IT'S another busy night of NBA action and the team joint top of the form table lead the way.

San Antonio Spurs have lost only one of their last 10 games, and boast an impressive 50-9 record for the season so far, ahead of the visit of Detroit Pistons.

Spurs – third favourites for the NBA Championship at 19-5 (Boylesports) – are just 2-13 at Paddy Power for victory tonight and 4-11 at BetVictor to be leading at half-time and full-time against a Pistons side priced up at 11-2 at Skybet for the win.

There's plenty more NBA matches worth a flutter including Northwest leaders Oklahoma at LA Clippers and the battle of closely-match Portland and Boston.

At the Monterrey Open tennis Britain's top two are still in with a shout as Jo Konta and Heather Watson await their second-round opponents while British No.3 Naomi Broady also made it past the opening hurdle at the Kuala Lumpur Open.

There's also the likes of ice hockey and Asian Cup cricket on the go today so let's hear your tips and chat and good luck with your bets.

    NY Knicks +5.5 @ 1.86 (Bet 365) – 1.2 Points. – *LOST*

    Chicago Bulls +6.5 @ 1.80 (Bet 365) – 1.2 Points. – *LOST*

    Charlotte Hornets -12 @ 1.90 (Bet 365) – 1.1 Points. – *WON*

    I did expect to at least go 2-1, so disappointing night.

    Big card tonight though.. we move on.

    Week Totals 2-3.

    EuroCup Basketball

    Alba Berlin @ Byern Munich (19:00GMT)

    Byern (-6.5) @ 9/10 Ladbrokes – 2pts staked. ***WON***

    Zaragoza @ Trento (19:30GMT)

    Zaragoza (Money) @ 33/20 Ladbrokes – 1.5pts staked. **LOST**

    Estonian Basketball League

    Kalev @ TTU (16:30GMT)

    Over 157.5 @ 17/20 Winner – 2pts staked. ***WON***

    Danish Basketligaen

    Bakken Bears @ Naestved (17:05 GMT)

    Bakken (-5.5) @ 8/11 Skybet – 1.5pts staked. ***WON***

    I belive Naestved will be missing some players for this game but can’t find any team news yet. This spread won’t last if they’re confirmed out.

    Good luck!

    ——————

    3 from 4 on the EuroHoops. I thought Zaragoza with all their experience would’ve put up more of a fight but happy with the 3 that landed.

    Not the greatest start of march but no losses. Didn’t expect Heat/Bulls to be that high scoring with Butler out, Rose coming back from injury and specially Heat scoring a franchise record of 67.5% at shooting. Surprisingly all the favorites won and covered their spread except for the Warriors (without Curry).

    Monthly Record (W-P-L): 1-0-1

    Afternoon gents. Disappointing one last night. Parson fell short of his total by 3 with both my other fancies posted of Teletovic and Anthony both hitting their totals. Russell absolutely blitzed his total of 21.5 PR&A with 39 points alone and helped the Lakers to win. Frustration as I said Dallas were my bet of the night but waiting on player news forced me to leave a team double out. Barnes also fell short of his total by 1 shot. Close but my cigar box was empty with only Russell winning.

    Decent card tonight. Paddy Power have already realised Russell is one of the best rookies in the league now he’s getting his chance, and his PR&A are already at 25. While this still might land in Denver I’d be inclined to see if Kobe plays as he makes them a lot worse and Russell won’t be as productive.

    Bit of a busy afternoon so won’t have anything up for a while. Well done to any winners!

    Nevezis leading at HT. Not quite sure what’s going on but +14.5 seems ridiculous considering they tip-off at +7.5. I’m not sure if this is a mistake or something has happened in the game but I’m taking it with 1.5 Points Bet365.

      Was trying to find a stream to watch the game but couldn’t find one. Something was going on in the game as the spread suddenly jumped up 7 points when they were tied late in the 2nd.

    My main bet this evening is going to be Boston Celtics.

    Portlands b2b record is 3-10, and it’s their 3rd game in 4 nights.

    Gutted I missed the opening line of -4.5.. hoping money on Portland will bring it back down by later. Keep an eye on line movement.

    Any other thoughts tonight guys?

    Hornets -9.5
    Heat -3.5
    Magic +9.5

    Good luck all!

    Main bet was nice and easy! I should keep a total of the main bet, doing pretty good recently

    The fourfold for the 2nd night in a row let down by 1 pick! I thought magic would at least be able to cover ….

    Struggling to call this one so going to try the 1st Half total as both these team are very offence minded with sharp shooters.

    Posted a quad I’d put together a few days ago but posted on the soccer forum.

    I used johnbs 2 tips and added Konta and Wozniacky to win in straight sets.

    Johnbs first one came in. Konta did the honours. Wozniacky looks to be in control so just johnbs other tip to go later fingers crossed.

    18.88/1

    I will be chuffed to bits if it lands although only staked half a point on it

    Unfortunately the Celtics line is drifting further, the value has gone but I really like Celtics to win, so I’m going to risk a Money Line double.

    Boston Celtics ML
    Toronto Raptors ML

    Double @ Evens (Bet 365) – 1.5 Points.

    Good luck.

    Was waiting for news on Cousins, and it looks like he’ll be playing..

    So my 2nd bet tonight is:

    Sacramento Kings +3.5 @ 1.90 (Bet 365) – 1.2 Points.

    I don’t rate Grizzlies offensively since trading off Courtney Lee and Jeff Green, and now also without Marc Gasol… they lost against a terrible Phoenix Suns team a couple of games ago.

    Kings have a good change of winning this one outright in my opinion.

    Good luck.

    Picks for tonight (sorry no time for a write up):

    – Spurs -5.5, Raptors ML (double) @ 1/1 (Unibet) 2 pts
    – Rockets ML, Grizzlies ML (double) 23/20 (Unibet)
    – Spurs -6.5, Nuggets ML, Grizzlies ML, Celtics ML, Rockets ML, Raptors ML (6-fold) @ 7/1 (Unibet) – 0.5 pts

    I have a comment stuck in moderation, so in case it doesn’t show before tip off.. my other bet is

    Kings +3.5 @ 1.90 (Bet 365) – 1.2 Points.

    In my opinion Kings have a good chance of winning outright.

    Good luck.

    Disappointed with the tennis so far today but it’s still a good profit for the day thanks to ANETT KONTAVEIT winning 6-4 6-4 at odds of 16/5 and double stake

    Petra Martic was very poor today though and I thought that was the worst serving performance I have ever seen until Polona Hercoq just now who is absolutely shocking, she might come back but she is going to have to serve a lot better

    • Avatar of Johnb
      Johnb 9 years ago

      Sorry for Hercoq everyone, that was embarrassing, 9 service games and you get broken in 7 of them by the massively overrated Heather Watson
      I get disappointed when a player only plays to 70% of their potential but Hercoq maybe only played to about 10% of her potential
