I almost won this combo. If only the New Orleans Pelicans had won, I would have won this combo too. I thought the Pelicans would win that match because Game 1 was a close match and they almost won Game 1, especially if CJ McCollum had made that last shot. I also managed to predict 1st half/full time for Celtics vs Heat but another leg ruin it. Of course its Pelicans again. 😤

Damn mate, that was some tough pill to swallow especially when the Heat with the most odds had won and cover the Over, almost 3x the odds of that of the Pelicans.. Better luck next time.

I'm still very undecided about any bets for today, I like the Denver vs Lakers match up but I think there will be some tweaks to the roster, I don't know exactly what to expect but if there are not much changes, I likely would go towards Jamal Murray assists or PRA over, the current line for Jokic and Anthony Davis which have been my go to pick in the first 2 games is now ridiculously high from my perspective, Both of them are @ 13.5 Rebs each @ less than 2 Odds, so I'm going to pretty much pass on that one. Perhaps, I could take a risk with a role player, Reggie Jackson, Reaves, Gabe and Dinwindie are those I have in mind, I'll make a decision very close to the tip off.

Boston Celtics - Miami Heat - Miami Heat (12.5) Won! I was right, they are too underrated just like last year, their bench is not to mess with. Miami Heat is a strong team with a deep bench.
Oklahoma City Thunder - New Orleans Pelicans - Oklahoma City Thunder (-5.5) Won! Just what I expected, they learned from Game 1 and now dominated the game.

Later, 3 games.
Here are my picks.
Orlando Magic - Cleveland Cavaliers - Orlando Magic (-1.5)
Philadelphia 76ers - New York Knicks - New York Knicks ML @2.75 - Knicks are playing like a crazy game and I believe they can end this quick while Embiid is hurting.
Los Angeles Lakers - Denver Nuggets - Denver Nuggets ML @1.96 - Yes, 3-0 it is.

Good luck everyone! Have a great day.

As for the other match Shai got 33 points and all I needed was 26.5 to cover my prop bet. So it is no wonder he could win the MVP award with outstanding performances as he did in last nights game.
Also to mention Chet Holmgren scoring 26 points still in his rookie year is something to note too.

That's the adjustment they made in game 2 because the Pelicans almost snatch a win, but in game 2, OKC did the right thing and have dominated the Peliicans. I like the production of Chet Holmgren, it has gave him that confidence to score 26 points int he playoffs and his 3 point shooting as well is consistent with 50% on that game. 59% for OKC total FG%, thats too high and it seems like the Pelicans forgot how to defend as they allowed the OKC to score 124 points which they are only limited to 92, the same score in game 1, but the difference was the defense.

I'm sticking to the players props as usual, for tonight I've got two players in mind I saw Tyler Herro Over 4.5 assists @ 1.64, and I hop on that quickly, Herro didn't get that many assist in game 1, but things are meant to different for the Heat tonight and I was expecting Erik Spoelstra to make some adjustment that would have Herro on the ball a whole lot more.

Alternatively; I've also got Shai Gilgeous-Alexander total points Over 28.5 @ 1.83, SGA was a point in game 1, but that could be attributed to him starting a bit slow, I guess he should be firing on all cylinders today, if he can get going early.

The Boston game was surreal to watch with the fans in disbelief. Everyone didn't think Miami could do anything against the Celtics at The Garden especially without Jimmy Butler. There was a post by him after the game with his face superimposed on a poster of a Celtics player saying "Just one game!",

Good pick as you predicted it right, without Butler Herro find ways to bring his teammate to his battle, providing 14successful assists and really played well to snatch this game 2 against the home team, not just a deadly shooter but also he showed that he got that skills finding his open teammates.

checking the current stats, SGA already got 24points and still have a whole 4th quarter to play, good luck !

Thank you!

SGA ended the game with 33 points, maybe I'll start consider some 5-10+ fold ACCA for the player props as I look to be hitting them with some good success rate, I'm currently around well above 90%+ from my single props since the playoffs started, I think I have only lost just once. Hopefully, I can keep the streak and momentum for a long time.

