NBA Betting: Vol. 2

Really solid night in the NBA so far, though we didn't see many favorites hit their marks—except maybe Minnesota, but honestly, that game felt like a total coin flip to me anyway.
I just can't bring myself to call the New York Knicks favorites against anyone, really.

Everyone's getting too excited 😁

Boston by 19 points 🙂

Denver's cruising ☕

Man, Denver is killing me... they hit a three with just 3 seconds left in the quarter, then go on a fast break and miss a wide-open shot...

You mean Dallas

Can someone pull together some NBA betting lines (with the spreads) from Germany? 🙂

Throw in the halftime/full-time odds too 🙂

Thanks, by the way

no prediction 🙂

Got the Milwaukee and Dallas matchup on deck today.

I'm going to take a skip today. 😁

Nothing particularly stands out to me, so I won't force it.

pick: Denver -11.5 @ 1.85

It’s pretty straightforward when you look at the numbers—the Nuggets are just a nightmare matchup for the Kings. You can really see the cracks in Sacramento's interior defense, especially since they're giving up an average of 53.7 points in the paint per game. On the flip side, Denver's offense is sitting right up there in the league's top three, specifically because they absolutely dominate inside, averaging about 49.7 points in the paint.
If you look back at last night's game against Memphis, Sacramento surrendered a wild 72 points in the paint, which pretty much tells you everything you need to know about their struggle to protect the rim.
Denver finally got some rest after that grueling Back to Back series, so they're heading into a matchup against a Sacramento squad that looks totally broken and likely won't be able to put up much of a fight.

Final score 110:83 That was a massive blowout, honestly. The Kings just couldn't stop anyone inside, giving up a whopping 68 points in the paint 😲 which, at the end of the day, is exactly what decided the whole thing. ☕

Arthur Hill2 said:Man, there are way too many of those 26.5 margins on Rose at Supersport.

He played 44 minutes yesterday, basically the whole second half, so I guess he might have an easier job today instead of trying to dig himself out of a 19-point hole.

👍 cleanly taken

My Denver analysis totally went south—I had them pegged, but then Boston just absolutely wrecked my 1/1 parlay. I mean, seriously, how do you go out and let a group of Nets like that take the lead against you by halftime? 🤦

Quick question..

Why does Supersport always wait so damn long to post the NBA lines for team totals and specific team point totals?
I’m talking about all the games. They’ll drop the halftime lines or a few games early around 10 AM, but the rest of them show up super late. Yesterday, they didn't even put the margins out for the rest of the slate until after 5 or 6 PM....

Anyone know why they do this?

lonedrifter68 said:Quick question...

Why does it always take so long for them to post the NBA offers on Supersport, specifically the team totals and individual team point spreads?
I mean, they usually have the lines for half the games or just a few matchups ready by 10:00 AM, but everything else stays pending for a really long time. Just yesterday, they didn't get the margins out for all the games until after 5:00 or 6:00 PM...

Does anyone actually know why it works this way?

It’s because our guys are basically just copying data from elsewhere, but they run into trouble when there's nothing new to copy...🤣
The reason they struggle to update quickly is that online sportsbooks are constantly waiting on the latest news, especially if there's a major storyline involved like tonight with LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, for example... and since it's currently nighttime over in America, that kind of information doesn't start trickling in until much later in the day here...

I played a few more games just to stay active, since there aren't really any matchups worth watching today

Today's parlay picks

Chris Bosh over 18.5 at 1.85
LaMarcus Aldridge over 21.5 at 1.85
Jennings over 18.5 at 1.85
Dirk Nowitzki over 23.5 at 1.85
Kobe Bryant over 26.5 at 1.85🤷

I'm definitely dropping another one on later today too

Atlanta-Miami - 1 @ 2.25 ... $167

Good luck!

Good luck!

You got a specific reason for this, or is it just because they're playing on the road?😁

Wade is dealing with an injury, and LeBron James is clearly playing through some discomfort too—it looks like Chris Bosh is the only one in peak condition right now.

Besides, they still haven't reached an agreement regarding the Atlanta defense.

Everything really hinges on whether LeBron James and Wade actually suit up. I believe I read somewhere that Wade intends to play; he was able to yesterday, but he sat out specifically for today's game.🤔

I mean, when it comes to Miami, everyone’s asking if Wade and LeBron are actually going to show up—kind of like what Bones was saying earlier... But hey, we'll know for sure, obviously, just a little bit before tip-off hits.

Andrew Bynum under 19.5 @ 1.85
