    That spread is looking TASTY. Young guns are running and I don't think the Nets want to play the Hawks. Moneyline and points both look like interesting bets.

    I have to admit I'm still hoping for a Rockets loss but I won't be broken up if they beat the Nets. Just get Brooklyn in the 9-10 game... Such a huge difference in the play-in when you have to win two games.

    The Cleveland at Brooklyn game is quite possibly the biggest game for the BKN pick.

    Hopefully the last win of the year. A win only helps the cause. The behind the curtain lottery is already determined (look at the GSW game footage). Hard to rig the 10th or 9th pick.

    I stay away from betting when it comes to the rockets.

    Same here….if I ever did bet on a Rockets game this would be the one. We are being disrespected as a 17 point underdog. Not a Silas fan at all, but to his credit he seems to be a better coach without the vets and we have actually been a fun, competitive team these past few games.

    It's a trap. People look at the players out for rockets and think that kyrie and KD will win by 50. Of course that could happen anyway but it's rather unlikely. They want people to take the Nets in this case.

    The odds of the Magic winning again are slim to none. They have the Cavs and Hornets, who have something to play for. The Heat might sit out their players in the final game of the season, but I think the Magic will do their best to lose that game too. So we're most likely going to be tied or sitting pretty with the 2nd best odds for the overall 1st pick.

    So now that it looks to be a 2 team race for the worst record, the odds aren't in the Rockets favor for the worst record, so I think they should beat the Nets. At least a loss going into New York against the Knicks would be better than having a win and positive momentum.

    For most of the year betting against the rockets was a good move. Atleast make some money while watching this miserable product, lol.

    Lately, betting over on JG points has been free money. They don't adjust well on PPG on shitty teams so for quite a while they were treating JG as a 15ppg scorer when in reality he was scoring over 15 for a vast majority of games.

    With the vets out it's now at 23.5 and he still hits the over lately

    I know it's contradictory but I have taken advantage of that one single player prop. Everything else I've strayed away from. The over on ppg for Jalen Green is just a gimme pick.
