Hardcourt Heroes – Day 20

Hardcourt Heroes – January 1

Hi Bloggers,

 

It was a disappointing end to the month for our betting as we won 3 legs of our 4-way parlay to drop one point.

 

I suppose Charlotte had to win a game eventually but am quite surprised they were able to snap their 18 game losing streak at Chicago, one of the best defensive and hardest working teams in the league. The Bulls though looked like they were sleepwalking for most of the contest and may have started their New Year’s celebrations a bit early.

 

That serves as an important reminder that a bit of extra caution is advised when betting on games at this time of year. Though they are highly paid professionals, basketball players are human like the rest of us and not at all immune to all the distractions and temptations of the holidays!

 

The LA Clippers will surely have to lose a game eventually but we’ll backing them again today. Denver are very tough at home but the Clippers continue to look highly motivated and odds around even money are just too good to pass up on a team that’s won 17 games in a row and 6 of the last 7 head to head against Denver.

 

For the daily parlay we have a double on 2 fairly heavy favorites I have strong reason to believe will be well focused and giving their maximum effort tonight.
