The NBA season opened yesterday with a flurry of games also taking place today. Sports gambling fans have been eagerly waiting this moment ever since July. Bodog sports gambling site features on today’s games. Currently, the site only offers the opportunity of point spread gambling. One of the most gambling opportunities on today’s schedule features the Sacramento Kings hosted by the Houston Rockets. Both teams have gone through a major overhaul over the summer. The sports gambling site has the Rockets as a -7 points favorites to win the game. This means that in order to cover the spread, Houston would have to beat Sacramento by more than 7 points.
Another intriguing game takes place in Detroit, where the Pistons will be hosting the Philadelphia 76ers in a rematch of last year’s first round playoffs series. The Pistons are -8 favorites to win the game. They have a good chance of covering the spread given the Philly is still banged up. A game that will surely draw a lot of gambling interest is the one between the Nuggets and the visiting Lakers. Kobe Bryant return to Denver always promises to be an eventful occasion. Whether Bryant and Jackson will be able to co-exist this season is anyone’s guest at this point. As a new chapter in the LA saga opens tonight, the sports gambling site has the home team as -7 favorites.
The only home team that is not favored to win according to the gambling line makers is the Memphis Grizzlies that will be hosting the Miami Heat. Both teams have made drastic changes over the summer. However, the Heat are not expected to have too much of a problem covering the spread. For those of you who are gambling on the point spread, the Heat have to win by more than 6 points for you to win the wager. | |
