It ironic how it's actually both games that Lowry didn't play the Heat have been able to win so far in this series.

Let's see what the 76ers have got in store today, but Embiid is getting better each game and if he gets it going today it's going to be a long night for the Heat, I don't see an easy win here.

---

I've got Tyler Herro Over 4.5 Rebounds in this game @ 1.78 Odds.

Looks like Ja Morant is out for the entire playoffs.  There goes their shot to get back in this thing.  Golden state favored by 3, might take a flyer on a gritty Memphis win in game 5.  Then probably a blowout back at Golden state.

Even without Lowry in the lineup, i'm taking the Heat -2.5 @1.90 since they didn't play with Lowry in the first two games and didn't have any issues dealing with the Sixers. This time it might be close due Embiid coming back plus the momentum riding from the side of the Sixers after winning the last two games in a row. Also, as the series goes on the Sixers might get desperate to steal a game on the road but I think the Heat should be able to hold and cover the spread.

My pick for tonight.

Miami Heat vs Philadelphia 76ers = Miami Heat win 1,78 odds.

Miami Heat Injuries;
 -  Kyle Lowry will be back on May 12.

Philadelphia 76ers Injuries;
 -

I think Miami Heat will win this game. The odds are good.
Kyle Lowry is injured, but I still think they will win.

∆ J. Butler 30+ PRA / J. Butler 1+ steal / B. Adebayo 2+ ast / T. Herro 1+ 3pt made @1.66 ∆  X

Critical game 5, it's a must win for Miami otherwise series are over in 6. Lowry won't play which i think could be a blessing in disguise, he was a liability on offense in games 3 and 4 clearly not 100%, passing up on good shots and only looking to assist.

Butler 30+ PRA: his usage rate the last two games has been off the charts, recording 44 and 49 PRA, respectively.

Butler 1+ steal: at least 2 steals in each of the 8 postseason games that he has played.

Bam 2+ assists: 2 or more assists in 7/L9 postseason games, 3 or more assists in each of the last 5 home games.

Herro 1+ 3pt: has made at least one 3pt in each game vs. Philly thus far, at home 7/11 @ 0.64%

Here are my picks for Today's game highlighted in green are picks

Miami Heat VS Philadelphia 76ers (Series Tied 2 - 2)

Stake odds for this game are 1.65 for the Heat while 2.30 for the 76ers, right now the Miami Heat had Tyler Herro, Max Strus, Caleb Martin, Gabe Vincent, P.J. Tucker, and Kyle Lowry is questionable if they can play for the Heat, while the 76ers had Isaiah Joe, and Joel Embiid if they can play for the 76ers, for the return of Joel Embiid the 76ers have already tied the Semifinals and this is a crucial game for thee two teams, there are a lot of questionable players for the heat, and Joel Embiid is one of the questions for the 76ers, but I guess the 76ers will push this even though it is the Heat's home turf, they will force an upset with Joel Embiid if Embiid can play for game 5,

Phoenix Suns VS Dallas Mavericks (Series Tied 2 - 2)

Stake odds for this game are 1.38 for the Phoenix Suns, while 3.15 for the Mavericks, right now Torrey Craig, is questionable if he can play for today's game, for the Suns, while Tim Hardaway Jr. can not play for the Mavericks This is a very interesting match and anything can happen, but for this, I think the Phoenix Suns will capitalize a win, I am not so very sure because the Dallas Mavericks have gain momentum in winning, but I guess if the Phoenix Suns are playing at home court, and if we look at the patterns the Phoenix Suns will definitely going to win this,

Mavs +6.5
Heat -3.5
Bets are pure instincts only. Relying on Mavs to cover the spreads if ever they will play at a close game in Suns' hometown or win it if possible.
Miami Heat as I know is one of the best defensive teams in the league so I am expecting them to be lively and full of confidence now that they are back on their turf. Time to show a game like their first two games, the only difference is the 76ers have Embiid now.
Good luck everyone.

The whole main reason why the GSW dumped huge margins in the game 3 is to regain their self confidence and state again that they are the hot Warriors and ofcourse for Klay Thompson. But on the Game 4, I already expected that they will still win again because Ja Morant is already not around with the team and I know that they will try to slack a bit. Now it's already 3-1, I wonder if the Warriors could eliminate the Grizzlies at Memphis.

Grizzlies covered easily.  Don't think anyone knows Memphis was 20-5 without morant, they are a GOOD young team.  So far Grizzlies are 3-1 against the spread in this series.  Knowing everyone overbets golden state I'm gonna ride Memphis until the series is over.  Early line is golden state -3, I'm taking that now with or without ja

Lucky for those who takes during the live games for sure that handicap is much lesser or maybe they are the one who have the underdog  odd

Memphis takes a good lead during the last quarter, the young guns are doing just fine avoiding the rally of GSW, it was only in the final 2 mins

where Curry brings that gunner and the defense of Green and Wiggins help them to escape from losing this home game. Just like what Steph

said in his interview, it's a team effort and without those good defense they will not win the game.