Checked the match awhile ago, and saw the Celtics and Heat match. Just did a little research why the odds is x9 and just find out that Butler is not playing and it's Boston's homecourt but I've saw the defense and 3's of the Heat and thought they can win without Jimmy and turns out I was right. That was some good bet but I haven't staked too much, but still it's still x9. Congrats to me! Grin

That's some nice nice one! Congrats!

Miami have gotten to even the series as it heads back to Miami, I hope they're not looking to cause another major upset here like they did with the Bucks a year while playing as the 8th seed as well.

I'm getting a high scoring vibe from this game, I don't know why. It's very tough indeed to know which team would cover the spread in these matches tbh, good luck with your bet mate Wink

2nd Quarter Edit: Unrelated but is anyone catching the game ? Some OKC fan named "Eli" just hit a mid court short for a whooping $20,000 from Midfirst Shocked

I'm switching it up with the under again, as I still think the total they've set for this game is a bit high after their first game ended up with 186 points. Also, i've avoided the spread because I can't get a read on who'll cover for today.

Ate it on the other other night with an 0-3. I have my picks in for the 2 on tonight.

Going with the Pelicans +7.5. Was a tight game last time and with a young okc team I think it will be the same.

Also going with the road heat team. They payed terribly last game and don't expect them to win but I think they backdoor cover the +14.5

Hopefully the games are good, enjoy and good luck!

Minnesota Timberwolves - Phoenix Suns - Minnesota Timberwolves (-1.5) Won!
Milwaukee Bucks - Indiana Pacers - Indiana Pacers ML @1.98 Won!
Los Angeles Clippers - Dallas Mavericks - Dallas Mavericks (-2.5) Won!

I was not wrong and my fingers crossed was successful. Grin

Perfect!

Was the Luka Doncic technical foul the first one in the 2024 playoffs? I was looking for a fight that would happen because the game was so tight at every matchup but I think this is the first one that someone got a tech. I've seen Lebron upset about no calls and then him blaming the replay center but none was called against him.

Anyway, we have 2 games later.
Boston Celtics - Miami Heat - Miami Heat (12.5) - Underrated. No Butler, No Rozier, but like I said before I have seen this team step up their game especially the bench players who don't want their team undermanned.
Oklahoma City Thunder - New Orleans Pelicans - Oklahoma City Thunder (-5.5) Last time was a close game. Let's see if the Thunder could somehow play a dominating game.

Good luck everyone!

And this is huge for them.

Suns' Grayson Allen aggravates ankle injury in Game 2 loss
he is a good 3 point shooter and probably a good defender as well, his loss in game 2 is a huge blow for the Suns. However, no excuses here, they need to come up with a solution in game 3, otherwise they'll be in the brink of elimination.

Spread for the Suns at game 3 has shifted, they are now the favorited by -4.5.

They need to adjust and take all the challenges that they are facing right now, Allen is a good two-way player indeed but they can't use that as excuse while competiting in this playoff, they need to find ways to counter whatever the Wolves are doing great, I guess they need to answer that aggressiveness of the each players both offensively and defensively, by looking at that two previous games they've been dominated and they can't find anything to answer back.

Wolves keeps doing good adjustments whenever Suns is trying to rally, they've got answered not just offensively but also defensively they are not ducking anyone they are competing and keep doing their best.

Timberwolves is too strong for them even with Allen or not. Suns line-is focus only on offense since most of them is offensive player while Timberwolves has a solid offense and defense with KAT and Gobert on this roster while the rest of the team has an easy life to score.

I think even Nuggets will have a hard time dealing with the wolves unless KAT will be injured again. But statistically wise, I think Wolves will dominate the western conference this year. They have a very solid lineup and balanced which is almost the same with last year Nuggets roster.

