Congrats mate, that was a great analysis as the Celtics easily beat the Miami Heat especially the first half. But even if you bet on the entire game, you will still win because the Celtics have cover +3.5 points from the -10.5 pregame point spread. I think the Miami Heat is done, they lost twice at home, so this game will be over in 5, they are still lucky to have won a single game though.

Anyway, tomorrow I'm interested on betting the Sixers vs Knicks, I think the Sixers are gonna fight for their chance in the series and will avoid to get eliminated, so it's +4.5 Sixers for me.
I appreciate the nice words and Derrick White popped off in the first half and put up almost 20 points, which helped a lot in covering the spread. I agree with you this series is most likely a wrap for the Celtics because the Heat's firepower went down by a lot without Butler.

Best of luck with your Sixers spread. I also think they could cover and likely keep this as close as possible, and it's why I went with the Knicks match-winner instead of the spread.



Edit: Congrats on your Sixers spread, and I can't believe the Knicks threw that game away as Maxey landed some insane shots in the fourth quarter to force an OT win for the Sixers.

What a game for Maxey, aiding Embiid with that back to back basket especially that long 3 that put the game into OT, that's a heroic shot coming a player who really aiming to win, I was in the impression that the game is over and you'll going to take your win, not considering those mistakes from NYK, they've got that opportunity to kill the time and win but the determination coming from Maxey extend their way to force a game 6.

A  mistake that may snatch this series away from NYK, knowing the capabilities of Sixers, if they can push this to another game and have that do-or-die game, the chance is still alive to move forward.

Haven't had that good a run so far so looking for a breakout day here.  Bet all 3 remaining games I didn't touch that cavs game.  Can't figure them out.

Pelicans +1.5, shoukd be a close game tie goes to the home team.  Okc is young amd this might be a tough one

Heat +10.5, they showed last game they are here to play.  Being underdogs by double digits as the home team doesn't sit well with me.  Gimme the heat.

Heat/Celtics over 204.5. I know the unders have hit hard but I think the Celtics score enough to push the heat to push the pace.

Good luck and enjoy the games!

Dam another 0-3 night I'm getting torched these playoffs lol.  So why not 3 more bets lol.

Taking the home Pacers-10.5 with no Dame and no giannis.  I think they will be rudderless and with haliburton he will control the tempo.

Suns -1.5 just like the Lakers think back against the wall they squeeze one out, they have to right? 

Also taking over 213.5.  I think it will be a frenetic pace, and at the end if it's close lots of foul shots.  Can see a 115-110 type of game.

Enjoy the rest of the games and good luck

Finally a positive bet day.  Went 2-1 still need a full night sweep here.  Got 3 in so far here they are:

Knicks -4.5, should be another tight game but with the series on the line if they are up in the 4th I expect 76ers to reach on defense opening up foul shots and easy buckets if they can convert.  Close the series out!

Knicks 76ers under 203.5. Can easily see another drawn out physical low scoring game.  102-95 Knicks win tonight

Orlando +5.5 at the cavs.  Yeah they are away but I think they got the cavs shook right now.  Gimme the streaking team.

Enjoy the games and go knicks!!

I called all the games yesterday but didn't manage to get a post up so I guess it didn't happen.  Today I'm not feeling too great about the games but with Dame and Giannis facing injury issues I think I'm going with the Pacers today.  I also think the Orlando Magic vs Cleveland Cavaliers game is going to be a close one tonight, so I took the Magic + 6.5.  I'm still happy from last night's games though.  That Lakers game didn't disappoint.  I just wish they could have gotten one more shot at it.  I would have loved to have seen that game go into overtime.


Cleveland Cavaliers - Orlando Magic
Handicap (Incl. Overtime)

Miami Heat - Boston Celtics - Miami Heat (10.5) Loss!
New Orleans Pelicans - Oklahoma City Thunder - Oklahoma City Thunder (-3.5) Win!
Denver Nuggets - Los Angeles Lakers - Denver Nuggets (-5.5) Loss! Did not cover. 2 point win.

3 games later. Here are my picks.

New York Knicks - Philadelphia 76ers - New York Knicks (-2.5)
Cleveland Cavaliers - Orlando Magic - Orlando Magic ML @2.65. Risky but I think they might snatch this one.
Milwaukee Bucks - Indiana Pacers - Indiana Pacers (-1.5) Win or go home for the Bucks. The Pacers will probably try to force and end it today.

Good luck everyone!

The only spread i'm liking so far is the first-half spread from the Celtics, they led by 20+ points last game, and i'd imagine the only way Miami keeps it close is if they can replicate the number of threes they made during game two.



I'm also tempted to slam the Nuggets, but it's probably best to catch better odds through live betting because, in all four games, the Lakers take control of the first half (leading by 5+ points).

Congrats with your bet, as Wolves completed the sweep ANT provides them 40points showing his idol that he's now a grown up man who can deliver important basket, that slam dunk which give them extra edge really the highlghts of the game, managing to escape the defense of Beal and dunk it in front of KD that's really something that will hype his name up.
Thanks, and he clutched it up with the threes in the last quarter after the Suns were about to pull away with their lead from the third quarter.

