🏀 NBA Season 23-24 Recap 🏀
Record: 348-241
Units Won: 50.74 💰
ROI: 8.76%
Hit Rate: 59.08%
Wasn’t really planning on doing playoff picks but these went 7-2 for +3.66u so it’s a nice addition to the regular season results. Won’t have any picks for the championship series as I
SCAMMER ALERT
In the last month it has come to my attention that Puntershub has been copying my free picks and giving them out to his premium subscribers for a $100 monthly fee.
You might ask, how do you know he is stealing your picks? Well here is the proof (screenshots
Sengun u23.5 points
BOS give up 7th fewest points in the paint, where sengun scores around 60% of his points
15 point spread with BOS off an embarrassing loss I think they come out and hopefully curb stomp HOU
Also like unders on his rebounds or PRA
🏀 NBA Regular Season Recap 🏀
Record: 341-239
Units Won: 47.08 💰
ROI: 8.26%
Hit Rate: 58.79%
This was a really fun first season of tracking my NBA picks publicly. Fell a bit short of the +50u goal but happy regardless. $100 unit bettors are up $4708.
As a data guy I am
Bane u12.5 RA
This line is the most confusing one I’ve played so far so shout out if I have missed something
Under 20/26 this season without Ja
3 of these games were vs DAL where he recorded 9, 9, 11 RA
State of Origin Game 2 Card (bet365/TAB)
$150 to anyone who likes this if we go 7-0
Collins u38.5
Carrigan o51.5
Hunt u31.5
Taulagi u26.5
Walsh u34.5
Coates u26.5
Martin u38.5
All 0.5u each
Jokic o19.5 RA on Dabble
System play but I have no confidence in the pacers keeping jokic on the court for 4 quarters.
So long as this game isn’t a blowout it will hit so tail with caution if you’re sick of blowouts ruining overs bets
Jaren Jackson Jr u30.5 PRA 1.95 odds Sportsbet
- under in 26/39 games with Bane
- draws the Aaron Gordon matchup
- 14 point spread
Way to many factors I like here not to play this
Scottie Barnes u13.5 RA 1.80 odds PointsBet
Under 14/16 since start of Jan
Poeltl, Bruce brown, Quickley should all be active so I don’t really understand this line
I’m now +100u in profit since starting this account less than a year ago. Growth has been massive, get amongst it by joining my free discord (link in bio)
Doubling down with Scottie u7.5 rebounds because these odds are too good to pass up on bet365
Rebounds since trade: 6, 2, 4, 2, 3
Major blowout potential also
CJ McCollum o8.5 RA bet365
Hit rate is 20/27 for the season. Main concern is that he is playing max 30 mins lately. Averaging 28 mins in January vs 33 rest of the season. Not overly concerned by this as he has hit 7/L8
I’d go a step further and ask why it’s so rare for cappers to provide a weekly or monthly update of their season to date.
Doing daily recaps doesn’t really mean shit if you’re posting 5 plays a day and retweeting each play after it wins/losses because it takes too fucking long
Fox o3.5 assists 1.67 odds PointsBet
Yes this bet is obviously disgusting in terms of juice but has a 17/20 hit rate at home this season including a 16 assist game vs DEN
While the odds suck I think 1.67 is higher than it should be and therefore presents value
J Holiday o4.5 rebounds 1.71 odds PB
Hit rate 32/43 for the year and 26/32 with 30 mins+, hoping IND can keep it close (Hali might play and BOS on a b2b)
Jrue has 6, 6, 6, 7 rebounds in the games this season with IND
I don’t like reb props for guards but data is hard to ignore
Coby White o9.5 RA (-125)
• Discounted line!
• 84% hit rate without Lavine (avg 11.5)
• 88% hit rate without Lavine on the road (avg 12.4)
• White has gone over this line in 16 of his last 20 games without Lavine (avg 11.4)
• White has gone over this line in 9 of his last
Jarrett Allen u17.5 points 1.80 TAB
This is a sell high spot after he dominated the bucks three times in the past week.
