Have you noticed the proliferation of first basket boosts and parlays? They are insanely profitable for the books. Please avoid them.
Oh, we can have fun tonight. I am throwing out an SGP, that I am sure will crash and burn, but is centered on the two players who dictate everything.
Every few hours someone else enters the Covid protocols. Covid and injuries are everywhere. Be careful out there!
Until the games start, let’s have some fun and build the pile!

Basketball Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
DDR and Vuc to record 50+ combined points +170 (DK)
Here we go again DK.
DDR’s prop is set to 26.5.
Vuc’s prop is set to 19.5 and the under is juiced.
Just parlay them to both go over for +266 instead if you like this. In addition, you need a lot less points. Pass on this boost.
Ja and Jokic to combine for 70+ points and assists combined +110 (DK)
Come on. Every night?
This game has a small spread and a nice total of 224.
Ja’s prop combo is set to 35.5 and the over is juiced.
Jokic’s prop combo is set to 34.5 and the over is juiced.
Again, just parlay these things instead of this combined stuff. They are expected to land in this range, but at +110, I am passing. Just parlay them to go over their prop numbers in points and assists for +1241. They would need 71 (added up, not combined) to get there. I would much rather go for this risk. In fact, I am going to bet a SGP of this game. More on that later. Pass on this boost.
LAL/PHI/TOR to all win +300 (FOX)
This should pay around +268. Ehhh, the Raptors are small one-point dogs, but the other two should play well. I am out. I am more into larger favorites parlayed together.
Embiid to score 30+ with 10+ rebounds and Philly to win +270 (Barstool)
This parlay should pay +205. This is very fair; the only issue is if the short-handed Clippers can stay in the game. I am passing, but you can fire as this price is solid and Embiid has been crushing.
Ja and Jokic to each score 25+ +175 (Barstool)
Ja’s prop is set to 27.5
Jokic’s prop is set to 26.5 and the under is juiced.
This parlay should pay +140. I am in. Small spread and completive game. Both people have been playing out of their minds. I am in.
NBA
Look, I am being very careful here as news changes rapidly and who knows with all these G-League players on every team.
Let’s Get Weird
SGP on FD
Ja Over 27.5 points/Jokic over 26.5 points/Jokic 10+ rebounds/JA over 8.5 assists/Jokic over 8.5 Assists +1428
I think this game is high scoring and we know where the scoring is coming from.
I am ready to get hurt here. We have plenty of large spreads, so a money line parlay is in order.
CHA/PHI/BOS/MIL/UTA/GSW ML Parlay +222 (DK)