Philadelphia 76ers - New York Knicks - Philadelphia 76ers (-3.5) - Loss! Damn! The Knicks are really strong.
Dallas Mavericks - Los Angeles Clippers - Dallas Mavericks (-3.5) - Loss! This game became more interesting. 
Indiana Pacers - Milwaukee Bucks - Indiana Pacers (-10.5) Won! Covered! Nice!
Phoenix Suns - Minnesota Timberwolves - Phoenix Suns (-1.5) Loss! Adjustments did happen but not to the extent that they can win the game. I am sad for the Suns.

Later, 3 games. Big questions. Will the Nuggets end the series at Ball Arena? Will OKC not give the Pelicans any win and sweep the series?

Here are my picks.
Miami Heat - Boston Celtics - Miami Heat (10.5)
New Orleans Pelicans - Oklahoma City Thunder - Oklahoma City Thunder (-3.5)
Denver Nuggets - Los Angeles Lakers - Denver Nuggets (-5.5) I think they will finish this now. They will have the help of the home crowd to boost their energy and I doubt they will let them down.

Good luck everyone!

1-1 on the 2 picks I shared. let's proceed with the upcoming games.

Sixers -5. loss
Embiid's performance is game 3 was legit. I don't think he'll slow down in game 4, so I'm expecting them to cover the spread and tie the series. I'm thinking of a possible double digit win by the Sixers, this should not be hard to cap. I'm seeing the same scenario on the Cavs vs Magic series.

Suns +1.5 loss
Just like the Lakers, maybe they'll win one game before getting eliminated. I know they have struggled a lot in the past 3 games but this is the only chance for them not to get swept, so I'm betting on them.

Dallas -6  loss
I'm hoping Dallas will stay consistent with what they are doing, have already won 2 straight and it seems like Leonard is not gonna play as he is currently listed as doubtful, they should be able to handle the Clippers especially that their interior offense is already working.

Updated record 8(W)-10(L)..... 44%

Loss all 3 picks, whatta bad day. But as usual, we don't just easily give up, we continue until this is over.

Miami +10.5.. Last game was a blowout win by the Celtics, just like in game 1, I like to see the Miami Heat making adjustment in game 4. I'm hoping it will be a close game so the Heat loss, they can cover with their high handicap.

Nuggets -7.5
This is a no brainer, a close out game for the Nuggets, they should give everything here as they can't afford to take this series back to LA where the pressure could be higher.

Pelicans +4.5
For the last time, I like to see them having a competitive game like they did in game 1.

It looks like i'm the only one hoping for the Timberwolves to sweep since I have them to win (@1.96). I'm not confident about the Suns having the same urgency as the Lakers to win a game, and I think the odds on the Timberwolves are still too good given they haven't kept the margins close. It'd be nice if the Suns could prove me wrong by extending the series to a game five, but i'll always take the Timberwolves knowing the Suns rarely clutch it up whenever they're the favorites.



Congrats with your bet, as Wolves completed the sweep ANT provides them 40points showing his idol that he's now a grown up man who can deliver important basket, that slam dunk which give them extra edge really the highlghts of the game, managing to escape the defense of Beal and dunk it in front of KD that's really something that will hype his name up.

Moving now to the second round and will face another tough challenge, let see if how they will proceed on thier campaign to win a title.

On the other games, Lakers escaped repeating their last time result, extending the series to game 5 and hope that they will continue to extend agaisnt the defending champ, while both Indiana and NYC needed one more win to move forward to their next rounds.
Well he didn't get as many Jalen Brunson had last night with that win over the desperate Philadelphia 76ers  team which are on their last life line in the series.
The 47 points he had from what I recall from watching the game was a new franchise record in the playoffs.

I don't think the Lakers can avoid falling against the Nuggets.
Had my bets on Indiana last night and they didn't disappoint. But still need to win on a multibet props slip.

Wolves was really the play as most bettors are still believing the Suns that could win in game 4. They think that they'll have the same faith with the Lakers, but Durant is not Lebron, so he'll have to be swept. ANT really came up big in the 4th quarter, he has become a very clutch player, not afraid to take a shot when the game is close and Suns have no answer from his aggressiveness.

So moving on, they'll  likely face the Nuggets, I think I'd bet on the defending champ in that game.  Although I think that Wolves had a decent chance of limiting Jokic because they have 2 bigs but they Nuggets are a champion for a reason.


On the other games, Lakers escaped repeating their last time result, extending the series to game 5 and hope that they will continue to extend agaisnt the defending champ, while both Indiana and NYC needed one more win to move forward to their next rounds.

The first round is not so fun, exept for the Sun-magic  and Clippers-dallas series.

Taking the home Pacers-10.5 with no Dame and no giannis.  I think they will be rudderless and with haliburton he will control the tempo.
I'm on the same side. Middleton alone could not carry the Bucks to win on the road, yeah he had a great game 3 but that was it as I believe the defense will be adjusted to him and now that he is the only legit scorer of the team, it will be easy for the Pacers to limit the Bucks. I'm seeing a blowout win by the Pacers here and will finish the series at Bucks homecourt.

