Looks like the Thunder are not giving up yet, we are in the 4th quarter now with 3 minutes left in the game.
I hope they'll win this game so they can take it back to their home court, I really love watching game 7 because it's more intense.

Why so much issues and analyzation about that missed call by LeBron but for other players it was easily forgotten. If you guys watched playoffs since the beginning there are lots of wrong calls made during the dying seconds (and some of them are worst because it's a missed calls) like I mentioned above that might lead to another result.
Move on now...
Move on now...
Yeah! Why is that? I have seen a lot of wannabe NBA analyzers about the Oladipo lay up which should have been goal tending. What the hell is happening with this people? Suddenly, they are all against Lebron?
Let it go, it is a win for the Cavs and they deserved it for the hard work. Lebron really did a big shot there. That is one hell of a player there.
Now, Bucks and Celtics. Woohh! Game 7. It will be a hard fight. I am rooting for the Bucks here even if the Celtics are at home.
So against these Celtics they are a crunch time team and can make a comeback anytime.
Although they had Kyrie Irving in that game.
But he wasn't playing in the last quarter for some reason.Never count Boston out of a game or they will wreak you.
I had them on a large parlay betslip and lost alot of bitcoin because I underestimated them in getting beat that one game which cost me the entire ticket
Tonight is Cleveland vs Indiana and we get to see the drama show that is Lebron again tonight!
GSW and NOP will be the first matched for Round 2 of the playoffs Semifinals on the West. They scheduled for tomorrow on our timezone. This is the advantage of having an early win, winners of the semi finals will have an advantage of taking a long rest before finals.
NBA finals have fixed date so yes it's a long rest but only if they finished the series early (4-2 , 4-1 , 4-0).
Key dates: 2018 NBA playoffs
April 14: First round begins
April 30-May 1: Conference semis begin (possible move-up to April 28-29)
May 15-16: Conference finals begin (possible move-up to May 13-14)
May 31: NBA Finals begin

Stephen Curry of Golden State Warriors is still questionable if he will play on Game 1. Like I said before, there is no more pain already but Im sure Steve Kerr wants to extend the recovery period of Curry if ever they will reached the finals again or against the team they will faced at Western Conference Finals (Houston Rockets or the winner from Utah Jazz/Oklahoma City Thunders) because they really need a healthy lineup that time.
But on the other hand, if New Orleans Pelicans will able surprised the Warriors on Game 1 Im sure there will be a changed of plan and we might see Steph Curry on Game 2. Just my speculation.
LBJ haters just see the goal tending but the outside violation by the Pacers before that play isn't. We need to move on and just enjoy the game. Missed calls can't be reversed so even we cry for our team, still result is result.

I think this game will reach game 7, Bucks are still in the lead and they are comfortable playing at their home court.
If they can win this game, I will take them in game 7, just in case they will play hard and eliminate the Boston which lack of star power.
And yes it's a Game 7. The Greek Freak made a great performance.
Agree that they comfortable playing at their home but on the other hand, Boston Celtics have the same characteristics too. This series is really unpredictable and no way I can choose properly via Moneyline. Hope last game will gives us more excitement. Hope that there is no such thing as raising flag till the end.
Utah Jazz already close to winning last game. I even not watched the entire game because I though it was already a decided game. But when I looked at scoreboards after I take a break, Im surprised that Oklahoma City Thunders able to bring down the lead at single digit and finally overcome that and now takes the lead.
And people say Westbrook is the problem of OKC? Yes he is at some point and Im agree to that but without that attitude OKC can't even made to playoffs now. Good thing their head coach limit the playing time of Carmelo Anthony as he is not really productive. Appreciate the effort of Paul George too. Utah Jazz surely regret their comfortability on that game due to large lead but I think it will never happened and they are now in full force to crashed OKC next game.

What a sensational performance from Lebron. He truely is a great leader. That last play from both edge of the floor by Lebron was amazing. Thrilling packed game, respect to the Pacers who put a fight against Cavs despite of countless turnovers and missed 3's.
Its time to take the winning bet. Oh yeah!
Its time to take the winning bet. Oh yeah!
Did James really got a clean blocked against Oladipo or what is a goal tend?
Anyways, it was one of best games that James have shown us, not missing a free throw and hitting that 3 in the buzzer. I think he almost made a triple double if I'm not mistaken. The Cavs was in control of the game when the Pacers suddenly made a comeback courtesy of Sabonis. One thing I don't know is why the Pacers didn't give a foul when they still have 1 to give.
That block was clearly a goal tending. The NBA replay center made it clear for everyone. It wasnt being reviwed by the officials since there were no call.
But before that ball position, the refs already made a mistake by awarding the ball to the Pacers and gave a turnover against Lebron, Young clearly poked the ball out of bounce before Lebron touches the ball with his elbow to put the ball far beyond the line. That doesnt matter anyway if they count that Oladipo lay-up, Lebron hit the 3. Cavs still win up by 1 point.
extra edge for this playoffs series, it would be an interesting match between this two teams, if cavs snatch the win in front of the crowd of pacers
then they have another chance to defend and regain their east title, too early though but it can be a good game to watch together with okc and jazz.