I think the road teams could be worth a shot today but the odds just aren't enticing enough so it's better to ride with home teams ML here than the road teams with a too low handicap line if you ask me, Dallas Mavericks are the only road team that could be worth backing ML, but they too have a couple of inexperienced players that's factoring into their entire result, but Kyrie and Doncic seem rather enough to carry this team, especially if Kawhi Leonard remains out for Clippers.

Indiana Pacers are way too playoffs game inexperienced for their own, and they look really out of sync or form in game, even without Giannis they'll need to correct a whole lot of things to be able force a long and interesting series for the Bucks, and the first things will be taking care of the ball and knocking down shots when they have the opportunities.

Same with your thoughts, i wasn't able to update here but I bet on the road teams last night. I won on the Pacers and the Mavericks but loss to the Suns big time, not sure if this team could come back in this series, you know, 2-0 deficit is kinda hard but let's see. Of the games that I won, the Pacers was the easiest but I have fun watching how the Dallas won, I just like Kyrie, he is in beast mode and so unstoppable.

So tomorrow we have 2 games, I'll skip the Miami Heat vs Celtics, but I like the Pelicans to upset the OKC Thunder.

Just like a placard with a sarcastic writing that I saw from a Minnesota Timberwolves' fan in the game last night which states "The Sun always set", I guess that meant the Phoenix Suns are no longer effective if I'm not mistaken ?

Frank Vogel really need to look for new answers from his role players, their big three alone just isn't going to cut it, they'll need help deep into their roster, they don't complement each other enough, maybe one of them would even be better of starting from the bench, and the lack of a natural point guard is quite evident in their team, Bookers performance have dropped significantly, maybe if they had kept Jordan Goodwin he'd have coming in handy right now.

That being said, the series is just 2-0 and it'll be utterly naive to consider it a done deal just yet, I think Phoenix could even the series on home court, but I'll go with Minnesota to win the series in 6.

And this is huge for them.

My bet on Jokic should be an easy hit, Jokic with a double-double already and it's still just the first quarter of the game, 3 rebounds more with 36 minutes left to play for should definitely be an easy reach for Jokic here

Seems Jokic is giving us easy win because he is unstoppable, the only way the Lakers could win if they have a good shooting which they showed in game 2 but just fall short in the end. Jokic ended with triple double record, (27, 20, 10), insane numbers, it should be a another history for him I guess. Anyway congratulations mate.

All the games last night had the hometeams won their respective games, so it's 2-0 for all of them.

Now, we will have 3 games

Suns vs Wolves -3
Pacers vs Bucks -1
Dallas vs Clippers +2.5

I think betting on the road team is interesting, what are your thoughts here?

Not sure what game to put alongside with another playoff game will need to review my choices in another hour when my reloads come in so to place a bet for tonight.

Have you considered Tyrese Haliburton on total number of assists ? He was offered at 10.5 assists @ ~1.85+ in game 1, of course he fell 3 assist short in that game 1.

He's currently still offered over 10.5 assists @ 2.00 Odds, I like this and I believe it should be a hit, he should have easily hit the number in game 1 too, but the Pacers were extremely awful in finding the bucket in that game, while their transition offense still look pretty well like something that should give the Bucks a real run for their money in as much as they finish around the rim and convert their open look shots this time around, Hali should have no problem getting a double digit assists.

Tried to put a props bet together but it didn't work out so took the ML instead and was surprised when I checked the score late in the 4th quarter. The Pacers were ahead by 16+ points and the Bucks already had their bench on the floor while Pacers still had their starters which was strange to see.
Got them at 1.98x which was better than the over 10.5 assists for Tyrese.
There were shooting the lights out with all the three's during the game.
@ralle14 yeah without Giannis in the game Lillard had to step up and he did. Every shot was essentially going in for him while I was watching the first half.

The Bucks had a clean win in their first game, and i'll take advantage of the close odds for the second game because they still have a decent advantage with Lillard taking the lead. Even if the Pacers could improve their shooting percentage today, I still feel they'll come up short if it becomes a close game.
