Before the game starts I would like to put my picks for today's game

Denver Nuggets VS Golden State Warriors

Stake odds for this game are 2.45 for Nuggets while 1.55 for the Warriors, while Jamal Murray, and Michael Porter Jr. can not play for the Nuggets while the Golden State Warriors don't have any injuries but James Wiseman is the only one out for the season, I surely don't want to sound bias in this but I guess the Denver Nuggets is really shocked in what they are facing right now because the Golden State Warriors has a death line up and the first team to taste it was the Denver Nuggets, so I will be sticking with the Warriors.

Atlanta Hawks VS Miami Heat

Stake odds for this game are 2.06 for the Hawks while 1.80 for the Heat, right now Lou Williams can not play for the hawks while Clint Capela is questionable if he can play, and while I think that the Heat doesn't have any injuries only questionable once, but I think they will surely play with this one the Miami Heat is on the lead right now and the Hawks has 1 win, with 2 for the Heat, right now I think the Miami Heat can win this match in my opinion, so I am going with the favorites.

New Orleans Pelicans VS Phoenix Suns

Stake odds for this game are 2.13 for the Pelicans while 1.75 for the Suns, right now the Suns are in the lead but right now and Zion Williamson can not play for the Pelicans while Dario Saric and Devin Booker can not play for the Suns, although the two teams are very close when it comes to their last game and the Phoenix Suns are leading without Devin Booker I surely think that the Suns will pretty much have a hard time with the Pelicans, I think I will go up against the favorites and go with the Pelicans.

Same here, also thought that today will be a different game but unfortunately it was worse than the 2nd game. It's the Boston Celtics who won the game and actually while I'm watching it, it's like that the Celtics are always having a good run and turns out to be an easy game for them because KD and Irving is well guarded already. Tatum poured an easy 39 points while KD was so depressed why he cannot make a clear shot, yes he was not the same KD that we knew.

Here is my result for my picks Yesterday, pretty much I have lost all of my picks and now I'm struggling to see how this works

Toronto Raptors VS Philadelphia 76ers SCORE 110 - 102 - LOST

I really thought that the Philadelphia 76ers will be in total domination and could never retaliate back but the Toronto Raptors have gained the upper hand and turned the tables in the 2nd quarter, even though Tobias Harris has a double-double performance of 11 Rebounds and 15 points and Joel Embiid had 21 points while James Harden got 22 points it was not enough with Raptors Gary Trent Jr.'s 24 points combined with Pascal Siakam's 34 points leading the game for Raptors victory,


Brooklyn Nets VS Boston Celtics SCORE 103 - 109 - LOST

Well, I really thought that the Nets will finally get back from the Boston Celtics but right now 1 more win for the Celtics and they are going up, and bye-bye for the Brooklyn Nets, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant are not doing so good both have 16 points while Bruce Brown Jr. was the one who's getting the Nets back with 26 points, while Celtics Jaylen Brown, got 23 points and Jayson Tatum got 39 points another win for the Celtics,


Minnesota Timberwolves VS Memphis Grizzlies SCORE 119 - 118 - LOST

This is really a close match and I should have bet for the Minnesota Timberwolves but I have thought that the Grizzlies might have an idea to get rid of the Timberwolves for good but the momentum was gotten by the Timberwolves, and likely Ja Morant have double-double performance of 15 Assist and 11 points, Dillon Brooks has 24 points and Desmond Bane got 34 points while Timberwolves Karl-Anthony Towns have a double-double of 14 rebounds and 33 points, while Anthony Edwards got 24 points making the Timberwolves win this game,

Certainly, Booker is not the one who controls the outcome of the game because most of the active roster is also an efficient to their role and almost everyone can step in when it needed the most. I mean, they cannot be seating for a long time as #1 seed in the Western Conference if they are not that talented. Pelicans have stepped up their game but they still cannot dominate the Suns even if they are undermanned, that's how tough they were.

Bucks vs Bulls have started already, Bucks already started to have a good lead in the first and they are playing good defense.

But it is still in the first so anything can happen, live betting for the Bulls +5.5 @1.90 currently.

My other picks are:
Miami -1.5 @1.91

Yeah, only just a few games that is predictable, but then the defense was different in the last 2 games of the series so it's really very unpredictable.

I got the same bet with the Bulls +4.5 - I think they will have to bounce back from a poor performance from the last game.

Unpredictable. Correct. And that's the way it should be.
I may lose my bets but I am glad I will become a part of it even just on the betting side. 
4 games baby.

Phoenix Suns -3.5.
Miami Heat -2.5
Nuggets +5.5 - Just to not make this look bad and for entertainment purposes. Prolong the games for ticket sales.
Chicago Bulls +4.5 will begin in 50 minutes as of writing. Good luck.

This season's playoff games are so unpredictable at least for me. I'm losing most of my NBA bets these past few days. After the regular season I find it hard to believe that the Brooklyn Nets are the 3rd favorite team to win the championship. Now they are struggling even in their own homecourt and is down at 0-3. 

I also thought that only GSW in the east-west top fours will lose the first round as I highly favored Jokic and the Nuggets despite the absence of Jamal Murray. And now GSW is looking for a clinical 4-0 at the road. 

It's obvious that Durant may have lost some of his speed, as evident in this series. I mean the Celtics is clamping him down and he is very frustrated because he can't do anything about it. Same here, I thought that they will have the mentality to at least win at their floor, but Celtics didn't gave them the chance.

