BOSTON CELTICS came close to beating NBA title holders Golden State Warriors last week and now they're hoping to take the scalp of Eastern champs Cleveland Cavs.
The Celtics – who followed up their agonising double-overtime loss to Warriors by beating Charlotte Hornets – are 19-17 with bwin for victory.
Cleveland will again look to LeBron James to pull the strings and are 10-13 with Paddy Power while over 201.5 points pays 21-20 at Betway.
Elsewhere in the NBA tonight, two sides with an identical 9-14 record meet as Denver visit Minnesota while Houston travel to Sacramento and La Lakers host Milwaukee.
Other action on a quiet day of sport sees tennis stars team up in the International Premier League.
Good luck with your bets and let's hear your tips and chat.
Safe to say I called the Monday game well!
‘First thoughts are OBJ to shine in prime time against a bad secondary. Lamar Miller could also have a good night on the ground but those are just off the top of my head. Tempted to take over 22 Dolphins points. Weather will be good, not too much wind, not great defense’, not much pass rush. All points to a high scorer. One of those games you could pick 10 props and they all land in my opinion.’ Dolphins score 24 and OBJ goes for 153 yards with 2 TD’s. Final score 31-24 Giants.
Bet
Lamar Miller (Miami Dolphins) Over 65.5 Rushing Yards @ 10/11 @ William Hill – 2.2 points **WIN** 89 but had 69 at HT
Other likes
Lamar Miller Over 85.5 Rush + Receiving Yards @ 17/20 @ Ladbrokes – WON 89
Jarvis Landry (Miami Dolphins) Over 68.5 Receiving Yards @ 5/6 @ Paddy Power – WON 99
In my conversation with shotty I posted this for tonight but said I wasn’t on it due to the NFL. It won.
Wizards Over 91.5
Mavericks Over 100.5
Trail Blazers Over 101.5
Pays just over 7/5 @ William Hill
Haven’t updated my totals for two weeks so I’ve currently got 58 bets to go through over those two weeks…
My last update was a 33.93 points profit and I reckon its over 100 at a glance with the last two NFL weekends. That is a rough estimate but will update with 100% transparency as every bet win or lose is logged on excel. Well done to last nights winners.
Looking like another very successful season Jordan. Well done mate ?
**POSTED YESTERDAY**
Euro Basketball Fourfold
Small card with difficult match ups today, think I’ve changed my mind at least twice on all my selections, but might as well have a bash after yesterday’s success…
Gdynia (-2.5) **WON**
Darussafaka / Karsiyaka (Under 151.5) **WON**
Strasbourg (Win) **LOST**
Kolin / Pardubice (Under 155.5) **WON**
Fourfold @ 12/1 Stan James – 1pt staked.
Good luck!
—————–
“Admittedly, Strasbourgs away form is poor and was originally going with Tel Aviv on the spread. Poor card today and just went with my gutt more than anything”
Well that’s what you get for going with your gutt instead of your brain. And if it couldn’t be anymore frustrating, ‘yes you guessed it’, Tel Aviv won by double digits!
Attila, unfortunately your logic was correct. Sorry mate, I know you followed!
Instead of studying the following days card I decided to study my fourfolds from the start of the season. Of the 13 Fourfolds placed, 2 have landed….one at 48/1 and the other at 14/1. With a 1pt stake on each that would give me 51 points profit. Of those 13 fourfolds totaling 52 separate lines, 37 of those have won. The average odds of each line works out at 20/23. Had all of these lines been placed as singles with 1pt stakes, this would equated to 17.17pts profit. Adding this to to the 51pts profit from the two fourfolds landed would give a total yield of 68.17pts.
I already noticed this trend 3 weeks ago and started placing each line from the fourfold as separate singles bets but this was a worthwhile exercise to see some numbers.
I’m going to follow this strategy for a while and limit the rest of my betting. My NBA picks have been nothing short of atrocious and although I’ve not looked at my Euro Basketball bets outwith my fourfolds, I know it’s knowhere near 68pts.
So why would there be such a difference between this system and just placing singles with a given stake total? As an example I’ll use two of the most consistent tippers on this thread, Jordan & Huggy….Their method is based on risk versus reward. They will research their given game, find a bet they like, weigh-up the risk versus reward and apply a stake amount based on that. The risk versus reward is where I struggle! I have consistently put up bets which are greater odds than above Evens and will land a fair share of these but always put my lowest stake amount. Equally I’ll put up bets which are below evens and add a higher stake to this, sometimes as much as 10pts, these are the bets which I don’t have a high strike rate with and ultimately leads to big losses. Jordan and Huggy have perfected this method which takes a lot of hardwork, patience and discipline. For me, I’ve always struggled for consistency and always like to try something different to address this. It was just the other week I had a losing streak of 5 days which incurred some big losses. Switching to my fourfold method forces me to stick to level stakes and gradually build-up some consistency without the worry of knowing what stakes to apply to each bet.
I’m not sure if this helps anyone else but I feel it’s good to share views just as much as sharing a winning bet.
Well done to those with winners on the American Football & Basketball. Looks like Jordans had another good one, and I’m pretty sure there were some cracking NBA picks again.
