ATLANTA HAWKS have surprised many with their best start to a season since 2009 and tonight they are on a revenge mission against Cleveland Cavs who thrashed them last month in a rare blip.

LeBron James and the Cavs got back on track after two straight losses by beating Charlotte earlier in the week and are 4-9 with various bookies to win tonight with the Hawks 2-1 at Sportingbet.

Another intriguing clash in tonight's busy NBA card sees Toronto Raptors try to tighten their grip on Eastern Conference top spot when they host Brooklyn Nets. Toronto's 19-6 record is the best in the Conference and they're huge favourites at 2-13 with Betfair to beat the Nets tonight, who have lost four of their last six away games and are 5-1 with Skybet to pull off a shock tonight.

There's also three NHL matches while today the likes of Ding Junhui and Shaun Murphy are among the snooker stars involved in German Masters qualifying action.

And live cricket currently taking place features Test matches between Australia and India and South Africa v West Indies as well as the ODI between Pakistan and New Zealand.

Good luck with your bets and post your sporting tips and chat here.

    Last nite thanks to OKC went 1-0.

    Locked in
    Dallas -6.5

    Thinking of
    Hawks + 5.5 and Celtics -3.5

  2. Attila 9 years ago

    10 games in NBA today, makes it harder actually to settle on the right ones.

    But at first glance I’m liking OVERS (total match points) in the Cavs/Hawks game – that might be my Nap/Ss.

    I’m also liking Celtics -3.5, Nuggets +3.0, Jazz +3.0 & Spurs -6.0 against a tired Grizzlies side.

    Will do more research and post my final game plan a couple hours before the 1st game for anyone who is interested in my tips.

    Skybet offering 8/11 to win, most 180s and highest checkout in his first round match on Thursday.
    To put it into perspective he’s 1/30 to win the match.

    Tam, if you’re referring to MVG, he is EVS in the same market with William Hill.

  7. huggybear 9 years ago

    Strayed from the normal double last night and added a third , idiot , and it cost me , called mavs and thunder right but nets let down my treble.

    my NAP is rested SPURS home to GRIZZLIES and cover -6 , might just do a bigger than usual single , but may be tempted like ATTILA said and put in the CAVS to go ova 201…

    think the +3.5 off Jazz is huge but hate betting any HEAT games , they always sting me. Same with Orlando , never seem to call them right but do think CELTICS will cover -3.5…

    i`m now at 11/14 and my only NAP im gonna suggest from all that is SPURS..

    GOOD LUCK ALL

    ATTILA , whats your final selections , still can`t believe NETS played so badly yesterday.

  10. huggybear 9 years ago

    attila , why do you double spurs with jazz , yet nap cavs total ?

    surely you`d go cavs and A.N other !!

    • Attila 9 years ago

      Huggy, cos I’m very confident of the Overs coming in in the Cavs game that’s why I’ve NAP’d it.
      Spurs should win, & so should Jazz but my confidence on these 2 is a touch less than the overs bet so I doubled them with smaller stakes for same profit as the nap.
      Good luck today mat.

  11. Dazzler 9 years ago

    Any thoughts on

    Spurs +1.5 @ 1.57
    Vancouver (*NHL money line) @ 1.57

    If PSG manage to win (currently 0-0), I’ve got these two left to come in for an acca @ 8.35

  12. tam 9 years ago

  14. Dazzler 9 years ago

    Well PSG are 1-0 down. If they lose tonight I may never bet on football again lol

  15. IVX1 9 years ago

    Attila how sure are you of the Cavs and Hawks Nap?

  16. Attila 9 years ago

    IVX1 – confident enough to put half my stake on it today. Line has just dropped to +200.5 so nit more safer (wish id waited) If your not sure, I think Spurs -3.0 and Jazz +4.0 are next best. GL mate!

