High Ballers Paradise: Offical NBA bets thread
 

Welcome to all degenerates and addicts. This is where I will be posting my picks. Please join me in my quest for greatness.

I am not going to do any season bets this year. So lets get the ball bouncing with some winners for tonight.

Utah Jazz at Portland Trail Blazers (Spread)
Utah Jazz +6,5

New York Knicks at Cleveland Cavaliers (Spread)
New York Knicks +9,5

San Antonio Spurs at Golden State Warriors (Spread)
San Antonio Spurs +8,5

No Favors or Hayward.... missing two of the teams best three players.... I take Portland here.

6 points is a lot for opening night. I have Portland to win forsure but 6 point is 2 to many. I think all the games will be competitive. Everyone will be giving it thier all and the good teams are not polished yet. Advantage dogs.

I am always a sucker for 4pts+ dogs.

I am ok with Detroit and LOVE the others.

KNICKS tonight!!!! Mark it down. Opening night, ring ceremony, fans going crazy, Clev pumped up and guess what. After it's all said n done, the orange n the blue are gonna cover..Take the points.. :) Makes total sense that the Cavs should blow them out and when it comes to a game like this, the opposite is the pick....

@NBAPicksKing. 20-12 (62.5%) since started posting. That's unsustainable, but 109-80 (57.7%) since Dec 2014 when started tracking. Don't take my word for it, all picks are posted prior to game.

I mean this team should be good... knicks are being the knicks.

I had to throw something down on the Spurs at that price, but I have zero confidence really.

Need a bad night from GS shooters and the Spurs to flat out execute.

Anytime you can get a spread like that for the spurs you gotta take it I say

What a start to the NBA season.


Random dog in a race called "Rick Grimes" parlayed in to the Spurs. $4 bet = $129

Money for tomorrow.

Who ya got?

Took the Knicks... depression in the 3Q always kills...

Ouch.

Not a horrendous bet seeing as LeBron teams generally are slow out of the gates.

But the Cavs and Lebron looked amazing. I think Lebron wants his MVP trophy back.

Took lillard over 36 1/2 pts/reb/ast and took warriors tonight...

Got t wolves +2 tomorrow

Wolves tommorrow. I think the wolves go 14-0 to start :)!

How bout them Knicks. ha.

Here are the winners tomorrow

Houston Rockets at Los Angeles Lakers (Spread)
Houston Rockets -6

Minnesota Timberwolves at Memphis Grizzlies (Spread)
Minnesota Timberwolves +2

Detroit Pistons at Toronto Raptors (Spread)
Toronto Raptors -7,5

Brooklyn Nets at Boston Celtics (Spread)
Brooklyn Nets +13,5

I'm with you on the Rockets. First half line too.

New coach, lots of new players, Lakers not going to be very good.

Went 1-0 in NBA and 1-0 World Series only to piss it away going 0-2 in Hockey

Grabbed Knicks 1st half + 5.5. Very lucky to pull that out. (I usually go anti ring ceremony team first half to come out flat, but in this game it was just lucky as Knicks closed in 2nd qtr)
Then the Florida Panthers crapped the bed and it was all break even.

Almost took SA/GS under 211.5 but held off and glad I did. GS played zero D

3-0 yesterday:
Cle -9.5
Port ML
SA +9.5

Today:
Hou/LAL over 222.5 **
Min +2
Den +2

Today I'd go:

Lakers +6
Memphis -2
Detroit -7.5
Boston +13.5

with a 3 team ML parlay of Lakers, Memphis, Boston

Wow it is so easy to win, I just pick the team with a - next to the #
