Garnett under 14.5 @ 1.85 HL

Man, I hope someone else was riding this wave too, because seriously, what a bummer that KG didn't even get a single minute on the floor! It would've been killer if he did, but hey, I'll take the wins where I can get 'em, so I'm feeling pretty good about this haul😍. And you know how it goes with Durant and Westbrook—it’s basically a given they're hitting the over whenever they're playing on the road☕

Looks like Dame is still absolutely tearing it up—though tonight he seemed more interested in setting up his teammates than hunting his own bucket 😁

That’s seven straight wins in the bag, putting them right at the 8th seed in the East 🙏🙏🙏

The Knicks had seven players in double figures tonight... talk about depth 👍

That’s 7 straight wins and they're sitting at 8th in the East 🙏🙏🙏

Had 7 players in double digits for the Knicks tonight 👍

The way these guys have started playing, they don't even need Melo or Amare anymore😍,what do you think, Eric Fox7, can Boston actually take down Chicago today and maybe cover a spread?🤷,I'm getting nervous about Pierce since we haven't seen an over in 5 games now🤷,and what kind of luck am I supposed to have, betting the under only for them to go over anyway?😍

Well, last night was a total washout—lost both bets. 🙂

Both games were neck-and-neck until the final whistle—could have easily gone either way—but I’m not losing much sleep over that Portland win. 😁

Chris Ortiz said:Welcome aboard, pal. Just a heads-up—if you start getting skeptical about my picks like some stubborn old-timer at a sportsbook, you aren't going to have a very good time here.☕

I'll take you down right now, Benet.

🤣

Arthur Hill2 said:The Pacers have their third game in three nights tomorrow—they absolutely dismantled the Nets yesterday, too. With Brooks back in the lineup for Brooklyn, I’m curious to see where the betting lines land on the spread.

I’ve watched them a few times lately—they’re a mess, honestly. Their play is just abysmal. I was actually going to bet against them last night, but since Vareao was out and Irving wasn't a lock for Cleveland, I decided to pass. 🙂

Eric Fox7So, you’re an old-school Knicks fan, huh? 😁

Both games were totally neck-and-neck until the buzzer; things could’ve easily swung the other way, but whatever, I’m not losing sleep over Portland pulling it off. 😁

🤣

I've been catching a few of their games lately, and honestly? They look desperate. Just playing absolute garbage ball. I was actually thinking about betting against them last night, but eh, without Embiid, and Kyrie wasn't even a lock for Cleveland, so I just passed. 🙂

Eric Fox7, you’re one of those old-school Knicks fans, aren't you? 😁

Looks like he's caught the Linmania fever

Jeremy Kelly3 said:Today, it feels like Kevin Love was the only one putting up numbers with that +23. :clapping:
The rest of the performance leaves me feeling quite skeptical...

Best of luck.

Well, that turned out to be a decent outcome overall.

Look, Amare is solid enough—he’s holding his own—but honestly? If Melo decides to go off the rails, he could absolutely wreck everything we've got going here. 😢

stormyseal9 said:What do you think, Eric Fox7—you reckon Boston can actually pull off a win against Chicago today? And if they do, do you think there’s any chance they cover the spread?🤷

Honestly, betting on the NBA and I? We’re two completely different species. There's zero overlap there. 😁

I haven’t the slightest clue—honestly, after seeing zero draws from those thirteen games last night (running that 2,3 system), I’m feeling like we're due for at least two tonight. It feels overdue, you know? 🤣

James Taylor3 said:Eric Fox7So, you’re an old-school Knicks fan, huh? : D

Not exactly—honestly, the only reason I ever pulled for them was back during the Jordan era just because I couldn't stand Chicago—but Starks was always one of my favorites.

Yeah, look, I know—I'm getting old. I get it. 😢

Honestly, what's even the point of watching the NBA if you don't have a gritty, high-stakes Knicks squad to shake things up? It just feels empty without them. 🙂

wiredcanyon39 said:He’s gone full mania—it's like he's completely lost his grip on reality.

It’s not even like I’m obsessed or anything—I wouldn't call it a mania—but man, there's just something about how effortless he makes it look. Watching him play... honestly, it's kind of inspiring. He moves with such ease that it almost makes you think—and I say this with total humility here—that maybe, in my absolute prime, back when I was actually decent on the court, I could have held my own in the NBA too. 🤣The guy isn't exactly an elite vertical athlete or some high-flying dunker—though, let's be real, he’s plenty quick—but he plays with his head. He’s got that basketball IQ, that kind of mental sharpness you just can't teach.

Look, Lin’s got that economist brain, he actually knows how to crunch the numbers when it counts😍, which is something I get since we basically studied the same stuff—though honestly, if we're talking prestige, Princeton is my absolute favorite Ivy League spot for all those little math geniuses🤷. But hey, who cares about them? I’m focused on the Celtics and this weirdly inconsistent hot-and-cold rhythm they've been stuck in lately🤷. The days of living and dying by the three-pointer feel like they're fading, and from what I can see, Rondo is finally stepping up and turning into a real leader out there😉

Well, clearly most people are just as lost as you are, starting with the basic rules.
Do you actually realize that:
1. Your cover story is terrible?
2. You're breaking the rules?
3. Did you honestly think switching accounts would change anything if nobody was replying to your last post?
4. Bye. 👋

here's what I'm thinking:
Boston (-9.5) vs Detroit (+2) @ 1.85
Chris Paul under 18.5 points

Props to Boston 👏, I honestly thought they might pull off something big, but without KG out there, they just look totally lost.

Man, Portland is just something else—now that I’ve finally gotten the better of them, they go out and pull off a road win without even having Aldridge on the floor... and then you have Wallace, who everyone's been tearing apart lately for his perimeter play, suddenly turning in the performance of his life on the road. He absolutely went nuts last night—I mean, he was hitting everything from everywhere, finishing 4-4 🙂

And honestly, there wasn't a single draw in the bunch 😢
