Kevin Durant blossoming into an elite player

kevin-durant-Betting basketball online fans know that ever since Kevin Durant set the Big 10 on fire during his only year at the University of Texas it was very clear that he was something special. Yet there were plenty of doubts as he entered the NBA, claims that he wasn’t strong enough, that he was one dimensional and that he shot too much. But after two years in the league Durant has silenced his critics with his play and this NBA betting season has blossomed into one of the best players in the league.

Playing in Oklahoma City he’s not nearly as visible as many other of the betting basketball online superstars but his numbers are just as good if not better than the other elite players. Read the rest of this entry »

Is Carmelo Anthony more than just a stat monster?

carmeloEveryone that loves betting basketball online knows that Carmelo Anthony can put the ball through the basket. He’s done it every year he’s been in the league and every other level of basketball before then. But as he gets off to another sizzling start to an NBA season you can’t help but wonder if he’ll ever develop into more than just a scorer.

The knock on ‘Mello has always been that he’s a one-dimensional player. He scores, but he’s streaky and if he’s not putting the ball in the hoop than he’s not giving you much. That has been the problem that coach George Karl has had to confront in the past few betting basketball online seasons.

celticsToronto Raptors, where are you?  New York, are you ever going to be good again?  Philly, is Iverson going to be the Answer?  New Jersey ….forget it.

Is there any team in the Atlantic division that can even pretend to challenge the Boston Celtics this NBA betting season?  Or will the Beantown team lock up the betting basketball online division before Christmas?

Dwyane Wade is off to a rough start

dwyane-wade-dunkingDwyane Wade is experiencing his worst start in basketball betting in years.  After being one of the greatest players in the league for several years and coming off his a season in which he won the NBA’s scoring title and was an MVP finalist, his numbers have deteriorated in the 2009-10 season. It’s not as though he’s forgotten how to play and his numbers, while noticeably off, are still among the best in the betting basketball online competition.

But anyone that has seen him play this year has noticed a big drop in production. There’s no need to panic, he’s still the same Flash, but it’s likely going to be a tough year for him until the Heat get some more scoring help for him or one of his teammates develops into a legitimate scoring option in the online basketball betting competition.

Chicago Bulls: The story so far

chicago-bulls-No betting basketball online fan in the Bulls organization, nor their fans, wanted the team to be the holders of a 7-9 record in the first week of December.  But you can’t say that the mediocre results so far in the 2009 season are completely unexpected.

You can’t simply allow your best player and heart of your offense to escape, not replace him and expect the same success in the betting basketball online competition. When Gordon left for Detroit in the online basketball betting offseason and so did the bulk of the Bulls offense.  And that’s not a good omen when the team’s biggest weakness in the bet on basketball competition was a lack of scoring.

Iverson and the Sixers part II

AllenIversonThe Philadelphia Seventy-Sixers have had enough of all the losses they have been giving their betting basketball online fans. They are seeking a plan that will change their curse into a better future on NBA betting. At the same time, Allen Iverson, former MVP, was about to quit his professional basketball player career after a series of misfortunate basketball betting situations with the Memphis Grizzlies. These two stories have collided and come together into something that might work out for both ends. Allen Iverson has signed a contract and will be playing with the Sixers one more time.

Boston terrorizing the Atlantic Division

CelticsIt’s no real surprise that the Boston Celtics are winning games.  Just a year removed from the team’s first NBA betting title in decades, the return of Kevin Garnett and the addition of Rasheed Wallace it’s no surprise at all.  But the way that it’s dominating the Atlantic division is something that even the most diehard Boston betting basketball online fanatic could not have predicted.

Heading into the online basketball betting season the Atlantic was shaping up to be a competitive field.  Philly was supposed to be improved as its young talented gained continuity.  New York couldn’t be any worse and looked like Mike D’Antoni had the team on the right track. No one though the Nets would be much of a team but 0-17, who knew?  The Raptors turned out to be a joke, at least in the early going of the season and the Knicks are mediocre at best.

The Nets just can’t figure it out

netsIt’s hard to imagine an NBA betting team losing 15 straight games.  Even the worst of teams tend to get lucky every once in awhile, but the New Jersey Nets have so far done the unthinkable and opened the 2009-10 seasons with 15 straight losses.  The team has reached such a horrific basketball betting plateau of ineptitude that it’s almost admirable.

Even the lowly T-Wolves have managed to get a notch in the win column this betting basketball online season.  But somehow the Nets just can’t find a way to get of the schnied. The team has found ever new and interesting ways to lose games this betting basketball online season.  There was even a game against the Heat that seemed as though would end in an online basketball betting win for New Jersey only have Dwyane Wade nail a 3-pointer to seal the deal at the buzzer.

Spurs in a Funk

spursBetting on basketball fans know that maybe the team’s age is finally starting to catch up with it.  Or maybe the Manu Ginobli’s injuries are taking their toll on the team.  Or you may insert any other excuse you can think of as to why the Spurs are playing so poorly this season. After some key additions in the off basketball betting season like scorer Richard Jefferson and rookie DeJuan Blair this team was expected to compete for the division title the same as it has every year for the past decade.

But the 2009 basketball betting online season has gotten off to a very slow start for the Spurs.  With a record of 5-6 though the first 11 games of the season this team is not where it wants to be or where the rest of the online basketball betting community thought it would be.

Magic defending conference title

orlando magicThe Orlando Magic fans that like betting basketball online, desperately wants another shot at the NBA Finals.  In the off season this team was active as any of the title contenders in acquiring talent and shedding players and so far in the very young betting basketball online season the team’s moves seem to be paying dividends.

In the team’s quest to get back to the NBA betting finals they picked up professional scoring machine Vince Carter.  So far Carter has yet to blow any away with his scoring but once he adjusts to the new offense and new teammates he should be just fine.  Through 8 games in Orlando uniform he’s averaging only 17 ppg (way off his career mark) less than 2 assists a game and under 4 rebounds a game –not great numbers.
