Thoughts about today's game? I had this series go to a game 7, so obviously I have to bet on San Antonio to win, it's just that I don't really trust them. White, DeRozan, Mills and Gay all had a subpar game the other day and Nuggets are slowly getting their mojo back, playing much better in the last 2 games. I'm wondering whether I should go with ML or -3.0?

Unfortunately, neither of the spread was covered, as matter of fact of Warriors lost the game to the Clippers and the series is currently 3-2 still in favor of GSW though. I always feel GSW opponents are mostly underrated by bookies because the lines are just a bit crazy, Imagine a playoff team that came back froma 31 points gap to win a game still being offered 13.00~ Odds on ML, I didn't make any bet on the game though, I never would have anyways, except I was going against the odds.

Rockets -8.5 and GSW -14.5, are they gonna covered and end the series tonight?
This is tough because the spread is so high, I'm confident about the Rockets but I'm not sure with the GSW to cover as they could be overvalued.

I don't think we can call that a disrespectful shot as long as he made it and anyway the score was time so it wasn't like they would lose the game is that shot would have been missed. Lillard was full of confidence for the entire game and his mindset was focused on making that shot as it would be the shot for winning the final. Nothing you can do about it, the mistake was at OKC that they didn't scored on the possession they had before that shot since the pressure on Lillard would have been a lot higher which could have lead to a miss.

I think I'm gonna against the odds on that game, I'm definitely betting on Nuggets I'm not sure yet if I'm going ML or Handicap, but I'm sure not going to bet on Spurs.


I'm not sure if I'd call that disrespectful (although he's reaction somewhat was), but it was a cold-blooded execution like the PES commentator would say, I can't imagine how painful that short would have been for OKC fans.

Blazers couldn't cover the spread and it was a lot closer game then what I expected, nonetheless I'd never trade any winning bet for what Damian Lillard did last night. That shot will go down in basketball history as one of the most disrespectful, cold-blooded game winners ever. 👉⌚️

The GS and Rockets might end the series in 4-1 but I doubt the the Nuggets can end the spurs in 6, it might be a classic series going into 7.
Only is possible to go to game 7 and more entertaining to watch a game like this.

Thanks for the tip mate, I appreciate 
Unfortunately, it was only a close game.

Going into the series, I expected OKC to put up a challenge and win at least two games, but here we are.
I just hope GS, Nuggets and Rockets will just end their series already.

The last two loss.

Lillard end the series today, they won but failed to cover the spread but still congrats to them especially the man behind the win who carried
his team when CJ was foul trouble early in the game.


Westbrook made some crucial shots but have a lot of miss shots, thanks to the OKC bench who contributed well that resulted a comfortable lead for them but because of their lack of defense, The TrailBlazers rally by having their own run and take the game which supposedly they could win.

Good start for OKC, but like what both have said I also assume that Blazers will force this one up and win the series, they needed to make things happen as they don't wanted to give OKC a chance to bring this game at home and play with a do or die scene, the game still pretty early and for live game bettors everything can still be analyze before betting live.

@cloudbet, two more to go from your shared tips, the other two already won the game., good luck everyone.

I agree with the conclusion, the line is fair since Blazers are up 3-1 in the series and they pretty win convincingly against the OCK.
Closing the series is hard but Blazers here needs to prove they can as they are up to a big challenge once they pass the first round, however we can't say that Blazers would win easily in this game, OKC can win and they might bring this back to their home.

For OKC bettors, moneyline is good as it has better return, and if a sportsbook offers at least -3 for OKC, that would worth a take with a sure x3 odds.

Well...my opinion is probably as biased as yours as I like and root for Dame and CJ.  

OKC:

OKC had a grand total of 2 and a half good/decent quarters out of those 4 games where they outplayed Portland. Not much.

They shot terribly from 3 in those two away games respectively 15% and 17%, if you can't shoot the 3, forget about winning.

Russ is on the verge of losing for third straight year in the first round following KD's departure.

I don't particularly trust him in elimination games either, he is way too emotional and will force a bunch of bad shots. (I.e last year vs. Jazz)

PG13 is playing with a bad shoulder, I'm sure that is obvious for everyone. If your two best players are underperforming, nothing good will come out of it. I don't see Grant or Ferguson or anyone else for that matter have a monster game.

POR:

Dame and CJ are both playing great in these series, even if one is having a bad quarter/half the other one steps in and carries the team. They both have exploded for +15pts in a quarter. I also like what Aminu and Harkless are doing on the defensive end against PG13.


Conclusion:

I expect multiple flagrant fouls, possibly ejections and Blazers covering the -4 spread. (If I'm not mistaken bookies valued first two home games at -2.5 and now is -4, that is almost 2x and I don't think they are trying to trick us, but rather objectively pointing out which team is better).

Hey mate, What are your thought on Blazers - 4 vs OKC +4  ? I'm thinking of going Blazers again, but I guess favoritism and emotion is clouding my judgement, I could really use an opinion on this.

Odds indeed seem very suspect, unless bet was made when Bucks were down 12pts early in the first quarter. I was thinking of placing one myself when they were down 8 and Blake started hobbling around (props to him though, he basically played that game on one leg). I thought that -7.5 with 1.8 odds was a spread MIL could cover with 3+ quarters left. If I'm not mistaken they have over 40 reg season games with double-digit wins.

I have doubt on the legitimacy of the site, Bucks is -12.5 that game and they are giving x25 odds for bucks to win 21+, I think that's higher than the average odds. Though my sportsbook does not have 21+ but I just think odds are too high.

@paul00, I would appreciate if you could share what site you are using, I just want to test it since it has good odds.

That's some big odds man, and it's worth the risk I must say. The Greak Freak put up a big show, there's no stopping him.

Going big with the multi today:

- Raptors v Magic: Raptors -12.0 (1.97)
- 76ers v Nets: 76ers -9.0 (1.99)
- Nuggets v Spurs: Total points: Over 212 (2.07)
- TrailBlazers v Thunder: Trail Blazers -4.0 (1.95)

I`m just trying Bucks earlier because the odds are too high and I'm happy that I won but still regret the amount that I place bet on bucks. I hope the odds on bucks vs celtics will be that high I'm taking the risk if that will happen in game 1.

You're still up, something to be proud of, winning is not easy in sports.



They did, and I actually bet on the Jazz but just betting it for fun since I think Rockets will end the series in 4.
My bet was jazz to win +26 and did not hit, it could have been a sweet x100 return.

There comes the end to my winning streak.

Utah were able to extend the series, I saw only the first half of the game and during the first quarter alone the Houston Rockets looked really lost there just no chemistry and they lack communications, misplacing what should be easy passes, conceeding fouls and turnovers, Crowder was on show that quarter alone.
