Impressive for Bulls holding off a Bucks' comeback in the second half. It's also a different DeRozan this time compared to his poor shooting in game 1. Game 3 will be tricky for me as because of injuries to Middleton and Portis. I'll wait for updates before placing a bet on this one. I would most likely pick Bucks if they're all healthy.

I didn’t think the Bulls would be able to beat the Bucks a single game in the series so I’m surprised and impressed. They’ve struggled all year against teams over .500 so for them to beat the Bucks in the playoffs is a pretty huge sign they’re giving it their all. The real story of the night for me was the Nets losing again to Boston. They’re putting themselves at risk of being eliminated. Kyrie and KD both had horrible shooting nights, while Jalen Brown looked like the best player on the floor. I don’t know what the Nets need to do to change the trend, but I know if KD and Kyrie shoot like they did tonight there’s no way they’re beating anyone.

Agree. They need to focus on the FG improvement and free throw of there bench player. Claxton free throw is joke while Seth always missed the supposed to be the crucial score they need to get momentum. I don't expect this kind of line up will gonna go to finals. Nets is a mess if Kyrie and Durant is not doing well. There bench player is completely useless in crucial times.

Sometimes thing are different when a team is playing on the road, let's see in game 3 if the Nets would win the game. If we are going to bet on the Nets, bet on game 3 as it's a must win for them, and as history suggest, a team that is down 3-0 has no chance of coming back in the series.

I read an update on Booker's injury. He's been ruled to be out indefinitely and will most likely miss games 3 and 4. Betting odds will be much more favorable to the Suns fans until he returns. I'm not too worried since Suns still have CP3 and they have a deep bench.

Good luck though, I saw them struggle without Booker and the Pelicans are a hungrier team. Having a combo of Ingram and CJ against CP3, I think I already know where this series is going. Anyway, good luck to whatever team you have chosen to place your bet on.

What the happening to Brooklyn Nets. They seems good on the 1st then there defense and offense become weak on second half. Irving only got 10 points on the last 2 minutes of the game. I believe they already give up this game 2 to Boston and planning to even the series on there home court. It’s my first time to bet with them and it’s so frustrating to watch them on this kind of performance. Hahaha

I was just asking myself the same thing. I watched the first quarter and a little bit of the second quarter when I was at the gym and they were looking solid. I came home and tuned in again in the fourth where they just completely fell apart. Kyrie can’t just being putting up only 10 points on 4 of 13 shooting. That’s just so unlike him. They better they can win the next one and get Simmons back to help game 4.

Game of adjustments, now it's the turn of the Nets to win a game in homecourt and make the series close. They can't allow the Celtics to just run over them and sweep this series. They still have Durant and Irving, but both of them will have to work very very hard as the Celtics is giving them a hard time in defense.

Just one game at a time though, win the next game at home, then come back again to even the series. They just need to win one to get back at this series and with a confidence.
Kyrie was taken out from the equation by the Celtics in the 3rd, he even barely get touches. And then they go up against Durant, putting up a good defense as well, blocking his shots, making him very uncomfortable.

And as we have been saying, this 2 needs to play very well for them to win. Sadly, in this game, they are just good in the first two quarters. The Celtics on the other hand, rally in the second half.

Indeed, the Celtics were able to make a complete rally and win the game. Glad for the Celtics that everyone was making their contribution, this time, they don't rely only on the production of Tatum and Brown, great game for them, hopefully Nets will bounce back on their home court and will even the series after game 4.

Yeah, Irving didn't have a very good field goal percentage tonight. However, it seems to me the main reason for the Nets' defeat was Durant's terrible performance. I know Durant scored 27 points, but the problem is that he scored most of those points from the free throw line while his field goal percentage was only 23.5%, and he also made 6 turnovers. As for Simmons, Nash said there is no exact date for his return yet.

Kyrie was not playing well, maybe his body can't keep up with the intensity of the game, in the pictures I saw, he was just eating a banana because of Ramadan, that probably does not give him enough energy to compete in a physical game. Congrats to the Celtics, they are 2-0 up in the series now.

Golden State Warriors are leading the series 2-0 now. They got a similar result to the first game by the way. But it was satisfying to see Curry and Thompson playing much better in the second game. Curry was the most scorer of the game by 34 points and Thompson got 21 points. Maybe Thompson is still struggling to bring back his old times here but he is still doing fine too. For Nuggets, there was no other player than Jokic who was playing great. He got 26 points and 11 rebounds and had a good game again. This might be a much easier series than Warriors expected seemingly.

