NBA Betting Wednesday

2009-04-15T07:42:00.000-07:00

A host of NBA Betting games today with the Phoenix Suns hosting the Golden State Warriors our best bet of the day. Bet on the overs and the SUns to cover the line.

We'll take Minnesota to cover the 8.5 points at the line in the opening NBA betting matchup today. The Kings are just too inconsistent to bet on them with anything other than monopoly money.

Boston host Washington in what should be another blowout.

Dallas have a tough one against the Rockets. There are more than a few games that can go either way. Denver if they come to play can cause an upset at Portland while the 76ers can cause a major upset downing the Cavs on their home court. Sort of game that makes the bookies end up with everyones money so I'll be having a little something on the 76ers. Not too much, just a little, see if outsmart them.

There's no prices up yet so I think I'll try and get back later to update.

Indiana, Atlanta, Chicago........but i dont know the poiints or nothing, it's too early :(

NBA Free Picks Friday, Apr 3

2009-04-03T06:56:00.000-07:00

The NBA Finals are just around the corner so it's time to get back to tipping some winners. The action gets underway with Charlotte giving up 4.5 points at the line when they play host to the visiting Miami Heat.

We can double up on the Boston Celtics to cover the 6.5 point nba lines against the Atlanta Hawks.

The Phoenix Suns look good things to cover the 13.5 points against Sacramento while Utah should get the job done against Minnesota but have to give up 12.5 points at the line. I'd leave them alone, Sacramento have a tendency to play the game of their life every now and then.

A couple good games to watch later, Cleveland on the road against the Magic and the LA Lakers at home against the Rockets.

Friday NBA Free Picks are running a bit late today but the Utah Jazz should have little trouble in covering the 9.5 point nba lines today against the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets are backing up after yesterday's win over Portland and Utah should have the legs to run away with the game here.

The second of our free NBA picks is Milwaukee to cover the 6.5 points against the Washington Wizards.

2009-02-24T15:10:00.000-08:00

NBA Free picks 2/23

2009-02-23T17:02:00.000-08:00

NBA Free picks 2/23. Don't really like today's NBA betting games but for those who must have a bet, Utah to cover the 7.5 poins against Atlanta and Golden STate to cover the 3.5 points against the Clippers.

Free Hot NBA Picks 2/22

2009-02-22T09:34:00.000-08:00

Free Hot NBA Picks 2/22. The Houston Rockets are tipped to cover the 6.5 points at home against Charlotte and Cleveland to cover the 9.5 points against the sliding Pistons in the second of the free picks.

A few games look like easy money on paper for those who like to mix and match some nba parlay bets.

Boston at Phoenix is one of them. While the Suns have been red-hot against crap they have struggled all season against any team with limited ability. Be interesting to see how they go having turned back to the run and gun offense.

Orlando is struggling and I cant see how they are going to cover the 9.5 points against the Heat if they play their usual walk up halfcourt game.

The LA Lakers should make a mess of Minnesota.....9.5 point line should be 19.5 points.

Portland giving up 14.5 points against the hapless Clippers. Undermanned and outclassed the Trailblazers should make amends for their early season loss to the Clippers.

Saturday Free NBA Picks Feb 21

2009-02-21T14:06:00.000-08:00

Saturday Free NBA Picks Feb 21 tips off with the San Antonio Spurs looking to close out their road trip with a win over the Washington Wizards. The Spurs are giving up 7.5 points at the line while we finish with a good thing when the Golden State Warriors host the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Warriors should have little trouble in covering the 7.5 points in this clash.

Wasnt real happy with the Nuggets blowing a 12 point first quarter lead yesterday against an undermanned Chicago outfit. If i didnt know any better I would have thought Carmello had a bigger bet on the Bulls than I had on the Nuggets.

Hot NBA Picks 2/20

2009-02-20T16:44:00.000-08:00

Our Free NBA Picks have been red-hot this week picking the last 4 winners on Tuesday and then getting all 4 free picks right since then for a very nice profit. This I might just stick to two free NBA picks today with the Phoenix SUns to cover the 8.5 point line bet and the Denver Nuggets to cover the 1.5 points against the Chicago Bulls.

