This is one of those matches that you know are gonna go in 7 games. Denver looks really good,but Phoneix with Durant is something else and i think this will be intresting to watch. Im expecting lots of close games. Also didnt expect Lakers to win the series against Grizzles that was a big win for the Lakers after barely making the playoffs

Few hours from now, the Phoenix Suns and the Denver Nuggets will have their first game with each other in the 2nd round (Semis) because they are the first ones who finished their respective series in the West. While the Lakers just eliminated the Grizzlies recently and they are now on a waiting game for the winner of Warriors vs Kings.

Only 1 game for today but I won't let this game slide. Nuggets will host the first two games.

Denver Nuggets -2.5 vs Phoenix Suns - Final tip-off revealed that both teams are healthy and no injuries listed beforehand. Good luck!

For me, the Phoenix Suns are just overrated because of Kevin Durant's presence with the team but I won't argue with that even if the bookies will list them as the favorites to win this whole series because that will be a nice present for us bettors and personally, I surely would love to take full advantage of the juicy odds while the Denver Nuggets are still the underdogs on their lists.

I think Ayton will be able to rise to the occasion and keep Joker from going absolutely insane like he did last series.  You also have to figure in that Jokic isn't 100%.  Denver wasn't even sure if he would be able to play in the final two games of the series, so that has to be taken into account a bit as well.  I actually think both teams are full of talent and this will be a great game.  I'm sort of thinking that Denver will be able to take game 1, just because the Suns lack experience playing together, but I don't think Denver wins this series without an injury to Durant, Booker, or Ayton.  If those three can stay healthy and adjust to what the Nuggets are doing, I think Phoenix takes this series in 5-6 games.

Yeah Denver is getting oddly disrespected a little.  They still have home court advantage.  I think Suns are the trendy pick once they landed Durant.  I'm betting on Denver to start the series.  It's going to be a tough cover for the Suns trying to cover jokic.  I like the over in this as well.  Think it won't be much of a defensive battle.  Beat offense wins this series.

In the Suns vs Nuggets series, the sportsbook odds heavily favor the Phoenix Suns, but I'm not going to fall for that because I believe that the Nuggets are built to be successful in these playoffs, and they can at least reach the WCF.

The Phoenix Suns beat the Clippers in 5, but that was when PG and Leonard were out. They beat an undermanned team, but this Nuggets team is healthy, and they have the home court advantage. So, I think being an underdog presents a huge opportunity for the bettors.

The Suns have gotten better because of KD, but honestly, I believe their starters will be worn out in this series and since Durant is already an injury prone player, so I don't trust them.

Yeah, that was unexpected from the Warriors since their home win records were fantastic but now they showed lesser enthusiasm, unlike the Sacramento Kings. Malik Monk was superb, he can throw everywhere and it will still sink in. I like the fact that he is not settling for just 3's, he is also attacking the paint for hesitation moves to work. He played like a star today.

1/3 actually for me as my bet for Over 218.5 Lakers vs Grizzlies was also not reached, thanks to the blowout game and the whole 4th quarter being played by the bench players. If it was a close game, I am sure it will be over than that since the Lakers scored 100 points in just 3 quarters.
Not much of a good night, I'd get it back next game.

That may be the reason why Lebron didn't shake hands with the Grizzlies as he went to the dugout before the buzzer sounded. Just the other year I thought that the young Grizzlies would be a team to beat in the West but I think these guys lack the championship mentality that a superstar must have, can't believe that they were ousted by the Lakers led by the old man hehe.

Speaking of the Warriors, I'll be backing them on game 7, a pressure-pack game for the Kings that I think their knees would buckle.

It was a huge loss for the Golden State Warriors and if this is their game on the road what may happen in game 7 that is in the road aswell, this is going to be a risky situation for them, going back, but at least they still have a chance to advance and I am counting on it to happen, a crucial moment both teams has the same turnovers, 17 for the Warriors and 18 for the Kings, it was a close game but the Kings is always on top of the lead, well, lost both of my bet today, because I have gone with the Memphis Grizzlies against  the Los Angeles Lakers,

Golden State Warriors VS Sacramento Kings (SERIES TIED 3-3) SCORE 99 - 118 - LOST

The Sacramento Kings have surely made their adjustments the team is now consistently moving at a rate where the Warriors had a pretty tough time making defense it was like both coaches are playing chess with their pieces and Mike Brown is getting a good grip right now, but right now because of that pressure that will surely push the Warriors to win this game, Keegan Murray has a double-double 12 rebounds and 15 points, De'Aaron Fox has a double-double of 11 assists and 26 points, and Malik Monk got 28 points winning the game,

Los Angeles Lakers VS Memphis Grizzlies (LAL WINS 4-2) SCORE 125 - 85 - LOST

The Series was closed by Lebron James and the Los Angeles Lakers when they win against the Grizzlies for this game, actually, I was really going with the Lakers but I get a risky decision in going with the Grizzlies, because I want the Golden State Warriors and the Memphis Grizzlies to face each other in the Quarter Finals this season,

^^Boston should have finished this series a lot earlier, its really wonderful to see Hawks took it to 6 games at least, but that doesn't look that  great for Boston for their future, like the next round. However, considering Bucks lost, there isn't really that many east teams left that matters neither, I am not expecting Heat to suddenly be a contender neither, sure they won against Bucks but I think that was it, out in the second round as well.

Let's see what happens in the east, things changed a bit, everyone is shocked about the whole Bucks thing, but Sixers and Boston are still favourites, specially Boston, they were finalists and should be playing decently yet again as well, shouldn't really be a problem for them. I bet they will go to finals if nothing unexpected happens.

