Hmm I don't get it why Miami is favorite today even if we're about to assist to have at least 10k people in the arena, I still can't bet on Miami to win so therefore I'm taking Miami 2nd half and Bucks ML. Who could I bet on Miami when Butler is simply getting canceled by Giannis and Bam with Lopez have the same problem so who could shot for Miami ? The only situation where this game could go in the favor of Miami would be that to take the pressure from Bam and Butler and really put the other players into the game to score points as those only 2 guys cannot win a game against Bucks.

I think milwaukee bucks will get a break today over Miami. Last time they destroyed them and i think they will win again as well.Giannis is just a monster of a player and i dont know who can stop him for real. Miami will need to hit unreal to win this

You are right, it was the same story in game 2, Mami could not shot the ball even open shots, it looks like they are playing under a lot of pressure. The shooting display of Robinson is not shown here, I think it's a complete sweep and the Bucks will be successful for their revenge.

I'm wondering what's the odds in game 4.

Pick of the day for me is the W for Suns. Chris Paul had bad time watching most of the 4th quarter in the second game and i expect him to get back and be the key player in the game. We saw Phoenix to battle even without him and in fact they weren't far from pulling a 2-0 lead. With CP3 on the floor I think that Suns will get back the homecourt advantage.

Yeah, he is listed as probable but I'm sure he is going to play in game 3, the question is how is that shoulder injury though. We have seen him being affected by it in game 2, having a hard time to dribble the ball without feeling any pain.

So it's a tough call for the coaching staff to let Paul play full time here, maybe he will be in minutes restrictions and that's why the -6.5 was the betting opening line for the Lakers.

Do you guys have plans to bet on the Blazers vs Nuggets game?

I think this game is quite interesting, though without Murray but Nuggets have proven they can also dominate the Blazers.
I think game 3 is just a very close game, both teams want to be ahead of the series and I'm seeing the home team here winning.
Putting in ML is good for me, or I would just buy some points.

This is weirdest match up in this round of the playoffs for me, and I likely wouldn't even put any bet on either team or the series itself, I have no clue whatsoever on what to expect or who to watch out for, both teams can get red hot or super cold at will. To pick a side here, I'll probably just toss a coin and go with that.

Agreed.  The only thing I can see is playing the over.  Portland home they will run and gun but as far as which side to bet this series is too tough I can't decide either way seems like a coin flip each night.  That and I can never bet against dame time.

My pick.

Game: Heat vs Bucks.

We all witness how dominant the Bucks in game 2, but I see a different story in game 3, it's a complete opposite of what we have witness last game.
If my crystal ball is still accurate, then we will celebrate after game 3.

Therefore my pick is Miami Heat ML.

I like the bucks here at almost a pickem. Heat had a strong run this year but the bucks just look like to much.  Leaning on the bucks the rest of the way down in this series.  As a hedge I'm playing the over too.  If the heat win I think they will need to score 120-130 points.

I literally agree with you on the Over,  I would have fancied the Bucks -1.5 but playing at home can provide a different form of atmosphere even without a full audience, I'll be going for the Over 224.5 @ 1.97 instead, It will be almost impossible to stop the Bucks from scoring so for the Heat to win, will likely have a high scoring fixture.
I will follow, this is a doe or die game for the Heat, it's hard to take risk although Bucks had a dominant performance in game 2.
We've seen a lot of this scenario in the past, so Heat could bounce back but the over is quite a safer bet.


I'll also be taking the Lakers -6.5; The line seem a bit too much, considering how the Phoenix Suns have faired over the first 2 games, but I don't see them causing an upset here in game 3, Lakers ML seem like the best bet for the night imo.

Good luck mate, Lakers could dominate the Suns, they have no answer on the Lakers' offense and the Lakers's defense are clamping their stars.

Might as well go with the under.

If only Paul is 100%, I would bet on them, but if he is not, then we might see the same outcome in game 2, and even worse for the Suns as the  Lakers are back at their home court and they are likely to get the first win if they will lose one here.

