Actually, I really like what is happening right now because both teams are giving us a great time watching great basketball games, and I am really into this for me I want to see those two teams in the Finals but I am seeing them cutting each other's throat so early, Because Aside from the Boston Celtics team the Los Angeles Lakers is another team that could surely win the Champion,

My picks for tomorrow's game

Miami Heat VS New York Knicks - GAME 4 (Miami Leads 2 - 1)

The stake odds for this game are 1.55 for the Heat and 2.55 for the Knicks, for now, Tyler Herro, can not play for the Heat, and Udonis Haslem, Haywood Highsmith, Caleb Martin, and Jimmy Butler are all questionable if they can play for the Heat, while Immanuel Quickley is questionable if he can play for the Knicks, right now the Heat are in the lead, again if Jimmy Butler can not play for this game the Knicks will have a chance of winning but I guess the Knicks will somehow make this game a tie, I really don't know what they will do but at least make this game a tie so my picks are the New York Knicks,

Los Angeles Lakers VS Golden State Warriors - GAME 4 (Lakers Leads 2 - 1)

The stake odds for this game are 1.69 for the Lakers and 2.23 for the Warriors, for now, Mo Bamba, Anthony Davis, and LeBron James are still questionable if they can play for the Lakers, while Andre Iguodala and Patrick Baldwin Jr. can not play for the Warriors, for this game and game 3 was really a frustration, there are many turnovers some blocks and missed 3 points by both Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson they are not shakin' and bakin' but on game 4 I really think this is the time for retaliation and a Warriors win so my pick is the Golden State Warriors,

Well, he said it, he made mistakes by hesitating about a pass or a shoot so he needs to be more aggressive at shooting. Deciding moments, and adjusting, I think the 76ers are still good if James Harden plays like this. He still dribbles the ball way too long and that's what must be changed, a lot of turnovers came from those mistakes. The Celtics are probably thinking how to counter them so they must also prepare for the worst to come. Maybe a double team will happen against Harden.

Yeah, I like the optimistic view. Let's just bounce back whenever we lose.
I am also tailing the Warriors' money line because just like the 76ers they will badly need this win to tie the series. They cannot let this go to 3-1 with the Lakers in front or else it will doom their chance to win the series. And I would love to see another Game 7. 

That's the spirit! I lost my bet on the Nuggets too, but you know there's always tomorrow, so bouncing back is the best option. My bet for tomorrow is the Warriors moneyline. I have a feeling that they'll even the series in a close game.

Here are the results for today's game

Philadelphia 76ers VS Boston Celtics SCORE 116 - 115 - LOST

It was an excellent game for the 76ers Joel Embiid played for the 76ers, and just like in game 1 James Harden did it again, he made another 40 points games and win for the 76ers it is really unexpected for James Harden at his age to do something like that and likely the match ends up with overtime and with the combination of Joel Embiid to Hardens Score it will likely form 76 points for both Harden and Embiid while Tatum and Brown likely just 47 points, it was a massive win for the 76ers and a close games  

Phoenix Suns VS Denver Nuggets SCORE 129 - 124 - LOST

A very close game for these two teams and I really expected this but for the Suns to win this game for this game Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray's combined score was 81 but the Combined Score of Devin Booker and Kevin Durant was 72 points still the Phoenix Suns have won the game due to the additional 19 points of Laundry Shamet

I lost my 2 picks but it is alright getting to go bounce for tomorrow's games,

I was surprised that the Sixers were able to pull out a win tonight. James Harden had himself his second great game of the series. Looks like that’s what is necessary for them to get the win. I don’t know if you can bet on them given how inconsistent he has been but I’m glad he’s keeping the series interesting.

Congratulations bro, both players played like monsters. 

1/2 for me.
James Harden giving me the win for the Philadelphia 76ers ML. Thanks to his three-point shot that gave their team a lead of one point in overtime and a good defensive play from Embiid to stop Tatum from scoring in the paint. Good thing that the shot of Marcus Smart lacks time or else it would be a frustrating defeat for the 76ers.

The Nuggets bet lost. It's mostly Jokic who is doing the offense and I saw him very exhausted and also frustrated and even pushed the Suns owner Mat Ishbia. I think it's not his fault because he felt someone pushed him too and he just reacted to it, the guy who did the push was ejected from the court.
53 points for the Joker but Kevin Durant is just too much to handle, especially with Booker on his side.
Booker was also phenomenal at 36 points with 14/18 field goals. Amazing. 

Congratulations to all who win today.

∆ K. Durant 25+ points / K. Durant 5+ rebounds / D. Booker 25+ points / D. Booker 5+ assists @1.80 ∆   won


I'm running this play again, with slightly lower odds compared to Game 3, but i feel confident it will hit again. The Suns will need both Durant and Booker to score a bunch if they want to tie the series. Durant didn't have his best game despite scoring 39, and Booker is quite simply unguardable most of the time...not sure those traps/doubles from Game 1 work anymore, he's figured out how to attack them.

