Hello friends, welcome to my daily NBA picks round-up. You can see the picks here: https://steemit.com/nba/@prometheus21/nba-1-17-18-follow-up

First game, Boston vs Sixers went exactly as predicted, scoring wise. It was a very decisive "under", as the teams scored a combined 169 points, with Vegas putting this line at 208. As I mentioned in my last post, the fact that some players missed the game had a big impact. JJ Redick, Kyrie Irving are notable players on both teams. JJ is a good three point shooter and definitely has an impact on the 76ers scoring ability. A good takeaway for the Celtics, is just how weak they are without their star Kyrie. This is not the first game they have played this season without him, struggling to put the ball in the hoop when he is not on the floor. Just a thing to keep in mind for future picks.

Second game, Portaland vs Indiana was a huge disappointment for me. The game was pretty much tied all throughout, the Pacers led at half time and everything seemed to be going great. Then came the fourth quarter and it was a slaughter. The Pacers could not buy a shot and they scored 12, f*** 12 points in the entire quarter!!! It was a real pity the game was lost in this manner. Despite this, I believe the Pacers are still a team we can trust with our picks in the future.

Lance Stephenson had food poisoning, and we figure he was worth about 7 points alone, then the free throw shooting difference!

following your picks now, but will only bet if we agree with your analysis. We had Indiana as well, but for only 0.25% bet, but tonite betting 8.0% so 16x bigger bet against lakers.

I read your post, very nice and detailed analysis, and I agree with most of it. but I would like to stay away from Indy tonight.. That fourth quarter is still burning my eyes. Keep up the good work!

great idea to avoid Indy, wished we'd have done same. Luke played Nance more minutes than we expected, and Clarkson had career night with Alex Caruso "Robin" to his "Batman". We should have known better than to bet against an unknown like Caruso who flashed awesomeness in Summer League.

At the end of the day this is the NBA, there are many great players out there. It was very tempting betting against The Lakers, without Ball, I trap I fell myself into in their game against the Knicks.
