OFFICIAL AROUND THE NBA: FEBRUARY 2024

[HansenYang]

Fan Duel has the Celtics as the favorites followed by the Nuggets, Bucks, Clippers, Suns and Sixers. So you're obviously not too far off from what some bookies think.

Oh, if you're really bullish on your prediction you might want to put some money on it because the Clips are paying out at +800. That means you get back 8 dollars on every 1 dollar you bet for those who don't pay attention to this sort of thing.

If you're a betting man - you ought to take the Knicks.
Not sure what their odds are right now, but I think there's a decent chance Lebron gets traded there. IF he does, that would make a huge swing in the odds... then you can hedge it a bit after the trade deadline.

They're +3500... so yeah they're paying more than three times as much as the Clips.

 

[Hoopguru]

I think the Clippers take it this year. 4 guys that can take over a game.

and their bench has been big for them all year.

 

[Whyachi]

Knicks at home are only 4 point favorites over Lakers. The game is on ABC. Those crooked referees gotta keep things close. Tune in at 5:30 to hear cascading boo's from MSG.

Looks like Lavine is going to be out 4-6 months after having foot surgery next week. Wonder what that does to his limited trade value.

Probably the deepest team in the league. Norman Powell is an after thought there and he was our 2nd option offensively on our last playoff team

Yeah an afterthought that leads their bench in minutes and scoring as well as being the fourth leading scorer on the team.

everyone knew Zach was a Bull 4 Life when they signed him to a major max contract. He was very popular, like a Haliburton from 5 years ago. Can't do anything about unfortunate injuries. The Bulls have to stick by their guy and hope he recovers.

This kinda shit is what scares me about holding onto and playing Malcolm 30+ mpg every night. Lavine's trade value just shot to 0 instantly.

 

[Natebishop3]

Sure, if you only look at stats.

OT: anyone saw the news regarding Tony Snell. He need to have a team sign him till the end of the year for the NBA 10 year veteran benefits or something like that so he can take care of his two autistic kids. C’mon NBA and NBA teams, go help this guy up.

He has made 50 million in his career. It's hard to feel sorry for a dude who has made 50 million.

D'Angelo Russell starts the Laker game firing off 4 straight bricks. LeBron and AD need to get the hell out of Los Angeles.

 

[OneSport3]

He has made 50 million in his career. It's hard to feel sorry for a dude who has made 50 million.

Especially when his wife is out here doing the 12 Birkin bag challenge on a private jet…

Lakers up 8-1 FT's through first 18 minutes. Isn't that cute

The Hall of Fame does. Basketball Forum “experts” don’t, that’s for sure.

 

[THE HCP]

Was kinda feeling the same. Tony’s a really good dude.

 

[OneSport3]

Gotta love Josh Hart

 

[MickZagger]

He has made 50 million in his career. It's hard to feel sorry for a dude who has made 50 million.

Investing just a million of that and he would’ve been set for life.

No mention of the Lakers lock down defense without Vanderbilt in the 4th quarter? Or just conspiracy theories?

 

[OneSport3]

Doc Rivers is coaching the All-Star game…

That's dumb. Should go to Bickerstaff.

 

[Natebishop3]

Doc Rivers is coaching the All-Star game…

Hilarious.

Doc's lead assistant should be Griffin.

Hartenstien looked like a fake Sabonis out there. The Lakers got lucky.

Lonnie Walker scored 20 off the bench.
Nets beat the banged up Sixers

Well luckily April 15th when the seasons ends there isn't that *LUCKY WINS* column right? No such thing as a bad win son.

The Cavs were giving Zach Collins the business all night in the paint, so Zach gave Donovan Mitchell a chicken wing elbow to the chops. Mitchell did not approve.