  17. Anasewhiz 9 years ago

    Attic.. The NBA guru.. Wuld u advice a combo of the ff.. Ur safe 4 fold and double too give a 6 game accum… For a 50p bet

    • Attila 9 years ago

      Anasewhiz, for 50p mate its worth a hit. You could just add Cavd to Win to the 4 fold and Jazz +6.5 to make it a safe 6 fold (bit lower odds tho).

  18. IVX1 9 years ago

    Thanks Attila and best of luck I’m on your nap it looks pretty good :)

    • Attila 9 years ago

      IVX1 – no worries mate. I think it will be a shoot out between the 2. Both average over 100 points per game… Their last 3 H2H’s all been Over as well. As always, luck plays a big part with any bet but I’m fairly confident.

  19. Gotti 9 years ago

    NBA MONEYLINE TREBLE

    HOUSTON ROCKETS WIN
    CLEVELAND CAVALIERS WIN
    ORLANDO MAGIC WIN

  20. Gbjefr 9 years ago

    Where did deandre go he is nba legend ??

    • Jordan 9 years ago

      Hasn’t been on for a couple of weeks mate which is a shame.

  21. Phil 9 years ago

    Hi Attila, what does the number mean after the team (eg.Cavs 2, Hawks +4.5). Does it mean you’re putting in 2 points?

    • Attila 9 years ago

      Phil, that’s how many i think they’ll win by, the margin. Sometimes ill think a team wins by a small margin, so handicap tip is to take underdog to cover…

  22. Jordan 9 years ago

    Anybody like the Rockets outright tonight?

    • huggybear 9 years ago

      JORDAN , think there`s real value in rockets covering -2 , but i`m all over the SPURS tonight , memphis seeded 2 ain`t in as much need as the spurs and although they`ll be on a high after ending gsw win streak i think it`s a game they won`t go full tilt at it…

  23. huggybear 9 years ago

    ATTILA , i love your groupies ,from someone who`d said 2 weeks ago NBA wasn`t his thing , youv`e amassed a top cult following .

    who do you think will take mvp award and end up taking the championship ?

    GOOD LUCK AS ALWAYS , IV`E LUMPED ON THE SPURS BIGTIME , LOVE TO SEE YOU PULL A TEN FOLD , but in 5 years on nba backing i can`t say iv`e ever done it.

    here`s looking for 13 from 16 .

    AND AMAZING TIPPING TONIGHT BY MR F , A 40/1 7 FOLD , BRILLIANT !!!

    • Attila 9 years ago

      Hey Huggy, yeah, I’m happy to be getting others excited. You’ve got a decent following mate as you’re proven successful and I always respect your tips.

      I made it really clear to all that I’m new to NBA betting and I slowly eased I to it to now submitting a full game plan. To be honest, my punting forte is the Australian Football League (AFL – not soccer btw) but its off season now and I found this site & got into the soccer/footy a bit. Have found footy very hard to profit on long term and realized NBA is very similar to the AFL punting wise… 4 quarters, 180-200+ scorelines, big swings in momentum, etc so I’ve employed my game plan punting style which is how I bet on AFL. Bit like Mr Fixits strategy to get a AS to cover your total stake and a few multi’s as well.

      Good luck today mate. Think Spurs will win you a mint ;-)

  24. Anasewhiz 9 years ago

    @Attila i know am been greed but.. A treble of points games ?? Cavs over.. Which other 2 wuld u add… Thanks

  25. Scottylfc7 9 years ago

    @Attila i know am been greed but.. A treble of points games ?? Cavs over.. Which other 2 wuld u add… Thanks

    • Attila 9 years ago

      Scotty, I put $0.43 on the mad 10 fold…to return $220, lol. I don’t expect it to land, but just for fun hence the teeny stake :-)

  26. James Slater 9 years ago

    CLEVELAND CAVALIERS

    LA CLIPPERS

    DALLAS MAVERICKS

    1.01/1 @ WILLIAM HILL

  27. Gotti 9 years ago

    Jordan I’m on rockets mate Howard’s back Denver have Injurys il have some of that

  28. Attila 9 years ago

    60 points on the 1st quarter…perfect start for my Nap/Ss. These 2 sides just love scoring points against each other.