With how the Bucks played last game 2, if Heat able to adjust and change the tempo of this series then the chance still there for them, it's tough call though knowing that Giannis and the rest of the Bucks are really aiming to win this series, I'll be watching it during the live games and see if how things will work out, Personally, I love this pick of yours. Good luck!

Not sure if Lakers will allow this one in case that the whole team will play the same level that they've done the last time, if most of them will contribute and play each roles, Suns may have  hard time beating them at home.

We can always suspect, but we can't prove it. Undoubtedly those were a bad late foul calls, and you can't help yourself from questioning those calls.
Look at @danherbias07 he was able to pull a W with his bet with the help of those bad calls. It didn't happen once but twice, coincidence? I think not  Grin
Yes and like I said I already had given up on that bet but with just few seconds remaining Booker pulled 6 more points. Crazy!
It's questionable but let's not overthink about it. There is no way we will know the truth behind it.

@stadus, that was some brave pick there. I'm a bit scared on that so I'll pass. I'll just try an over score but if Heat wins it then it means it will be under.
Difficult choice.

Lakers versus Suns and now in Staples Center.
CP3 is probable but my brain tells me to take the underdog bet. Suns ML. Let's go Suns! Over 209.5.

Next games, I'm picking Lakers -6.5 and Heat +1.5

Good choice of spread for the Lakers, they could cover that as they might have a good momentum now. While the Heat will have a good chance at winning the game 3 at home.

I'm not sure with the Lakers though, but I love the Heat to win in game 3. it's a must-win for them otherwise that 0-3 score in the series would likely make them lose their confidence. I know Bucks played very well in game 2, but this is Heat playing at home, they need to win this.

Props to the Phoenix Suns for putting a good fight against the full roster of LA Lakers.
I was just wondering, those last second calls against the Lakers while Booker was making a 3pt fg were a couple of bad calls. I hope it doesn't have to do with gambling, putting the gap closer for the point spread.

What do you guys think?
That's a pretty far fetch to think that there is an inside job with making the game a close one, something like that might really happen but considering that NBA is a prestigious league, I don't think that they will be participating to such a small scandal like making the points much closer.

"Far fetched" is not the word, it contradicts your second statement.
We can always suspect, but we can't prove it. Undoubtedly those were a bad late foul calls, and you can't help yourself from questioning those calls.

Good win for the Knicks today as they have a higher chance of winning.

I'm sold out to the Knicks tonight, I was a fan of their fantastic run towards the end of the regular season and I believe they'd come through even in now in the post season...

I've got Knicks ML + Utah Jazz ML

I definitely would have tailed you on the last bet, if I only I had saw it earlier.

Good luck btw!

Looks like Knicks are a lost cause, no defence, no offence.
And Randle no no points so far again.

Good luck though.

Here's my plays for today:

Harris 15+; O213.5; 76ers -2.5 @1.82

Tobias Harris dropped 37 points in gm1 and i wouldn't be surprised if he does so again. The Wizards have a lot of undersized guards, Hachimura, who is decent but in his second year (so practically still a rookie), and Bertans, who can't play defense to save his life. WAS had one good quarter in gm1, but i don't believe they have enough to win even one game in this series.

Randle 7+ rebs; U227.5; Knicks +6.5 @1.78

Randle finished gm1 with 12 rebounds but had a terrible night shooting the ball, he's covered that line the last 9/10 times in regular season plus the three encounters between these two. As for the over, with two solid defenses on the floor, i don't see the total score cracking or coming close to 230, especially since we had two 40-point quarters in gm1. I'm also taking the plus points with New York because these two teams are evenly matched and virtually anything can happen, as i said before, i expect this series to go to a gm7.

I've gone with the three home teams to win at around 3.00, had a decent boost on that one, even though i'm not sold on the Knicks like everyone else.
