Lakers will be playing the Kings tomorrow, I'm not sure if they'll win, but since it's a back to back game for them, I guess they'll be a little tired on their first road trip. By the way, Lakers are currently on a 4 winning streak, we might consider that momentum but it's still up to us on how we will evaluate this game.
I'm with the Sacramento Kings at this. A fully rested team against back-to-back. I saw some back-to-back wins but it ain't the Lakers.
Not that I underestimate them but that's the reality bet.
It's now sitting at -10.5 for the Kings but I won't be greedy so I will take the -9.5 only just in case they try to return from a big lead.
2/3 as well for me, I also got the Nets and then the Pacers at handicap. Only blemish is the Wizards because I took the risk as they are the underdogs against the Thunder. But as good as OKC as being inconsistent, this is one night wherein they play good at their home court.
Nice!
OKC Thunder keeps on surprising us. First, that blowout game against the Boston Celtics. Now, a win against the Washington Wizards which are known as an offensive team even without Beal or Porzingis.
As the commentators on ESPN said, this is not a year where the number 1 seed is safe yet. This might be the season where we have a lot of changes on the top-rank seeds because even the lower seeds are trying to fight back. They are not lazy to give away a win to any team.
My other bet.
Dallas Mavericks - New Orleans Pelicans - Mavs -6.5 - They will play harder and for Luka, this is one of the competitive games he is looking for.
