Recap of yesterday’s games

Milwaukee Bucks at Indiana Pacers

The Bucks fails once again to win and I believe that they are out of the playoffs. They are very frustrated as they shown that in this game. It’s kinda sad, but I understand. Granger had a game-high 29 points. Final score: 109-118

Minnesota Timberwolves at Detroit Pistons

Minnesota finally ended their long losing streak and has managed to win without Kevin Love. Pekovic had a game high 23 points. Final score: 91-80

Chicago Bulls at Miami Heat

The Bulls again without Derrick Rose faced the Heat in Miami and they failed to repeat their victory against the Heat. James carried Miami to 72-83 win over Chicago. James had a game high 27 points with 11 rebounds.

Houston Rockets at New Orleans Hornets

The Hornets proves that they are very strong at home as the season is coming to an end. The Rockets on the other side struggles, they are now out of playoffs on 10^th place in the Western Conference. Final score: 99-105

Los Angeles Clippers at Phoenix Suns

The Suns are pushing themselves into the playoffs as they beat the Clippers yesterday. They are now on the 8^th place and have a good chance to participate in the postseason. Cris Paul had a double-double 19points and 10 assists, but it wasn’t enough to beat the Suns. Final score: 90-93

Tips for today

Milwaukee Bucks at Indiana Pacers

Milwaukee is playing for the playoffs and they kinda disappointed me, when they lose yesterday against the Wizards. I was hoping that the Bucks will play in postseason, but it really doesn’t look for them. Tonight they will have to face to the Pacers in Indiana and they are one of the best teams at the end of the season. The Pacers are really looking good before the playoffs as they almost locked themselves in 3^rd position. And I think that they will win today. But I will bet on Deny Granger that he will score more than 19.5points as he averaged 24.6 points in his last seven home games against the Bucks. It will be a close game I think so he will play a lot.

Los Angeles Clippers at Phoenix Suns

Interesting game will be played in Phoenix, when the Clippers come to visit. The Suns are trying to be in the Playoffs and on the other side the Clippers are trying to win the Pacific Division. Again very hard to tell game as every game tonight, so I won’t bet on any team, but I will bet on the Clippers that they will score more than 97.5 points. The Suns are allowing a lot of points lately.

My bet

Granger +19.5 -odd 1.85

LA Clippers +97.5pts -odd 1.85
=

3.42 * 10$ = 34.2$ win

Other

Detroit will host the Timberwolves tonight. Minnesota again without Love (and of course Rubio) will try to finally win something. I’m not sure if they accomplish that in the home of Pistons. I just can’t decide who will win, so I’m not recommending that for a bet.

The Bulls will play in Miami on Thursday night. The Bulls will be most likely without Rose again, but Deng should be ready. Their last meeting ended in overtime, where the Bull scored 10 more points than the Heat. For today I think that the Heat will win. Wade and Bosh rested last game, but they will be in the lineup today. Win for the Heat, but I won’t bet this one.

The Rockets will play in New Orleans and the home team is playing a good basketball at home lately, while the Rockets are struggling to finish the season and end in the playoff seat. I think that even though the Rockets are not in a good mood lately they will finally wake up and will try to push into the playoffs. So I think they will beat the Hornets, but …

Recap of yesterday’s games

Indiana Pacers at Philadelphia 76ers

Close match as was expected. After the 3^rd quarter the game was tied 70-70, but in the last quarter the Pacers scored 32 points, while allowing 27. Final score: 102-97. Granger had a game high 24 points.

Cleveland Cavaliers at Detroit Pistons

Huge win for the Pistons on Tuesday night, one time they have lead by 50. Final score: 77-116. Knight had a game 28 points.

Boston Celtics at New York Knicks

New York played once again without Stoudemire, so Carmelo Anthony has to step up and he did big time with triple-double 35points, 12rebounds and 10 assists, as the Knicks beat the Celtics 110-118. Pierce had a game high 43 points.

Memphis Grizzlies at Minnesota Timberwolves

Struggling Minnesota one again lost this time to the Grizzlies. Final score: 91-84. Both Barea a Gay had a game high 28 points.

San Antonio Spurs at Los Angeles Lakers

Los Angeles Lakers without their superstar Kobe Bryant, well he was on the bench as some kind of assistant of the coach. And the Lakers had shown that they need him on the court even though they get better as a team. While Parker played very well and had a game high 29 points and added 13 assists. Final score: 112-91.