NBA Free Picks Thursday Feb 19

2009-02-19T16:47:00.000-08:00

NBA Free Picks Thursday Feb 19 has only the two games with the San Antonio SPurs on the road at Detroit first to tip off before the Utah Jazz entertain the Boston Celtics.

Going for the two outsiders today. The SPurs to beat the Pistons who have been very disappointing since trading Billups and the Jazz who I'm expecting to win at home against the Celtics.

nba free picks Feb 18

2009-02-18T18:31:00.000-08:00

nba free picks Feb 18 only wanted to bet on the late games today with the LA Lakers to cover the -4.5 point spread against the Golden State Warriors.

The red-hot Phoenix Suns are 8.5 point favorite in nba lines against the LA Clippers and this should be another big win for the Suns.

DIdnt enjoy the best of luck in our tips yesterday but we did finish the day with 4 winners to ensure we ended up with a profit.

Free nba picks for Feb 7

2009-02-07T16:31:00.000-08:00

Free nba picks for Feb 7, a quick recap on yesterday's bet on the Suns to cover the 10.5 point spread. Suns won the 10 points leaving us with a losing bet but the result does highlight how all sports bettors should have more than the one betting account for their sports betting. Always check what your bookies are offering, point spreads do vary as do the prices and yesterday's result shows you just how .5 point can be.

Obviously, if you think your team is going to win by plenty and the point spread isnt going to be a factor then the bigger the spread the bigger the price tends to be.

Looks to be a couple good bets today.

Houston to cover at home against Minnesota. 7.5 point spread.
Dallas to cover at home against Chicago. 7.5 point spread.
Denver -2.5 on the road at New Jersey.
Best outsider is the Toronto Raptors at Memphis,

Free NBA Picks Feb 6

2009-02-05T05:38:00.000-08:00

Pacers v 76ers
Lakers v Celtics
Dallas v Utah

Looks a simple case of bet big on the home teams to cover the nba line bets today.

nba picks 1/14

2009-01-14T05:13:00.000-08:00

nba picks 1/14 the action tips off with Portland away to the 76ers. Portland only giving up 1.5 points at the line bet. Good enough for me to unload on the Trailblazers here. Good to see Detroit shaving points yesterday and walking off the court with a loss. FR'ken cocksuckers. This whole thing is rigged, Sportsbetting is a $100 billion industry and nobody can convince me its honest. It's just a matter of trying to outsmart them more often than them outsmarting the gamblers.

Madness?? Remember at the start of the season, the LA Lakers demolished everyone? They dont demolish anyone now and when they win its not very often that they cover the line.

Anyway, onto today's action.

Portland v 76ers
Chicago v Toronto
Detroit v Indiana

Miami v Milwaukee
Utah v Oklahoma

NBA hot picks 1/8

2009-01-08T05:10:00.000-08:00

NBA hot picks 1/8 just the two games on today and I'm going to suggest you unload on the unders and overs in the Dallas v New York Knicks game before the bookies work out what's happening.

The total for this game is 208.5 and I don't think that is a big enough number. Should be 224.5 and even then it's in danger of not being high enough. Just the one bet today so make it a good one.

I've been away because i've been as sick as a fucken dog. Havent been able to do nothing for 5 minutes without having to lay down for a little nap. Not fucken good. Anyway, we're back to win some more money.

Not touching Boston and Lakers today.

Good luck.

nba betting 12/26

2008-12-26T05:39:00.000-08:00

There are 10 big NBA betting games today 12/26 for us to sink our teeth into and after the last week we're all cashed up to hit the bookies hard. I hope you guys follwing my tips are winning money, i'd be disappointed if you haven't won $1000 in the last week with the free nba picks i've been giving you. There hasn't been too many f'ken losers.

Let's get into it, the action tips off today with Miami a 5.5 point favorite at home against Chicago. Home court advantage should see us start with an early winner.

Chicago v Miami
Charlotte v New Jersey
Minnesota v New York
Oklahoma v Detroit
Houston v New Orleans
Indiana v Memphis
Dallas v Utah
Philadelphia v Denver
Toronto v Sacramento
Boston v Golden State

There's a couple there i really like. Unfortunately, the prices aren't up on a few of these so, if the point spread is too big then leave it alone. I dont like those 15 point spreads, they've cost me a few bucks already this season and i'm not having anymore to do with them. I suggest you leave them alone too.

