I'm taking the Pelicans, they have proven that they can beat the Suns on the road, so why not give it another try. Besides, Booker is still not playing, so it's the same squad the Pelicans beat in game 4. I'm very much tempted in taking the moneyline, they won last time and even beat the Suns by 11 points.

Yes their series is now tied 2-2 but I'm still going with the Suns here even if Devin Booker can't still play with the team, they still have CP3 laying the table for the team even if he is not who's making the most shots also I found that McGee have been good despite having long exposure so they might give him the time he needed later in the game. This 5th game will be much tougher as both teams already have knowledge what to do and when it needed, I can't deny but I think this series will reach up to Game 7. What do you think folks?

I don't know...  Even without Booker it seems like the Suns should be able to cover a spread that large...  Maybe not, but at home I think it's definitely more than a possibility.  It seems like Zion is not going to make an appearance this round, as his injury updates have been lacking outside of saying that he is playing 5v5 basketball scrimmages, just not with the team.  I think it's likely we see Booker before the end of this round, and the Suns could definitely use him back.  From looking at the box scores you can see just how much they're missing his scoring.  BI has been on fire for the Pelicans also.  I think if Booker is out the rest of the series, the Pelicans could upset and see round 2, where maybe we'll get to see Zion play.  Shamefully, I'd rather see Zion play this year than see my hometown team make the next round of the playoffs...

Yes they can still give good points even if Booker which is their biggest contributor is not with them since Game 2, but we don't know maybe he can be back in the Game 7 if their series will make that long. As of now, both teams are unpredictable because they are winning and also losing in the next game but only one of them will advance in the next round. We will see it soon if how would CP3 and the rest of the roster will do without Booker.

This is hard since both of their homecourt have been defended and defeated already and for Game 5 it is on Phoenix but I think it wouldn't matter even if it's their homecourt advantage. I think I'd analyze on player's availability in this upcoming match and since Booker isn't playing yet I guess for game 5 then it's likely with the Pelicans advantage. Even though they played already without him during the game 3 it was a contested one since they just lead by 3 and considering the game 4 wins of NO, they got a 15-point lead. Vote on the poll guys and to OP, bet for NO Pelicans.

If you're talking basketball, for tomorrow, I'll try some of my thoughts on just the two teams tomorrow Phoenix Suns vs. New Orleans Pelicans and Milwaukee Bucks vs. Chicago Bulls, I'll bet on the score.

First: Phoenix Suns vs. New Orleans Pelicans.
They have met on the field four times, both teams suffered the same fate 2 times losing and 2 wins.
What makes me doubt is the missing players like: Booker, Williamson, arić and Lewis Jr. That's what little there is doubt about, they are among the best basketball players.
Well, for the Phoenix and Pelicans teams tomorrow we have to see the winning score against other teams, both teams are strong, but I conclude that Phoenix is ​​69%.


For the Milwaukee Bucks vs. Chicago Bulls, tomorrow I'm inclined my belief for the Bucks 89%.

[Harkorede]

I voted for the Suns -6.5, It's foresee a hostile and tensed game, going by how game 4 played out, but I believe the Suns have a better team to play to through the adversity of not having their best offensive contributor.

I think the key area for the Suns would be how well Chris Paul is today, he was contained pretty well and was barely efficient offensively in the last game, and how well they are able to defend stellar performing Brandon Ingram, he has been the go to player for the Pelicans since game 2, together with McCollum, the Suns defense would definitely need to up their game.

true, even there's no booker in the team they still have potential to beat pelicans, in my view these situation is the same in the previous season that CP3 cant play because of injury and booker is the one that pushing the team to the finals. So now its time for CP3 to lead his team mate while booker can't play.

The only difference was Booker contributes more points especially in crucial part of the game but Chris Paul is very good as a leader and to calm his team mate in times when the enemy has the momentum. There’s a pros and cons but Booker gives more contribution than Chris Paul statistically wise. I wonder how far they can go on playoffs with this line-up.

Btw congratulations for Suns on taking back the lead on this series. They might finish this series next match.

The Pelicans had a bit of momentum in the third quarter but the lead was just too big for them to close the gap. We'll see if the Suns could keep up the same performance since the Pelicans were able to hold them off in their last home game. I honestly expect this series to go all the way since the Pelicans are still solid at home but it'll be impressive if the Suns manage to close it out next game.

The Suns are lucky enough that Booker is the one who was injured and not CP3 because his leadership is really effective and with him on the court makes the team knows more what to do because he is the one who is laying it for them while he is the one who assists them to get that shot and make it. But Booker though is still needed in the team because they will still struggle to find that entry points without him as he is the one who makes the most shots. Hopefully he will be back in the next game.

Looks like the Suns will gonna end up the hope of the Pelicans in their next games since they've done the right effort to execute the right play to beat them last night. Mikal Bridges finally took over the game 5 since Booker is not available in their last games because of an unexpected injury. I think this series will be concluded in game 6 for Phoenix Suns because the game last night was proof that they can outscore the Pelicans in their next game because they still have a star player that can play well.

[Japinat]

Bad choice, LOL.

Suns did the right thing by winning at home, Pelicans were able to make it a single-digit game but the Suns push harder in the last minutes of the game, resulting in a comfortable win and they were able to cover the spread. Sorry OP, better luck next time, maybe catch them in game 6.

That's alright mate, you don't win all the time but what's important is that you'll bounce back.
Let's look forward to game 6, there are no odds yet but I think Pelicans will have a better spread since they lost in the last game.

I suggest @OP that you just edit this thread for a Pelicans vs Suns series so you'll not create a new thread everytime.

[YOSHIE]

@Kelvinid, did you bet yesterday Suns vs. Pelicans, maybe I already said in the first post, my expectations of 69% matches won by the Suns 71% team is not much different, in the end the Suns won 112-97, actually in the first half it could be seen how the Suns team achieved success against the Pelicans, on the 29th the two of them will meet again, there is a plan.


Do you have any plans for the Milwaukee Bucks vs. Chicago Bulls, will be competing soon, I've also discussed above.