Good luck with the rest of your day.
Great write up hunter.
Staking/money management is definitely something I’m still trying to perfect.
At the moment I’m hovering around a 60% win rate on my NBA bets, which I’m happy with, but I know that I should probably be in more profit than I am.
This is solely down to staking, and I’ve recently been trying out different methods. My old method wasn’t working, similarly to you I’d high stake my ‘confident pick’ then evenly spread any other bets. The issues I’ve had is my big stake loses, then I’m playing catch up and hoping the others come in to break even or make a small profit.
Until I perfect my method I’ve decided it’s best to evenly stake all my bets, unless I’m VERY confident about something.
Keep up the good work hunter, your Euro Basketball knowledge is invaluable here, and we’ve all profited from it.
Hunter – i love the write up. I have also struggled with getting my staking correct over the years.
So just to confirm, are you going to place every line in your 4-folds as a single as well going forward?
I’m sure we’re not the only ones, which is why I thought it was worth putting up!
Just to clarify….I will be placing a fourfold and all four selections as singles.
After a bad patch I started making small profit using this method and then decided to stop any other bets which has increased profit even more. It’s early days but if I had done this from the outset, the numbers make good reading. All going well, with profit, I will allow myself to follow whoever is in form on the NBA or NFL.
And yeh, i knew Strasbourg would lose, lol, but i still followed haha. I hate taking teams with poor away records. Wish id left it out and did the treble instead. Ah well
There’s was enough doubt there to make me want to change it to what would have been Tel Aviv :( Nevermind, but I appreciate that kind of feedback so keep doing it. Will prob all some time after posting before placing the bet.
**POSTED YESTERDAY**
My early bets follow the safe format I have been using for the past week or so. It may not get you rich quick, but it certainly keeps the bank ticking along:
Alternative Total Treble
Pistons v Clippers o194.5
Pacers v Raptors o194.5
Nuggets v Rockets o201.5
**WON**
Treble
Trail Blazers ML
Spurs -5.5
Bulls -6.5
*WON**
I may be tempted a little later depending on how Hunter’s Euro bet goes.
Well done guys… hunter great write up.
Ahyone cares i’ll put up my thoughts , i’m sure Jay will too
Cheers Huggy. When you have some time to kill, I’d be grateful to hear your thoughts mate. I’m sure there may be a few nuggets of info I can apply to my own game.
Korea KBL
Seoul Knights vs. Seoul Thunders
Under 161.5
1.86 @ Bet 365
Only 1 out of last 5 in this fixture got close to this total. At the Thunders it’s a different story and that’s probably why the total is so high. Last 5 between these two at Seoul Knights:
147
149 (AOT)
126
162
142
1pt staked and good luck if you follow.
Sorry Baggio, ive posted the opposite of your bet ;-)
The line has changed so hopefully it finishes on 160pts and we both win haha
Ha! No way. Here’s hoping for a 160!!
New Orleans Pelicans +3 @ 1.90 – 1.3 Points. – *LOST BY 1*
Clippers/Pistons Over 197
Chicago Bulls -5
Phoenix Suns +12
Pays a bit over evens. 1 point. – *WON*
It was one of those nights where I changed my mind plenty of times… but In hindsight should have trusted my initial gut and took the Miami Heat line lol.
Nevermind, didn’t lose any money thanks to the treble :)
Well done to everyone else.
Od Beckham 2 touchdowns brings in the super single.Everything else failed but Beckham made me minor profit.
Early Riser Korean & Chinese B’Ball:
10am (UK time):
– Seoul Knights vs Seoul Thunders OVER 159.5 @ $1.87 (2.5pts)
11:30am (UK time):
– Fujian +6.5 vs Shanxi @ $1.87 (2.5pts)
The Thunders are 7-3 on the over-under in their last 10, whilst the knights have finally hit some offensive form winning their last 2 straight. The last time they met they also went over the total and as this is a derby i think 40pts per quarter should be gettable.
Fujian, whilst losing their last 2 games at home actually have a good home record winning 3 straight before that. They have also beaten Shanxi 4 of the last 5 times try have met in Fujian. Shanxi have a terrible away record winning 1 from last 5 on the road and in puzzled how they are a 6 point favourite against a team just below them on the table. Taling te 3 free buckets with Fujian but i think they could even win outright.
^^ Fujian are now +7.5 – ive taken them at this
Actually just found them at +9.5 with BET365 so thats the bet :-)
Aleksandra Krunic @ 0.45
Seoul Thunders -2.5 @ 0.85
Daytime Double.
6/4
0.5pt interest bet:
Fujian v Shanxi o217 total
Shenzhen v Tianjin o216 total
Odds: 1.18
Very interesting read Hunter, will find time to add me 2 cents.
Close night yesterday … Clippers/Pistons game was very poor, Pistons did manage to get it to overtime which landed the over bet. Sixers did show up but only for the 1st half before getting blown away by the Bulls, but challenge bet landed comfortably.
Thanks to the people who pointed me out that Jazz were playing away, Spurs proved they are Champions at home (won by a huge 35 pts). The other bet I liked (Rockets/Nuggets over 209.5) came in smoothly and I’m wondering why I left it out in the end.
Oh and for those that still wonder, the Wizards suck.
Congrats to the all winners, let’s keep this running!