I thought Denver Nuggets can at least give the Golden State Warriors, not an easy win. They are doing great this season and the Nuggets are also one of the best teams in the NBA. It's ok being down to 0-2 but in those 2 games, they are not even close to the final score made by the Warriors.

Game 3 is their turning point. It's considered as they already lose the series if they will still lose it. It's hard to win coming from a 0-3 deficit.

They should not give the Warriors an easy win even if they will lose the series.

A short time period left for the Boston Celtics - Brooklyn Nets game to start. And this is the most waited game for tonight I assume. Because the first game of this series was really superb as there was a high level of competition. Celtics had a hard time beating their opponent. And tonight, maybe Nets might even win and equalize the series too. They are the underdogs according to bookies but they shouldn't be underestimated even a bit.

I read an update on Booker's injury. He's been ruled to be out indefinitely and will most likely miss games 3 and 4. Betting odds will be much more favorable to the Suns fans until he returns. I'm not too worried since Suns still have CP3 and they have a deep bench.

If Booker haven't got injured in the 3rd quarter then I think they could've end the game in their favor with a 2-0 standing in their series game. But yeah, another unexpected things happened although I think if Booker didn't force himself to chase Jaxson Hayes he could've avoided that injury. This could be a big problem to the Suns especially now that this series is expected to reach at least Game 5.

Note: Game 4 and Game 5 is a back to back game which will happen in New Orleans, so if Booker can't at least recover for less than a week then their team is indeed in a dangerous spot as the Pelicans will take that as an advantage.

With warriors looking better and better, and Suns losing this game, I feel like domination switched places. I am not saying that Suns will lose this series, I am sure they will win it, but they do not look like the regular season team that dominated the whole league, they look good but that's it.

On the other hand, Booker injury does mean a lot, like if Curry was out then Warriors would have lost as well, it's understandable and I can't really say how they would be like for the rest of the playoffs. East on the other hand is even more complicated with how series are looking, I hope Nets win this one so that it is 1-1 and it goes to 7 games, the more the merrier for us viewers Cheesy

For tonight's game between Boston Celtics and Brooklyn Nets, the home team is favoured to reach a victory and lead the series 2-0. But considering that the first game was a really close one, Nets might have a chance to win this time. It wouldn't be a big surprise at all so the odds seem to be really interesting to me now. I won't bet on any side but I'm favouring Nets for this game to win. Irving was already great in the first game and I believe he will maintain this effort. But Durant really needs to improve his game. In his first game, he had horrible statistics like 9/24 field goal made.

Jimmy Buttler doing everything he can for the Heat but the Hawks are catching fire in the fourth. It's now a single possession ball game and a lot of things could still happen with under 3 minutes remaining. It eould be a shame if the Heat lose this one after a commanding third quarter.

Bogdanovic is the game changer here.

....

Game's over. Huge response from Butler aftet their lead was cut down to only three.

Yeah, it was Butler in the last 3-4 minutes of the game, 40+ points in game 2, that's huge. Too much experience I would say, Butler and the rest of the Heat knows how to protect that lead and then their defense against Trae Young in that crucial minutes. Bogdanovic though continue to score in the 1:30 mark but it was too late already. And then the Heat putting the ball to their best FT shooter to seal the win for them.

I honestly didn't like how he ended up with 45 points while the rest are under 20 points. It doesn't look good for the team's overall performance but a win is still a win. I've seen them do better as a team and I expect a more balanced scoring and more ball movement from them in game 3.

That's how it goes some games. Feed the hot hand. Butler scored 7 in a row when they were only up 3 to stretch the game to 10. Dude is playing out of his mind right now, Jimmy doesn't get the credibility he deserves.

Well he has done this in the past, they even reach the finals against the Lakers in the bubble so they are more capable of winning games when Butler is doing the offensive damage. And we all know that this kind of players brings out the best of themselves in the playoffs so we might see other franchise players scoring 40 or more point to secure a win in any series. Jimmy is one of the most under rated superstar we have right now. Not flashy but very effective.

I like the way he stepped up. He is a known star before and until now but the inconsistency became a problem. It's still fresh in my memory on how performed a great battle of Finals game against Lebron James in the bubble where both of them are exhausted and running every offense of their team.
It may not be a balance scoring but there will be times it will end like this. Even Tyler Herro had his shining moments when every Heat player is having an off night. They are proving worthy to be a championship team.

As long as they've gotten the W, then it's an effective strategy. Back in the days we've seen players doing this kind of stuff, even the GOAT himself has this kind of performance an no one gets criticize. They have a lot of ball movement in this game, but we all know that they are a defense laden team and limits their opponent, just like what they did on Young, good job on Jimmy. Expecting them to win this series and yeah, it could be in 5.