I read in CBS sports that NBA ruled out that its a goal tending. Quote
Goaltending is confirmed when a player (offense or defense) touches the ball on a shot:
1. After it reaches its apex (its highest point) and is on a downward flight toward the basket with a reasonable chance to go in;
2. After it hits the backboard and is headed toward the basket, whether going up or down, with a reasonable chance to go in;
3. When it is in contact with the backboard, i.e., a player may not "trap" the ball (a batted ball against the backboard is not a trapped ball);
4. Once it has touched the rim and is either using the rim as its base or has bounced off the rim and is in the imaginary cylinder above the rim. (Note, a ball that is rolling off the rim may be touched, even if it is still in contact with the rim because it has no chance to go in); and
5. Generally, touch or vibrate the rim, backboard or net in a way that affects a shot attempt
1. After it reaches its apex (its highest point) and is on a downward flight toward the basket with a reasonable chance to go in;

It sure is if you read #2 and #3. Result of Game 5 could have been different if call has been made. Could have gone over time or Pacers clinching the win on Game 5 giving them the lead for the playoffs.

Did James really got a clean blocked against Oladipo or what is a goal tend?
Before that blocking on Oladipo, there is a turnover made by James for out of bounds but replays shown it was Pacers last touch and the next play after that is the goaltending issue.
Last game between Celtics and Bucks, refs didn't called on 24 seconds violation on Celtics although it was cleared that the ball is still the hands on Horford during the dying time. And prior to that game, refs also missed a called this time to Bucks.
And there are lots of missed calls "when the game is closed to end" that can changed the outcome of the game.
In here we can sees that refs are pressured too that their too much focus leads into lots of missed calls. Those fans or new fans who always say that refs cooking the show is totally a crap. Clearly they think of that because it's against on their team.
They can not reverse the calls even if they wanted to now because the game is over and done with. Move on.
Bucks were sucking bad in the first quarter and was down by a point.
Now that they realize that the Boston Celtics are not playing with them and want to eliminate them early on, this is do or die time for them, so now they are picking up their game and are up by 1 point in the final 2:55 of the second quarter.
If they can win this game, I will take them in game 7, just in case they will play hard and eliminate the Boston which lack of star power.
What a comeback by the Thunder, I think I will be betting on them in game 6.
It was an intense game.They have to win the game 6 so that they can advance to the next bracket.
Jazz has to figure out how to balance their defense, they should not only rely on the their rokie star.
I'm so excited on this series, this is a very competitive series.
Definitely, The momentum of the series shifted to OKC. The Jazz thought it was over and became relaxed without noticing that they are already been over run by the OKC, especially, Russel Westbrook contributions even though they are down with 25 he did what we thought as impossible. Russ is truly a beast. The Jazz must seal this game 6, then if not there Finals dream will slip away.

I’ve still got the Cavs Golden State in the finals. Has anyone used NitrogenSports for NBA games , I’ve heard they offer US Sports BTC bets.
NitrogenSports has all games available including UFC if your into that sort of stuff too. 
Cavaliers just beat the Pacers while they were down 59 - 46 going into the half.
I thought they were done for certain.LeBron scored a buzzer beater 3-pointer to win the game to lead the series.
On Nitro at half they were 2.30x odds at half time to win by -2.5. I took it and thought I lost because it looked like when Oplindpo scored at 3 seconds left on the clock it was going into overtime for sure.
Series these playoffs are intense.
Truly intense. Gave me the goosebumps there, even though I am not a fan of both Indiana and Cleveland I got to jump when Lebron shoots that buzzer beater.
It is going to be a lot of advertisement incoming for NBA and Lebron just to get that video in their commercials.
Will be talked all this year. It is nice come back from the Cavaliers. Good luck to them for game 6.One thing I don't know is why the Pacers didn't give a foul when they still have 1 to give.
Hard to think to foul with just seconds left. It will be a risk if suddenly the player moves to a shooting position.
What a sensational performance from Lebron. He truely is a great leader. That last play from both edge of the floor by Lebron was amazing. Thrilling packed game, respect to the Pacers who put a fight against Cavs despite of countless turnovers and missed 3's.

Any OKC fans here? I do not know what is happening but they are 1 game away from being ejected.
I thought they can overpower Utah Jazz with Carmelo Anthony and Paul George there but Ricky Rubio is making it so hard for them. Any Comments about this? I am losing my bet.
I am not an OKC fan here. I think the Thunder lack the scouting with regards to Ricky Rubio's style of play. He is the one big factor why they are up in the series right now. If they don't make some adjustments on how to depend Rubio, it would be goodbye for the Thunder come game 5.I thought they can overpower Utah Jazz with Carmelo Anthony and Paul George there but Ricky Rubio is making it so hard for them.

better to look on how to disturbed him if OKC wants to win and still got the chance, aside from that OKC also needs to reassembled the offensive and defensive rotations, they have the players that can contribute they just need the leadership, the trio should step up and bring intensity.
In my opinion, what you're saying makes sense.
When Kevin Durant is teammate of Russell Westbrook, they also fight and I think that is the reason there. He also has a lot of misplays, and I think for having Paul George and Carmelo Anthony on the team imbalance the that since they are also offensive players. I do hope OKC do well on the last game since I thought having Paul George and Carmelo Anthony on the team will be a great profit.
Well the same can also be said for carmelo anthony though. The nuggets amd the knicks didn't go very far with him as the main guy. And westbrook' been doing what he's been doing all these time. I think the jazz are simply playing above par this season and it isn't only about rubio, donovan mitchell has been playing like a veteran and it rubs off the rest of the team. It seems they're peaking quite early with their young guns
