Yesterday was the first night of the NBA season and the first night of an epic betting adventure. Steve and I have $5 on every NBA game for the season. For week one, he is making the picks.
Tuesday, October 27th, Steve Picks
Boston over Cleveland (-4.5)
Dallas (-8) over Washington
Houston over Portland (-9.5)
LA Clippers over LA Lakers (-10.5)
Additionally, I gave Steve two prop bets for $2.50 at 8:1. He chose Shaq or Paul Pierce to make the first basket of the NBA season.
Here are the results. The final score is shown and in parentheses is the score as adjusted by the spread.
Boston 95 at Cleveland 89 (84.5): Steve wins $5