Tips for today

Indiana Pacers at Philadelphia 76ers

Philadelphia will host the Pacers and they are on a good run winning 10 out of their 11 games and are looking for their sixth straight win in Philadelphia today. Team from Indiana is just playing good lately and with such smoothness. On the other side the 76ers are not winning that easily. They lose yesterday against the Magic (which were playing without Howard and Turkoglu). They also lost at home against the Raptors and New Jersey. The Pacers are just looking good now and I think that they’ll win again today in Philadelphia.

Boston Celtics at New York Knicks

Interesting match will be played in Madison Square Garden tonight as the Knicks will face the Celtics. If the 76ers lose tonight, than the Knicks will have a chance to have a lead on that seventh playoff seat. Tyson Chandler for the Knicks might not be on 100% ready. On the other hand big three (Garnett, Pierce, Allen) should be ready on Tuesday night. But the Knicks have Carmelo Anthony and well his performances lately are just amazing. Not sure who will win, but if I have to guess I would go for the Knicks. Anyway I won’t bet on the winner of this match. I will bet on that Anthony will score more than 27.5 points.

My bet
Pacers win -odd 2.3
Anthony +27.5pts -odd 1.85
=
4.26 * 5$ = 21,3$ win

Other

The Pistons will host the Cavaliers. Both teams are out of the playoffs. Irving won’t play on Tuesday night because of injury and even if he did I think that Detroit will win. Both teams are not playing awesome basketball, but the Pistons are a little bit better.

Minnesota will face the Grizzlies on Tuesday night. Marc Gasol won’t play against the Timberwolves tonight, but even without him the Grizzlies should win in Minnesota. The Timberwolves will be again without Kevin Love and they are just not play that good without him. The Grizzlies will win.

San Antonio is going to pay a visit in Staples Center as they will play against the Lakers. Team from LA won their last meeting in San Antonio 98-84 even without Bryant. Kobe won’t play again tonight, but the Lakers are playing good with or without their legend. The Spurs are resting before the playoffs, so it’s not sure how many minutes their superstars will play. Hard to decide here who will win, that’s why I would not recommend betting on this one, but if you must (for any ridiculous reason) go with the Lakers.

Tips for today

New Orleans Hornets at Charlotte Bobcats 

The league worst Bobcats will host the Hornets. Well I can’t say anything positive about the Bobcats really they’re just bad this season oh wait every season. Team from New Orleans on the other side is showing improvement at home especially, but I think that playing at Charlotte won’t be a problem for them. On top of that their point guard Gordon is back after injury as he scores 18 points last night against the Grizzlies. The Hornets will win.

Philadelphia 76ers at Orlando Magic 

The 76ers will pay their visits in Orlando and they will have a big chance win there tonight. The Magic are without Howard and Turkoglu. They might be even without Davis who steps up when Howard is injured.  Davis left the game yesterday with sprained right knee. So my tip here is the 76ers win.

Denver Nuggets at Houston Rockets

The Rockets will play at home today after yesterday’s loss in Denver. And I think that team from Houston will win this time and will take their revenge at home. They have to with Phoenix behind them fighting for the last playoff seat in the Western Conference.  It will be tough, but the Rockets will win.

Other

The Hawks are coming to Toronto on Monday night. Both teams played yesterday and that match came out better for the Raptors surprisingly for me. Atlanta need their last road win before the playoffs to feel better and more confident. That’s why I think they’ll take their revenge tonight and win.

Utah will host the Mavericks on Monday night. The Mavericks are coming back from the overtime loss against the Lakers yesterday. But in their last three meetings against the Jazz they’ve managed to won all of them. Anyway it’s hard to say who will win this match I have a feeling it’s going to be team from Utah. They are more rested than Dallas and have to try to fight for the last seat in the playoffs. But I won’t bet on this one.

The Suns will try to win at home against the Trailblazers. And they should win if they want to still have a chance to be in the playoffs this season. Well I think they’ll win, because the Trailblazers have lost their hopes to be part of the postseason. My tip: Phoenix wins

The Thunder will in Los Angeles tonight. And it will be very interesting game. Not sure who will take this one as the Clippers won their last meeting in Oklahoma. I won’t bet this one, but I’ve got a feeling that the Clippers will win.

