Who hans't lost their beat on Warriors? ML or handicap? hehehe. Funny though that I didn't watch the game as I was just following the score online because I believed that the Warriors are going to win this one and cover the handicap bet that I made.

I think it the odds are still the same in Game 2 for the Celtics. They are still on the road, so they will be the underdog here. The odds might shift to their favor in Game 3 though specially if they are going to win the next game.

Many have a sure bet for the Warriors thinking that they can beat the Celtics easily, and I really think they nearly did, because the Warriors is pretty dominant on the 1st half until the 3rd quarter, but Al Horford happen and take that game 1 from the Warriors with a confused Stephen Curry,

The Golden State Warriors have underestimated the Boston Celtics just this once, they also made their mistakes in-game and in their game, with the Grizzlies in game 3 they think they can pulverize the Grizzlies because Ja Morant was not on the team, but the Golden State Warriors was wrong because the Grizzlies is a different team without Ja Morant, I think the Celtics here is a different team from winning from the Heat and their Determination was really double while playing against the Warriors but I guess the Warriors will be a different team on game 2 and may win at home court,


Pretty much there will be bettor that could be confused on the situation right now, or they can switch to the Boston Celtics because of that game 1 win, but for me, I still think that the Warriors can make mistakes, and Game 1 was their test Stephen Curry is the only 1 stepping up his game, while others seem to have lost their touch the Golden State Warriors will need to review the game 1 and look further on how they can shift it up, but I think the lack of interest to win was not there for the other Warriors players and needs to wake up because this is the finals and not a regular game,


On stake.com the odds are 1.57 for the Warriors while 2.48 for the Celtics the Golden State Warriors still are the favorite despite game 1 loss, and for me, I think it is really just getting started, the Warriors can be a little out for Game 1 but for me that lost was a wake up call for the other players of the Warriors that the Boston Celtics is a bigger wall to climb,

Same here I lost my Warriors bet but luckily I took part in a promo that saved my bet from losing and stopped me from sweating the rest of the game. I might go with the match-winner again even though the odds are a bit lower than the first game I think the Warriors can't go down 0-2 before going to Boston. What are the odds when you took Celtics to win the series? I'm interested to see the odds difference before the series started and after the upset.

I guess you're not the only one supporting the Warriors to win game one and even with a handicap win. However, as the saying goes, the ball is round and that not the Celtics is the better team specially shooting 3's.

So now it's back to the drawing board for the Warriors, they let this game away, specially entering the 4th quarter. They need to have a good comeback win in Game 2.

Many are expecting a Warriors blowout win in game 2 and I am one of them. They are still huge favorites among bookies with 1.58 on moneyline - still bad for average bettors. I would go with handicap line for GSW -9.5 since it looks juicy at 3.05 right now. That is probably your best chance to recover the amount you have lost in game 1.

I have lost my Moneyline bet to the Golden State Warriors. I actually place a bet for Boston Celtics this series but I'm expecting the Warriors will take the Game 1 win. I bet a decent amount for the Warriors but they ended up choking that good lead entering the 4th quarter.

I'm happy that the Celtics win since I bet on them to win the Finals but it may be better if I didn't lose a good amount of money thinking the Warriors will win in Game 1. I even stopped watching when I see the Warriors are now in a good lead.

It was really an upset for the Warriors and from the gist of it, Al Horford showed in the 4th quarter that the game is not finished until it is finished, gaining momentum while giving positive vibes to the other member of the Celtics, while on the other side the Warriors is looking a bit off and you can see on Stephen Curry's face the amazement that the Boston is now on the lead, and the damage has already been done and in the 4th quarter the Celtics have gained 40 points overall while the Warriors just made 16 points for the duration of the 4th quarter, but for me, it will not happen for the 2nd time, and not in the home court of the Warriors,


I really think the Golden State Warriors will have a different approach in game 2 and from that game, Stephen Curry is the only one hot enough to give the shots while it is not a Splash party without the other 2 splash brothers, hoping they will just shrug those lost and make a pretty big difference on game 2 and I think we really expected much for the Warriors and didn't see the big picture that the Boston Celtics team can win in their difficult times if the Warriors really want to win this they need to get the Celtics a score that they can not return back to,


Well, you can not blame them, I mean us for siding on the Warriors they have shown pretty much huge stats versus the Boston Celtics, if you look at game 7 of the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics, they barely win against them, or maybe getting those stats we didn't see the big picture and there might be some bigger secrets on the Boston Celtics team that we just need to uncover, but yeah Al Horford, in my opinion, can be the man of the night for that game, but I guess this will not happen again in the 2nd game on homecourt advantage the Golden State Warriors needs to press the advance in giving quite the lead for the 2nd game to ensure their win because I think the Warriors was really too confident for the 1st game and underestimate the Celtics on the 1st game,

Me, I will not play safe, if the Warriors will win, I'll probably go with the spread because I don't feel it's going to be a close game, it should be won by a dominant performance of the Warriors and I like to put a bet on Curry as well, 30 points should be easy for him in a revenge game.

