~Snip~
Marcus Smart and Al Horford didn't play though. So they are not complete when they face the Heat but they took a good lead up to the second quarter. And if they could have sustain that run, it's going to be a close match and who knows, maybe they can steal one game.

Unfortunately, Butler plays like he wanted to proved something against Tatum and the Celtics and he is unguardable.

Yes brother,well Marcus Smart is injured, maybe there is no choice. For this year's NBA I think Al Horford not playing will also make him very pensive. But support doesn't have to force circumstances, space and time. moment.when forced to be outnumbered and tough, I feel respectfully the Celtics are quite authoritative and I believe in their performance.
in the series maybe they will turn around or will bet to walk in place, burning again what to improve the celtics let's see

I am not sure about the match between Miami and Boston, can anoyone here give their opinion about tomorrows match? I see that Miami has a 1.5 odds while Boston have 2 odds but based on the performance from their last matches Boston celtics performs well on their last opponent but this would be a different match do you think the first win will be for the Celtics or Miami?

ya.ya.yo!

Its hard to tell on which of this team will get the first win on conference finals since both of them are good teams also we cannot compare each team because winning on their last opponent is not enough to know on which of them will on their first game. So much better if you choose what team do you like because for sure we can see a great duel of talents starting tomorrow.

Game 1 is very unpredictable, but even if Celtics will lose in game 1, it doesn't say that they will lose in the series. Remember, they lose in game 1 against the Bucks, but they bounce back to even the series and steal one game also on the road. Now, they are on the road, if they lose twice in a row, that's alright as long as they also win 2 straight on their home court to even the series.

Heat show dominance on game 1 and we can say that their rooster composition is quite good since they build good chemistry to defeat Celtics on that game, but even if they win they cannot still sit out and relax knowing they give a huge upset to bucks so most provably we can see a more eager Celtics to cover up their game 1 lose. I might bet on Celtics on game 2 since provably their adjustment will be so tight.

because Goldenstate Warriors ain't an easy team to bring down especially when they're playing at home.

The same goes for the Phoenix Suns arena where it's one of having the loudest audiences in the league. Phoenix Suns' winning rate in their home arena is over 90% but the Mavericks are able to still play well against their large crowd.

I'm sure Mavericks are already used to playing against the big crowd and they can expect it once they played at the Warriors' homecourt as we know how big the audiences are here and almost a big distraction already to the away team.

I guess every team are using to play on the road, but Dallas though seems to be a road team because they are not affected by the unruly crowd of the Suns fans.

So it's really up to the Warriors here, Dallas has nothing to lose in this series. On the contrary they will gain a lot of experience specially Luka. So it might not be an easy series for the Warriors, but with their experience, maybe they will win against the Mavs.

Experienced wise Warriors are surely superior to Mavs, but like what you have said, we don't know if what kind of surprises do Luka

and coach Kidd has to show up in this series. It's the mind from the coach and the executions from the players, especially Luka, who most

of the time creates the play and gets his teammates involve with their offense. I'm more on the side if what kind of defense both teams will

show us here how Warriors will limit Luka and how Mavs will take care of the splash bro and their cousin Poole. Wink

Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks

Quote from: ChiBitCTy on May 17, 2022, 08:43:03 AM

It’s been a pretty crazy playoffs in the NBA this season. My pick to win it all was originally the New Jersey Nets and we all know what happened there with a surprising first round knock out. After that I was pretty convinced that the Golden State Warriors would take it all down and still believe that to be the case. I am kind of shocked to see both the Celtics and Mavs to have made it this far but I just don’t think either has what it takes to win it all. But we shall see!

Celtics is a no-shocker to me because I predicted them and the Warriors to be facing in the NBA Finals and I'll stick with it even though they are down 10 as of this moment against the Heat in the 4th quarter with 8 minutes remaining.

The Mavericks is the one who shocked not only me but all of the people watching including the analysts as well. Until now, I can't move on on what Kidd said in the interview which is “A lot of people said this would be a blowout. Well, they were right” Cheesy

. Its surprising to see them until this point and with their victory against the Suns, there are some who are opting them as the winner against the Warriors.

Whatever happens, I'll stick with Warriors and Celtics facing in the NBA Finals and I'll pick Warriors as the NBA champions.

Yup, you're definitely right about that mate! Honestly though, I'm really seeing that they could upset the Goldenstate Warriors on this series because if they can exhaust the Phoenix Suns just like that after having a 0-2 run then they really have some chance to upset another favorite team this season.