Suns -1.5 just like the Lakers think back against the wall they squeeze one out, they have to right? 

Also taking over 213.5.  I think it will be a frenetic pace, and at the end if it's close lots of foul shots.  Can see a 115-110 type of game.

I hope the Suns has not given up the series yet. Durant has to lead this team as he is the most experience in the roster. If they can win maybe at least in the first half as they will probably start strong due to the possible adjustments in this game after their last game's defeat.

I lost my parlay because of the Suns, had won the Bucks +6 but the Suns choose to go Lakers mode, and they even look worse than the Lakers as they looked like a mismatch team to the Wolves. Suns does not have a bench production, I hate to say it but that's the reality.

I was thinking they'll bounce back and have the first win at home but now they are 0-3, and with that, I think I don't have any confidence on this team so I'm not gonna be betting on them in game 4.

There's nothing that they can do against the big man of Wolves, they are really having a hard time and with how ANT is playing that kid is really especial, after Butler I guess ANT is something similar to DWade, he got that big nerve which is not afraid attacking and taking shots, I guess he should continue doing that same stuff with the teo-towers who are also playing at their best.

Suns might suffer the same fate like Lakers, there's no answer against how the opponents are dominating them, tough series but maybe they might win at home, still possible I guess.
The Suns doesn't have a legit point guard, so that alone is already a huge problem. Acquiring Bradley Beal seemed to be  bad idea as he was inconsistent in the regular season and in the playoffs is impact is not the same anymore when he was still with the Wizards. things are really tough for them now mentally, as Durant is known to be a very dominant player, have won multiple champs but was only bullied by the Timberwolves this playoffs.

I think it's time for Curry and Durant to reunite, and make the Warriors a great team again.

If possible that they reunite if Warriors managements are willing to put that huge amount to offer KD the max maybe they can bring back their old glory, though Warriors managements still have that issue with Klays extensions, not sure if they will acquire him back and give him what he deserves being one of the core of this team and manage to help in bringing those titles.

Moving back to their winning chance on this upcoming game, by pride I think KD and Booker will try everything to win a game against the Wolves.

I think the LA Clippers will bounce back for tonight's game. If they lose tonight for sure they will not make the Western Conference semifinals. If it's 3-1, it will be very hard for the LA Clippers to come back.

For me, I think the New York Knicks are going to make it 3-1 and end the series in Game 5 on their home court.

Under 54.5 for Pacers vs Bucks because Dame and Giannis is out for game 4. So I think it gonna be low scoring 2nd quarter.

Wolves might gonna end this series tonight and I think gonna be good scoring for the 1st quarter thats why I go over 53.5 for 1st quarter.

Orlando Magic - Cleveland Cavaliers - Orlando Magic (-1.5) Won!
New Orleans Pelicans - Oklahoma City Thunder - Oklahoma City Thunder (-4.5) Won!
Miami Heat - Boston Celtics - Miami Heat (10.5) Loss!
Los Angeles Lakers - Denver Nuggets - Los Angeles Lakers ML Won!

3/4. Good.
I was right in trusting the Lakers although I am a big fan of the Nikola Jokic. Well, gambling first before him. Money first. Cheesy
But, if we watched the game thoroughly, it seems like Jokic is not in the mood to attack. Not the same way he played in Game 3 where he is obviously trying to win. Perhaps, in his mind, he wants to end it in their home.

Later, we have 4 game and one of them is starting in 15 minutes as of the time of writing.
Philadelphia 76ers - New York Knicks - Philadelphia 76ers (-3.5)
Dallas Mavericks - Los Angeles Clippers - Dallas Mavericks (-3.5)
Indiana Pacers - Milwaukee Bucks - Indiana Pacers (-10.5) I don't like the -10 but I will give it a try. I trust the Pacers could somehow cover it.
Phoenix Suns - Minnesota Timberwolves - Phoenix Suns (-1.5) Risky. But I believe in adjustments.

Good luck!

T. Maxey 25+ points / J. Brunson 25+ points @2.00  X

I had the exact same bet for Game 3, rolling with it again i guess.

Maxey is 3/3 on the series, both FG and 3PT% look solid, usage rate is high, and i don't see anyone on the Knicks roster who can keep up with him, he's such a blur.

Brunson struggled with his shooting in Games 1 and 2, but played much better in Game 3, dropping 39 points. He has nearly twice as many shot attempts as the next guy on the team (27FGA), which alone should be enough for at least 25.

Lakers +4  - win
For the last time, I'm betting on the Lakers to at least cover the handicap in game 4. Adding a small bet for them to win the game, people are talking that the Lakers will be blown out, but for me this is the last chance to bet on them as the Lakers might have a major adjustments on their roster next season.

Miami +10.5 - loss
Bookies still have their trust on the Celtics but I think the Miami Heat will play better at home. Doing the same with the Lakers, adding a small bet for them to win.


Updated record 8(W)-7(L)..... 53%

1-1 on the 2 picks I shared. let's proceed with the upcoming games.
