Hello Guys.

I think tonight is the last night cause Denver will champ.

My picks for tonight.

Denver Nuggets(-1,5) vs Miami Heat = First Quarter Win 1,70 Odds.

Bam Adebayo Points, Assists and Rebounds = 33,5 Over 1,82 Odds.


Good luck guys.


Many really are expecting this to happen and that the Denver Nuggets will be the new NBA champions, I am now excited about the result of the game good luck to all bettors and even the risk takers,



Right now it is really hard to believe what Jimmy Butler is saying after their game 4 loss and another loss will result in the Denver Nuggets getting the championship, well for the game for today here are my pick and bet

Denver Nuggets VS Miami Heat

The stake odds for this game are 1.27 for the Nuggets and 4.00 for the Heat, Right now the Denver Nuggets don't have any injuries except Collin Gillespie that has a hand injury and is out this season, while Tyler Herro has a hand injury and is questionable if he's going to play for the Miami Heat and Victor Oladipo that his knee injury and is now out for this season, for this game, it is not surprising if the Denver Nuggets will win this because they are in advantage right now even though the Miami Heat Jimmy Butler still has the confidence in saying that they can likely do it, it is really risky in getting a bet for the Miami heat so my pick for this game is the Denver Nuggets,

Nuggets wrapping up the Finals today, aren't they?

Heat could get Herro back, but even if he is cleared, i don't think it makes much of a difference, he hasn't played in two months and i'm not sure how much he can contribute at this point.

One thing i'd like to see Miami try is to switch everything, every PnR, dribble handoff, and so on. They tried zone, but it didn't work, trapping and blitzing Murray and Jokic doesn't work either because both can find the open guy at any time. Switching forces the Nuggets to end in a lot of one-on-one situations, it also eliminates all of the easy buckets Gordon and the rest get off of cuts. I'm not saying the Heat have the personnel to pull this off, given Vincent, Strus, and Robinson are a liability on defense, but they can try for at least a quarter...

In any case, here are my bets, every single line has a 100% hit ratio so far in the Finals. It would be great if Murray one hits...but can he get another game with 10+ assists? I suppose we'll find out soon enough. Gl, everyone!  Wink


Jokic 20+ points/ Jokic 10+ rebounds / Jokic 1+ 3pts @1.61  won

Bam 20+ points / Bam 9+ rebounds / Bam 3+ assists @3.10  X

Murray 10+ assists / Murray 3+ rebounds / Murray 1+ steals / Murray 2+ 3pts @4.10  X

I don’t think Tyler Herro makes a difference either way. They’re playing in Denver so they’ve got altitude and the home crowd working against them. Denver will be wanting to finish them off and I’m pretty sure that’s what will happen. Likely in a blowout as Miami resorts to hoisting 3s. That being said, I think you have to bet on Miami tonight. The odds on Denver just aren’t worth participating in.

The odds were really the worst right now but will be making my build bet for this game right now and will be posting it here I also think that the Denver Nuggets will be finishing the Miami Heat right now they can not afford to risk and letting the Miami heat win another game, so here are what I think

Denver Nuggets vs Miami Heat

The Denver Nugget will be taking on the Miami Heat in game 5 for the NBA finals at Ball Arena, Right now there are no injuries for the Denver Nuggets except Collin Gillespie (hand) but he is out for this season, while the Miami Heat key injuries are Tyler Herro (hand) and is questionable if he can play for the Heat against the Nuggets, and Victor Oladipo (knee) and like Gillespie he is also out of this season, right now the Nuggets is playing at their home court but this game I am really not trusting the Miami Heat on this one, for this one making Under 210.5, on Total,  Over 20.5 for Jokic, Over 25.5 for Murray, and over 9.5 Jokic Assists

Yeah I'm trying to figure out how to bet this game right now, and I think I'm with you on this.  On one hand the Denver Nuggets are clearly the superior team, there's just no question about it, but on the other this is life or death for the Miami Heat, and I'm just not sure that I can put my money down on a 9 point spread. 

On one hand I'm kind of hoping to wait to bet the game and see if the Heat can take an early lead so I can try and get the spread at a lesser number, but on the other maybe I just take the +9 points with Miami.

Not sure that any other bet makes sense here..

https://www.cbssports.com/nba/injuries/#:~:text=INJURY%20STATUS-,Tyler%20Herro,-PG

Yes, Tyler Herro's situation is going to be clear by game time. However even if he returns by this game I don't think this can change things so much. He has been out for 2 months due to broken hand. He needs to reach match fitness again and I don't think he can recover this quick. There is like no time to warm up well for this game.

Therefore I don't expect much contribution from him even if he plays. I don't even expect him to play for a long time either to not risk him right after coming back from an injury. The series is in favour of Nuggets by 3-1. Nobody can save Heat from this situation from now on I think.

As you know Heat finished the regular season in 7th place in the Eastern Conference. As a result not many people including me were giving them a chance to have a run like this. Butler has done the biggest work in this time period by scoring a lot of points and carrying his team. He has become like Lakers' Lebron or Warriors' Curry.

