I had to change my bet from the Mavs to the Celtics' first-half handicap (-3.5), even though I like the full time handicap for the Mavs, you can't go wrong with the first-half handicap on the Celtics when it's only by a few points. This market wasn't that great during the Pacers series, but I think it'll be different against the Mavs, and they could struggle with the pace of the Celtics based on their previous meetings.

Easy cash for you! as Boston leads double digits during the first half and still maintain that lead up to this point, one more quarter and we will see if who will going to take this game, though the lead is still huge but knowing how the team can manage to outrun their opponents Boston needs to continue making their attacks and not to be careless to keep and maintain their lead.

It's now needed for Kyrie and Luka to bring that spark if they failed to deliver then this first game will be for the home team.

Good luck everyone.
Risky bet but profitable if the Mavs can somehow steal this game against the Celtics home.

I don't like the end of the first half, my money is on the line and I'm panicking! Just joking, not looking for the Mavs and they need to bounce back for the 2nd quarter. This is the score for the first half:

Code:

63-42

That's 21 points on the lead by the Celtics, they're on fire but the game hasn't ended yet and we've seen a lot of cinderella games like this that the lead was so much and then the opposing team were able to get back. Let's see how the next half will be going, so that's two quarters still and I hope that the Mavs are going to at least fight for my money. Haha!
Whatever the results will be, I'm fine and totally this is part of it but as long as the game isn't ended yet, there's still hope for me.

I didn't know that there would be a lot of NBA fans in my neighborhood that would be up against me.
Sadly, their offers are too bad than what is offered in the online bookies.
x2 only for them without a plus while in the bookies I can get x3. So, I decided to just bet online rather than betting against them.

In 47 minutes (time of writing) the Finals tip-off will begin. Finally.
Here is my pick.

Boston Celtics - Dallas Mavericks - Over 214.5
Boston Celtics - Dallas Mavericks - Dallas Mavericks ML @3.05.

Good luck everyone.
Risky bet but profitable if the Mavs can somehow steal this game against the Celtics home.

I think that Boston will win this series. I think that Boston will win tonight's game. However, I don't like the odds against Dallas that I'm seeing. Especially for a game 1 when Dallas has already beaten them multiple times during the season and Boston has been without Kristaps Porzingis for a few games. I think tonight has all the makings of an upset, so I'm going with the best odds for Dallas here. I think they can lose by less than 9 and have a chance to win, so there you have it. I would've taken Boston to win if the odds were better.

I know I'm just as excited as everyone else with the apparent commencement of the 2024 NBA Finals, I'm really not trying to get ahead of myself with my expectations or predictions. I'm going with Over 214.5 total points @ 1.70 Odds, there are some many hypes for certain match-ups, KP availability and Luka and Kyrie potential backcourt-duo dynasty, but the series is rather way too young to be dwelling on ifs and buts, so I'm rooting for good offensive efficiency to be at play for Game 1

Total Points: Over 214.5

Good luck with your bet mate. I can't resit betting on the Mavericks, however, I need to be more careful here, so I'll just put a little bet just to feel the thrill watching the game. Dallas had surprised the Wolves, I'm not sure they can win game 1 here, but let's enjoy watching this game.

Thanks! That's fine, it doesn't matter whether you bet big or small. What matters here is what you wanna do with the first game. Some are just going to watch and speculate and see who's got the upper hand but everyone just want to watch alongside with some bets just for the thrill of it.

Same here, with a small amount, it doesn't matter if I lose but I will not go against my instinct this time, not in the NBA finals.

Good luck to you as well, just cast that bet of yours and just enjoy the game later. Well, I've already placed mine, I forgot to share it.

I'm just for the series(game 1) winner, maybe on the next games I'd go with the other bets that can be done through this finals.

As far as regular season goes, they are the best team, as they have the best record and then they are boasted by Jayson Tatum and Brown. It's just Dallas has one of the best player right now in Luka. But I will be taking the Celtics here at -4.5 in game one and then see how it goes. Porzingis will be back as he is badly needed, so I think he will contribute here and Tatum and Brown doesn't want to happen to them when they go to the finals 2 years ago and lost to the Warriors.

I would take the -6.5 for a better odds. This Dallas hype has been all over, making the handicap very attractive. With that said, I think it's time to bet against them as this could be a blowout win by the Celtics. I'm thinking Celtics are gonna win by blowout in game 1, and Dallas will take game 2 or just cover the handicap but will loss.

I am not entirely sure if Dallas is the favourites, sure they did manage to beat some tough teams to get here, and even beat some tough teams that beat other tough teams, hence why many think that it is quite possible for Dallas to win.

They are not the betting favorite, as per the odds already released by casinos.

Quote from: FanEagle on June 03, 2024, 05:01:32 AM

But, we need to remember that Boston has been quite strong as well. Just because they manage to beat their opponents easily, doesn't mean they had easy opponents, it just means that we are going to end up seeing a team that is actually quite good. I am not saying Boston will win, I am just saying Dallas doesn't have a sure thing here, we are going to probably see both teams go head to head quite strong, and I can see that this could also be a six or seven game series as well, they are quite evenly matched.

The hype probably belong to the Dallas as they almost sweep the Timberwolves in the series, while the Celtics came from a boring victory as they easily dominated their opponents, swept the Pacers in the ECF. That's why we re gambling because there's no assurance as to what team will win, but if you are Dallas fan and you are confident they'll beat the Celtics, you should not waste your time and take that +184 while it's still available.

