NBA DAILY PROJECTIONS
BY PROFESSOR MJ
February 14th, 2017
Hello fellow NBA fans from around the world!
I was extremely pleased when I got up this morning and realized my 5 stars “amazing” bet went extremely well: the Clippers actually beat the line by 24 points!! You don’t often see an 8-point underdog winning by 16 (not only that, but they were leading by 27 after 3 quarters so they probably slowed down after that).
There are only 3 games today. As of 2:30pm, no profitable bet, but keep your eyes on the Kings-Lakers line. Here are the full projections based on my 5 statistical models:

Tip: Avoid betting this game. Watch closely the line on the Lakers until game time. |
We do have a positive ROI (Return On Investment) on the Lakers (3.1%), but we recommend avoiding placing a bet unless it goes higher than 5%. In terms of the money line, that means waiting until it goes to -126 or better (for those of you more familiar with decimal odds, I’m talking about 1.79 or more). As for the spread, you need something like Lakers -2 at +100 (decimal: 2.00) or -1.5 at -105 (decimal: 1.95).
THANK YOU very much for reading, I’ll be back tomorrow!