They were able to win on the road twice in their series against the Kings, maybe they could be able to win on the road as well against the Lakers. I am sure they will be able to win on the road when the game matters.

---

Was able to get a good odds on Boston Celtics on the 4th quarter while they are down by 8 points. They are tied now, and my bet is looking good. The hustle of Jason Tatum is paying up for the Celtics. He is all over the floor. His rebound, defense and decision making pushed the Celtics to tie the game against the 73ers.

Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets
The Denver Nuggets will take on the Phoenix Suns in Game 4 of their Western Conference Semifinals tonight at Footprint Center. The Suns will try to avoid falling into a 3-1 hole but without Chris Paul, it might be difficult for them. They still have Durant and Booker to push their team but Jokic and the rest of the Nuggets are really strong this year. I am taking the Nuggets to win this game and complete the series when they return home on game 5.
Suns key injuries: Chris Paul(groin) out

This is turning into a disappointment for the 76ers as it seems. They are about to let a 9-points lead go down the drain. Such a big chance and now it is coming down to a heartbeat final in the 4th quarter. I didn't expect that after the first half of the game. The worst part for the 76ers is that they gave away their home advantage so easily. That shouldn't have happened and now Boston can improve their starting position for the last games so much. That doesn't look very promising for the 76ers.

Woah, and now they scored the equalizer with less than a minute left, ok I'll give it a second before I conclude with some final words.

---

Ok this has been a breathtaking ending. I think that sums it up quite well 

This is what I don’t understand to the fans. They will bash if the player can’t defend properly someone without even considering who is that player. Jokic is a 2 time MVP and carrying Nuggets for many year while Ayton is still just a rookie and needed a lot of experience. Ayton is not a playmaker like Jokic so it’s obviously that they are no match.


Sixers beg to disagree. They are now on the lead with Harden aggression. I think the game will be tied because Sixers seems motivated to get this win.

My picks for today's game

Philadelphia 76ers VS Boston Celtics

the stake odds for this game are 1.90 for the 76ers and 1.90 for the Celtics, and Joel Embiid is questionable if he can play for the 76ers while Danilo Gallinari can not play for the Celtics, it is now game 4 the Boston is in the lead of 2 - 1, for sure the Celtics will likely want to finish this quick, for this game Joel Embiid will surely have a hard time against its team if he got injury so my pick is the Celtics,

Phoenix Suns VS Denver Nuggets

The stake odds for this game are 1.85 for the Suns and 2.00 for the Nuggets, and Chris Paul can not play for the Suns while the Nuggets doesn't have any injuries, for this game Kevin Durant need to do more than that to win this game against the Nuggets, so for this game I think the Nuggets will win this the Nuggets is on the lead and so my pick will be the Denver Nuggets,

New York Knicks is not really a bad team in fact they can surely win against the Miami Heat that is if Jimmy Butler will not play the game and even though the Knicks is a decent team you can also say the same with the Miami Heat right? but for Jimmy Butler to play like this is really unfortunate for the Knicks to be pitted against the Heat in the Semifinals for sure the game is not finished the Knicks can surely be great

Picks for the game today, for NBA 2023

Philadelphia 76ers(+115) VS Boston Celtics(-154)

The game will take place at Wells Fargo Center and the 76ers will go up against the Celtics in game 4 right now Joel Embiid is doubtful if he can play for the 76ers while Danilo Gallinari has a knee injury and can not play for the Celtics, for this game if Joel Embiid can not really play they this is going to be an easy win for the Celtics, but for me, my pick is the Boston Celtics,

Phoenix Suns(-170) VS Denver Nuggets9(+145)

The game will take place at Footprint Center and the Suns will go up against the Nuggets, in-game 4 right now Chris Paul can not play for the Suns, while there are no injuries for the Nuggets, for this game even though it is the home court of the Suns, I am still going with the Denver Nuggets I think they have a huge chance in winning this,

I like the Celtics and the Suns tonight but I am a little worried about the Suns. DeAndre Ayton doesn’t seem happy and it seems like he’s getting a lot of harassment on social media and the news that could be affecting him mentally. Not what you want in the guy going up against the Joker. Boston I’m more confident about as they look ready to put the Sixers away.

Steve Kerr should be worried and careful because he is the last man standing among the coaches who have won their respective franchise a ring in the last 5 years. Starting with Nick Nurse, Frank Vogel, and then recently, Mike Budenholzer has been fired.

As per rumor, it was said that Giannis Antetokounmpo played a major role in firing Mike and was backed by the management for failing to give adjustments and failed to call a much needed timeouts in Game 4 and Game 5.

