Another game that the Lakers wasted in their homecourt, it was again, winnable, except for Davis missed FT and then he tries to make it up with that 18 foot jumper. And this is the first time that the Lakers lost at home.

But it's good to see that DK is having more playing time because of his last performance and then D'Lo relegated coming off the bench. However, the Magic looks exhausted in this game, they have shows resiliency and mature without their top scorer. Next for them is Detroit, so let's see if they can continue with their winning streak.

The Lakers lost again against the Nuggets on their homecourt, it was a good first half for the Lakers but didn't hold on to their lead as the Nuggets rallied in the third canto and grabbed the lead and ultimately won the game. Meanwhile the Magic defeated the Pistons as Frans Wagner nearly had a triple-double, scoting 30 points, grabbed rebounds and dished-off 8 assist.

Tomorrow the Magic will be playing against the Hornets and i will be rooting for them to extend their winning streak, Magic -5.5 @1.97.

Great catch on the Magic, yeah, if I will have to bet I will go with them as they are on the winning streak.

Wolves vs the Rockets, I will go with the Wolves at -1.5 1.71.

I think they can win this game although it will be very close, but the Wolves needed to put up some streaks here as they are very inconsistent. But playing at home, they could be very confident.

I've been reading some facebook posts about the NBA emirates cup, are you still following this? If I remember correctly, its was the Lakers that won the inaugural tournament. Do you have a tracker or something that monitors who qualifies or moves on to the next stage?

Lol at the Wolves, they have to climb up after a big lead by the Rockets, and then make it with a good lead. I thought that they are going to win but the Rockets force OT.

And we all know that when teams climb back, they are very tired and so that what happens here, tired legs and they were not able to commit and have the momentum and so the Rockets win in OT.

It is very risky to bet against the Rockets as of this late because they are playing good basketball and seems to me their confident is quite high. With regards to the Wolves, they are so inconsistent that i stay away on betting on them.

Meanwhile, the Bucks continue their winning streak by beating the Heat in a close game. No Giannis, no problem for the Bucks as Lillard carries the team to victory, fortunately though i have not place a bet on them because Giannis is out hehe.

Yea, it was a good game though, Wolves make a huge comeback and even take a lead. And I thought that I'm going to win because they have the momentum. But the Rockets can't be deny as they force OT and then win the game.

I guess the hype of the Wolves and ANT are gone now, they've make the bold move to trade KAT and now they are paying the price. Randle is good, but I don't see him as a perfect fit with Rudy or even ANT himself.

Bucks is so resilient in that game, no Giannis, no problem with them. But still, scary win for them, the Heat has a chance to win that but they just missed the shot.

Speaking of the Bucks, the Bucks are now rolling already after that sloppy start winning 7 of their last 10 games and currently on a 5-game winning streak.

I guess it's good to say that they had a problem with the chemistry, and I guess some of their players stepping up on offense is a good one as well. Their bench players are helping in scoring already. In their last 5 games which are all wins, their bench players have an average of 37 PPG which is a big help for Giannis and Dame who are their top offensive players.

It looks like their streak will be extended to 6 because their next game will be against the struggling Wizards. Whatever the case is, I hope their amazing performance will continue.

May parlay got ruined by the Mavs vs Jazz game, this two teams are high scoring, and they are way on track on the first quarter. However, they have a bad shooting night in the next 2 and then played defensed on the 4th.

I will just bet one game, it will between the Celtics and the Cavs, league leading but I will go with with the Cavs here. They are the underdog ML @1.98. Some games have started already, but there is still one great game to watch, another league leading clash in OKC vs the Rockets.

Congrats on your win mate, what a thrilling game as it was decided only in the last minute of the game. Mitchell was unstoppable in the last three minutes of the game, hitting all of the Cavs points with 3 3-points and the go ahead basket.

Another thrilling game between the Thunder and Rockets with the latter winning the game.

Thanks mate, it's good that I decided to one one single bet, at least I can get my money back, but damn the Heat, it destroyed my 5 game parlay with x16 odds,  .

I had the Heat with -2.5, and I'm still clinging that they could have forced the OT and then cover the spread.

I got the Kings vs Spurs 224.5. W

Mavs over Blazers -4.5. W

Rockets +4.5. W

Cavs -1.5. W

This could have been a massive win for you mate, x16 odds is hard to hit for me. Better luck next time.

Meanwhile, i have placed only one bet for tonight's game, Lakers +6.5 @1.93 against the Wolves. Hope Reaves will play today for the Lakers.

What a blowout, sorry for the lost bet

It looks like the Rockets effort of putting up a decent team is working now. If I remember correctly, they were the team that had a attempt for a playoff knockout spot last season but they left it too late. Good to see a 'new' face leading the charge.

I just had a little parlay yesterday,



Just trying to get a win, hehehe. As for your bet, damn Lakers, it was a complete blowout, Lebron=Lebrick for now as he is continue to shoot bad percentage. And it feels like the Lakers is becoming the Lakers of previous season, very inconsistent on the floor.

Congrats again on you parlay win mate, seems that you are lucky these days hehe.

Yeah, that was a blownout loss by the Lakers, Lebron James had a terrible night scoring only 10 point in 31 minutes, fatigue might have set-in has they were playing back-to-back games but i agree with you that they are inconsistent like the Lakers of last season.
