2024 NBA Season

[arwin100]

The Heat did it.

As expected, game 3 will be theirs. And I think it's going to be the next games for the Lakers.

Game 3 is for Jimmy Buckets .
I thought that my small bet for them would be a lose but I guess that I was wrong. Anyway, this Game 3 is a must win for them or their willpower will be gone.

I like what Butler said in the last minute of the game. He said "They're in trouble".
Well, there is no swept that will happen and this just proves that they can fight with the full roster Lakers even they are short-handed. Congrats to them and to me .

Congratulations to your win mate.

We mostly thought that it's going to be a sweep made by Lakers but it didn't happened.

Game 4 for Heat again?  

Jimmy Butler extend the series and bring chance to Miami. It's hard work but the whole team accept the challenge.
They win it even without their 2 important players, news flows yesterday that Bam will be play today but Miami camp
didn't allow him and keep him in bench together with Dragic.

Game 4 bet for Miami is really a huge risk.

Things can change with or without their best players in the roster. As long as they have the heart to win the game, they'll play until the end of the game.

Good luck to both of them tomorrow.

All players have heart on the game that's why they are playing hard to get the champ but on game 4 for sure things will be different since for sure the lakers is hungry and seeking for revenge for the last defeat they've got, but what good thing their is Miami gain confidence right now and for sure the game 4 is exciting game to watch.

We all though that its a sweep but Miami prove us wrong and show their winning spirit.

Both of them are hungry for the win. Lakers lost while Heat is hungry to be par at the standings.

That sweep almost about to happen until Miami won. This time all of the fans will be balance and still going for Lakers but will not underestimate them anymore.

45 minutes of playing, Jimmy Butler surely takes a long sleep after the game.

He needs that kind of strong stamina again on Game 4. But as far as he is playing on that kind of minutes, his teammates should again do their best in the next game. It's exhausting. Now that Heat got explode, Lakers surely know what will they do the next game and that's what Heat needs to be prepared.

I wasn't able to watch the game, the only game I missed so far this finals, due to some busy works, but can anyone confirm that those Butler's 40 points are all inside the paint and perimeter? If that so, that was great. IIRC Shaq was the last time who did that in the Finals.

NBA players do scrims and practices longer than 45 minutes bro so not unless Jimmy Butler is experiencing any health or injury issues I doubt he can't play the full game without any subs, these is for other players in their prime as well as they workout day and night so I think stamina won't be an issue here. Heat isn't also a 1 man team where only Butler carries the whole team so I doubt he will be exhausted in just 1 game.

This comes to Game 7, all simply because the Heat have Pat Riley. The heat and magic of your special in-game spectrum will lead him to a well deserved game 7.
And incidentally with a spectacular ending in the last minute, to define the champion that will undoubtedly be the Lakers.
Cheers!

i do not see it that way, Miami won one match, but it will be very hard to win another one
Lakers won first two, this lose is because they were a bit relaxed in this match, but they know that losing another one would bring unnecessary complications in the series, and i think that they will not allow it, or that they will take really seriously next match to secure third win, it is not that far, tomorrow morning in Europe, will see what will happen, will not bet on this one, but expect a win from Lakers

For now, I also don't think that there will be game 7, but, if Heat will beat the Lakers in game 4 and even the series then I would think that it's going to be an exciting series where game 7 is likely to happen.

There are 2 reasons why the Lakers lost in Game 3.
1. Early foul trouble of A.D. let his performance go low drastically from around 30 pts in Game 1-2 to just 15 points in Game 3.
2. Turnovers of the Lakers as a team.

Winning another one will be very hard for the Heat since the Lakers will make an adjustments. I already put my bet on Heat on this Money Line. Risked a small amount and I'm kinda believe in Jimmy Buckets again .

Maybe or maybe not but I expect the Miami Heat will really put a good show in this Finals, it's a matter of overall team effort and I think Heat has the best chemistry on the court right now.

I can't understand, you said it will be hard for Heat to win the next game but you still bet on them. Isn't it should be the other way around?

Dragic talked about his game 4 chances and said it was a very low chance he could play. His foot is still hurting and that is why he can't come back, realistically he could be on the court and playing, you could give him some painkiller injections and make sure that he doesn't force that foot and bandage it etc etc to make it as numb as possible and whenever he gets benched you could spray it to make it even more numb and give him just limited minutes instead of how much he used to play.