Best NBA Bet: New Jersey to cover the 4.5 point spread against Charlotte. They are kidding themselves, the line should be 12 points minimum here.

Best NBA double: Denver to cover the 6.5 points and Utah to cover against Dallas. Don't know what the point spread is here, it's not up at the time of writing. If its 5.5 points or more then leave it alone. It should be 2.5 points with the way Dallas play on the road this season.

Today's lucky longshot: Sacramento at home against the Raptors. Toronto has been losing these these games that they should win. I'll be betting on the tradition to continue in this one.

NBA Betting Xmas Day

2008-12-23T16:24:00.000-08:00

Unfortunately I've got here a bit too late to bet on the Nets and the Rockets today. I'm not happy they were both over the odds in their matchups. Let's hope I saved money (they are both up in the 1st quarter).

76ers at Boston (point spread)
Golden State at Miami
Chicago at Detroit
Utah at Milwaukee
Lakers at New Orleans
Minnesota at San Antonio
Memphis at Dallas
Denver at Portland

76ers have a 13.5 point start, I think I will take that against Boston. Well worth the "risk" although the money has come for the overs in the points total. We'll find out soon enough.

Best nba Bet: Lakers at New Orleans, Have had them covered the last few times they have met with Kobe a class above.
Best nba longshot:Denver at Portland. Beat em last night, I'm betting on back to back wins for the Nuggets.
Best nba double: Milwaukee to cover against Utah and Dallas to blow away Memphis.

Saturday's nba basketball picks 12/20

2008-12-20T16:56:00.000-08:00

Running late with Saturday's nba basketball picks. New Jersey continue to impress yesterday with Devon Harris showing Mark Cuban he made a very, very bad decision trading him away for Jason Kidd. We just made a profit yesterday, nothing worth talking about it basically paid for a can of coke...coulda been better with one or two results going our way but if you look at the picks and you followed the games you can work out how unlucky we were on your own.

Today's best nba bet: Houston to cover the 5.5 point spread against Minnesota
Best double: Milwaukee and Phoenix
Best Longshot; Chicago

Miami v New Jersey
Sacramento v New Orleans
Houston v Minnesota
LA Clippers v Milwaukee

Friday NBA Basketball Betting

2008-12-19T15:38:00.001-08:00

Indiana Pacers at home giving up 3.5 points against the LA Clippers is today's best NBA bet. (only 2.5 points with Betus.com but then the 2.16 for 3.5 points was better value than the 1.91 on offer)

For some reason the LA Clippers are the favorite with bookmakers in NBA lines betting. Total madness, I couldnt get the old credit card out quick enough.

Clippers v Indiana
Philadelphia v Washington
Milwaukee v New York
Chicago v Boston
Golden State v Atlanta
Dallas v New Jersey
Toronto v Oklahoma
Charlotte v Memphis
Utah v Detroit
LA Lakers v Miami

NBA Betting 12/18

2008-12-18T17:03:00.000-08:00

Busy time of year I havent even been able to do any nba basketball betting but I have got some action today. The first nba betting game to tip off is the Orlando Magic (19-6) hosting the San Antonio Spurs. The Magic are giving up 2.5 points, good enough for me with home court advantage.

The second of our free nba picks is the Portland Trailblazers to cover the point spread against the Phoenix Suns. Portland is giving up 4.5 points but should also get the job done on their home court.

NBA betting Friday 12/12

2008-12-12T15:19:00.000-08:00

NBA betting Friday 12/12 has some terrific lines betting matchups with the Cleveland Cavaliers hosting the Philadelphia 76ers in our first Free NBA picks matchup. The red-hot Cavs a short priced favorite to demlish the 76ers.

76ers v Cleveland
Atlanta v Miami
Toronto v New Jersey
Indiana v Detroit
Chicago v Memphis
New Orleans v Boston
San Antonio v Minnesota
Orlando v Phoenix
LA Clippers v Portland
Houston v Golden State
Sacramento v LA Lakers

Best Bet Houston to cover the Spread.
Best Double Portland and Phoenix to cover the point spread.
Atlanta is the best of the longshots today.