Hard to tell game will be played in San Antonio tonight. Coach of the Spurs can or cannot rest his superstar starters (Duncan, Parker, Ginobili) and that’s why I can’t say on 100% if they’ll win against the Warriors, but I think they can handle the team from Golden State even without them.  

Easy win for the Pacers at home against the Timberwolves. Minnesota is without Rubio and lately even without Kevin Love, he might be out for the rest of the season, as Phil Collins said in his song: “You can’t hurry love (to come back)”. So I think it’s not going to be hard win for the Pacers.

The Nets will host the Heat. Miami is going back after the victory against the Knicks last night. It was like a statement game for them to win on the road against the team like New York Knicks. So I think they will continue in that win again tonight.

The Wizards are coming to Chitown.  The Bulls have back their superstar, NBA MVP Derrick Rose and it should be an easy win for Chicago.

Recap of yesterday's games

Golden State Warriors at LA Clippers

The Clippers won at home against the Warriors as expected. Team from LA started huge with 12-0 run and just sticks to it till the end. Cris Paul had a game high 28 points and 13 assists.

Cleveland Cavaliers at Washington Wizards

The Cavaliers visits the Wizards in Washington yesterday. And even without their center A. Jamison, they managed to won the game. Final score: 98-89. Harangody had a double-double 16 points and 10 rebounds. Wizards point guard John Wall had a game high 19 points.

Boston Celtics at New Jersey Nets

New Jersey hosts the Celtics on Saturday night. And it was a very even match, but Boston outscored the Nets in 3^rd quarter 26-13 and won the game. Rondo again with double digit assists (15).

Utah Jazz at Memphis Grizzlies

The Grizzlies once again proves that they are very good at home as they beat the Jazz 103-98. Rudy Gay had a great game scoring 28 points with 10 rebounds. Mayo 4-5 from downtown had 20 points.

Oklahoma City Thunder at Minnesota Timberwolves

The Timberwolves didn’t give up this game that easily as I expected, but without still without Love they eventually lose to the Thunder 115-110. Kevin Durant had a game high 43 points.

Indiana Pacers at Milwaukee Bucks

Milwaukee hosted the Pacers last night. Every game for the Bucks are now must win games as they fight for that last playoffs seat, but the Pacers were against. Final score: 105-99. And the Bucks are now 2.5 behind the Knicks.

Phoenix Suns at San Antonio Spurs

Easy win for the Spurs yesterday as the Suns didn’t play well. Final score: 91-105. Tim Duncan had a double-double 19 points and 11 rebounds.

Tips for today

Cleveland Cavaliers at Washington Wizards

Both teams are off from the playoffs; together with the Bobcats are those teams worst in the league. Yesterday Wizards suffered a big loss against the Knicks. Washington played in New York and scored only 65 points. And I think that they will make it up for it today and will beat the Cavaliers. They will have to play without Irving again who is averaging 18.8 pts. In the last meeting Wizards won 101-83 and will win again today.

Indiana Pacers at Milwaukee Bucks

Well this is hard one to guess. The Bucks are fighting for that last seat in the playoffs after loss to the Knicks. They just have to win everything now and have to hope, that the Knicks or Philadelphia will lose. But and this is huge but the Pacers are really, really good. They have won their last meeting by 21 points in Milwaukee. The Pacers will play in the playoffs that is for sure so there is much lesser pressure on them, but they will try now to secure home court advantage in the playoffs. As much as I sympathize more with the Bucks I think they’ll lose.

Other

The Clippers should win at home against the Warriors. Team from Golden State lost their 10 of 12 matches and today it will be another loss for them, even though the Warriors won in their last two meetings.

Even though Boston will play in New Jersey, they should win here. The Celtics lost their game in Toronto yesterday, when they didn’t respond fast enough. But I think that today they will win against the Nets.

Memphis will host the Jazz tonight and they will continue in playing good at home. They are looking for their seventh straight win at their arena. Zack Randolph missed their last meeting, when the Grizzlies lost. And he can be a game changer here with helping his team to defend the Jazz center Al Jefferson. That’s why I think they will win.

The Thunder is going to Minnesota and it should be an easy win for Oklahoma. The Timberwolves are not playing great and by that I mean, that they are just bad now.

