I'm quite sure that the Warriors would win either game 3 or 4, I don't see them going 3-1 down in the series, so even if they lose tonight, I might double down on game 4, except there are of course unforeseen circumstances or huge turn of event. Warriors might be a bit short-handed today with both GP II and Otto Porter Jr both listed as questionable, Porter and Payton provided some quality minutes off the bench.

If the series will be tied at 2-2 before game 5, then the Warriors might win in game 7 if this will reach to game 7.
Warriors had a great chance because they are good at home, but let us not forget what Celtics did in the ECF, they beat the Heat on the road in game 7, so they are not a team that we can underestimate as they have a lot of weapons to beat their opponent. I can't wait to see game 3, I like to see how the Celtics would respond after they got shut down by the Warriors in the previous game.
Same here. I will wait for the outcome of game 3. I would probably bet on games 3's loser in game 4.
Iirc, game one was GSW's first homecourt defeat this playoffs? It is really hard to count out Boston Celtics yet. Youth, speed and size are on their side. These coming two straight Celtics homecourt games factors a lot in this series. If it becomes 2-2, then we have a hell of a championship series. My only hope is that there will be no injuries in this championship series.
Exactly! The series is now tied 1-1 and that surely makes it tougher which team to bet for the game later. The Warriors have done pretty well for having a blow out win in the 2nd game after their defeat on the first one but I'm not exactly sure if they can duplicate that win later because they are now playing in the Boston Celtics home. What an interesting series!
Right, up to this point, I don't know who to bet in this game, I'm want the Warriors to win, but we can't just totally ignore the Celtics as this is their first time playing finals at Boston garden after so many years. And as betting favorites, they are going to pleased their fans. So they have a good chance to win in game 3 and took a 2-1 lead. So maybe I will go with them handicap -2.5.
So moving on, what's going to be the pick in game 3.
Celtics have their home court advantage and they are only favorite by 3.5 points.
This time, bets are balanced, look 50/50 on both sides, so I think this kind of line is provided by the bookmakers.
Like stadus said at his last post, Celtics are not as dominant when it comes to home games. They lost 2 of them against the Miami Heat so it's better not to rely on it too much. I may go with the Warriors here again in Game 3, bring that energy on the road or better. If Klay goes hot and the same performance comes out from Steph and Jordan Poole then it will be a monstrous game. Celtics have their home court advantage and they are only favorite by 3.5 points.
This time, bets are balanced, look 50/50 on both sides, so I think this kind of line is provided by the bookmakers.
The crucial part is always the defense, must keep that energy flowing even from their bench.
Well as I have said in our local board, if I'm undecided, then most likely I would pick the underdogs. So I might go with the Warriors here, whether ML or the handicap.
They are not doing good at home, and Warrior seems to thrive on a hostile environment, specially in the Memphis series, the crowd was really into it but they overcome and beat the Grizzlies in that series. So I wouldn't be surprised if they will get the win in this game 3 and continue their momentum.
There will still be an adjustment in the Warriors side because they are not that much familiar in the Boston's home but I would also bet the underdog here because the road team is much more comfortable than the home team who are not reliable when they are playing in their own homecourt and we've saw how the Miami Heat destroyed them.
I believe that Boston will try to abuse the paint, Horford was the key in game 1 win but he was also the weakest player in game 2 because he did not use his advantage against Thompson who is guarding him. He was just waiting in the corner from a kick out pass instead of going inside and dominate the mismatch, posting up Thompson should be the right play.
That's just hard not to notice, that mistake right there is one of the various factors why did they lose in Game 2 and one of which is that Horford can always attack the paint and help Williams in the center and utilize their size advantage instead he's waiting in the corner to try his luck shooting again in downtown. Also Smart was having a hard time despite being a defensive player, they had a lot of mistakes on that game while Tatum was left carrying the team. They need to start working again as a team because the Warriors is also hungry to win.
That's a good thing, Klay is not even himself and yet the Warriors have pretty much dominated the game. I like what they did in the 3rd quarter, again, they have a huge run and they continue their defense in game 2. Curry had rested well also, he doesn't need to come back after the rest in the 4th quarter as their 2nd unit are doing their job very well.
Game 3 is next, I like the chance of the Warriors here, because although Celtics are at home but they aren't dominating the home games based on their record in the last series.
Klay Thompson still gives 11 points to the team not really enough but if you look at the scores they spread it out even Kevon Looney and Andrew Wiggins got double-digit scores of Looney 12 and Wiggins 11, while the Celtics are getting a hard time to the Draymond Green that focuses more on defense, the Warriors is having a Poole Party once again, I guess the Golden State Warriors will likely to have game 3 again and upset the Celtics even further,
I surely hope that it would be the case later because the Celtics is already proven to bounce back after a defeat just like the Warriors and especially if that's a huge blowout. There is still hope for Klay Thompson to get back on his usual rhythm and I expect that will happen later too because the team needed his performance as they are also anticipating that the Celtics will try and bounce back after what happened in the previous game.
If the series will be tied at 2-2 before game 5, then the Warriors might win in game 7 if this will reach to game 7.