NBA Lines Betting Today 12/11

2008-12-11T16:49:00.000-08:00

Just the three NBA Lines Betting games today with the action tiping off with Boston on the road at Washington. The Celtics (20-2, road 8-2) are giving up 10.5 points against the Wizards (4-15, home 3-8). I think that's too many points here for the reigning champs to be giving up.

The Dallas Mavericks (11-9, home 5-5) are 13.5 point favorite against the visiting Charlotte Bobcats (7-15, road 1-7). This is a no contest and should see Dallas post a big home win covering the point spread. A rare one at that the way they have been playing on their home court this season.

The action finishes with Portland (15-8, road 8-7) at Utah (14-9, home 9-3). The Jazz are traditionally a good bet at home more often than not and Let's hope they do the right thing today, i need the money after the Lakers "did their thing" again yesterday.

NBA Lines Betting Wednesday 12/10

2008-12-10T14:36:00.000-08:00

NBA Lines Betting isn't much fun when you have days like yesterday. Detroit and Portland going down cost me more than a few bucks and both had the games in the bag.
No surprise to see the Lakers go down either, they seem to be the bookies best friend this season. Anyway, on to today's Free NBA picks.

Indiana v Toronto
New York v New Jersey
Memphis v Oklahoma
Cleveland v Philadelphia
Charlotte v New Orleans
Atlanta v San Antonio
Minnesota v Denver
Milwaukee v Golden State

A litle late with Saturday's nba betting tips.only the two games left the Phoenix Suns giving up 7.5 points against the Jazz and the Denver Nuggets giving up 4.5 points against the Sacramento Kings.

The Suns and the Nuggets to cover the spread.

Any of you sports bettors notice how the LA Lakers seem to give it to the sports bettors right up the old you know what. Always tread wearily when betting on them to cover the spread they seem to be the bookmakers favorite friend. Getting outscored 32-19 in the last quarter yesterday against a team 2-10, wtf do you call that?

NBA basketball betting Friday 12/5

2008-12-05T14:26:00.000-08:00

A big day of Friday NBA basketball betting tips off with the LA Lakers on the road at Washington. The 15-2 Lakers look a good bet to get everyone off on a winning start this weekend against the 3-13 Wizards.

LA Lakers v Washington Wizards
Oklahoma City Thunder v Orlando Magic
Minnesota Timberwolves v New Jersey Nets
New York Knicks v Atlanta Hawks
Indiana Pacers v Cleveland Cavaliers
Philadelphia 76ers v Detroit Pistons
Portland Trailblazers v Boston Celtics
LA Clippers v Memphis Grizzlies
Golden State Warriors v Houston Rockets
Charlotte Bobcats v Milwaukee Bucks
Toronto Raptors v Utah Jazz

Looks like some easy money to be made with nba lines betting with a some red-hot picks and a couple of 50-50 games we should avoid betting on.

The Lakers, Orlando, New Jersey, Atlanta Hawks and Cleveland all look the standouts to win convincingly and cover the spread.

Best free nba pick bet is the Hawks t cover the spread.
Best double bet for multi sports bettors is Orlando and New Jersey to cover the points.

FREE NBA Hot Picks for Sunday 11/30

2008-11-30T00:12:00.001-08:00

Before we give out our FREE NBA Hot Picks for Sunday 11/30 I thought we'd give an update on the hot pick stats after getting another 8 out of 11 right on Saturday NBA basketball betting. Not too many "experts" would have gave you both Atlanta and LA Clippers, and I'm presuming they would have all given you Boston and Utah to cover the spread as I did.

11/3 in the tipping stakes heading into Friday's Free NBA Tips.
8/11 on Friday
8/11 on Saturday

That makes it 27 winners and 9 losers from our last 36 picks. I need to get myself one of them donate to me paypal buttons on this site.

Just the five games on Sunday with the NBA betting action getting underway in the afternoon when Portland are on the road against Detroit.

