Oh well, there goes my profit for the last two weeks, lost two big bets in two days. It's pretty frustrating how you think you are understanding the game well but it turned out the opposite. Raptors got dominated by the Cavs in the paint. Thank you guys though for the kind words, really makes me feel better from the loss, really appreciate it. I will probably take one or two days off to cool myself down

Not a bad first half for the Raptors, Lowry and DeRozan are getting the jobs done. They could've closed out the second quarter stronger though.Luckily Irving is in foul trouble for the Cavs.

Some other things to point out:
- The Raptors are currently number three in the league in forcing turnovers. Their opponents turn the ball over 15.9 times this season. On the other hand, turnovers had been a major problem for them. During their three game losing streak, they turn the ball over 19.3 times a game. The Raptors need to take the advantage of the Cavalier turnovers. - JR Smith has been struggling a lot over the last couple of games. He shots 7 for 40 over his last 5 games, including a 1 for 11 game against Dallas and 0 for 11 game against Philadelphia. He is completely lost on the court for some reason (not to mention his in game huge with Jason Terry). This is another advantage that the Raptors need to take in a key game like this.

I'm going to watch the game live in Air Canada Center (I live in Toronto, ofc). Exciting game, Go Raptors.

The Toronto Raptors have the longest active winning streak in the league right now, winning six straight games, this will be an revenge game for the Raptors as they are hosting the Cavaliers, who lost three straight. Cavs lose their first seat in the Eastern Conference if they lose. Some of the things to look into: - Patrick Patterson is playing much better after a slow start to the season, shooting below 30% in his first 11 games of the season. He shot combined 3 for 12 from the field in their first two meetings between the two teams, including a three that would've tied up the game on Oct 8th. IMO he was a part of the reasons why the Raptors fell short in the first two games against the Cavs. However, he is 21 for 38 from the three-point line over his last 8 games. Patterson averages almost 29 minutes a game (most minutes amounst the Raptor bench), if he can start playing well and knocking down those 3's, I think it can bring a change to the game. I expect him to play at least better than the previous two games, and actually bring a contribution to the team. - Kyle Lowry has been playing consistently well against the Cavs. He is on fire from the 3 point line, shooting 24 for 33 in his last 5 games. The point guard duel between Lowry and Irving is exciting as well. - Before the lost to the Cavs at the beginning of the season and the lost in Game 6 of ECF last season, the Raptors have won 5 straight games at home against the Cavs. The Raptors have been playing considerably well at home this season (7-3). Playing at home gives the Raptors a lot of confidence.

Raptors ML@1.83 My stake: 80 units ($4000) well, my total stake has always been around this amount everyday, expect this time, I'm placing all of them in one bet. This is approximately 20% of my bankroll which I use in sports-betting.

George and Miles will see limited minutes tonight, but still don't know if the Clippers can cover, staying away from this game. Good luck if you are betting.

Another tough loss..its pretty frustrating how every time I go big on a single game I lose. Oh well, I guess we gotta have to move on, its a marathon. I will be making a couple more live bets later, hopefully I can make up for the loss on the Pistons. I think I'm gonna have the biggest bet of the year on a single spread tomorrow, been waiting for that game for a month (probably 15-20 units, depending on the line).

But his presence will be a boost for the team morale. Drummond could be a problem tonight as the Magic have decent rim protectors, but I feel like Harris will have a big game tonight against his former team.