Haha nice one Oriaz! 1 point was the difference!
Tonight’s card looks interesting, not many games but I like a few.. Might even play them all!
mate watched it , lucky to get that close , they were 12 behind with 3 to play , never looked like getting close , so was a damn good effort…
Looks like a good enough card for a fourfold / singles today! Should have them up by 14:00GMT.
Bad night for me last night can’t believe after the start the Raptors had they didn’t even cover what I thought was a safe + handicap

Will also be placing these as singles but gonna shop around first….

Good luck!
Looks good mate – ill hava better look and let you know if i spot another doosy :-P
5pts in total yeh? 1 on the acca and 1 on each single?
Appreciate it mate. See below, a few are slightly different spreads from the fourfold.
Hunter just a quick one if you could make any combination of bets with these 4 picks into an even money bet what would you choose , trying to slowly build up my pot
Shotty, both spreads look sound, and there’s not much to say about them. I usually prefer spread over points anyway! Toss a coin between the two totals. With the Nancy game…they really need to win this by quite a margin to have much chance of qualifying, so I’d expect them to push the tempo here to score a lot of points which should suit for Ulm as well as they like to run with the pace.
With regards to Banvit / Aris, we have two solid defences and there’s a good chance they could nullify one another.
Good luck whatever whatever you do!
Appreciate it mate I’ve gone with the 2 spread bets but made it safer took Liepajas money line and Valmiera to win by 6 or more, good luck!
Looks pretty solid. Fingers crossed!