Portland v Detroit
Chicago v Philadelphia
Houston v Denver
New Jersey v Phoenix
Toronto v La Lakers

New Jersey may be the team that upsets the sports bettors in these five games. They have improved from last season and if the Suns go in short-handed again then they can drop their second home game in as many outings.

Saturday NBA betting 11/29

2008-11-29T15:54:00.000-08:00

Saturday NBA betting 11/29 tips off with the Atlanta Hawks on the road against the Washington Wizards.

Lakers cost me plenty yesterday.

Atlanta v Washington
Boston v Charlotte
Indiana v Orlando

Free NBA picks

2008-11-28T07:23:00.000-08:00

Lets do some updating. 11-3 on the Free NBA picks in the last couple of days. I'm too lazy to go check back what the spread was in every game, I didn't even put them down for a cpl but it looks like we were going at around 50% so as usual, you're not losing money follwoing my picks.

11 right and three wrong since i said i'll keep track. That's not too bad.

Busy day on Friday so lets get into it already.

Atlanta v Toronto
Golden State v Cleveland
Philadelphia v Boston
Miami v Phoenix
Milwaukee v Detroit
Charlotte v Indiana
Minnesota v Oklahoma City
Sacramento v Utah
New Orleans v Portland
Dallas v Lakers

Looks like a day for all the home teams to win and win easily.

Cleveland and Lakers are the best double, to cover the spread with both teams giving up 11.5 points. Oklahoma City is our team in black figures today, Minnesota is an average lineup and despite OC being a very poor side they look like they will crack it for a rare win here.

Boston giving up 8.5 points is the best bet of the day, closely followed by the Phoenix Suns who give up 8.5 point start against the Miami Heat.

You can bet with confidence today. Good luck.

NBA betting today

2008-11-27T16:45:00.000-08:00

NBA betting today features only the two games with the Orlando Magic a 3.5 point favorite to beat the Washington Wizards. Don't expect them to find this too difficult a task in covering the nba betting line despite the fact the Wiards won their second game of the season last time out.

The second matchup pits the Denver Nuggets at home to the New Orleans Hornetts. Nuggets have been on a bit of a roll since Chauncey Billups has arrived and home court advantage should see them through here.

Tuesday's NBA Picks

NBA Betting on LA Lakers v Phoenix Suns

2008-11-20T18:23:00.000-08:00

NBA Betting on LA Lakers v Phoenix Suns is th eonly action for tonight as we head towards weekend. We hit back hard with our two hot nba picks both winning on Wednesday night and we can add to our profits taking the Lakers to cover the 5.5 point spread here against the Suns.

The Lakers let us down against the Bulls, in every aspect, I had an NBA bet going that featured the total score and points spread, lakers to cover and points under the 197.5 total.

What happend yesterday in the Portland v Bulls game was what I expected in the Lakers v Bulls game. Unfortunately, they had a practice session for the allstar game in the first half and the margin was blown out the water. The final points score also took it up the you know what just to top off a frustrating day.

Hopefully the "right money" is on the Lakers to cover the spread and we can all get paid today.

Hot NBA Picks Wed 11/18

2008-11-19T17:49:00.000-08:00

Our Hot NBA Picks took it up the you know what yesterday in another display that makes that statement about "one rogue ref" by NBA commissioner David Stern look like he had his hands in his pants when he was making it.

We will try to get some of our lost money back today with the Utah Jazz picked to cover the 10.5 points spread when they host the Milwaukee Bucks.

The second nba betting lines to bet on for nba sports betting fans is the Portland Trailblazers to cover the 6.5 point handicap against the Chicago Bulls.

NBA Betting Tuesday

2008-11-18T18:02:00.001-08:00

Running and late and that isnt a bad thing looking at a few of the current scores. O.k Lets get straight into the hot nba picks, the Denver Nuggets to cover the 9.5 points in their home game against the Bucks. The LA Lakers to cover the 13.5 points against the Chicago Bulls, while the final NBA hot pick today is the Golden State Warriors to beat the Portland Trailblazers.

Monday Nights Hot NBA Picks

2008-11-17T15:41:00.000-08:00

Three NBA betting games on today and it looks a simple case of the more you bet, the more you will get back on the Houston Rockets who give up 8.5 points against the Oklahoma City Thumder in the first of Monday Nights Hot NBA Picks.

