My NBA bet last night
Orlando -5.5 Bucks -3.5 Portland -6.5 lakers win under 237.5
Betting on the NBA in the UK can be annoying because of the times the games are played. Times are scattered and most of the time games start from midnight to 3:00AM then can run till around 5:00AM. Sometimes I decide to stay up, work and keep an eye on the scores...last night was particularly annoying.
Orlando destroyed The Nicks and finished with a huge 26 point lead. The Bucks followed not long after, much closer but for the most part kept gaining a led and finished 7 points clear.
Portland faced the Boston Celtics which are quite known for having a better second half and inspiring a comebacks. By half time the Portland trail blazers lead by 17 points! By the time the second half started the Lakers had began against the Atlanta Hawks which looked odds on at the end of the first quarter to be less than 237.5.
Falling asleep and waking up
I fell asleep a the end of the third quarter in the Portland v Celtics games which was Portland leading by 13 (I needed them to win by 7 or more).
I wake up to this...
Wait... what happened to Portland's effort?
Second half Celtics, I'm not surprised the Celtics won the last 2 quarters but Portland only posting 17 points in the 4th quarter is massively frustrating consider I needed them to win by 7 or more and they win by 6.
Luckily I back doubles and trebles in the 4 fold and still make out ok.