Luka's average PPG in playoffs are off the charts already and that ain't easy to achieve. His consistency will indeed pay off this time with of course some help of his team.

Who knows, right? We will only conclude this series after we watch the games, but with how Mavs eliminates the Suns the chance is possible to repeat that and win the west finals, still early though and knowing that they will be facing a complete set of skills and talents a team who also have capabilities of turning things in favor on them.

I'm expecting to see another do-or-die series if Luka will have the same support from his team not only with their offense but mostly

on their defense,.

I agree! I know it's still premature to tell, however the chances will be good if they will be consistent like what they did on the Phoenix Suns. Surely there would be some adjustments first on the both teams and the Dallas Mavericks should prepare well this time because Goldenstate Warriors ain't an easy team to bring down especially when they're playing at home.

Yes, we can't say who's going to win in game 1. The advantage is on the winning team playing in front of their fans

Hearing a huge amount of cheers. They will be boosted with support coming from the people who love supporting the team.

Quote

Remember, they lose in game 1 against the Bucks, but they bounce back to even the series and steal one game also on the road.

That series is different, but we never know if how both the teams will comes up with plans and execute..

Quote

Now, they are on the road, if they lose twice in a row, that's alright as long as they also win 2 straight on their home court to even the series.

As long as they will bounce back, even they lose the first 2 games, they can still bounce back and tie it up at home.

They just need to work harder trying to win this one and finally be back in the world finals.

Dallas here is probably the biggest surprise in the playoffs, we don't expect that they'll beat the Suns and dominated the best team on their home court, that's unfair. However, people are still not sold with what Dallas have showed, they still believe that they will lose against the Warriors and that Warriors will win the championship.

Now that the last year's rival in the NBA finals has gone, I preferred new teams this time and I think the Mavs have all the chances to defeat GSW if they managed to pull out the same gameplay when they beat the number 1 team in the western conference but this is the conference final and not the same as the games they have won in the fast and I think this is the first time Luka managed to push his team up to this point, I really wanted him to win the championship since he might not get any chance to step back in this point in the future.

Luka was the talk of the town and it was really a shame that the defending Western Finals champs hasn't defend it. Well, the ball is round and Luka was just really amazing with every bucket he shot with a smile in his face. I think it won't be easy though to pull that out from the GSW's deadly lineup.

In the East, it was the same story in town and the Heat roster wasn't that easy to handle as well by the Celtics if they are still getting choked up during the 4th quarter just like what they did with the Bucks.

As much as I want to see the Mavs winning the championship again since Dirk, but on the contrary I'd really love to see the Boston Celtics succeed this time. I mean they have been working so hard since LeBron was still in Cleveland but they can't get passed on the ECF. Now, that they're facing Miami another tough opponent, I know they can make it.
Whichever team goes out to the Finals from the West, I'm pretty sure Boston can match them.

I was a Suns fan before and I always bet on them but Mavericks change my mind and impressed me on there last 3 fights. Suns show an early strong performance but Mavericks show resiliency on there tough games. They always manage to come back strong every time they have a severe defeat. I think they can handle GSW and probably they can force game 7 or 4-2 if they will maintain same level of performance while GSW choke like what they are showing on there previous matches against Grizzlies that they are outperformed on 3 points shot contest.

Miami Heat is my vote to win this 2022 Championship. The addition of Tucker is a boost to their defense and then Victor Oladipo getting his minutes back is to tie up with the speed needed for offense. Tyler Herro being the 6th man of the year leading the bench will bring out a big contribution.
I don't think there are teams more balanced than them.
All other 3 teams namely Celtics, GSW, and Mavs will lean with small ball play style. Bam Adebayo could dominate the paint both offensively and defensively.

If I'm being honest I had the mavs counted out first round, I thought they matched up oddly against the Jazz. This feels kinda like the year they won ot with Dirk. Wasn't buying in until they just kept rolling in the playoffs.

That's what I even noticed too at the majority especially when Luka Doncic is reportedly out from the first 2 to 3 games in the first round because of his unexpected injury a few days before the playoffs started. That boosts the odds of the Mavericks winning the championship. Others concluded already that Jazz will beat the Mavericks after the 1-0 advantage in Game 1 which added another boost from the odds of the Mavericks. But Brunson steps up when Luka is on a recovery period and later on, they beat the Jazz without even a big struggle.

Against the Suns, the same impression on the Mavericks that they won't stand a chance of beating the West's top seed but it didn't happen.

Now with 4 teams remaining, did anybody already put bets here on who will win the NBA title or still thinking?