Homecourt specialists the Utah Jazz host the Phoenix Suns in the second match up with the Jazz needing to cover a 1.5 point spread. You'd expect that shouldn't be a problem with their record at home.

NBA lines betting action today finishes with the LA Clippers hosting the San Antonio Spurs. I don't really rate the Spurs but the Clippers are 1-8 and starting in the red. I'll take the black figures offered on the Spurs (4-5).

NBA Sunday Betting Lines

2008-11-16T17:20:00.000-08:00

NBA Sunday Betting Lines have the Sacramento Kings a 2.5 point favorite against the San Antonio Spurs. Fortunately the best bet of the day is the last nba game on Sunday to enable us to get our sports bet on after a busy day out with the family.

NBA Friday Free Picks

2008-11-14T17:14:00.000-08:00

Runing late with today's Free NBA Hot Picks. Just the last four games of the day left to place our sport bets on and they look straight down the line too starting with the Houston Rockets to cover the 6.5 points against the San Antonio Spurs.

The Mavericks host the Orlando Magic and are expected to cover the 1.5 points while the Phoenix Suns get their chance to bounce back to the winners list when they visit the Sacramento Kings. The Suns start a 3.5 point favorite and should get the job done despite the good home form of the Kings (4-0). Our final Free NBA Hot Pick today is the LA Lakers to cover the 9.5 points against Detroit.

Detroit is yet to really find their rhythm since the arrival of Iverson. If the Lakers can make some shots they should blow this one out early.

Best Free NBA picks are at hotnbapicks.blogspot.com

2008-11-13T22:43:00.000-08:00

Wednesday NBA Hot Betting Picks

2008-11-12T16:57:00.000-08:00

Plenty of value for NBA Sports betting fans with the Wednesday NBA Hot Betting Picks. Running a bit late so we will just be picking our tips. Just sticking with the two hot NBA picks today.

Utah to cover at Washington. -4.5
Orlando Magic to cover the point spread at Oklahoma City -7.5

NBA betting today

2008-11-11T18:28:00.000-08:00

Hot NBA picks today are the last two games with Detroit picked against Sacramento and the Golden State Warriors picked in the lightweight clash against the TWolves.

NBA betting has the Pistons 7.5 point favorite while the Warriors are giving up a 5.5 point handicap.

Online NBA Betting Odds for Sunday

2008-11-09T07:23:00.000-08:00

Online NBA Betting Odds for Sunday are very tempting on a few games. I htink I'll keep this short and sweet like yesterday when we provided 3 out of 4 winners with our tips. Portland was the only team who didn't do the right thing and cover the spread.

We start off with the Toronto Raptors on the road against the Charlotte Bobcats. Raptors to cover the 3.5 points here.

Utah Jazz to cover 4.5 points against the New York Knicks. This should be a blowout in favor of the Jazz.

Dallas to cover the 4.5 points against the Clippers. How this game only has a 4.5 point spread has me befuddled.

Atlanta to cover the 5.5 points against Oklahoma City.

Two good games today are the Pistons against Boston and LA Lakers against Houston. Both non betting games for me with all 4 teams a good chance to win. Just watch NBA Basketball action and enjoy the games as a fan with no action in these games is the best way to go. All the games are 50-50 propositions so i would stay clear of betting on them. But the choice is obviously yours.

No luck with Hot NBA Picks

2008-11-08T06:44:00.000-08:00

We had no luck with our hot nba picks yesterday. Go burned badly. I had plenty riding on the Utah Jazz to cover the 14.5 points against Oklahoma City and after leading 58-29 at halftime it was only a formality for them to cover the spread. Or so i thought.

And David Stern thinks only 1 bad ref? Bad ref,coaches,players,officials........Boozer, wtf was he doing yesterday apart from wasting perfectly good oxygen?

If that wasnt bad enough, Jason Terry hits a prayer with 1.1 seconds left on the clock to ensure we get nothing out of the day.

The beauty of NBA betting is we can do it all again today. Just the NBA picks today i need to get my butt in bed.