Moving forward for Tomorrow's game, Suns and Miami will be playing at home.

Suns @ 1.39 ML and Heat @ 1.64 ML  good chance to parlay @ 2.28 ??

I bet for the Golden State Warriors last night, and I lost. (Golden -6,5)
We watched a terrible game. Everyone thought Golden State Warriors was going to win very easily, but it didn't.

^^ Yes, most of us who bet on the Warriors to cover the opening line didn't win because from the first quarter, we've seen their form was off. But I still thought that they can cover at the start of the second half. So it's a bad night for most of us who bet on the Warriors.  

We still have the Heat vs Sixers and the Suns vs Mavs games tomorrow so at least we can recoup.

I forgot to input my bet yesterday. Both of them are a loss. The Warriors didn't cover the -10 as they had a bad shooting night although they won the game. The Grizzlies on the other hand, found new hope after using Adams. They might create a new play and use him more, I hope they will as he played really well.

0/2 on my team bets but won a profitable parlay composed of 2 players. Wiggins and Connaughton. Cheers!

Here is the result for the games Today,

Milwaukee Bucks VS Boston Celtics (Series Tied 2 - 2) SCORE 108 - 116 - LOST

The Milwaukee Bucks were on momentum in the 1st half until the 3rd quarter when the Celtics have turned the tables, Brook Lopez made 17 points while Giannis Antetokounmpo made a double-double performance of 18 rebounds and 34 points, but it was not enough with Marcus Smart, and Jaylen Brown both have 18 points while Al Horford and Jayson Tatum both got 30 points, the Milwaukee Bucks just lost their momentum and they could surely win this match, I don't really know what happens but the Boston Celtics Al Horford has just given the Bucks their nightmare, in giving the Celtics edge when another player is getting on with the points,


Golden State Warriors VS Memphis Grizzlies (Warriors Leads 3 - 1) SCORE 101 - 98 - WIN

Credit to the Memphis Grizzlies even without Ja Morant they surely make the game so close, and that was very alarming as a Golden State Warriors fan, but the lack of size was really a big deal in this game and Stephen Curry is still seeing those point where he can shoot safely, This is a really close game, in my opinion, I wish that the Warriors could up their game next time, and it is really alarming for a  team that has three players that are scoring 30 plus point on a game from outside the paint really struggling in making a far lead, without Ja Morant, I think the Warriors need to keep this up until there is no Morant for the Grizzlies,

Warriors won a close game against the Memphis, unfortunately, if you have been on the pre-game at -9.5, it's obvious that the handicapped wasn't covered by the Warriors. And even if there is no Ja Morant, the young Memphis make it a close fight. But the Warriors with their experience as a championship team really showed in this game.

I got the Celtics +1.5 pre-game betting and I'm glad I made that bet.

I feel that Tatum will come back from his poor performance and that's what he and Al Horford did in the fourth quarter. Now it's tied 2-2 a piece and going now to Boston. This could end into a game 7 series for all we know. Congrats to those who got the Celtics tonight. Warriors and Memphis coming up.

I know they were blown out last game but I don't expect 2 in a row like that.  Team is young and will be tough to win in the playoffs but 20+ is a lot even in golden state.  Maybe I'm wrong but I've watched Memphis all year they are a strong team, they almost played better at times without Ja, it's like they know they can't fall back and hope he pulls it out.

The Mavericks surprised me by beating the Suns with team basketball last game.  I don't think that will continue, but as far as tonight goes...  I'm not expecting any surprises.  I think the Warriors win easily over the Grizzlies and the Bucks should be able to take down the Celtics.  Giannis himself seemed to insinuate during the last after game press conference that the refs weren't exactly calling a fair game.  Most likely he'll be able to step up and take care of business tonight.  Without Ja Morant at 100% though, Steph and the Warriors should be able to beat the Grizzlies by 20+ tonight.  Both games on TNT. 

Lately I've had some significant losses in relation to the Suns...

I confess that I underestimated the Dallas Mavericks and unfortunately I suffered some defeats, I believe this serves as a lesson.
Another relevant point is that several friends of mine advised me not to bet against the Mavericks lol 

I'm in with the Bucks too tonight, and I also came across a stats that's worth sharing, every of Bucks full game total in each playoff game this season has played out as "Under"; and the total of tonight is currently at 212.5



Memphis is deep, but I really don't think they stand a chance without him against Warriors, but the ML bet might be worth it since it could be some trap, Warriors haven't done anything special in this series to deserve a -10.5 spread.