Just a little survey here:

Dallas finished by beating tough teams, like healthy teams, except for the Clippers, who didn't have a healthy Leonard. Now, they are in the NBA Finals trying to win a championship against a team that is also hungry to win. I would like to ask about the game 1 odds here. Are you tempted to bet on the Dallas handicap or the moneyline?

I read on other forums that some have been saying the game 1 handicap for Dallas, which is +6.5, might be a trap, and this could be another easy win for the home team to cover the spread. So now, what do you think about that? Will you change your mind, or will you follow your heart and take Dallas?

Tough bet tonight but I took the timberwolves. They are favored by 4.5 points and think they extend this to 6 games. They have home court and maybe a little momentum with the win in game 4.

I'm also taking the over 207.5. I think this will be a game that falls in the 220s. Just hoping for a good game honestly.

Good luck and enjoy the game!

Lost the Wolves thing fairly easily but saved myself with the over. Luka couldn't miss from anywhere last night. I'm taking Dallas to win the series just because I don't think they can stop Luka for a 7 game series. Dude is unstoppable. First game laying on Dallas moneyline a dn the over. Taking the over every game no matter the line. Should be a scoring frenzy in the finals

Both Dallas and Wolves are a good team defensively but most of their games went over, so I like your strategy on betting on the over as either team could score a lot of points especially if their 3 point shooting will fall. Luka just could not be stop, because if the Celtics will put their best defender on him, he can easily put him into foul trouble as this guy is just too good in fishing foul.

I guess we are all with Dallas here, the game 1 handicap was very tempting, but honestly, I'm not so comfortable with it as I find it a trap. I guess I'll follow the over but not gonna bet on Dallas, just in game 1.

As much as I want to see the extension of this series and Timberwolves win. I want to see the finals as soon as possible and the odds are better with the Dallas than of them.

I also placed my bet on the Mavs, and I assume Lively is going to play in this game now that he's not listed as out or questionable in the updated starting lineups.

There's no Scott Foster to help out the Timberwolves and with most of their games going down the wire, give me the team with the better odds.

Congratulations to us, those that have bet for the Mavs to win against the Timberwolves.

We have the Finals now.
Dallas Mavericks versus the Boston Celtics.
Which team do you think will get the first punch? I don't think homecourt advantage will matter in this series anymore. We have seen the Celtics win in Pacers' home. We have seen the Mavs win in Wolves home too. There's no telling who could win this game so it can become a matter of fanbase betting. Emotional betting.
I bet the Mavs will still be underdogs so I might keep on betting for them in the 2 games at their home. We will see.

That's right, the homecourt advantage might still affect but it's the least to be thought of. When teams are on the finals, they can't easily be affected by the crowd. They can't be intimidated with any cheering and that's whichever's homecourt is in there, there's no way to stop both of them. But this is the finals, there will only one winner.

Who is already watching the Game 4 of Timberwolves vs Mavericks?
Good start from Timberwolves but I took it as advantage to get goods odds and I am betting on Mavericks for +4.5
I just bet even the Timberwolves are already +10 from the Dallas mavericks. Goodluck

Had the +4.5 handicap on my betbuilder because didn't believe the Mavs would of been so dominant this match.
And you see those 20 points in the first quarter on your screenshot? Those were Doncic's as he outscored the entire Timberwolves starters.

source: https://www.star-telegram.com/sports/article288900192.html

Luka was also awarded with the MVP of the West conference Finals:
https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/luka-doncic-wins-magic-johnson-western-conference-finals-mvp-award-as-mavericks-reach-nba-finals/

From the 1 out of 7 bets I had lost the majority of them during these NBA play-offs.
Just last nights game took me into profit by giving me 4x the amount that I had wagered throughout the entire tournament.
So made up for it with a master-class performance by Luka, Kyrie and the Mavericks.
Former NBA champions from 2011 are going to face off Boston in a weeks time on June 6th.

This game should be tight, so I'm backing the Dallas Mavericks with the points in this matchup.

You were wrong with this, but you won your bet. In fact, the + points weren't necessary as Dallas dominated the home team and never gave them a chance to come back after the first quarter. There was too much Luka and Irving in this game, and I'm happy for Luka as he didn't get the regular MVP award but got the MVP in the WCF. He'll probably get the Finals MVP too if Dallas beats the Celtics.

That was an easy win by @GreatArkansas .. but he coud just go for the bigger odds, the moneyline.

Luka winning MVP still has some decent odds in it. Most likely Luka will win the MVP if Dallas will win because he contributes in every end, he is a triple double guy, so he might be limited with points but he'll have more assists and grab some rebound as well.

Quote from: Russlenat on May 31, 2024, 06:59:54 AM

I checked the odds for the MVP race in the Finals and saw that Irving to win had x23. What do you think about this?

In my opinion, this is really attractive as Irving took it personally, and the same with the Boston fans against him. If Dallas wins, he'll probably be the one to take over as Luka just allows what Irving is doing. ^{(that's the other side of my prediction, but it's still Dallas.)}

You never know, but odds that high is set that way for a reason, it will not likely hit but I remember before an odds higher than that winning the Finals MVP. if you still remember Andre Iguodala won the Finals MVP for the Warriors for doing a great job on Lebron, IIRC, the odds was like x100 that time.

actually more than that according to Andre Iguodala was 125-1 to win NBA Finals MVP and now is the favorite