For which I think that's why Green should be in the hardwood frequently because he is much more experienced when it comes to games like these and Kevon Looney is still struggling to make some right adjustments but the catch is, Green certainly can't do Looney's rebounding skills and the Lakers were smart enough to target Green to maximize his fouls.

Probably ly not a bad bet on Miami but as a knicks fan I gotta think they have it in them to win one on the road.  They have been a good team on the road all season.  I say they need to go back to their rotation they used all season with grimes starting and hart coming in off the bench.  Start q2 with quickly and obi.  Can't be worse than what this new rotation is doing.

The Mentality of Going to Game 7, it is surely something about playing at home than playing away, and most Warriors are adapting to that kind of situation that is why they are saying that Stephen Curry is at Clutch the time they are on the away game or if the situation to be like that is needed, but the other Warriors are not, sometimes emotions make good adrenaline that stimuli your brain to do the impossible feat, well we are only on game 3 and we can not say for sure that the Lakers is winning this semifinal games we just have to wait and see maybe this will continue until game 7,


Miami Heat(-185) VS New York Knicks(+160) - WIN

Jimmy Butler did his best and the Heat was skyrocketing with points the Knicks can not do a thing when Butler is around there Jalen Brunson can not do a thing about the Miami Heat,

Los Angeles Lakers(-150) VS Golden State Warriors(+130) - LOST

the Warriors just have their bad game and this is it there are many turnovers and if the Warriors' turnover exceeds 15 and up then they will likely lose the game for sure and I really don't know why the ref always calling a free-throw for the Lakers while the Warriors just have limited calls but it was really the Warriors lost,

Lost my bet, anyhow, I agree that they are somewhat frustrated and this is similar to game 1 like in the free throw department. So the Lakers adjusted very well in this game 3 and surprisingly enough, are now leading the depending champs. It's not like the Warriors hasn't been in this situation, but this is a different team that they are facing, not like the Kings who doesn't have the experience.

And I'm feeling that the Lakers might pull a upset here, it could be done in 6 games.

But game 7 is not that bad though, the Warriors need to win the next game, it's going to be a must win for them.

Bad officiating plus frustration from the Warriors equals disaster for their whole team which means the Lakers winning. 
37 freethrows versus 17 of the Warriors, yes, that's just like Game 1 all over again. Let's see at Game 4 what else Steve Kerr's secret weapon will shock us. They must find a way to stop Anthony Davis.

Later.
Philadelphia 76ers - Boston Celtics‍ - Philadelphia 76ers ML The 76ers would not want this too far as 3-1 so they better win the game or it will be difficult to come back. Not that many teams have returned from that deficit.

Phoenix Suns - Denver Nuggets‍ - Denver Nuggets Adjustments. Coach Malone should have some ideas on how he can defeat the Suns again and steal one game in their home. Murray played well in Game 3 but they lacked the defensive capability to stop KD and Booker.

Let's wait and see how the Warriors will adjust in Game 4. We have been criticizing the Warriors' small-ball style, but we cannot deny that they have been successful with that roster. It's clear that they got blown out by the Lakers in Game 3, but just like in Game 2, that doesn't necessarily dictate the outcome of the next game.

What I always believe is that the Warriors are the defending champions, so I'm sure they won't easily give this series to the Lakers in case they don't succeed. If the Warriors can't even the series in Game 4, then their chance to win is very slim, making Game 4 a must-win for them, especially because it's a road game.

Sorry mate we lost and it was frustrating the Referee won the game, it was really frustrating and laughable at the same time it was the Warriors versus the Referee again, in Game 1 this has to happen aswell, and it is like the official really don't want the Warriors winning over the finals,

Here are the result of my picks and it is not really great,

Miami Heat VS New York Knicks GAME 3 Tied 1 - 1 SCORE 105 - 86 - LOST

And just as I thought Jimmy Butler have played the game from start to finish the Miami Heat is in the lead, this game and it was not a great game for the Knicks where they were murdered by the Heat, Bam Adebayo had a double-double of 12 rebounds and 17 points, Max Strus 19 points, and Jimmy Butler got 28 points, it was a great run for the Miami Heat,

Los Angeles Lakers VS Golden State Warriors GAME 3 Tied 1 - 1 SCORE 127 - 97 - LOST

This game result was so frustrating and yeah I know that the Warriors has a bad game while on the road, and they got more turnovers than the Lakers, they surely need more rest, but it was really frustrating, in the 2nd Quarter when the game stops for the Warriors, game 1 free throws for the Lakers was 25/29 while the Warriors got 5/6, while on game 3 it happens again Lakers got 28/37 Free throws while Warriors got 12/17 free throws, it was really frustrating and sad what is happening, D'Angelo Russell and Lebron James, both got 21 points and Anthony Davis has a double-double of 13 rebounds and 25 points,
