@Fuse

@SportsIntuition

 Yea definitely wouldn't fault you on this bet..weird one for sure

@MNSPORTSWIZ

 Thank you brotha! Would've gotten to injury reports later but appreciate the info now!

Hmmm...nothing in betting is easy so now the -8 line seems fishy.....like who in their right mind would take Orlando without banchero...should be at least -10.5 for cle here imo

YTD: (3-1)

Great Halloween opening here on covers, but made a major noob mistake and not look at the injury report for jazz game...no Markkanen shoulda been a no play from me but I'll learn.

Early coffee thoughts:

Den v Min - Ant definitely keeps his receipts, but without Towns, the Twolves Def suffered more. Randle is more aggressive offensively but against a championship team (who have gotten off to slow starts in pretty much all their games this season, and clawed back to win) it's gotta be defense that wins. Leaning Denver to finally get off to a fast start and hold it til the end...

Orl v Cle - Cleveland just has that winning combination of elite double guards and double bigs. Orlando looks similar, but they just have the elite SF in Paolo and he can have a big game, but I just don't believe in Suggs. Cleveland can definitely outpace the magic here.

Bos v Cha - miles bridges bounce back game..hornets will need to lean on him if they want any chance

Sac v Atl - lots of matchup problems for atl here, trae been carrying the load best he can for atl but sac's depth will be too much

Nyy v Det - Jalen Brunson breakout game. Can definitely crack 30 tonight

@Macwestie1

  haha hopefully only you scare me tonight and not my picks!

Gonna Track my progress for fun here  feel free to tag along! 

YTD: (0-0)

Mil vs Mem - ja Morant o 21.5 bounce back game.

Hou vs Dal - hou +6.5 dal playing really well and Luka has been cold (for him)...he'll have a monster game but Hou is just way deeper imo and got the better coach

Pho vs lac - suns -4.5 clippers on a b2b and banged up, and in my experience watching Durant he only cares if he's winning...and since the suns are on a nice streak atm, he'll keep trying for now. 

Spurs vs UTA - uta ML Utah is much better than 0-4, and wemby is struggling big time...he should bounce back but they arrived late in the high alts of UTA. Expecting markkanen and Clarkson to have big games and they should get their first W.

GL! 

D backs / cards o7.5

I have a bit of an unconventional approach to my bets…just tracking to see how it goes.

BOL to everyone today!

Sorry but Cleveland is the play..

If you think just a coaching change and travel can affect better players' performances I don't think you've ever played ball.

Travel doesn't mean squat these days with young guns. They have plenty of time to rest and warmup with shootaround and recover with ice baths and state of the art therapies. 

The Cleveland Boys had a tough loss to a monster game by the Joker, and poor shooting performances from garland and Mitchell. They will bounce back and you'll turn into the sheep tonight.

GL anyway!

Locking it in: All $5 on CLE ML.  BOL!

 Individuals.

Well The Grizz BLEW their game but we move on..

Today's Early Leans:

Cle ML - Too good of a team to lose 3 in a row. Garland and Mitchell both didn't have great games vs DEN, and although they are travelling to ATL on a b2b, they are a YOUNG team and more athletic than ATL without John Collins. I expect better 3 point buckets from Cle than ATL, and Jarret Allen/Mobley will lock the paint down.

Miami/Mil u218 - Expect a tough physical, playoff type matchup where every bucket counts. No giannis so Jrue will have to do a bit more thinking on offense. Excellent defenders on both sides.

Brooklyn ML - Brooklyn just looks like a free flowing "no pressure" team now with the media attention gone, and their core group just play really well together. Mikal can lock anyone down and Chicago just doesn't have a steady defender like him. Edge to Brooklyn.

Trying a challenge where I start with $5 and see how far we can push!

Today's bets:

Mem ML ($2)

Dallas -13.5 ($3)

Bol!
