I still think the New Jersey Nets are the most like I to win the championship though the Celtics knocking them off in game one does give me a little bit of pause. If the Nets aren’t going to win it I think I’m placing my money on the Golden State Warriors. I just feel like when it comes down to it they’ve got too much fire power. The best thing though is that this is all debatable being that there is no clear cut best team like so frequently there was in years past.

I've seen how these both teams played well in their last game but most likely, my bet will go on Warriors as they become exceptionally good in their defense and created a very good atmosphere in their previous game. Somehow, the Warriors has become one of the most dangerous in the NBA today. But of course, there are still more way to go before they can be considered the champion, not to mention changes may happen so quickly when the last day of the playoffs comes.

It's too early to make assumptions that the Warriors will be the champion this season, but I respect about your decision and I cannot deny as well how good is the Warriors since the playoffs have commenced last week. They were inconsistent when the regular season is nearing to its end but that certain situation gives Jordan Poole the experience he needs to be in the position now.

No doubt that the Warriors will move to the 2nd round easily but in the next round I'm seeing that they are facing the Grizzlies and will also face the Suns before they can get into the Finals.

Even if the Nets is obviously one of the favorites to win this season, the Celtics who is not in the discussion on the regular season have proved that they should be also counted in and that two consecutive win they got against the Nets is surely means a lot for them. The Nets may be a tough team to beat but the Celtics have done it especially Jayson Tatum for his defensive mindset against KD even if he's more of an offensive player. There's still a lot will happen in the playoffs, even in round 1 there are already numerous upset and injury because of the intensity to win.

I like the way Tatum is doing now. His maturity and mentality to compete is more like Kobe, the person he idolizes. Even he's known for being offensive, he's now showing that he is also capable of doing defense, that stop with KD is a tough job but he's really doing everything to prevent KD from building good confidence.

2-0 now, but the Nets will be going home and will try to impress the fans.

They are the one who will be needed to be more aggressive from both defense and offense, a lot of things can still happen
with this ongoing playoffs. Roll Eyes

Yes, I agree. Jayson Tatum have totally matured recently because he quite know and have the right mindset what needs to be done even if he is more of an offensive player than being a defensive one. Guarding Kevin Durant is indeed a tough job to pull but he managed to do it and make him struggle so that he cannot contribute well for the Nets.

Tomorrow is their 3rd game at the Net's homecourt, we will see how things would go in the game.

Warriors move up to @7 now after a dominant win against the Nuggets, I believe it's still worth to take them at that odds.

Agree with you, Warriors @7 is still good to take. they played with great chemistry and their defense was really great. Maybe they had some problem during the regular season as they lost straight games but this is playoffs, their favorite time of the year, especially for Curry, KT, and Green.

I guess its true that Warriors turn back the clock in this NBA playoffs as they have seen with brilliant performances in their last game. Kudos to all the star players led by Curry that bring the Warriors into the championship contender status. Warriors may have lose their spot in the last season, but now they're starting to climb the highest peak once again.

Well they are definitely back to climb the championship this season, they deserve it as they really showed how good and competent they are against another top heavy teams in the league. They may have showed some weakness in the regular season because they are struggling to get their rhythm back but it's really worth it because Poole have given enough exposure to gain an experience and look at him now.

It would be better if you will place your bet on the Golden State Warriors now. Taking it too long, you might miss the best odds you can get from them. It's like missing the train. Generally, it's worth a risk so hope for the luck.

If they will able to sweep the Denver Nuggets next game, the odds for them might be lowered from @4 to around @3 because it means they are dominant.

We might never see an over @4 odds for the Warriors since they are showing good performance since the start of the playoffs. Unless they will be behind 0-2 or 0-3 the next round which seems impossible.

I am also Eyeing for Warriors now , because they completely showing the Champion Heart now, not like in the past conference in which they are being behind , Now the looks of taking back the Trophy Back to Golden state is knocking on our door.
I have different choice recently but now? maybe you are right that its better to risk in more possible winner than those who are in the edge of losing the chance .

That odds will certainly change once the Warriors beat the Nuggets in game 4. Let's check back the NBA winner odds later after all the games are finished.
right now, I think they are still making an adjustment and the once all games are concluded, we will eventually see the live betting odds.

We might but it's still not over, @3 is still good IMO, but better take it now than regret later.

Last day of playoffs would be totally a different thing but its true that we couldnt make out some early conclusions yet but basing off on what Warriors are doing then high chances or likely they would champ in this season.
Really good to see the old roster which had been intact once again.Some saying that defense isnt that good but i do actually see the different.IF there would be no injuries in one of their members
then its high chance that they would really get the spot but well its too early but they do really have that chance.

I am going to bet on the Nets to win game 3. Also, thinking of betting on the NBA winner now, I checked hours ago, the odds was like x19 for them to win the NBA Championship, I think it's possible as long as they will prove to beat the Celtics who are currently next to GSW in terms of favorite to win.

It's a high risk bet, but if you get it right, the earnings that you will take is more bigger compared with the odd during the finals.

At the early stage, we can choose good odds for us, but not only that, but we should also believe that the team we choose will win the championship. Of the proven teams, I see that the Nets and the Warriors have very enticing betting odds now to be the NBA winner. Of course, that will change after the start of the playoffs which is tomorrow.

I guess Warriors is now leading in the NBA playoffs, with all those big shots from Curry and Poole that made its last game really amazing and full of action. But of course, Nets is also very close to the Warriors performance status and changes will always be inevitable in the next series of games. So let's just expect the unexpected. At the end of the day, the best team will certainly the next champion of this season.