Glad u got in m8, the bookies had that one conpletely wrong! Wish id taken the moneyline, i was confident they’d win

**WON**
– Fujian +6.5 vs Shanxi @ $1.87 (2.5pts)
**Nice start to the day, 5pts profit. I also mentioned Fujian to win outright which they did (they were $5 on the moneyline!)
I wouldn’t say me and huggy have perfected it haha, but we certainly have more good days than bad! A good read though Ross! You’ve pretty much nailed it, obviously the majority of American sports bets are 50/50, but unlike scoring a goal in football which is still 50/50, its still much more difficult than say an NBA team winning by a spread. You won’t see me staking quite so high on the NBA, but I study the NFL so thoroughly that I like to think I could stake a grand on most bets and win the majority, although I wouldn’t stake a grand as that’s just madness. If you’re highly confident then higher stakes can pay off, but can also fail miserably. Research, gut and that pot luck. That’s what I put it down to!
Really not liking much in the NBA tonight. Bucks -3 or over 100 could be a go but that’s a push. I know they beat the Warriors but they’re the type of team to go lay an egg against the Lakers. Cavs -2 or their team total of 102. No Rondo for the Kings tonight (suspended) and the Rockets might be without Terrance Jones and Clint Capela. Coming off a b2b loss in Denver too with the Kings well rested. Slight leans are Rockets +2.5 or under 220. What you thinking gents?
I agree about the Bucks mate, cant trust em against Lakers after beating GSW…likely to get blown out by Kobe – massive let down spot for them i feel!
I do like the look of Rockets game U220, and was liking Celtics +2 as they’ve been good at home & Cavs have struggled to cover on the road..

Done by the OT!! Would have been under otherwise. Well done Atilla, got some money back on your Chinese BBall.
Al wakrah ( fiver inplay ) +30.5 explanation if it wins.
Only a fiver funbet..
final score 93 – 69 ( 24 point win ) , so Al wakrah +30.5 WINNER !!
obvious explanation , game won at ht , other side never really blew them away other than 1st quarter , they were always likely to rest or take on 3`s from anywhere.
doesn`t always work , but the stats showed the Al Wakrah were getting to the basket and had the chance to keep it close.
Jordan cheers for that Nfl MNF write up. I went with your Miller rushing yrds prop bet. EASY money mate.. Done and dusted by halftime…. Nice 1
busaiteen over 5.5 match goals looks worth a couple of quid , at 8/11
no 6th goal cover available at 12/5..
bugger that 4 a fiver
BUSAINTEEN OVER 5.5 MATCH GOALS AT 8/11 4 -2 AFTER 71 MINS
8/11 winner !!! ( did drift to 6/5 )
2 inplays , 2 winners..
my early thoughts are with the Cavs and the return of the `fresh prince` , Cavs need to start a run and i think tonight they`ll get it done , also i`m the opposite and thinking Bucks -3.5 looks a good bet , as long as Kobe `shoot from anywhere` Bryant has one of his days.
Avery Bradley’s overs at 16.5 look decent, not sure about the cavs D though!
Valga in the Estonian League (17:00GMT) could be worth a few bob at 13/8. They were on my shortlist to cover a +7.5 spread which dropped to +4.5. Their opponents Rapla are a good outfit but lost to a similar level of opponent in their last game. Also, Valga are at home. Think the value has gone but like I say, maybe one for loose change.
Going to try my luck with this.
Cleveland Cavaliers Over 95.5 Points
Milwaukee Bucks Over 96.5 Points
Sacramento Kings/Houston Rockets Under 230.5 Points
Just over 6/4 @ Skybet (1.53/1) – 1 point
These are all on the ML unless otherwise stated.
Minnesota Wild 60 minute betting @ 11/10 – 3 points
New York Rangers, New York Islanders @ 6/4- 2 points
Minnesota Wild, Chicago Blackhawks, New York Rangers, New York Islanders @ 11/2 – 0.5 points
Total Staked: 3.5 points
Returned: 9.3 points
Minnesota have only lost 1 of their 14 home games this season, and Canucks have failed to win in their last 4 away games, they’re also missing some defensive players while the Wild have been pretty solid at the back.
The Rangers are having an unusual dip in form right now and host the Oilers who are in great form, however with Rangers being the better team I’m backing them to bounce back. The Islanders having won their last 5 home games and their opponents the Panthers are missing a couple of key players and are struggling to score.
Look forward to seeing your NBA tips guys!
Denver Nuggets +5.5 @ 1.90 (PP) – 1.1 Points.
Minnesota’s ATS record at home is 1-11, they’ve covered 1 spread all season, and won 3 out of 12. To add to that they’ve not won a home game by more than 5 points.
Denver come into this game after an impressive win over Houston last night.
I think it’ll be a close game.
acs poli timisoara to score next goal ( 1 nil now ) at 11/8

No worries bud, glad it worked out for you. I’m sure they went 15 points up in the 3rd, to almost blow a lead like that is piss poor from them. They went into OT in their previous game but no excuse. Ah well, the other two have landed, just need the other for profit.