  29. huggybear 9 years ago

    Given fiver free bet so went mental …

    cavs ova 208.5
    Mavs ova 213.5
    Spurs -11.5

    20+/ 1

    No chance but passes the night away . While I’m supposed to be working

  30. Krisply 9 years ago

    To my Mavs -6.5 I’m adding Spurs -3.

    Good luck

  31. Gazza83 9 years ago

    Hi huggybear and Attila, why are you both so confident with the spurs? Grizzlies are a really tough team to beat, just like to know your thoughts? Cavs over bet looks safe by the way, great tipping!

  32. huggybear 9 years ago

    Grizzlies off back a big win wont risk injuring big players with winable games coming up , spurs threw last game ready for this and need the win more.

    may be wrong but both said cavs would go ova 194.5 , predicted 221 97% cashout now. So both called that right.

    gl with watever u choose

  33. SefK 9 years ago

    look at these foolish Heat tonight… why didnt they do the same last night.. see it ruined the treble you guys put up which i followed although i put Nets -3.5

  34. Attila 9 years ago

    Thanks Gazza. 125 points in 1st half, only 77 req’d in the 2nd half so its as good as home :-D. Love when the main bet lands straight up, then can relax with the Acca’s as no pressure.
    Cava rested their stars in their loss 2 days ago, so their big guns havnt played in about 4 days and are very fresh. Wheras Grizzlies had a BIG game last night and will be tired. Think Spurs will pull away in the 4th when fatigue sets in.

  35. Attila 9 years ago

    Jazz HAMMERING the Heat by the way…they’re due a decent win tbh

  36. sah1991 9 years ago

    I was right about the Nets last night being a trap game.

    My double of Mavericks and Oklahoma handicap came through with ease.

    I’m with Attila and huggybear with the Spurs.

    Spurs, Raptors and Blazers treble tonight for EVENS

    GL tonight lads

  37. Sam 9 years ago

    Everyone still confident of Spurs even without Tony Parker and Kawhi Leonard ?

  38. derek johnstone 9 years ago

    Well done you two guys. I had a sizeable bet on the overs nap. Thanks

  39. sah1991 9 years ago

    Sam, Tim Duncan is playing, well rested, as is Ginobilli.

    Memphis did have a tough game last night and will be drained.

    Hardly a banker like my two were last night, but I’m willing to go for them.

  40. Attila 9 years ago

    Can’t believe Nets have come out to play today while Miami not showing any interest. Needed the opposite last night, lol. Few bets looking good so far. Fingers crossed for a big win today!

  41. Attila 9 years ago

    ***WON*** with 6 mins to spare :-)

    NAP/SS: Cavs/Hawks OVER 201.5 points @ $1.92 (5 pts)

    Double & Treble both looking good still so hopefully can win some more

  42. Attila 9 years ago

    Spurs rubbish so far but am pinning my hopes on the fatigue factor in 2 half.

  43. derek johnstone 9 years ago

    Spurs getting hammered

  44. huggybear 9 years ago

    Sam… not really

    Team news is everything

  45. BelfastBeaver 9 years ago

    Can’t see past Mvg 11/4 deuce on him so here’s hoping engine in my cars packed in fingers crossed.ohhh Michael van gerwan

  46. sah1991 9 years ago

    2 results I didn’t see coming.

    Had a feeling Hawks would win this game tonight but never expected a blowout. Last 2 results show Hawks are a real team not to take lightly.

    And Spurs tonight. Down by 15, I know with the NBA anything can happen, but seems as if Grizzlies are keeping them out of touch to stop their stamina game.