I really thought the Nets would try to win that game even if it kills them. But Durant was defended too well and he was getting frustrated about it.
That's not the KD that I had known before. He will do anything just to get that shot that he wants, proving no one can defend him with his length and shooting capability.
Loss my bet because of it and the same with the Grizzlies.
Only Mavs gave me a win thanks to the early bet when Luka was not yet confirmed to play.  

Great catch, Boston wins and grabs that 3-0 lead in this series, KD still having a hard time

tough defense of Boston makes the home team suffer, one more win for Boston to move forward, the core trio
of Tatum,Brown and Smart provides decent numbers. They are working together and allow everyone to help. Ball
movements and respect with the players who's playing alongside with you is what they are using as advantage
against the Nets. Congrats!

This Grizzlies vs Timberwolves game is coming down to the wire! Great game! I love see Karl Anthony Towns and Ja Morant’s Dads sitting next to each other and rooting for each other’s sons even though they’re on opposite teams. You don’t see that too often and it’s a great reminder that these are people with families who understand that life is more important than winning. If you’re near a television and you are reading this post in the next couple minutes, turn on ESPN. The last couple of minutes of this game are going to be great to watch although it’s looking like the Timberwolves might have a little momentum on their side.

At least you were able to dodge a bullet, I'd say! The Nets don't look anything like a team that's completing in the playoffs, no clear approach or solutions to their problems on the court, the team chemistry is slightly greater than zero, one minute you're depending on Drummond, the next Claxton is your go to guy, it's been each guy trying to step up or pull the strings. KD have been really tamed in this series, sloppy possessions, turnovers (although a lot can be attributed to Celtics defense), but for the Celtics, it's been a terrific team chemistry and collective effort in both ends of the court, each player knowing their role and executing it with great precision.

I don't see the Nets getting back here tbh, all the Celtics needs is a win from 4 games, how hard could that be ?

I can't place a bet on live bet between Boston Celtics and Brooklyn Nets as Stake is currently having a problem.

Want to risk for Broolyn Nets Moneyline as they are behind now. I wonder what's the odds for them now. I'm really waiting for Celtics good lead before placing a bet on the Nets to have a much better odds as they only have @1.6 in pre-game.

Not a Brooklyn Nets fan but this Game 3 is important to them that's why I know they will push for a win no matter what. Unfortunately, I can't place a bet.

I'm riding on the Boston Celtics against the Nets +1.5 at 1.93 live betting. I know that this is going to be a dog fight because the Nets need to stay alive in this series and with two of the best players, Durant and Irving. But the Celtics has the momentum in this game, with a good 2-0 lead and seems to have the defensive players to stop either Durant and Irving. They are leading 5, end of Q1.

My pick for tonight.
I hope I win tonight.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs Memphis Grizzlies (-1,5) = 1,81 odds

Minnesota Timberwolves Injuries;
 -

Memphis Grizzlies Injuries;
 - Dillon Brooks probably
 - Santi Aldamsa will be back on 26 April
 - Killian Tillie will be back on 29 April


Memphis Grizzlies played very well in the last game and they won the game.
I think Memphis Grizzlies will win this game.

Honestly, I like Jazz to win here since I have a bet of 4-2 Mavericks to win the series lol. I placed that bet when Mavericks is downed 0-1 that's why I got the good odds compared to currently that it's now only @1.4. But since the handicap for the Mavericks is tempting, even though I hope Jazz will win, it might end up in a close game. Like the series to become 2-2 then Mavericks will finish it on their 2 next games home and away. Luka is Back!

Anyways, the game is close, and maybe advance congratulations to those who pick Mavericks handicap. I really expect that the game will be close.

99-97 Mavericks with over less than a minute to go. If ever Jazz will lose, I hope they can be able to bounce back next game for the possible 2 winning bets for me. The game is still not finished though. It's really a close one!

EDIT: 100-99 Dallas Mavericks. Damn Intense! 11 seconds left.
EDIT2: 100-99 Utah Jazz Won! The Mavericks almost won the game though.

^^ Got their win already without Van Fleet, at least they got 1. But it will be the Sixers in this series. But didn't see this coming, lost my bet as I was on the Sixers at handicap.

I'm on the Dallas +6.5, and it was a close game against the Jazz again.
Last 2 minute of the game, this will be interesting outcome as this series is always fun to watch.

I'm afraid that Luka's return might do more harm to the Mavericks than good at this point, I love the way they've played without reliance on a particular person to dictate the pace and dynamics of the game, I hope they don't build the whole game around Luka, that might be their undoing.


It's 5 minute into the 4th Quarter and it's a 8 point game with the Raptors ahead, I don't see Raptors getting back into this series especially without VanVleet, but maybe getting a win might do a bit well for their ego and fans.

I've got the same bet as the one in game 3, minus Gobert's rebounds...D. Mitchell 25+ pts / B. Bogdanovic 25+ PRA @1.68 X

What i said the other day is still valid, Bogdanovic has been consistent throughout the series, with Mitchell getting the bulk of the shots on offense, really not worried about those two.

Though if Utah wants to turn things around they need to stop giving wide-open 3s to guys like Kleber and Bertans, one of the keys to this game:

Luka is set to return today... 👀