This total looks far too high at 147.5. Weert should score 60 at the most and Den Bosch 80. Looks great for unders. Although sorely tempted, I’m sticking to my guns with my picks for the day!
Also, Den Bosch should cover the -20.5 spread. Weert lost to Rotterdam recently by 39 and Den Bosch are better than them.
Gonna go a point on spread and under..
Bit of fun
Hunter only short term advice but why dont you stick to larger bets on the euro bb as your knowledge is absolutely awesome. A few more winners for the boys again.
Follow Jay and others on the NBA but go smaller till u get the confidence up.
At the moment its still early days but results are starting to go to form.
Take tonight nothing jumps out To me , im toning down mine after a good night the other day and backing based on team news.
Post mine in a bit
Huggy, I hear ya bud but unfortunately the numbers don’t lie. I made some good profit at the start of the season but lost a fair chunk of that with 3 separate 10 pointers in the space of 5 days. It’s frustrating because this could potentially be the 10th from 14 fourfolds that have just fallen short by one line with 2 of the 14 landing. My theory is that if I’m going to land the odd fourfold and profit from the singles then good profit will come. Having said this, it certainly might be worth increasing stakes on the singles to 2 or 3 points and stick to the 1 point on the fourfold.
With regards to the NBA, I might just do that….start off on small stakes and follow you guys for a bit.?
Hunter skyliners good 4 -14.5 ?
Not sure on this but Antwerp Giants can destroy teams on their day. Not sure what like a team they have out though.
Tonight I like the looks of:
Timberwolves v Nuggets o196.5
Celtics v Cavs o193.5
Double just shy of evens – 1pt
Add Kings v Rockets u229 for a 0.5pt treble
Cleveland Cav’s @ Boston Celtics
Over 201 @ 1.83 (Bet365) – 1.2 Points.
Might have 1 more tonight…..
Thanks for pointing out the Den Bosch and Frankfurt games Huggy. I went for 2 doubles with the Frankfurt spread coupled with Den Bosch spread and game total. Now to wait and hope…
Wonder if James Wilson will score again tonight!
Ulm way over priced at this stage of the game and Nancy could bottle it under the pressure of needing to win bid. 2/1?
*Big
Managed to get on Ulm at 17/10. Thanks Hunter!
Good man Merv??
Rushall olympic inplay over 9.5 match goals 8/13
Worth a pound in a double
Maybe st albans over 5.5 match goals

Nice one Hunter! Ended up being busy today so couldn’t follow but I think you’ve taken the right strategy! Keep it up.
Picks for today:
– Cavs -1
– Bucks -4 (have to agree with Huggy here, they’re the better team here unless Kobe shows up)
– Nuggets +6 (hey Raoul!)
– Challenge Bet 2 : Cavs/Celticc over 190.5 pts (13 returns 17)
Will also be on Mervin’ and Jordan’s totals.
Good luck to both of us!
Cheers Oriaz, just waiting for you to follow before landing another big one ;)
I like the look of your NBA picks and even more so with the regulars agreeing! Are these all the same stakes?
Haha will try and work less and follow more then :D
I’m currently keeping everything at level stakes yes.
James is averaging 29.2 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 6.1 assists at the T.D Garden.
Lebron will have to score over 25 points for the Cavs to win in view of the fact Celtic s have a good offence and a great defence. This wont be a blow-out Cavs are missing one of their elite shooters in Irving. Besides the last game Kevin Love is out of sorts and I don’t see James getting much rest throughout this game which gives him a larger chance of attaining his points total.This is all based upon my biased perspective. Gd luck.
2 bets
King James over 26.5 points 10/11
Cavs half time and full time 7/4
My last bet tonight, I’m joining you Oriaz..
Cavs -1 @ 1.90 – 1.1 Points.
It was either Cav’s or Sac -2.5.. but was wary of that spread with Rondo being suspended.
Good luck all.
They haven’t had Kyrie all season though?
That is why it wont be a blowout.Why do you have it in for every bet i place?
Every bet? Bit ott. You’d be better off not putting a write up like most of the lads as you put it on yourself sometimes with your theories mate. Just a suggestion. Just because Kyrie isn’t playing doesn’t mean it won’t be a blowout. He’s not their best shooter anyway. Love, Smith, or Shumpert on their day would be the best. Kyrie adds his skills by having probably the best dribbling ability in the league and he can get to the basket better than anyone else.
Oh relax…If James gets the points all is well .
Calm as a cucumber.
Last year Irving averaged 24.5 points per game, including scoring a then career-high 55 points on January 28 against Portland.[48] His eleven three-pointers against Portland set a Cavaliers franchise record while his 55 points were the second most points scored in Cavaliers history (behind James’ 56), and the most points scored in a home game for a Cavaliers player, as well as the most points scored in Quicken Loans Arena history. His 28 first half points also set a new career-high for points in a half.[52]
And to be honest you can’t say how much rest LeBron will get as for all we know they could be 40 points up by the 4th and he sit out for all of it. Wasn’t malicious mate. Just sounded stupid the way you said they will be without their best shooter when when they haven’t had Kyrie since the playoffs last season. He’s actually due to return in five days. Against Philly I believe.