  47. huggybear 9 years ago

    Good for the heart … lol

  48. Jordan 9 years ago

    Some end to this Spurs game! Gasol hits his first 3 of the season to go overtime. 8/50 in his career hahaha

  49. Jordan 9 years ago

    3rd overtime haha

  50. Alty Adam 9 years ago

    Watching this Spurs match is worth the betting money alone

  51. Gotti 9 years ago

    So much for Grizzlies being tired put another 5 on the clock we go again for the 3rd time.

  52. Gotti 9 years ago

    Danny green a man on fire.

  53. Jordan 9 years ago

    The hell does Manu think he is pulling up for a three there?

  54. Gotti 9 years ago

    Dreadfull night for me lol

  55. Gotti 9 years ago

    Can’t believe Spurs lost that thrown away so many opportunities to go 2 possessions up, not the Spurs from last year I know that and I’m never backing against the Grizzlies again haha

  56. Attila 9 years ago

    Very close match…spurs had it won but that final 3 to send into overtime screwed up the bet. I think Spurs -3.0 was a good bet still…just bit of bad luck in the end.

  57. Attila 9 years ago

    Nail biting finish here. Nuggests and clippers both up by 1. Last minute. My treble and 4 fold depending on both these…

  58. Vijay 9 years ago

    Thanks Attila – I was on your 4 fold so nice to wake up to profit! Keep up the great work. It is appreciated!

  59. David mc 9 years ago

    I had nuggets at 3.5 + and lost I thought that would count as a win because it finished a draw in the 4th quarter ?? But it came back a loss is that correct ??

  60. Attila 9 years ago

    David, that’s correct. In NBA, the result at the end of any required overtime is the result paid out on. No such thing as a draw in the NBA betting world. Sometimes it works for you, other times not. Shame it didn’t land for ya. That same game let down my Treble which would have paid about $5.50 odds.

  61. Scottylfc7 9 years ago

    Omg made a ten fold of my own out the picks u said two teams for 685 pound lol

  62. huggybear 9 years ago

    bloody typical , as posted earlier , celtics cover easily / jazz as i said was generous and proved to be / and i agreed cavs would go ova and all 3 were right.

    and where did i go ? spurs and they draw in regulation time to a 3 point buzzer buster . GUTTED !!

    anyone see the stats ? 13 from 27 at the free throw line and that cabbage tim duncan hit 5 from 15.
    get an practice free throws you arseholes….

    think i`m gonna keep my nba thoughts to myself as i dont like the thought of people following and losing money.

    good luck all , ATTILA keep up the good work.

  63. Attila 9 years ago

    Huggy, keep posting mate! You got 12 from 15 right? So anyone following should have nice profit. Can’t win em all huggybear. That buzzer buster screwed up my Double with Jazz..
    Only 4 games today, which makes me less anxious in choosing bets. I’ll post in other thread later.

  64. jizzy66 9 years ago

    Hi from Germany. Following fixi for a while. Great work and huggy, I put 10 Euro on Suns, celtics, Mavs -3,5, Utah, cavs over 196.5 and Grizzlies +4,5. WON. Thx for all your Tips guys. Greetz

  65. Anasewhiz 9 years ago

    Attila n huggybear… Thanks for the tips yestady… Did double bets..

    1st… Cavs and jazz spoilt d save 6 game accum lost !
    2nd.. Cavs rocket spurs points bet $6.2 winner !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Fewer games today.. Hope we get more winners.. 12 out of 15 @huggybear wow!!!

  66. Jordan 9 years ago

    Where has all this NBA hype came from haha, close call with the Rockets but glad to have paid off. Unlucky Attila mate you’ll remember three weeks ago we were all complaining about the NBA results this season but your research is paying off.

    • Attila 9 years ago

      Cheers Jordan. I’ve pretty much given up on A League & spending time on NBA instead…really getting into it…bit like you with your NFL ;-)

    • Jordan 9 years ago

      Quite wise mate. I still believe NFL has the most value throughout any sport in gambling, which is why I’ve got into it so much. But the love of the game is just as much hype as the winning from it.
