I'm liking Denver myself tonight. If they can hold Anthony Edwards under 20 again it's over. Jokic showed why he is the MVP in game 5, now he smells blood. GG Twolves.

I don't know. Anthony Edwards said, "see you in game 7" after the last game. I think he's dead set on willing his team to the next round and passed the defending champions. That's how I bet anyway. However, that bet seemed a little boring so I thought I'd spruce it up a bit by making an interesting parlay. So I found an international squash match and bet on Ali Farag to win. This makes the odds a little more palatable while adding a bit of intrigue. Stupid? Maybe. Time will tell.

Minnesota Timberwolves - Denver Nuggets
Winner (Incl. Overtime)
Minnesota Timberwolves

Farag, Ali - Elias, Diego
Winner
Farag, Ali

Odds
2.28

I'm still waiting on the results for Ali Farag's Squash match, but I have high hopes...

I feel like the Knicks are going to try and end things here so I feel pretty good about their odds to win +7.5. After the Denver/Minnesota game I am a little worried the NBA wants to see a game 7, so I'm betting the maximum spread. I don't want to push conspiracy theories or anything, but it sure seems like the NBA has a way of having things work out just how they want (So I bet against it. I'm smart. lol)...

Indiana Pacers - New York Knicks
Handicap (Incl. Overtime)
New York Knicks (7.5)

Odds
1.68

Later, we only have one game.
Here is my pick.
Minnesota Timberwolves - Denver Nuggets - Denver Nuggets ML @2.09 - They broke the confidence of the Wolves, it will not be easy to recover from that. I think it will be different today, adjustments. They will try to stop Jokic but will make a big mistake in the process, Jamal Murray will come out to score for the team.

As others have mentioned, the Nuggets ML is just too good to pass up on for tonight's lone game in the NBA.
I don't think home court advantage will matter for the Wolves as you have said: Timberwolves confidence is broken.
And with that championship teams smell blood in the water and attack without mercy.
(....)

It really seems like a home-court advantage this time. But in game 7, it will be in the home of the Denver Nuggets.
This is a very big challenge for the Minnesota Timberwolves maintaining their momentum on their win tonight.
Well, ball is really a circle which a most of us that Denver will really get this game tonight.

I didn't expect that the Wolves will play that well, I mean after losing 3 straight they bounce back on a win dominating the defending champion. So now the hype is back at the Wolves, I think I'd take the early spread for the Nuggets in game 7 as I can only see it moving upward as the game is approaching. Game 7, i expect it to be a close one but the Nuggets will manage to cover the spread in the end, it's about who will start to have a run first and control the game, and that team will likely take the win.

I can see Jokic going off and that is why I have him scoring a triple-double in this one in my multi-props bet.
If Anthony Edwards wants to prove he can hang to the likes of a Jordan or Lebron as one of the greats to bang in the NBA:
Tonight is the night to show us all what he is made of.

You all asked something of Anthony Edwards, and the ANT Man have answered the call right ?

The Timberwolves have completely dismantled the MVP, and current champions Nuggets here in Minnesota... The series headed for a game 7, and I think we can expect almost anything, if there is anything this series as shown us is that both teams can win games anywhere, on home court and on the road, so game 7 is still anyone's game to win and would be very interesting.

Couple games on tonight, I didn't care to bet on last night's and wish I did.

I took both home favorites here tonight. Boston -15.5. Big spread but it's a closeout game Boston gonna ball hard all 48 minutes I like them in a blowout. Then okc. Rooting to see an okc and Timberwolves comf final. Something way different than we are used to. Okc by 4.5 points

Lost both and the Celtics by a half a point was a tough gambling loss. Tonight we only have one game on and it shoukd be a great one. I took the home wolves team -2.5 purely because I want to see a game 7 here. Small bet but I took a hey over in this game. 205.5 I think with a do or die game these teams will press.

Good luck and enjoy the game folks.

I'm on the same pick too, the odds for the Nuggets match-winner are too nice, they've already pulled off two road wins so there's no point in doubting them.

The Timberwolves can still make this close since elimination games can sometimes bring out the best in certain teams and it's always possible for the Nuggets to have a bad game like the ones during games 1 and 2.

Game 5 - Boston Celtics - Cleveland Cavaliers - Cleveland Cavaliers (15.5) - Won! My plus 15.5 was the exact number! Lucky! That's why I said those who got the +17.5 are very lucky indeed. It's the safest bet yesterday.
Game 5 - Oklahoma City Thunder - Dallas Mavericks - Dallas Mavericks ML @2.50 - Won! I am glad the other players of the Mavericks stepped up their game. PJ Washington is very consistent in providing points for the team and I wish he can continue that. OKC should stop the hack-a-Lively strategy, that young guy is getting better with his free throws.