Magic to cover 9.5 points against the Wizards (they let me down too)
Pacers to cover 6.5 point spread against New Jersey. (How did Detroit lose that let alone not cover the spread?)
Cleveland to cover 1.5 points against the Bulls
Portland to cover 8.5 points against the TWolves.

Not having a bet on any game here so you should all bet big.

Today's NBA Betting Tips

2008-11-07T07:39:00.000-08:00

Hot NBA Picks have been red-hot the last couple days and we get the chance to make some more money today. First up we will take the Washington Wizards to post their first win of the 2008/09 NBA sports betting season.

They host the New York Knicks tonight and having led at halftime in all three games before losing this season, I think they can break the ice tonight against the Knicks and cover the 5.5 point spread without too much trouble.

Our second Free NBA pick is the Boston Celtics to cover the nba line bet against the Milwaukee Bucks. Should be a regulation win for the defending champs against the Bucks.

Detroit is another team that looks a good NBA bet when they take on the New Jersey Nets. The Nets are yet to win at home this season and the Pistons should ensure it stays that way.

The last of the NBA Pick is the Denver Nuggets. On the off chance that we have lost money then you can unload on the Nuggets to get it back. The Mavericks have lost their last two in Denver and this should be a first up win for Chauncey Billups who is set to make his debut for George Karl’s team.

Beating The Bookies

2008-11-07T00:08:00.000-08:00

My online sports betting bookie is in some serious pain after another two winners on NBA basketball betting. Granted, Portland needed a trey from down town in OT to get the job done against Houston but we deserved some luck after some of the below par shooting performances have cost us money in the last week.

I'll be back later to post Friday's Hot NBA Picks.

Thursday's NBA Betting Action

2008-11-06T05:00:00.000-08:00

Only the two games in Thursday's NBA Betting Action for our Hot NBA Picks. We had a big day with the NBA Basketball Betting yesterday with all three picks winning. Free NBA Picks that the "experts" charge you money for.

First up we have the best NBA Pick with the Orlando Magic at home against the visiting Philadelphia 76ers. The Magic to cover the spread here against the 76ers who are 0-2 on the road and back up from last night's 106-83 loss at Miami.

NBA sports bettors should be jumping out of trees to get on the Magic to make it 3 straight wins with the spread only 5.5 points. Easy money.

Game 2 tonight features the Houston Rockets on the road against the Portland Trailblazers. The Rockets misfired last time out when beaten at home by the Boston Celtics. Rather disappointing effort from my sports betting perspective, I can assure you. I'm going to stick with Portland at home to get the job done.

Portland looked set for an upset win last night, leading the Utah Jazz on their home court where I think they lost 4 games all of last season. That was a good enough showing from them to pick them here. Check out the money line odds when they are made available, I'm keen on taking the black figures there.

NBA Lines Betting Today

2008-11-05T16:54:00.000-08:00

NBA Lines Betting Today offers some great value for sports bettors with the Boston Celtics the first of our Hot NBA picks today. The Celtics take on Oklahoma City Thunder in what should be a regulation win with the NBA betting line at 9.5 points.

The Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James host the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls have played like girls in their road games this season and we are picking the Cavs to cover the 8.5 point spread here.

We finish up with the the LA Lakers as our final tip of our hot NBA picks in their matchup against the LA Clippers. The Lakers destroyed the Clippers in their season opener and the 13.5 point start wont be enough for the Clippers against the 4-0 Lakers.

NBA Election Night

2008-11-04T16:42:00.000-08:00

Just the three NBA betting games on Election night with the Phoenix Suns tipped to cover the 7.5 point spread on the road when they take on the New Jersey Nets. Sallas and San Antonio clash in Texas with the Mavericks tipped at the moneyline. Can't force myself to take the Spurs against anyone without Manu Ginobli out injured. The Houston Rockets host the reigning NBA champs Boston in the best of our Hot NBA picks.

Houston to cover the spread against the Champs. Phoenix already up 7-2 in the opening quarter so I wont be betting on that one. Now 12-5.......

