NBA Betting: Vol. 2

Kevin Garnett isn't playing today.

What's going on with Kevin Garnett? 🙂

Ugh... how did the Deron Williams under 23.5 hit in the last 30 seconds? 🤦

And in such an incredibly stupid way, too.... 🤦 The Milwaukee Bucks were up 90:82 with just 19 seconds left on the clock, but the Brooklyn Nets refused to go down easy 🤣 by running some bizarre plays to try and erase an 8-point lead in 19 seconds. Naturally, he nails a three with 15 seconds remaining. 🤣

Oh, and one more thing...
Throughout that whole mess, Brook Lopez was practically irrelevant given how few shots he actually took. Honestly, I’m surprised....🙄

Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook combined for 91 minutes out of a total 124 allocated to the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Absolutely brutal.
😲

Man, just one more winner tonight to grab a fresh haul

Tony Parker over 18.5

Look, I told myself I was done betting games, but I just can't help myself with this one... we all know the Utah Jazz have been absolutely struggling to defend the backcourt—especially the point guard spot—and they're basically a walking target for anyone running a solid pick & roll, which, let's face it, is exactly what the San Antonio Spurs do better than anyone else in the league. Utah played yesterday, so they're probably feeling a bit sluggish, and with Manu Ginobili and Tim Splitter out for the Spurs (even though Splitter has been their absolute spark plug off the bench lately), I think Tony Parker is going to step up big time and drop something like 20 points without breaking a sweat...

Denver-Minnesota under 207.5

I honestly feel like they went a little overboard setting this line, mostly because both teams are on the second night of a back-to-back, so fatigue is definitely going to be a factor—especially for Denver, who had to grind through overtime yesterday. Plus, when you look at how many points they’ve been putting up and giving up this season (with Denver playing at home and Minnesota on the road), I really think we're looking at an under here...

What are your thoughts on the Spurs playing the Utah Jazz at 1.75?

The Spurs are still absolutely tearing through everyone in their path right now. Honestly, it’s worth riding them while they're on this run... As for the Jazz? I don't see them being convincing at all.

And maybe Luol Deng under 16.5... Rose is coming back into the rotation, and Deng isn't even 100% healthy yet.🤷

Man, after crushing it yesterday, I’m heading back in today to hunt down some more wins!😍

🎉

J.R. Smith -14.5+ over
Tony Parker -18.5+ over
Chris Lee -17.5+ over

🤷

Joe Johnson has been struggling significantly, averaging only 13.6 points through those 11 losses while shooting a meager 38.9 percent. He's averaged 13.5 points against the Bulls this season, shooting 3 of 17 in the loss AT Chicago.

Less than 18.5 @ 1.85

Too much for today. 🙂