Not saying that the Suns don’t have a chance today in San Antonio, but I think that Gregg Popovich’s team will win. The Suns won yesterday in Houston, but the Spurs are much bigger opponent.

Note: very strange games will be played today. Some obvious games with low odds or very even teams are playing. And I don’t want to the risk, so I won’t be betting today.

Recap of yesterday's games

As expected the Pistons won in Charlotte. Easy win for the Pistons 109-85. Game high scorer Monroe had 25pts.

Much more interesting match was played in Chicago. The Bulls host the second best in the Western Conference Miami Heat and it was a very tough match for both teams. Rose played some minutes, but end up with 1-13 shooting and career low 2pt. But the bench for the Bulls came out huge, especially Kyle Korver, Gibson and CJ Watson who tied the game with 2.2s to go in the match. Wade missed his jumper and the game went to the overtime where the Bulls outscored the Heat 12-2 and finished off the match. 86-96

The Clippers visits the Timberwolves and the team from LA won. Minnesota without All Star player Kevin Love weren't much of a problem for the Clippers. Final score 95-82.

The Spurs host the Grizzlies and at the end they won the game by 10. 97-107 Duncan with game high 28pts and 12 rebounds.

And the last game was played in Golden State. The Warriors host the Mavericks and the team from Dallas won 112-103. Nowitzki with team high 27pts and for the Warriors game high Lee with 30pts and 8 assits.

Tips for today

Detroit Pistons vs Charlotte Bobcats

Worst team in NBA Charlotte Bobcats will host team from Detroit. The Pistons tonight will get their fifth straight victory against the Bobcats. The young Bobcats just don't have what they need to win. For me this game is 100% victory for the Pistons and with not that bad odds.

Miami Heat vs Chicago Bulls 

The Heat are coming to the home of Chicago Bulls. And it will be a very close and tough match to win. Despite the injury of Rose the Bulls are playing good as they shown against the Knicks. Miami lost their track recently, they allowed the Celtics 115pts at home. Those two teams will fight for the first place in the Eastern Conference and this match could show who will take it. I would and I will bet, that the Heat will get together tonight and they'll win in Chicago. 

Other

The Clippers will win in Minnesota tonight. The Timberwolves really struggles these days and tonight it's not going to be any different.

Even though the Grizzlies are playing well lately it's not going to be enough today to beat the Spurs. It's expected that all stars from San Antonio will play and they'll recover from yesterday's loss.

The Warriors will host the Mavericks. Team from Golden State is without Ellis who was trade to the Bucks and without Curry who is injured. And even tough David Lee is playing good minutes it's not going to be enough to beat the Mavs. Dallas is without Odom, because both sides agreed to part ways.

Tonight I would bet all the games and with those tips I just wrote.

Recap of yesterday's games

The 76ers won in Toronto 93-75. Young scored 17pts for the 76ers and Anderson 13pt for the Raptors.

Not surprising win for the Pacers at Cleveland 104-98 in OT.

The Celtics won against the Hawks in overtime 86-88. Rondo once again managed 20 assists.

Interesting match was played in Milwaukee. The Bucks were trying to get the last playoff seat, but Knicks won in very close match 111-107. Anthony scored 32pts for the Knicks and for the Bucks Monte Ellis had 35pts and 10 assists. 

The Grizzlies proves once again, that they are strong at home. They beat the Suns 93-104 with Gay scoring 32pts.

Also the Hornets won at home against the Kings 96-105.

For me little surprising loss for the Rockets at home against the Jazz 103-91.

Close match was played in Oklahoma. The Clippers with strong finish managed to win 100-98. Cris Paul with game winner.

But the Lakers won in San Antonio, so the Thunder are still first in the West. Bynum with 30 rebounds

Nuggets won against weak Minnesota 113-107.

And the Trailblazers won at home against the Warriors 110-118. Crawford with 34pts.

Tips for today

Philadelphia 76ers vs Toronto Raptors

Yesterday 76ers played in New Jersey and they won. Today they're going to Toronto. The 76ers are fighting for the spot in playoff, even though they're on the seventh place Knicks and Bucks are behind them. These three teams will fight for playoff until last match. Bargnani for the Raptors could be missing and that's very good news for the 76ers. I think, that they will beat the Raptors today.