Therefore Butler needs to be aware of the seriousness of the situation and do something.

I'm guilty about that as well because at first, I didn't have that much confidence towards the Heat especially in the first round where they faced the New York Knicks which they eventually defeated but in the second round, it was almost impossible for me to believe that they can defeat the #1 seed in the East which they did as well. But in the conference finals, that's when I have put my faith in them and it turns out profitable because they managed to eliminate the Celtics and almost swept them after having a 3-0 advantage.

I doubted them through every series.  Of the series I thought they could win was the Celtics one because they match up well against them.  They got help with giannis getting hurt in game one.  But this one might end up being a quick 5 game gentlemen sweep.  I'm leaning hard on Denver all the way through.  No answer for jokic.  And if Murray is on forget it no chance.

It's not that totally unfair where we can say that they got helped from Giannis getting hurt in Game 1 which eventually leaded to certain games of unavailability because the Miami Heat also have their own handicap as Herro and Oladipo's absence really gave the team some troubles too instead of having a much higher win rate per game in a specific series. I mean, look at them now, they surely needed someone who can also handle defense and give some offense but even if Tyler Herro is already available, it's not a wise move to insert him to the team in this phase.

Herro needs to be a two-way player here, but coming from an injury it will be a big risk for him.

I think if coach Spo will use him in game 5, he will be more on a decoy to give space for the shooters, I mean Nuggets might be
more aggressive here forcing to end the series at home.

Herro needs to be more careful to avoid from suffering with another injury, though in the back of my head, I would love to see
the competitiveness of this kid,.

Can't hurt to throw him out there.  You will see within 2-3 minutes what he looks like.  Play him early with a short leash.  They are gonna have to throw the kitchen sink at Denver to stop them.  In the end I got Denver-9.  I know Miami will be battling but the talent levels are just to much for Miami to handle.

I saw that as well and it seems like that it will be their last ace because it's somehow evident already that they cannot penetrate that much.

Heat’s Tyler Herro update signals likely status for NBA Finals Game 5 vs. Nuggets

Hard to forecast if they can survive the next game and force their way until the both teams will be needing a Game 7 because Herro's arrival might give the team a different outcome, but considering the situation that they are in now, I don't think that they have another option because if they will continue the game and have the same line-up, the results are much likely to be the same and might be the last game as well in this series. So, let's see.
The problem here is they increased the expectation for Tyler Herro's return and it was said that he will come at Game 3 but he didn't. Now, the Miami Heat badly need all the help they could get and the offense is one of their problems, Herro might be the key to their survival in this series. The Miami Heat's defense is definitely elite but even if they can get stops, if they cannot score it will all result in nothing.
This is where good coaching will be seen, Coach Erik Spoelstra did some good adjustments in Game 2, and somehow that surprised the Denver Nuggets, especially in the first quarter. The method of surprise, was when he suddenly put Kevin Love on the starting five and then gave Duncan Robinson more minutes to act as a decoy in spacing the floor more. It actually worked but he cannot repeat the same thing again, the other problem is they are undermanned. Without Victor Oladipo and Herro, it's hard to find where your offense will come from.

I really think the Denver Nuggets will end it in their home.

Herro will play as the Heat have their backs against the wall now. They need a spark and will hope he provides it for them. They have to win 3 in a row now, can't just use the same line ups and hope all their 3 point attempts drop.

Another win.  Leaning in hard on game 5.  I can't see Miami coming back and game 5 will end up being just too much.  We could be witnessing the beginning of a dynasty here.  Jokic has learned how to completely control the game and with Murray, mjp, and Gordon along with the other role players this team is set to win for awhile.

I love how Gordon understand Jokic so well and everytime Jokic gets the ball he go in and makes the points. But the Murray Jokic duo is soo good this season and no body can stop them. I also think that Miami cannot make a comeback in these series and i think in the next game might be over already with 4-1 for the Nuggets.

That good eye-sight of Jokic gives everyone a chance to score.

He's very unpredictable, he can attack,pass and shoot the ball. An all around offensive arsenal
that gives the Nuggets a big advantage. And just like what you say, the combination of Murray
who also can create the same damage the way Jokic did, it's really a hard task for the Heat,
chances to win in game 5 is slim but we never know, maybe they may push for another one or Nuggets
will be crown as champ in front of their home crowd.
If the Nuggets win this and Jokic wins the Finals MVP, can we already consider him to be the best center in the history of the NBA, or am I just exaggerating? LOL. Sorry, but I'm just really impressed with how he played and how he remains unstoppable in the NBA Finals so far.

Another win.  Leaning in hard on game 5.  I can't see Miami coming back and game 5 will end up being just too much.  We could be witnessing the beginning of a dynasty here.  Jokic has learned how to completely control the game and with Murray, mjp, and Gordon along with the other role players this team is set to win for awhile.