However none of this makes sense because even if he comes back he is not going to be the same Dragic, he is going to play with maaaaybe 50% of he used to play, that is not something they really need honestly, I would rather see him at the bench rooting for his teammates instead of going out on court and playing horribly.

There's no chance in hell that this series goes to 7 games.  I'm personally shocked that the Heat were even able to win 1 game.  I don't think they will win another.  Props to Jimmy Butler for being the lone superstar on the team and being able to get this far  by himself ( without any other stars to be more specific ).  I sure wish my shitty ass Chicago Bulls wouldn't have gotten rid of him.

Hello guys,

Today's raffle I want to see Dragic, but I doubt, if he appears, unfortunately. Still Butler showed his real star power with 40 pts last match, but I believe Lakers gonna correct their mistakes. That's why I bet on Lakers today.

My bet

What do you think about today's match? GL!

Dragic wont really agree if that would be really suggested just for him to play.Painkillers might do but we know it temporal and we do know that if its forced then possible damage could happen
which might result into further damage or problem which will really be the reason for him not to play for a while.Theres nothing he can do but to take rest and let that injury healed up.
If he cant play then the best thing to be done is to cheer up with the team.We know his contribution towards the team but is there anything they can do? None.

I agree to his point that winning game 4 would be always on least chances.They might able to pull up that 3rd but doesnt mean that they will get the next one and so forth.

If not 100% healthy, I like him to rest instead. Miami Heat is already adjusting for the absence of their key players.

Dragic might not able to cope up with their usual strategy and it might give a problem to the team. He should just hope that Miami Heat will able to just extend the series until he feels 90-100% healthy (although I doubt he can still play the rest of the Finals).

..but I believe Lakers gonna correct their mistakes. That's why I bet on Lakers today.

Kind of not worth for me putting a bet on odds like that but if that's your decision, then hope for the best.

[rhomelmabini]

Bam Adebayo was expected to play this Game 4. Let's see what could be the difference right now and let's see if Jimmy Buckets will still say that "LA is still in trouble". I expect 5 was for Lakers and 4 is onto Heat.

[-CryptoViking-]

Another night, another match. This one I'm going to watch despite I'm from Europe and ti will be in the middle of the night.Hoping here that Miami can take this one and equalize and then we will see what Lakers are made of  if Dragic gets the time to recover fully to play in some games.

That's what we do if we are a  real fan of the NBA, we won't want to miss this game as NBA Finals does not happen everyday. You are rooting for the Heat? Nice, I'm hoping you are right and they will win so this series could possibly go to game 7, imagine the excitement of the Heat will come from behind.

I'm reading some meme's that Kobe died 41 so Lakers will end the series at 4-1, that means Heat won't win a game until the series ends.

Hopefully not gonna happen.

I'm not really sure if we can see Dragic in this series though, but Jimmy takes over the last game showing his potential again as a superstar in Miami, reminds me of when he was still in the Bulls uniform. Yes, Lakers need to correct their mistakes in the last game, but Miami will be ready so this game will be a close one.

What do you think about today's match? GL! 

Well all I can say is Good luck to you, others might bet on Miami Heat so everything is still up in the air for us gamblers.

That Miami Heat win is too much of a talk. Eventually, they now become a threat? Jobs not finished.

Miami Heat won but not because they outshine the Lakers. It's just that the Lakers are having a bad night. It's not the usual Miami Heat vs Celtics wherein all games are close. On that Game 3, the Lakers are undershooting and AD got foul trouble early.

That's not usual on Lakers so they will adjust to the next game. They become serious now as they are voicing out concerns in the locker room especially when LeBron shows unprofessionalism on the court and the poor performance they showed that night. AD speaks, Rondo speaks, they are all fired up and will come back on a different levels on Game4.

Lakers in 5. Not a fan of the Lakers but I have to admit they already owned the current series.

They are always a threat, and the win on Miami, it was actually Butler whom they are talking with.
Series is now 2-1, it's not far away for this game to be over, Miami won even undermanned so they can still pull out a win here.

They are a threat IMO.

That's how it is, you lose because the your team had a bad night and the other team are doing well.
A win is a win, no matter how they achieve t.

It's expected that they will adjust and for sure Heat have already anticipated that and they will do the same.
In game 4, we don't know who's gonna win but we have our bet.
