1-3 Tuesday BUT Kevin Durant Went for a +315 double-double so the evening netted a tiny profit.
Gotta go with something as my Knicks play my Nets, but what? After a great stretch, the Knicks can't shoot, and although the Nets have picked it up again, on the second night, no Kyrie (maybe that's a good thing), they're going to need KD to go BIG back-to-back. Taking a chance on Kings' center Richaun Holmes against the Blazers bigs (Jusuf Nurkic may be hobbled) and going back to CJ McCollum to continue his lights out shooting. He's averaging 5 made threes a game so to get a +100 for a below average game seems like a good deal.
All wagers and returns based on $10.
3-pointer: Richaun Holmes (Kings) double-double +200 (returns $30.00)
2-pointer: RJ Barrett (Knicks) Over 6.5 rebounds +105 (returns $20.50)
Free throw: CJ McCollum (Trail Blazers) over 3.5 made threes +100 (returns $20.00)
Steal: Kevin Durant (Nets) Over 7.5 rebounds -106 (returns $19.50)
Winners:
3-pointers: Kevin Durant (Nets) double-double +315 (returns $41.50) KD cam up yuge with a line of 34-9-13.
Losers:
2-pointers: Nikola Jokic (Nuggets) triple-double +250 (returns $35.00). Last night, at least, a Jokic triple-double was a good bet as he went 23-8-11. It just wasn't good enough.
Free throws: Nikola Jokic (Nuggets) over 1.5 made threes +125 (returns $22.50) Jokic hit a three early in the first quarter and then . . . nada.
Steals: Stephen Curry (Warriors) Over 6.5 assists +117 (returns $21.70) With hockey assists, Curry might have had a dozen, but for basketball assists, he only had 3.
$40 wagered (1-3), $41.50 returned.
Day 20: +$1.50
Total: -$145.85 (38-55 off 93 $10 wagers)
