover and i tried pels few times so probably just staying away from that one.. philla should win by 20 easy imo..

                                              Never been a 4-man like Bertans in the NBA before. Hitting threes off motion ala Reggie Miller

                                                  Unreal the Spurs gave him up for basically nothing. Probably the worst move they ever made!

                                                    Unless the Nuggets suffer a 2nd half meltdown like they did in Sacramento this will be Fizdale's last day as an NBA head coach.

                                                        Suns & Pels both poor defensively. Suns have more structure to their offense with maestro Rubio at the controls. Pels offense is like a free for all.

                                                            I like hornets but skipping probably,
                                                            Detroit but already a lot of people like it so makes me nervous
                                                            Minnesota +4
                                                            Warriors +5
                                                            Clippers +4.5

                                                            For now

                                                              Took couple days off.. played nuggets 5.5 yesterday and small ML and clippers and pels day before...Pels threw it away..I really didnt understand Wizards being favor in Charlotte... A lot of games today...My early thoughts..

                                                              Pacers - Celtics - Line is up to +1.5 on pacers and I kind of like them today... Expected Clippers to beat them last time coming off road trip and even without Kawhai.. They have 1 main weapon in PG and Lou was there and I was right.. Now I expect fully focused Pacers team for match at home and Boston hasn't been overly impressing on the road.. They got Hayward back and first game was easy but now I expect them to struggle a bit to find all great shots even though their chemistry is great. Pacers know exactly who they are, how they play and where the shots come from... I think they take this one at home..

                                                              Kings vs Thunder - I am looking at this game and thinking can Kings follow great wins in Dallas and Houston with a win at home vs Thunder.. OKC has been playing good, has strong guard play and they play good defense.. I like Kings here though.. They will get Bagley back tonight and their level is rising.. After horrible start to the season they played a lot of good games and lost some tight ones on the road.. First home game after road trip always tricky but I am leaning kings way for now..

                                                              Wolves vs Jazz - I like Minny here at home.. They played 2 already splitting games and each winning on the road..Both teams struggle right now and playing bad.. Wolves defense has been pretty bad last 4,5 games.. Towns has to have big game and others to follow. Jazz give up way too many points off turnovers and their offense is not smooth right now.. I like Wolves to win here

                                                              Memphis +7 vs Suns - Suns got their squad healthy again but I like Memphis plus points here on first look. Morant is back in the lineup and even in rebuilding mode Grizzlies have been hanging and playing tough.. They have some young talented players and couple veterans.. I will take a little more look at this one...

                                                              I also like Hornets getting 9.5 in Brooklyn.. Still a lot of time to decide...

                                                                  Poor showing for Warren last game. Assuming he's not dinged up he ought to redeem himself. Turner is a deadweight -doesn't even play centre for them anymore since Sabonis is tougher physically & mentally. So he's basically this gangly 4 that doesn't move well. Pacers need to get rid of him while his value is still high. Celtics have made themselves a big villan with their pristine record so they're going down.

                                                                  T'Wolves, I agree there too. They match up well with the Jazz. Injuries are concern, and the jetlag too. Started the season great on the road and poor at home but that's really the opposite of what they are. Expect they will enjoy some home success now.

Yeah and Wolves really should have closed mavs on the road and win that one, then one in LA was lost before it started and loss at suns was bad.. So they need good defense and they kept it close to the end last time vs Jazz..

                                                                    You are correct about Turner.. he is just hanging around 3 and blocking some shots.. If Sabonis isn't in foul trouble he doesn't even finish games.

Host the Sixers tomorrow night though and J.Brown has already been talking shit about Simmons on social media so fair chance they're looking ahead.