Last year Irving averaged 24.5 points per game, including scoring a then career-high 55 points on January 28 against Portland.[48] His eleven three-pointers against Portland set a Cavaliers franchise record while his 55 points were the second most points scored in Cavaliers history (behind James’ 56), and the most points scored in a home game for a Cavaliers player, as well as the most points scored in Quicken Loans Arena history. His 28 first half points also set a new career-high for points in a half.[52]
I must have missed the part that said Kyrie Irving is Clevelands best shooter. Like I said. His ability to drive to the basket for layups is better than most in the NBA which is how he gets the majority of his points with the added foul. Yes, he can shoot, but best shooter? No. Could even argue LeBron is but I’d but Love over him.
I wanted love for overs but couldn’t trust him.
“One of their elite shooters in Irving”.What do you mean best?
Have lost track….Huggy is ur main bet Cavs -4.5?
Jordan….wot u on??
Juan,
Huggy has 3 bets (2 singles, 1 double):
– Cavs main bet -4.5 @ 6/4 – 2pts
– Bucks -7.4 @ 6/4 – 2 pts
– 1 point on the double
‘One of’.
I don’t blame you either. Especially with Shumpert back. Points will be shared out a lot more now, and when Irving is back. LeBron should get his if it remains close.
Only time will tell every1 gd luck with your bets.
I think the Cavs might be the most boring team to watch.

Can’t be as bad as Love tonight and I’ve been bigging him up hahaha
I find Love looks like he should be an NFL QB?
I’ll be surprised if the Cavs score 80 here. Snoozefest!
It’s shocking haha
They’re crediting the defence but most of the shots missed were open shots!
Huggys first bet lands.
Also took the larger spread at -4.5
89 – 77 WINNER !!
hope the bucks and bucked their ideas up
Bet down by the looks of it. Poor first half from the Cavs yet they cover by miles. #Annoying
Gonna stick 2.5 points on the Bucks -3 @ 4/5 @ Betway
Going to try my luck with this.
Cleveland Cavaliers Over 95.5 Points
Milwaukee Bucks Over 96.5 Points
Sacramento Kings/Houston Rockets Under 230.5 Points
Just over 6/4 @ Skybet (1.53/1) – 1 point **LOSE**
Cavs saved their game till the second half but still wasn’t enough. 89 total.
Unlucky Jordan.James didn’t play aggressively second half so that is a loss for me too.
I like rockets to win for the 1st half for 10/11.
They were shocking first half bud and came out storming third quarter!
Huggy if not they can buck off. Har har.
Surely beat the Lakers!?
Mate lakers are poor and bucks on their day decent enough..
Lets have a blow out so we can sit back and relax..
Might jump on this too, had overs in the Cavs game!
hence proved WHY IS NBA BASKETBALL A JOKE?