1.56 ML vs 1.93 -4.5... I'll take the spread.

They are the better team defensively as the Warriors are more better on the fast break and scoring from outside and mid-range.
Everybody imagined them to win the first game in the series to set the tone at home but it just wasn't meant to be.
Al Horford and Derrick White stepped up in the 4th and dominated them offensively and Golden State were in a state of shock.

Yes that is the plan.
I think everyone is thinking Warriors will bounce back for the next matchup. Curry is not the problem as he started strong.
It was the other teammates of his that lacked any defensive play to stop Celtics from just steamrolling over them and not being able to do anything against them once they got locked in the zone.

Gotta lean in on golden state next game in my eyes.  At home I dont think golden state wants to lose out twice.  Think they will come out muchore focused for all 4 quarters.  Curry proved the defense situation won't affect him, he just needs to play the same way he did in the first q/half.  Taking the money line next game.

Perhaps, I was only lucky. I didn't anticipate the Warriors loss either but I just find the Over more valuable and more probable, luckily it turned out I was right after all.


Steve Kerr played himself, Curry had 3 early fouls and had sat out for a while, there was no reason not to start the 4th Quarter with them, he underestimated the Celtics and duly paid the price for that.

They didn't anticipated what happened back then because Thompson and Durant was injured while Curry and Green was left on the floor doing all the works for the team. Curry attempted to carry the Warriors all the way but the Raptors ate them alive and grabbed the opportunity that they're undermanned.

Jayson Tatum didn't but Al Horford did

Took the same bet and just like the others I expected that they would win earlier because it's very unlikely that the Warriors would lose at home in Game 1, I was so relaxed that the Warriors is doing good in the first half and Tatum looks like he's not on his usual rhythm. But when the 4th quarter came, the Celtics suddenly clutched especially Horford who made consecutive threes.

The reality is that the Boston Celtics are more of a team in the physical section than the Golde State and part of that comeback could also be due to that.

Likewise, Golden State never imagined a comeback of that style and they almost never suffer it because as soon as a team starts to come back they start hitting triples that automatically destroy the little remaining morale

That's my worry, everyone was betting on the Warriors, so the outcome is the oppsite. Warriors does not even won the 1st half, they had a big 3rd quarter run to lead by double digit going to the 4th quarter, but their lack of defense in the 4th quarter gave way to the Celtics' big run of their own.

Steph Curry cannot believe it. They will definitely watch the tape of this game and see to it that mistakes like that won't happen again, especially in the last quarter of the game. The Celtics were outnumbered and as Magic said during the half, exhaustion will be a trouble for them. But it didn't, thanks to Horford stepping up his game big time. They found hope in other players while Tatum was shut down and that's a good display of teamwork.
Marcus Smart gave way to the hot players and didn't go in for 7-8 minutes, iirc.
1/2.
Sunday, Game 2.

It's not unexpected, though the Warriors lost game 1 on their home court, but it's not yet over. This series is a best of 7 series, and home court now does not matter a lot, anyone can win at their home court, so let's see how the Warriors would respond in game 2 as for sure they will make an adjustment to even the series before going to Boston.

Why should be unexpected ? I mean , GSW had fragile games since now and also played weaker teams than Celtic did so it's kinda normal for GSW to not have the same pace , aggression and desire like Celtic because they haven't been properly tested until last night. I also hope that game 2 will look better for GSW but at the end of the day , Celtics deserve to win this year...because they faced and eliminate much more stronger opponents than GSW did.

^^ Yeah, it's very unexpected that the Warriors are going to lost game 1 at their homecourt. They started good at the first quarter and some at the start of the second, but they can't sustain as the Celtics took a 2 point lead at the halftime. And I said that this doesn't look good for the Warriors. So I was not able to watch the second half and when I look at the score, there is it, not sure what happen to the 2nd half, but I will say it was an upset.

Here is the result for today's game and it is not really good actually

Golden State Warriors VS Boston Celtics (Celtics Lead 0 - 1) - LOST

It's a total Bummer that the crowd favorite lost on their home turf, and right now I am really surprised at what happened, the Golden State Warriors is playing a dominating game at the Beginning but a sudden comeback for the Celtics in the 4th quarter, I was really shocked because I really thought that the Golden State Warriors could win this, Klay Thompson Does 15 points, Andrew Wiggins has 20 points while Stephen Curry got 34 points, clearly it is not enough because the Celtics mostly have 2 digit scores, from Jayson Tatum's double-double of 13 assists, and 12 points, Marcus Smart's has 18 points Derrick White has 21 points, Jaylen Brown got 24 points and Al Horford had 26 points solidifying the 1st win on game 1 while the Warriors is on home-court advantage, This goes to show that they can not underestimate the Boston Celtics and surely the team with a great defense prevail,
