    I thought it was really sweet and thoughtful for the Bucks and Mavericks to switch jerseys today. NBA Cares!

    Hope you hedged it with a single $300-$400 bet on the Clippers... win win situation then.

    Leonard caught an elbow from Ibaka. Hope he rest that jaw when we play them.

    I should’ve hedged. But honestly have had a good week. Hit a 3 teamer opening night with Celtics, Spurs and Kings.

    NFL is my bread and butter usually. Decided to do a fun little Christmas parlay after the scoreboard app sent me a holiday bonus play.

    Still wish I would’ve cashed out when I could’ve for $280. Decided since it was free money I’d let it roll.

    Not when they play a directionless, no-defense team.

    I may joke about the Clippers some times, but this season they look like they are going on a revenge tour.

    Kind of ignoring the obvious problem here.

    Then it'll be all the more painful when they blow us out.

    He's playing the most minutes for the Clips outside Kawhi/George...

    No, they just got over confident in themselves after destroying Portland twice in the preseason.

    The Grizzlies vs. the Hawks is like Dame vs. Curry about 7 or 8 years ago - the future of the PG position. The Hawks have done a masterful job improving their team, but I love the Grizzlies now. Except for Grayson Allen - he's like the turd in the punchbowl.

    In this scenario Young is Curry, and he's doing a good impression. He just got two crunch-time layups by sheer ballhandling wizardry. Maybe Atlanta can be forgiven slightly for having traded away Luka.