Hot NBA Picks Day 5

2008-11-01T17:30:00.000-07:00

Hot NBA Picks Day 5: Haven't enjoyed the best of NBA betting luck the last two days with the teams picked doing their level best to lose us money. NBA lines betting on Day 5 of the new NBA betting season will see us go again with the La Lakers to cover the 8.5 point spread against the Nuggets.

I think I will start giving people an opportunity to get out of jail if we go down with our Hot NBA pick of the day. I was lucky enough to get my money back yesterday (with interest) after taking the Nuggets (who needed OT) to cover the spread against the Clippers and Portland to beat San Antonio in a two leg all up sports bet. Gave me some bullets for today, I already have action going on Dallas, Houston, Toronto and the Lakers to cover the spread. (not all that confident about the handicap Houston is giving up but it's too late now the bet is on.

NBA Lines Betting Tips:Day 4

2008-10-31T15:56:00.000-07:00

NBA Lines Betting Tips:Day 4 of the new NBA betting season. Late start yesterday forced me to tip the Mavericks against the Rockets with the Cavaliers already getting underway. The only other NBA betting game on was Phoenix against New Orleans and the Hornetts have done well in recent times against the Suns so I got left with the Mavs.

They had their chances, Unfortunately they simply missed too many shots. Doesnt help the bank balance though.

Free Hot NBA picks today is the Toronto Raptors to cover the 7.5 points spread agaainst Golden State.

Free NBA Picks Day 3

2008-10-30T16:12:00.001-07:00

Free NBA Picks Day 3: Just the three NBA games today to pick from for our Free Hot NBA Picks. The Cavaliers are giving up 9.5 points against the Charlotte Bobcats, the Houston Rockets get a 4.5 point starts against the Dallas Mavericks in the Texas showdown while the Phoenix Suns give up a 3.5 point start against the New Orleans Hornets.

In what is a tricky day for NBA lines betting, My Hot NBA pick on Day 3 is the Dallas Mavericks to cover the 4.5 point spread against the Houston Rockets. The Rockets were far from impressive in their season opener but managed to get the W in their 82-71 victory over Memphis on Wednesday night.

I think the fact that this is the first home game for the Mavericks under new coach Rick Carlisle should be enough for them to get the win and cover the line.

Hot NBA Picks betting wrap Day 2

2008-10-29T22:52:00.000-07:00

Hot NBA Picks betting wrap Day 2 of the NBA season saw us post our second straight winner for sports bettors with the LA Lakers coasting to their second straight win of the season demolishing the LA Clippers 117-79. This followed a 96-76 win at home against Portland last on Day 1 of the new NBA Betting season.

So far we are two-for-two with the HOT NBA Picks courtesy of taking the Lakers to cover the spread in both games.

The most notable day 2 matchups from a sports betting perspective included the Toronto Raptors showing that they will be more than competitive this season with a convincing win over the 76ers while the Milwaukee Bucks' 98-87 win over Oklahoma City showed the Thunder will struggle as expected.

You will have to check back later for your FREE NBA Tips on Day 3 of the new season.

NBA Picks Line Betting

2008-10-29T17:30:00.000-07:00

NBA Picks Line Betting on the LA Lakers has them giving up 10 points against the LA Clippers in their season opener. The Clippers are likely to be without Marcus Camby and possibly their "star recruit" Baron Davis. After the impressive start to the season yesterday with a very easy win over the Portland Trailblazers we can bet with some confidence the Lakers will make it two-for-two here.

NBA Betting Tips off - The 2008/09 NBA betting season has got underway with NBA betting odds on the LA Lakers -8.5 point favorite at the -110 ($1.91) in their matchup against the Portland Trailblazers. The Trailblazers are a +300 ($4.00) outsider at the moneyline against the Lakers -370($1.27).

With reigning league MVP Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol and the return of big man Andrew Bynum the Lakers look like agood bet here against last seasons most improved outfit. (some would argue, and with some justification that the most improved outfit was the eventual champions although I think the fact that their achievements resulted from recruiting veteran players as opposed to the Trailblazers who saw their boys become men.)

A Blazers win wouldn't surprise, although my NBA pick here is the Lakers who are destined to go one better this NBA betting season if Bynum can stay healthy. Lakers to cover the spread