Atlanta Hawks vs Boston Celtics

Both teams are in a really good shape lately and their form for the playoff is at the right level. Can't say who will win, but I will bet for high scoring game 179+pts. Both have a good shooting percentage lately and managed to score a lot of points.

Utah Jazz vs Houston Rockets

Rockets recently beat both Lakers and Bulls and if they want to stay in the sixth place they should beat the Jazz. Next five games will be crucial for the Rockets today they will face Jazz, than Suns and on Sunday they  are going to visit Denver. Good news for the Rockets is that Kyle Lowry is back and after comeback he shot 5 of 6. They also improved their defense and even though the Jazz beat the Spurs (without Parker, Duncan and Ginobili) it's not going to be a winning game.

Other

The Pacers are going to Cleveland and it shouldn't be that hard to win here with the form both teams have. The Pacers play with calm and high percentage of scoring and because of that and not so good Cavs it's not going to be a problem for Indiana.

Huge game will be played in Milwaukee tonight. The Knicks are visiting after yesterday loss against the Bulls. Both teams are fighting for that last spot for the playoff and this will be the important one. As Carmelo Anthony said: "It's probably one of the biggest games of the season for us. We've got to be ready." I don't know who will win, because it's going to be a tough one. If I have to choose I would pick Bucks, but it's simply my feeling.

The Suns are going to Memphis and it's not easy to win there. The Grizzlies have a very good defense and they're not allowing much points for the visitors. That's why I think that Memphis will take this one.

Another even match will be played in New Orleans. Western Conference worst teams will play each other. Not sure again who will win, that's why I'm not betting this one. But the Hornets showing some improvements at home and I think they will prove that once again and will beat the Kings.

The OKC Thunder will host LA Clippers and they will win at home. They have to win to be still at first place ahead of San Antonio which is playing with Lakers tonight. Anyway Oklahoma will win.

Like I said San Antonio will host the Lakers tonight. Not sure if the biggest stars of the Spurs will play, but something is for sure Kobe Bryant will miss the third straight game. It's very hard to say who will win because of these things, but since San Antonio is playing at home I will choose them.

Minnesota is going to Denver and Timberwolves are not enjoying their last games. Kevin Love look exhausted to carry his team every game, so I think it's not going to be that hard for the Nuggets to beat them. 

And Portland Trailblazers should win at home against the Warriors even though start of LaMarcus Aldridge is questionable.

Tips for today

Philadelphia 76ers vs Orlando Magic

Both teams are not in a good shape lately. 76ers are struggling in the second half of their matches.  Against Raptors they have managed to score only 22 pts in the 3^rd and 4^th quarter combined. Orlando on the other side struggles inside of the team. Recent speculations about Howard and coach Van Gundy is not what Orlando need right now. That’s why I think it’s going to be a low scoring game. Tip: less than 180pts

New Orleans Hornets vs Minnesota Timberwolves

Timberwolves are without their rising star Rubio and it’s hurting them very badly. Even though NBA All star Kevin Love is trying much more than his best it’s still not enough to win. As he said himself “It’s tough to try and play Superman every night.” Even from that it sounds like he is exhausted to carry Wolves on his back only. Hornets are not the best team. But they won two of three at home. Last night they were beaten by Spurs. But Spurs are in a good shape this season and I think that Hornets will beat Minnesota today.

Other

Interesting game will be played in Indiana today. They will face Celtics. Pacers are on four-game winning streak. With Granger leading them averaging 26pts during these 4 games. On the other side Celtics lost their last 2 games. I would pick Pacers if I must but it’s not a good game to bet. Bobcats will face Hawks today and it’s going to be another loss for Bobcats. Grizzlies will face Mavericks today and it’s not going to be easy. Memphis surprisingly beat Heat yesterday. Overall even though Mavericks beat Grizzlies on Wednesday I think that tonight Dallas will lose. Bucks will host Trailblazers and they will win this one. Not sure about Suns vs Lakers. But I think that even after yesterday loss against Rockets the team from LA will win. Another team from LA will face weak Sacramento and Clippers will easily win. And the last today game is GS Warriors against Denver Nuggets. It’s a tough to decide who will win this but I have a feeling that Warriors will take this one. They are not in good mood after losing seven of eight but after coming home they will beat Nuggets.