I'm taking the underdogs today even though there's a good chance that Cleveland gets beat by 40. When you get a +17.5 on the game it's hard not to take the bet. I was basically flipping a coin whether to take Cleveland +17.5 or Boston -16.5. I think they both have about equal chances. Either Cleveland will make it a game or they won't. I'm guessing without Mitchell there are going to be guys wanting to leave their mark on the season. We'll see... I also think the Mavericks have a good chance at beating the Thunder, so taking them +5.5 actually seems like the safer bet to me.

Boston Celtics - Cleveland Cavaliers
Handicap (Incl. Overtime)
Cleveland Cavaliers (17.5)

Oklahoma City Thunder - Dallas Mavericks
Handicap (Incl. Overtime)
Dallas Mavericks (5.5)

This turned out to be a pretty good bet. I was worried for a bit at the end of the Cavs game but they came through and narrowly beat the spread for me. A nice consolidation prize considering their season is now over and they’re likely to lose their star player. Still, can’t hate on beating the spread by 2 points on a +17.5.

I'll back the home favorites today to cover the spread (OKC -4.5), after that collapse from the Mavs in the last game, i'm losing faith in their players to step up and fill in the gaps.

If Luka doesn't show up again, OKC could take over to lead this series and SGA will probably deliver another big performance.

Edit: What a letdown from OKC, most of the players missing their shots while the Mavs are stepping up big time.

Game 5 - New York Knicks - Indiana Pacers - Indiana Pacers ML - Loss! - The Knicks played really strong here. If homecourt advantage will always affect the game, I guess the Pacers will have a low chance to win this series.
Game 5 - Denver Nuggets - Minnesota Timberwolves - Denver Nuggets (-1.5) Win! - Strong Nuggets, they truly dominated this game through defense against Antman.

2 games today. 1 game already starting. Here are my picks.

Game 5 - Boston Celtics - Cleveland Cavaliers - Cleveland Cavaliers (15.5) - Lucky are those who got the +17.5. Nice one @OgNasty. The Celtics could end the series on this game. They can smell blood but the Cavs would probably resist.

Game 5 - Oklahoma City Thunder - Dallas Mavericks - Dallas Mavericks ML @2.50

Good luck everyone!

I also had the Knicks as well with the -1.5 and it didn't disappoint those who bet on them ML or the handicap as they covered it with a lot of spare if you bet on them pre-game. Jalen Brunson was on fire in this game with a huge 44 points.

So now it goes back to Pacers homecourt. And I think we might see a game 7 in this series.

Most probably we will see a game 7 in this series if the pattern will not break. These teams are good when playing at their homecourt. Too bad that i bet for the Pacers in this game because i thought that the Pacers has the momentum and also think that Brunson was hurt but he was on fire tonight scoring 44 points.

Congrats on the mate, hope i can tail on your bet tomorrow.

Pacers got locked down because they were scoreless in 7 minutes in the 4th. The game could have easily went over if they scored at least 10 points in that minutes they were scoreless. It's a great series, you can see the competitiveness of both teams and since they are both good at home, then just don't break that, and we know the drill in game 6. I'm putting bigger bet in game 6 and if I win, I'll maybe pass game 7.

But still in that game, although the score reflect that the Knicks win huge, there were moments that they keep coming back, they've erased that big lead at the start of the 3rd quarter and make it a single digit at 7 points. And then they Knicks make a run pushing the lead again to double digits. But the Indiana make another huge comeback and then the Knicks reply. It will be in Pacers homecourt next game, and this series pattern is homecourt win, but who knows, as what @ rdbase said, maybe it will break the pattern like the Nuggets vs Wolves and this series ending in 6 by a big win by the Knicks at Pacers homecourt.

Denver broke the pattern in their game last night winning on their home court because it was a road warriors series before that having the away team win both their games.
Think that Minnesota has lost their energy and spent it too early because they didn't look like they did when the series started. Losing by 15 points is a defining margin to showing they are running out of steam in these playoffs.
And relying on defensive plays takes up more of that energy than offensive plays.

Anyone who thinks that the NYK will make a comeback in the next game as MSG?

I have them at -1.5 this early at 1.88 odds, I think despite that they lack personnel, they will have to bounce back in this game and the Villanova boys will have to find a way to win and get back the momentum in this series.

They struggled without OG, if he will not play, I think the Pacers will win. The confidence of the Pacers now is on the roof after they beat the Knicks by blowout last game, so I think they'll likely take the win. Currently the Knicks are -2.5, but this is already game 5, they might face the fatigue as they are undermanned and have not been using their bench effectively.

But it this game was taken over by Jalen Brunson and a whole team effort from the others, specially Isaiah Hartenstein who grabbed 17 rebounds. And so even if they are fatigued, it's their homecourt, with some of the Knicks great: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNCbwhP-raY

So there's no way for the Knicks to lose this one in their homecourt. And good for those who bet even higher handicap=higher odd wins. Congrats.
