Why I don’t like betting basketball…. You never know when they’re giving these guys time management days

when did basketball players become so fragile? Maybe they should shorten the regular season and put an end to the back to backs

Have to check sites to see who is playing
It should be obvious though
Back to back against the same team
A bad team
OKC is a fucking covering machine though
51-32 ats this and last year
They don't quit despite lacking talent
Oddsmakers still not adjusting

just to add fuel to the fire here, the style of play is so weak now. Any touch is a foul, game is a mini three point contest, no post game... plus after game recovery therapy and treatments are much better, yet these dudes still can't play a full season?

Funny you mention this

I used to follow it like the back of my hand and did quite well but finally got tired of the way the game changed

But anyhow, I bet the Washington/Detroit under 220.5 last night

It looked like a sure win late in the game easily staying under, but then being it was a blowout, in comes all of the scrubs from both sides, running around like a bunch of idiots playing no defense, fouling each other, trying to pad their stats, and next thing you know the total has exploded in only the last 4 minutes of regulation

Luckily it still stayed under by a point but this is just another example of why it's a joke these days

So many out of control variables that do not have patterns established and never will

I don't even lock in my games until a few minutes before the game. It's gotten insane. For example, wasn't Alexander on the Thunder definitely not going to play and then he ended up playing? Crazy.

I'm an optimist and lemons into lemonade kind of guy though. So going to do my best to use this to my advantage. For example last season, especially with the Warriors, when you check the local news, etc with the team, you hear strong rumors or certain comments from the coach the night before or even sooner, that they plan to rest some key starters for a back to back situation or whatever. I just pound the other team and basically gamble that the key starters will sit. It worked out a couple of times. Another time I remember a team of back ups beat a good team so you never know haha.

Anyways, yeah. The NBA is very tough. I like to try to get both sides of an action with live betting. In the NBA, with about 230 points scored in a game of runs, you can often get action on both sides if you follow the live-betting from start to finish. Either that or get some very favorable numbers.

No matter what you do though, the NBA is freaking tough, You never know when teams are going to show up and actually try. Not to mention with the way the NBA is nowadays, it's all about who is hitting their three-pointers on any given night, that's about it.

Basketball players making millions and millions of dollars per year to play a game actually think "they have it rough"

No joke

Anyone getting paid to play a game is living the dream and should have more respect for the average everyday worker who makes their lifestyle possible

none of these players would last in the 80's or 90's
these old guys would play 3 games in 4 or 5 nights without complaining, now these so called athletes they get a broken finger nail they are out for a week.
This league is soft.
