I can't believe that we already have 2 series with 7th game, utah versus denver and okc versus houston.
-
however I do not understand what is wrong with Rockets, they are normally so much better and they should have been beating the hell out of OKC because OKC was considered a team that was tanking. No joke, when they traded PG they were considered barely a playoff team with just WB and Adams left, and when they traded WB and got CP3 from it, everyone assumed that OKC would be just tanking to get some good picks, starting a rebuilding process, go check last years articles and you will see that I am right, it is a miracle that they are thus far into the season.
Yeah, and to be honest, I even expect for this series to go either (4-1) or (4-2) in favor of Houston Rockets, as they were also the one who played very well when this bubble started, right? That's why I assumed they're goin' to take over the first round. But now, some of 'em seemed a little bit off, and it is quite surprising. Well you couldn't expect everyone to play with consistency after all. Besides, Oklahoma isn't on 5th seed for no reason  Tongue.

They weren't tankimg for a better pick they were getting rid of a team that didn't work as constructed.  Houston is real hot or real cold, going to be tough for them to win multiple series.  The good teams figure out other ways to win when they aren't shooting all that hot.  I wouldn't be surprised to see them fall in round one.  Would be happy for Paul..

Good start for the Celtics and Raptors, it was a close game and I think it's going to be a low scoring game.
They'll be putting more pressure in this game because the Raptors would want to even the series, so let's enjoy the night watching this game.

VanVleet now seems to be having a great start, hopefully we will see him score his usual.



1st quarter has ended and the game is tied now at 28. By the first half scoring I'm witnessing, doesn't look like the game will go to over in total points, but they could slow down in the remaining quarter, so sit tight and enjoy watching it. Good luck to what team you are betting now.
They already tie as of this moment have both scored 82 and still have 8 minutes remaining.This game is too close but lets see on who would be the one to pull this off.
By the way i do made up some bets on Raptors *crossfingers* .

I guess let's enjoy the game 7, starting tonight with the Jazz and Nuggets, this is going to be the last game played between the tow, so let's put our bet on the last game, do or die, probably this is going under IMO.

Now I could see the Utah vs Denver series because the talent level there is almost similar and I would really understand why they are at 7th game now,
Murray and Mitchell have the talents as both players already made a history.

however I do not understand what is wrong with Rockets, they are normally so much better and they should have been beating the hell out of OKC because OKC was considered a team that was tanking.
Do they tanked during the regular season? NO... we just thought but they were doing good that's why they qualify in the playoffs.

No joke, when they traded PG they were considered barely a playoff team with just WB and Adams left, and when they traded WB and got CP3 from it, everyone assumed that OKC would be just tanking to get some good picks, starting a rebuilding process, go check last years articles and you will see that I am right, it is a miracle that they are thus far into the season.

But we were wrong, OKC with Paul's leadership is a competitive team, Paul makes his teammates involve that's he is better than WB in terms of being a teammate, no individual play for Paul.

I will agree to you that CP3 will be unstopable in the game 7. He is naturally talented and has the best shooting inside and outside the 3 pointer area.This could be the best game to watch for sure scheduled on thursday. I will not going to miss this game.
He might be unstoppable but James Harden already predicted that they'll win the NBA finals this year. No, just don't mind it.

Who knows The Beard was explosive and even Westbrook but that still by their plays and the b-ball was always round, there goes the saying.

I was actually amazed at how CP3 can handle old OKC players.
He's new there and yet he could create a lot of chemistry already.

While with the Rockets there is no question Harden and Westbrook already had the chemistry.
They are former teammates in OKC and they have known each other for a long time.
Jump at 1:48.

It will be a difficult time to decide where to bet considering both are good but, got to choose tomorrow.

This is what it should be when you got those unstoppable teams competing at each other. Expect the craziest strategies that they all gathered throughout the years of experiences playing in the Playoffs. now that they facing with not just two teams but for teams in game 7, expect the unexpected. what I mean by this is that Chris Paul might get unstoppable in the next game that will leaves Rockets their worse playoffs record after He left the team.
Pretty sure rockets will going to taste their own medicine when they traded CP3 to OKC. Now they will going to face their former teammates in a play off and the worst is that the game is the last game for best of seven series and whoever the team wins in this matcht will going to proceed with semi finals in the conference.

West can't complete the 1st round series yet, first it was Nuggets vs Jazz  went to game 7, now we have the OKC vs  Rockets.

What a wild first round, I'm very excited to watch the game 7 for Nuggets and Jazz tomorrow, may the best team wins.

The momentum now is on the Nuggets and Murray is playing really good in their past 2 games especially in Game 6 where he has 50 points with 70.8% field goal percentage and 9 3PM. That is an all star caliber performance for him and if he will continue to play like this in Game 7, there is a higher chance that they will win the series Cheesy.

Wait am I the only one who is expecting that Bucks will be exposed in Game 1 against the Heat since before they will face each other??
Giannis is exposed already and his teammates can't do well against a well balanced Heat and they took the Game 1.

In their 3 meetings in the regular games, Heat won the 2. Adebayo can defend Giannis 1 on 1 unlike the other teams where they need at least 2 to stop him. If this continues, it will be a disaster for the top seeded Bucks.

Yeah right, the series extends to do or die game 7 showdown, all coaches are now preparing for best strategies
to counter every offensive attacks.
Anyone's ball game now, we don't know who will go to the next round as all of those teams are really trying their
best to adjust and take the spot.


In a do or die game, expect that they will give everything they have to win, otherwise, they'll go home and go fishing. lol.
Nuggets vs Jazz, I thought this series was already over when Jazz take a 3-1 lead, but man, this is getting more exciting, tomorrow is a war between the two.

Denver is now the favorites, opened at +1.5, now live at -1.
People have turn their backs on the Jazz because Denver was doing great lately, they seem to figure out how to win, so I guess the line is just right.
I would do the same, Jazz was not the same Jazz when they got straight wins, one win was due to Clarkson stepping up and the other was due to Conley, haven't seen their good contribution anymore in the past two loses Nuggets slowly going back to forming a good chemistry in the court again.

Without a doubt, I'm taking the Nuggets here. No assurance they'll win but I'm pretty sure game 7 would be a close game and I like to bet on the Nuggets if that situation happens.

Which team would you bet on, team with 2 losing streak or a team with 2 winning streak?

This question can easily be answered and I know you what's the answer.

People would go with the hot streak team, NUGGETS! (all the way)

I actually put a long shot play on the nuggets winning the whole thing lol.  Yeah jazz has the edge obviously but with the way nuggets are playing right now almost at the half and up 8 they are looking good.  If it goes to a game 7 the jazz will have so much pressure on them.  With Harris back playing that is good for the nugs they were missing him in the rotation.  Fingers crossed.

Nuggets have the edge now, there's no line for game 7 yet but I believe Nuggets will be the favorites in game 7 based on the performance they showed in game 6. Congrats to them and to you wheelz1200, looks like Nuggets are going to have a successful comeback to win the series.

Denver Nuggets might look dominant in there last game against the Utah Jazz but the bookies place them in the odds where they have either +1 or 1.5 in them and I agree. Still if you look at there lineup Jazz really has a stronger lineup and what they lack right now is good synergy with each other which they can start doing during the last game. Both teams will have a do or die match tomorrow and during this kind of time the better line-up wins the game.

He was really dirty, I watched his dirty plays against Morris in the series and I can tell that all of it is intentional.
Clippers winning because they are dirty, I don't think that would give them the respect, maybe he should do that also against his brother if they'll meet in the WCF.

It is like you have not played basketball. It is all part of the game. And you cannot discount the talents of the clippers just because of one player.