Too early to talk about dynasty though, yes they have the chemistry but there are a lot of factors specially being healthy is a must if they want to stay on top. Warriors have their dynasty run when their core is healthy, but when injuries sets it, they have difficulty. Like the Bucks when they won their first ring, we thought that they could established a dynasty as well.

But as far as the championship goes, yeah it's hard to go against them, they might have lost game 2 at home. But for sure they don't want to extend this series and could win the next game.

-9.5 is the initial handicap given to us by sports bookies. But -8.5 is still good in my opinion although obviously, the odds are smaller.

Chemistry. Both players Aaron Gordon and Nikola Jokic achieved great chemistry while Jamal while still resting with his injury. All they need is to insert Murray back but we can still see there is a miss pass when it's Gordon and Murray who does the same as Jokic does. The suppose to be alley-oop for Gordon assisted by Murray was an example of that, their eyes are not that matched yet.

Same with you @wheelz1200 I am going for the Nuggets again, I don't think I will have a chance to take that large handicap for the Miami Heat, I just don't see them winning too. Jokic is hungry, Murray is hungry too, and Gordon is hungrier.  Grin They will probably play harder in their home and get their revenge for the stolen one in Game 2. The fans will also be livelier here and that might break the confidence of the Miami Heat, I know Jimmy likes the competition but he should've done that at their home, this will be in a different environment and if he will be the only one with high confidence, they will lose.
Another triple-double for Jokic?

I totally agree with you guys on the Butler topic. He is really inadequate on the offensive side in this series which can lead Heat to lose easier than most of us expect. Butler needs to be more active with his steal attempts and scoring many more points than this at the same time. He has been the main factor in Heat's reaching this round in the playoff stage in the first place.

As you know Heat finished the regular season in 7th place in the Eastern Conference. As a result not many people including me were giving them a chance to have a run like this. Butler has done the biggest work in this time period by scoring a lot of points and carrying his team. He has become like Lakers' Lebron or Warriors' Curry.

Therefore Butler needs to be aware of the seriousness of the situation and do something.

It's definitely a gameover If Denver Nuggets should win this game 4, which I think they will unless Jimmy Butler choses to either step up today or sit out, and I really don't know when next he get a shot at winning a championship, should the Heat win the Championship this it's pretty obvious whose name would make the most story and it's that of Butler's over everyone else on the Heat roster, he's stated really with the Bucks and Celtics, but all that would have count for nothing if he folds now!

What NBA story could possible better than the 8th seeded team and with the most undrafted playing winning a championship while beating the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th best teams of the regular season enroute to the victory, and that'll make Jimmy go down as the first to have done it, I know they're some many record that have been broken this season and post alone by various teams or individual, but there is still a few more that could get broken too.


The Heat have never been behind in a series prior to the NBA Finals. This is the only series where they are trailing, but if it becomes 3-1, then you are right that the series could be over soon. However, it's too early to discuss that in my opinion because the Heat are still fighting to even the series. Despite being the underdogs, they haven't let that deter them. They are here to compete and aim to make history by winning the championship. It's this kind of dedication that makes them a good team.

But the thing is, the Denver Nuggets is also aiming the same thing where they can make a history and give the franchise their very first championship title. Winning the next game in their own home is very likely the case because I don't think that they will not push and force this game so that they can celebrate their very first own title in their home. And about the Heat, they still have a chance to bounce back but let's just be honest here because their chance is not that good as they are definitely having a hard time pushing a win against the whole roster of Nuggets.

It's definitely a gameover If Denver Nuggets should win this game 4, which I think they will unless Jimmy Butler choses to either step up today or sit out, and I really don't know when next he get a shot at winning a championship, should the Heat win the Championship this it's pretty obvious whose name would make the most story and it's that of Butler's over everyone else on the Heat roster, he's stated really with the Bucks and Celtics, but all that would have count for nothing if he folds now!

What NBA story could possible better than the 8th seeded team and with the most undrafted playing winning a championship while beating the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th best teams of the regular season enroute to the victory, and that'll make Jimmy go down as the first to have done it, I know they're some many record that have been broken this season and post alone by various teams or individual, but there is still a few more that could get broken too.

Indeed it would have been an amazing story if Heat made it in this situation. But it really seems like game over from now on as Nuggets have brought the series to 3-1. The point gap was again above 10 points which is really another solid win for Nuggets side. Moreover Nuggets are going to have a court advantage next time. It will probably end by 4-1 as a result.

Jokic definitely deserves the championship though. He has made an incredible effort until now and he has been the star of the playoffs also. I agree with the people who think that he will get an MVP prize for the final series. Murray also has been really beneficial lately which alleviates Jokic's load at the same time which is nice to see.  Smiley

But of course I must admit that Gordon did hell of a work in Game 4.  Grin

Nuggets must end this series next game because they have the home court advantage and once they can not defeat Miami heat then for sure Miami heat have a chance to win in the next game because it will go back to their court. And in my opinion if the series will go up to game 7 then this is a marketing strategy of NBA which is they are making their fans got nervous