I like the value of the Warriors ML 2.36 and I feel the Warriors are undervalued at +3.5, It's going to be an even game I'd say and I don't want to believe that the Celtics have a better advantage for being the home team.
I'll put my props closer to the game tipoff, but I'll like to go with Tatum on assists and Steph on points total, and maybe Wiggins for rebounds.

12 more hours guys. Putting my early bets now as there's not much to do yet.
Warriors ML.
Bet builder - Steph 3's Over 4.5 and Brown Over 2.5.
The other thing that we might have missed in all our discussions in Game 2 is the defensive energy brought by Gary Payton II. Played 25 minutes, didn't have a steal or a block but he was always in front of Jaylen Brown or whoever made the switch. He is questionable for Game 3 but I doubt he want to miss such an important game.

I will never forget that, but Warriors are a different team, they have been in the NBA Finals many times and have won most of the games. Curry will always lead the team to win, and they will make sure they'll win game 7, and I like them because they had the experience necessary to win.

That's a tough thing to say because honestly, this series we're now watching is really interesting and we cannot say that our speculations will come true. The Warriors are good at playing in their home, no doubt but the Celtics are also good playing in road games so it's a tough challenge for both of the teams. Game 3 is still a mystery because we cannot really say who will win because the Celtics aren't reliable at home but the Warriors will surely adjust too because it's not their home. I'm excited to see what would happen next game.
Yes, there's no assurance that a team can outperform their opponents. We don't know how good both teams
will come out from the locker and surprise their fans. Both are capable of winning a road game. We all
witness that and we can't tell that anyone can fully dominate the game.
More on your own decisions in picking your side. Picking up your team is more on how you trust them
and how you believe that they will give you the win that you desire.

Both teams played great defense, and although these team are good offensive teams but this is the Finals and for sure they will play a tight defense. The over/under now is only 212.5, that's very attractive for over but like you said, what if they'll play good defense and it will again result to a blowout win.
It's a 50-50 chance from now on. I just checked my first win Game 1, it was over 211.5 and my loss in game 2 was over 214.5. But if you examine it, the Game 1 was heavy offense from the Celtics 4th quarter attack that made it reach the over score target. I doubt that could happen again since the Warriors learned their lesson already.

Nice tip. Thank you. So I checked and found out they stole 1 piece of road game in every series of this playoffs. We just don't know if it will be game 3 or 4 in this series. They are not doing good at home, and Warrior seems to thrive on a hostile environment, specially in the Memphis series, the crowd was really into it but they overcome and beat the Grizzlies in that series.

It will not be surprising as we know that the Warriors could win games either at home or on the road. They need to steal one game on the road as the Celtics steal one game already, that is to even the series and make the advantage on their favor.

Is this going under or over?
I like to put some bet on the total as well.
Here I have doubts. I am 1/2 when it comes to over and under, now I am doubting to bet in "over" again because of what happened in Game 2. I like to put some bet on the total as well.
If the game ends in a blowout, it will surely be an "under". Maybe I will just pick on the player props instead of it.

i would like to make proper monyline bet to series winner and not per every match
so how do you feel folks, is THIS Warriors?
1-st match i skipped but following often this great topic
2-nd match placed to Curry 27,5 pts
if i dont mistake Tatum did not covered both games?
If you feel the Warriors will win, don't hesitate, per sportsbooks betting odds, the odds now are almost even, so Warriors has a chance to win the NBA Finals. The series now will be shifted to Boston, Warriors also need to win a game to even the series or take the lead, who knows, so just follow what you feel.
Almost equal, unlike the day after Boston won the game 1, Warriors have much higher odds, now that they've tied it up
Boston needs to win at home twice. If they will allow Warriors to take one game, the home-court advantage will
be back to Warriors and knowing how loud the crowd inside chase center it can affect the players' focus.
It's more about how you trust your team and how confident and willing you are to take the risk.
I can't trust Boston at home, by far, they don't have a good record at home because this team can win both home and road games. Celtics should bounce back in game 3 so the advantage will be on them, if they'll lose game 3, they will have to play well in game 4, otherwise Warriors might end the series in their home court in game 5.
I agree! The Boston Celtics don't have many advantages if they play games at their home, their play is almost the same whether they are at home or at the road. As you said, it was already proven that their record at home is not that impressive either so the Warriors might steal 1 game on road just like what the Celtics did in Game 1.
The overall performance of the Celtics earlier was not that impressive and I expected that the game will be much tougher in the 2nd half but the Warriors have carry on leaving the Celtics with 20+ points in gap. They should bounce back next game if they don't want the Warriors to end the series early.
