NBA
Brooklyn Nets @ Toronto Raptors:
Brooklyn Nets (to win) /// 2.10
Last bet lost. Ducks were losing 0-4, but were able to make the score 4-4 at the end of the second period, but then lost the 3rd period 3-0. I've never seen that in hockey before. Well, maybe we should put a stop to NHL betting so far, as the crucial part of the NBA season is about to begin! The total score of my bets: NBA 50-57 in favor of the unsuccessful, MLB 30-27 in favor of the successful, NHL 2-3 in favor of the unsuccessful, NFL+NCAAF 3-8 in favor of the unsuccessful.
New bet: Brooklyn on the road will beat Toronto. In this game I expect to see a fully healthy Brooklyn! This means that the starting five will be optimal: Ben Simmons/Dennis Schroder, Cam Thomas, Mikal Bridges, Cameron Johnson/Dorian Finney-Smith and Nic Claxton. Toronto will also be playing with an optimal lineup, but the fact that they just gave up back-up point guard Dennis Schroder (I think Ben Simmons will play in the starting lineup, but the German may be in the starting lineup also) indicates that Toronto is not aiming for the Playoffs. Another thing is that Brooklyn is 2 wins away from the Play-in zone! Also, in the last 10 head-to-head games, Brooklyn has beaten Toronto 8 times (and Brooklyn currently has a streak of 5 straight wins). Of course, a lot will depend on motivation and goals for the rest of the regular season, but in my opinion, Brooklyn's motivation should be higher. And I like Brooklyn's bench much better. You want to bet? Sure!