For me , in the east we have to candidates to thhe tittle, Miami and Philadelpia. And in the west we have only one clearly one step ahead of the rest, that is Golden State, but also in the west we have teams that can be champions if they improve a little like Phoenix and Memphis.

Like i said before in one past post mine , Denver 0 chance of nothing.

Before the playoffs started I was thinking the Nets would probably take it all this year. I don’t think that anymore. Unless Ben Simmons comes back and fits in, they’re going to struggle going forward. The Warriors though are playing great. They seem like they have a real chance this year to prove their dynasty was only on hold while their stars got healthy. The Bucks always have a chance to win with Giannis on the floor, but I think the Warriors match up well with them. As of today, I don’t think any teams outside of the Bucks/Nets/Warriors have a good shot at being NBA Champions.

Don't count out the Celtics. Whenever they play in the playoffs I always feel like they have a shot at the NBA Finals. And this playoffs again they are showing great effort to beat the Nets with 2-0. To be honest, my hopes for the Nets to play in the finals has died down a little bit after that game 2 loss. Though they still have 5 more games to win the series, but that could be a helluva run as the Celtics are showing good defense making it look like Durant was intimidated by their defense in game 2.

On the other side, I also feel like the GSW is going back to the finals again. They seem to have been enjoying the game at a very high level offensively. Are they really back?

Even if the Nets is obviously one of the favorites to win this season, the Celtics who is not in the discussion on the regular season have proved that they should be also counted in and that two consecutive win they got against the Nets is surely means a lot for them.

Suns is still the favorite to win a champion, however, Booker's injury may have affected their chances already. I doubt that they'll win without Booker, or even get into the first round, I'm afraid we might see a first round exit here, hopefully not gonna happen.

They can escape this first round for sure, CP3 can lift them up but moving to the next one would be very tough for them, whoever will be the next opponent will surely much heavier than NP. Booker though only got slight injury and the time frame to rest is good enough while they are still in this series against NP.

Still have many changes within gamblers pick if upset may take place moving to the next round.

Keep watching and enjoying every bet during this first round and hope that the team you bet on to be the champ will
move to the next round.

No doubt on that, CP3's talent to react in these kind of situations are already proven in the past years. He may not be the highest pointer or the biggest contributor on the team but we certainly know that he already have some plan on who will take the spot of Booker while he cannot play. Though this might be crucial as they will going to face the Pelicans in a back to back game without Booker.

As said, they can still figure out a way to win this series and may face the Jazz or Mavericks on the next round.

I might agree with the series match of Philadelphia Sixers and Toronto Raptors but on Golden State Warriors vs Denver Nuggets, I'm sure the latter still have the fuel to pump up on Game 3. I don't still consider Denver Nuggets as an easy opponent for the Golden State Warriors.
We will only see if the Nuggets are somehow not competitive and almost close to saying goodbye to their playoffs bid once they lose again next game.
Such unfortunate that it's not what is expected by most fans as the Denver Nuggets are one of the tough teams in the Western Conference.
Let's see, next game.

The most awaiting match is with the Suns and the Warriors too we know the capability of these teams to give to us a good game and of course the GSW vs Denver is one of the most exciting games, Jokic vs Curry, I already book the time as a spot to watch this amazing game this upcoming April 22. Still i vote for this for GSW we know how they play.

Not sure with that now, Booker seemed not coming back soon, here's the latest news by the way.

Suns guard Devin Booker out indefinitely with hamstring injury

Quote

Phoenix Suns All-Star guard Devin Booker is out indefinitely after suffering a right hamstring injury in Game 2 of the Phoenix’s first-round series with the New Orleans Pelicans, the team announced today. Per the Suns, Booker has a mild right hamstring strain and “there is no timetable for his return.”

Booker sustained the injury in Tuesday’s Game 2, which the Suns lost 125-114 to even the series 1-1. Game 3 of the series is Friday (9:30 ET, ESPN) and Game 4 is Sunday (9:30 ET, TNT), with both taking place in New Orleans.

According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Booker is “unlikely” to play in the next two games but could still return during the series.

Suns have to hold on, beat the Pelicans so they'll have Booker back in the 2nd round, at least.

As of today, I don’t think any teams outside of the Bucks/Nets/Warriors have a good shot at being NBA Champions.

I will admit I have to agree with you there but since NBA is NBA, we should always expect the unexpected.

Basically, we just based our analysis, purely on how deep the roster of a certain team is. Therefore, only those teams that have a deep lineup will probably have the chance to take the NBA title this year.

Let's hope no serious injury will happen to any competing teams today as it will be the turning point for some teams to advance.

How about the Phoenix Suns, aren't they included in that discussion? They could get the championship this season too. However, such unfortunate news have happened earlier on the Game 2 of Suns-Pelicans where Booker have been injured. There's no new updates if it's just a minor injury but judging on how Booker reacted after he got it, I can say that it's not that serious.

However I agree that the only healthy teams have the most chances to win the championship this season.

No doubt, injuries will end the chance of winning the title. It's been experienced before and by looking at how each team is competing right now, it's still tough to have a conclusion in regard to this year's world champion. Those mentioned teams do have
chances if no major injuries that will take place with stars and role players.

With a healthy squad moving to the next round, it will be a more interesting series to watch for sure.

Suns is still the favorite to win a champion, however, Booker's injury may have affected their chances already. I doubt that they'll win without Booker, or even get into the first round, I'm afraid we might see a first round exit here, hopefully not gonna happen.