Averages 15.2 for the season and mobley should be back in (likely to have a mins restriction though), so it seems like a good spot to fade
Jaylen Brown u3.5 assists 1.91 odds Sportsbet
Gamelog vs IND this season
1 assists on 3 potentials
0 assists on 5 potentials
1 assist on 5 potentials
2 assists on 7 potentials (Tatum didn’t play)
ASG Prop
Durant o20.5 points 1.88 Sportsbet
Narrative angle again, hasn’t played in the ASG since 2019 so he’ll be keen to put on a show. Lines up alongside LeBron so I’m sure he will want to outshine him
Over 7/8 ASGs when getting more than 20 mins where the miss was 19
Coby White o9.5 RA 1.86 bet365
Firstly I see a lot of people on his points or PRA so I’m hoping I haven’t made the wrong choice here
Hit rate 16/19 without Lavine this season
Registered 13 vs PHX earlier this season with Lavine, 3 came in OT so it was tight
Vassell u22.5 points 1.80 odds TAB
Over in 3/L3 but prior to this just 1/L21
NOP present a tough matchup for him scoring 13 and 14 the two previous matchups
Trusting the long term data and difficult matchup here
Nesmith o6.5 RA 1.83 odds bet365
Averaging 34 mins in the last 8 games where he has averaged 7.5 rebounds and 3.2 assists and is over 7/8
The one miss he fouled out on 6 RA after 27 mins
Sengun u23.5 points
BOS give up 7th fewest points in the paint, where sengun scores around 60% of his points
15 point spread with BOS off an embarrassing loss I think they come out and hopefully curb stomp HOU
Also like unders on his rebounds or PRA
ANNOUNCEMENT
Hi all,
I had been posting NRL Player props on reddit for the past two seasons and had a couple of loyal followers who requested I start posting NBA player props this season.
Jokic u21.5 RA 1.76 odds
Aaron Gordon u9.5 RA 1.75 odds
Both on Sportsbet for a unit
Jokic: under 9/10 away games with Murray this season, 27/34 total games last season
AG: under 9/10 away games with Murray
Main risk is PHI on a b2b, but should split these picks at worst
NRL Player Props
Gave out these picks on reddit with the following results
Season 22 Record: 116-61 (+39.5units)
Season 23 Record: 221-149 (+45.6 units)
Season 22 & 23 record: 337-210 (+85.1 units, 62% hit rate)
These will be the majority of picks I give out this season
Cade Cunningham u23.5 points 1.95 odds TAB
Seems like a good sell-high spot here as he’s gone over this number the last 4 games on extremely efficient 3 point shooting, something that CLE should be able to defend well.
Under 3/3 vs CLE this season
Claxton u11.5 rebounds 1.83 PB (1u)
He has rebounded well of late but I’m targeting this as a matchup play
Under 7/7 vs Bam (although half of these are small mins)
Played MIA twice this season for 6 rebounds in 24 mins (Bam played 1) . Just think this number is too high.
Coby white o9.5 RA 1.90 odds bet365 0.5u
Hit rate without Lavine this season is 35/45 but has missed 4/L5. Not sure if this coincides with dosunmu starting or not as one miss he came off the bench returning from injury and two others were vs pacers who are hard to register
Kuminga o19.5 points 1.90 odds bet365
Scores 70% of his points in the paint and IND give up the most FGM in the paint.
He’s obviously in a nice run of form right now so I’m ready to jump on the train with a perfect matchup
Main concern is GSW are on a b2b
Quickley o8.5 RA
Running this back but it’s 1 higher now so the hit rate since the trade is only 3/4 where the miss was 8. Has 13 and 15 in the last two games so I really think at a minimum he’s hitting 8
Panthers vs Roosters Card
$100 to someone who likes this if this card yields more than 5u profit
0.5u Panthers ML / Roosters +24.5 1.76 odds
0.5u Panthers ML / Roosters +18.5 2.10 odds
0.5u Panthers to score 3 unanswered tries - No 2.12 odds
0.25u Brian To’o Any Time Try
Sabonis u13.5 rebounds
19/28 road hit rate
PHX give up the second fewest rebounds to centres so watch him grab 14 rebounds in the first quarter, book it
Deaaron Fox o25.5 points 1.83 Ladbrokes
Sabonis likely out, has hit 8/L9 without him. Even if he does play I think this is a decent shout given Spurs leak points to point guards. Had 42 in the previous matchup
NBA Recap 2-1
Jokic assists ✅
Jokic RA ✅
Derozan ❌
Only a small amount of profit due to staking.
