Idk If this is allowed or not but can we start a thread of NBA bets that you are taking for the day?

It's what the new world is. I love it. How about it fellow Pistons fans?

Just random lines out there I thought Jokic O/U 47.5 pts+rebs+asts was low and as vegas predicted was a blowout at one point and he got it in 3 quarters didn't play the 4th.

He's so good

The nba is just so hard to predict. The scoring is so volatile. I like betting the NFL. Betting the NBA for me is like playing blackjack with a continuous shuffler and 6 to 5 black jack payouts.

Still seems unreal to me, that people bet on sports, with all of the possible variables that could be present. It will always be a poor bet. Then again, folks play the lottery.

I gamble, but only in card games.

I don't care to gamble myself, but been playin the same six numbers on lotto since I turned 18. So 30 years later, I cannot stop now just in case. But, that only costs me $4 per week. As far as gambling, I only do that at family get togethers when we get a group of 8 to 12 to go on a day cruise off Cocoa, fl. Even then, I only bring $100 that I plan to lose. Regardless, I get free beers and lots of laughs with family, so it is like a night out on the town.
