Tips for today

Los Angeles Lakers at San Antonio Spurs

Finally the Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant is coming back and he can’t choose a better time for his comeback. It will be his first appearance in a match against the Spurs in this season. The Lakers and the Spurs played twice and both games went differently. The first one won the Lakers 98-84 in San Antonio and the second one won the Spurs in Staples Center 112-91, as the Parker scored 29 points in the second match and Bynum had a carrier high 30 rebounds in the first meeting. At first I would like to say that this bet is very risky, but I think that the Lakers will win tonight with Kobe in the lineup. Team from Los Angeles kinda maturated without Kobe playing and that is a good thing with ending regular season and playoffs coming up. Adding to that Kobe will be thirsty to play and win, so my tip is that the Lakers will win.

Oklahoma City Thunder at Sacramento Kings

Well the winner here is obvious for me it’s of course the Thunder, but the odds on the win here are low. So my tip here will be on Westbrook. He’s not scored very well in the last two games, as he scored just 9 in a loss against the Clippers and 15 in a win against the Suns. BUT he is scoring very well against the Kings this season, when he’s totaled 55points in their last two meetings and this should and I hope it will be a good chance for him to get on track again before the playoffs.  My tip: Westbrook +23.5 points.

My bet

Westbrook +23.5 -odd 1.85

LA Lakers win -odd 3.07
=

5.68 * 5$ = 28.4$ win

Memphis Grizzlies will play against the weak Bobcats in Charlotte on Friday night, it should and it will be an easy win for the Grizzlies.

The Hawks will host the Celtics tonight. Boston will have to play without Rondo, Allen and Pietrus as they are all injured and didn’t travel with the team to Atlanta and even though they won their last two meetings it will be a different story tonight. Well rested Hawks will win.

Dallas will play at home against the Warriors, which are dealing with lot of injuries. Curry and Lee won’t play for the Warriors and because of that it will be an easy win for the Mavericks. I was thinking there about betting on Nowitzki that he will score more than 23.5 points, but I’m not sure if he will play that much tonight.

The Knicks will play in Cleveland and good news for them is surely that Amare Stoudemaire will be ready to play. Question here is what it will do with Carmelo Anthony's shooting appearances.  Most likely he will score a little bit less with Stoudemire on the court, but we will see. Anyway I won’t bet on Melo scoring and neither on a winner here, because of the odds. The Knicks will win, but it’s just not worth it.