Rough loss on derozan. Had 6 after 3 quarters but gets 5 in the fourth
Jokic is just a straight up MVP for the betting community no other contenders
State of Origin Game 2 Card (bet365/TAB)
$150 to anyone who likes this if we go 7-0
Collins u38.5
Carrigan o51.5
Hunt u31.5
Taulagi u26.5
Walsh u34.5
Coates u26.5
Martin u38.5
All 0.5u each
Josh Hart o12.5 RA 1.72 odds Sportsbet
Cleared 9 in a row before an off game vs ORL who are difficult to register RAs against. NYK still relatively depleted so should see 35+ mins
Paul George O 7.5 RA (+114)
collab w/
@ActuaryBetsHub
Over in 71.7% of games this year, his mins restriction looks to be done for the most part as he just played 32 mins in both legs of a B2B. Over in both games vs Nop this year who are in the bottom half of the league in both
Banchero u11.5 RA 1.77 PointsBet
MIN are the hardest team for players to register RAs against
Had just 5 RA previous matchup
Potential blowout risk
All of these factors lead me to believe this is worth betting on.
#NRLMagicRound
Multi
$200 give away if this hits to anyone who likes this post
(Never done a give away and not a fan of multis but for 1 weekend a year I think I can get into the spirit)
Derozan u9.5 RA (2u on pointsbet)
Data looks crazy
season hit rate is 26/37
Home hit rate is 15/20
With Vucevic & Lavine starting the season hit rate is 15/18, home hit rate is 10/10
Now add in Coby White this line really should be no higher than 8.5
Dillon Brooks o1.5 assists 1.86 odds bet365 (0.5u)
Can’t believe I’m playing this but I kinda wanna look like a genius if it pays off.
Potential assists without FVV this season are 6, 7 and 4 (23 mins).
TOR give up the 5th most assists in the league so willing to play 0.5u
Zion o30.5 PRA 1.83 odds bet365
Scores 78% of his points in the restricted area, SAS give up 4th most FGM in the RA
Hit rate 26/38 for the season and 13/17 on the road
Jarrett Allen u20.5 points 1.95 odds TAB
This is the highest line I’ve ever seen for my favourite NBA Player to bet on. He just had a huge game vs MIN where he had 15 FTM. I’m willing to fade him here against Claxton, a guy he has generally struggled against
Jarrett Allen u17.5 points 1.80 odds TAB
This is the third or fourth time I’ve played his unders and always will with a 17.5 line as he currently averages 15.6 and CLE are fully healthy now.
Throw in CHI giving up the fewest points in the paint I feel like this bet has value
Sabonis u22.5 RA
Under 23/35 games this season and 13/15 on the road where one of the hits was exactly 23
Really not understanding why the line is this high so just have to play it
Blowout potential also
Tobias Harris u9.5 RA 1.71 odds bet365
Hit rate is 8/11 with embiid on the road
Denver give up 6th fewest rebounds and 7th fewest assists overall
Had 9 RA in the previous matchup at home where he got 4 assists on 3 potentials
Really like his u3.5 assists for 2.20 odds also
Sabonis u21.5 RA 1.88 Sportsbet
Road hit rate 17-9
Previous match with CLE was 10 assists on 9 potentials and 9 rebounds on 18 potentials. This was a home game where he has better splits for RA. So would expect slight regression, especially on assists.
Steph Curry u9.5 RA 1.78 odds Sportsbet
Returning to this wagon as ORL are a stingy matchup for RAs (top 5 in the league overall for RAs conceded). Overall hit rate is 13/16 with draymond out of the lineup.
Sabonis u15.5 rebounds 1.74 odds Sportsbet
Fool me once, shame on you
Fool me 7 or 8 times, shame on me
This mf has made me look the fool since January but this line is just too high not to play.
Sabonis u21.5 points 1.85 odds TAB
Struggles against Bam, under 12/14 career matchups
Scores 69% of his points in the restricted area where MIA give up the fewest FGM
Scores against teams that are top 5 for fewest restricted area FGM: 17, 13, 18, 15, 17
J. Holiday o4.5 assists 1.77 odds Ladbrokes
50% of his assists come from 3P, CHI leak 3s, half of the assists they concede are from 3.
Jrue had 9A on 12 pA last matchup which is a high conversion rate but has hit 13/15 games against teams who are bottom 10 for 3s conceded