Lost my bet on the Grizzlies vs Lakers, but it was fun to watch though. Memphis has nothing to offer.
So there's no Celtics for Ja, no "I'm fine in the West", and the biggest irony of them all, Brooks not respecting Lebron and until someone game him 40? Now he got that 40, 125-85 is the final score. And with that series extended between the Kings and the Warriors, at least the Lakers will have some day-off while waiting for their next opponent. The Warriors are still the slight favorite going into the final game of their series.

Looks like we both went 1-1. Warriors game was not close and the Lakers were not going to be denied. I really thought both games were going to be a lot closer than they were.

Yeah, even they are playing at home with a huge support of the fans, they still show up an off-night,

I can personally agree that it's tough to win 4 straight with a kind of competitor the King was. They manage to push
the series to a do or die game and bring the conclusion at home.

On the bettors side, seems that most of us who believes that Warriors will finish this at home losses either a handicap
or ML or even worse if parlaying it with the Lakers game.

Better luck next game, a matter now if how you trust your instinct with Warriors visiting back their opponent's home court
to try finishing the series or go and have an early exit.

Just really bad game for the Warriors, bad night for them to have this kind of shooting and allowing the Kings to dominate as opposed to the last 3 games of the series. I guess it's really hard to win 4 games in a row against a caliber team like the Kings.

So we will it be, the defending champions, the DNA championship team in them coming off victories in game 7?

Or will the new Kings continue to light the beam and advance next? And for sure they will be the slight favorite now going at their home court.

Unfortunately the Warriors behaved exactly like the Warriors after winning 3 games in a row, they lost the game tonight and heading for game 7 on Sunday, now it's a single game with Sacramento having the home court advantage, it still doesn't mean that the Warriors can't advance to the next strange but I wouldn't rule out the Sacramento Kings after what I have witnessed from them through this series, and should the Kings qualify it would have been worth it.

Golden State Warriors vs Sacramento Kings

The Golden State Warriors are facing the Sacramento Kings in game 6 at Chase Center, Golden State Warriors key injuries: Andre Iguodala (wrist) is out while Sacramento Kings Key injury: Matthew Dellavedova (finger) is out and can not play for the Kings, for this game because it will be on chase center and we all know if the Warriors is playing at Chase Center the impact of their gameplay skyrocket to the roof, that is why I am giving my bet for the Golden State Warriors this time,

Los Angeles Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies

The Los Angeles Lakers are facing the Memphis Grizzlies in game 6 at Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles Lakers key injury: LeBron James (foot) is questionable, Anthony Davis (foot) is questionable, and Dennis Schroder, (Achilles) is questionable, while the Grizzlies key injury: Jake LaRavia (calf) is out Steven Adams (knee) is out, Luke Kennard (shoulder) is questionable, I think the Grizzlies will not allow the Lakers to win this and because of those questionable injuries for the Lakers suffice I think that the Grizzlies could have the momentum for this game,

^
Yeah, 2 games and it was likely a win for the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Lakers or a tie-breaker for the Sacramento Kings and the Memphis Grizzlies,

Now here are my picks for today's game

Golden State Warriors VS Sacramento Kings

The stake odds for this game are 1.32 for the Warriors and 3.55 for the Kings, right now Andre Iguodala, can not play for the Warriors, while Matthew Dellavedova can not play for the Sacramento Kings, for this fight we all know when the Golden State Warriors is playing at home and Mike Brown is pretty much aware of this, that the Golden State Warriors is always coming back in a crucial deficit like this and they did for me the Golden State Warriors are winning this and advance to the Finals,

Los Angeles Lakers VS Memphis Grizzlies

The stake odds for this game are 1.49 for the Lakers and 2.70 for the Grizzlies, Right now LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Dennis Schroder are doubtful if they can play against the Grizzlies, while Steven Adams and Jake LaRavia can not play for the Grizzlies and Luke Kennard is doubtful if he's going to play, for this game I really want the Lakers to win but if the Memphis Grizzlies could take a tie-breaker and goes on and win this and advance to the finals, that is good as well because they will face the Golden State Warriors again, so yeah I would risk this for the Grizzlies to win,

2 games people! And these 2 games could also mark the end of the first round in the playoffs or, we are going to Game 7.  

Golden State Warriors - Sacramento Kings‍ - Golden State Warriors (-5.5) I just don't see the Kings winning in Chase Center. That place is so loud that it will shake even the inner parts of your body. It will probably help make the Kings lose their confidence. I am sorry Kings, I love you but I really wished you didn't face the Warriors in the first round.  

Los Angeles Lakers - Memphis Grizzlies‍ - Los Angeles Lakers (-4.5) Again, I am on the side of the home advantage. This is the part where Lebron James and Anthony Davis will showcase why they are paid better than their teammates. The value! I believe this duo will have a great performance later.
3rd bet: Over 218.5

Good luck everyone.
Edit: @yahoo62278 love the courage going against the Warriors in their home.

Looking for Memphis to show why they're the #2 seed in the West and take out the Lakers on their home court. Lebron and AD will have strong games but I think Ja smells blood.

The Golden state game is gonna go down to the wire. I think the Warriors win at home by by a last second 3.

I'm obviously playing this super risky, but the payoff is great.

I don't buy the idea that it's a good value for the 76ers against Celtics, we probably all can agree that Celtics are the most healthy team in the NBA right now, however, they'll playing against the 76ers with Joel Embiid at about 70-80 fitness level, Brooklyn Nets could have been a walk in the park the 76ers without needing James Harden being great nor Embiid playing very good basketball, and against the Celtics, 76ers are going to need way more than just a red hot Tyrese Maxey help them close games out, or the inexperienced Nets team bailing them out.
