Mav’s lose to Real Madrid 123-127…Wow.
Vincent Poirier had 19pts, 10rebs, 6blks. Guerschon Yabuselle added 18pts, 9rebs, 3stls and Facundo Campazzo with 20pts, 8ast, 6rebs.
Dallas looks set for a BAD season.
I actually like their top two but their supporting cast is all wrong. Too many young ones. Too many non-defender veteran role players (T Hardaway, Kleber). They are in trouble.
Another missed playoffs looks likely.
They shot themselves in the foot when they traded for Kyrie, then they doubled down on it. Beginning of the end for Luka's time in Dallas. Still, can't dump on them for losing a game where Luka played 5 minutes total and Kyrie didn't even play.
I don’t care if Luka and Kyrie didn’t play, they just lost to Euroleague team that features Gerschon Yabuselle and Vincent Poirier. They have zero NBA caliber players. That’s just embarrassing.
I didn't see the game but it seems like a pretty bad indication if DAL supporting cast after Luka and Kyrie is no better than a EuroLeague team.
Yeah, I’m betting hard on the Mavs under after their preseason showing so far. I already doubted them after their finish last year and wasn’t overly impressed with their offseason, but they’ve looked awful so far, first against Minny and now against Madrid.
What's their over/under?
I see 43.5 on DK.
Yep. I’m considering taking the under of 40.5 at +170, but I’ll probably stay cautious and just go for the 43.5.
Fanduel is 44.5 at -110 while Ceasars is 44.5 at -115. Bet365 is also 44.5 but is actually 6/5 on the under (so a pretty solid bet if you want that in that a 10 dollar bet pays 22). Always shop around on those things. Especially this early as you can come up with pretty solid odds if you shop around.
Sure, but I have free bets on DraftKings and fanatics, so that’s where I play primarily. And DK also is the only one with alternate O/U, which I do like. But I shop, because of course you should.
I mean if you have cash to spare, you could bet the under 44 5 at B365 and the over 43.5 at DK, and guarantee you win something and then hope they come in at 44 and you win both. If you are confident in the under, B365 is the place to go as it is the underdog and you get the extra win to boot.
Except that I assume its -110 for under 44.5, so betting the over at -110 at 43.5 on DK and the under 44.5 elsewhere will cause you to lose money unless it’s 44 exactly.
No idea about B365 because they don’t operate in my state, but I like to only have money in two sites so I don’t overdo it.
ah. B365 is a 6/5 on the under at 44.5. So a $10 bet pays $22. So at DK to pay $22 you'd have to bet 11.525 on the over of 43.5 or you could move the over to 44.5 and bet 10.48 to pay 22. Guaranteed payment at end of season either way. Many sites frown on that sort of betting though.
